Flavor Name:Fruit Fusion|Size Name:30 Servings
I've always taken my amino acids mixed in with my whey protein shakes. Can't really do this with the different flavors so I tried taking them separately for a while. Good product, high quality aminos, I just prefer to take my aminos with my protein which is chocolate flavored, prefer the tasteless powder so I don't taste them in my shakes. Also add some DAA as a natural test booster, 100 Grams (3.53 Oz) D Aspartic Acid (DAA) Bulk Powder. Lasts me a couple months which is good for me. I do think everyone engaged in any type of intense physical activity should take some form of amino acids, they do help me a great deal with my training.

Flavor Name:Orange Cooler| Size Name:0.6-Pound|Amazon Verified Purchase
First, I am not a body builder, but I do workout hard and a lot. I have found this product helps with muscle recovery. This is due to many of the amino acids in the product which are part of the AMIN.O. ENERGY name.
Here's the gist of the ingredients per serving size which is 2 small scoops (9 grams):
Amino Acids: Taurine, Glutamine, Arginine, Leucine, Beta Alanine, Citrulline, Valine, and more...
Energy Stuff: Caffeine, Green Tea Extract, Green Coffee Extract
(Not all the amino acids are used for recovery. For example, arginine/citrulline are used for nitric oxide production -- the N.O. in the name.)
I see a lot of reviews on the other flavors of this product saying it did not give the intense workout compared to some other products. I might surmise that it is because this is more of an "all purpose" product targeted to many sports. One thing it doesn't have is creatine which I consider a must-have as a pre-weight lifting supplement. So, if you use this as such, you should consider adding a creatine (or kre-alkalyn) supplement.
I see it's main competitor as Scivation's Xtend, which is a very good product as well. The cost, the serving size, the recommended usage/doses, even the bottle are similarly shaped. One main difference is that Xtend is all recovery amino acids (10 grams) while the AMIN.O. ENERGY has less than half that amount because of the other "stuff". Because of that, the recovery benefits are not as good.
So, the other stuff in AMIN.O. ENERGY makes it more all-purpose but less focused. If you are not weight lifting, then you probably don't want the creatine anyway. With the other "stuff", it makes a good (but not great) all-purpose * pre-exercise, * endurance, and * recovery supplement. If you lift weights and use another pre-workout drink (for example, I really like the Cytosport Fast Twitch which includes creatine and some of the other "stuff" as well), then many of the non-recovery amino acid ingredients are redundant. Also, the caffeine (100mg per serving) makes it less suitable for a late evening (after work) supplement.
What I have found is that AMIN.O. ENERGY makes a great energy drink a couple times during the day. It also use it as an in-between recovery booster. Then, I use Xtend as a more focused recovery product when I workout (along with other more focused products).
Another difference between this and Xtend is that this dissolves vastly more easily than Xtend. It is realistic to dissolve this in a glass of cold water in a couple minutes whereas Xtend will take 1 or 2 days. Dissolving Xtend in even hot water is not easy. So, this one is much easier to make a quick pick-me-up energy drink (at only 10 calories, too).
Finally, I think the taste of the orange is really good. I have used full containers of all three flavors: orange, grape, and fruit, but this one is the best partly because the amino acids are a bit on the bitter side, and this hides it better than the other flavors. I also use this to mix with CytoSport's Fast Twitch lemonade which, by itself, tastes pretty fair and is caffeine-free. That gives me a good-tasting supercharged pre-workout drink.
My only gripe (no star deductions) is that the price of this can vary wildly, so pay attention. You can also get it on other sites cheaper at times. The price is very volatile.

Essential "Amin.o." Energy dietary supplement is labeled to deliver the following benefits: Essential amino acid delivery, nitric oxide production (which probably explains the odd location of the periods in the word, 'amino' on the label), muscle recovery acceleration, improved energy and focus.
First, a little bit about myself: former amateur athlete, trying to stay in shape and keep active in my early 50s. My goal is to workout several times a week to stay in shape and look good. My goal is NOT to bulk up, but to stay lean.
This product is perfect for me. The entire plastic canister of roughly 270 grams provides 30 servings (serving = two of the small plastic scoops that come in the canister). Each serving has 100 mg. of caffeine, roughly equal to a cup of coffee. The label says that each serving contains only two grams of carbohydrates, and just ten calories. So the entire canister has only 300 calories.
The powder has been seriously pulverized by heaving ball milling. I used to work in the food biz, and this stuff has the consistency of confectioner's sugar, so it mixes very easily into cold water.
I like the "fruit fusion" flavor, but the grape is my favorite.
Lets be honest. At my age, if I go for a heavy workout, or I miss a few workouts, the impact is the same; a few aches and pains, sore/restless legs, and/or fatigue. On weekends, I like to bang out the whole yard mowing/raking thing in one session, which can take two or three hours in the heat.
For several years I have been drinking iced tea throughout my day (until 4:00pm in the afternoon) whether I'm at work or at home. It's healthy, cold, adds a little caffeine, antioxidants, no calories, and is easy on my teeth. I plan to incorporate Amino Energy into that routine to add protein and variety. Basically, I need a plan (including diet) that I can use every day, day after day, year after year. I honestly think Amin.o. Energy would be a great way to supplement my protein (it contains fourteen different amino acids), while maintaining the benefits I just discussed.
I don't care about "getting pumped up," or anything extreme that you will hear other reviewers discuss. I just want to stay healthy, feel and look good, get a good nights sleep, and live as long as I can, as well as I can!
