What is the difference between the amino acid complex and the protein mixes?

Amino Acid Complex:

  • tasteless capsule form
  • quick consumption possible, no preparation and no additional equipment required
  • Easier to transport (easier handling)
  • no satiety, almost no calories
  • only essential amino acids
  • less suitable for people with swallowing difficulties
  • Recommended intake: 4 capsules
  •  

Protein mixes:

  • in powder form, with flavor
  • more time-consuming: preparation necessary (glass, spoon, liquid such as plant milk or water required)
  • Larger/massive packaging, more difficult to transport
  • Better for people with swallowing difficulties
  • Can contribute to satiety, provides calories and other nutrients
  • Contains essential, semi-essential and non-essential amino acids
  • Recommended intake: 15 g
