Ajinomoto, New York NY, producers of Amino Vital, has introduced two new amino acid sports bars—Amino Vital Prepare and Amino Vital Repair. Like the Amino Vital ready-to-drink and powder formats, both bars contain the “Vital” combination of the branched-chain amino acids arginine and glutamine. The Amino Vital Prepare pre-sports bar, available in Forest Berry, provides energy and focus during tough workouts. In addition to having 2400 milligrams of amino acids, each Amino Vital Prepare bar contains 290 calories, 4 grams of protein and 50 grams of simple and complex carbohydrates for quick and sustained energy. The Amino Vital Repair post-sports bar, available in Orange Cranberry, revitalizes following strenuous exercise and, like the pre-sports bar, contains 2400 milligrams of amino acids. Amino Vital Repair has 290 calories, 45 grams of carbohydrates and 10 grams of fast- and slow-acting proteins for short-term re-energizing and long-term muscle strength recovery.
