Hi,

I like the sound of this stuff at 1250 cals per serving it could really help me achieve my 4500 cal per day intake. Not as good as whole food sure but better than nothing! Has anyone tried it?

Oh yeh and it's only £31 for 12lb of the stuff. NOt sure I like the term complex carbs on the food label, ok so what complex carbs did they use??? Bet it's just Maltodextrin.

Sounds like alot of calories for one sitting, some of that is bound to turn to fat.
Not only that the ratio's are off. The % of carbs to fat to protein is off. Too many carbs there and not enough fat.

40g of sugar

And I concur - I bet the other 210g of carbs is just maltodextrin.

Make your own weight gainer using raw oats and protein powder

I also agree with the above - that 1250 is WAY too much to be taking in one go if your TOTAL daily amount is 4500.

Killerkeane

i agree that 1200 calories is a little much, the body cant digest it all, maybe half the serving and throw some protein powder in it?

Sure - just throw protein and oats in a blender with water and blend for about 30 seconds. Simple and does the job!

If you prefer, you can mix it up in milk instead of water.

You could use whey as the protein source, but I use USN's Pure Protein which is a blend of different types of protein (whey, casein, soy etc).

big

Glad to hear that mate! Everyone should give blended oats a try

Jimmy

I will say one thing only guys

please please please please dont fall into the protein powder trap!!!!

You will spend££££££ or $$$$$$ getting no where

use protein supps pre and post workout only, eat food the rest of the time

if you cant eat much or work is tough to eat all the time then make your own shakes

raw eggs, cream, milkshake powder or sweetener for the low carb high fat club

tuna, yoghurt, fruit, squash if you want carbs

cottage cheese, yoghurt, fruit, honey if you want all 3 nutrients

add oats also if you want

It is limitless to what one can do with a blender....add a little protein powder for taste, or if it makes you feel better

food is the only way....trust me....i have learned this over years.....dont believe the hype!!!!!! (chuck d)

Beautifal Jimmy.
Nice post. I agree with everything but this: "tuna, yoghurt, fruit, squash if you want carbs"
Must be a typo on the TUNA!
But yes whole foods are way better. They can control everything from your body's PH to your vitamins, to going anabolic, to even blocking estrogen naturally.

ONE SMART COOKIE

Mate if your after just upping your bodyweight then a simple protein powder will do and add some peanut butter and some ice cream blend and stick it in a thermos flask that has been left to chill in the freezer overnight and just sip throughout the day.

Simple easy and cheap.

SportDr

Protein, ice cream and peanut butter, sounds great! If Jimmys Tuna smoothie doesn't give me food poisoning I will try that too

Wow all these new recipes and they taste so much better than my powders!!

Thx all
