A branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) is a complex of three essential amino acids leucine (0.723 g), isoleucine (0.400 g) and valine (0.474 g). Pink beans contain 1.597 grams of BCAAs per every 100 grams.
Creatine can be synthesized in the body from the three common amino acids glycine (0.354 g), arginine (0.561 g) and methionine (0.136 g). Pink beans contain 1.051 grams of these amino acids per every 100 grams.
