What does it do?

L-Leucine is one of the essential amino acids that the body cannot synthesize on its own, so it must be obtained through food or medication. It is primarily used as a nutritional supplement and is administered particularly to aid protein synthesis in blood and hematopoietic system-related diseases.

L-Leucine promotes protein synthesis in the body, supporting tissue repair and cell regeneration. Through this, it provides the nutrients necessary for the creation and maintenance of blood cells.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
