I sampled some at a health food store that had a buffet, and I not only liked the taste, but I felt like I might have gotten a boost from it.
Has anyone else that uses this stuff noticed that it makes you feel better? Wondering if it was a coincidence or what.
I ended up buying some.

I have used it for years to cook with and season foods. LOVE IT. It is not fermented and is loaded with amino acids which is why you probably felt the energy boost.

Yes, I've been using it for years to season meat before broiling, baking or grilling.
It's gluten-free and I love the flavor.

I use it because it's gluten free. It's rather salty though, so go easy on it!

Every once in a while I kind of "crave it". Have used it for years on/off...
And yes, Tutu is right... very strong and salty... so a little goes a long way.
I brown cut-up or ground turkey/chicken... and simmer the meat in a pan till done... then add a little of the amino acid and a bag of frozen veggies (cauliflower, onions, carrots, brocolli, etc)
Then simmer till done and add garlic just before serving. Can serve on rice or noodles.
If more Braggs is needed, I add it while eating.
Fast and easy meal that lasts for a couple of days.

It is made from soy, so if you're sensitive to soy, you might want to know that. I can eat some soy, but if I eat it regularly my joints ache.

I use to like Bragg's until I realized it has MSG. Of course, msg is terrible for anyone but especially lymies. Labels don't alway say msg but hydrolized protein and other hidden things but it's msg. Read this awesome website.
The following foods contain MSG or its business end - the free amino acid glutamate - in amounts large enough to cause reactions in those sensitive to it.:
* Taco Bell� - seasoned meat - contains autolyzed yeast - which contains free glutamate * Other menu items that contain soy sauce, natural flavors, autolyzed yeast or hydrolyzed protein which can contain up to 20% free glutamic acid - the active part of MSG. * Hamburger Helper Microwave Singles� (targeted towards children) * Doritos� * Campbell's� soups - all of them - based on their commitment to add "umami" (read - MSG) to their products * Pringles� (the flavored varieties) * Boar's Head� cold cuts and most of their hotdogs * Progresso� Soups - all of them * Lipton� Noodles and Sauce * Lipton� Instant soup mix * Unilever or Knorr� products - often used in homemade Veggie dips. * Kraft� products nearly all contain some free glutamate * Gravy Master� * Cup-a-soup� or Cup-o-Noodles� * Planters� salted nuts - most of them * Accent� -this is nearly pure MSG * Braggs� Liquid Aminos - sold at Whole Foods
