Benefits of L-Leucine
L-Leucine provides many benefits to the body. It is effective for maintaining blood sugar levels and also increases growth hormone production. L-Leucine combines with isoleucine and valine to protect and provide fuel to the muscles, and also helps to increase your endurance level and boost energy.
Other benefits of L-Leucine are the preservation of lean muscle mass. This amino acid helps preserve muscle tissue, so that it doesn't break down as quickly during the aging process. L-Leucine can also speed the recovery process for muscle damage and skin injuries.
What is L-Leucine?
L-leucine is an essential amino acid, it must be ingested through dietary protein. Along with other essential amino acids, leucine helps maintain muscle mass
-- which has made leucine-containing supplements a favorite of bodybuilders and athletes.
A diet rich in the amino acid leucine
might help prevent the muscle loss that typically comes with aging. French researchers found that a leucine-supplemented diet restored a more youthful pattern of muscle-protein breakdown and
synthesis to elderly rats.
Main Function:
L-Leucine has many beneficial effects on sports performance.
It helps preserve lean muscle
tissue
it supplies the body with energy when under stress
it preserves muscle glycogen (glucose stored in muscle tissue used to power muscular contraction)
it maintains nitrogen
balance, and it enhances thinking abilities that can decline as physical activity becomes more intense.
