Review on πŸ‰ Modern's EAA+ Watermelon: Essential Amino Acid Powder for Post Workout Muscle Recovery & Hydration - 8g EAAs, 6g BCAAs, Sugar Free - Ideal for Men & Women, 30 Servings by Jamie Smith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best EAA of the three I've tried

I've tried three different EAA brands that have good reviews for at least 6g of BCAAs and hydration: Mutant GEAAR (blue raspberry) Modern Sports Nutrition EAA+ (blue raspberry) Nutrex Research EAA+ (Blueberry Lemonade) They're all fine, but I'd say Modern Sports Nutrition is better as Mutant is in second place. Glass. Nutrex was the most difficult to mix and left the most residue at the bottom of the jar. See photos. Flavor: I found Modern Sports Nutrition to be the most delicious - slightly tart, not overly sweet, with no aftertaste or weird flavors. The mutant was fine. Nutrex was the sweetest of the three, but it also had a hint of bitterness. Miscellaneous: Nutrex is the only one where the instructions say you have to shake the container before each use, resulting in having to search for a buried scoop every time. The Mutant has a scoop with an inverted funnel to make getting the powder into the water bottle easier, but that makes it more cumbersome. The mutant has 4 g of leucine compared to 3 g for the others. Mutant is made in Canada, Modern Sports Nutrition is made in the USA and the Nutrex canister does not indicate where it was made.
