The bitter taste ruins everything you put in it and doesn't give you a boost of energy.

I really wanted to love this thing. I love everything else I've tried from Naked Nutrition but this was a total failure for me. The biggest issue for me is the taste - it's SO bitter. I first used it with Sprouts Vegan Chocolate Protein Powder and the flavor was mostly hidden. I went back to Orgain vegan chocolate and Garden of Life Protein & Greens chocolate when I was done with Sprouts powder and the flavor became MUCH more obvious to the point where my protein shakes were messed up and they became almost inedible. But it wasn't until one day I forgot to include it in my garden of life that I realized that THAT stuff was the cause of the awful taste. I "forgot" to give it to Orgain the next day and WOW it was drinkable again. It made both of them so incredibly bitter that swallowing was a chore that I began to despise. While creatine and naked BCAAs are perfect for drinking when just mixed with water (both are completely unflavored), they are completely undrinkable when just mixed with water, again because the bitter taste is all you get, but on its own it's SO bad you'll probably spit it out. I wasn't impressed with the benefits I was supposed to receive either. I've tried Cellucore C4 (I think that's the name?) up to 3 times since my roommate bought it and each time I've had a noticeable boost of energy, even a slight tingling sensation for 20 minutes of consumption. Nothing with that. Since I stopped using it about 10 days ago, the intensity and duration of my workouts has not decreased, in fact it has improved. Maybe it gave me a more positive outlook on my workout because I didn't have to drink a terribly bitter protein shake beforehand lol. ruin everything you put into it. I mean actually Sprouts protein used to be my favorite then I started hating it and now after buying a serving of the powder this week and just mixing it with Nakeds Creatine and BCAAs I realize what is why The reason I started hating it was because of the energy powder. Maybe flavored is better, I don't know, but if I were you I'd go ahead and skip this stuff. save yourself
