BCAA Mango Sorbet | Refresh Your Summer Supplement Routine
Keep your supplement routine fresh this summer.
Made with just 4 ingredients, this delicious BCAA mango sorbet is bursting with fruity flavour, making it the tastiest way to stay topped up on your essential amino acids (and cool down post-workout).
BCAAs, or branched-chain amino acids, include 3 essential amino acids — leucine, isoleucine, and valine. These can’t be made by your body, so have to come from your diet.
They can be a really important addition to your training routine, as they help to increase the rate of muscle protein synthesis in the body,1 pushing you closer to the goals you’re working towards.
What better way to end a sweaty training session than with a scoop of ice-cold sorbet?
