What is Golden GAINS™ ?

Golden GAINS™: Premium Nutrient Delivery

15 Servings (1324 grams) Homemade Apple Pie

Key Attributes:

- Premium ingredients
- Postworkout or any time nutrition
- Real Meal with Protein, Carbs, Healthy Fats and Fruits & Vegetables
- 98% sugar free
- Prevent catabolism and achieve fitness goals
- Support muscle glycogen and recovery
- Convenient all in one formula
- Great taste



Now that you've made fitness a part of your lifestyle, treat yourself to Golden GAINS™ after every workout. Formulated with precise amounts of protein, amino acids, healthy fats, and designer carbohydrates, we enhanced Golden GAINS™ further by adding exclusive “super-nutrients” to help support the athletic lifestyle.

The GoldPro protein complex delivers essential and branched chain amino acids so crucial for lean muscle tissue and recovery between workouts. Featuring both immediate and sustained proteins for constant assimilation, now you no longer need to choose between great taste, mixability, and value... get everything you need with Golden GAINS™.

The GoldCarb Complex, our exclusive carbohydrate blend, offers the best of both worlds with efficient premium highly processed waxy maize and natural oats for a CONTROLLED insulin response and great taste and a good dose of fiber. As a bonus, this formula may help optimize hormone ratios and combat toxins, post-workout crash and adrenal fatigue.

The HealthyFat Complex is a blend of healthful fats that athletes consume to optimize performance. It has the potential to help optimize blood sugar levels, enhance cardiovascular health and scavenge free radicals.

The Fruit & Veggie Complex relies on 5,000mg of the best organic fruit and vegetables available. Other formulas rely almost strictly on macro nutrients and ignore the importance of micronutrients in a post workout setting (as well as all day), which is not the case with Golden GAINS™. Micronutrients are plentiful in fruits and vegetables and help form a solid nutritional foundation that is essential for muscle growth. This complex also helps to convert the body from the “acidic environment” of most bodybuilding diets, to a more basic one that is needed for optimal lean muscle mass GAINS™ and overall health.

For optimal post-workout cellular anabolism, look no further than our GFH Complex. We included crucial Electrolytes and Taurine to work in synergy, keeping your muscles in an anabolic state at the cellular level and for as long as possible. As a bonus, it appears that this complex may even help reduce muscle cramping and unnecessary soreness.

With your health and performance in mind, Golden GAINS™ delivers!

rr was good enouh to let me try this, much thanks. this is the best meal replacement i have ever used. not only is it great for post-workout but if you are ever in a hurry and don't have the time or the means for a complete meal, then this is the stuff you need. the 3 servings of fruit/veggies are the whipped cream on the top, lol. i just ordered another jug of this and will continue to use. best meal replacement i have tried, beats the hell out of protein shakes and bars as a complete replacement.:thumbsup:

Tried my sample. Gotta say, this stuff is tasty. Kind of a tart apple flavor. Not over sweet, which is good. It also mixes easily.

How can I get this, when will it beat gnc? I dont want to pay what your home site sales it for so I'm guessing it will be cheaper at gnc.

The formula changed quite a bit so maybe they wanted to try something a bit different with the new mix of ingredients.

To gain a fuller answer maybe email tank[@]controlledlabs.com

its a good ingredient, but the formula is completely comprehensive the way it is now. k-rala is very expensive and many people like to add it on their own anyway, so it didnt find a place in the final formula.

let me know if you have any questions about the formula itself and I will be happy to give you as much info as we have. :)

hey, i was given the opportunity to log this when it first came out. i loved it then, and still do. i have probably bought 6-8 tubs of the stuff and use it often. mainly i use it as a meal replacement at work, but i also use as a post workout when i am not low on it. this stuff beats the hell out of regular protein drink or bar when you are rushed for time or on the go. good stuff. btw-i really didn't like the taste much at first but i have come to really like it.

glad to hear it guys. its on special right now at nutraplanet, jump on that asap :)
golden gains is a supplement my wife never complains about when i buy it. i use 1 or 2 servings at work every night and save a ton of dough, not to mention the good nutrition. most of the guys either bring in fast food or send out for pizza- in the long run golden gains saves me cash. best meal replacement i have tried.

It is definitely top notch in taste. I really like Purple Intrain to switch up my PW streaks. I still like to switch back and forth though.
