4 Hours?!?!
How am I supposed to take ANYTHING on an empty stomach if I'm trying to gain weight and get bigger?!?!?!?!?! This doesn't make sense to me. There are so many directions that say "do not eat anything within 2 hours before or after." DUDE!! I can't go 4 hours w/o food when I'm bulking!!

You can follow Scorch with a meal 30 minutes later.
If thats not feasible, don't sweat it.

Yes I have found this to be pretty stupid. Most weight lifting people don't have empty stomachs even when they are cutting. So, I have found that if you take something about 20 min before or after you eat, you'll be fine...

well, this pertained to scorch, which is for cutting  but in regard to bulking agents that say that, I agree, kind of annoying. However, on an empty stomach for supp absorption if you are eating smaller/medium meals multiple times throughout the day, 2 hrs after and 30-60 min before eating will be fine for "empty stomach"

I've never seen anything really say don't take within 2 hours of food. Honestly by empty stomach they just mean don't take with food. Take it 30-45 min before or after a meal. Sure your stomach is not literally "empty" but they just mean don't take with food.
