All right, I admit it EAS is a company I’ll probably always keep tabs on. This is mostly for sentimental reasons, since I worked at EAS from 2000-2002. I owe a lot to this company as they gave me the opportunity to write for Muscle Media and the 4th Issue of the Sports Supplement Review.

Moreover, during my stay at EAS I was fortunate to see one of the best-built, and revolutionary companies ever to play in our industry. So in my mind they will always be a threat to “breakthrough with a big idea in the athletic nutrition market.

These days the EAS division is going back to its roots, dedicating significant product development and educational dollars towards serious athletes that compete in a diverse range of sports.
