    Reflex Instant Mass: Any good?

    Reflex Instant Mass 6lb Tub

    While other companies still use maltodextrin as the main source of carbohydrate for their weight gain formulas, Reflex Nutrition have taken the initiative and brought you a unique alternative. Instant Mass now contains a unique blend of patented Activated Barley from Sweden and Organic Oats from the heart of Scotland that has an extremely low glycemic index.
    The OFO-Method™ and Activated Barley™.
    Named after the Swedish inventor Owe Forsberg, the OFO-Method is a unique patented natural treatment, (via the exact application of different levels of pressure, humidity and temperature), of organic Barley that increases the energy level of barley whilst activating nutrients and dormant enzymes. The result is Activated BarleyTM, a totally unique, low glycemic index super food that is rich in naturally occurring enzymes, vitamins, minerals, fibre, energy and protein. Each serving of Instant Mass contains a special blend containing 50 grams of complex carbohydrates from Activated Barley and Organic Oats - almost certainly the best source of carbohydrates you will ever find in a weight gain formula.

    52 Grams of Whey Protein and Micellar Casein.
    Reflex Instant Mass contains a revised blend of cold processed ultra filtered Whey Protein Concentrate, Whey Protein Isolate, Milk Protein Concentrate(80% micellar casein /20% whey protein) and Digezyme enzymes.

    For added benefit we now include Lactospore pro-biotics, similar to those found in yoghurt type drinks.

    Great Taste and Easy Mixing
    If you like great tasting milkshakes then you will simply love this formula. It is instantised for easy mixing and tastes absolutely delicious. Just take one or two servings a day.

    Supplement Facts:
    Serving Size: 5 Scoops
    No of Servings: 20

    Amount Per Serving:
    Energy (kCal) - 482
    Energy (kJoules) - 2037
    Protein - 52g
    Carbohydrate - 50g
    (of which sugars) - 3g
    Fat - 8.2g
    (of which saturates) - 2.6g
    (poly-unsaturated) - 3.6g
    (mono-unsaturated) - 2g

    Thinking about this over Pro Mass Chemical Nutrition since it does not contain dextrose, any comments or suggestions for weight gainers?

    its a good product but your paying extra for their "custom formula" and the brand name. you can buy all those ingredients in bulk at www.myprotien.co.uk (i assume you in the uk) and mix them up your self. it works out a lot cheaper
