EAA Max Review

February 25, 2018 By Editor

EAA Max

EAA Max is an amino acid supplement made by Primeval Labs.

It’s designed to reduce muscle breakdown during workouts, as well as improve growth and recovery.

Primeval Labs is an American supplement company, based in Arkansas.

Ingredients Label

Active Ingredients

Essential Amino Acids

Essential amino acids (EAAs) are the amino acids which the human body can’t create on its own.

This means EAAs usually need to be obtained from whole foods that are rich in protein. Supplementing with EAAs is a quickly-absorbed, low-calorie alternative to protein from whole food.

Research shows that EAAs can significantly increase rates of muscle protein synthesis (1).

Electrolytes

Electrolytes are vital minerals that are often lost during exercise via sweat.

Supplementing with electrolytes can improve rehydration and improve endurance and recovery (2).

Highly Branched Cyclic Dextrin

Highly branched cyclic dextrin is a source of quick-releasing carbohydrates.

It can be used in a similar way to dextrose, to improve endurance levels during exercise (3).

D-Ribose

D-Ribose is a simple sugar which may reduce fatigue.

It also shows some promise for improving the production of ATP energy, however it may not do so as well as creatine (4).

Who Takes It?

Athletes wanting to preserve muscle mass, improve their energy levels, and improve their recovery time may benefit from using EAA Max.

How to Take

Mix 1 scoop (11.8g) with 300-350mL water, and sip throughout your workout.

On rest-days, mix 1 scoop in 300-350mL water, and sip throughout the day.

Side Effects

There are no major side effects associated with the ingredients in EAA MAX.

Pros

  • Low calorie protein source
  • Contains quick-release carbs and electrolytes for improved performance
  • Multiple flavouring options.

Cons

  • Essential amino acids are abundant in whole food already
  • Expensive.

Conclusion

EAA Max is a great amino acid supplement for intra-workout consumption, to reduce muscle breakdown and improve recovery.

It contains a greater range of amino acids than a BCAA supplement, and can be treated as a protein substitute.

It also contains a bunch of performance- and recovery-boosting ingredients, although the effectiveness of these is questionable.
