Four flavours, in stock at TopDog Nutrition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's In Every Scoop — and Why It Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10g EAAs + Arginine\u003c\/strong\u003e — all nine essential amino acids your body cannot produce, plus arginine (the \"10th EAA\") which supports nitric oxide production and enhances amino uptake. Free-form EAAs absorb far faster than the aminos in food or protein powder — they don't need hours of digestion to reach your muscles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e7g BCAAs in 8:3:3 ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e — leucine, isoleucine and valine with leucine dominant. Multiple studies show higher-leucine EAA blends produce significantly greater muscle protein synthesis than lower-leucine equivalents. 7g of BCAAs in a single EAA serving is among the highest doses available.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4g Leucine specifically\u003c\/strong\u003e — leucine is the primary trigger for mTOR activation and muscle protein synthesis. Research suggests 2.2–2.7g is the minimum to initiate MPS; 4g is the dose shown in studies to produce meaningful strength gains. GEAAR hits this clinically relevant threshold, where many competitors deliver half that.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1020mg electrolyte blend\u003c\/strong\u003e — five electrolytes including Aquamin® (red algae-derived calcium) and magnesium, calibrated to match the WHO's Oral Rehydration Salts sodium-to-potassium ratio. Magnesium supports over 800 bodily functions — including muscle contraction and cramping prevention — and is often missing from competitor EAA products.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBioPerine® (5mg)\u003c\/strong\u003e — a multi-patented black pepper piperine extract with clinical evidence for increasing amino acid absorption by 25–32%. A full 5mg dose, not a label sprinkle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% fermented vegan aminos\u003c\/strong\u003e — derived from plant-based fermentation, not processed bird feathers or hair (a shortcut some brands quietly take).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo synthetic colours\u003c\/strong\u003e — natural colourings only: red beet powder, blue-green algae, beta-carotene, turmeric.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInformed Choice tested\u003c\/strong\u003e — third-party drug tested for banned substances. GEAAR is one of the only EAA formulas in the world that can claim this level of combined dosing, completeness and verified purity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen to Take It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGEAAR is most effective intra-workout — sipping it through your session keeps aminos and electrolytes constantly available when your muscles need them most. On heavy days, many serious users run three serves: one pre-workout, one during, one after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraining days:\u003c\/strong\u003e one scoop pre or intra-workout; a second post-workout if you want full coverage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRest days:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1–2 scoops at various times to keep amino levels consistent and support recovery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAll-day amino drip:\u003c\/strong\u003e dissolve one scoop in a litre of water and sip through the day — the lighter flavour over that much water helps people hit their daily hydration goal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGEAAR vs Hardcore BCAA — Which Do You Need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/mutant-hardcore-bcaa\"\u003eMutant Hardcore BCAA\u003c\/a\u003e delivers 8g of BCAAs — the three most critical aminos for MPS — at an excellent price. GEAAR delivers all nine EAAs plus the electrolyte and absorption stack. Most people choose one: if you want the highest BCAA dose at the best value, go Hardcore BCAA. If you want the complete EAA profile plus hydration in a single intra-workout product, GEAAR is the more complete formula. Running both simultaneously is unnecessary — the aminos overlap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDirections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMix one scoop with 300–600ml of cold water (adjust to your preferred sweetness — more water for lighter flavour, less for more intense). Drink intra-workout, post-workout, or sip through the day. Can be stacked with a pre workout or unflavoured creatine and glutamine — GEAAR contains no stimulants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's the difference between EAAs and BCAAs?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBCAAs are three of the nine essential amino acids — leucine, isoleucine and valine. EAAs are all nine, including the BCAAs. Your body cannot produce any of the nine essential aminos; you must get them from food or supplements. EAAs are considered more complete because they provide everything needed for muscle protein synthesis, not just the three branched-chain components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy is leucine so important?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeucine is the main driver of mTOR activation — the cellular signalling pathway that triggers muscle protein synthesis. Research suggests MPS requires a minimum of 2.2–2.7g of leucine to initiate, and higher doses (around 4g) produce proportionally greater MPS responses. GEAAR's 4g leucine dose is specifically matched to the clinical studies showing meaningful strength and MPS outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it suitable for vegans?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — 100% plant-based fermented amino acids, no synthetic colours, no animal by-products in the amino blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat does Informed Choice tested mean?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInformed Choice is one of the world's most rigorous third-party supplement testing programmes — certifying that the product has been tested for banned substances by an accredited laboratory. It's the standard many professional sports organisations and national teams require from their athletes' supplements. Most EAA products aren't tested at this level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I take it fasted before morning training?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — many serious users (including Mutant-sponsored athletes) take GEAAR first thing in the morning to break an overnight fast with amino acids rather than waiting for food to digest. The fast-absorbing free-form EAAs reach your muscles far faster than the aminos in a whole meal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mutant","offers":[{"title":"390g | 30 Double Serves \/ Blue Raspberry","offer_id":44248062885977,"sku":"TMUM7111S","price":59.9,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"390g | 30 Double Serves \/ Peach Mango","offer_id":44248062918745,"sku":"TMUM7112S","price":59.9,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1513\/5678\/files\/Mutant_GEAAR_Blue_Raspberry.png?v=1785288421","url":"https:\/\/topdognutrition.co.nz\/products\/mutant-geaar-eaa","provider":"TopDog Nutrition","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
