Health
By age 50, most have begun to lose a significant amount of muscle as a result of dietary and hormonal changes and a decrease in activity. This loss of muscle continues to accelerate with age and by 65, 30% of Americans fail to eat the minimal daily recommended intake of protein. OptimalAmino®
provides the essential amino acids your body needs to stimulate muscle growth and reverse muscle loss.

Fitness
Getting serious about your fitness includes not only regular exercise and adequate rest but also proper nutrition to reach your goals. For many, meal planning and counting "macros" has become essential in reaching their fitness goals. OptimalAmino® provides a convenient, calorie-efficient protein replacement allowing you greater flexibility in meeting your protein target.

Elite
Competitive athletes invest heavily in training and nutrition to perform at the highest levels. To ensure adequate nutrition for recovery, most athletes supplement whole-food diets with animal and plant-based protein supplements. OptimalAmino® is rapidly absorbed in only 23 minutes and is 2-6x more usable for body protein synthesis than whole-protein dietary sources and supplements.

Comparing Apples to Apples
When comparing OptimalAmino® to other EAA supplements, it is most important to realize that not all EAA supplements are created equal. OptimalAmino® and only a handful of other EAA supplements on the market are based on a formula clinically-formulated to provide 99% utilization in repairing and building human body protein with only 1% waste.
But even comparing OptimalAmino® to the other brands that claim 99% utilization can be confusing as different serving sizes may be used - some of them use a serving size that is just half the size of ours. Be sure that you are comparing the price per gram of the EAAs themselves, not just the price per serving.
