Review on πŸ‹ Thorne Research - Amino Complex - BCAA Powder for Enhanced Sports Performance - Refreshing Lemon Flavor - 8.1 Oz by Stefan Eddy

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Acidic Burst of Energy

BCAAs instead of Beachbody Pre-Workout? Also, half a scoop of Beachbody Pre-Workout BCAAs tastes a little better. I like the taste, but the substance that collects at the bottom is too acidic to touch. I don't sit and sip what's left downstairs and always flush it down the drain. I like half a scoop of this with a full scoop of pre-workout BB before my morning workout. It is also a diuretic and causes urine to turn yellow. Hydrate them well. The reason I chose this brand is because Stew Smith recommended it. I've used BCAA before and was looking for a more natural pre-workout supplement than Beachbody. I just don't think this product is good for my health and have tried cutting down on caffeine after hearing some theories from Dr. Gabor Mate had read and reflect on health issues associated with hormones and take what appears to be a more holistic approach to healing and balance. I'm still exploring this idea. BCAAs might be something I keep, I haven't quite made up my mind yet. I don't prefer the taste but the powder is very very high quality and quite smooth. This is an interesting and clearly high quality product. I get a small boost of energy, but not quite the same as caffeine.
