Intended for persons who are trying to bulk up their muscles and to gain weight, the Ultimate Nutrition Muscle Juice Weight Gainer is essentially a protein- and calorie-packed nutrition supplement. Apart from this, it also contains a carbohydrate complex and Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCT).
The protein content of the weight gainer consists of a special blend of whey protein isolate, whey protein concentrate, calcium caseinate, and egg albumen. This blend is formulated in a way that it is slowly absorbed by the body over a period of six hours. This means that your muscles are assured of a continuous supply of proteins instead of peaking right after ingestion only to be depleted soon after.
Complementing the protein is a combination of 162 g of carbohydrates and 17 g of MCTs for an alternative energy source during prolonged exercise, and maximum growth. Other ingredients are maltodextrin, a sweet polysaccharide having lesser calories than sugar, crystalline fructose, a sweetener derived from corn, cocoa, and other natural as well as artificial flavors.
The Ultimate Nutrition Muscle Juice Weight Gainer provides 55 g of special blend protein with each serving. This represents 110% of the protein requirements of a 2,000-calorie diet. It packs a whooping 1,021 calories, with 153 coming from fat. Total fat is 17 g, all of which is saturated. Cholesterol is 77 mg. Using the same 2,000-calorie diet as basis, this is 26% of daily values. Sodium is 108 mg, which is 5%, while potassium is 365 mg, 10%. It also contains 358 mg of calcium, which constitutes 36%.
One serving consists of 4 scoops of the supplement (about 250 mg) thoroughly mixed with 18 oz (533 ml) of water or milk. It is best to chill the mixture before drinking. For best results, drink a serving 30 – 45 minutes before your workout, and another, one hour after. You can add fruit, yogurt, or honey to enhance the taste or for a more full-bodied drink.
