Well, I just got my Energy & Endurance from P90X. Unfortunately, I am sending it back unopened. The label says "made in a facility" that also processes wheat, eggs, milk, shellfish, etc. I am allergic to wheat, eggs, and milk, and some shellfish. Wish they would have posted this on their website! Thanks for posting about Sledgehammer. I went to Muscleology's website and while it does have stevia, it also has sucralose, too. I will continue my quest for finding a quality preworkout supplement that is free of sucralose (aka splenda) AND has not been cross-contaminated with any of the things to which I am allergic. Bummed. ):

I hate to bump and old thread... Anyone have any more info this?
I was thinking of reaching out to a few companies to make an unflavored/unsweetened pre-work, companies might bite if I can generate enough interest. You could add whatever sweetener you wanted, Honey would be on the top of my list though.
I've been using several pre-workouts and Modern BCAA for a while now. I did a two week cleanse and noticed that "things" smelled chemically, I can only assume that smell is from the artificial sweetener being removed from my body. My diet is very clean and I just cant think of any other things that would cause that smell.
Anyways let me know if y'all might be interested in something like this.

BIOGENICS Performance
I ran across this thread in search of the same type of Pre workout as all of you. I was able to find a company called BIOGENICS Performance that carries a pre workout and bcaa supplement that has no artificial sweeteners or dyes. the two products are called IGNITE and REBUILD. I think its a fairly new company, because they only carry two products, but I could be wrong. ALSO!!! right now if you buy two IGNITE you get two REBUILD for free, IGNITE is listed for $40 for 20 servings, I know that's pricey when compared to C4, Assualt, and NO. But's that just how it is now a days when you buy anything that is natural, organic, haha healthy for you.
sorry this post is so long, but I also wanted to add information about making your own preworkout which i have been doing lately because of so many products containing artificial sweeteners and what not. If you look at ingredients for many of the pre workouts they all contain products like: citrilluine malate, AAKG, Beta alainine, caffeine, taurine, creatine, etc... I've been buying these products individually from Primaforce, i mix it with any kind natural juice or a small amount of gatorade just enough to make it taste okay. I hear there is a product called HINT that is like a flavored water, but somehow they make it without the AceK and Sucralose, you could mix it with these supplements as well, I am going to Kroger this week to get some. Hope this helps everyone, I'm not able to post a link to biogenics because this is my first ever post, sorry yall but just google biogenics performance usa and you can find it.

Tsunami Strike
And another called Tsunami strike, by Pipeline Nutrition, has some pro athletes affiliated with it, (who really knows though if they really take it haha). ONce again the ingredients look good, no artificial sweetners, does have maltodextrin, also has 29g of carbs with each serving. But to be honest I have no idea how the pricing works with this company, I would call them, cause I'm confused how how much it costs, you will see if you go to their website.

Just googled Honey Badger, and it looks like the best one so far, despite its crazy name, $30 for 45 servings which is the best I've seen so far. just go to drink honey badger .com. I honestly think it looks like a good PWO and am going to buy this one first and then the BIOGENICS. since this one is the cheapest per serving out of all the ones listed so far. And its flavored which is good, since I'm sure the majority of us drink water 95% of the time. Hope my posts can help you find what you are looking for.

No problem, I just really wanted to spread the word about trying to find better products with less and less artificial ingredients. When i first started I just took whatever product I saw was the number one product and never accounted for what was actually in it. I remember my first ever pre workout was the original Jack3d haha and we all know what happened with that product. So i just encourage people to think about what is actually in the products they are buying, and remember that a lot of these companies don't really look out for whats in your best interested, they are out to make a dollar just like the other thousand supplement companies out there.

Check out FitCore-Supplements. They make a preworkout and intra workout with no dyes or sweeteners. I'm on my second tub and couldn't be any happier. My favorite part is they don't list proprietary blends so I know exactly what's in it.

Edit : ^ Guess we doubled up lol.
Well... trying to remember my login info was fun.
Had this pop up in my inbox today, hopefully I'm not too late to the party. Figured I'd tell you guys check out Fitcore Supplements
Two products, a pre workout and an intra workout.
Both of them have literally NOTHING but active ingredients in them. So no dye, no flavoring, no sweeteners (even "natural" ones). I won't BS you, it doesn't taste so great but in my experience, even the super sweetened "SLAYBERRY!" stuff was pretty wretched. Not like I'm sipping these things to enjoy the refreshing flavor.
Check them out on facebook or their site fitcoresupplements dot com. (I'm guessing if I throw up a link it'll get pulled down)

SDC Nutrition About Time Protein. Great Whey Isolate with no artificial ingredients
SDC Nutrition has an awesome protein called About Time Protein. It's sweetened with Stevia. It tastes very good and contains only 100% Whey Isolates, no concentrate. Protein concentrate is junk. Protein isolate is a much more pure form of protein. It has no artificial ingredients. SDC Nutrition also makes a pre-workout called AUX. It also tastes pretty good. It's sweetened with stevia and contains Beta Alanine, Citrilline Histidine and a few other things. No caffeine. Hope this helps.

I have been using Honey Badger for about a month now. It's not the best pre-workout I have ever taken but it gets the job done, I wish it had higher doses of ingredients in it. Also, the taste is clean and not over-whelming. I ended up getting it because of their BOGO sale and I will in all likelihood be buying it again in a little over a month unless some ends up coming out with a naturally sweetened pre-workout before that. Another pre you could try is Nutriforce Sports PreWOD, I just didn't get it because it has a proprietary blend

Pure Pump - Pre Workout ingredients without sweetener or flavor.
I had the same issue as you. I was using a pre-workout that was great, but it contained Sucralose and artificial colors.
I have found - Pure Pump and it works pretty good. It has no sweeteners or flavors. It is just the ingredients you need and is designed to add to your own drink mix. This is the only one I could find.
I found it on Amazon if you search Pure Pump. It is made by Do Vitamins.

Here are the ingredients since they are not listed on Amazon:
Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA)
A powerful antioxidant that is vital to cellular energy production and helps to neutralize the damage caused by free radicals during exercise. Acts as a synergist with B vitamins to help in the production of energy.*
Acetyl-L-Carnitine
A more bioavailable form of L-Carnitine that helps increase energy production in the mitochondria of the cells. Also functions as an antioxidant and promotes the production of glutathione, a free radical scavenger.*
Beta-Alanine
A non-essential amino acid that is used by muscle cells to synthesize Carnosine. Supports muscular endurance and helps delay muscle fatigue.*
BCAA’s
The branched chain amino acids L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine are 3 essential amino acids that may help increase performance and reduce muscle breakdown during intense exercise.*
Creatine Monohydrate
The time-tested, proven form of creatine. Creatine helps the body convert ADP back to ATP, providing greater amounts of ATP for energy, which may increase short-term endurance and strength.*
Caffeine
PurePump® uses a natural form of caffeine from green tea for a steady, clean boost without the jitters or post-workout crash. Caffeine has also been shown to increase mental alertness and focus.*
L-Arginine
A chemical precursor to nitric oxide, Arginine may help increase blood flow during exercise. Necessary for the production of protein and helps rid the body of ammonia.*
L-Citrulline
Converted to Arginine by the body. Especially effective at raising nitric oxide levels when taken in combination with Arginine.*
Vitamins
An array of B Vitamins and Vitamin C to support the uptake of amino acids, aid in energy production, and fight fatigue.*
NO Salt
NO Sugar
NO Fillers
NO Sucralose
NO Aspartame
NO Preservatives
NO Acesulfame-K
NO Artificial Colors
NO Artificial Flavors
NO Artificial Sweeteners
NO Banned Substances
NO 1,3-Dimethylamylamine
