Gram for gram, more efficient at triggering muscle protein synthesis than whey.
5g of free-form, leucine-enriched EAAs trigger muscle protein synthesis as effectively as a full whey shake — without the calories, bloat, or 90-minute digestion window.
*Backed by ISSN positional stand on amino acid bioavailability.
WHY BARE
Science you can feel.
Bare Aminos delivers pure essential amino acids in an optimal ratio. As free-form aminos, they require no digestion and reach your bloodstream in about 15 minutes to support muscle protein synthesis. It fuels recovery and performance without added calories or breaking a fast.
Free-form aminos hit the bloodstream in minutes, not hours. No digestion required.

Required for collagen and elastin synthesis. Supports tendon, ligament, and joint integrity.
L-PhenylalanineThe focus precursor300 mg+
Precursor to dopamine and noradrenaline — supports focus, mood, and motivation.
L-MethionineThe detoxifier150 mg+
Drives methylation and antioxidant pathways. Essential for liver health and recovery.
L-HistidineSignaller + protector100 mg+
Buffers lactic acid build-up and supports endurance. Precursor to carnosine in muscle tissue.
L-TryptophanRecovery + sleep5 mg+
Precursor to serotonin and melatonin — supports sleep quality, the foundation of recovery.

NOT SURE WHERE TO START?
Find your Bare protocol in 60 seconds.
Answer 6 questions about your training, goals and recovery — we'll match you with the exact Bare stack and dosing protocol for your body. No email required to see your result.
Whey requires 60–90 minutes of digestion before amino acids reach your bloodstream. Bare Aminos are free-form — they bypass digestion and absorb in 15 minutes. You also get 5g of pure EAAs vs ~25g of mixed protein per serve, with under 20 calories.
What is the source of EAAs in Bare Aminos?+
Our EAAs are produced via plant-based fermentation in pharma-grade facilities, then independently tested for purity and banned substances before bottling.
Is Bare Aminos safe for children?+
Bare Aminos is formulated for adults. We recommend consulting your healthcare provider before giving any supplement to under-18s.
What's the maximum amount I can take?+
Up to 3 scoops in a single serving. Most athletes use 1–2 scoops per session, with daily totals of 2–6 scoops depending on training load.
Is Bare Aminos hard on the kidneys?+
No. Free-form EAAs require less metabolic processing than whole-protein sources. As with any supplement, those with pre-existing kidney conditions should consult their doctor.
Can I take Bare Aminos when not exercising?+
Absolutely. EAAs support muscle maintenance, recovery, and lean mass retention regardless of training day. Many users take it daily, fasted-trained or not.
What's the difference between Bare Aminos and Hydrating Aminos?+
Bare Aminos is the pure EAA formula for muscle protein synthesis. Hydrating Aminos adds electrolytes and is built for sweat replacement during long or hot sessions. Many athletes use both — Bare for recovery, Hydrating for endurance.
