5% Nutrition All Day You May Now in Stick Packs!

Rich Piana’s 5% Nutrition has a penchant for releasing truly unique formulas. Some, including themselves, may even call their blends “Legendary”. Well, their All Day You May amino acid formula is no exception.

Rich Piana’s 5% Nutrition makes their legendary amino acid powder available in the most convenient packaging imaginable: stick packs!

All the way back in 2015, we wrote about the initial release of All Day You May. The product embraced the idea of sipping on a quality, nutritious amino acid formula throughout the day, rather than all in one shot — and all the better if in a gallon milk jug! Add to that the addition of the category’s first Sweet Tea flavor, which would go on to become an industry standard for amino acid supplements, and it’s clear that “ADYM” has that classic Rich Piana magic.

Today, 5% Nutrition has decided to take the formula you’re supposed to sip on all day to the next level of convenience and flexibility with the introduction of All Day You May Stick Packs. And it comes in an all-new flavor: Italian Lemon Ice!

All Day You May Now in Stick Packs

Since inception, ADYM has come in tubs – which is the standard. But the entire purpose behind the product is its versatility and flexibility to be consumed whenever and wherever.

Enter stick packs. We always love when we get classic supplement formulas in new formats, and ADYM being packaged up in single serving, highly portable stick packs is perfect. Just grab a pack on your way out the door and mix it in some water at your leisure.

This is the second recent stick pack release from 5% Nutrition — we also recently covered the incredibly well-formulated Hydrate STK electrolyte supplement that brought a category-first ingredient, so check out that article after this one.

But today, we’re going to dive into a summary of the ADYM ingredients, but first let’s check out PricePlow for any 5% Nutrition Deals, as well as our original video review of ADYM from years ago.

5% Nutrition All Day You May Stick Packs – How It Works

• Branched Chain Amino Acid (BCAA) Blend – 6,000 mg

  No recovery product worth its salt would lack BCAAs, and 5% Nutrition knocks it out of the park here. The BCAA ratio is 10:1:1 leucine:isoleucine:valine, which equates to 5 grams of leucine, 500 milligrams of isoleucine, and 500 milligrams of valine. This is a pretty leucine-heavy BCAA ratio, due to leucine’s role as the primary activator of mTOR, which initiates muscle protein synthesis.

  BCAAs are anti-catabolic, meaning they help your body maintain muscle mass instead of ripping itself apart. In addition, BCAAs have been shown to increase endurance.

• Conditionally Essential Amino Acid Blend – 2,750 mg

  Conditionally essential amino acids can be produced by the body, but typically not at the quantities required for proper recovery following strenuous exercise.

  • L-glutamine is the muscles’ most abundant amino acid, which can lead to improved endurance, less soreness, and improved recovery.
  • 

    Stay positive, Rich Piana and 5% Nutrition are here to get you to the moon!

    L-carnitine l-tartrate plays a pivotal role in multiple metabolic processes, given its shepherd-like job of helping to transport fatty acids to cells for use. This leads to a variety of performance benefits, from endurance to weight loss.

• Amino Acid Support Blend – 960 mg

  • L-taurine is an awesome ingredient, and we’ve been fully convinced of its efficacy in promoting endurance, as well as cognitive performance and cell hydration.
  • Coconut water concentrate has been an ingredient on the rise for the last several years for its hydration-promoting effects spurred on by its ability to replenish electrolyte levels in the body.
  • Alpha-hydroxyisocaproic acid (HICA), or leucic acid, is a metabolite of l-leucine that serves as the catalyst for mTOR activation, which, as stated above, stimulated muscle protein synthesis.
  • Bromelain has anti-inflammatory effects, making recovery smoother and much less painful.
  • Blueberry powder is an underutilized recovery-promoting supplement due to its ability to reduce muscle damage.

• Intra-Cellular Buffer Blend – 800 mg

  • Beta-alanine isn’t in here at a huge dose, but it has been shown to increase endurance markedly at clinical doses due to its combination with l-histidine, which leads to the creation of carnosine.
  • Dicalcium phosphate helps bolster cell membrane structure.
  • Sodium bicarbonate, also known as baking soda, has been shown to boost endurance, particularly via a synergistic relationship with beta alanine.

• Joint & Liver Support Blend – 650 mg

  Both d-glucosamine sulfate potassium and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) are well-known for their promotion of joint health, which is a necessary and often overlooked consideration when you’re engaging in intense exercise on a frequent basis.

  5% Nutrition also added milk thistle, which helps support liver function.

• Essential Amino Acid Blend – 200 mg

  • L-phenylalanine is first converted to tyrosine, and then to epinephrine, norepinephrine, and l-dopa, which all have large roles to play in mood and energy regulation.
  • L-threonine helps spark muscle protein synthesis from its part in producing serine and glycine.
  • L-lysine HCl aids in the formation of collagen.
  • L-histidine HCl helps to improve immune system function and combines with beta alanine to form carnosine, which boosts endurance.
  • L-tryptophan assists in the production of serotonin, which in turn helps regulate mood.
  • L-methionine prevents the spread of free radicals, decreasing the oxidative damage often experienced by intense exercise.

  The doses aren’t meant to replace proper diet and nutrition – remember that All Day You May is an anytime muscle-feeder during workouts and between meals.

With ADYM Stick Packs, 5% Nutrition has opted to embrace this easygoing approach to recovery supplementation and then some. Grab a single-use pack filled to the brim with everything your body needs for optimal repair, and simply pour it into your beverage of choice wherever you happen to be.
