Meal Replacement Sups?

[Elementality]

I’m curious if anyone knows a lot about these meal replacement supplements (mass gainer type stuff). Y’know, the stuff that has lots of calories and less protein (like 600 cals for 40 gs protein), requires like 5 scoops for a serving.

Reason I’m interested is because I’ll sometimes have like oats mixed with whey during the day just to try to keep my calorie intake up. On this ECA I never feel like eating so I try and supplement with whey, but I want something that I can just mix up for calories and protein every now n then when I’m too lazy to get real food.

I know a lot of people use these mass gainer tubes for bulking, but, I just plan to use it here n there as a meal replacement, or in between type of calorie/protein boost. What do they put in these for calories? Doesn’t look like it’s coming from fat or sugar..is this protein casein or fast acting?

Anyone know of something CHEAP I can get?

if you're using ECA i assume your goal is fat loss. if your goal is fat loss, stay away from these "meal replacement" supps like the plague. they're loaded with simple carbs.

Yes. I am simple saying do not be fooled by the high cal weight gainer drinks. All they are is reg protein with lots of added sugar.

yup!! i think maltodextrin is usually one of the 2nd or 3rd ingredients on many of them!

The solution 5 tastes great, and for a whey protein it is pretty filling.

Yep, lots of sugar added along with lots of fat usually.

Solution 5, Need2 Bars are both great choices.

Or you could create a concoction from protein factory.

For an MRP, I like this:

25% Oat Muscle
10% Omega Muscle
20% Heliogen Casein
15% IPI protein
10% MIlk Protein
10% Egg White Protein
10% Whole Egg protein
