## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these expensive pills an improvement over drinking milk?**
A: Hahahaha! 
"I don't drink milk, it's for babies" - Arnold Schwarzenegger

**Q: My canister was sealed, but the canister was only half full of powder.  Is that normal?**
A: Yes. It's normal. I am currently enjoying your second half as we speak.  I would weigh the container as it's the only true way of knowing if you got shorted.

**Q: Is this BCAA Lactose free?**
A: Yes it is, no problems what so ever just make sure you drink enough water when taking them so they end up in your stomach if not you might burp and might taste the BCAA powder :) hope this helps!

**Q: Is one serving actually enough? I heard you need 10g of BCAA before workout. One serving only has 1g...**
A: 2.5 grams of leucine is the proven amount needed to trigger protein synthesis. That's 5g total or 10 pills. I'm not sure why the doses on these are so small but I figure if an 80 pound asian girl needs 2.5g of leucine then going with more BCAAs would probably serve you better. That's an insane amount of pills but this is to avoid using the powder that stinks and tastes awful. Obi Obadike recommends 10g of BCAA pre and post Workout. 20g of BCAAs is 40 pills!

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 自重トレーニングのオトモに使用中
*by F***E on October 10, 2018*

未使用と比較し、約２週間でもはっきりとした差がでました。個人の感想です（笑）カプセルは粉末よりコスパが悪いけど、１．摂取時の水分摂取量を減らせる２．味を気にしなくて済む３．携帯が簡易この３点が価格面を上回るメリットなので、ひとまず継続予定。

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ お値打ちです
*by 匿***名 on February 22, 2018*

飲み始めてから調子が良く、価格もお値打ちだと思います。3度目の購入です。

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 飲みにくい！
*by 誠***也 on May 2, 2018*

ただそれだけ、量もあるし、コンパクトで持ち運びも簡単だからいいんだけど…よくよく考えたらパウダータイプの方が安上がりなんだよね
