Love this!!
Love the Blue raspberry flavor-it tastes like blue fun dip! My husband and I have tried it during different times in the day—morning wake-up, preworkout, post workout. No jitters, great taste, not chalky. We absolutely love it! Looking forward to trying different flavors!

Will this keep me up at night. i want to take this as a recovery agent but i expect to go to bed at least an hour or two after the fact. Will this make it hard for me to sleep, if so is there a better supplement for me?
BEST ANSWER: Any energy drink taken before bedtime can potentially effect your sleep. If you are taking this two hours before bedtime and before your workout, most of it should be processed by the time you go to bed.

Is this good to take if your a diabetic..??
BEST ANSWER: I would say NO. Some amino acids help with insulin sensitivity but caffeine and type 2 I’m not so sure about. This would be a question for the customers doctor. I would recommend giving the customer a sample of product a printout of the nutritional facts so they can be presented to one doc

BEST ANSWER: You generally want to use any supplement by the expiration date. If you have an expired product, it will not be harmful, but will be less potent that a "fresh" one. If the expiration date has not passed, the product is fine to use and should just as potent now as it was when it was packaged.

Can I mix whit creatine?
Is this product gluten free?
I see that the amino chews don't have as much aminos in the blend as the powder drink why does it have less and which one is more beneficial?
BEST ANSWER: Both products provide Optimum Nutrition's proprietary Amino Energy Blend. The chews have 2.1 grams per serving, while the powder has 5 grams per serving. I suggest choosing the one that fits your lifestyle the best, remembering that the powder must me mixed with water, while the chewables are quick and easy for use on the go.

How will prodcut affect my kidney and high blood pressure ?
BEST ANSWER: This product should not adversely affect your kidneys. However, it will raise your blood pressure. This is due to the fact that it contains both tyrosine and phenylalanine, which are two amino acids that can potentially cause a dangerous increase in blood pressure. These particular amino acids are also associated with rapid heart beat, fatigue and dizziness.
