Yes, it tastes horrible. But I am so glad it's available in its natural, bitter form instead of camouflaged with nasty artificial junk! A good way to get it down is to mix the powder with just a tiny amount of water (about 2 tablespoons) in a tiny lidded container. Shake hard for fifteen seconds, let it sit for a minute, then shake again. At this point it will be semi-dissolved and you can belt it all back in one swallow. After taking it for over a year it's a natural part of my morning routine and I am used to the taste.I started taking this product in tablet form about 8 months ago. Although my reason for trying it had nothing to do with digestive problems, I noticed those problems had practically disappeared in the third month. Since I hadn't added anything else to my daily supplements, this product has to be the reason for the disappearance of those problems. After what seems like a lifetime of trying to find anything that would help, I couldn't be more pleased. I take 2 servings per day, one first thing in the morning and the second right before bed. One bottle lasts a month.Im big on natural products. Especially hygienic and nutritional ones. When I try a new nutritional items I always first try it with a neutral ingredient. In this case its water. This helps evaluate the taste and gives me an idea what to mix it with. Truthfully this product is packed with all the need aminos for a hard working person like myself. The taste is more neutral than anything which is perfect. I mix it with a flavored pre-workout powder. Its easy to drink. Does not leave an after taste thats gross like many natural products if youve tried many. On top of it all its got what i need in it. My body is performing as needed for work and exercise naturally. Definitely buying this product again.I am very pleased with this product. Since I started taking Nature's 9 Powder I have felt so much more energized. Coffee doesn't give me the same amount of energy. At first the powder was a little difficult to dissolve in a drink, but I've found that if I us a shaker bottle with juice it works great, especially on the go. The order also came with a user guide with suggestions on when it is best to take the supplement and some recipes. I'm excited to amp up my exercise routine and see some results for that as well. Overall very pleased with the immediate results.I stirred one scoop into a glass of juice. After nearly ten minutes of stirring, it still had not absorbed. I scooped some of the powder off the top and it still was dry enough to leave no moisture on my finger when I touched it. I tried taking a sip after a quick stir so the powder wouldn’t collect on my tongue, but I couldn’t get past the chunks. The flavor just makes the drink taste “off” like something your body doesn’t deem appropriate to ingest. I don’t know if it’s just me or if others have the same issue, but I’m not keeping this for $40 and replicating my annoyance every day. I’m fairly new to trying EAA powder supplements, so maybe this is what I should expect. I don’t know. Because of that, I gave it two stars rather than one.The reason I purchased this specific product was because it didn’t have additives or artificial sweeteners, and it’s label and product description are accurate - so that is a very important aspect I wanted to point out as there are other similar products that are misleading in those areas.I've always been fairly athletic and tend to go to they gym a lot. However, recently my body hasn't been able to keep up with my drive. I looked into supplements and found Nature's aminos and Im so so glad I did. I've been putting the powder in my shakes every day and I've been able to up my gym time. My main goal has been to tone and build muscle. With the supplement, I've felt an increase in energy and I am noticing good results in measurements! I highly recommend you get this supplement! Especially if you are skeptical of supplements. Nature's will change your mind :)Part of my New Year's Resolution was to live a more healthy style. I take Nature after my workout each morning and am feeling better than ever! I've previously tried other supplements and always quit after only a few days due to the awful taste. What I like most about Nature's 9 Powder is that it doesn't detriment the deliciousness of my post-workout berry smoothie. I've noticed that I've been running on the elliptical longer and lifting weights longer each day. I suspect that Nature's 9 is a big reason for this. i plan to purchase another batch of powder as soon as mine runs out.I started putting this in my energy drinks after my workouts and it has really been helping with my recovery. Often with other powders, the flavor really overwhelms the drink and I can’t really put them in a smoothie without it messing up the flavor but I literally could not tell the difference when I added this. Overall I feel like it’s a win-win, I get the benefits of a supplement without having to sacrifice with bad taste!
