That is very true. "The ratios of the different amino acids in the dietary protein must be about the same as the ratios in the body tissues if the entire dietary protein is to be fully usable to form new proteins in the tissues. If one particular type of essential amino acid is low in concentration, the others become unusable because cells synthesize either whole proteins or none at all, as explained in Chapter 3 in relation to protein synthesis. The unusable amino acids are deaminated and oxidized" -Textbook of medical physiology by Arthur guyton" Having said all of that, there are some suggestion or speculations that bcaa can PREVENT muscle breakdown during exercise (I don't think anyone is suggesting it builds muscle because you need all the other essential amino acids to synthesize new protein, but suggesting it may prevent muscle breakdown a little bit is fairly reasonable opposition). The reason for that, when you exercise the BCAA in the muscle get depleted rapidly and by ingesting BCAA during workout, you burn the bcaa you ingested as fuel instead of the muscle bcaa. So theoretically the BCAA you ingested get sacrificed and the muscle bcaa get spared. Same reasoning applies for fat burning and insulin. In the presence of carbohydrates and insulin, your body utilize carbohydrates as primary fuel source instead fat. That is why insulin is called a "fat sparer" or "fat-sparing" hormone in the literature. Insulin stimulates glucose uptake virtually in almost all cells and there is no need to burn fat when excess glucose is available because the energy demands of the cell is already provided by the glucose through insulin. There are some evidence that BCAA can improve mental fatigue which enhance your perfomance during your workout. During workout BCAA in the blood drops which increases the ration of L-tryptophan/BCAA-quota. L-tryptophan increases seratonin which makes you more mentally calm and tired which is suboptimal for performance. L-tryptophan and BCAA compete for uptake over the blood-brain barrier and by taking BCAA during workout you can improve L-tryptophan/BCAA ratios and more BCAA get taken up then L-tryptophan, this decreases the seratonin levels in the brain which improves mental fatigue and there by perfomance. -"Advanced nutrition for universities by L. Abrahamsson, A. Andersson, G. Nilsson" Conclusion: So BCAA may improve your performance which then lead to better muscle building, but it's more indirect effect then direct effect on the muscle. More research is needed but some evidence are present.

The BCAAs especially leucine are potent stimulators of mTOR so will stimulate hypertrophy. Although the EAAs make up muscle, the anabolic or catabolic signalling will have a huge effect on whether muscle will break down or build up. mTOR from the BCAAs/Leucine is one such anabolic signal.
@pacojavo29784 жыл бұрын
I was just about posting the same clarification; coildn"t agree more with you. The muscle growth equation has three pieces: 1) Just enough, NO more, stimuli (training) so you can recover faster and give sooner another stimuli. 2) Good recovery (night sleep, naps, massage, hot or cold baths.....everyone has to find what works for their bodies) 3) Nutrition. Regarding nutrition, ALL supplements are the cherry on the cake NOT THE CAKE! They should be viewed as tools for complementing not replacing food. Yes, they can also be anti-catabolic as pointed out in the video, and I also agree that they DON'T build muscle by themselves on their own. They, specially Leucine, trigger and amplify the mTor pathway to increase the natural anabolism induced by training; but you need WHOLE food and a little caloric surplus in order to build muscle. The problem is that people like digested, unidimensional and simplistic answers. Regarding "burning them as fuel", the energy or stamina perceived does NOT come from the as energy providers but becayse of their effects on brain neurotransmiters. Hence the central fatigue theory.

How about the induction of protein synthesis? Do your research, Wolfe (2017) and Sousa Santos (2019) analysis showed that it stumulates protein synthesis, though its not effective if not taken with EAA's. Even if the synthesis is activated by BCAA's, if theres no other essential amino acids in the plasma it will not help, so that means its good to drink BCAA's together with protein or EAA's and post-workout, rather that pre-workout for those who what to gain muscle mass. Leucine apparently stimulates muscle protein synthesis after resistance physical exercise; however, as with other BCAA, the full range of EAA must be available in levels that will not promote competition for cell carriers or limit their action.

We need a study on a keto diet, after fasting, running treadmill while simultatneously measuring VO2 max and taking BCAA intraveinously. Then we might know if BCAA works. The benefit is BCAA can go into the muscle for energy without needing a meal or insulin release. Great if you are going from one hard workout to the next without time to recover, or if you are cutting cals to lose body fat.

It’s not a miracle drug like steroids, but it’s definitely a viable option if you’re trying add 5 lbs of muscle. Also, They’re really helpful in maintaining muscle when reducing calories during a “cutting phase”. Now, there is a debate about the differences between BCAA and taking a full spectrum amino acid supplement, just in my own personal experience the BCAAs work a lot better.

I dont really understand Dr. You are saying, that all the descriptions on the uses and benefits of Both BCAA's and or EAA's are false? For example, they do not, promote muscle synthasis? Thats a big statement.

BCAA's can cause problems like prediabetes and insulin disergulation. That's because insulin is an anabolic storage hormone that responds most accutely to the consumption of BCAA's. If you've got a family history of Type II diabetes, your best bet is to get most of your protein from plant sources like beans or mushrooms, because they are lower in BCAA's.
