Product Overview
What is IBCAA
Branched Chain Amino Acids (IBCAA's) are essential amino acids are the building blocks of proteins that are essential for muscle protein synthesis. There are 20 known amino acids, 9 of which are essential to regular bodily function, meaning these amino acids come directly from our diets.
IBCAA's include 3 branched chain amino acids; Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine. These three amino acids in particular deliver the greatest significance to muscle recovery*.
Benefits of IBCAA
During a workout the body’s muscle fibers are torn and damaged. Branched chain amino acids are essential within the diet whereby they are utilized by the body in order to enhance muscle recovery and repair*. Not only this, but during intense or prolonged exercise, the body can often breakdown muscle protein as a source of energy, however, the consumption of IBCAA’s may prevent this muscle break down whilst contributing to the growth and maintenance of lean muscle mass*.
The three essential branched chain amino acids found in Myprotein IBCAA’s are different from other amino acids, whereby when consumed they are digested directly in the muscle rather than the stomach. This means when our muscles have been stripped of all energy and nutrients, IBCAA’s can replenish stripped muscle stores*.
Our IBCAA formula also now comes in two fantastic new flavors, which can be easily mixed using water.
Who should take IBCAA's
IBCAA’s are suitable for generally active individuals,those involved in strength training or other intense/prolonged endurance exercise. Myprotein IBCAA's can be taken by those looking to have a boost of energy during a workout, recover faster after a workout, and build or maintain lean muscle. Consuming IBCAA's means you can get the increased level of IBCAA’s that is required for maximum recovery and to progress as quickly as possible*.
How to take IBCAA
IBCAA can be taken throughout the day, but ideally the best time to consume IBCAA is before, during and after your workout. Taking IBCAA around your workout will ensure your muscles have less chance of breaking down They can be taken by mixing a 5g serving with plain water or your preferred still drink and fruit juice.

Apple flavored medicine
I took advantage of july 4th offers and bought 2.2 lbs of apple flavored ibcaa's. Having read of myprotein reputation on labdoor I was excited for making my first purchase in quality supplements. So far I've tried with 8 and 12 oz of cold water trying to tame a little bit the flavor but no luck, guess I'm stuck with 200 services of great quality but bad testing aminos.Goes Well With:coldest water you can find, 8 oz, chug it in one sit
Horrible experience
Horrible customer service i ordered in Janurary and with all the "delivery problems" it came in May. The taste and mixability is not that good either.
Great Product
This is a great product for helping your muscles recover from lifting and for keeping on hard earned muscle when cutting down on weight. I usually use this product pre and post lift and I love it. It mixes great, the flavors are good and it does its job.
instantized BCAA
The difference between this product (ibcaa) and the regular BCAA is that it has been instantized so that it mixes easier. Should have been in the description. I recommend unflavored and adding some Stevia drops to avoid the artificial flavors, sweeteners, and colors which will be about 20% of the product lost. Money aint free, and this stuff aint cheap.Goes Well With:Water.
IBCAA
Mixes good and works good but that blue raspberry is like taking a nice dose of Tussin. I've only used water so far but maybe I can find a healthy juice to mask it.Goes Well With:Don't know
BEST iBCAA
Blue Raspberry is by far the best tasting iBCAA on the market. I've been in the fitness industry for over 20 years and this is not only a must have for what you get from the iBCAA's, but for the taste. If you're tired of drinking plain water and really need to spike it up a bit.... look no further!! Whenever the Blue Raspberry is in stock, I order the biggest bag available. You can't go wrong with this one and wish they offered a sample pack, because all of you would be hooked. MYPROTEIN... might want to think about that for the expo's :) Goes Well With:Citrulline Malate for an intra training drink and/or anytime of the day!!
Uses red dye #40
Uses "natural flavor" but the watermelon variety needlessly uses red dye for coloring. Won't use this product because of that.
worst flavor of ever had
the sour apple is absolutely disgusting but it mixed really well and i got a good deal on itGoes Well With:Hard Work!! lol
Great mixability, the worst tasting BCAA I've had though.
This is probably the worst tasting BCAA's I've had, it's not undrinkable but I've had both lime and orange versions of these and they did not taste great at ALL.
