5.0 out of 5 stars Smells weird, tastes fine.
I don't believe it would be fair to remove a star for this because it's expected that "unflavored" will have its own natural flavor. But this unflavored BCAA smells like sweat and fermented soy (IYKYK, especially if you're Korean.). Every time I open it I am slightly grossed out by the smell. Regardless, it doesn't taste bad and it's the sacrifice I have to make to not consume more unnatural flavorings.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great supplement
A friend recommend this to me and I’m so grateful! It was difficult for me to get into working out at first because I would be so sore for daysss but this has helped with that so much. I take it before and after my work out and I feel so much better!
4.0 out of 5 stars bitter
I bought the non flavor. It is VERY bitter. I mixed it in my smoothie and it ruined it. I've tried it with just water and it was bitter then too. Not sure if the a flavor would be any better
5.0 out of 5 stars Good Product
Great product. Love the taste
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Flavor, Excellent Ratios, & Quality Ingredients! Return Buyer!
Awesome price and no weird additives! I have been losing weight/in calorie deficit (CICO) since March 15, 2017 and had my weight loss goal set at 1.5lbs per week (which is a -750 calorie deficit per day). I really dislike protein powders and don't eat a lot of meat, so I decided to add a BCAA to my day to *hopefully* help prevent muscle loss from dieting + working out. I am working out 5 days per week for about 2 to 3 hours daily. I take mostly strength-training classes (again....to preserve muscle while losing fat) mixed with a bit of cardio here and there, so I am burning a lot of energy and calories.This BCAA appealed to me because the 2:1:1 ratio is exactly what you're supposed to look for and typically only find in high-priced versions. On top of that, most of the expensive ones contain things like caffeine, green tea, and long list of "speedy" ingredients that really aren't necessary and that I didn't want. The fact that this contains Ashwaganda was a bonus because I've taken it before and it's very mild and only seeks to improve mood. I also liked the fact that this offers a variety of flavors/no flavor and is *allegedly* calorie-free.I drink this everyday in a concentrated form before my workouts...and then I take the remainder of the concentrated mixture (about 3 scoops total) and add it to my 64 ounce water and just sip on the diluted version throughout my workouts. I continue to add more water until I'm done working out and finish up whatever is left about an hour post-workout.Although I HATE fake sweetners, this one is easy to get used to compared to others. I got the Green Apple and it's basically a VERY SWEET Kool Aid. I don't know why the sweetness is quite so high...but the flavor is really tasty and adds well to water. There is no smell other than a muted "apple" scent and this doesn't typically irritate my stomach. Although BCAA's often cause nausea if you drink a lot DURING workouts, I found this only happened to me the first few days and then I adjusted the amount and my body also adjusted to having it. It only happened during extremely intense cardio workouts that sometimes make me a little queasy anyway. This is also very easy to mix. Although I have shaker bottles with the ball....I don't use them for this. I just shake it up in a regular water bottle the night before and stick it in the fridge for morning. No stirring or blender bottles necessary.What I don't quite understand is how it can be truly "calorie free". I've done some light reading and discovered that BCAA products don't have to list the calorie count as long as the calories *per gram* are less than 5. I hope that's not the case here because 5 calories per gram means that 1 scoop (7 grams) is about 35 calories. And since the recommended serving is about 20 grams per day...that quickly adds up to nearly 100 calories. To those not looking to lose weight or "cut"....that seems like no biggie. But even if you're drinking a low dose, 100 calories is a whole lot more than "calorie free".So I WOULD like to know if this is truly "calorie free" or the calorie count just isn't required due to the way the serving sizes are listed. Mind you...what I read could be total BS, but it's something to keep in mind if you're working out for weight loss or cutting and adding these calories without realizing it.Anyway, overall I'm thrilled with the taste, performance, and price and have ordered twice since my first purchase. I'm definitely pleased and although making muscle "gains" is nearly impossible while in deficit, I'm seeing nice muscle definition after losing 25 of the total 34 pounds I was looking to lose. I feel like this has been helpful both in preserving my existing muscle....as well as aiding in the DOMS (the sore muscles afterward) by just enough to notice. That's the best you can really expect from any BCAA and at this price point, the performance is incredible. Highly recommend and will continue to purchase (though if anyone knows about the calorie thing I mentioned, I'd love to hear back about it). Awesome product!
5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!
Tastes amazing and gives me a clean energy boost during workouts. No weird aftertaste and mixes well with water. Love it!
4.0 out of 5 stars Tastes great
Tastes great but not very refreshing. I find myself needing plain water after finishing this during my workout but I do plan to purchase more flavors as needed.
