To bring the current BCAA vs. EAA debate more into context, it helps to review the actual difference between BCAAs and EAAs. The essential amino acids (EAAs) are a group of 8 amino acids that need to be obtained from the diet, since they can’t be made by the body. In order to synthesize new protein in muscle or anywhere else for that matter, only the EAAs are required, since the other (nonessential) amino acids can be made as needed.
Does the practice of supplying carbs and proteins during training (i.e. intra workout nutrition) work? The answer, it seems depends on who you ask. Although many people (including myself and John) swear by the practice.
In reality muscle growth itself is very much a process that involves one-step back to take multiple steps forward. We are constantly making-and breaking down proteins, and for good reason. Hypertrophy is the end result of a long process involving protein turnover; before actual muscle mass is added, we beat the hell out of the muscle in the gym.
While staying healthy is important to making consistent progress over time, the role of the immune system in this context is mostly indirect.
