L-Leucine is one of the three branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) along with L-Isoleucine and L-Valine. It is an essential amino acid that cannot be produced by the body and must be obtained through the diet or supplements. L-Leucine is a key component in the process of protein synthesis, which is necessary for building and repairing muscles and tissues.
In addition, L-Leucine is involved in the regulation of blood sugar levels by stimulating the release of insulin from the pancreas. This helps to transport glucose into the cells for energy production and prevents high blood sugar levels, which can be harmful to the body.
ABCO India offers high-quality L-Leucine for use in the production of supplements and functional foods.
