Why does a gainer contain both protein and carbohydrates?

A gainer is primarily a convenient way to increase total energy intake. In this formula, carbohydrates make up the largest part of the serving, while protein provides 23g per serving and contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass.

That does not mean every athlete needs a gainer. If the required calorie and protein intake is easily achieved through regular meals, an additional high-calorie shake may not be necessary.

How much creatine does it actually contain?

The creatine matrix totals 4,875mg, but this is not the same as 4,875mg pure creatine. It consists of 3,000mg creatine monohydrate and 1,875mg tricreatine malate.

According to the declaration, these sources provide a total of 3,105mg creatine per serving. This amount should be included when combining the product with a separate creatine supplement.

Note on carbohydrate content

The shorter marketing description refers to 45g carbohydrates per serving. However, the detailed Chocolate 2500g nutrition table states 43g total carbohydrates, while the declared maltodextrin/dextrose matrix provides 41.25g.

The detailed declaration table is therefore used in this description.

Directions

• adult athletes and recreational exercisers with increased energy requirements;
• people who find it difficult to achieve a calorie surplus through regular meals alone;

• people who find a high-calorie liquid meal convenient.

• do not exceed the recommended daily intake;

Pharmacist's advice

A gainer is most useful when achieving sufficient calorie intake is practically difficult. It does not need to be added simply because you train if your regular diet already provides sufficient energy and protein.

With this product, pay particular attention to creatine. One serving provides 3,105mg total creatine, so additional creatine monohydrate should not automatically be added without calculating the total daily amount.

For muscle-mass gain, adequate calorie surplus, sufficient daily protein, progressive resistance training, recovery and sleep remain fundamental. A gainer can make calorie intake easier but cannot replace these basics.

If your goal is only to increase protein intake without a large amount of additional carbohydrate and calories, a standard whey protein may be a more appropriate choice.
