Ingredients explained
L-Leucine
Leucine activates the mTOR pathway in muscle, which may signal muscle protein synthesis and support recovery after exercise.
Caution: May cause stomach upset in some people; taking with a beverage or shake can improve tolerance.
L-Lysine (from L-Lysine HCl)
Lysine supplies an essential building block for proteins and supports collagen formation and carnitine production involved in energy use.
Caution: High single doses can cause gastrointestinal discomfort; spread intake if sensitive.
L-Isoleucine
Isoleucine is used by muscle as a substrate for energy and may help signal muscle protein turnover during exercise.
Caution: May cause mild digestive discomfort in some individuals.
L-Valine
Valine is an essential amino acid used in muscle tissue for protein assembly and can serve as an auxiliary energy source during training.
Caution: Occasional nausea or stomach upset may occur if taken on an empty stomach.
L-Methionine
Methionine donates sulfur groups for methylation and antioxidant pathways and serves as a starter amino acid in protein synthesis.
Caution: Excess intake may increase homocysteine; use as directed and maintain a balanced diet.
How they work together
Leucine, isoleucine, and valine provide branched-chain amino acids that signal muscle protein synthesis while serving as an energy source during training. Lysine and methionine round out essential building blocks that support complete protein formation and connective tissue structure. The remaining EAAs help balance the amino acid profile needed for efficient muscle protein assembly.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: For adults only. Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. California Proposition 65: This product exposes you to lead, which is known in California to be associated with birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Who should be cautious: People who are sensitive to phenylalanine or on serotonin-related medications may need caution because the formula contains L-phenylalanine and L-tryptophan. Individuals with maple syrup urine disease or significant kidney concerns may consider discussing amino acid supplements with a healthcare provider first. Contains sunflower lecithin; avoid if you have a known sunflower allergy. Produced in a facility that handles common allergens including wheat, milk, egg, peanut, tree nuts, sesame, fish, crustacean, and shellfish. Since L-tryptophan is included, those on SSRIs, SNRIs, or MAOIs are recommended to consult a healthcare provider before combining with medications that may interact.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

Professional Grade Supplements
There are nine Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) required by your body to build muscle. Your body cannot produce these EAAs requiring the athlete to look to other sources such as diet or supplements.
ALLMAX Essential Amino Acid (EAA) delivers 9.25 g of all nine EAAs including 5,088 mg of BCAAs (in a 2:1:1 ratio) which are clinically proven to support muscle growth and recovery.
The Total Molecular Weight of ALLMAX EAAs includes both the active form of the EAA as well as the binding agent (HCl). We use the HCI form with some of our EAAs to improve solubility. The dosages listed on our supplement facts panel includes the active form of the EAA providing the athlete with 9.25 g of active EAA in every serving.
