Gall Pharma L-Isoleucine Capsules are a dietary supplement containing 500 mg of L-isoleucine per capsule. This branched-chain amino acid supports muscle metabolism and also promotes the regeneration and maintenance of muscle tissue.
Like leucine and valine, isoleucine is one of the branched-chain amino acids. These are often referred to as BCAAs (= Branched-Chain Amino Acids) and almost always occur in combination. L-isoleucine is essential for the human body. It occupies a special place amongst amino acids, not only for structural reasons but also because of its function. Like leucine and valine, isoleucine is important for the regeneration and maintenance of muscle tissue during physical exertion. BCAAs are also known as ‘stress amino acids’, as they play an important role in the body’s response to stress.
This amino acid performs the following functions:
- Source of energy for muscles: Isoleucine is present in high concentrations in muscle tissue and is essential for muscular endurance. The branched-chain amino acids are unique in that the skeletal muscles can convert them directly into energy.
- Stressful situations: Physical injury, hunger, peak performance, inflammation, fever, infections and other illnesses are all stressful situations for the body. BCAAs play a central role in balancing and maintaining vital functions. They are important in regulating protein synthesis and are therefore needed to reduce the breakdown of proteins in the body.
- Intense exercise, particularly endurance sports but also weight training, significantly increases the body’s requirement for BCAAs. However, supplementing the diet with L-isoleucine is advisable not only during exercise but also during periods of heightened psychological stress.
