Frequently Asked Questions

What are essential amino acids?

Essential amino acids (EAAs) are amino acids that your body can’t produce enough of on its own, including leucine, isoleucine, valine, histidine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, and tryptophan. EAAs support muscle growth and recovery.

What are micronized free-form amino acids?

Micronized free-form amino acids are single amino acids that are already in a pre-digested form for faster absorption by the body.

Directions

Drink 1 can 15-30 minutes prior to your workout or any time of the day. Do not shake.

Warning

Go to coffee replacement!
With only 100mg of natural caffeine, no sugar, and 5 calories I can fast in the am and get the pick me up I need. Also adds some digestive assistance and electrolytes so it's great for the afternoon slump and doesn't make me feel over caffeinated. Both strawberry and grape are yummy too.

Amino Energy
Great product!! My son is the reason for the purchase and he definitely feels it helps with recovery. He usually drinks this product before he hits the court, and it has helped keep his endurance up and he doesn't feel so sore after a 2-3 hour work out. He has also consumed it after a work out and it seems to help with recovery.
