Electrolytes + EAA – combo of 9 essential amino acids and 4 electrolytes, drink with natural flavour, must‑have for the gym
Who will benefit most from our drink?
EAA are more effective than BCAA
for muscle synthesis 📈
According to recent research, BCAA alone are nowhere near as effective as EAA for building muscle, despite what the fitness industry claims [3]. Moreover, some studies suggest that BCAA may have a negative impact on insulin resistance [4], whereas EAA show no such negative effects [3].
Essential Amino Acids (EAA)
Branched‑chain amino acids (BCAA)
Hydrates the body more efficiently than water 💧
Some studies suggest that drinks with electrolytes can support more efficient hydration and replenishment of minerals than water and improve performance and recovery, with effects depending on the composition, timing of intake, and the user's condition [7].
