    Are protein shakes “good” for you?

    Protein shakes can be an excellent addition to a well-rounded diet and healthy lifestyle. Research has shown that supplementing with protein can support athletic performance, post-workout recovery, weight management, muscle maintenance, and muscle growth.

    Can protein shakes support weight gain?

    Protein shakes may support weight gain if they contribute to a calorie surplus in your diet.

    Can protein shakes support weight loss?

    Research has shown that protein-rich foods temporarily rev up your metabolism and can help make you feel satiated longer, which may contribute to weight loss.

    Are protein shakes "good" for women?

    Supplementing with protein is as beneficial for women as it is for men in supporting muscle growth and maintenance, recovery, and performance.

    How can protein supplements benefit my muscles?

    Protein supplements provide the nutrients your body needs to stimulate muscle protein synthesis and support recovery post-workout.

  • BodyTech
    L-Citrulline Powder - Fermented - Unflavored (3.17 oz./30
    • Supports exercise endurance
    • Promotes nitric oxide production
    • Unflavored

    Trying to take every workout a rep, a mile, or even a minute further than the last? Power up with BodyTech Fermented L-Citrulline. L-citrulline is an amino acid that supports exercise endurance and muscular pumps by promoting nitric oxide production in the body.

    You can enjoy this unflavored powder alone, or add it to your pre, intra-, or post-workout stack.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is fermented l-citrulline and how does it differ from other forms of citrulline?

    Fermented l-citrulline is derived from fermented vegetables. Unlike other forms of citrulline which are derived from synthetic or animal alternatives, fermented citrulline is considered "pure."

    Why is nitric oxide important?

    Nitric oxide plays a key role in exercise endurance because it's a vasodilator. A vasodilator is a substance that supports the dilation of blood vessels for increased blood flow.

What are mass gainers?

Mass gainers—also known as weight gainer supplements—are high-calorie protein powders that combine protein, carbohydrates, and essential nutrients to support:

  • Muscle growth and recovery
  • Caloric surplus for weight gain
  • Post-workout replenishment
  • Nutritional support for active lifestyles

Who might benefit from taking weight gainers?

A weight gainer protein powder may benefit individuals with fast metabolisms who struggle to gain weight in the form of muscle mass, even with the help of a regular fitness regimen. They’re ideal for athletes in bulking phases and those who need help reaching a calorie surplus.

What should I look for in a mass gainer protein powder?

When choosing the best mass gainer for your goals, consider these key factors:

Protein Content

Gainer products usually have around 20 to 50+ grams of protein per serving, often from whey, casein , or plant-based sources like pea protein.

Carbohydrates & Calories

Mass gainers typically contain higher-carb content to help fuel workouts and promote weight gain. Choose a formula that aligns with your dietary needs—some offer lower-carb options for lean bulking.

Added Nutrients

Many gainers include vitamins, minerals, creatine, and digestive enzymes to support overall wellness and nutrient absorption.

Dietary Preferences

If you're following a restrictive eating plan or have food allergies or sensitivities, look for a formula that fits your diet. Manufacturers offer gluten-free mass gainer solutions, dairy-free mass gainer products, vegetarian/vegan options, and more.

Flavor

Enjoy classic gainer protein powder flavors like chocolate and vanilla, or go unflavored for custom blending. Even sugar-free mass gainers can taste great!

Can I use a mass gainer as a meal replacement?

While not intended to act as meal replacement, mass gainers can supplement meals or serve as a high-calorie snack between meals.

How often should I take a mass gainer?

The right amount and frequency per day will vary by individual. Some people take it once or twice daily—post-workout and/or between meals. Follow the label instructions for intended use.

Where can I buy mass gainer powder?
