Product details
Where this label sits
Momentous Vital Aminos is one of the amino formulas in the Scoop Sense database. Every active ingredient on the panel is listed with its own dose — nothing is hidden inside a blend total. It runs 30 servings per container at the full labeled serving. Everything on this page comes from the manufacturer's supplement facts panel as of July 2026 — never from the marketing page.
Key ingredients & studied doses
- L-Leucine · 2.5 g. The essential amino acid most studied for its role in triggering muscle protein synthesis after training.
- Full EAA spectrum · 5.6 g total. All nine essential amino acids, individually dosed on the label, supporting whole-body protein balance.
- L-Arginine · 525 mg. Conditionally essential amino acid involved in nitric oxide production and blood flow.
Flavors & sweetener
Tropical Punch flavor sweetened with stevia-derived Rebaudioside A and colored with beta-carotene and beet root.
Who it's best for
People who want the full essential amino spectrum around training. Derived from the label figures above — not medical advice.
How we log this label
Every entry is built the same way: we read the current supplement facts panel, log each disclosed dose, compare it against the amounts used in published research, flag proprietary blends, and state the cautions plainly. The full methodology explains each step.
This label against the research
How we evaluate labelsEach bar shows the amount commonly used in published human research, and where this label's dose falls against it. Research amounts are context, not a recommendation — they are not doses, and nothing here is medical advice.
-
Leucine2.5 g
At or above the studied amount0studied range 0.7 g–3 g4 g
The ISSN position stand puts an acute protein dose at 700–3000 mg of leucine, and about 1–3 g per meal as the amount needed to stimulate protein translation.
Source: Jäger et al., Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition 2017 — “Acute protein doses should strive to contain 700–3000 mg of leucine and/or a higher relative leucine content”
-
L-arginine0.53 g
Plain L-arginine is poorly absorbed as an oral pump ingredient; citrulline raises blood arginine more reliably, which is why the research moved to it.
-
Total EAAs5.6 g
At or above the studied amount0studied range 1.5 g–15 g20 g
Stimulation of muscle protein synthesis has been reported from as little as 1.5 g of EAAs, with the maximal useful single dose put at 15–18 g — more in one sitting adds nothing. BCAAs alone supply only three of the nine essential amino acids.
Source: Ferrando et al., Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition 2023 — “Reasonable dosage of an EAA supplement does not exceed 15 g, meaning that even as much as three maximal doses per day is in line with normal daily consumption of EAAs…”
Common questions about Momentous Vital Aminos
Is Momentous Vital Aminos an EAA or a BCAA product?
A full-spectrum EAA product: 5.6 g of essential amino acids per serving, of which 3.75 g are the three BCAAs. Research on muscle protein synthesis centers on the full nine essential aminos rather than BCAAs alone.
Does Momentous Vital Aminos disclose every dose?
Yes — the label lists an individual amount for each ingredient, with no proprietary blends. That is what the "label fully disclosed" tag on Scoop Sense means, and it is what lets each dose be compared against the amounts used in published research.
