com Essential Amino Acids Powder - Essential Amino Acids Supplement, EAA Powder - Unflavored & Gluten Free, 10g per Serving, 1kg (2.2 lbs) (Pack of 1)

Way too many people on here are leaving reviews don't know anything about supplement manufacturing and labelling guidelines and it shows. Below, I'm going to provide a detailed review, if you want the short version, skip to the very bottom, look for "TLDR." Firstly, I would like to comment on a review stating that they changed their formula, since this is my field of occupation, I am very much qualified to speak on this matter. For one, they didn't change their formula, they updated the supplement facts as there were several updated FDA guidelines that all supplement manufacturers need to follow, especially if you're following GMP guidelines. And second, including all of these ingredients as a proprietary blend, as the name implies, protects their dosages, as it is very easy for someone off the street to provide a manufacturer a quantitative formulation, and knock it off, but also the dosages can no longer be freely stated on the label. Enough said. Per their website, they do follow ingredient testing, as GMP advises, so regarding the formulation and the formula itself, nothing is changed, chill out keyboard warriors. Let's talk about the product itself! The powder is very, for the lack of a better term, powdery, if you're not careful, it will get everywhere! The form is as it should be, like flour, just ignore the smell, that's what real EAA smells like. Taste: it's unflavored obviously, and awful as it should be. While you could spend a little more to get a flavored version from other sellers, I bought this one for it's amazing value, and in doing this, you have to accept the caveat of it being completely disgusting. So you definitely want to mix it with something, you can't take it straight from the spoon like creatine. Use: everyone has their own routine use for this supplement, personally I practice intermittent fasting, specifically a meal every 48 hours full of protein, and to improve protein synthesis I take this at morning and at night. Unfortunately, since I do fast, I don't have the luxury of mixing this with juice, and have to mix it with decaf coffee, first world problems right? Results: you can definitely tell this is 100% EAA, usually in the morning ghrelin is telling me that I'm hungry, and immediately after taking my EAA it will curb the hunger completely. For those trying to put on muscle, this is definitely a great addition to your routine. This has improved my performance and the gains in the mirror and scale are apparent! TLDR: The product formulation has been updated per new labeling guidelines to protect their proprietary blend, dosages were not changed. I highly recommend this product, especially if you practice fasting. If you're new to EAA, mix it with some juice or something to mask the natural bad taste. With a solid routine and thoughtful nutrition, you can expect this to be a great arsenal in your quest to more lean muscle mass.

Works great, tastes terrible, and foams a lot lol. For newbies or the unfamiliar, this relaxes the body and can make you feel drowsy. Best to take after workouts when the rest of your day doesn't require fast or heavy movements. I was taking it with my Pre-workout since it nullifies the taste and foam, but it completely counters the alert effect. Would suggest taking it 3+ hours before bed, since you can wake up drowsy if taken right before sleeping.

I honestly cannot understand how anyone is able to drink this. This is, without exaggeration, the worst-tasting supplement I have ever tried in my life. The first time I put it in my mouth, I immediately gagged and vomited because the taste was so unbelievably bitter and unpleasant. I’m a former physique athlete, so I have tried countless supplements, amino acids, protein powders, pre-workouts, and products that definitely did not taste great. I’m very used to drinking things for the benefits rather than the flavor. But I have NEVER experienced anything even remotely this bad. I tried mixing it with lemon, fruit, and other flavors to cover the bitterness, and nothing worked. The taste is incredibly strong, bitter, chemical-like, and it lingers in your mouth afterward. I genuinely don’t know what I’m supposed to do with this huge bag now because I cannot imagine forcing myself to drink it again. I understand that this is an unflavored EAA product and I was not expecting it to taste delicious, but there is a huge difference between “unflavored” and something that is practically undrinkable. Do not waste your money unless you have an extremely high tolerance for horrible-tasting supplements. I truly doubt most people could drink this regularly. For me, it was an absolutely awful experience and a complete waste of money.

Makes me feel great after a work out. 1st thing in the morning I take a tablespoon. Thats about how much I can stomach bc it does taste god awful. To me it tastes like soy sauce/ vegimite/ Jägermeister, straight 🤮. Horrible. Do not drink this with water only, it will put you in a bad mood it tastes so bad. Instead of "unflavored" they should say taste like "Regret" bc youre gunna Regret tasting it. You gotta mix it with citrus, either Juice or flavor packets. I personally take 1 tablespoon serving at a time bc... its such a strong gross flavor taking less helps me taste it less in my mind. Serving size is 4 tsp. I take 1 tablespoon (1 tablespoon equals 3 teaspoons) I gave thos product 4/5 stars bc my bag didnt come with a scoop. I know the taste was going to be 💩 so I dont knock points off for flavor bc I knew already what I was signing up for. It makes me feel great is the only reason why im doing this to myself and its really not bad as long as you mix it with juice or some sort of flavor packet.

I appreciate real reviews so here is one for ya. When they say it tastes gross, I promise you that it is not an exaggeration. I thought they were just being dramatic. I genuinely thought I could just mix it with my electrolytes in the morning and shoot it back. I was dead wrong. That’s a good way to make yourself puke! But I’m no quitter. I saw that some said to mix it with OJ. That was the trick, and drink it with a straw! So yeah it’s nasty but if you want the benefits.. suck it up buttercup. It mixes well in orange juice, it’s amazing value for the money. I haven’t used it long enough to see how well it works but I can tell you that I haven’t needed a mid afternoon nap to function through my long days so that’s a plus! It’s worth the investment to me! Good luck!

Fair warning: Don't buy this and think you're going to mix it with water and drink it. It's not like creatine where it's odorless and tasteless...ALL plain EAA smells and tastes terrible. I've heard it compared to "sewer water" and have to agree that descriptor works. I gave the product 5 stars because of the quality, not as an indication that it has a wonderful flavor (but that's not the fault of the product). That said, I found that if I mixed it with a flavored protein shake it masked the smell and taste for the most part and was tolerable. Some other suggestions of mixing with coffee or juice didn't work out for me...I could still taste it.

Well the smell when you open the package and the taste are very hard to deal with. Product works great but its very difficult to drink, its almost like sipping on onion water or sweaty socks, wish it had masking flavor. Overall does the job my main issue is scent and taste are hard to deal with.

Whew wee that taste is awful. I love how people expect unflavored powders to not taste like anything. Unflavored just means no extra additives. Doh. One bad review sounded like one of those cry baby, blob shaped persons who complain and fight against anything healthy thing they try. The Disney adult. Yes this stuff taste awful but its pure EAA it is 9 amino ACIDS , key word, its going to have a naturally bitter taste like many many unflavored supps do. Try ALA in powder form and this stuff is easy comparing to the two. Just mix it in OJ and your good to go. Oj is the goat at masking flavors. Baking soda may also neutralize the acid taste, idk it works with other ones like ALA and L-Carnitine. It should do something here. Listen you are trading the taste for the value here by not buying any extra additives or paying for processing that makes it taste like coolaid. Fix the taste on your own IT IS NOT THE SELLERS FAULT you are uneducated. I have a who cabinet full of bulksupplements products and I havent been disappointed yet. Not by the quality or the value. 50 10gram servings of flavored EAA is twice this amount and you arent paying for anything but additives that isnt good for you, dyes and sugars, and artificial flavors. This is best taken after working out IMHO. Theres a that window that we want protein but its not actually protein we need then its amino acids we have protein in our bodies waiting to be used so long as we eat enough. Drinking aminos directly after or during the 2nd half doubles the amount of protein synthesis that happens. EAAs in this form hit the bloodstream within minutes of consumption they dont need to digest like a shake would to get aminos the longer way. Then drink your shake 30mins to 2hours after the workout. This can be used as an appetite suppression drink as well. I mean, Eaas function in everything and when you take it is as important as taken it. I prefer after workouts for hypertrophy, In between meals, in the morning for energy, Split up over the day. All with various goals in mind. Do your research.

Tastes and smells horrible

Good quality supplement at a value price point.

Son los mejores aminoácidos esenciales que he consumido, su sabor ciertamente es complicado de degustar al no añadir endulzantes ni colorantes, pero lo hace más saludable, y lo más importante es que he notado mi masa muscular aumentar con más facilidad que con productos de otras marcas.

The product is satisfactory and qualified.

Taste soo baddd
