NutraBio Base Aminos

10 grams of essential amino acids including 6g of BCAAs at a 2:1:1 ratio, plus a 2.8g hydration matrix and 50mg AstraGin. Stimulant-free, 30 servings, fully disclosed.

EAAs, not just BCAAs — and the difference matters

This is the first thing to understand about any amino product.

There are nine essential amino acids — ones your body cannot manufacture. BCAAs are three of them: leucine, isoleucine and valine.

Building muscle protein requires all nine. Supplying three in isolation is like delivering three of the nine parts needed to assemble something — work stops when the missing pieces run out, and your body pulls the rest from its own tissue.

Base Aminos supplies all nine. That is what separates it from the BCAA-only products that dominated this category for a decade.

An honest note on the split

10g total with 6g of BCAAs leaves 4g across the other six essential aminos.

That is BCAA-forward, and it is typical of the category — our Intra Blast and Recover EAA pages sit at similar ratios. It is not a flaw, since leucine is the amino acid that actually triggers muscle protein synthesis and 3g of it (from the 2:1:1 split) clears the commonly cited threshold.

But it is worth knowing that "10g of EAAs" is not 10g spread evenly across nine. The full profile is disclosed, which is the point.

The hydration matrix is a genuine part of the formula

2.8g of hydration support with 475mg of electrolytes is a substantial inclusion rather than a token one.

Sodium is the primary electrolyte governing fluid balance and the one you lose most in sweat. Potassium is the main intracellular electrolyte and matters directly for muscular contraction.

That changes what this product is for. It is not simply an amino powder — it is something you sip through a session, where replacing fluid and minerals matters as much as the aminos do. There is also 1g of taurine, which draws water into muscle cells and works alongside the electrolytes rather than duplicating them.

AstraGin at 50mg is an absorption enhancer, researched in relation to amino acid uptake specifically. It is the standard dose.

Do you actually need an amino supplement?

We would rather ask than sell you something you do not need.

If you already eat enough protein — roughly 1.6 to 2.2g per kg of bodyweight — you are getting all nine essential aminos in abundance from food. An EAA supplement adds little on top, and whole protein brings more with it.

Where EAAs genuinely earn their place:

Training fasted, where nothing is circulating and you want to limit breakdown
Long sessions, where sipping aminos is far easier than a shake
Between meals in a deficit, at almost no calories
Anyone struggling to hit protein targets through appetite or schedule
Sessions where a protein shake would sit heavily — aminos are absorbed without digestion

If none of those describe you, buy protein instead. It is cheaper per gram and more complete.

Specs

Essential amino acids	10g, all nine
BCAAs	6g at 2:1:1
Hydration matrix	2.8g, including 475mg electrolytes
Taurine	1g
AstraGin	50mg
Stimulants	None
Servings	30
Flavours	Six, including unflavoured
Label	Fully disclosed, third-party tested every batch

The unflavoured option is genuinely useful — it goes into a pre-workout or an intra-workout drink you already use without altering the taste.

How our amino products compare

Recover EAA	14.4g EAA	Highest total. Real methionine dose
Intra Blast	10g EAA + glutamine, betaine	Most complete intra-workout
Base Aminos	10g EAA + 2.8g hydration	Best hydration support. Best value
XTEND	7g BCAA	BCAA only. Dual certified

Base Aminos is the one to choose if hydration matters as much as the aminos — long sessions, hot weather, or anyone who sweats heavily. Intra Blast is more comprehensive; Recover EAA delivers more total aminos.

How to take it

One scoop in 8 to 12oz of water — more if you are sipping it through a session.
Before, during or after training, or any time you want hydration support.
Particularly useful fasted, which is where EAAs have the clearest case.
Stimulant-free, so it stacks with anything and suits evening sessions.
Expect some foaming. Amino acids foam when shaken — let it settle rather than assuming something is wrong.

Who this is for

Anyone training fasted — the clearest use case for EAAs
People doing long sessions, or training in heat
Anyone who sweats heavily and needs electrolytes alongside aminos
People in a deficit wanting amino support at almost no calories
Anyone who wants all nine essentials rather than three BCAAs
People replacing a sports drink with something zero-sugar

Who this is not for

If you already hit your protein target, you probably do not need this. Whole protein delivers all nine essential aminos and more besides, at a lower cost per gram. We will say so at the counter.

If you want the highest amino total, Recover EAA carries 14.4g.

If you want glutamine and betaine included, Intra Blast is more comprehensive.

Not for anyone under 18, pregnant or nursing.

Stack it with: Base Pre-Workout and creatine. Nothing here conflicts with anything.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between EAAs and BCAAs?
There are nine essential amino acids; BCAAs are three of them. Building muscle protein needs all nine, so BCAA-only products are incomplete — fine when well fed, less useful fasted.

How much leucine is in a serving?
Around 3g, from the 6g of BCAAs at 2:1:1. That clears the commonly cited threshold for triggering muscle protein synthesis.

Is it mostly BCAAs?
6g of the 10g total, leaving 4g across the other six. That is typical of the category, and the full profile is disclosed.

What is the hydration matrix?
2.8g of hydration support including 475mg of electrolytes, plus 1g of taurine. Sodium governs fluid balance; potassium matters for muscular contraction.

Do I need EAAs if I eat enough protein?
Generally not. At 1.6 to 2.2g of protein per kg you already get all nine in abundance. EAAs earn their place fasted, on long sessions, or when protein intake is difficult.

When should I take it?
Before, during or after training — it is stimulant-free, so timing is flexible.

What is AstraGin?
An absorption enhancer researched in relation to amino acid uptake. 50mg is the standard dose.

Why does it foam?
Amino acids foam when shaken. Let it settle for a moment; nothing is wrong.
