MRM BCAA+G any takers?

**Ev52** · 04-22-2008, 11:28 PM

I'm almost out of Xtend and was looking around at alternatives and came across MRM BCAA+G. I like the fact that it is ajinomoto aminos and thought it might be a good alternative except nutra doesnt have it. Anyone tried it? What's it taste like?

I've used it before and the taste was pretty decent as far as I can remember. The one I had was lemonade flavored. I used to just scoop it into my mouth and chase it with water, so it must've been bearable.

But like you already know, you get what you pay for with this. It's glutamine and BCAAs...so if it's economical for you and has what you are looking for then go for it.

Xtreme Formulations ICE also uses ajinomoto aminos from US sources.

I hear ICE is great, was goin to get it but i got alot of Xtend still and its a bit much.
Just buy some BCAA and glutamine in bulk, cheap and easy.

I didnt know there was a difference in aminos?

**Ev52** · 04-22-2008, 11:52 PM

It’s not a difference in aminos but a guaranteed quality. The company Ajinomoto has been the premier supplier of amino acids for over 90 years, producing pharmaceutical grade amino acids for over 45 years. They were the first company in the world to identify and market amino acids, There are a lot of low quality aminos that come from china including glutamine made from human hair.

ahhhh, and what kindof pricing are we looking at for these aminos?

I see, makes sense. I have full and utter confidence in my Xtend! Core seems to be a great company as well and taste seems to be good people say.

Well, it depends ice is about $8 more then xtend and the mrm is about $6 more. It may be worth the extra few dollars if you want guarenteed quality.

Products can still claim to have COA's validating that they are indeed BCAA's etc., but that doesn't mean they are also tested for lead or animal sources containing disease such as Mad Cow.

MentalTwitch · 04-23-2008, 12:06 AM
