Quality assurance

Carbohydrate-protein gainer produced by BSN is a supplement for gaining mass and maintaining a high daily calorie content. It belongs to the must have category for thin people (the so-called ectomorphs), and is also suitable for athletes who find it more convenient to drink a cocktail than to often have snacks or full meals.

Indirect confirmation of the quality of the BSN True Mass 1200 is the repeated entry into the nominees for the “Product of the Year” award according to the authoritative resource Bodybuilding.com.

The ratio of carbohydrates to proteins is 4:1

The two main components of a gainer are carbohydrates and proteins in a 4:1 ratio. Accordingly, the former should close the need for energy supply to the body, and the latter should provide “building material” for muscle growth (in response to training in the gym). The basis of carbohydrates is not only the traditional maltodextrin for such an additive (essentially a derivative of vegetable starch), but also whole grain oatmeal powder. The latter refers to the so-called complex carbohydrates and is more slowly absorbed by the body.

The protein component is variable: it includes almost all types of whey protein, as well as albumin (egg white) and casein. But what is more important is not even the variety of sources, but their general quality. It is here confirmed by a good amino acid profile: with 50 grams of protein, the body receives about 12 g of BCAAs.

Large packaging, ball calorie content

BSN True Mass 1200 is available in 3 flavors: Chocolate, Strawberry and Vanilla. The gainer itself is packaged in a package weighing 4.5 kg. Other packaging options for this gainer are not provided. If you need a jar, then in the branded line there is only a protein-carbohydrate mixture BSN True Mass 2.6 kg.

The supplement is characterized by one of the highest calorie content on the market — 1230 kcal. But the weight of the recommended portion is significantly too high: 310 grams (including 222 g of carbohydrates and 50 g of protein). At the same time, such volumes of micronutrients are definitely not absorbed by the body. Therefore, it is logical to divide one serving into 3-4 times, taking the supplement after training and in between meals.

BSN True Mass 1200 is a noteworthy sports nutrition for those who have a hard time gaining weight.
