What are BCAAs and which amino acids do they contain?

BCAAs (branched-chain amino acids) consist of three essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. These are essential amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own and must be obtained from the diet.

How do I prepare BCAA powder?

Mix one serving with water in a shaker or bottle and drink during or around your workout. BCAA powder typically dissolves well even in cold water.

When is the best time to take BCAAs?

BCAAs are commonly consumed before, during, or after a workout. They can also be used between meals as an additional source of amino acids.

Who is a BCAA supplement suitable for?

A BCAA supplement is suitable for athletes and active individuals who want to complement their training programme with additional amino acids. BCAA amino acids are components of protein.

How should I store BCAA powder?

Keep the powder in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. After opening, use it within the timeframe recommended by the manufacturer.

What does the BCAA ratio (e.g. 2:1:1) mean?

The BCAA ratio indicates the proportion of leucine, isoleucine, and valine in the product. For example, 2:1:1 means twice as much leucine as isoleucine and valine.

About this item

Product: MST Beta-Alanine 500 g
Form: Powder

Ingredients (in Latin, descending order):
Beta-Alaninum

Daily dosage:
3–6 g per day. Recommended to take before training or during the day, dissolved in water or juice, to support endurance and reduce muscle fatigue during high-intensity exercise.

Product benefits:
Beta-alanine is an amino acid that helps increase carnosine levels in muscles. Carnosine acts as a buffer, reducing acidity in muscles during intense exercise. This helps prolong performance, improve strength, and reduce the sensation of muscle “burn.”
Especially suitable for athletes engaged in strength training, sprinting, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), or endurance training. Regular beta-alanine intake may help improve explosive muscle power, increase training volume, and support recovery after intense physical activity.
