Optimum Nutrition : Pro Complex Gainer Optimum Giftpack Offer

Optimum Nutrition are well known for their proteins and weight gainers but it is interesting to note that while Serious Mass gets by far the greater sales among those looking to gain weight, Optimum's Pro Complex Gainer is actually a far superior product with more protein and good fats included than Serious Mass.

With that said, Pro Complex Gainer targets the market looking for leaner gains which basically means higher protein and less carbohydrates in this product and around half the calories per serving as Serious Mass. The protein blend in Pro Complex Gainer is not the same as the similarly named Pro Complex although it does contain whey isolate and whey hydrolysate still, two extremely fast acting whey proteins naturally low in fat, sugar and lactose.

The positive effects of these on digestion rates is offset by the inclusion of calcium caseinate, a type of milk protein which once consumed solidifies into a gel-like substance in your stomach with it being broken down very slowly. With research supporting the results of a protein blend over a single source of protein it is no bad thing that Pro Complex Gainer contains a diverse array of proteins.

Pro Complex also contains medium chain triglycerides, a type of fat the body readily uses for energy rather than storage, as well as a vitamin blend making it a gainer which provides a balanced set of effects for users.

In our view Pro Complex Gainer does a lot of things right. A few may quibble with the inclusion of just maltodextrin as a carbohydrate source but aside from that this product is a well balanced weight gainer which tastes good.
