If you're serious about muscle growth, you need to start your day in an anabolic environment. That means a serving of ALL DAY YOU MAY® right when you wake up. But what about that morning caffeine kick? The answer is simple - 5% Nutrition ALL DAY YOU MAY® Caffeinated! This delicious amino powder has all the benefits of our regular ALL DAY YOU MAY® plus 125 mg of caffeine!
5% Nutrition ALL DAY YOU MAY® Caffeinated - Ingredients
BCAA Blend – Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine – 6 Grams
One of the things that set our BCAA Blend apart is the innovative 10:1:1 ratio. What that means is that our BCAA Blend is leucine-heavy. That’s huge since leucine is the amino that stimulates protein synthesis. The other two BCAAs work synergistically with leucine to promote greater results than leucine can by itself. (1)
Essential Amino Acid Blend – L-Phenylalanine, L-Threonine, L-Histidine, L-Methionine, L-Lysine, L-Tryptophan – 205 mg
Studies show that protein synthesis is stimulated to a greater degree if all the EAAs are included. ALL DAY YOU MAY® was one of the first amino drinks to take advantage of this research. (2)
Conditionally Essential Amino Acid Blend – L-Glutamine, L-Carnitine L-Tartrate – 2,750 mg
As mentioned above, we were among the first to include EAAs - and we didn’t stop there! We also included CEAAs. What are CEAAs? They are amino acids that the body cannot make under certain conditions, such as stress. That includes the brutally tough workouts you engage in several times a week.
Glutamine
Glutamine plays a big role in recovery. It also helps prevent muscle protein breakdown. Plus, it works synergistically with leucine and the rest of the EAAs to stimulate protein synthesis. (3)
L-Carnitine L-Tartrate
We’ve included this version of carnitine in ALL DAY YOU MAY® Caffeinated because it supports testosterone production. It doesn’t get more anabolic than that!
Amino Acid Support Blend – L-Taurine, Raw Coconut Water Concentrate, HICA, Bromelain, Blueberry Fruit Powder – 960 mg
Taurine
Taurine is technically an amino sulfonic acid that’s usually found in pre-workouts and energy drinks. It pulls water into the muscles for insane water-based pumps and hyper-hydration! (4)
Coconut Water Concentrate
If you’re working hard, you’re sweating. You’re losing electrolytes. You need to replace the electrolytes you’ve lost, otherwise, you risk serious muscle cramps and dehydration. Coconut Water Concentrate is a complete fluid replacement ingredient. It contains vitamins and key electrolyte minerals. There are also antioxidants, amino acids, and enzymes for optimal hydration.
HICA (Alpha-Hydroxyisocaproic Acid)
HICA is a leucine metabolite that works synergistically with the BCAAs & EAAs in ALL DAY YOU MAY® Caffeinated to stimulate protein synthesis. Additionally, HICA binds ammonia in the muscles during hard training thereby delaying fatigue. (5)
Blueberry Fruit
This is one of the most effective antioxidants available. It helps your immune system combat workout-induced free radicals.
Bromelain
Bromelain is the digestive enzyme that’s found in pineapple. We’ve added it to ALL DAY YOU MAY® Caffeinated to help you digest the high amounts of protein you consume. You want the full benefits of the protein you take in, right? That’s why it’s here.
Intra-Cellular Buffer Blend – Beta-Alanine, Di-Calcium Phosphate, Sodium Bicarbonate – 2318 mg
The act of training is catabolic. It tears down muscle tissue and depletes glycogen stores. The muscles react to this by spiking lactic acid levels. This is "muscle failure". The ingredients in our Intra-Cellular Buffer Blend work together to help slow the buildup of lactic acid and delay fatigue.
Beta-Alanine – This ingredient is as famous for its harmless flushing feeling as it is for its effects on endurance. We purposely dosed it lower to avoid that unpleasant flushing sensation. Yet the dose still works effectively to buffer lactic acid.
Joint Support Blend – Glucosamine Sulfate 2KCI, MSM, Milk Thistle – 650 mg
You hit it brutally hard every time you walk into the gym. Your muscles aren’t the only thing taking a beating. Your joints are too – your knees, shoulders, and elbows especially. That’s why ALL DAY YOU MAY® Caffeinated includes a joint support complex and we’ve used some of the most powerful joint ingredients available.
Natural Energy Blend - 201 mg
This Energy Blend provides 125 mg of caffeine from green tea (50% caffeine) and Purcaf® organic caffeine from green coffee beans. Purcaf® is standardized to contain 95% caffeine.
Now you can have your caffeine kick and your muscle-building/recovery nutrients all in one delicious drink - 5% Nutrition ALL DAY YOU MAY® Caffeinated!
