USN Creatine Anabolic all in One Creatine Amino Muscle Building Stack, Cherry, 900 g (Pack of 1)

Product Information

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. Creatine is a natural substance that can help provide you with energy during workouts and is particularly useful for those engaging in some kind of high-intensity exercise. That can be lifting weights, sprinting or anything else where your muscles are pushed to the max and need some extra juice to help you smash your workout. What is surprising is that USN don’t provide the percentage protein content. Concentrate is typically 35-85%, and other USN ‘Muscle Fuel’ supplements’ include whey protein concentrations of around 45%, so we can assume it’s on the low end. The extraneous ingredients from the low-grade whey will contribute to fat and carb content in the shake. Soy Protein Isolate 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 branched-chain amino acids to ensure optimal protein absorption and aid muscle growth. USN uses current, up-to-date, peer-reviewed nutritional research throughout the development of our products and continue to employ the latest manufacturing protocols. USN manufactures its products according to stringent GMP and BRCGS regulations (where applicable) and, therefore, takes proactive steps to ensure that our products are safe and effective. As part of this system, we ensure that the ingredients used in USN products:

All-in-one protein shake: USN Muscle Fuel Anabolic Chocolate protein powder is an all-in-one protein shake, with a 54g protein matrix and 5g of creatine per serving. Muscle Fuel Anabolic contains 26g of sugar out of a total of 81g of carbs. This is quite a lot of sugar, considering the daily cap for simple sugar for adults is 30g per day. A high protein shake designed to increase physical performance: Muscle Fuel Anabolic is a muscle-building high protein powder and creatine mix. We formulate the powder so each protein shake aids physical performance during successive short bursts of high-intensity exercise. However, the advised dose is 3-5g with meals and before bed, and USN only offers us 1.1g per serving. B-Hydroxy B-Methylbutyric acid (HMB)Many creatine monohydrate products are described as “micronised”, which means it’s been ground into very fine particles so will mix better with water. “Creapure” creatine is often described as the purest form of creatine and costs a bit more, but other micronised creatine monohydrate supplements offer similar levels of purity. How much does creatine cost? Creatine monohydrate is not only the cheapest and most common form of creatine, but it’s also the best choice. It’s been researched well, and no other formulation has been shown to be more beneficial in terms of improving performance.

The human body produces some creatine naturally and it’s also present in some foods such as red meat, but only in small amounts, making supplements a good option for those who train regularly. What forms does creatine come in? SUPPORTING POWER AND STRENGTH: Here at USN, we use only the best quality raw creatines available in the formulation of our creatine and creatine-containing supplements to ensure maximum. 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. Amino acid and neurotransmitter (chemical messenger that transfers signals across the synapse), glycine has been shown to reduce fatigue and boost cognition through improving quality of sleep.

Ingredients

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? Tri-calcium phosphate, Magnesium lactate, Tri-potassium citrate, Stabiliser (cellulose gum), Sodium chloride, Taurine, Sweeteners (Sucralose, Acesulfame-K), L-Glutamine, Avena sativa, Vitamin blend (Ascorbic acid, Pteroyl-l-glutamate, D-alpha tocopherol, Nicotinamide, D-calcium pantothenate, Retinyl palmitate, Methylcobalamine, Biotin, Cholecalciferol), Glutamine peptide (Gluten), Anti-caking agent (Silicon dioxide), Zinc bisglycinate, Tolerase™L (pH-stable lactase). 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 A metabolite of the muscle protein synthesis boosting amino acid leucine, HMB is a great addition when paired with every athletes’ favourite amino acid. Being a metabolite simply means it’s a product of leucine being broken down. This happens to about 5% of leucine in the body and HMB has been seen to be very effective at reducing muscle breakdown. When assessing costs, take into account how many servings you will get, rather than just going by the cost per tub. The recommended dose is 3-5g (up to one teaspoon) of creatine after training, so 1kg will last many months.

MUSCLE DEVELOPMENT: We ensure that our premium formulations choose whey proteins with only the best quality proteins, amino acids, and other proven ingredients. We always deliver a supplement that is optimized for maximum muscle development. 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

Safety/ Side Effects

Along with the 5g of creatine monohydrate this powder contains, you’re also getting 29g of protein, which is a mix of pea, brown rice, pumpkin and flaxseed protein, along with quinoa flour. This ensures you’re getting a complete protein source that contains all the essential amino acids in the right amounts.
