Powder or capsule?
Powder works out cheaper per gram and makes it easy to adjust the dose – ideal if you mix amino acids into a drink or smoothie. Capsules are easy to take with you and have no taste. Most of our powders are single-ingredient: the pack contains only the amino acid named on the label.
For training and recovery
Creatine is the most researched sports supplement: creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise (the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3 g of creatine). The same group includes EAA – all the essential amino acids – as well as BCAA, L-glutamine, beta-alanine and L-citrulline malate.
For your evening routine
Glycine is a slightly sweet-tasting amino acid that many people stir into an evening drink. In the same range you'll find L-theanine – an amino acid found in green tea – L-tryptophan and 5-HTP.

Amino Acids — protein building blocks for an active and balanced life
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and essential components for normal body function. They participate in building muscles, tissues and enzymes, and in many biochemical processes in the body. Puhdas+ amino acid selection contains high-quality individual amino acids as food supplements, suitable for both athletes and supporting everyday wellbeing.
L-glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body, found especially in muscle tissue. It is popular for supporting post-workout recovery. L-arginine is a semi-essential amino acid that the body uses to produce nitric oxide. Taurine is a sulphonic amino acid found naturally in muscle and brain tissue and participates in several regulatory processes in the body.
NAC (N-acetylcysteine) is a form of cysteine with antioxidant properties. 5-HTP is a metabolite of tryptophan that participates in serotonin production. L-tryptophan is an essential amino acid that the body cannot produce on its own.
Who are amino acids suitable for?
Amino acid food supplements are suitable for athletes to support post-workout recovery, for people with active lifestyles to maintain normal muscle function, and for everyone who wants to consciously supplement their daily amino acid intake.
