EAAs (Essential Amino Acids)
All nine essential amino acids in optimized ratios. Provides the complete building blocks for muscle protein synthesis without the calories of whole protein. Rapidly absorbed in free-form.
Projected serum levels — 10 g (≈ 10k mg), once daily
Maintenance schedule: 10 g (≈ 10k mg) once daily (oral).
Modeled steady state after ~1 days: peak ≈ 7.7k mg, trough ≈ 350 mg body load. Population-based estimate over 15 days for a reference dose at a 70 kg reference body mass — the interactive app scales curves to your doses, timing, and body mass.

Essential amino acids are primarily responsible for the amino acid stimulation of muscle protein anabolism in healthy elderly adults
Demonstrated that essential amino acids alone are responsible for the stimulation of muscle protein synthesis, while non-essential amino acids provide no additional anabolic benefit.
