Muscle Milk


Cytosprots MUSCLE MILK is an excellent product, great taste!

With Muscle Milk you are getting a formula. You have your protein, some carbs and fat and you get about 15 servings per container.

To get more info on this particular product checkout:

Right on Fitness4U! The best tasting shake I've ever had! Try Mocha Joe with ice cubes. It tastes just like iced cappucino. It also has a good blend of fast release and slow release proteins so it is suitable before bedtime (just not Mocha Joe, as it will keep you up).

How much fat? !!!


http://www.advantagesupplements.com/cytmusmil24.html

Lessee, if 1 pound = 453.59237 grams, and there are 15 servings, each with 18g fat (4g of that saturated), then that =

15 servings x 18g fat per serving = 270 grams fat in the can, or .59524 pounds

... and for a 2.48lb can that means that 24% of the can is some kind of fat.

That's some filler.

In contrast a similar product, BSN Bicreatol XS, for a 2.78lb can of 18 servings, is marketed as including omega fatty acids but at only 3.4g of total fat per serving, with 2g of those being saturated fats.

http://www.advantagesupplements.com/bsnbic12.html

Now one thing I couldn't figure out is what it is actually supposed to do... it seems like it's just a mixed protein with some glutamine, and then some vitamins. But no creatine included? It seems pretty expensive for what you get, I don't understand why it would be so popular, other than the fact that it comes in like 100 flavors. But it advertises itself as including creatine precursors? Why take a creatine precursor when you can just get the end product? Seems like a gyp to me.
