Mass Gainers have protein, yes, but the “gain” comes from the overload of carbs and calories packed into the powder. There are protein powders and there are mass gainer powders (that also include protein):

Protein powder = high protein, low carb, low calorie. For lean gains.

Mass Gainers = high protein + high calories + high carbs.

I, too, have difficulty gaining weight (my wife hates me for it). Took protein powders all the time and, with extensive weight lifting, just couldn’t increase my weight or pack on muscle. Then a friend of mine suggested a Mass Gainer shake.

Holy smokes!

Never looked back…
