    Just received my latest order from MP, once again fast delivery as usual

    However, the latest batch of L-leucine tastes very much like sulphur

    I mixed my usual 20g worth into 1.5l of water and the taste wasn't like the leucine I've received in the past.

    I also seemed to sweat more during my workout, this could have been due to other things but there's definitely something not right with the Leucine.

    Order number was 301171890 if that helps

    Cheers

    Forgot to mention my last orders of Leucine were on 31 Jan 2007 and 2 April 2007 and these were fine

    Perhaps from HTTK's thread here: http://forum.myprotein.co.uk/showthread.php?t=8041

    It is the Leucine that needs testing not the L-Glutamine??

    Nope, most things vary slightly in taste to me from batch to batch. I got some leucine a month ago and it does the same job it always has.

    I know thete's always going to be slight discrepancies.

    But sulphur is a bit of a random taste and smell to have with leucine

    perhaps MP can see if my batch was the same as yours.

    What was your order number Bison?

    sorry to hijack but are you guys seeing any actual physical differences whilst using Leucine? I know what the studies say but have yet to meet/speak with anyone who says it made a difference
    Can everyone stop thinking so much.please?

    I've found I can train harder when drinking Leucine in water. Could be a placebo effect but I'm sure it works.

    I don't expect to grow an extra inch or two on my biceps from it but it's pretty cheap to have 20g during a workout.
