Youre right about the liquid egg whites...Im also hooked on Raw Milk...talk about a complete food source.

    Time for peeps to eat smarter...not more.

    The brand I use is EFX Pure Liquid Amino Elite...They retail for $25 bottle, but I get them for about half that.
    These are the ones Phil Hernon sells at professional muscle.com. I enquired with him but never went ahead. After reading this I think I'll order a case now.

    I wouldnt use them as my ONLY protein source, but my primary protein source, I think.

    I think its dangerous to completely cut out other protien sources and risk the other goodness some of the sources contain (nutrients/minerals). For example, fish containing EFA's, *****'s etc...Do you agree?

    Many members/bodybuilders there have also reported an increase in vascularity too?

    Yes, I agree with you 100% about getting protein from other sources in addition. I am using raw milk, soy milk, talapia, tuna, chicken, egg whites. I am staying away from red meat for the time being. I am only going to use the LBAs as my only source for 3-4 weeks tops as a pre-comp tool. I have noticed a change in vascularity in my upper torso the most. My body temp and mood is enhanced as well.

    I really think that you'll like them, Swifto...Also, I drink these during my workouts and Ive noticed that my energy levels and intensity have increased as well. Its also nice to know that your pwo meal will have a head start.

    For me, a case is around $250 shipped to the UK. How long would you say that would last? It being a primary protein source, not sole?

    How many teaspoons or tablespoons do you take per day?

    I usually take in around 2-3 shakes of Whey, Dex, BCAA's, Creatine, L-Glutamine per day, so are you suggesting I can totally substitute the BCAA's and Whey for LBA's? Do you still take in powdered BCAA's?

    Sorry, few questions there...
