Essential Amino Acids or EAA’s are required for the body to build new muscle tissue and help with cell repair when muscles are recovering. They are called essential because your body cannot produce them. EAA’s must come from your diet or supplementation.

EAAs have been shown in research studies to both improve Anabolic (Muscle Building) Exercise Response and increase Muscle Protein Synthesis.
