GNC is a nutritional supplement maker that develops nutritional products through scientific research. As a result of research and development, GNC created the Mega Men supplements specially designed for the active male body. The multivitamin supplement is a blended formula that is available in a powder or pill and combines antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and other key nutrients.
Dosage
The Mega Men Maximum Nutrition Formula is available in a powder that contains 90 calories per serving---or two scoops---while the Vitapak Mega Men comes in a one-serving packet with 0 calories. Each supplement is designed to be used once daily.
Function
Designed for an active male, Mega Men nutrition supports heart, cholesterol, eye, prostate and sexual health. It also provides essential vitamins and minerals for energy production, digestive support and antioxidant protection. The specific formula is also designed for superior absorption into the digestive system.
Amino Acids
Protein is composed of individual amino acids that serve as the building blocks for muscle. Males require essential amino acids for muscle health and strength and Mega Men supplies an amino acid blend with L-arginine and branched chain amino acids, or BCAA. BCAA helps to decrease recovery time between workouts by preventing muscle breakdown.
Vitamins and Minerals
The vitamins, minerals and specific amounts are specifically designed for male health concerns. A vitamin B complex helps produce energy and maintain metabolism while zinc and L-arginine are important for maintaining blood vessel health. Each serving of Mega Men supplies a blend of B vitamins and 400mcg of folic acid. Vitamin A supports eye health and one serving of Mega Men provides 100 percent of the daily recommended value. Other vitamins and minerals include selenium, vitamin C and vitamin E.
Additional Nutrition
The Mega Men Maximum Nutrition Formula contains several other nutritional benefits. One serving contains 5g of dietary fiber that promotes colon and digestive system health. A fruit and vegetable blend supplements a healthy diet and provides essential antioxidants to destroy free radicals. An omega fatty acid blend supplies a natural source of GLA that supports healthy cardiovascular function.
