    Universals Lemon Lime BCAA's






    Hey everyone. I recently just won the BCAA promo Universal was running so I thought I would review the product. I just received it today in the mail. I have not used it yet but will update.

    First Impressions

    The packaging is the sweet Universal packaging and the product container is very very small haha. The nutrition label says it has 27 servings. The product is very powdery and contains a small scoop. It smells very similar to Lemonade Xtend. I also received a real gains sample which I will give a mini review for. Be on the look out for updates!

    I know this is an odd question, but does it contain any natural citrus or anything like that (citric acid) to get the lemonade flavoring? Will probably say on the label.

    Would love to scoop some of this up (haha) but cannot eat/drink a lot of citrus...

    Keep us updated though. Any product from Universal is usually not a letdown.

    Citric Acid is listed as the first ingredient under "Other ingredients:"

    Not a problem bro,

    I think just about every citrus flavored BCAA powder will probably have it in there. There are other flavors you could get that I am sure wouldnt have it in it. You just a big fan of citrus?

    Yeah I figure they will. Indeed, I love me some lemonade flavored sups -- they always seem to get rid of that "taste".

    I'll have to see if CL Green Mag or White Flood have it in them as I have taken them in the past no prob. Thanks again.

    It has 27 servings in it. But I am guessing It would be best to double dose it. So more like 13.5 servings lol.

    First Dose

    Taste: A very nice lemon flavor. Not so much like lemonade just lemon drink. I can taste the actual BCAA taste afterwards but its not bad. Pretty smooth flavor. Definitely would be good to by some seltzer and make some Lemon Lime faux soda!!!

    Mixability: Mixed very nice. Universal BCAA Stack mixed about as well or a bit better than most BCAA products I am familiar with.

    Recommendations to consumer: Mix it and put some ice in it. Definitely makes it more refreshing.

    Recommendations to Universal: make the scoop longer, I can tell the more I use the harder its going to be to get all of it out. Maybe make the stick on the scoop about double the size?

    If your a lemon fan and you dislike other products give this a try its bit different then the flavor of Xtend's lemon BCAA's.

    What is the ratio of this reps??

    Subbed!!! Yeah, I noticed that about the flavor as well... But, if you play around with the water levels, you can hit a sweet spot...

    I have really been enjoying the convenience of such a small tub. I can easily take it along anywhere I go!

    ?

    Same as for the other flavors... the classic 2:1:1 ratio for leucine:valine:isoleucine
