Description
WHAT IS PERFECT AMINO™?
PerfectAmino is pure essential amino acids (the building blocks of protein) in a precise form and ratio that is up to 99% utilized by the body to build new protein, muscle and collagen — but without the caloric impact, and without breaking a fast.
And it’s absorbed into the bloodstream within an average of 23-30 minutes.
It is further enhanced with Nucleic Acid Building Blocks (Nucleosides and Nucleotides), what our DNA and RNA are composed of.
This is important as our DNA and RNA are the genetic code and messaging molecules that form and shape our body.
By adding these to PERFECT AMINO™ we optimize its use within the cell in the creation of new protein and muscle, helping to direct the process of protein synthesis and support genetic health and performance.
But how does PERFECT AMINO™ work? Why is a 99% utilization rate important? And how is this different than other protein sources?
HOW PERFECT AMINO™ WORKS
It’s widely known that whole eggs are a superior protein source to meats. And that both whole eggs and meats are superior to protein powders such as whey, pea, soy and collagen.
But why is this?
It has to do with their amino acid profiles as a protein.
Our body doesn’t get protein from protein. We don’t build muscle out of whey protein or meat proteins or soy proteins.
Instead, our body breaks these down into the building blocks that form them — the amino acids.
It then takes the essential amino acids from these and builds completely new proteins in the forms that the human body needs.
But the human body requires all of the essential amino acids and it needs them in a precise ratio one to another in order to make new protein.
If there is an excess of one or more, this excess can’t be used to synthesize new protein. Or if there is less of one needed for the overall ratio, this pulls down the amount of each of the others that can be used.
This leaves extra amino acids the body can’t use. But also, our body has no way to store amino acids. So these are converted into glucose (sugar) or body fat.
These extra amino acids are the actual source of calories in any protein we eat.
The power of PERFECT AMINO™ is that it’s the exact essential amino acids, in the exact ratio needed to build new protein, but without the extra amino acids.
So we synthesize new protein, but without the caloric impact from excess, unused amino acids.
How does this compare to other protein sources?
This chart illustrates the Amino Acid Utilization (AAU™) that PERFECT AMINO™ offers, dramatically greater than dietary protein sources.
Utilization Chart
BCAAs: At the bottom of the spectrum are branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). Our body requires all of the essential amino acids to build new protein. But BCAAs are only 3 amino acids. So the body utilizes only about 1% of BCAAs to build new protein, with the remaining 99% being converted to glucose in the body (sugar) of body fat.
Whey, Pea, and Soy proteins: Only 16%-18% of the amino acids in soy, pea, and whey proteins are utilized by the body to build new protein, with 82%-84% being excess amino acids.
Meat, fish, and poultry: Foods like meat, fish, and poultry fare better, with 32% being utilized and 68% going unused.
Eggs: Whole eggs are at the top, with a 48% utilization rate and only 52% converted to glucose or body fat. (Egg whites alone are only 16% utilized for new proteins).
PERFECT AMINO™ is the precise ratio of essential amino acids needed by the body to build new protein, muscle and collagen — up to 99% utilized.
This means there is almost no caloric impact and it will not break a fast.
And by adding Nucleic Acid Building Blocks to PERFECT AMINO™ we optimize its use within the cell in the creation of new protein and muscle, helping to direct the process of protein synthesis and support genetic health and performance.
You can learn more about how nucleic acid building blocks optimize protein synthesis in this article.
PERFECT AMINO™ is 100% Vegan, free of Gluten, Soy, and Dairy.
And it is in a form that can be fully absorbed and utilized by almost anyone, no matter the state of their digestive system.
If taken 20-30 minutes before a workout, it is usually fully absorbed into the bloodstream by the time you start and able to help repair micro-tears in muscle as they occur, dramatically improving endurance and recovery time.
There is nothing else like it.

I’ve tried this product before but this is the first time purchasing it online at Stoneage Health. The customer service was really prompt and helpful, the product was dispatched quickly but the actual delivery time took forever, at least a week. No fault of Stoneage but frustrating none the less. Love this product. I’ve tried the tablets and berry flavour. I love the berry flavour. I use it during long training sessions.

I have only been using for a few weeks so haven’t noticed a massive energy improvement but have purchased more so that I give the product a good crack. When purchasing with back order it would be great if there was some note indicating how long the wait time would be. Thank you

At first, I didn’t feel any difference with hunger. Now with two scoops a fast is a lot easier. It does take time to fat adapt but this seems to work
