NAKED BCAAs Amino Acids Powder, Only 1 Ingredient, Pure 2:1:1 Formula, Vegan Unflavored Branched Chain Amino Acids, Instantized All Natural BCAA Supplement - 500 Grams, 100 Servings

Been putting this into my morning coffee after a run. Seems to help recharge my energy and muscle maintenance. It's a bit bitter, which would increase the bitterness of black coffee, but is fine with cream and stevia or maple syrup. It mixes in easily, and seems to be good quality.

Mixes in to my protein smoothies perfectly. I see others talking about the smell but, honestly, I don't notice any at all. As for taste, I haven't tried it plain, with water, but I don't like my protein shakes with water either.I really appreciate the fact that this comes in an unflavored form. Hard for to find these days because absolutely everything flavored seems to have Stevia, sucralose, or some other artificial sweetener. I hate the taste of any sweeteners other than sugar or honey, and my digestive tract doesn't like the artificial stuff either. I don't drink or eat anything sugary either since I eat "clean", so this unflavored is perfect for me.I started working out hard at the gym 6 days a week back in February after a major surgery and cardiac arrest during that left me unable to get any real exercise for over a year. Naturally, my muscles were very sore the day after workouts, until I found this product. By adding in a scoop of Naked BCAAs, I rarely have soreness. That's in spite of my weekly increase in reps, sets, and machine weights.

This is my first time taking BCAA from Naked, and this may apply to first timers as well.When i first took it, directly mixed raw with water, i felt like throwing up, really. The taste was awful, obviously because it's my first time. The next day i was expecting it to be like this, but nope, it tasted normal, i was used to it i guess, which i was surprised by, but impressed.Why it works: I took it about 2 hours before my workout, and i can tell you, this is the REAL DEAL. I was able to go 5 pounds over on the bench press than i used to, my regular bench press was even normal for me, and it didn't feel that heavy. I went 5 pounds over on the dumbbell incline. Now i'm not saying this is a drug and the result may be different for you, but i've been working out for a while now, so that's something i was able to try. My workout lasted about 30 mins more than i used to, and i still feel like i'm not done working out. It's like taking red bull, but without the artificial ingredients. It's like it wakes up your whole body and brings out your natural reserved energy.I definitely saw improvements the same day and even few days after, in my workout strength, as for muscle improvements, it's too early to tell cause i just started using it few days ago. This is a product i'm definitely gonna buy again for sure. Now i don't recommend abusing it, because i don't take this everyday, i use it moderately. Very good product.

I wanted to try this because it’s good quality, and the sweeteners put in other brands BCAAs were doing a number on my stomach.This definitely made a huge difference in the digestive effects. Much easier to tolerate. But I realized why other ones are overly sweet. Unflavored BCAAs are extremely bitter. I usually can just mentally block something like that and chug it down. But the only way I can do it is with half apple juice and half water. But if you want a good quality product with no extra garbage, and can tolerate a very bitter drink every day, then look no further.

Yeah, everyone’s right, this stuff stinks...so what? Sure, it’s a powerful stink, but it disappears the moment you add it to any liquid, leaving absolutely no flavor (that I can taste) at all.So, I’ve been using this steadily for a little over a month now, and I really think it’s a great product all around. I was regularly sore after intense workouts from my trainer, I mean nearly every day I’d see her. Since using this (along with Naked Creatine, which I also love), I’ve had only one instance of intense soreness post workout, and even then it was while I was also very sick with a sinus infection, so I’m sure my body not being well overall didn’t help with my recovery. I love that it’s flavorless, too, so on days I screw up and don’t add it to my preworkout protein shake, I can just toss it in a tiny amount of plain water (like half a cup tops) in a blender bottle and just chug it to get it inside my body. The cost for 100 servings can’t be beat, either. I’ll definitely repurchase this when I run out.As a side note, the stank can serve a purpose from time to time if need be. We visited CO a few weeks ago and found ourselves with a few extra treats we couldn’t finish while there, so we stashed them in the BCAAs just in case we were pulled over on the way home. The smell of the BCAAs completely covered any smell our Colorado goodies had. So...bonus?!

Absolutely horrible taste. I accidentally bought unflavored and meant to buy cherry lime. Could not return or exchange so decided to try it so money wouldn’t go to waste. I figured since it was unflavored I could just add to my shake. I thought I was poisoning myself gagged and almost threw up. The next day I tried putting it in my yogurt. The same vile taste was still so strong I almost threw up again. Really did want to try cherry lime but now have extreme doubt it would taste any better. I was unable to get any customer support. First and last time will purchase supplements from Amazon.

Let me tell you!!!! I had a stubborn upper left shoulder pain from when I did pull ups. It was not going away no matter what!!! I even bought "N2G BCAA recovery" that eos fitness sold me and it was extremely sweet and I didn't see any results. After I bought this one because I'm truly a fan of Naked products it recovered my upper left shoulder pain and it strengthened my knees!!!! I'm a 40 year old female. This brand never ever disappoints me, you guys sell quality and you are worth every penny!!!!!
