Disappointed loyal customer
I’m super disappointed esupplements. I bought the “exact same product” back in May, and so when I went to reorder I just went back to my previous order, and hit buy again. It pulled up your “same product” so I bought it. You can see something has changed. Bottom line is you’ve lowered the bcaa’s to 6g per serving vs 8g. Plus there were 64 servings in the original, larger container, vs 60 in the new, smaller one. So there’s now 471g in the smaller container, vs the 500g that was in the original container, even though it costs $4.95 more. It is being marketed as the same product, but it clearly is not. You’ve changed formulation or scoop size for the bcaa grams per serving to have changed, and the volume to cost ratio is different.

So far so good...nope changed my mind.
So far so good...I like the price and the fact that there are no artificial flavors in the un-flavored option. I take before and immediately after my workouts on an empty stomach. The taste doesn't bother me...I've had much worse! I would much rather taste a supplement in its raw form than artificial sweeteners. Thanks for a solid product.<br />***Update*** After consuming two containers of this product and being very satisfied, I ordered my third. This time the product tasted very different and did not sit well with me when consumed on an empty stomach. I reached out to the company to find out if there was a change in the formula and was pretty much ignored. I am changing my review to 3 stars and will seek out a comparable product from another company.

Unflavored is supposed to taste bad. Nutricost is shifty & dishonest.
1. Unflavored is supposed to taste bad. If you buy it and complain about it you are just clueless. You have a choice. Buy flavored with crap sucralose or aspartame. Pay significantly more to get it flavored with stevia or monkfruit. Or buy unflavored and sweeten and flavor to your liking with your sweetener and flavoring of choice. True Lemon and other flavors they have are dirt cheap in bulk. Monk fruit and stevia are cheap in bulk. Sugar is real cheap period. A little sugar and stevia does wonders. Monkfruit works well too. You get more product for your money by buying unflavored and sweetening on your own.<br /><br />And this stuff works as well as any other bcaa powder I've tried. My big beef is their product changes. Used to be 90 servings and is now 83 servings yet they still charge the same. Tired of dishonest and shifty companies and nutricost is no different. They weren't even smart enough to change the pictures. So I'm done with them. I'd rather spend a little more on companies I trust. And nutricost has done this shifty behavior on multiple products. Just search across their powders and you'll see reviews where they have decreased product amounts yet charge the same. So screw them.<br /><br />I don't get how companies do this on the down low and not expect their customers to notice. They must think you're all stupid and don't have options to buy other products.

Excellent Results & Taste (Watermelon)
I’ve been use nutricost products for about 5 months now and they sell quality products at a very low price. I tested this out and it does help with workout performance and also helps recover from muscle soreness that happens after a day of intense workout. The next day I was barely sore, I noticed if I don’t take this BCAA before, during and after my workout session, then I’m painfully sore the next day. BCAA helps recovery time a lot. Also the watermelon flavor is great. The bottle says to add to 8 ounces of water, but I add 1-2 scoops to an 16 ounces of water instead. This product does actually work, and if you want something that will help you with the soreness, this product will help you with that. I also use nutricosts pre-workout, fish oil capsules, l-glutamine, creatine mono., etc. They sell many products that save our money and delivery quality products. I’m thinking to try out the coconut and pineapple flavor of BCAA. FYI: if you decide to order their unflavored-glutamine, you should know that it tastes really bad, they also have flavored l-glutamine, if you mistakenly bought the unflavored l-glutamine just mix it with BCAA (watermelon) and it does a great job of completely masking the bad flavor. Creative unflavored tastes good with water actually. But be careful with the unflavored products. I recommend buying small bottles of different flavors first and seeing which ones you like, mix stuff as needed. I hope this review helps. I didn’t see anyone leave a detailed and decent review to decided to go in depth. Also, for my pre-workout I add that to 500mL (17oz) of water not 8-12oz. It’s alsways good to add these powders to plenty of water for proper digestion, especially the pre-workout since it has caffeine. If you take a pre-workout with 300mg if caffeine you need to mix/drink plenty of water, otherwise you will get severe constipation. Other than that, Nutricost sells great products, just make sure you use them properly. I hope they come out with more products too.

No complaints
Great price, I hope the quality is still there. I use this brand of Citrulline Malate and it's definitely good quality. Any BCAA I've ever used that I considered good, have this certain property to them; it seems you can stir them all day, and the powder will just float on top. It just won't... get wet, I guess. This one follows suit, and tastes like BCAA and makes me extremely hungry after drinking it (good ones always do), so I "think" it's a quality supplement. Speaking of taste, don't be a sissy. Real supplements taste like crap. If you want something that tastes like Kool aid, go buy some Kool aid. I hear it tastes just like Kool aid.

Helped me regain appetite
I bought this with the hope that it would help me to eat again and honestly it did it’s job better than expected. I have been actively able to eat full meals and even after running out I have reestablished my appetite enough to continue on this path
