Product Information
Full details
AllMax Nutrition BCAA 2:1:1 is a premium, unflavored supplement formulated for athletes, bodybuilders, and fitness enthusiasts who need to support muscle protein synthesis and accelerate recovery. By providing the essential amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine in an optimal 2:1:1 ratio, it effectively helps reduce muscle breakdown and combat post-workout soreness. While the unflavored nature makes it highly versatile for mixing into any beverage, users must be prepared for the natural taste of raw amino acids if mixed with only plain water.

Troubleshooting
Powder is clumping inside the container
Exposure to humidity causes clumping. Keep the silica gel packet inside the tub and ensure the lid is sealed tightly.
Difficulty dissolving in cold liquids
Use a shaker cup with a mixing ball or high-speed blender instead of just stirring with a spoon.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, mix one serving (as indicated on the packaging) with at least 250-300ml of water or your preferred beverage. Use a shaker bottle to ensure complete dissolution, as BCAA powders can sometimes settle if stirred with a spoon. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity to prevent clumping. Always ensure the lid is sealed tightly after each use to maintain the purity and potency of the amino acids.
