HIGH PROTEIN, HIGH ENERGY DRINK MIX WITH CREATINE, AMINO ACIDS, VITAMINS, MINERALS AND WITH ADDED SUGARS & SWEETENER All-in-one protein shake: protein powder is an all-in-one protein shake, with a 54g protein matrix and 5g of creatine per serving. different sources of protein: Muscle Fuel is a protein shake powder that contains protein from five different sources. It also contains a range of essential and branch chain amino acids to ensure optimal protein absorption and support muscle growth. USN Muscle Fuel Anabolic powder delivers 55g of protein per serving which is perfect to deliver amino acids which help with protein synthesis. Protein is the most important part of recovery and muscle maintenance. different sources of protein: Muscle Fuel is a protein shake powder that contains protein from five different sources.

Protein is the most important part of recovery and muscle maintenance. Recommended Usage A blend of casein and whey, usually 80/20. It’s cheap, fairly un-processed, and a cost-effective way of boosting your protein consumption. Also known as egg white, egg albumen is slower absorbing than whey and the soy isolate and provides a great bridge into the slower absorbing proteins. It’s a complete protein, meaning it contains all the essential amino acids the body can’t produce; it’s just a shame we don’t get a breakdown of the weight of each protein in the matrix. Calcium Caseinate It’s far less effective than leucine at inducing muscle protein synthesis, so taking both of them together as seen in USN’s Muscle Fuel Anabolic is a great formula. Beta-Alanine

Denatured protein is still usable in the body, but it makes it far slower at getting into the blood stream and to your muscles. The positives? It’s cheap and soluble in water. It’s mainly used in instant creams and milks. Milk Protein Concentrate We all know them. Simply put: the three essential amino acids that are proven to improve muscle growth. Leucine is our primary BCAA, it directly induces muscle protein synthesis and Isoleucine pulls glucose into cells. More research is needed into the effects of isolated Valine. We get a combined dose of about 9g per serving in USN Muscle Fuel Anabolic , which is middle of the road, but you want to hit around 20g combined per day. Other IngredientsBRAND NEW AND IMPROVED FORMULATION All-in-one protein shake: USN Muscle Fuel Anabolic Strawberry protein powder is an all-in-one protein shake, with a 54g protein matrix and 5000mg of creatine per serving • Premium formulation designed to increase physical performance: Added Vitamin B6 contributes to normal protein and glycogen metabolism, Zinc supports the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, and added Calcium contributes to normal muscle function

Food Supplements are intended to supplement the diet and should not be substituted for a varied diet or healthy lifestyle. Despite the positive peaks in the ingredient list, I find it difficult to come around to this shake. It’s not a hard-gainer shake at 564kcal per serving, and its carb content is all high GI and there to enhance flavour rather than to aid sustained recovery. USN advise having 1-2 servings per day but highlight that if you weigh less than 80 kilos, not to exceed 2 servings per day for the first 5 days and only 1 serving per day after. For those over 80 kilos, take 2-3 servings per day for the first 5 days then reduce to 1-2 servings per day. Who Takes It? Add 3 heaped scoops to 500-600ml of cold water. Use a blender or hand held shaker for about 30 seconds. Advanced ingredients: We develop Muscle Fuel, our all-in-one protein powder, with several advanced ingredients, including Creatine, Free-Form Amino Acids, Avena Sativa, and Tolerase™ L.The Carbohydrate matrix will cause a spike to your blood sugar. Not just from the sugar content but because there are no low GI carbs listed. Overall, I’m a little disappointed in this matrix. It offers the key elements of fast through to slow absorbing proteins, but the quality is varied, and not in the good way. The egg albumen is a nice addition but the calcium caseinate seems like a cheap way of boosting protein content and mixability, when a quality casein would have been superior.
