What is it?
A Gainer is nothing more and nothing less than a source of protein mixed with carbohydrates.
Why?
It is much healthier (and more economical) to make your own homemade gainer.
When?
As a breakfast or snack replacement if you have trouble eating, don’t eat enough or are often on the go and want a quick and complete snack.
After a workout if you don’t eat within 2 hours.
Attention the purpose of the gainer is to supplement your diet, not to replace it.
What quantity?
