USN Diet Fuel UltraLean Strawberry 1KG: Meal Replacement Shake, Diet Protein Powders for Weight Control and Lean Muscle Development

Product Information

The whey protein USN uses is scientifically formulated for optimal lean muscle maintenance and growth in the body. This high-quality protein allows you to reach your goals and put your all into exercise. Similar but inferior to micellar casein, it’s cheaper and has just as much protein by weight. Calcium caseinate is produced by altering the pH of milk to be more acidic using chemicals and making the casein insoluble. When separated, the casein is combined with calcium hydroxide to form calcium caseinate. During this process the proteins are well and truly denatured, making them less bioavailable and even slower to absorb than micellar casein. I’d love to have seen a blend using more micellar casein instead of this. Although USN could be clearer with the amounts of each ingredient, what they do deliver is a huge list of ingredients, vitamins and minerals that will help contribute to general health. This is important in a product designed for people in calorific deficits, as the nature of dieting can increase the chances of deficiencies.

Diet Fuel Ultra Lean provides us with 2.5g of fat per serving. This is provided by the extraneous part of the whey concentrate (a mix of milk sugars and fats), and the addition of sunflower oil as a powder. A great source of omega 6 fatty acids, sunflower oil contains healthy, unsaturated fats, and has been shown to reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol, boost HDL cholesterol and reduce risk of heart disease. Tri-potassium citrate, Garcinia cambogia (1.8%), Micronised milk mineral complex, Rice starch, Stabilisers (Guar & Xanthan gum), Magnesium oxide, Non-nutritive sweetener (Sucralose), Ascorbic acid, Ferrous fumarate, D-Alphatocopheryl acetate, Zinc citrate, Nicotinamide, Manganese ascorbate, Tolerase™L (pH-stable lactase), Copper bisglycinate, D-Calcium pantothenate, Retinyl palmitate, Cyanocobalamin, Biotin, Cholecalcipherol, Pyridoxine HCl, Riboflavin, Thiamin HCl, Chromium picolinate, Potassium iodate, Folic acid, Sodium selenite We can’t compare the doses unfortunately as none are included. But I’d go out on a limb and say that 2.4g is far more than in USN Diet Fuel Ultra Lean. Fibre

The use of soy protein here is probably to help bump up the protein content due the low-grade whey concentrate and other ingredients that pad the protein out. e.g the fibre content.

When choosing an alternative flavor, the nutritional values may vary slightly.

Similar to its whey counterpart, soy protein isolate achieves no less than 90% protein content by weight. Soy protein has been seen to aid in weight loss and protect muscle mass just as effectively as whey protein. Overall USN Diet Fuel Ultra Lean has all the hallmarks of a weight loss shake; it just doesn’t offer anything we haven’t seen before. There has been some effort to reduce the GI of the carbs by using rice starch and adding fibre to the mix, but the sunflower oil content is negligible in the bigger picture. Milk protein, often around 90% protein by weight, is a rich source of BCAAs and glutamine. The great thing about casein is its slow absorption and ability to form a gel in the gut. This works in combination with whey in a recovery or maintenance shake: the initial boost to protein synthesis thanks to the whey protein is followed up by the slower absorbing casein. Casein has been seen to be the most effective form of protein for supplementation to aid protein synthesis. Soy protein isolateUSN Diet Fuel Ultralean is a high fibre and high protein meal replacement shake formula, which can be consumed as a convenient yet nutritious meal on the go.
