Homemade BCAA Gummies

35,998 Views

Gummies are a popular snack. Homemade gummies made with BCAA provide the nutrients needed to help muscles recover faster after workouts or other physical activities. The amino acid compounds also provide an energy boost.

After a workout, muscle tissue undergoes breakdown and microscopic injuries. The tissue then goes through the “muscle protein synthesis” repairing process. During this phase, muscles become larger and stronger.

However, if simultaneously trying to lose weight, dieting slows muscle protein synthesis. This is where BCAAs enter the picture. BCAAs contain the amino acids isoleucine, leucine, and valine, which the body cannot produce but needs. The amino acid trio additionally competes with the amino acid tryptophan. Tryptophan converts into serotonin which induces relaxation and drowsiness. By eating BCAAs before and during activity, athletes feel energized while getting the nutrients needed for muscles to regenerate.

California Gold Nutrition BCAA powder is gluten-free, non-GMO, and soy-free. Gummies made with this BCAA powder provide vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids, and an energy boost.
