Most of your protein (steak, eggs, etc...) contains the BCAAs as intact aminos. Your FREE FORM intake is fine most likely
But yes, you can take too much FREE FORM. If you have depression symptoms or anxiety disorder, overloading BCAA's may worsen the condition due to their competition with other compounds in crossing the BBB and through other mechanisms.

Another is with Leucine / BCAAs and their potential oxidative metabolism upregulation.Last edited by in10city; 08-23-2008 at 04:59 PM.
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
