User questions & answers

Question:	How many ounces of water does this need to be mixed with
Answer:	8-12oz depending on your taste preference
Question:	So I saw a concern posted about acesulfame which is mentions as a carcinogen. Why hasn’t manufacturer Nutrabolt responded to that
Answer:	I think most products contain things we think is safe but are actually carcinogenic to some degree. The best answer i can give is use these products sparingly. All good things in moderation because at the end of the day if you bombard your body with carcinogenic things, you will be at higher risk for cancer. Most man made things will hold some degree of carcinogenic properties. Even alcohol is actually poison, which is why you feel drunk when you drink too much. Yet, we still drink it
Question:	Does this contain splenda
Answer:	No, this product does not contain Splenda.
Question:	is this caffeine free
Answer:	There is no caffeine or “energy blend” in this product. Just hydrating properties.

2.5 g L-Leucine 1.25 g L-Isoleucine 1.25 g L-Valine 60 Servings 5 g Branched Chain Amino Acid Supplement True StrengthThe True Strength of Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs)L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine are commonly grouped together and referred to as Branched Chain Amino Acids, or BCAAs, because of their unique branched chemical structure. BCAAs are essential, meaning that they must be consumed through the diet, since the human body cannot make them from other compounds. BCAAs have long been used by strength-training and endurance athletes alike to support protein synthesis and recovery from intense training. Our Instantized BCAA 5000 Powder is made using a proprietary process that mixes easily and keeps the BCAAs suspended longer so they do not readily settle to the bottom of the glass. Because if you can't drink your BCAAs, they can't help your performance.

• Dietary supplement
• Easy mixing formula
• Blend of the three branched chain amino acids

User questions & answers

Question:	Is one serving actually enough? I heard you need 10g of BCAA before workout. One serving only has 1g
Answer:	2.5 grams of leucine is the proven amount needed to trigger protein synthesis. That's 5g total or 10 pills. I'm not sure why the doses on these are so small but I figure if an 80 pound asian girl needs 2.5g of leucine then going with more BCAAs would probably serve you better. That's an insane amount of pills but this is to avoid using the powder that stinks and tastes awful. Obi Obadike recommends 10g of BCAA pre and post Workout. 20g of BCAAs is 40 pills!
Question:	Is this BCAA Lactose free
Answer:	Yes it is, no problems what so ever just make sure you drink enough water when taking them so they end up in your stomach if not you might burp and might taste the BCAA powder :) hope this helps!
Question:	My canister was sealed, but the canister was only half full of powder. Is that normal
Answer:	Yes. It's normal. I am currently enjoying your second half as we speak. I would weigh the container as it's the only true way of knowing if you got shorted.
Question:	Are these expensive pills an improvement over drinking milk
Answer:	Hahahaha! "I don't drink milk, it's for babies" - Arnold Schwarzenegger

User questions & answers

Question:	Hi what its the expiration date
Answer:	I've had mine for over a month and the expiration date is 2/2018
Question:	How is the product so sweet if it has no sugar
Answer:	It has surcalose, which is an artifical sweetener that is 320-1000 times sweeter than sugar
Question:	Is this vegan friendly
Answer:	If it doesn't say vegan, then I would assume it is not. Most organic, gluten free, non-gmo have a label.
Question:	which flavor is best
Answer:	has anyone tried the tropic thunder or smash apple? i've tried... 1) blue raspberry- definitely my favorite! has the sweetness upfront and a nice raspberry tart aftertaste. i usually gravitate to blue sports drinks to begin with. 2) mango madness / watermelon- both good and exactly what they should taste like, mango and watermelon. 3) lemon lime- bought it for the lady and she loved it... not my flavor profile but it was well made. 4) strawberry kiwi- i felt this one was the hardest to adapt too. had too much of that bcaa powder taste. i purchased just because it was the cheapest one. you get what you pay for with these things. if you've never had any of these products i will advise they will all taste a little sweeter than you may be use to. I despise overly sweeten liquids unless we are talking about natural fruit juices (and even then i am cautious). I only put water, coffee, beer, wine, whiskey, and more water in my body... with that said I was able to adapt to the sweetness of these drinks (strawberry kiwi not so much). I recommend them, they have improved the quality of my workouts. I do mostly functional weight training (kettlebell, heavy club, sandbags) and some HIIT with dbs and bbs. For cardio i play some fairly intense beach volleyball 2v2... These products have helped my performance especially in the brutal sun at the beach. Also, I do recommend taking this product twice a day as they suggest. At first I did not, thinking that was a way to get the consumer to purchase more of the product. Yes and no... it made a difference when i stuck to two servings everyday. Do it if you can afford too.

Muscle Building Support

BCAAs not only support muscle growth, they also help you maintain the muscle you already have. BCAAs are essential amino acids, which means your body doesn’t produce them on your own. Therefore, you have to get them via supplementation.

Diet Support

Best BCAA also contains CLA. When combined with a proper diet and exercise, CLA may help prevent fat storage, encouraging the body to burn it instead.

Performance

BCAAs are used as an energy source in your muscles. Studies have found that participants who took BCAAs before a workout experienced increased strength and endurance compared to those who took a placebo.

WHAT MAKES BCAA ENERGY BETTER?

HIGHER PERFORMANCE: 5 grams of pure BCAAs (Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine) in a 2:1:1 ratio, the most researched and proven ratio to support daily muscle building and recovery.

ANYTIME ENERGY AND FOCUS: Green Coffee and Green Tea are used as natural Caffeine sources for cleaner energy and focus. Plus, Vitamin B6 and B12 help support energy levels through intense workouts.

ENDURANCE: Multiple modes of action help boost endurance levels including BETA-ALANINE supporting the buffering of lactic acid*, L-ALANINE supporting glucose production for usable energy to lengthen endurance, and BCAAs that are utilized as fuel during heavy training.

RECOVERY: Raising your level of protein synthesis higher than your rate of protein breakdown allows muscles to rebuild and recover effectively. Taking BCAA ENERGY post workout makes sure your body has enough BCAAs to support higher protein synthesis and the repair process, getting you ready to go harder your next workout.

ANTIOXIDANTS: Green Coffee and Green Tea plus Vitamin C's powerful antioxidant properties help support a healthy immune system.

HYDRATION: Drinking BCAA ENERGY during your workouts will keep you hydrated, with BCAAs reducing muscle breakdown while Taurine supports cell hydration.

Vitamin C

BCAA ENERGY contains 100% of the recommended daily allowance of Vitamin C, which has been shown to be one of the most important immune system boosters and essential for good health. Your body does not store or produce Vitamin C so it’s critical that you get it through your diet and supplements.

B Vitamins

BCAA ENERGY’s B Vitamin complex supports a healthy immune system through multiple modes of action including a high potency level of Vitamin B6 which helps support production of new red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body. B6 also helps keep the immune system working by supporting biochemical reactions in the immune system. Vitamin B12 is also used by the body to support normal production of red blood cells, white blood cells, and repair cells.

Antioxidants

BCAA ENERGY contains antioxidants from Green Coffee Bean, Green Tea and Vitamin C. Antioxidants are molecules that support and protect the immune system by defending it against free radicals, which are molecules in your body that can create oxidative stress and do damage to DNA, proteins, and fatty tissues in the body that can negatively impact the immune system.

Branched Chain Amino Acids

BCAAs can also be used by immune cells within the gut as a fuel source, which allows the immune system to regenerate itself more efficiently to support a healthy immune system.

FIVE REASONS TO TAKE BCAA ENERGY

1. BCAA ENERGY Helps Delay Fatigue During Prolonged Exercise so you can go stronger for longer. Muscle Fatigue is delayed because BCAAs are used by the body as an additional energy source during sustained training and exercise. BCAAs serve as an important energy source when carbohydrates become exhausted after prolonged exercise. When your body depletes the amount of stored glycogen it uses for energy during exercise, BCAAs can still work to power your muscles and help prevent fatigue.

2. BCAA ENERGY Helps Protect Muscle From Breakdown. BCAAs have been shown to preserve muscle mass under extremely catabolic conditions characterized by protein breakdown and muscle wasting. During exercise, muscle protein breakdown, and in particular, BCAA breakdown for energy is increased. By providing supplemental BCAAs, the body is less likely to consume its own protein stores. Think of BCAAs as protectors for your muscles!

3. BCAA ENERGY Helps Support Aerobic and Anaerobic Performance When Taken Regularly. BCAA supplementation supports both aerobic exercise capacity and anaerobic performance. As any athlete knows, a small increase in performance can mean the difference between reaching a personal best or not.

4. BCAA ENERGY Promotes Muscle Protein Synthesis which is a key factor in building and maintaining muscle. Leucine is the most important of the three BCAAs for initiating muscle protein synthesis which is required for muscle building. A dose of 2-3 g leucine is generally considered effective in stimulating muscle protein synthesis and is often referred to as the leucine threshold. For comparison to food, one large egg contains about 0.5 g leucine, and 5-6 oz of most meat, poultry, or fish sources will provide the recommended 2-3 g amount. BCAA ENERGY has 2.5 grams Leucine per serving, which equals the amounts found in a normal serving of meat or 5 eggs.

5. BCAA ENERGY Boosts Recovery by Reducing Muscle Soreness and Damage. Consuming BCAAs before, during or after exercise may reduce the level of muscle soreness felt after heavy training. Furthermore, studies have shown that BCAA intake reduces muscle breakdown that occurs during both resistance/weight training and endurance exercise. That means you can recover faster and have less muscle soreness between challenging workouts.

BCAAs are Essential Amino Acids

Meaning they cannot be made by the body, yet they constitute more than one third of the protein found in human muscle tissue. Since you have to get BCAAs through food or supplements, BCAA ENERGY is an easy way to add BCAAs to your diet anytime.

Increased Fuel

BCAAs provide an additional fuel source during training for working muscle, as the breakdown of BCAAs for energy increases during prolonged exercise. BCAAs enter the bloodstream and fuel your body rapidly, bypassing breakdown in the liver, and are readily taken up by active tissues (mainly muscle).

Muscle Building

Of the BCAAs, leucine has especially been shown to initiate muscle protein synthesis (building) and inhibit protein breakdown. This is key whether you are trying to build muscle, maintain lean body mass during caloric restriction, or reduce muscle breakdown during intense exercise.

Protect Muscle

BCAAs can play an important role in whether the body is in a recovery (tissue building) or catabolic (tissue breakdown) state. BCAAs can help protect your muscles against the catabolic effects of dieting! So, if you're following a Ketogenic diet, in a calorie deficit, BCAA ENERGY supplementation before or during workouts could make a big difference.

User questions & answers

Question:	hello, send to Ukraine
Answer:	Yes.
Question:	Is it ok to use as a pre-workout then again post for recovery
Answer:	The powder is stimulant free. We would suggest using either before or after training.
Question:	How is this as a post work out supplement vs cell mass
Answer:	I much prefer this over Cell Mass. I use it during my workout. I am literally never sore and I lift heavy with an increase in my 1 RM every other week. I have done 400 meters of weighted walking lunges and not been sore after. I also find I don't fatigue in my workouts now since I started drinking it during my workouts.
Question:	The Amazon supplied description of this product says the BCAA ratio is 2:1, HOWEVER, no where on the label of the actual product does it specify what the ratio is. What is the BCAA ratio
Answer:	The BCAA's are listed in the ingredients as a "Micronized BCAA Blend (L-Leucine, L-Valine, L-Isoleucine)". I can only suggest they are listed in order of the ratio listed: 2 parts L-Leucine : 1 part L-Valine : 1-part L-Isoleucine. Hope this is helpful.

User questions & answers

Question:	Obviously meant to replace a pre-workout. Wouldn't dare add to one. How does it compare to top pre-workouts
Answer:	This product does not fit exclusively into the pre-workout category. Because there are many consumers who don't want huge doses of caffeine, a 2-scoop serving of Amino Energy provides 100 mg of caffeine from natural sources. That's about what you get in one cup of coffee. This product is also more versatile than a typical pre-workout, and allows you to add more scoops to a larger volume of water to increase the level of caffeine and amino acid support.
Question:	is there any artificial colors and sweeteners
Answer:	Yes to all of them except the watermelon flavor - it uses beet powder for color.
Question:	Best flavor
Answer:	I really enjoy the "orange cooler" flavor. It has a rather smooth taste after it completely dissolves (which does take a bit of stirring to accomplish).
Question:	What is the best flavor
Answer:	I like Blue Raspberry but the only other flavor I've tried is the Iced Mocha, which also tastes very good, but I first tried it with coconut milk and I added collagen protein powder and I drank this 3 times that day and felt ill that evening, not sure why, but I've found that the iced mocha tastes just as good with water than it does in milk. And the water seems to go easier with my digestion and it doesn't make me feel ill. I don't put but a scoop of either of these in my water at a time though, but I'm 60 yrs young so I try not to over do energy drinks, but I sure do like them! Also, this type doesn't make my muscles sting like some energy pre-workout powders do, so I really like that a lot.
