Isoleucine
Isoleucine is one of the essential amino acids
Promotion of blood glucose uptake into skeletal muscle without elevated blood sugar,
Suppression of gluconeogenesis in the liver,
It has effects such as promoting the oxidative utilization of glucose.
In addition to promoting growth and supporting nerve function
Liver function strengthening, vasodilatory action, muscle strengthening,
We also know that it has functions such as recovery from fatigue.
It is also required to form hemoglobin.
Since isoleucine has a branched molecular structure,
With valine and leucine with the same similarities
It is collectively called branched chain amino acid (BCAA).
How isoleucine works
Supports neural function
Vasodilatory effect
Suppress the rise in blood sugar
Enhances liver function
Required for hemoglobin formation
Foods high in isoleucine
Cashew nuts
broccoli
spinach
Asparagus
