L-Leucine Powder (Free-form)

Pharmaceutical grade ultra-pure for maximum bioavailability.
Free form amino acid with no fillers or additives. HPLC verified.

L-Leucine is an essential amino acid, meaning it can not be made by the body, and must be acquired through food or dietary supplements. Leucine is classified as a "branched-chain amino acid" (BCAA). It comprises about 8% of the total amino acid count in your body's protein structures and is the fourth most concentrated amino acid in skeletal muscle tissue.

L-Leucine stimulates muscle protein synthesis and may be the major fuel involved in anabolic (tissue building) reactions. This makes them especially important for body builders and other athletes in sports that demand explosive strength.

• Maintains nitrogen balance.
• Preserve lean muscle tissue.
• Supplies the body with energy when under stress.
• Preserves muscle glycogen.
• Enhances thinking abilities that can decline as physical activity becomes more intense.

The branch chain amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine enhance protein synthesis in liver cells and muscle cells and help promote muscle recovery after exercise. They contribute to energy production in the body by being oxidized in the cell’s mitochondria. Branch chain amino acids are used by body builders and athletes to produce an anabolic effect and assist in the repair of micro tears in muscle tissue that are a normal result of exercise. Leucine is thought to be the most effective BCAA for preventing the body’s burning of muscle stores for energy during intense workouts because it is converted to glucose more quickly than isoleucine and valine.

We guarantee our supplements to be the freshest and purest: Our powders and capsules contain only pure active ingredient with absolutely no additives. Other manufacturers, in an effort to keep costs down, dilute their products with cheap fillers and add chemical excipients to their products to speed up their manufacturing output. These practices cheat you out of the active ingredient. At NutraBio, we've perfected our manufacturing technology so that excipients aren't needed, that means no microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, silica or other fillers, just 100% pure active ingredient. NutraBio supplements are manufactured under the strictest standards producing the highest quality and purest supplements available anywhere.

quality, purity and freshness since 1996!

We manufacture in our own FDA registered and inspected GMP facility:

All ingredients undergo state-of-the-art analysis to insure zero tolerance for impurities.

Truthful and Clear Supplement Facts Panels - No BS Proprietary Blends:

A proprietary blend is a cheap gimmick used by manufacturers to hide the real truth about what's in their product. By listing a bunch of ingredients under one blend on the label, the manufacturer only has to tell you how much of the blend is in a serving while hiding how much of each ingredient is in a serving. They pretend to this to protect their secret formula, that’s bull, they do it so they can cheapen their product without their customers knowing. In the industry we call this “Window Dressing” the product the label looks good on the outside but there is nothing really happening on the inside. At NutraBio our Supplement Facts panels list the exact amount of each and every active ingredient in the supplement. No guessing, you know exactly what you are getting in every product we sell.

Purchase manufacturer direct at wholesale price:

Buy directly from the manufacturer and save. We cut out the middlemen and pass the savings on to you. With NutraBio, you pay the same low wholesale price that the chain stores pay. Did you know that most companies do not manufacture their products but use 3rd party manufacturers? Since we manufacture all of our own products we can control the quality and purity through the entire manufacturing process. We never sell old or near expired products.
