Optimum NutritionSuperior Amino 2222 Tablets, Complete Essential Amino Acids, EAAs, 160 Count

I recently started using these and they’ve been a great addition to my supplement routine. Each serving provides 2.2 grams of a comprehensive blend of 18 different amino acids, which is fantastic for supporting muscle recovery and overall performance. The tablets are quite large and may be confusing that they are taken a different way but you do take them by mouth, but taking them with plenty of water helps. One of the things I appreciate most is the inclusion of both essential and non-essential amino acids, which ensures a well-rounded intake. The tablets are also free-form, meaning they are quickly absorbed by the body, making them effective for post-workout recovery. While the size of the tablets might be a drawback for some, the benefits they offer in terms of muscle support and recovery make them worth it. Overall, I highly recommend the Optimum Nutrition Superior Amino 2222 Tablets for anyone looking to enhance their amino acid intake and support their fitness goals.

I've been using these for over three years and I swear by them. They give me the energy I need to get through a workout and help with the recovery after. The pills, you should be warned, are gigantic. They are "horse pills". It's funny because on the bottle it says "easy to swallow". The thing is, though, after a short time I got really used to taking them and there's no issue now. Three years and I haven't choked yet. I highly recommend taking them with a big gulp of water. That is key. Also, at first at least, I recommend not doing it alone just in case. Finally, cutting them in half might seem like a good idea, but it's worse. Yeah, it's less to swallow, but with the pill in half it has jagged edges that hurt going down and actually make it harder to swallow

It's my first review, so I will try my best.------------------------------------------------------------ MY BIO------------------------------------------------------------I live in Georgia,Tbilisi. I'm 19 years old at this moment, I work out about 3-4 times a week(street workout bodyweight/or +16kg pull ups dips...etc), my friend told me about that product so I throw on it and bought one, I was drinking it every day,.on workout days 5pcson rest day 2pcs.No negative effects were discovered...From positive effects can count : strength-endurance gain about 10-15%, resistance to cold.TABS ARE REALLY BIG! when I first tried to swallow it, nearly choked to death... than broke it on 4 pieces and swallowed like nothing, not a big deal thought...I was drinking it for about 3-4 months, can't remember properly.... ( what matters that it was 320tab pack)------------------------------------------------------------ DIET-------------------------------------------------------------I was eating 2-3 times a daymorning : porridge 100-150gr with water( I don't like milk)midday: 2-3 eggs + some rice ( for bones)evening : pea soup ( traditional food called "lobio" has a lot of protein and carbs ++!)yeah no meat, I was 7-8 years old when stopped eating meat...( I eat cheese or other milk products + eggs)------------------------------------------------------------BODY SPECS------------------------------------------------------------I'm 1m 86cm - 6"1`my weight in first photo was 73-72kg, in second 80-82kg.Biceps:40~41cmChest - 120-124cmlags : what lags ? :D

These tablets are large and difficult to swallow for a 70+ year old guy, even after cutting them in half. I choked on a 1/2 tab today, but my spouse saved the day (and me) by applying a little Heimlich maneuver. I solved the issue by getting out the trusty blender and ground the monsters to a fine powder. Next time, I will order the amino in powder form.

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.
