Features:

Leucic acid (synonymous with the term α-hydroxyisocaproic acid and the latter's acronym HICA) is a metabolite of the Branched Chain Amino Acids known as Leucine; leucine initially goes into one of two metabolic pathways (KIC or HMB) and then some of the KIC is further converted into HICA.

HICA is claimed to be an anti-catabolic and anabolic agent similar to HMB. The limited evidence that exists right now (literally one study in athletes and a mention of a pilot study conducted by the same researchers) suggests that there is benefit, but beyond needing replication this study is also confounded.

Although it would be imprudent to say that HICA is ineffective (which it does not appear to be) and similarly imprudent to say that it is worse than HMB or leucine, due to the lack of comparative data between HICA and HMB/leucine the question of 'which one to use' cannot be answered and we have no indication if HICA is better or worse than the other options.

HICA holds some promise for future research to tackle, but currently does not have enough evidence to support its usage as a supplement; it may simply be a more expensive and equally effective Leucine.

19+ years of experience on research & experiment;

5+ experts from famous universities & academy;

8+ years of experience in international sales & after-sales services;

Strategic Partnership with world-known big company.

After having played a great role in domestic market for years, we started to offer service to international customers from 2009. The major business consists of two parts, one is different types of organic amino acids minerals which could be applied in different industries, and the other is compound amino acids and proteins originally intended to provide raw materials to the former one. The plant is located in the eastern suburb area of Wuhan city in China.

In-house laboratory has already been built to ensure the quality for every batch of delivery. A certain sum of funds on the R&D for better technologies and new items has been invested every year and thanks to this, the product quality has been improved better and better and the manufacture capacity has been developed year by year.

Professors and experts from famous universities in Wuhan have offered very good support to the manufacture technology, which has ensured the quality of the outputs. A local third party laboratory, as independent quality supervision, has also served us for years to test the qualities as per request.

In past years, we have had good relationship with companies from the world, and we already had strategic partnership with some world-known big companies in this industry.

The plant is in good position to offer custom manufacture upon the request from customers, as the prolonging in the existed product series, or as trial production for some new product(s). Any such request will be warmly welcome.

During the past years, good relationships have been established with customers from all over the world and any new enquiry or visit is highly appreciated.
