Review on TRU BCAA Powder - Vegan-Friendly Plant Based BCAAs, Zero Calories, No Artificial Sweeteners or Dyes, 30 Servings (Pink Guava) by Paul Romero

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The best BCAA blend I have found to rebuild my body!

As someone who has blended their own smoothie with selected raw BCAAs, I can tell you it's MUCH EASIER and more enjoyable to take! I find the taste MUCH better and even refreshing! However, if you compare it to other products with sugar or crappy sugar substitutes (like sucralose, maltodextrin, etc.), it doesn't taste delicious. Once you've tried additive-free BCAAs, you'll understand how gross they are. In truth, I have a very high tolerance for natural, unflavored, or earthy flavors, but all I could do was choke on pure BCAAs until I used up my 3:1:1 blend. I decided on a different flavored blend and tried this one. I am very happy! It's amazing how well they were able to mask the TERRIBLE taste of BCAAs. Now I've tried both pink guava and passion fruit flavors and passion fruit seems much tastier to me. This combo is 2:1:1 of the big three instead of 3:1:1 like I used to take, but it's ok. I take this thrice a day to keep my metabolism up, give me energy to exercise and ensure my body maintains and even gains muscle mass when in a calorie deficit. So far, so good! I appreciate the reduced and high quality ingredient list and the fact that they didn't add caffeine or fortified it with vitamins or anything. I like to add each vitamin etc individually so I was very happy to find a BCAA blend that had less. The fact that it's vegan is a bonus! I also love that I can add other powders (L-Ascorbic Acid, L-Glutamine, DMG, Moringa Powder, etc.) to one scoop and there's just enough flavor to mask the extra powders. Likewise. My only complaint is that the price is quite high for the small amount you get. But that's currently the price I'm willing to pay so that I no longer have to take pure, tasteless BCAAs. All of the reviews that give stars for taste have never tried plain BCAAs in my opinion, or ever taken any blends that have sugar or horrible sugar substitutes in them. No, it doesn't taste slappy or cool-aid, but for BCAAs with clean and minimal ingredients, it's DELICIOUS! TRUST! I sincerely hope this review was helpful to someone else! And yes, I paid full price for it. Feel free to ask any questions!
