Optimize your workout results and build the lean muscle mass that boosts strength.* Thorne’s Amino Complex formula also enhances cellular energy production.*
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. They fuel muscle gain and other physiological functions, including enzyme production, hormone regulation, cognitive ability, neurotransmitter balance, metabolism, and energy production. As we age, we lose muscle mass, which can cause other health issues, so it is important to promote the growth of lean muscle mass. Of the 20 amino acids that make up protein, nine are classified as essential amino acids (EAAs), those the body cannot produce itself. Therefore, they must be consumed through diet and supplementation to support the body’s internal production of energy.
Thorne’s Amino Complex is a comprehensive blend of EAAs, which is high in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) – a group of amino acids that promote the growth of lean muscle mass and enhance muscle strength.*
EAAs benefit the body in multiple ways:
- Support muscle repair and recovery*
- Reduce muscle soreness*
- Benefit muscle strength*
- Support lean muscle mass*
- Increase cellular energy production*
- Promote healthy blood sugar already within the normal range*
- Support cardiovascular health*
- Strengthen connective tissue*
Who can benefit from Thorne’s Amino Complex:
- Athletes, to support training and fitness
- The elderly, who need to preserve muscle mass
- A person recovering from muscle injury or overuse
- Anyone needing readily bioavailable amino acids for protein building
Features of Thorne’s Amino Complex:
- Available in two flavors - lemon and berry
- NSF Certified for Sport®
- Lightly sweetened
- Mixes easily in warm or cold liquid
- Contains flavors and sweeteners derived from natural flavors
How to take Thorne’s Amino Complex:
Amino Complex is best taken after a workout to facilitate the recovery process.* It’s an ideal formula for active individuals, individuals managing calories, or anyone who has difficulty consuming whole foods or protein powders, particularly after heavy exercise. Because athletes need to know their supplements are trustworthy and compliant, every batch of an NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of more than 200 substances banned by many major athletic organizations.
