How Do I Take Whey Protein Along with BCAA BCAA stands for Branched Chain Amino Acid and there are three important BCAAs – Valine, Leucine and Isoleucine. When you workout, your body burns calories and your muscles need protein to repair themselves. This is where protein (either natural or supplements) come in. You can take a protein shake sometime after your workout to regain the muscle strength and build muscle. There are different kinds of proteins – whey protein, pea protein, rice protein, quinoa protein, etc. and it depends on your choice. The answer to “Can We Take BCAA and Whey Protein Together?” is “yes, you can.” Your diet is also important. Don’t rely only on supplements as there is only so much they can help. Do have a healthy meal filled with natural protein sources like Dal, vegetable, etc. Each person’s protein requirement also differs based on their age, weight, activity, diet, etc. Always check with your nutritionist about how much supplement to take daily (scoops, etc.) some people take protein supplements with water while others take with milk. Milk can make you put on weight and can be hard to digest since it already has a lot of fat and carbs. If you are allergic to something – say Soy or Milk, then buy the product that doesn’t contain those things. Example: whey protein is made from milk and should be avoided by lactose intolerant people. Go through the list of ingredients to see if there is anything you can’t eat. You can also check out: Mudit Goel's answer to Which is the best Indian whey protein supplement?
