CNP The Purple One Essential Amino 200 g powder provides a mixed amino‑acid blend in an 8.5 g serving, marketed for recovery support.
+ Includes both BCAA/EAA profile and added L‑Glutamine. + Uncommon additions of trisodium citrate flavouring and beta‑carotene set it apart from most peers. + Mid‑range price tier makes it a reasonably affordable option in its category. + Full ingredient list disclosed, with each additive identified.
- Very low protein contribution per serving (0.1 g). - High carbohydrate content (13.4 g) from maltodextrin filler. - Contains sucralose sweetener and potential allergens (egg, gluten, milk, soya).
This product differentiates itself by pairing a standard essential‑amino blend with glutamine and the rare inclusion of beta‑carotene and trisodium citrate, which few comparable formulas offer. While the dosage delivers the amino acids, the nutritional profile is dominated by carbs rather than protein, and the presence of artificial sweetener and multiple allergen warnings may be a consideration for sensitive users.
