| 22 of 22 people found the following review helpful  Great amount of carbs, protein, vitamins, and taste ... low sodium and cholesterol, By Doug (New Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase After much research, several years ago I started using this muscle-gainer and have enjoyed it ever since. To me it is almost the perfect work-out / weight-lifting / energy / muscle-gaining drink. It has a great amount/ratio of carbs (85g ... only 5g in sugars), protein (60g .. several types), vitamins/minerals (usually only 20%-35% RDA ... some drinks put in 100% in many areas but I want to use a multi-vitamin, GNC Mega Men, instead), and taste (I have enjoyed my favorite banana, strawberry, and vanilla). It also has low sodium (15% RDA) and cholesterol (20% RDA) relative to many other drinks I saw, which are quite high in these areas ... beware. I don't drink it every day, just usually about half a serving before a workout and half after. That gives me enough carbs/energy to enjoy the workout and then protein after for good/reasonable muscle growth, all the while staying low in body-fat. It easily mixes with lowfat milk or soy milk, and tastes good with both. I'd give it 6 stars if I...

When I started getting serious about lifting again out of college, I had dropped to 145lbs from my previous high of 175lbs. My metabolism is fast, and I simply had trouble keeping up for a number of reasons: time, money, and the difficulty eating the calories I needed in solid foods. I then found this product, which has helped all three of those issues.VALUE - At approximately $2.25 a serving (when using subscribe and save), this is one of the cheapest quality 650 calorie meals you can provide your body with. I found this to be much more cost effective than trying to put together my own meal. Thanks to Amazon's subscribe and save, the prices compete with the other bigger online supplement retailers and I don't have to worry about re-ordering. PERFORMANCE - I can drink an entire serving in 2-5 minutes without feeling bloated/sick (taste ranges from... Read more 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful Quality Ingredients = Better Growth, By 1) It mixes easily in a shaker cup. Fully dissolves in less than two minutes and has the consistency of low-fat milk when mixed with water, making it easy to drink throughout the day. It tastes good, too. 2) Protein is of much higher quality than those found in other gainers. Better bio-availability makes a huge difference for growth and recovery. Whey isolate is the primary source. Albumen, casein, and whey hydrolysates give you both fast-absorption and a sustained release of amino acids for pre/post-workout and before bed. 3) Good blend of essential vitamins and minerals. Roughly 20-30% of your recommended daily intake per serving, which allows you to take a daily multi-vitamin if you want. 4)... Read more |
