L-Leucine is a branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) essential for protein synthesis and muscle recovery. It is a key ingredient in sports nutrition products, known for its ability to stimulate muscle growth and prevent muscle breakdown during intense training. L-Leucine is a cornerstone for formulating protein powders, recovery drinks, and energy supplements aimed at athletes and active individuals.
In addition to its role in sports performance, L-Leucine supports metabolic health by regulating blood sugar levels and promoting lean body mass. Its solubility and neutral taste make it ideal for inclusion in powdered and liquid formulations.
