OK, finally got a chance to try all my PowerChews samples so here's my review. Gonna review the Pre-workout separate since that will be more about the performance enhancement and a little less about the flavor.

Flavor: 10/10 (glutamine, BCAA & Creapure)​



These lil' mothers pack some good flavor for a supplement candy! I've sampled the ON amino chews before and I didn't like them one, they weren't bad but not candy-like (to me anyways). Powerchews weren't chalky-tasting like the others and really tasted like a Sweet Tarts (although not as solid as one).

Creapure and glutamine are almost flavorless so I wasn't so worried with them ,I was most skeptical with the BCAA chews since as we all know aminos taste horrid without flavoring and sometimes even with flavoring they are unbearable. I think just about anyone would find these quite pleasing if you're craving a little sweetness or just plain tired of drinking supps or swallowing copious amounts of caps/tabs.


Other Comments:

I'd like to point out that I experienced NO stomach discomfort from the Xylitol (sugar alcohol). I've had a few products (including protein bars) give me severe stomach cramps from sugar alcohols so I made sure to do a little experimenting with this. I took the Creapure chews pre-workout to see if it upset my stomach, nothing. Then, postworkout I took the BCAAs & the glutamine together to see if there would be any cramping, nothing still. :)

Good review. You're right that xylitol is the best sugar alcohol since it has health benefits and rarely causes stomach discomfort.

The one that stands out to me were the Supreme Protein bars... they sat in my stomach like a stone.

Great review man! These things are tasty for sure and addictive. Finally a candy that I don't have to feel bad about eating

You'll enjoy the preworkout chews I'm sure bro. For me, a 6 chew dose is perfect, but I also have a high tolerance for Stims. Looking forward to that review! ;)

Only complaints come from people who haven't tried them, IMO...

Well, that is the problem... The only people I can see bitching are the ones on a keto diet because it's hard to work the extra (albeit tiny) amount of carbs into their macros. If they are worried about taste (probably cause they tried ON's) then they'll just have to wait for more samples to go out... I think you guys nailed the candy/supplement hybrid.

There's the thing, it's keto-friendly (at least as far as I understand)! The carbs are all sugar-alcohols, so they are not metabolized like carbs but are instead processed in the liver (zero net carbs). No insulin spikes here, very even energy. It actually HELPS regulate blood glucose and improve gut health. Not to mention that it helps your teeth too!

Atkins, keto, low-carb friendly!

That's pretty neat, I didn't know they wouldn't have any effect on insulin.

Yep....a very nice thing for us that do intermittent fasting since spiking insulin during our fast is something we don't want!
