SUPERIOR AMINO 2222

These things are monsters! If you don’t make it a regular practice of swallowing shooter marbles, then you’re going to have a struggle here. To call these things horse pills would be an insult to horses on a global scale and would likely put you in the ASPCA’s hot seat for animal cruelty. I tried cutting them in half...then in half again but, that left me with 32 jagged edges to plow my esophagus like a John Deere in a in a potato field. Thankfully, you only have to do this prior to every meal and before and after workouts. 5 times a day is cool but if I had to do this 6 times a day it would be a deal breaker. My best option to date was crushing them between two spoons. This revealed that it won’t dissolve to any liquid but it will cake between your teeth as you drink it leaving and aftertaste that will make you want to chew aspirin to get some relief. This would still be a favorable alternative to trying to swallow them whole. As for their effectiveness, they do their job. Can’t complain there. So, if you buy these and can muster up a plan to get them down, you’ll see results. I’m considering putting the remainder of my jar in a Nutri Bullet (not a sponsor) and just weighing out the powder per dose. If I ruin the whole bottle...I’ll sleep without remorse tonight.

UPDATE! 3Jun20: I’ve been using these daily for some time now and they’re great. They’re still horse pills but, as I intended to do in my original review, I’ve been blending them up in my NutriBullet. It works great and they actually dissolve super fast. Smoothies are perfect for them but if you’re in a pinch for time, just a little juice or water works perfect. They’re tasteless, too, so you don’t get that medicine taste. Just the flavor of the juice.

My friend told me about these and he was paying the same price for half the quantity in a local sports shop. So I purchased these on Amazon and it's a huge bottle and yes they are horse sized pills. I have no problem taking 2 at a time with 8 ounces of water. But if you are sensitive you can easily break them in half and take them that way. As far as if they really work, I would say that's objective. I take one or two before my workout and one after, they do seem to help with less leg pain and cramping. But I also take calcium, magnesium and zinc tabs that stop leg cramping well.
