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

I’ll go ahead and say it so people understand it’s to be expected- whatever you mix this with, it will smell like someone farted into your water bottle. I mix mine with water and some sort of crystal lite type drink mix (i’d recommend doubling the amount you’d normally use to mask the taste) other than that it will have a slightly chalky bitter aftertaste but this isn’t used to enjoy a flavorful delightful beverage. This stuff is quality , it works as it should, it’s effective . If you don’t know what EAAs are used for then you shouldn’t be buying it anyways.

Mix with orange juice in a blender own the lowest setting and you can't taste it and theirs no foam if you use a low setting. All amino acid powders taste horrible. Mix them with orange juice and you can't taste it because of the acidity of orange juice masking the flavor of the amino acids. I've been buying this for years because it has exactly 3.3g of leucine per 10g, so I hit my max leucine threshold for muscle protein synthesis with a 10g serving.

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.

Yes, it tastes pretty terrible. But it's an excellent quality supplement for a low price, being bitter as hell is a tradeoff you have to make for the value. I mix it with lemonade or strong coffee and it's not too bad. Easy to mix and dissolves completely and easily. Works exactly the way it's supposed to.

I am in my 70's, and my son suggested a couple of years ago that I take essential amino acids to improve my protein intake. I have been taking another brand, but now they are adding a bunch of other things. I only want the amino acids! So I tried this from Bulk Supplements, since I had purchased other powdered supplements from them before, and they sell high quality products. Amino acids aren't the best tasting things, but the essential amino acids aren't really nasty like some of the non-essential amino acids. I decided to mix one compressed tablespoon of the Bulk Supplements EAAs in 14 oz. of water with 5 ice cubes, and for flavoring I used freeze dried packets of lemon, lime, or grapefruit, with 2 tiny scoops of stevia; then shake that up and drink it on an empty stomach first thing in the morning, at least 20-30 minutes before eating anything else containing protein. I don't actually feel hungry until about 11:30 am or later. When I first tried these EAAs by Bulk Supplements, I took out the scientific scale our grandson used for his science project, and weighed the powder. It actually came to 10 grams for a tablespoon and 1 teaspoon (1-1/3 tbsp), exactly as stated on the bag. I'm too lazy to use two measuring spoons, so I use one tablespoon and get slightly less. Taking these Bulk Supplements EAAs gives me more energy and strength for daily tasks and for my exercise routines. I love these, and I immediately like these better than what I was taking before. I highly recommend these Bulk Supplements EAAs. UPDATE: Now I am using 1 TB Bulk Supplements EAAs, 2 scoops (1/32 of tsp.) Stevia, and 2 TB Silicia Organic Lime juice, shaken with 14 oz of water and 5 ice cubes. I do this when I wake up, and then again before going to bed. I am figuring 33 gr of protein per tablespoon, based on comparing it with vegetarian protein. Does anybody have a better estimate of the protein equivalent??

Get the flavored kind. I usually prefer unflavored because my gatorade powder already adds flavor but this EAA powder tastes truly terrible, even with gatorade powder. I wonder if you could just eat it with a spoon then wash it down with some water. Worst tasting supplement powder I have ever tasted.

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

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。
