Takeuchi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yuto Ogura), which operates D2C and OEM businesses and wholesale business for health foods and cosmetics, has launched a new flavor, "Golden Pineapple Flavor," for "PERFECT EAA" from its "PERFECT series," fully supervised by IFBB PRO Men's Physique athlete Junpei Taguchi, with whom the company has an official sponsorship agreement.

[Development Background]

The "PERFECT EAA" series, developed under the supervision of Junpei Taguchi, has been well-received by many customers. Amidst this, the development of a new flavor began with the desire to "deliver a flavor that makes training time more enjoyable." This time, we focused on the taste of pineapple, which is loved by a wide range of generations. We were particular about creating a flavor design that imagines ripe golden pineapple, aiming for a fruity aroma and refreshing drinkability the moment you take a sip. Through repeated trial production and tasting, we pursued the balance of sweetness and sourness unique to pineapple. We finished it with a clean aftertaste that can be enjoyed not only during training but also in various everyday situations. As a new option to complement existing flavors, we deliver a cup that colors your daily training and lifestyle.

Flavor Description

A refreshing and gorgeous flavor that imagines ripe golden pineapple. It features a fruity aroma that spreads the moment you take a sip, and a drinkable finish where the refreshing sweetness and moderate sourness unique to pineapple are harmonized.

We also focused on a clean aftertaste, aiming for a taste that can be enjoyed not only during training but also when you want to refresh your mood. The juicy flavor reminiscent of tropical fruits colors your daily workout time.

About PERFECT EAA

PERFECT EAA is an EAA (Essential Amino Acid) supplement supervised by IFBB PRO Men's Physique athlete Junpei Taguchi.

Developed with meticulous attention to detail, from the formulation design to the taste, price range, and package design, pursuing the EAA that Taguchi desires. It is designed to be easily incorporated into daily training and to be continued every day.

Another feature is its simple design with EAA as the main ingredient. By not adding unnecessary ingredients, it is designed to be easily combined with other supplements according to one's lifestyle and goals.

In flavor development as well, we pursued "deliciousness that you'll want to drink every day." The flavors developed so far have been well-received by many customers, and the newly added Golden Pineapple flavor was born as a new option to make training time more enjoyable.

What is EAA?

EAA is an abbreviation for "Essential Amino Acids." Essential amino acids are amino acids that the body cannot synthesize in sufficient amounts and must be obtained from food, etc. They are used by those who are conscious of their daily diet and nutritional intake during training.

〈9 Essential Amino Acids〉 Valine / Leucine / Isoleucine / Lysine / Histidine / Threonine / Methionine / Phenylalanine / Tryptophan

Recommended Intake Timing

Recommended as a drink in the morning, before or after training, or as a mood enhancer between meals. Enjoy it in various scenes according to your daily lifestyle.

[Comment from IFBB PRO Men's Physique Athlete Junpei Taguchi]

Finally, a new flavor has been released for the Perfect Series EAA! The flavor is Golden Pineapple!

This product, like the others, is designed with a focus on taste and drinkability so that everyone can continue to use it. It has a perfect product design with a refreshing taste and a hint of sweetness during training and cardio.

The Perfect Series EAA is intentionally designed without other ingredients besides essential amino acids so that you can easily customize it with other supplements. For example, some products add ingredients often used during training, such as glutamine, creatine, beta-alanine, or sodium, but because I am aiming for the top, I have designed the product this way to meticulously control the grams and ingredients I want to add to other supplements.

I hope that not only those who love the Perfect Series but also those who have never tried it will pick it up and drink it!
