Weight Gainer + health issues?
Hi guys. My buddies finally had enough of my whining about me wanting to gain wait, so they decided to get me a tub of weight gainer since my birthday is coming up. Anyway, one of my friends mentioned that weight gainer supposedly causes liver and kidney problems. I'm not sure if he meant through long term use or what. Does anyone have any information regarding this?
My next question is regarding the weight gainer itself. I searched around the forum and saw that one of the weight gainers (I think named N-large2 or something) contained 52 grams of protein per serving. Mine only has 10. And it's loaded with sugar. I mean LOADED. It gives about 140 grams of carbs, but 76 of those are sugar. I'm no dietician, but doesn't that mean i'd have to cut out any other sugar i'm eating? Especially if I take 2 servings a day.
My final question is regarding alternatives. On some of the threads that I saw, they mentioned eating a lot. I was thinking that (since I already have it) I would take 1 serving of weight gainer after I work out. And bring extra bread/tuna every day and try to have a tuna sandwich twice a day aside from breakfast/lunch/dinner. Would that help me gain weight/muscle as effectively as taking that weight gainer twice every work out day?
ANY and I mean ANY help (regarding diet, exercise, weight gainer, anything relevant) will be GREATLY appreciated because I know absolutely nothing about this supplement stuff.
