EAA – Protein Muscle Growth
Total grams of muscle build by dosage
Values were calculated from measured change from muscle fractional synthetic rate 3h post ingestion, assuming a muscle mass of 30kg. Calculated as described in ref1.

The tested effects of 3.6 g of our EAA formula on the stimulation of muscle protein synthesis. Older subjects (see Table 1) were studied before and after oral ingestion of the EAA formula.
Subjects were studied during a 5 hr fasted period and for 3 hr after ingestion of the EAA formula. Results indicate that 3.6g of EAA resulted in a significant (p<0.001) 0.056%/hr increase in muscle protein synthesis (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Muscle protein synthetic rates before and after ingestion of 3.6g of EAA. Thus, a small dose of our EAA (3.6g) formula can significantly increase muscle protein anabolism in older subjects.
