- BCAAs are branched-chain amino acids, which are a group of three essential amino acids called leucine, isoleucine and valine. They are essential, meaning they can't be produced by your body and must be obtained from food. BCAA supplements have been shown to build muscle, decrease muscle fatigue and alleviate muscle soreness.
- Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. It’s the main component of connective tissues that make up several body parts, including tendons, ligaments, skin, and muscles. In a 3-month long study, over 20 men took 15 grams of collagen while participating in a daily exercise program. The men who took collagen gained significantly more muscle mass and strength.
