 MONSTER PAK

Overview
Here’s what Scitec have to say:

TOP OF THE LINE MULTI–VITAMIN & MINERAL BASED PERFORMANCE BOOSTER WITH EXTRAS!
INTENSE PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT WITH 3 TYPES OF CREATINES!!
ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS!
STIMULANT COMPLEX!
"KREBS CYCLE–ATP" MATRIX!
NITRIC OXIDE PRECURSOR!
MEGA DAA COMPLEX!
FULL SPECTRUM AMINO ACID COMPLEX!
GLUCOSAMINE, CHONDROITIN, MSM COMPLEX!

MONSTER PAK is our top of the line multi-vitamin and mineral based training PAK with numerous extras. Vitamins and minerals are basic essential nutrients that must be adequately taken in for optimal health and high level sports performance.

MONSTER PAK, among others, features high doses of B-Complex vitamins and Vitamin C (with Rose Hips), plus essential minerals including Selenium and Zinc. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune and nervous systems, and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. It also helps to maintain the normal function of the immune system during and after intense exercise (the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200 mg in addition to the recommended daily intake of Vitamin C)!

Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle and immune system function, and to the normal absorption/utilisation of calcium and phosphorus. Zinc contributes to normal fertility, reproduction and to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels, and also to normal macronutrient metabolism. Magnesium contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system: neurotransmission and muscle contraction including heart muscle; also to normal protein synthesis and to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth. Selenium contributes to normal spermatogenesis, to normal thyroid function and to the maintenance of normal hair, nails.

MONSTER PAK provides a “greens” herbal blend with digestive enzymes. A complete whey protein based amino acid complex is responsible for a supply of essential aminos including BCAA’s. The Nitric Oxide (NO) precursor L-Arginine is also included. MONSTER PAK wouldn’t be complete without stimulants, different forms of L-Carnitine and Creatine, a Glucosamine - Chondroitin - MSM complex, and D-Aspartic Acid!

Due to the amount of ingredients I’ll only include the headings for the extras but a complete list can be found here.

Essential Fatty Acids – Fish Oils etc
Krebs Cycle ATP Matrix – 3 types of Creatine, Coenzyme Q10, Taurine, AKG
Greens Herbal Blend
Nitric Oxide Precursor – L-Arginine
Mega DAA Complex – DAA and testosterone boosting components
Stimulation, Altertness and Performance Complex – Caffeine, L-Carnitine, Green Tea, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Cayenne Pepper etc

This is the largest list of components I’ve ever seen in one supplement. I thought Scitec Jumbo Pak was huge but this absolutely dwarfs it. The is nothing that you will need that isn’t included in this. Everything is dosed very well with the exception of the creatine which is a little bit low to be your daily dose – you’d have to take another supplement to get the full effect.
 
Taste
None of the tablets have a taste but one of the “morning tablets” is powdery and can be a little hard to swallow. The rest are range from medium to large sized capsules that shouldn’t pose a problem for anyone taking them.

Side Effects
None

Price
£37.49 for a tub with 60 packets in (30 morning/30 evening)

Results
This is for the pro’s! Everyone could benefit from it but it was clearly designed with the professionals in mind. This HAS to be the most complete “vitamin/mineral/greens/creatine/everything else” supplement on the market. Scitec have thrown everything their arsenal at this to create a supplement that caters for ever single one of your bodies needs.

If you train hard then your body exhausts its stores of vitamins and minerals faster than you’re average person on the street and as we want to be anything but average we need to keep our bodies functioning at optimal levels. Monster Pak will keep your body running exactly as it is designed to do. There are some fat burning ingredients, testosterone boosting components and even some products to help with your muscle pump.

Scitec are one of the most reliable supplement companies on the market and this is another example of an excellent product from them. It might be a little bit more you are used to paying for a “multi-vitamin” but this is so much more than your standard multi-vit this is the all-in-one of the multi-vitamin world, everything you could possible need and more in one supplement bag that’s been divided out into morning and evening servings. Monster Pak might not be for everyone but if you are a serious athlete then I recommend that you take a serious look at it. 9/10
