I just found the ingredients by browsing to another site.

Ingredients: L-Leucine, L-Glutamine, L-Valine, L-Isoleucine, Artificial Flavor and Color, Pyridoxine HCL, Sucralose, Acesulfame-K.

We are people that take care of our bodies enough to buy supplements like this... why do supplement companies assume we are happy using artificial sweeteners?!?

Would you rather us use sugar?


Also, these sweeteners are indeed safe. Please check out these articles:

You can always buy Bulk BCAAs and unflavored glutamine (Glutaform), but it will taste pretty bad.




Thanks!

Yes use sugar, or maltodextrin. If you consuming too many calories, just push a little harder in your training, do more cardio or something. Sugar,dextrose all raise insulin which GREATLY enhances absorption of these aminos into muscles for maximum benefit. This is from someoe who can eat whatever the hell they want and not put any fat on, but still some people dont like acelsulfame K or sucrolose or any of the other artificial sweeteners. Granted people look at calories before they buy, but just list along side how much longer they gatta run on the tradmill to burn those calories. People want an east way to get fit.. Not gonna happen.

sugars aren't just calories, so pushing harder isn't necessarily going to do anything. Simple carbs induce an insulin spike which is positive for fat storage. Either way, what if you are pushing it to the limit, why add something to limit its effectiveness.
