Leucine supplements

[strongveganchef]

Hello! I am a vegan lifter and am aware of the stance you all have on this subject. I listen to all of your podcast I can and watch as much of the youtube content you put up as possible. On watching your most recent Seminar and hearing Jordan talk about leucine, my question is, if I am getting all of my protein from vegan sources ( soy isolates, pea protein isolates, both as powders and then seitan or wheat gluten ) should I be taking a leucine supplement with these meals? If the answer is yes, is there a brand you would recommend! Thanks for the advice.

I'd recommend taking a supplement with all Essential Amino Acids (EAA) with each meal. I don't have a particular brand I like for these, but there are plenty to choose from.

Heard that, thank you very much. I feel like a lot of vegans can't stand your straight-forwardness. I understand your stance and appreciate your advice. You never ever say "don't be a vegan" sure you razz a little and say its not most "OPTIMAL" for the highest level of gains. But never in any of your talks have i heard you flat out say don't do it. I appreciate it

It's like telling someone, don't be a certain religion or political affiliation. I don't think it's a good way to get through to people you know?

It's not at all man. I agree. My stance exactly, I do not try to push the way I choose to live on others, if you have question I'll answer them but I am not a "pushy" vegan.
