Your Daily Performance Boost
EAA Profile
Free-form EAAs are absorbed quickly (often within 20–40 minutes) to efficiently fuel muscle recovery.
Rapid Absorption
Free-form EAAs are absorbed quickly (often within 20–40 minutes) to efficiently fuel muscle recovery.
Biotin Support
Contains 100% of your daily recommended biotin, promoting normal energy metabolism.
Our formula follows a 5:1:1 BCAA ratio, significantly higher in leucine compared to the standard 2:1:1 ratio, to better support muscle protein synthesis (MPS).
Strength, Energy, Longevity — EAAs at Work
Essential amino acids (EAAs) are key players in supporting your body’s cellular energy and muscle strength. Among them, the branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) — leucine, isoleucine and valine — shine for their role in fueling workouts and helping you stay active. These nutrients go beyond fitness, providing support for healthy aging and cognitive performance, making nutraMetrix Tower+ Essential Amino Acids an ideal choice for anyone seeking to perform their best at any stage of life.
Biotin & EAAs United
Our premium 5 g EAA blend is expertly formulated with biotin to help ignite your energy metabolism and support vibrant health. Biotin — a vital B vitamin — is a powerhouse nutrient, playing a key role in breaking down amino acids and supporting your body’s energy production. This water-soluble essential nutrient ensures your biotin-dependent enzymes function at their best, helping your body unlock the full benefits of amino acids to support a healthy immune system and overall wellness. When life brings extra stress, your body needs more amino acids — and Tower+™ is here to deliver, fortifying your metabolic and immune health to help you thrive every day.

Frequently Asked Questions
What products pair well with nutraMetrix Tower+™ Essential Amono Acids?
nutraMetrix Tower+™ Essential Amino Acids work well alongside GoTrim® weight loss products and Tower+™ sports nutrition products. For additional support for healthy collagen production, you can pair it with Pure Collagen+, a flavorless powder supplement. Tower+™ Essential Amino Acids can also be added to foods like yogurt or smoothies to give your meals an extra boost.
What is Net Protein Balance (NPB)?
Net Protein Balance is defined as the difference between muscle protein synthesis (in which new muscle proteins are created) and muscle protein breakdown (the breakdown of muscle proteins) in the body.
What is an essential amino acid?
Essential amino acids are those that are not produced or synthesized by the body. There are nine essential amino acids that our body must acquire through supplementation or diet to function properly: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan and valine. Each essential amino acid carries out or contributes to a specific function in the body.
What are the key functions of the nine essential amino acids?
Histidine contributes to immune health and healthy histamine neurotransmitter production and supports tissue repair and protein synthesis.
Isoleucine supports hemoglobin and energy production and helps regulate healthy levels of blood sugar.
Leucine helps combat muscle protein breakdown, supports muscle protein synthesis and tissue repair, and promotes metabolic regulation of energy production and blood sugar.
Lysine promotes collagen production and supports the body’s ability to absorb calcium.
Methionine supports the body’s detoxification processes (especially in the liver) and contributes to the absorption of certain essential minerals.
Phenylalanine supports healthy neurotransmitter production that plays a large role in brain functioning.
Threonine supports healthy collagen and elastin production and aids in fat metabolism.
Tryptophan helps regulate mood by supporting healthy serotonin production and promotes healthy sleep quality.
Valine is essential for energy production as well as muscle growth and repair.
Isoleucine supports hemoglobin and energy production and helps regulate healthy levels of blood sugar.
Leucine helps combat muscle protein breakdown, supports muscle protein synthesis and tissue repair, and promotes metabolic regulation of energy production and blood sugar.
Lysine promotes collagen production and supports the body’s ability to absorb calcium.
Methionine supports the body’s detoxification processes (especially in the liver) and contributes to the absorption of certain essential minerals.
Phenylalanine supports healthy neurotransmitter production that plays a large role in brain functioning.
Threonine supports healthy collagen and elastin production and aids in fat metabolism.
Tryptophan helps regulate mood by supporting healthy serotonin production and promotes healthy sleep quality.
Valine is essential for energy production as well as muscle growth and repair.
Which three essential amino acids are considered branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), and what roles do they play?
The branched-chain amino acids consist of leucine, isoleucine and valine. These are classified as essential amino acids, meaning that the human body cannot produce them internally. BCAAs are notable for their impact on metabolism, especially their involvement in protein synthesis. Among them, leucine stands out as the most significant for stimulating muscle protein synthesis.
Can I take more than one serving of nutraMetrix Tower+™ Essential Amino Acids in a day?
Although there is no definitive recommended daily amount for EAA supplementation, Americans typically consume about 40 grams of EAAs per day through their diet. This product can be safely taken multiple times a day without exceeding the average daily intake.
Research Scope
Leucine
is the most potent EAA for stimulating and modulating the mTOR signaling pathway and has the greatest influence on secretion of leptin, the hormone that signals fullness after eating.
1.5-3 grams
EAA supplements do not need to contain nonessential amino acids (NEAAs) to stimulate MPS; evidence suggests as little as 1.5-3 grams of free-form EAAs can stimulate MPS at rest.
3 grams
of EAA supplementation alone can stimulate around the same MPS as 20 grams of whey protein isolate that contains 10 grams of EAAs.
35%
Approximately 35% of the EAAs in muscle proteins are BCAAs, which also constitute close to 21% of the body’s total protein.
