Essential Amino Acids

Is an essential amino acid product something you guys have ever considered? Seems like a base of a stack supplement that many can benefit from especially if old, naturally low protein diet, super active lifestyle, focus on muscle building, etc. Appropriate amino acid status also closely related mood, cognition, etc. Maybe it’s not quite in the ND product wheelhouse but they’re aren’t a lot of quality providers with a plain, clean EAA (especially in capsules or tabs) product. I had been consistently using NOW Amino-9 (which seems to be one of the only decent ones out there) but its hard to find and sparsely stocked at many vendors and still don’t trust it as much as I would one from you guys.
Thoughts?
Thanks

BulkSupplements powder is better than NOW's. It mimics the recommended daily values by percentage extremely well. It tastes terrible, so I take it with oblate disks. I use 2 tbsp a day (almost perfectly matches WHO recommended amounts) to ensure 100% that I'm getting the aminos I need in addition to what's coming from the dietary protein I'm consuming
Any tablets/capsules I've seen are RIDICULOUSLY overpriced compared to the powders, and with oblate disks, powders are insanely easy to work with.

Bulk Supplements doesn't properly lab test their products, and we have had multiple failures from products of theirs that we have tested in our lab and at Alkemist.
