How much does Muscle Water Aminos cost?

By Aali Qureshi, founder of Deadly Company · Published November 1, 2026 · Updated November 1, 2026

Provisional launch pricing puts Muscle Water Aminos at $69.99 a tub — provisional because our final manufacturing costs are not locked, and the price can move before launch. Per gram of essential amino acids, that works out to about $0.146, also provisional: less than half of Kion’s $0.33 at list and a third of Thorne’s $0.45.

The short answer

$69.99 a tub. That is the provisional launch price for Muscle Water Aminos — the number we are planning around, printed here with its label on: provisional.

Provisional means the price can move before launch. Our final manufacturing costs are not locked yet, and we will not print a price as settled while the numbers behind it are still being finalised.

When the price locks, this page updates and the word provisional comes off. Until then, the provisional $69.99 is the honest figure: real enough to plan on, labelled so nobody mistakes it for the final one.

What a tub buys

Every serving of Muscle Water Aminos delivers 16 grams of essential amino acids — all nine, every amino printed on the label. In food terms, that is the essential amino acids in the whole steak: about 138 grams of cooked sirloin.

Its 4 grams of leucine clear the muscle-building trigger the research draws at 2.5 to 3 grams per feeding — more leucine, in fact, than the whole steak it matches for essential amino acids.

The same serving carries 3.5 grams of creatine — roughly the creatine in two pounds of raw beef — so there is no second tub and no second habit to buy alongside it.

It is sweetened with allulose, monk fruit, cane sugar and thaumatin — nothing artificial doing the sweetening, and nothing that outstays the flavour — and it lands at the calories of an egg.

Used as directed — two servings a day — Muscle Water Aminos helps preserve lean muscle when paired with resistance training and adequate protein. That is the whole claim.

Muscle Water Aminos is a protein supplement, not a meal replacement. Food first — this covers the protein on the days food isn’t happening.

The cost per gram, graded honestly

Price per tub is the wrong unit. Tubs hold different doses, so the unit that actually compares is cost per gram of essential amino acids.

At the provisional $69.99 a tub, Muscle Water Aminos works out to about $0.146 per gram of essential amino acids — provisional, like the price it is derived from.

Kion Aminos, fully disclosed and honestly labelled, costs $0.33 per gram at list. Thorne Amino Complex costs $0.45 per gram — the most expensive essential amino acids in the field we track.

Same aminos, roughly a third of the price per gram. That claim is an EAA-category claim, made against disclosed rivals — and the qualifier matters, because the next section concedes the comparison we lose.

The whey concession

Against whey, we lose the per-gram argument, and this page will not pretend otherwise. Bulk whey delivers its essential amino acids at fewer cents per gram than any free-form EAA product — ours included.

That is not the comparison Muscle Water Aminos is built on. Whey’s aminos arrive locked inside intact protein that digestion must dismantle first; free-form aminos are in your blood before a shake has finished digesting.

Whey also carries no creatine, and it asks a suppressed appetite to sit down to a shake. This category exists for the days food isn’t happening — and on cost per gram of protein, whey keeps its crown. We concede it in print.

Why the price says provisional

A price is only as settled as the costs underneath it. Ours are not final: the manufacturer’s closing costings are still to come in, and a first production run has a way of repricing good intentions.

So the provisional $69.99 is printed as what it is — our planned launch price, not a locked one. If it moves, it moves before launch, and this page is the first place the new figure appears, carrying the same label until the day it locks.

Printing a provisional number with its label on is the same discipline as printing every amino on the tub. A figure you can check beats a figure you are asked to trust.

Drop 001: the first run

The first production run — Drop 001 — is 1,000 tubs of Muscle Water Aminos in mango, the launch flavour. One flavour, done properly, before any line extensions.

It sells as a straight paid preorder: full payment upfront, taken at the provisional $69.99 a tub. A first run gets made when its buyers are real — preorders are how we know they are.

When pricing locks, the provisional label comes off this page and the final figure replaces it everywhere, including the cost-per-gram cell our comparison article left open for it.
