White Lion Labs has been a part of many major sports nutrition categories since it started, although it has managed to elude one of the core spaces of the industry in amino acids to support muscle recovery and repair. Joining its two pre-workouts, protein powder, superfood formula, and many other health and wellness items, the brand has debuted the simply named Amino, although the ingredients and dosages included in this one are anything but simple.
Amino from White Lion Labs is an advanced performance, endurance, and recovery-powering intra-workout. While it doesn’t get too hefty on dose with EAAs, by way of 2g of the premium and branded Amino9 blend of all nine EAAs, again, there is a lot more to it.
Alongside the 2g of Amino9 blend, White Lion Labs Amino has a full 2g of the mushroom blend PeakO2, powering performance, a gram of taurine, another gram of betaine, as well as a gram of high-quality CocOrganic coconut water, and another electrolyte source in 625mg of pink Himalayan salt. The growing newcomer could have easily gone the straightforward route and put just EAAs in Amino, but it has done a respectable job of differentiating and separating itself.
The diverse selection of ingredients in the PeakO2 and Amino9-backed intra-workout, Amino, does bring with it a premium price of $49.99, which is certainly on the higher side of the category. To be fair, this is not any ordinary amino; it is an intra-workout, so it does demand the heftier cost. The supplement is available for purchase directly through White Lion Labs’ online store with the usual 30 servings a bottle, and it comes in the one Mixed Berry flavor.
