Six-dimension breakdown
Why this scored 44/100
EAA + BCAA + electrolyte concept is defensible (Jackman 2017 showed EAAs stimulate MPS), but stacking caffeine plus a Reishi/Shiitake/Maitake 'mushroom blend' as a focus/energy layer with no doses is a proprietary-blend problem. EAA content itself not disclosed.

Evidence & sources
The Vyvata score's Evidence dimension measures the quality of published RCT support for a product's active ingredients at the label dose. Our source hierarchy: double-blind RCTs in MEDLINE-indexed journals > single-blind RCTs > open-label trials > observational studies > mechanism papers > N=1 case studies (anecdotes). Predatory journals and manufacturer-authored studies without independent replication are weighted down.
Product-specific evidence citations for this item are embedded in the analysis text on the "Analysis" tab. For the full framework and evidence hierarchy, see the methodology page.
How to read the Evidence dimension
- 80–100: Multiple double-blind RCTs in indexed journals directly testing this product OR the exact ingredients at the exact dose.
- 60–79: Single double-blind RCT + supporting ingredient literature at the studied dose.
- 40–59: Open-label trials + ingredient literature; no product-specific double-blind evidence.
- 20–39: Ingredient literature only; no product-specific trials or trials in predatory venues.
- 0–19: No credible evidence base or unverifiable claims.

Why did EAA + HYDRATION score in the Rejected tier?
EAA + BCAA + electrolyte concept is defensible (Jackman 2017 showed EAAs stimulate MPS), but stacking caffeine plus a Reishi/Shiitake/Maitake 'mushroom blend' as a focus/energy layer with no doses is a proprietary-blend problem. EAA content itself not disclosed.

Weakest: Sustainability at 45/100 (sourcing practices, packaging, and corporate practice) and Transparency at 30/100 (dose disclosure vs proprietary blends, and honesty of marketing claims). All six dimensions feed the overall Vyvata score; a weakness on any one dimension pulls the overall down proportionally.
Is EAA + HYDRATION third-party tested?
No third-party certifications (NSF, USP, ConsumerLab, or equivalent) were on record at the time of scoring. This affects the Manufacturing dimension score. The manufacturer may test internally or have obtained certification more recently — check the current product label for the most up-to-date information.
