Best EAA supplement capsules

Top pick: BulkSupplements EAA Capsules — a straight, no-frills capsule with all nine essential aminos, and the best value per serving of the capsule options here. If you want a full-spectrum formula with a clear label, it's the one to start with.

Who the others suit:

• Swanson Essential Amino Acid Complex — pharmaceutical-grade, veggie capsules, and the label spells out each amino's dose; good if you like knowing exactly what you're taking.
• Double Wood Essential Amino Acid Supplement — simple capsule, GMO-free, well rated; a solid everyday choice.
• Pure Encapsulations Essential Aminos — the premium, third-party-tested pick for people who care most about purity.
• Kion Aminos Capsules — high-dose leucine for serious training, but it takes 7 capsules a serving.
• Divine Medicinals EAA 100 Capsules — small-batch option if you prefer a smaller brand.

Skip the Muscle Code, PureAmino and OptimalAmino picks if you specifically want EAAs — they're amino blends or tablets, not EAA capsules.
