Transparent Labs BCAA Glutamine is the all-natural solution for active individuals and athletes looking to accelerate muscle recovery, reduce delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS), and support hydration. Each serving of this deliciously refreshing formula provides 8,000 mg of fermented, vegan-friendly branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) in the evidence-based 2:1:1 ratio, plus 5,000 mg of L-glutamine, 1,500 mg of vitamin C, and 1,000 mg of coconut water powder.
Unlike many BCAA supplements, our BCAA powder doesn't contain animal-derived amino acids, added sugars, artificial sweeteners (e.g., acesulfame potassium and sucralose), artificial food dyes, or unnecessary additives.
Key Features

What Does BCAA Powder Do? | BCAA powder supplies three essential amino acids known as branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) in their free form (hence, they are rapidly absorbed). The body cannot produce essential amino acids (including BCAAs) on its own, so we must obtain them regularly via whole foods and/or nutritional supplements. |
Is it OK to Take BCAAs Every Day? | Yes, taking up to 20 grams of BCAAs daily in divided doses (~5-10 g per dose) is considered safe. However, BCAAs are not intended as a sole source of nutrition and will not offset a lack of protein in the diet. |
Can I Take BCAA Powder with a Protein Shake? | Yes, you can use BCAA powder as a means of enriching any powdered protein source. |
How do BCAAs Compare to Creatine? | While BCAAs aid muscle repair and growth, creatine is primarily used to boost power and strength during high-intensity training. Both supplements can be useful for athletes and gym-goers. |
When is the Best Time of Day to Take BCAAs? | Ideally, BCAA powder should be consumed before, during, or immediately after workouts to maximize muscle repair and mitigate exercise-induced muscle soreness. BCAAs are rapidly absorbed and easy on the stomach, so drinking a BCAA solution during workouts won't weigh you down like a protein shake. |
When Will My Order Be Shipped Out? | All orders are dispatched the following business day. |
Does Transparent Labs Ship to My Country? | Yes, Transparent Labs ships worldwide (with exceptions due to fraudulent activity in specific countries). |
Does this Product Contain Nuts? | Yes, this product contains tree nuts (coconut). |
Fermented Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) 2:1:1 | 8,000 mg | Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are a group of three essential amino acids—L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine—that play an integral role in muscle protein synthesis, the process by which cells create new muscle proteins (which is necessary for muscle recovery and hypertrophy). While there are nine essential amino acids, L-leucine is widely regarded as the “master regulator” of protein synthesis [1]. Research suggests that supplementing with a 2:1:1 ratio of BCAAs (leucine: isoleucine:valine) post-workout can mitigate the severity of delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and decrease muscle damage markers, such as creatine kinase [2]. Additionally, BCAAs can help protect against muscle protein breakdown during weight-loss phases [5, 6]. |
Glutamine | 5,000 mg | L-glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in human muscle and plasma; however, it is a conditionally essential amino acid for active gym-goers and athletes since intense and long-duration exercise can deplete glutamine stores in the body [7]. Studies show that glutamine supplementation helps improve muscle glycogen synthesis, gut health, and immune function in active individuals, making it useful for muscle recovery and performance [8, 9, 10]. Clinical research has shown that glutamine also plays a key role in protein synthesis despite being a non-essential amino acid [11]. |
Vitamin C | 1,500 mg | Vitamin C is a ubiquitous antioxidant vitamin that, when taken in large doses (>1 gram per day), can reduce muscle soreness and bolster recovery between workouts [12]. It also plays a vital role in collagen synthesis and throughout the immune system, with evidence that it may reduce the severity and duration of upper respiratory tract infections [13]. |
Coconut Water Powder | 1,000 mg | Coconut water is one of the best natural sources of electrolytes and trace minerals, making it a perfect ingredient for replenishing and rehydrating during and after training. Coconut (Cocos nucifera) has been shown to provide a wealth of general health benefits, including, but not limited to [14]:
