14 best amino acids

Continues the ranking of the best amino acids Mutant Amino - a complex that includes all the amino acid forms available on the sports nutrition market: free-form amino acids, isolated - L-arginine, L-glycine, L-ornithine; di-, tri- and oligopeptides of amino acids from hydrolyzed whey isolate, BCAA complex (L-isoleucine, L-leucine, L-valine).

Each serving (2 capsules) Mutant Amino contains 2 g of amino acids. It is recommended to take at least 1 portion before and after the training in order to fill the amino acid pool, the energy from which will be spent during the training. Thus, the muscles will not break down to fill the deficiency in amino acids. Although the minimum required dose depends on several factors - the purpose of the training (gaining muscle mass, drying or just losing weight), diet and weight of the athlete.

Carnivor Beef Aminos is a complex of amino acids derived from beef protein isolate, beef albumin concentrate and an immunoglobulin isolate, further enhanced with beef liver powder.

A feature and main advantage of this complex is that it is additionally enriched with creatine, BCAA, ketoglutarates of such amino acids as arginine, ornithine and glutamine, as well as alpha ketoisocaproate (KIC).

BCAA, along with glutamine, will promote rapid recovery; Creatine will increase strength; arginine in conjunction with ornithine will contribute to the production of growth hormone (somatotropin); and KIC will slow down protein breakdown.

1 serving (3 tablets) contains 3 g of amino acids. To feel the effect of the work of the amino acid complex, it is recommended to use about 3 servings per day (mainly in the near-training period).

High-quality product from the company Olimp. Anabolic Amino 9000 is an excellent amino acid complex, made on the basis of high-grade enzymatic hydrolysates of animal proteins, specifically whey and chicken (egg). This combination is as efficient as possible and is able to provide the body with a significant amount of the necessary amino acids.

The hydrolyzed form and use of chicken protein contributes to an increase in the biological availability of branched-chain acid (BCAA) and an increase in the concentration of individual amino acids: glycine 6 times, L-arginine 2 times, L-proline and L-alanine 1.8 and 1.4 times, respectively. As a result, their beneficial properties are enhanced, and the reception of the complex, in addition to improving the results and growth of muscle tissue, gives many positive effects:

• Improving the work of the central nervous system and protection from stress during heavy workouts;
• Stimulation of mental activity;
• Optimization of the cardiovascular system;
• Strengthening immunity.

For those who for some reason cannot eat dairy products, amino acid complexes have been created, the source of which are meat and meat products. The most popular option is beef protein.

Universal Beef Aminos is a mixture of beef albumin concentrate with beef isolate and Argentine beef liver powder. Each serving (3 tablets) contains 3 grams of amino acids. Their additional use will help to achieve a positive nitrogen balance, which in turn is a condition for an effective set of muscle mass. The main advantage of amino acid complexes from meat products is the complete absence of animal fats in the composition, which does not lead to an increase in the level of "bad" cholesterol. Also, this complex can be recommended to those who do not have enough meat in the diet and there is a need for an additional source of amino acids.

Affordable and, especially valuable, an effective amino acid complex based on lactalbumin and calcium caseinate. The additive contains the widest possible list of 18 essential, essential and semi-essential amino acids and has a good concentration of BCAA.

The composition of the Mega Amino 3200 is optimal for active people. It will be a great addition to a balanced diet, not only for supporters of power loads, but also for fans of other sports.

The use of the complex stimulates the anabolic process, gives energy, increases strength and endurance, prevents the destruction of muscles (catabolism) and facilitates their recovery.

Scitec Nutrition is a Hungarian mid-priced sports nutrition brand. Therefore, the amino acid complex Amino 5600 often becomes the choice of those who want to build muscle mass without spending much money.

The basis of the complex is whey protein hydrolyzate, which makes this product fast-absorbing. Amino 5600 also contains hydrolyzed sodium caseinate, which is also a milk protein, and the free-form amino acid L-glutamine, which will facilitate faster recovery.

Each portion of the complex (4 tablets) contains about 3.5 g of amino acids. The number of required servings depends on the amount of protein in the diet and the weight of the athlete.

Universal Nutrition is one of the most famous and popular brands of sports nutrition.The products of this manufacturer are in constant demand, since its use ensures good results.

One of the best products of Universal is Amino 2700. This amino acid complex consists of a concentrate and a hydrolyzate (protein split into amino acids) of high-quality whey protein. One serving (3 tablets) contains 6 g of protein, including 1.3 g of BCAA.

Depending on the weight of the athlete, his diet, goals, it is recommended to take from 2 to 5 servings per day - before eating, on an empty stomach, and immediately after training.

MyProtein is an English brand that produces high-quality sport nutrition. Essential Amino Acids amino acid complex is no exception.

It is already clear from the name of the product that it is a mixture of all the essential (essential) amino acids that a person can receive only with food (or additives), since such amino acids are not synthesized in the human body.

Each serving contains 9 g of amino acids, including almost 5 g of BCAA (of which 3 g of leucine). It is recommended to use 1 portion before or after training, stirring in water.

ON Essential Amino Energy is to some extent a universal product, which is a complex of free-form amino acids and natural energetics.

Key Features:

• The Green Energy Matrix, which contains green tea and green coffee extracts, provides energy for training and increases endurance;
• L-Arginine and citrulline act as stimulants for the production of nitric oxide, which provides the muscles with oxygen;
• A set of micronized free-form amino acids, including BCAA, is used as a building material for muscles, ensures their recovery and growth.

The most common form of release is instant powder with different fruit and berry flavors (less commonly, cappuccino-latte tea and mocha) packaged in 270 or 585 grams. The portion contains only 10 kcal, and therefore the drink obtained from the powder can be used, including, as a substitute for less useful traditional drinks or energy drinks.

Amino X is a highly effective complex of amino acids in the free L-form in the form of an instant effervescent powder. In addition, there is no sugar and caffeine, which does not limit its use by the time of day. The powder is completely dissolved, and the resulting drink has a pleasant taste. But the main thing is the optimal formula for muscle recovery after heavy loads and their further growth. After all, the basis of the complex are BCAA.

The composition is supplemented with three more amino acids: citrulline, taurine and alanine. They are responsible for optimizing the feeding of muscle fibers and for the proper formation of muscles. The effect of using Amino X is further enhanced by the presence of vitamin D in the composition.

One of the most affordable liquid complexes based on collagen hydrolyzate and vitamin B6. The additive has a high concentration of protein (41%) and a good rate of its absorption.

Taking Magic Amino Fuel allows you to stimulate anabolic processes, speed up metabolism and increase immunity. Collagen protein also contains amino acids that contribute to the effective restoration of joints, bone and connective tissue.
