I'm going to need to read through the whole pdf tbh, but do you think this could alter any of the beneficial properties of aminoacids? The taste of EAAs puts me of sooo much tbh, if this stuff works without basically fucking it up i would love to have it and then mix a nice flavour on top of it, could perhaps even make drinking them enjoyable?? :o

Am i missing the point and does this really onyl include the taste of protein hydrolysate.

I've just finished a track session where i did crap in and im knackered so forgive me if i'm being a complete nob here!

Read somewhere it doesnt alter nutrtional properties, lot of research on hydrolyzed proteins but think it will have same effect on stuff like eaas etc....

ANy of you bitches got anything to say? or do none of you use the 'view new posts' option? lol

I have plenty to say, but am stimmed out of my head data processing atm so it would all be gibberish right now.

Can only read the abstract too. Arseting journal access. Send me the PDF and I can have an incoherent babbling about it at 5am. :D

Some articals suggesting the beta version is better. Noticed cell tech use the beta cyclodextrin in some of their products..

Another supplement altogether i know but read this in a journal..

"Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) was described to relieve poor taste, especially the bitterness of amino acids and
peptides (Sonoda et al. 2000). Bitterness of a 2% solution of a mixture of L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine was
reduced by 70% using 1% γ-PGA"

I can't understand why supplement companies havent looked more into this, as surely one of biggest reasons why people don't buy the powder is because it tastes fekkin awful. BSD looking lol?

This bitch will give his ten pence worth... shouldn't alter the amino acid content at all. There's no native protein structure to destroy with free form aminos anyway, and i think all they are doing is adding alpha cyclodextrin, a sugar which will hold the aminos togther and reduce the taste. If it does anything it would make the aminos slightly slower release as cyclodextrins are a binder.

From what I remember, BCDs are lipophlic on the inside and hydrophilic on the outside but I may be off. My interest was using them as a carrier for lipophilic substances.
All that I say is hypothetically speaking and I do not condone the use of illegal substances. You should also eat your vegetables and use high SPF sunscreen :roll:

made a drink ealier to take to gym and managed to make it taste great. All i did was this

Got 300ml of nice apple blackcurrant squash
6 -7 teaspoons BCAA's
2 table spoons gran sugar
1/8tsp of electroltyes
250ml or so of water

USE A BLENDER not a shaker.

Store in fridge for a while, it eventually completely dissolves altgeother.boom. Think mistake i amde before was always using a shaker which did fuck all.

liqui-vade by primordial performance?
also do an instantised bcaa- unsure of whether it does to the ass-tasting nature, or just easier to mix
