Release form
The form in which the drug is released.
-
Powder. A very common form of release. The powder product usually comes with a measuring spoon or other device that allows you to measure a standard dose; and if necessary, the serving size can be changed without much difficulty. Among the disadvantages, it is worth noting that the powder is usually supposed to be diluted in liquid, and this is not always convenient.
-
Tablets. Amino acids in uncoated tablets are a fairly common form of drug release. These can be either swallowable tablets or chewable tablets. They are easy to store and convenient to take with you. However, there is usually a small concentration of amino acids per tablet, so sometimes you have to take a whole handful. In addition, amino acids in tablet form take the longest to be absorbed by the body.
—
Capsules. Capsules in a characteristic shell are one of the most popular forms of amino acid release. Their main advantage is ease of use: you do not need to measure out the exact amount, as in the case of powder, dilute the drug in liquid, etc., but simply swallow the capsules and drink a sufficient amount of water. In this case, a standard portion is usually several pieces. This amount can be increased or decreased if necessary, selecting the optimal dosage for a particular case.
-
Liquid.... The release form is less common than powder and tablets, but still quite popular. The liquid can be supplied either in bulk, in bottles, or in portioned ampoules or sticks; See “Packaging” for more details.Weight
The total weight of the drug supplied as a powder (see "Form of release"). Knowing the daily rate (see below), you can estimate how many days a given amount will last. Also note that a large package is somewhat cheaper than several small ones with the same total weight. Small packaging, in turn, will be convenient when buying "for trial".
Number of capsules / tablets
The number of capsules or tablets in the package of the drug with the appropriate form of release (see above). Knowing the daily rate (see below), you can estimate how much a given amount of the drug is enough. Also note that one large package is usually cheaper than several small ones with the same total number of tablets; small packaging, in turn, is useful if the drug is bought "for testing".
Servings
The number of individual servings of the drug in this packaging option. Based on a standard serving size (see below). Also note that this amount does not always correspond to the number of days for which the drug is enough, since the daily rate may include several servings.
Serving
The number of tablets / capsules in a standard serving of the drug with the appropriate form of release (see above).
Most drugs are dosed in such a way that the serving includes several tablets. This allows, if necessary, to adjust the dosage both upwards and downwards. And such a need may well arise: the dosage is indicated per average person, and if there is a significant deviation from these parameters (for example, very high or very low body weight), it is advisable to change the serving size accordingly. However, this should be done only after consulting a specialist.
Portion
The size of a standard serving of the drug, produced in the form of a powder or liquid (see "Form of release"). For the first variety, it is indicated in grams, for the second — in milliliters.
If the drug is supplied in a general package (jar, bottle), the kit usually includes a dosing tool like a scoop or a measuring cap that allows you to measure a portion. For liquids in individual packaging (ampoules), the volume of the ampoule usually corresponds to the serving.
Note that the serving size is indicated based on a certain average person, and in some situations (for example, with significant deviations in body weight from the average), it may be necessary to adjust the dosage. However, it is worth changing the portion size only after consulting with a specialist.
BCAA per serving
The amount of BCAAs contained in one standard serving of the product.
For more details on serving size, see above, the features of BCAAs are described in detail in the “Type” paragraph. And knowing the amount of this component, you can accurately dose its intake.
