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.

Frequently asked questions

Auto-generated from Vyvata's scoring data for this product. For general questions about the store (shipping, returns, wholesale), see the site FAQ.

What is NutraBio Alpha EAA?

NutraBio Alpha EAA is a product from Ultimate Sport Nutrition, categorized under Protein & amino acids in the Supplements vertical. It is scored on the Vyvata Scoring Framework — an independent 6-dimension rubric applied uniformly to every product Vyvata lists.

How does NutraBio Alpha EAA score on the Vyvata rubric?

68/100 overall — Standard tier (50–69 band). Per-dimension breakdown: Transparency 78, Formulation 72, Manufacturing 72, Safety 70, Evidence 68, Sustainability 55. Scored as of 2026-08-24.

Why did NutraBio Alpha EAA score in the Standard tier?

NutraBio Alpha EAA is a full-spectrum essential-amino-acid recovery/performance powder from NutraBio, a US sport-nutrition brand with a strong reputation for full-label transparency (no proprietary blends) and in-house cGMP manufacturing at their New Jersey facility. Full-spectrum EAAs at 10-15 g/serving have RCT support for muscle-protein synthesis stimulation and recovery in trained athletes (Jackman 2017, Wolfe 2017). Alpha EAA also stacks nootropics (alpha-GPC, taurine, theanine) into the profile. Held just below Verified by nootropic dosing that is often sub-studied-level (e.g., alpha-GPC well below the 300-600 mg RCT range) and a flavoring/dye system. Would move to Verified 70+ with per-nootropic doses at studied levels and NSF Certified for Sport.

What are the strongest and weakest aspects of this product?

Strongest: Transparency at 78/100 (dose disclosure vs proprietary blends, and honesty of marketing claims) and Formulation at 72/100 (dose adequacy, bioavailability form, and ingredient redundancy). Weakest: Evidence at 68/100 (quality of published RCT support for the active ingredients at the label dose) and Sustainability at 55/100 (sourcing practices, packaging, and corporate practice). All six dimensions feed the overall Vyvata score; a weakness on any one dimension pulls the overall down proportionally.

Is NutraBio Alpha EAA 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.

What would move NutraBio Alpha EAA to a higher tier?

Would move to Verified 70+ with per-nootropic doses at studied levels and NSF Certified for Sport.
