Thread: calories from BCAA

  1. #1

    calories from BCAA

    I drink about 6L of water daily, mainly in the form of BCAA beverage. i calculated that i intake about 60-70g of BCAAs supplements daily. Should i count them toward 250-300 calories?


    I know amino acids have calories in averaging 4cal/g however, not ALL amino acids can be converted via gluconeogesis to be used by the metabolism as fuel. i was wondering in what category do the 3 BCAAs fall. Calories or not?


    the BCAAs, are they 4cal/g?
