One of the best weight gainers around the supplement sphere is the BSN TRUE MASS. It really works out like a charm. It was awarded the best weight gainer by bodybuilding.com in the year since 2008 and is a tough contender this year too.
I have used it a few times and the results don't disappoint. And truly it soothes the taste. Comes in many flavors, go for the Vanilla taste though. Superb taste.
Product details are as follows-
TRUEMASS is a macronutrient-heavy lean mass gainer tailored specifically towards people looking for the additional caloric support necessary to maximize lean muscle mass gains, and for individuals that require a heightened level of nutrients owing to a higher metabolic rate.* TRUEMASS contains a multi-functional A.M. to P.M. protein blend that feeds your muscles for up to 8 hours, a blend of complex carbohydrates that provides useable energy for your muscular frame, along with Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) and Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) for heart health and hormonal support.* Further supporting TRUEMASS is the addition of Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's) for positive nitrogen balance, fiber for nutrient uptake, glutamine peptides for recovery and glutamine alpha ketoglutarate for maximal anti-catabolic effects.*

Product Profile:
TRUEMASS-Proprietary Protein Matrix:
Hydrolyzed Whey Protein ( 1/2 - 1 hour digestion rate)
Ultra-Filtered Whey Protein Concentrate (2-3 hour digestion rate)
Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate (2-3 hour digestion rate)
Egg Albumen (2-3 hour digestion rate)
Milk Protein Concentrate (4-6 hour digestion rate)
Calcium Caseinate (6-8 hour digestion rate)
Micellar Alpha and Beta-Caseins and Caseinates (6-8 hour digestion rate)
Each of TRUEMASS's proteins provides a unique and complimentary profile of amino acids and absorption rates, ensuring that your muslces never run out of protein building blocks.*
Sustained-Release Multi-Functional Micellar Protein Matrix: Contains fast and slow digesting proteins, which supports/elevates circulating amino acid nitrogen levels for up to 7 hours.* Suitable for A.M. or P.M. use.
Glycogen Uptake Matrix: Unique blend of carbohydrates that is suitable for A.M. to P.M. use; assists with recovery and energy for exercise.*
Glutamine Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AKG) and Glutamine Peptides: Glutamine AKG and glutamine peptides serve as efficient and stable forms of glutamine for maintaining whole-body glutamine supplies.*
Bioactive Protein Utilization Enzymes (Aminogen and Papain): Promotes optimum protein digestion and absorption, which improves uptake of amino acids by the muscle.*
Fiber Matrix: Fiber supports gastrointestinal health, increasing the surface area that the body can absorb nutrients across, which increases nutrient uptake and utilization.*
MCTs (Medium Chain Triglycerides), and EFAs (Essential Fatty Acids): MCTs are a fast-burning energy source, much like a carb.* They promote the oxidation of fat over carbohydrate and help regulate appetite.* EFAs (essential fatty acids) are not produced by the body and must be consumed in order to prevent deficiency.
Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) and Essential and Non-Essential Amino Acids: Contains more than adequate amounts of every amino acid required in the human diet.
BSN's Exclusive Advanced Flavor Technology: A breakthrough in flavor technology that replicates some of the most mouthwatering shakes you have ever taste.

So you see, there are a lot of plus points. But there is a demerit of it being too costly against its competitor ON Serious Mass which I shall be posting tomorrow.
P.S- I was busy with my projects, academics, had been through a lot these days, laptop was stolen and life sucked up. But I am back and I won't disappoint you guys. Watch out.
