Weight goals, with muscle kept in the plan.
Eating less is the part of most weight plans that costs muscle. We position POWER9® to supply amino acids for muscle at close to zero calories while total intake drops, so muscle stays in the plan. This page shows which parts of the formula that positioning leans on.
What the brand claims
“Supply amino acids for muscle while you eat less, at close to zero calories.”
That is our weight-goals claim. It is a dietary-supplement claim about supporting muscle while eating less, not a weight-loss or appetite claim, and the notice below applies to it.
POWER9® is a dietary supplement, not a weight-loss drug, and it is not positioned to cause weight loss or reduce hunger. Weight management depends on nutrition, training, sleep, and — where relevant — a clinician’s plan.

Inside the formula for this
The amino acids doing the work.
Published amounts per capsule. The full nine-part formula lives on the POWER9® page.
L-Valine
60 mg publishedA BCAA used by the body in protein synthesis and muscle maintenance.
L-Isoleucine
60 mg publishedA BCAA commonly associated with energy and exercise recovery.
Leucine is the amino acid most studied as the trigger for muscle protein synthesis; the formula’s other essential amino acids matter because the signal needs them to build with. In a calorie deficit, food-first protein still sets the floor.
