Im sure this has been debated time and time again but its ahrd to find a thread on it. What is the 2018 consensus? Do they work for preventing catabolism/ increase protein synthesis?

Particularly asking in an instance where alcohol is consumed.

As far as I know BCAAs don't increase protein synthesis, but EAAs do.

Are you asking if BCAAs can conteract any negative effects of alcohol on protein synthesis?

They work well if taken combined with a full amino profile in scenarios that you are concerned with calorie restriction

dont think they will counter act the negative effects of booze tho.... stop drinking. lol
