User questions & answers

Question:	will a high intensity sport like basketball plus weight training, 5 days a week lessen the effectiveness of this product
Answer:	Any cardio is going to impact the way you gain weight. I was using this product and eating clean whole foods while going for a run on off days in between lift days. Within 3 -4 weeks I had went from 176lbs to 185lbs. The key is to lift heavy. Do big sets of small reps. You may also want to try and squeeze two full servings in one day of Serious Mass. At first I could only hold down one but by the end of the cycle I could easily put down two a day. Cardio isn't always a bad thing when gaining weight because afterwards your body is looking for more & more food. I hope this helps and always remember to lift heavy and eat clean!
Question:	Does it work without work out ?because im so busy all day
Answer:	if you consume this product without working out, you'll get a serious mass without the "m"
Question:	banana
Answer:	I’m adding my two cents. Chocolate peanut butter is the truth. Banana was good at first, and then it wasn’t.
Question:	How well does this work? I'm a teen with a high matabalizum and I'm looking to build mass and bulk up
Answer:	I’m nearly 50 years old, but seeing this question I had to comment. Until I was around 32 or so, I couldn’t gain weight no matter how much I had to eat; or so it seemed. I remember not caring whether it was fat or ideally muscle, I just didn’t want to be skinny anymore. Then I hit a point in my life where the metabolism slowed and I couldn’t keep the weight off. That lasted for nearly 15 years and for some reason my appetite suddenly plummeted and now I’m back looking at weight gainers simply to do nothing more than maintain a healthy weight. Just try to keep in mind that human physiology typically prohibits putting on large amounts of muscle in a short period of time naturally. That means that a large portion of quick gains will be fat. Embrace your high metabolism and shoot for a reasonable goal. That said, the more calories you intake in a day that exceeds what your body can burn, the quicker you will gain weight. For the most part, it’s simple math. Total Intake - Total Burned = Energy Stored Primarily as Fat. There are about 3500 calories in one pound. If you were to forge an extra 3500 calories a day, you could theoretically gain 7 pounds a week. For someone like you, that probably means eating 8,000 calories a day. Now as far as this product goes, it’s one of the highest calorie per serving gainers I have seen and it’s much quicker to pound a shake than to eat a steak! Another thing to keep in mind is that supplements that are fortified with vitamins and minerals, have the potential to far exceed recommended safe values for human consumption. I ran into this when I was your age. I was drinking over a gallon of milk a day, milk is fortified with vitamin D and that build up led to some freaky painful headaches in me personally. Too much calcium can also upset your bodies homeostasis and lead to surprising problems. Being young, your body can handle a lot! Just wanted you to be aware of the things I wish I knew when I was your age. If I were young again I would focus on speed, agility and good clean ripped muscle! Shredded muscle always looks bigger than fat muscle. Cheers!

User questions & answers

Question:	Did Amazon stop selling the strawberry flavor
Answer:	I think they discontinued it
Question:	Is that gluten free
Answer:	Yes, it states on the front of the bag that this product is gluten free. That claim is next to the statement about being banned substance tested. Enjoy!
Question:	Will this make my stomach fat
Answer:	If you consume more calories than you burn you will store it as far. Everyone stores the fat in different places.
Question:	What are two heaping scoops (serving size
Answer:	That description is used a lot with supplements. Its referring to a full scoop size without leveling it as a baker would while measuring. So to put it simple... a full load scoop with the cup provided( being whatever scoop size they include to achieve their portion of serving size,) yet not enough to fall over the edges creating a mess. I hope this helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this product help weight gain
Answer:	This is a great product and yes it does help you gain weight.
Question:	How does chocolate flavor powder in water, compare to the pre-made shakes
Answer:	I buy the Muscle Milk for my grandson, so I do not know this first hand, but he does not like the pre-make shakes at all, but he drinks the chocolate flavor powder in water three times a day and depends on it. He was severely underweight and is now gaining four pounds a month.
Question:	What is the difference between the "gainer" and the regular? Seeing "gainer" makes me think I'll gain weight
Answer:	It doesn't have any more protein than any "non gainer" protein product. The difference between Muscle Milks basic protein and the gainer is the added carbs. Carbs ARE essential to muscle growth, and for those who refuse to exercise, it can help you "gain" in other ways. Regardless of what your goal is, don't look at protein as the primary muscle building ingredient. If you just want high protein there are many more products with much higher amounts.
Question:	How many servings are there in one package
Answer:	The Cytosport Muscle Milk Gainer Supplement, Chocolate, 5 Pounds has 28 Servings per Container. Thank you and have a great day!

Size and strength are lost when fewer calories are consumed than expended.

Size and strength are lost when fewer calories are consumed than expended. In order to facilitate muscle growth after exercise, you need to increase your overall calorie intake, and take in high quality proteins and key nutrients at specific times.*

*Consuming both fast and slow release proteins, like those found in MUSCLE MILK Gainer, helps keep your body in positive protein balance.

How To Use

MUSCLE MILK Gainer can be used either before workouts, after workouts or prior to bedtime. The optimal timing for a serving of MUSCLE MILK Gainer is after a workout. This timing is crucial because this is when the body is optimally primed for replenishing fuel stores and building and repairing muscles.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this stuff really work
Answer:	Yes, it does. I'm 5'4 was 125, couldn't get past that t save my life! But with Naturade, I gained 10 pounds in about 3-4 weeks which had me at 135. Consistency is key. Follow the directions and make sure you mix it with something because the taste alone isn't that great. I had came up with my own shake which included 1 ensure, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, 1 cup of milk, 1 scoop of ice cream and 2 scoops of Naturade Weight Gain Powder. The best way to mix it is a blender so make sure it's smooth and not gritty. Drink everyday. I did every morning because I'm always skipping breakfast. The tub lasted me about a month and half because some days I'd only do 1 scoop as posed to 2 scoops... as of today, I no longer use it. I substituted it with Boost VHC which works even better in my opinion. But nonetheless it does work!
Question:	Do you have to put it in liquids, or does yogurt work too? My husband has been putting it in yogurt, with a bit of milk, and still no gain
Answer:	A lot of the fat and calories come from the whole milk you mix it with. Personally if you can stand it I would follow the advice and use whole milk. Yogurt is good, but I think you'll find that most yogurt is low fat, AND contains artificial sweeteners. I drink two a day (with 14oz of whole milk), with Publix whole frozen strawberries and it really isn't that bad. It does seem to be working I've gained six pounds.
Question:	In one scoop how much protein is in it
Answer:	Only 5 grams, a serving is 2 scoops,10gr. It is mostly gain weight, not muscle, not lot protein, tons of calories tho, if you're on skinny side it's a quick help...worked for me when I got sick lost lot weigh...
Question:	Do you lose the weight that you got after you stop taking this product
Answer:	Yes, I lost 2 pounds in a week from the 7 pounds I've put on within two weeks. My initial goal was 12 pounds (yeah, I know), so I'm ordering more. But it seems like once I gain the extra 7 more pounds, I have to either eat more to keep the weight steady or take the shake sparingly.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there arsenic in this product? i see on the label - a table with the mcg's of arsenic, cadmium, mercury and lead...what is this all about
Answer:	Some of the foods you eat have arsenic in it. Whether you like it or not. If you are a little worried about the heavy metals in this you should look up Diatomaceous earth, which kills bacteria, infections, toxins, and heavy metals in your body. I use it everyday. My wife told me a about it and it pretty much detoxes out your system. I believe you can buy it on Amazon. This naker mass is probably the cleanest and purest of them all.
Question:	I was just wondering if this product had bugs in it and because I heard this company had bugs in a different powder gainer? I am new to this company
Answer:	Thankfully I didn't see any bugs in my jars, I only bought it twice though.
Question:	Still waiting for a real review below. needs comparisons. how is this better than serious mass aside from the less sugar
Answer:	Where does the maltodextrin in Naked Mass come from? I tapioca, is that organic? Also, I saw 52 g's of sugar per serving and 252 g of carbs..wow; won'they turn to sugar in the body? can that possibly be right? I'm on a sugar free anti cancer diet trying to gain weight ; is Naked Mass my best choice of your products? Help appreciated.
Question:	Is this product lactose free
Answer:	This product contains lactose from both the whey protein and the casein.

Question:	Can I drink it for breakfast
Answer:	Naked Mass can be used at any time during the day. For after working out, we recommend a fast absorbing protein like Naked Whey. Let us know if you have any other questions. Have a great day!
Question:	Where is all the sugar coming from in the unflavored vegan powder? It has three ingredients listed, so I am curious where the 24g of sugar comes from
Answer:	I think the sugar is from the brown rice protein and tapioca maltodextrin. Both are sweet naturally so when they're mix together they're even sweeter. That's just my option though.
Question:	Where is the 35g out of 54g of "added" sugar coming from? i don't see any ingredients that would reflect that
Answer:	I’m guessing the 37g of added sugar is from the coconut sugar in the ingredients
Question:	Does this product contain creatine
Answer:	We mention a number of places in the listing and on the product that there are only three ingredients. Creatine is not one of the ingredients.

User questions & answers

Question:	What consistency is it, eg yoghurt? Is it liquid enough for enteral use by syringe
Answer:	Hi Macca - My husband has had a feeding tube since 2011. We use Benecalorie for additional protein. It's a dense liquid that needs to be thinned with about 2-3 oz of water and should be mixed with another product since it's so concentrated. We mix it with Boost VHC for additional nutrition. It is excellent for enteral use by syringe. Super product!! Hope this helps you...Linda
Question:	would this change the flavor of chicken soup? Would it visibly thicken it
Answer:	If it was a small bowl or cup it would definitely thicken it and change the flavor. I don't think I would put it into a broth, but that is just me. I originally thought since it was such a small amount I could throw it in 8oz. of orange juice and it basically floated to the top.
Question:	Does it make food thick? Does it have any taste
Answer:	It does appear to do that , theres so little of,I mix mine with a concentrated protein drink. I make this into a container that I add some water to and pot it into the peg tube.
Question:	Is there absolutely no taste
Answer:	It does have a slight milky taste to - maybe I am sensitive to it because I don't normally consume dairy.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this the same thing as dextrose
Answer:	CJ, no it's not. Dextrose is a sugar made by the body. When supplementing dextrose you want to it after intense long cardio, or during a long cardio session, biking hiking running ect. Carbo gain is 100% maltodextrine, a complex carbo hydrate! This is what your body will burn and use first during any sort of workout! I personally supplement carbo gain in a protein shake, post work out, and mix it with my BCAAs during my workout, to sip on! Hope this info helped, feel free to contact me about any other questions!
Question:	Is this imported from China like the Dextrose is
Answer:	Yes
Question:	How many calories does it give per serving
Answer:	I mean it depends on the serving size and how much you are taking. I think it's 4 calories per gram. If you're taking 30 grams or using a 70cc protein scooper that you get with your protein supplement it should be 120 calories
Question:	How does this taste
Answer:	I've always used it mixed with a flavored protein intra-workout and post-workout, so haven't perceived Carbo Gain to have a taste.

Question:	Which is better for bulk muscle mass: serious mass or pro gainer
Answer:	Serious Mass is a high-calorie gainer with 1,250 calories and 60 grams of protein per serving. PRO Gainer is a high-protein gainer with 60 grams of protein per serving at 650 calories.

DO need to drink WATER cuase HIGH protein can stop u up.. I also add ice cream to it:) tastes great! Good stuff- Doc approved! Shes in GREAT shape + he does Labs on her al the time.
Question:	If this is so good, it makes me wonder why it has twice the protein and is $45 cheaper per 10lb bag than Gold Standard - the same company
Answer:	Which Gold Standard are you looking at? This is a lean weight gainer vs protein vs bulking weight gainer. Sometimes the wholesalers give us deals if we purchase a large amount at a time. Some sellers (myself included) will discount the price in relationship with the "cost" associated with the product I sell.
Question:	what's the difference between this one and serious mass
Answer:	Serious mass had a ton more sugar in it.

User questions & answers

Question:	I don't really fancy the taste, is there a next way I can make it taste better
Answer:	Here is the way I mix mine = Milk-ice cream-sliced banana! If you try it you might like the taste? Hope this is a helpful suggestion? Of course don't forget some of the powder.
Question:	servings per
Answer:	It depends if you do the 40g protein serving...almost 4 servings (6 scoops) or if you do the 20g protein serving i(3 scoops) is almost 8 servings. Clearly states this on the label which you can see in the pictures! And...the 70 servings comment in this thread is completely hogwash...hogwash I tell you...do the math...its on the label!!! At most, with one scoop per serving thats only at most 24-25 servings...thats how many times you can do a 1 scoop serving which totally defeats the purpose. You would only get 6-8 grams of protein out of that 1 scoop serving. And yes...Im addicted to ellipsis...
Question:	What are the ingredients
Answer:	I believe they provide that in the product description. A fair amount of tye calorues are from the ever-so-important protein. A lot of sugar. Doesn't matter. You are going to be burning that sugar. That is the idea.
Question:	do we need to work out or take exercise to take this pills for weight gain
Answer:	Depends on what kind of weight you want. Workout for muscle, guard the TV for body-fat gains.

User questions & answers

Question:	This is hdl cholesterol right.. the good kind of chol
Answer:	Yes, this is a good kind of cholesterol,
Question:	Does one scoop contain 50g of protein
Answer:	No. "50g" refers to "per serving" which is 4 scoops (332g) And the same goes for the "1270 calories per serving " But it does have very good flavor ... I never put 4 scoops. 3 is the most I do. And that is very thick with out using a blender.... Enjoy.
Question:	does anyone notice there some kinda like seed like settlement at the bottom of there shaker cup or it just me when u mix this mass gainer
Answer:	Thank you for your question! As each serving is 1,270 calories, the mixture can sometimes be a little thick and, in the event of not using enough water, may cause some sediment at the bottom of your shaker. To avoid this, I would advise either using more water or reducing the serving size to (2) scoops instead of the standard (4).
Question:	Soes it come with a big or small scooper
Answer:	Small scooper but most bags are different.
