Should BCAA's be avoided late at night due to their insulin response. I have been taking Xtend throughout the day including PM but I read that this can cause an insulin response that leads to greater fat storage, just as carbs do at night. Is this true and do you think BCAA's should or shouldn't be avoided at night?

Uh, I think that's splitting hairs mate...Only high GL (Glycemic Load) should be worried about imo.

Yeah, I do beleive the samething as Ziri. I do take them in the PM in between my last 2 meals. I don't think that would make a huge diff. especially if you sip it during the day.
