SAN Performance Leucine 200 gram

Mono-component product Performance Leucine from the manufacturer SAN contains in its composition the only active ingredient - leucine. It is one of the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), which is the main stimulator of muscle mass growth. This effect is due to the connection of leucine with the target of rapamycin in mammalian cells (mTOR) - a signaling intracellular complex that is activated in the presence of a large amount of leucine or ATP in the body, after which the formation of muscle cells begins.

SAN Performance Leucine is:

• 5 g of leucine in each serving;
• Quick-dissolving powder for easy assimilation;
• stimulation of muscle growth;
• Increased recovery speed.

It is known that the consumption of a large amount of protein saturates the body with amino acids, which are necessary for the growth of muscle mass. However, it is worth clarifying that some essential amino acids affect the formation of new muscle cells to a greater extent than others. Leucine is such an amino acid.

Leucine is one of the BCAA amino acids, the unique property of which is the ability to stimulate muscle protein synthesis. In fact, it affects the growth of muscle mass 10 times more than any other amino acid. This effect has been repeatedly studied in scientific laboratories.

One of the studies, published in the Journal of Nutrition, claims that leucine, entering the body, activates the mTOR intracellular signaling complex. This complex sends a signal to the cell nucleus that the environment in the body is suitable for the formation of new muscle cells. It was found that the more leucine is in the body, the more active mTOR is, therefore, the muscles grow faster.

In addition, studies have shown that adding a small portion of leucine to the regular diet in combination with regular training helps to gain lean muscle mass much faster, as well as reduce the percentage of body fat. The latter effect is due to the fact that leucine stimulates the production of growth hormone in the body, which helps burn excess fat for energy production.

The SAN Performance Leucine complex will help stimulate the formation of new muscle tissue much faster than any other amino acid. Each serving of 5 g of leucine will accelerate the growth and regeneration of muscle cells, which will make the body more muscular and toned. Leucine in the product is presented in the form of a fast-dissolving powder, which contributes to its assimilation as quickly as possible, therefore, an almost instantaneous effect on the mTOR signaling pathway, which gives the command to start the synthesis of muscle cells. And thanks to its effect on the hormonal background, leucine also contributes to the reduction of adipose tissue.

Composition of one portion (1 teaspoon – 5 g):

• L-Leucine - 5 g

Recommendations for use:

Take 1 teaspoon of powder (5 g) daily with a meal or add to your favorite protein shake. When storing, do not expose the product to heat or freezing. Store in a tightly closed jar in places with low humidity (up to 65%).
