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.

Should have known
This was the third product I’ve purchased from this company with only poor experiences. I carry a large 60oz water bottle with me to work everyday and thought it would be nice to be able to add a little something to it so it’s more beneficial than just the water. The description said that it was flavorless and dissolves well. This sounded great since I add a small amount of flavor already to my water. I added the amount it said to mix with a glass of water (8oz) to my 60oz bottle. You would think more water would be better for mixing and diluting any flavor that might be present. I shook my bottle for close to an hour total and I was still getting chunks of powder when drinking. On top of that there is most definitely a flavor and it’s horrible. If the flavor is this strong in 60oz I can’t imagine if you were to add it to just a glass. The last two items I purchased from this place were also in powder form and claimed to be flavorless and they weren’t. I was really hoping the third time would be a charm for this but it was a dud. Sadly I will be avoiding this company and buying my supplements elsewhere.

Great EAA’s & value
Great EAA’s & value. Yeah it doesn’t taste or smell great but they’re EAA’s what do people expect? Lol of course EAA’s don’t taste good. The only way you’re gonna get EAA’s that don’t have that are ones with extra junk added like artificial sweeteners. I just take it with my protein shake at the same time which covers the bad taste a little. But note that yeah, on its own, super gross haha. Still very worth it to me.Edit: I had one batch that smelled more than usual so I left the bag open for about a day & the stronger scent went away. That can happen to EAA’s if exposed to heat for too long. Don’t expect it to get rid of a regular level of smell that comes from EAA’s though, EAA’s that don’t have artificial sweeteners & stuff are gonna naturally smell anyway. I got EAA’s from Now Foods previously & they have the a similar taste & smell as Bulk Supplements. I’ve stuck with Bulk Supplements for ~2 years now on my EAA’s due to price & the COA I requested on one batch showed a good leucine profile with 3g leucine per serving.

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.

レビューを一切見ないまま注文。その後に全てが英文のレビューを翻訳してみると余りにも酷くて、思わず返品しようかと思ったけど、結局は買って正解。ただ、ベルギーから到着するので日時が当初の予定より大幅に遅れて来る覚悟が必要。まずい理由は以下を参照。（他社のEAAも数種類飲みましたが、どれもかなりの味です。ここのは若干飲みやすいほど）星の減点の理由は到着遅延と、成分表を載せなくなった点です。—————–EAA（必須アミノ酸）が「臭くて苦くてまずい」と感じられるのには、ちゃんとした科学的な理由があります。これは含まれているアミノ酸の種類とその性質に起因しています。■ 苦味の主な原因成分• ロイシン（L-Leucine）　筋肉合成に関与する重要なアミノ酸ですが、非常に苦味が強いことで有名です。EAAの中でも特に高濃度で配合されており、全体の苦味の大半を占めます。• イソロイシン（L-Isoleucine）／バリン（L-Valine）　ロイシンと同じ「分岐鎖アミノ酸（BCAA）」に分類され、こちらも独特の苦味を持ちます。特にイソロイシンは薬品臭と苦味の両方が強い。• ヒスチジン（L-Histidine）／リジン（L-Lysine）　やや渋味や金属っぽさのある風味で、後味の悪さや“薬っぽさ”に関与。⸻■ 臭さの原因• メチオニン（L-Methionine）　このアミノ酸は硫黄化合物を含むため、腐った玉ねぎや卵のような臭いを感じることがあります。EAA特有の“臭み”の主犯格です。• トリプトファン（L-Tryptophan）　独特の動物的な匂いを持ち、湿った布のような匂いを感じる人もいます。⸻■ 甘味料でごまかせない理由たとえフレーバーで味付けをしていても、EAAの**“水に溶けきらない性質”と強い苦味・臭みの主張力**が強すぎて、人工甘味料ではカバーしきれません。しかも、甘味料（スクラロースやアセスルファムKなど）が加わることで、かえって**「甘苦い」「薬臭い」**という複合的な不快感を生み出すことも。⸻■まとめEAAが「まずい」のは、✔ 苦味の強いロイシン・イソロイシン・バリン✔ 硫黄臭のあるメチオニン✔ 動物的な匂いのトリプトファンといった**必須アミノ酸の“素の姿”**ゆえです。つまり、まずいけど、それは成分がガチで純粋って証拠でもあります。
