Are InstAminos a Scam? - Nutrition Scam. SUMMARY: We believe InstAminos are a partial scam. As far as we can tell, InstAminos are just normal instantiated BCAA's in the standard 2:1:1 ratio. BCAA's are great and should be used by athletes and those working out but there is no need to pay more for the fancy InstAminos brand name and we hope the cost isn't being passed along to brands and consumers. Agree with our opinion? Disagree? Either way, be sure to let the FTC know here.Alternatively, email Christine DeLorme from the FTC's Division of Advertising Practices directly: cdelorme@ftc.gov What are InstAminos? InstAminos by Compound Solutions are...just instantized BCAA's. On their website it says the InstaAminos are patented but on the brochure linked here it doesn't say that. The Study and Science We can find no specific public science or studies on InstaAminos. Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) is a term that refers to the combination of three amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine.
