A member asked:
Is bcaa supplements harmful for 16 year old boy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The real question: Why does a 16 y/o need bcaa supplements? A balance diet should provide the amino acids needed. As a rule of thumb I believe that obtaining this amino acids through a balance diet and consulting with his physician is a more healthy alternative.
