BCAA ratio

USPowders said:
What research on 2:1:1?

At 2:1:1, if you "MEGA dose" as most do to increase the leucine content, your valine and isoleucine content increases dramatically.

Our goal is supplying Leucine the star Amino without depleting the 2 other amino acids and contributing to glucose conversion while training.

Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't the studies showing BCAA's to be beneficial using the 2:1:1 ratio? Been a long time since I looked those up, but if I remember right. That's what people are talking about. No real studies that I remember for another ratio, but if you've got evidence of an 8:1:1 study maybe I missed it. I think you can find 10:1:1, and even 12:1:1 from some companies.

Leuicne is the cheapest of the three, or at least it was last I knew. Been a long ass time since I looked at any of that, price may have went up once everyone started throwing more leucine in the BCAA drinks?

The perfect ratio or the right ratio or whatever (similar to do you even need BCAA's) is one of those topics that seems to pop up on every board with high frequency. And no one ever agrees :)

Price has nothing to do wiith research but with that said, Leucine is the most expensive.

The research we're interested in is protein synthesis and it's on leucine.

I know this used the be the opposite case, but again probably changed once everyone started throwing a lot more leucine in everything. Supply/demand and the like :)

If you like to extend that compliment, I'll take it but that's giving too much credit. The research is very clear on leucine.

oh i don't disagree. i have used leucine (bcaas and full-spectrum aminos as well) for a very long time now, as you know.
huge fan.

and i didn't mean it as your marketing per se, simply the industry in general.

i will however compliment you on modern bcaas..solid product.

I have increased my leucine content in my diet also, taking more modern bcaas pre workout, I can say it is a strength builder and faster recovery. I know it works because that is the only variable in my diet that I have changed. Thanks Usp powders for bulk bcaa's :))
