Alpha Amino Watermelon
Cellucor
Overview
Alpha Amino aims to support hydration and muscle recovery through a blend of BCAAs, other EAAs, and electrolytes. However, the use of proprietary blends and relatively small amounts of key ingredients limit the potential benefits.
The Good
Provides a good dose of BCAAs (5g) in a 2:1:1 ratio, which is effective for muscle protein synthesis and muscle recovery.
Contains a variety of essential amino acids, supporting overall muscle health.
Includes electrolytes to support hydration, which can be very beneficial during and after intense exercise.
The Bad
Proprietary blends make it hard to assess individual ingredient dosages.
Contains artificial sweeteners (Sucralose, Acesulfame Potassium) and artificial colors (FD&C Red #40).
The amount of each EAA, besides the 2:1:1 BCAA blend, is not specified, making it hard to determine its efficacy.
