Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about this product
What is SciTec BCAA Complex Lemon 300g?
SciTec BCAA Complex Lemon is a 300g amino acid powder built on a leucine-dominant BCAA blend. SciTec adds L-Glutamine and L-Alanine to the formula, along with vitamin B6 as pyridoxine HCl and a lemon flavour.
What BCAA ratio does SciTec BCAA Complex use?
SciTec says standard BCAA products typically use a 2:1:1 ratio of leucine, isoleucine and valine, while the newer standard is 8:1:1. The brand presents BCAA Complex as using this higher leucine ratio, so less total powder is needed for high leucine levels.
What role does L-Alanine play in BCAA Complex Lemon?
SciTec includes L-Alanine in BCAA Complex Lemon to add complexity to the amino acid formula. The brand notes that alanine is second only to leucine in how often it occurs in proteins and is particularly concentrated in meats.
Does SciTec BCAA Complex Lemon contain sugar?
Yes. SciTec BCAA Complex Lemon lists dextrose, a form of sugar, as its second ingredient after L-Leucine. The powder is also sweetened with the artificial sweeteners acesulfame-K and sucralose and coloured with riboflavin.
Which vitamin is included in BCAA Complex Lemon?
BCAA Complex Lemon includes pyridoxine HCl, which is a form of vitamin B6. It is listed as the final ingredient, after the glutamine, alanine, sweeteners and riboflavin colouring in the SciTec formula.
How should SciTec BCAA Complex Lemon 300g be taken?
SciTec BCAA Complex Lemon 300g should be mixed and taken as the label directs, because the listing does not give a serving size. People who are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medicines should seek advice before use. Please consult your doctor before use.
