USP Labs AminoLIFT+
Go to StoreUSPlabs AminoLIFT pairs a comprehensive amino profile with a handful of select ingredients that have been shown to provide clean energy, intense focus, and mental clarity.
AminoEssentials+ Blend
The AminoEssentials+ Blend contains eight out of the nine essential amino acids. Tryptophan is the only one missing and we are assuming it was left out because it has been shown to cause sleepiness.[1]
The blend also contains a few other popular aminos: taurine, alanine, glycine, glutamine, and citrulline.
Taurine
Taurine is one of the most commonly used ingredients in energy drinks because of its ability to increase mental performance and cognitive function. It works particularly well in combination with caffeine.[2,3,4]
L-alanine
L-alanine provides energy and stimulates the brain, central nervous system, and muscles.[5]
L-glycine
L-glycine is the most basic of all amino acids, it works hand in hand with glutamine as a building block for producing proteins in the body.[6]
L-glutamine
L-glutamine is the most prominent non-essential amino acid in the human body. That being said, it's a good idea for athletes to also take supplemental L-glutamine because people who train hard run the risk for depleting glutamine quicker than their bodies can produce it.[7]
L-citrulline
Citrulline is an amino acid that gets converted by the body into arginine, which is used in the production of nitric oxide.[8,9]
Focused energy blend
The Focused Energy Blend combines stimulants and nootropics (cognitive enhancers) in order to provide a balance between energy and focus. No more feeling overstimulated or "giddy" from your pre-workout, the nootropic ingredients will help ensure all of that excess energy gets channeled into intense focus.
Choline bitartrate
Choline is an essential nutrient required for healthy brain function. Its nootropic benefits have been demonstrated in a number of studies.[10,11,12]
Caffeine anhydrous
Caffeine has been regarded as the most widely used drug, not only in the U.S. but in the entire world.[13] It is a stimulant, but it also offers cognitive benefits such as increased concentration and focus, improved short-term memory, and faster reaction times.[14,15]
Green tea leaf extract
Green tea leaf extract is a stimulant because it contains caffeine. It is extremely rich in antioxidants and is also reported to improve mental altertness.[16]
Yerba mate leaf extract
Yerba mate leaf extract is another source of caffeine, which like green tea, is packed full of antioxidants.[17]
B-vitamins
In addition to its two powerful ingredient blends, AminoLIFT provides 1,000% daily value of the key B vitamins: B1, B6, and B12. B vitamins are important for metabolizing carbohydrates for energy.[18] Consuming such large doses of vitamins is known as "megadosing." Some experts believe this approach has the potential to provide great benefits with little chance for causing harm.[19]
