Why it tastes strong

Amino acids are powerful.
They taste like it.

Essential amino acids are clinically dosed in XR for real recovery, which brings a naturally sharp, sometimes bitter profile. Aminos like methionine and cysteine carry sulphur, and others like leucine and isoleucine are naturally bitter. We do not bury that behind fillers or fake flavor. We honor the science behind recovery.

So if it tastes strong, it is working.

The right recipe makes it easy to build XR into your daily routine.

  • Coffee, creamSweetened creamers in coffee or tea smooth Mocha and Unflavored.
  • SmoothiesFrozen banana and nut butter round out any flavor.
  • Broth, gelatinSavory bone broth or flavored gelatin for soft recovery days.
