Isoleucine is one of the amino acids found in BCAA-type supplements. It should be taken immediately after training to accelerate the building of muscle mass.
Effect:
Isoleucine protects muscle tissues from breakdown due to overly intense exercise. It also facilitates recovery afterwards and reduces the time needed to be ready for the next exercise. This amino acid supports the synthesis of proteins and hemoglobin, so it prevents anemia and the dizziness or shortness of breath caused by it. L-isoleucine also helps regulate blood glucose levels.
