Iso Mass Gainer Xtreme Ingredient Breakdown

Protein Blend

A protein blend consisting of multiple sources of protein is superior to any single-protein source, including whey, for sustained time-release nutritional support. A more complete source of protein means you’ll enjoy faster lean muscle gains and quicker recovery after workouts. Time-Release means continuous protein nourishment of your muscles throughout the day and also before bedtime when your body works it’s hardest to recover.*

Carbohydrates

IsoMass Gainer Xtreme, in addition to other nutritious meals and exercise, provide the body with all the protein and calories needed for optimal muscle growth. The delicious shakes are packed with more than just amino acids. Carbohydrates provide the body with the much-needed material to restore muscle glycogen that has been used up during exercise. They also promote recovery and growth to aid in gaining muscle mass. Added fiber delays the digestion of the carbohydrates, which helps prevent dreaded spikes.*

Creatine

Creatine, when taken before and after a workout, helps transport water, carbohydrates and amino acids into muscles to increase energy, aid in recovery and increase muscle growth.*

Healthy Fats

This formula also contains EFA rich oils, also knows as healthy fats. These fats help to preserve muscle mass and immune function during intense training, and encourage the body to use stored fats as energy. Medium Chain Triglycerides offer a great energy source used as fuel by the body, as muscles prefer to use them. CLA is best known as an effective ingredient for reducing body fat and increasing lean muscle mass.*

Vitamins, Minerals, & Antioxidants

For the human body to perform at its maximum potential, it must be fed a vast and complex array of vital nutrients. IsoMass Gainer Xtreme includes a full-spectrum of vitamins that provide the essentials to promote good health. This formulation is rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and trace minerals, which are required for optimal body function. It also provides enhanced support for the immune system and cardiovascular system by supplying a wide range of antioxidants.*

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Glycogen?

Carbohydrates are the body's most readily available source of nutrient energy. During digestion carbohydrates are converted into glucose, which is used as an immediate source of "fuel." Glucose that is not directly used to provide energy is transported to the liver and muscle, where it is converted to glycogen. Thus, glycogen is the stored energy, which the body taps into when energy demands are placed on it. It should be noted that the glycogen storage capacity of liver and muscle is rather limited. Consequently, if carbohydrates are consumed in excess of what the body needs could be stored as fat in the adipose tissue.*

Do Athletes Really Need Vitamin Supplements?

Nutrients are vital for healthy functioning organs, skin and eyesight, strong bones, nervous system and general well-being. Long-term deficiencies can cause poor health. Demanding work schedules, exercise and some lifestyle habits can also be punishing on the body and increase the need for vitamins and minerals. A balanced diet may not always deliver the needed vitamins and minerals due to some food production, as well as farming and processing methods. Of course foods contain a broad range of micro & macronutrients, so it is always important to consume healthy foods, and fresh fruits and vegetables. However, scientific studies have surmised that a good diet may no longer be good enough for optimum health. The world-leading Journal of the American Medical Association (vol 287, no 23, 19 June 2002) recently published an article recommending "all adults take one multivitamin daily". This recommendation comes after the assessment of over 30 years of clinical studies from around the world.*
