What Amino Acids do you guys use? Which ones do you not go without? Favorite brands, etc.?

Results from any amino acids you've taken? Been researching aminos and the wide range of benefits they can be used.

I love Ajinomoto brand stuff. BCAA.

I use scivation xtend apple flavor. More grams of amino acids then most BCAA drinks. It also has niacin in it so you may get flushed from time to time. But niacin helps produce good cholesterol (HDL), something that goes to crap when on a cycle. It taste so good I put it in a big water gallon jug before work and sip on it all day.

BCAA is a must for me. Anyone use free form aminos for a specific reason?

Or a great amino formula?

If you could create your own amino acid formula drink.... what would you put in it?

I use Superio Amino 2222 Tabs. They are much larger than horse pills, but they have a shit ton of aminos in each dose.

This.... Exactly what I use and the apple flavor is great. I'll also add a scoop to my pre-workout drink. All the BCAA's you'll need.

I like Bragg Liquid Aminos Marinade for seasoning foods -- contains following 16 amino acids: Alanine; Arginine; Aspartic Acid; Glutamic Acid; Glycine; Histidine; Isoleucine; Lysine; Leucine; Methionine; Phenylalanine; Proline; Serine; Threonine; Tyrosine; Valine. Essential and non-essential amino acids in naturally occurring amounts from liquid soybean protein only.

I also have a multivitamin w/amino acids and my Whey protein iso has amino's added.

Hello Guys, Amino acids play vital roles both as building blocks of proteins and as intermediates in metabolism. Amino acids are critical to life, and have many functions in metabolism.
