Frequently Asked Questions: Amino acids

What are essential amino acids (EAA)?

Essential amino acids are the 9 protein building blocks your body cannot produce itself: leucine, isoleucine, valine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan and histidine. They are found in every complete protein. As a powder or capsule, they are already in free form and don't have to be broken down from protein first. At PEAK you'll find them in EAA – TST, Yummy EAA and, as a vegan capsule, HBN – EAA Code.

When should I take EAAs?

EAAs are popular during training, in the morning or between meals spaced far apart – whenever food or a shake doesn't fit. Mixed with water, they make a low-calorie, refreshing drink for your workout. One serving of Yummy EAA provides 10 g of essential amino acids. If you already eat plenty of protein through meals and shakes, you don't strictly need EAAs – they are a convenient addition.

EAA or BCAA – which is better?

To build muscle protein, the body needs all 9 essential amino acids. BCAAs (leucine, isoleucine, valine) are only 3 of them. That is why EAAs are now considered the more complete choice. BCAAs remain popular as a light, inexpensive training drink, such as BCAA – TST in the proven 2:1:1 ratio. If you have to choose one product, go for EAAs.

Do I need amino acids if I already drink protein shakes?

Not necessarily. A complete protein such as whey provides all essential amino acids. Free amino acids are worthwhile when you don't want a whole protein: during training or in diet and fasting phases. At around 40 kcal, an EAA serving has far fewer calories than a shake. Individual amino acids such as beta-alanine, glutamine or arginine, on the other hand, are used for specific purposes.

What is the difference between EAA – TST and Yummy EAA?

Both provide around 10 g of essential amino acids per serving. EAA – TST is based on our Total Solution Technology, contains all 9 EAAs including histidine plus B vitamins and comes in 10 flavors. Yummy EAA follows the MAP formula (Master Amino Acid Pattern) with 8 essential amino acids and is especially tuned for taste, in 8 flavors. On the go without a shaker: HBN – EAA Code as a vegan capsule.

What are beta-alanine, glutamine and arginine used for?

Beta-Alanine is the precursor of carnosine in muscle and is popular with strength-endurance athletes. The typical tingling of the skin after taking it is harmless. Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in the body and is often taken after intense sessions. Arginine is a starting material for nitric oxide and the basis of many pump boosters.
