FAQs About Pure Encapsulations BCAA

Q: Does this help with workout recovery or is it more for muscle building? A: Mostly recovery, though it may also help preserve lean muscle while you're training. It has the three BCAAs people usually look for: 600 mg leucine, 300 mg isoleucine, and 300 mg valine per 2 capsules, or 3,000 mg total in the powder.

Q: Should I take the capsules or the powder? A: It depends on what you want. The powder gives you a larger serving at 3,000 mg per scoop, while 2 capsules give you 1,200 mg total. A lot of active people pick the powder, then use capsules when they want something easier to carry.

Q: How do I take it for best results? A: Take it between meals. For capsules, take 2 capsules 1 to 2 times daily. For powder, mix 1 rounded scoop into 10 ounces of water or juice.

Q: Why does leucine get so much attention in BCAA formulas? A: Leucine gets most of the attention because it's the one people usually talk about for muscle protein signaling. In this formula, it's also the highest-dose BCAA in both versions: 600 mg per 2 capsules and 1,500 mg per scoop of powder.

Q: I've heard BCAAs can upset your stomach. Is that common? A: Sometimes, especially if you take amino acids on a really empty stomach. I'd start on the lower end, see how you feel, and make sure you're mixing the powder with enough water.

Q: My doctor said to be careful with supplements while pregnant. Is this one okay? A: I'd check first. Talk to your OB or midwife before starting this one if you're pregnant or nursing. Same goes if you take medications or have any medical condition.
