Are BCAA pills better than the kind you mix and drink?

[Ace Corona]

I heard that only the capsules or pills are effective, the drink mix version of BCAA’s are bunk.

Can anyone back this up with peer reviewed research?

I remember a YouTube fitness influencer saying this, but I can’t find anything to back it up

Aren't bcaa a scam? Meat, poultry, fish, eggs is probably better

This^ If you want bcaa that's actually bioavailable eat steak. Creatine is a much better choice and it definitely works.
