Description

Nine of the amino acids the body uses to build protein are essential: it cannot make them, so they must come from food. NOW Foods Amino-9 Essentials provides all nine in free form – no digestion needed – in proportions based on the requirements for adults set by the US National Academy of Sciences.

The powder is unflavoured and free-form amino acids taste bitter, so it is best mixed into juice or another drink.

All 9 essential amino acids, about 4.9 g per 5.6 g serving
Includes the branched-chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine
Sold by weight, not volume
