CV & RJ Amino empty stomach vs after meal Conflict

[Guest]

Hey there CV & RJ ~

You both stated that the amino should be taken on an empty stomach. In the pamphlet I received with my supplements: #9) Amino Complete (last paragraph) "Amino Complete is best if taken "after" a meal."

Am I reading this wrong. When should I take this then? On an empty stomach or after a meal. Can someone enlighten me? I'll arrange my schedule accordingly then.

Thanks!

Hey Breaker. Sorry for the delay in replying.

They probably want to make sure that you have the pancreatic acids and stuff in your system to break down the aminos and use the protein to shuffle them to the right locations. You can wait 30-45 minutes after eating and get the empty stomach effect without the possible irritation if you have low pancreatic acids and digestive acids. Just don't take them WITH the meal because they will compete with everything else and possibly get lost in the process.

The only other time that I mix with a "meal" is when I am doing a liquid protein with some juice or fruit mixed. Eggs are plentiful in full spectrum amino's so that is a really good way to double dose naturally. Eat some eggs for breakfast or have a whey protein shake. Easy on your system and capsule free!

That's ok cv, thanks just for replying! I think I'll go ahead and take 2 at BF and 2 MM so I'll be stomach mostly empty. It's too much to take all 4 after lunch as then I'm taking about 10 supps then, ugh. Some of the medical is mind boggling :
Thanks!
