Full Purple Controlled Labs Wraath Review.
I have now been taking my PW for 2 weeks, so i can definitely give the full review now.
First and foremost, everything you have read about PW in the forums and from other members, is TRUE!!! This stuff is amazing. I will be reviewing ( 1-10 point scale ), the taste, value, how easy it mixes, and what ever else i can think of.
Taste.- The taste is great. I drink it with ice cold water. It does take a couple of times of you taking it for you to get used to the taste. At first the taste is a little, chemical like, but after 2 -3 times of taking it, you get used to it. I would recommend it you take it with cold water, it tastes like grape juice. I have tasted some other stuff out there that made me whant to stop taking my supplements, but PW's taste is good. Overall Taste rating : 9/10
Value.- The money that you pay for, for the servings that you get, is definitely worth it. I got the smaller container, and i can get 45 servings out of it, i do the recommended 1 scoop per serving, thats 45 days of PW!!!!!!! Even if you take 2 scoops per serving, that is still over 22 days!!!!!!! Overall Value rating : 10/10
Mixing.- PW mixes very easily. I usually mix it with water, i use my Bodybuilding.com Shaker cup ( which by the way, is a really good product ) a couple of shakes, and its ready to go. No clumps what so ever. Mixes really well, no residue visible in the water after you mix it. Overall Mixing : 10/10
Performance.- PW is better than any NO booster that i have taken. I know its hard to beleive since it is NOT an NO Booster, but its true. I usually start taking my PW on my way to the gym, during my workout, and if i have any left, i finish it right after my workout. While working out i have unlimited amounts of energy, i can keep going, going, going, going,.... well you get the point. Also, PW helps with recovery, it feels great to wake up in the mornings and not be sore from the killer workout you had the day before. It helps you stay focused and gives you those extra pumps with the weights and extra punches to the BAG. The best thing i like about PW, is that its CAFFEINNE FREE!!!!!!!!!!!! No jitters !!!!!!!!!!! You feel like you can workout forever while taking PW. i can not train without it. Overall Performance: 10/10
Packaging.- Packaging is great, it comes in this really cool tub ( if plastic containers can be cool, i guess this one is ). No zip lock bags like some other supplements. I hate the zip lock bags, you get all messy, and ......HAAAA!!!!! I just can't deal with them. Also, the scoop was right on the top, i didn't have to go diggin for it, thats another plus.Overall Packaging : 10/10
Tingles.- I know some people don't like the tingles, but i love them, they let me know that the supplement is actually being absorbed by my body, and it tells me to get my Butt into high gear. Overall Tingles: 10/10
Overall.- Overall, PW is the best supplement that i have ever taken. It gives me tons of energy, tastes great, it is very easy to mix, it contains BCAA's and EAA's. The value that you get per serving is also great, specially now a days with the economy and supplements being as high priced as they are. I decided to give my theory a try, so i decided to worokout without taking my PW for 2 days. Those 2 days at the gym were HELL...i had no enery, no desire, i gassed after about half my workout. Boxing was horrible after half my workout i was so tired my punches were so weak. I have gotten used to taking my PW, used to the energy, recovery, most of all the ENERGY!!!! While taking PW you will be able to push yourself harder than you usually would, thats were gains are met and goals are accomplished. I still have a lot of work to do with my goals, but now i have found the right supplement to help me get there, Purple Wraath by Controlled Labs. Now remember, these are the results that i have seen with ME, i am not telling you that the same will happen with you, but i can tell you that this product is working great for me. If you have any questions about PW, i am no expert by any means, but i will be happy to help if i can. Overall rating : 9.5/10

I agree, mainly because the results are measurable and immediate. I found that there was absolutely no chance that I was experiencing a placebo effect with this product.
Great review btw!

i agree and love the product, but how is it even possible to have no chance of a placebo effect?! Anything can theoretically have a placebo effect..

I thinks he meant overall, it was working. placebo boosts every product on the market up a bit from there, but to really work it needs a strong base.

There is definitely NO placebo effect. After you have been on PW for a while and you don't take it, you can tell the difference without a doubt.

Have you tried mixing bulk powders together and seeing how it compares?
I say this purely because im yet to try any product of this type (Xtend or Wraath), im currently just mixing 10g of BCAA's, 6g Citrulline Malate, 5g glutamine, 6g beta alanine and it seems to be pretty good.

ditch the glutamine. add the other EAAs. try a sample of wraath to compare. for ease of use and flavoring and obviously its effects, nothing compares

I enjoy mine. Initially almost sent it back due to the taste, but then grabbed some of those Great Value generic flavor packs (kool aid knockoffs) in the little single-serving packs in Grape (0 cals, no sugar, etc.). Did the trick! Those things are like $1 a box of 12 or something.
Sort of like this:
