Amino Acid Supplementation Increases Lean Body Mass

Journal: National Library of Medicine

Link: Read Study

Summary: EAA supplementation of 7.5g daily improved Lean Body Mass and basal muscle protein synthesis in older individuals. The acute anabolic response to EAA supplementation is maintained over time and can improve LBM, possibly offsetting the debilitating effects of sarcopenia.

Essential amino acid formulations to prevent mitochondrial dysfunction

Journal: National Ceter for Biotechnology Information

Link: Read Study

Summary: EAA - BCAA balanced supplements might be valuable not only for healthy individuals undergoing to energy deficit (e.g., athletes) during strenuous exercise or training but also against diseases characterized by a dysregulated catabolic state or mitochondrial dysfunction, such as age-related disorders. 

Effects of essential amino acid supplementation on exercise and performance

Journal: Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition

Link: Read Study

Summary: The effects of essential amino acid (EAA) supplementation on skeletal muscle maintenance and performance proves that Muscle Protein Synthesis is stimulated by consumption of EAA supplementation.

Amino acids in sports nutrition 

Article: Science Direct

Link: Read Article

Summary: Studies reported and critically appraised in this review highlights the potential of amino acids as efficient anti-fatigue and performance enhancers, for ahtletes. It also appears that BCAA, citrulline and arginine definitely show anti-fatigue and performance enhancers in athletes.

Dietary Intake of Essential Amino Acids for Sustainable Muscle Development in Elite Male Athletes

Published: MDPI

Link: Read Study

Summary: This study highlighted that dietary amino acid composition is as important as the total protein intake.

Effects essential amino acid on muscle mass, architecture and maximal strength following heavy-load training

Published: National Library of Medicine PubMed

Link: Read Study

Summary: EAA ingestion resulted in greater changes in GM muscle architecture. These data indicate that EAA supplementation has a positive effect on muscle hypertrophy and architecture and that such a nutritional intervention seems to be more effective in subject having lower nitrogen balance and/or lower initial strength.

Essential amino acids and muscle protein recovery from resistance exercise

Journal: American Journal of Physiology

Link: Read Study

Summary:  Ingesting only 6 g of EAAs alone stimulates muscle protein synthesis after resistance exercise.

An oral essential amino acid-carbohydrate supplement enhances muscle protein anabolism after resistance exercise

Published: Journal of Applied Physiology

Link: Read Study

Summary: The EAA drink (6 g essential amino acids) increased arterial phenylalanine and insulin concentrations and muscle protein synthesis when ingested 1 or 3 h after resistance exercise. Thus the EAA drink promoted muscle anabolism, and the precise timing of ingestion in relation to the time after exercise (1 or 3 h) was not of consequence.

The efficacy of essential amino acid supplementation for augmenting dietary protein intake in older adults

Journal: National Library of Medicine

Link: Read Study

Summary: EAA-based supplements enriched with l-leucine offer an alternative strategy to whole protein sources to assist older adults in meeting protein recommendations.

Essential amino acids promote the reduction of adipose tissue and increased muscle protein synthesis during caloric restriction-induced weight loss in

Published: Springer Nutritional Journal

Link: Read Study

Summary: By design, the participants lost ~7% of total body weight and also shows an increase in the acute skeletal muscle protein.

Effects of essential amino acid supplementation on exercise and performance

Journal: International Society of Sports Nutrition

Link: Read Study

Summary: At rest, stimulation of MPS occurs at relatively small dosages (1.5–3.0 g) and seems to plateau at around 15–18 g.
