Since Leucine is providing an insulin spike, am I correct in assuming that fat should not be consumed too closely to the consumption of Leucine? For instance:I work out 5:30AM. PWO: Whey / Leucine / CreatineIf I am taking coffee to work with me (7:30 - 8:30) should I not be adding MCT?
After 30-60 minutes you would be fine.
+1 You can have the MCT Oil in the coffee if you want, but could also use CO.
That's how mine is….I find if I put it in a glass bottle (I have used kombucha bottles) and let it sit while I workout, then it is better…not perfect, but better. And it is still nasty but I can shake it in the bottle, shoot it down, then I follow it with my PWO shake.
The Leucine I have mixes terribly, and tastes disgusting. Any recommendations?
I saw this on youtube and it works the best for me... lol.I take my scoop of Leucine, and a big glass of water. I hold my nose, throw the leucine in the back of my throat (DON'T BREATH!!) and then quickly force it down by drinking the glass of water. (Breath.) Then, still holding my nose, I quickly eat something tasty and swallow before letting go of my nose. Like fruity pebbles, or my PWO shake. That way all I taste is yummy items, and its a good way to get in some extra water. 🙂It looks a little funny, and the hubby laughs at me, but I just don't want to taste any part of the Leucine.

haha mine went in the trash.. not worth going through all that for something I noticed no extra benefit from..
Haha i dont get it.. i rlly dont find it that bad at all – i throw it in my shaker with a scoop of protein 25 g creatine and some sea salt and pound that shit.
I'm with Sammy, I take it as a shot even with leucine clumps at the top from poor mixing haha. If anything spend the extra cash for True Nutrition's Instantized Leucine. It mixes better.

+1Caffeine powder tastes WAY worse.I either drop it in the shake and don't even notice it, or I do it with creatine in like 1-2 oz of water and just shoot it. Almost always in a shake though.

I tried it in my shake one time and it was still gross in there! I prefer to shoot it and chase with my yummy shake.
Well, last night I found another way that you never want to take Leucine. I accidentally spilled it all over my sweet potato pancakes… even a good amount of syrup couldn't cover the taste.
