Golden Hour Aminos
Plant-Based Essential Amino Acid Support
Muscle • Recovery • Strength • Protein Support • Daily Nourishment
Feed your strength. Support your body. Step into your Golden Hour.
Your body is constantly rebuilding, restoring, and renewing—and it needs the right building blocks to do it.
Golden Hour Aminos is our plant-based essential amino acid formula created to provide the amino acids your body cannot make on its own. Designed for muscle maintenance, recovery, protein synthesis, and everyday nourishment, Golden Hour makes it simple to give your body foundational support without relying on a traditional protein shake.
Whether you're exercising, cleansing, eating primarily plant-based, or simply want additional amino acid support throughout your day, Golden Hour was created to help you stay nourished, strong, and supported.
Because at Sanctuary, cleansing isn't only about what we release.
It's equally important to replenish.
Why Amino Acids Matter
Amino acids are often called the building blocks of protein.
Your body uses amino acids to build proteins involved throughout normal physiology—from muscle and connective tissue to enzymes, hormones, and other important compounds.
Nine amino acids are considered essential, meaning the body cannot make enough of them on its own and they must come from the diet.
Golden Hour provides essential amino acids in a convenient tablet form, making it an especially beautiful addition during times when you're being intentional about protein intake, physical activity, recovery, and nourishment.

What's Inside Golden Hour?
Each amino acid has a different role, but together they provide essential building blocks your body can use throughout normal protein metabolism.
L-Leucine
Muscle Protein Synthesis + Recovery
Leucine is a branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) with an especially important role in signaling muscle protein synthesis, making it one of the stars of a muscle-supportive amino acid formula.
L-Isoleucine
Muscle + Energy Metabolism
Another BCAA, isoleucine participates in muscle metabolism and normal energy-related processes, making it valuable for active bodies and recovery.
L-Valine
Muscle Maintenance + Recovery
Valine completes the three BCAAs and contributes to normal protein synthesis and muscle metabolism.
Together:
Leucine + Isoleucine + Valine = the BCAA trio.
L-Lysine HCl
Protein + Collagen Formation
Lysine is an essential amino acid involved in normal protein synthesis and contributes to the body's production of collagen, an important structural protein found throughout connective tissues.
L-Phenylalanine
Neurotransmitter Building Block
Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid used by the body as a precursor in pathways that produce compounds including tyrosine and certain neurotransmitters.
Rather than promising a mood or focus effect, we love it for what it fundamentally provides:
an essential building block the body requires.
L-Threonine
Protein + Structural Support
Threonine contributes to normal protein synthesis and is incorporated into important structural proteins throughout the body.
L-Methionine
Methylation + Antioxidant Pathways
Methionine is a sulfur-containing essential amino acid involved in normal protein synthesis and metabolic pathways, including the production of compounds used in methylation and antioxidant systems.
Rather than calling methionine a “detoxifying amino acid,” we describe it as nutritional support for normal metabolic pathways involved in the body's natural processing systems.
L-Tryptophan
Serotonin + Melatonin Precursor
Tryptophan is an essential amino acid and precursor used by the body in pathways involved in the production of serotonin and melatonin.
These compounds play roles in normal mood and sleep-wake regulation, although Golden Hour isn't intended as a treatment for sleep or mood conditions.
