Description
L-Leucine is an essential amino acid that is broken down in to fat structures. As an essential amino acid it cannot be made by the human body and, therefore, must be consumed through food such as nuts, brown rice and whole wheat bread products or dietary supplements. In total, L Leucine is around eight percent of the total amino acid count in your body’s protein structures. It is also the fourth most concentrated amino acid in your tissue.
As one of the three essential BCAAs, L Leucine is essential to your basic health. The primary athletic functions of L Leucine are:
Helps preserve lean tissue.
Supplies your body with energy when under stress (i.e. when performing athletic activity).
Preserves muscle glycogen (glucose which is stored in the muscle tissue used to power your movements).
Maintains nitrogen balance.
Enhances mental clarity when performing intense physical exercise.
In a nutshell the effects of L Leucine in the diet are profound. It is the strongest of the BCAAs and is also what is known as a “limiting nutrient”. This means you must have enough L -Leucine in proportion to other amino acids in order for your body to make full use of what you eat!
If you don’t have enough L-Leucine in your diet your body will not be able to make use of the protein that you give it, regardless of how much protein you consume. More importantly unless you have enough L Leucine in your diet the money you spend on quality food and supplements could be wasted.
Specification
Suggest Use of L-Leucine
Add your preferred amount of water or fruit juice into our shaker. Then add 3g, shake and consume. Use twice daily. Best consumed on an empty stomach.
Note: We advise that all servings are measured using an accurate set of scales. While we make every attempt to provide an accurate equivalent measure using our Myprotein scoops, these are only approximate and are not a substitute for using a standardised measuring device.
Do not exceed the stated recommended daily dose. This product is a food supplement and therefore should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. Store in a cool dry place, out of the reach of young children.
Function and Effects
★ Protein Synthesis Stimulation:
L-Leucine plays a crucial role in activating the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, a key regulator of protein synthesis. This stimulation enhances the translation initiation process, leading to increased protein synthesis. Consequently, L-Leucine is essential for muscle protein synthesis and maintenance.
★ Muscle Growth and Repair:
As a branched-chain amino acid (BCAA), L-Leucine is particularly important for promoting muscle growth and repair. It contributes to the formation of muscle tissue and helps in reducing muscle protein breakdown, making it a vital component for athletes, bodybuilders, and individuals undergoing physical rehabilitation.
★ Regulation of Blood Sugar Levels:
L-Leucine plays a role in modulating glucose metabolism by promoting insulin secretion and improving insulin sensitivity. This amino acid assists in the regulation of blood sugar levels, making it beneficial for individuals with insulin resistance or those seeking to manage diabetes.
★ Energy Production and Nitrogen Balance:
L-Leucine serves as a significant source of energy, particularly during periods of increased physical activity or stress. Additionally, it contributes to maintaining a positive nitrogen balance in the body, which is crucial for overall protein homeostasis and optimal physiological function.
