PowerFULL advice AKA Beta-IMPORTANT!

Do not take PowerFULL with food take 15-20 before eating, and I been taking it with BCAA powders which seems okay.

The acidity of protien will degrade one of the ingredients...just found it out today and it was confirmed by one beta tester who was non repsondent until he took it on an empty stomach.

PS--Beta testing saved many alot of money and earned us alot of money. Why don't most companies do this....$$$$$...maybe?

I find most supplement to be most effective taking 15-30 minutes before eating and first thing in the morning.

I also find that Whole food meals hinder absorption and Liquid meals do not.

To me safe take all USPlabs supplements 15-30 minutes before eating or working out.

USPLabs I appreciate you writing that on the page where you are selling PowerFULL. In 2 days after taking it on an empty stomach I gained 2 lbs, as opposed to 0 lbs while taking it on a full stomach. so yes DEFINITELY on an empty stomach.

I generally take my Pre-Workout Cissus Rx with a protein shake. So you say this is fine to do?

I guess I should probably space out my breakfast a little farther since I currently only have about 5 minutes from Cissus to breakfast.

Take your time bro,you must be BUSY!I look forward to seeing your post on this though.I am curious,if its the protein in the meals that is degrading the ingredient/s in the POWERFULL then how is a liquid meal with protein powder in it not going to degrade it?Due to the time/digestibility factor or...???This is confusing me.So when u get a chance please enlighten us.I have been taking the cissus rx,camphibolic,and POWERFULL since i read this post like this.
AS SOON as I open my eyes,first thing I do.First 'meal of the day is a protein shake(special home blend contains protein powder,oats,honey,a few other items on occasion)so Im wondering if just how long I should wait.Im wondering if 15min for some is enough while others 30 is necessary.I guess it depends on the person and their personal digestive track and what they ate?
Like now,I just waited 10 minutes so far after taking my triple stack.I am about to go eat everything in my fridge I cant wait any longer lol!

Any problems with absortion if drinking crystal light while taking the pills 30min before eating???

<------This guy can't swallow pills in general, but its extra hard with just water in general, something with a little flavor usually works...

I know I said in another thread that I would not be trying until I saw bloodwork but I have been hormone free for over 6months so if it does cause some shutdown, no biggie I will just do a proper PCT. I am asking this question because today is my second full day and nothing noticeable yet..
