May be a little off topic, but I’ve been looking for a tasty weight gain product. Not for myself but for my aunt who has lost alot of weight following surgery.
she’s tried this:
http://www.suplimednutrients.com/
but doesn’t like it, wanted to see if anyone knows some that are tasty, she needs all the calories she can get. Anyone know where I might be able to order a variety of single servings.
any replies links really appreciated.
Thanks
Classic grow is quite good.
As are some other MRP products out there.
Best weight gain stuff is food, glorious food though.
Ya mean, you haven’t look right over there <----- (to your left)?
Hmmmm…
I do have to say that I do prefer steaks and burgers as my primary weight gain sources.
I’m not sure exactly how many calories your looking for, but Prolab makes a killer meal replacement. Lean Mass Matrix Cinnamon Oatmeal tastes great, and uses a superior carbohydrate blend including oats, brown rice, and barley instead of cheap maltodextrin. It also uses a superior protein blend of whey and casein. Hope this helps.
If you are looking for the best tasting weight gainer instead of MRP try Prolab N-large chocolate, with water it’s somewhere round 700 calories.
Hormel makes a high calorie drink that comes in four flavors. A one pint carton has approx. 1000 calories.
Brad,
Do you really think that oats, brown rice, and barley are significantly better than maltodextrin once they’re ground to a fine enough powder to be used in an MRP?
Pizza
I second the pizza, hamburger and steak and dont forget the beer.
Depending on the type of surgery, his aunt might not feel like “Pizza Hut” or a grilled steak (damn, that sounds good!).
Go for a good quality MRP and throw in some frozen berries or a banana for extra calories and a good source of carbs.
Litespeed-Yes.
finaplix-h.
be careful, sometimes the Mega Weight Gainers you see in the stores are made with cheaper ingredients and they can be hard to digest.
So look for something that tastes good, yes, but also get something that digests easy.
Your Aunt won’t gain weight if her Weight Gainer makes her feel bloated and not hungry for another 12 hours.
I did like the tub of Grow! that I had. I usually get Designer Protein, although it is not as tasty as Grow! it digests easily. No carbs, so you will need to blend it up with a banana, etc.
Thanks for the suggestions, I’m going to look into finding them in single serving/ sizes so I don’t go broke.
I know food is the best thing but she’s been basically eating fish filets and candy corn, she’s lost about half her weight following the amputation of her leg. I hardly recognized her from her picture. She is stubborn and its hard to get her to drink anything she doesn’t like the taste of.
Thanks again, I really appreciate all you suggestions.
try blending up some protein powder, fruit, oatmeal, and some yogurt.
