Buying EAAs: What You Should Really Pay Attention To
Why We Disclose Our Amino Acid Profile
Those searching for EAA products will find countless providers with big promises. But on closer inspection, a crucial piece of information is often missing:
How many amino acids are actually included?
Many manufacturers advertise with terms like "Premium EAA Blend" or "Amino Matrix" without disclosing the exact composition. For the customer, it remains unclear how much leucine, lysine, or other essential amino acids are actually in one serving.
If you want to buy EAAs, you shouldn't just pay attention to the taste, because when buying EAAs, it's worth looking at the amino acid profile
We believe: If you buy an amino acid product, you should know exactly what you're getting.
Full Transparency Instead of Marketing Terms
That's why we publish the amino acid profile of our EAA Mango Maracuja.
Per serving (10 g), you get:
- 2.25 g Leucine
- 1.125 g Isoleucine
- 1.125 g Valine
- 1.6 g Lysine
- 1.1 g Threonine
- 0.3 g Methionine
- 0.2 g Phenylalanine
- 0.19 g Tryptophan
- In total, each serving provides 7.89 g of essential amino acids.
Naturally Sweetened Instead of Sucralose
While many EAA products rely on artificial sweeteners, we deliberately use a combination of agave and stevia.
This creates a pleasant fruity taste without sucralose and without unnecessary additives.
When Do Amino Acids Make Sense?
A high-quality protein powder remains the basis of good protein supply. However, amino acids can be a practical supplement:
- before training
- during training
- in calorie-reduced diets
- when no protein-rich meal is available
- for athletes who prefer a light training drink
Our Claim: Honesty Instead of Marketing
We believe that high-quality sports nutrition doesn't need secret blends.
That's why we disclose which amino acids are included, do without sucralose, and focus on the essential: a transparent recipe with high-quality ingredients.
Because trust is not built on big promises, but on complete information.
Transparency doesn't end with EAAs for us.
We also publish the amino acids contained in our protein powders and their amounts per serving. This allows you to compare products not only based on their protein content but also on their actual amino acid composition.
At KG1 Nutrition, we deliberately choose EAAs and protein powders without artificial sweeteners like sucralose, aspartame, or acesulfame-K. Instead, we use natural ingredients and transparently disclose the amino acid profile and all ingredients.
