Optimum Essential Amino Energy + Hydration 30 serve
Optimum Nutrition Essential Amino Energy is the all-day amino supplement built for athletes who train, work, and live on a schedule. Each serving provides 100mg of natural-source caffeine (green tea and coffee bean), 5g of an amino blend for muscle recovery support, and a 440mg electrolyte complex — all for around five calories and zero sugar. The low caffeine dose makes it flexible enough to use pre-workout, intra-workout, as an afternoon energy lift, or post-workout when you still want something in a glass. A formula that's been trusted by Canadian athletes for years, now in six fruit flavours.

Best for: Athletes who want a light, flexible energy and amino drink they can use at multiple points in the day — pre-workout, intra-workout, or afternoon. Ideal for those who don't need maximum caffeine and want something less heavy than a full pre-workout formula.
Not ideal for: Those needing a comprehensive pre-workout with pump ingredients like citrulline or beta-alanine — Amino Energy is a light energy and amino formula, not a full pre-workout stack. High-stim athletes may find 100mg caffeine too moderate.
