BCAA & EAA FAQ & Buying Guide
What's the difference between BCAAs and EAAs?
BCAAs contain the three branched-chain amino acids — leucine, isoleucine, and valine. EAAs include all nine essential amino acids, the BCAAs among them. If you're choosing one, EAA formulas like PVL EAA Complete+ or Believe Performance EAA give you the complete essential profile, while BCAA products like Allmax Aminocore focus on the three most associated with training.
When should I take BCAAs or EAAs?
Most people sip them during training or between meals. They're also a popular low-calorie option for anyone training fasted or spacing out their protein intake through the day.
Do I need amino acids if I already use protein powder?
A quality protein powder already contains all the essential amino acids, so aminos aren't mandatory. They shine as a light intra-workout drink, on days when a full shake isn't practical, or when you want flavour and hydration without the calories.
What about glutamine?
Glutamine is an amino acid many lifters add to support their recovery routine. We carry unflavoured options from Allmax and PVL that mix easily into any shake or amino drink.
Does Fuel Supplements ship BCAAs and EAAs across Canada?
Yes. We ship Canada-wide from our BC warehouses — free on orders over $100 — and offer same-day pickup in Port Coquitlam.
