Leucine can be used as a nutritional supplement, seasoning and fragrance enhancer, as well as to prepare amino acid infusion and comprehensive amino acid preparations, hypoglycemic agents, and plant growth promoters.
Leucine, as it is easily converted into glucose, helps regulate blood sugar levels. People with leucine deficiency may experience symptoms similar to hypoglycemia, such as headache, dizziness, fatigue, depression, mental disorder, and irritability.
The best food sources for leucine include brown rice, legumes, meat, nuts, soy flour, and whole wheat. As it is an essential amino acid, this means that the body cannot produce it on its own and can only obtain it through diet. People engaged in high-intensity physical activity and a low protein diet should consider adopting leucine supplementation. Although there are independent forms of supplementation, it is best to consume them together with isoleucine and valine. Therefore, choosing a mixed type supplement is more convenient.
