Description

Amino Complex promotes the growth of lean muscle mass, enhances muscle strength, and supports recovery.* NSF Certified for Sport®

Optimize your workout results and build the lean muscle mass that boosts strength. Thorne’s Amino Complex formula also enhances cellular energy production.* 

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. They fuel muscle gain and other physiological functions, including enzyme production, hormone regulation, cognitive ability, neurotransmitter balance, metabolism, and energy production. As we age, we lose muscle mass, which can cause other health issues, so it is important to promote the growth of lean muscle mass.

Of the 20 amino acids that make up protein, nine are classified as essential amino acids (EAAs), those the body cannot produce itself. Therefore, they must be consumed through diet and supplementation to support the body’s internal production of energy. 

Thorne’s Amino Complex is a comprehensive blend of EAAs, which is high in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) – a group of amino acids that promote the growth of lean muscle mass and enhance muscle strength.* 

Who can benefit from Thorne Amino Complex

  • Athletes, to support training and fitness
  • The elderly, who need to preserve muscle mass
  • A person recovering from muscle injury or overuse
  • Anyone needing readily bioavailable amino acids for protein building

How to take Thorne Amino Complex

Amino Complex is best taken after a workout to facilitate the recovery process.* It’s an ideal formula for active individuals, individuals managing calories, or anyone who has difficulty consuming whole foods or protein powders, particularly after heavy exercise.

Because athletes need to know their supplements are trustworthy and compliant, every batch of an NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of nearly 300 substances banned by many major athletic organizations.
