Question 6

i want to take serious mass gainer supplement. i am 22. thin and want to build my muscle, i just started gym.my gym trainer suggested.

Accepted Answer

Do not take it: Being thin is not a disease. Do not worry about it. As you age you will gain weight and look back at this time fondly when you could eat and not get fat. The proposed supplement can only do harm.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low fat milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Very: Buy them from a reputable supplier sealed. Sometimes well-intentioned folks at the gym will put goodness-knows-what in your "protein shake." this is a great choice and i'm glad you're pursuing a fitness lifestyle.

Question 9

what are the best supplements to take while trying to gain muscle mass?

Accepted Answer

Real, healthy food.: Supplements market to weightlifters are not regulated by the fda, are not tested like medicines, and are at best mostly useless, and at worst dangerous.

A balanced diet of fruits and veg, lean protein, whole grains, and low-fat dairy will more for you  than anything else. If you are trying to gain muscle, about 1.5-2.5 g/kg lean protein body weight is optimum.

Question 10

what's the best brand/supplement you can use to gain muscle mass? creatine, protein powder, etc.

Accepted Answer

Egg whites: Egg whites are pure protein. Creatine is fairly safe as long as you drink plenty of water, but many complain of midsection swelling. Other supplements are unproven and possibly dangerous. I see lots of kidney stones, liver problems, heart problems, and hormone imbalances caused by things that do work, but are dangerous.
