What it is: Quick carbohydrates, usually made from corn.

Why it's used: Used as fillers, carriers or fast carbs.

Our take: Okay. Fine for most families, in moderation.

Why it's used: Adds or rounds out flavor.

Our take: Okay. We try to find out every detail we can, as far as brands are willing to share. That isn’t always possible, because some brands keep exact formulas private to protect them from knock-offs.

Why it's flagged: "Natural flavor" can come from many different plant or animal sources, and U.S. rules don’t require the specific components to be listed, so some families like to know more about what’s behind the term. Source

Description

Transparent Labs Mass Gainer formula offers whole food-based, muscle-building nutrients in a delicious, easily digestible powder form—perfect as a meal replacement shake and for post-workout recovery during a bulking phase.

Unlike many weight-gainer powders, we prioritize high-quality, natural ingredients to help you gain serious mass while supporting overall health and longevity.

FAQs

Is a Mass Gainer the Same as a Protein Powder?

No. While mass gainers contain protein, they are not the same as protein powders. A protein powder typically contains just protein (with small/trace amounts of fat and carbs), whereas a weight (mass) gainer is formulated with protein plus carbs and fats; hence, weight gainers have considerably more calories than protein powders, and are better suited for muscle-building and weight gain.

Is it OK to Use a Mass Gainer Every Day?

Yes, you can use Transparent Labs Mass Gainer daily. However, it's important to use it as a supplement to other calorie-contributing foods and not as your primary source of nutrients.

Will Mass Gainer Help Me Build Muscle Mass Even if I Don't Workout?

No. Your muscles need a stimulus for hypertrophy to occur, and resistance training is the best (natural) way to provide that stimulus. Nutrients, especially protein, help your muscles rebuild after you've "damaged" them from exercise. If you remove exercise from the equation but continue eating a surplus of calories, you will gain mostly body fat (which may be beneficial and necessary if you're severely underweight).

Are there Side Effects of Taking a Mass Gainer?

Generally, mass gainer supplements are well-tolerated, but digestive discomfort and bloating may occur in some instances, depending on your overall diet, gastrointestinal integrity, and inherent ingredient tolerances. We strongly recommend starting with a half-serving of Transparent Labs Mass Gainer for the first week so you can better assess how it affects your body.

Does Transparent Labs Mass Gainer Contain Nuts?

Yes, it contains coconut and milk-based ingredients. Do not consume if you have an allergy to tree nuts or dairy.

Ingredients

Active Ingredients and Benefits

*Refer to label for ingredient doses (vary by flavor)

Grass-fed Whey Protein Concentrate

Protein, especially complete protein (i.e. a protein source that provides all nine essential amino acids), is paramount for muscle protein synthesis, which ultimately contributes to muscle growth. Unlike many mass gainers that use low-quality protein sources, Transparent Labs Mass Gainer features grass-fed whey protein concentrate, a clean, easy-to-digest, complete protein well-known to bolster muscle growth [1].

Healthy Fats (from MCT Oil and Coconut Milk)

Not all fat is "bad"; in fact, some fats are quite healthy and necessary (especially for weight gain). We've upped the ante by including an ample dose of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) from MCT oil and coconut milk. MCTs are a special class of saturated fatty acids that are quickly absorbed and provide unique health benefits, such as increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (aka the "good" cholesterol) and fighting inflammation [2].

Organic Tapioca Maltodextrin, Oat Flour, and Sweet Potato Powder

The carbohydrates in our weight-gain formula come from real food sources, including organic tapioca, oat flour, and sweet potato. This blend provides a balanced, easy-to-digest supply of fast-acting, long-lasting energy and replenishes muscle glycogen after workouts.

Tapioca Fiber and VitaFiber®

Fiber intake is essential for maintaining gut health and supporting digestion, especially with a high-protein diet. The prebiotic fiber sources in Transparent Labs Mass Gainer, like VitaFiber®, feed the "friendly" microbes in your gastrointestinal tract, helping them grow and proliferate so you can better digest nutrients and stay “regular”.

Creatine Monohydrate

Creatine monohydrate has stood the test of time, and then some. It is the most proven athletic supplement, with decades of scientific evidence demonstrating its positive impacts on muscle-building, recovery, and athletic performance [3,4].

Always refer to the product label for the most current Supplement Facts.

Directions & Warnings

Directions:

Follow these simple steps to maximize your muscle-building potential with Transparent Labs Mass Gainer and ensure you're getting the most out of every shake:

Mixing Instructions

  • For a Perfect Weight-Gain Shake: Add two heaping scoops (scoop included in the container) of Transparent Labs Mass Gainer to 16 ounces of water or milk in a shaker cup with a wire whisk ball. If you prefer a richer, creamier texture and additional calories, opt for milk—whole or low-fat varieties are best.
  • Shake It Up: Secure the lid on your shaker cup and shake vigorously until the powder is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth. No clumps should be present for the best taste and texture experience.

Optimal Consumption Times

  • Post-Exercise Recovery: The ideal time to consume Transparent Labs Mass Gainer is immediately after you finish working out. This timing takes advantage of the critical post-workout period when your muscles are primed for recovery and growth.
  • Meal Replacement: On days you're not working out or when you need an extra calorie boost, Transparent Labs Mass Gainer can serve as a high-calorie meal replacement or an addition to your meals to help meet your daily caloric and nutritional needs.

Gradual Introduction

  • Start Slow (1/2 Serving): For those new to mass gainers, begin with half a serving (1 heaping scoop) daily for the first week. This allows your body to adjust to the increased caloric intake and assess your digestive tolerance.
  • Increase to One Full Serving: Gradually increase to a full serving (2 heaping scoops) after you've had time to acclimate to using a mass gainer.

Use Daily for Maximum Effectiveness

  • Consistency Is Key: For best results, incorporate Transparent Labs Mass Gainer into your daily nutrition regimen. Regular use, combined with a balanced diet and intense training program, will support significant gains in muscle mass and strength.
  • Storage: To preserve the potency, store Mass Gainer in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent moisture from affecting the powder.

Warning: Keep out of reach of children. Consult your physician before use if you are under 18, pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Read the product label for full warnings.
