PVL Sport Gainer - Creamy Vanilla is a high-protein mass gainer from PVL Pure Vita Labs in a 1.52 kg tub. One serving is 4 scoops, about 216 g of powder, and the Nutrition Facts table lists 860 Calories, 40 g of protein and 160 g of carbohydrate per serving. It is sweetened with purified stevia leaf extract, and the front of the tub says it has 80% less sugar than the original Sport Gainer.
Where the Calories come from
Most of the Calories come from the Clean Carb Blend: maltodextrin, barley, quinoa, sweet potato and brown rice. The Clean Protein Blend is three wheys, concentrate, hydrolysate and isolate. Medium chain triglycerides from fractionated coconut oil and flax seed powder add a little fat, 7 g per serving. Sugars come to 8 g per 216 g serving, and there are 4 g of fibre.
What else is in the tub
The formula includes a digestive blend of chicory root extract, cinnamon, lactase and protease enzymes and the probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum. Ascorbic acid supplies vitamin C, at 50% of the Daily Value per serving, and the serving also gives 20% of the Daily Value for calcium. The label states no artificial sweeteners, preservatives, colours or flavours.
How big a serving is
At 860 Calories, a full 4-scoop serving is the size of a large meal, so the 1.52 kg tub holds about 7 full servings. Many people split it into two shakes of 2 scoops each, one after training and one between meals, which doubles the number of drinks per tub to about 14. Check the scoop count and liquid amount on the tub before mixing.
Who it suits
Adults who train hard, find it hard to eat enough, and want extra Calories and protein in a drink. It contains milk (whey), barley, soy lecithin and coconut oil, and it is made in a facility that also handles egg, peanut, wheat and tree nut (hazelnut). People who only want more protein, not more Calories, would pick a whey such as PVL Sport Whey instead.

I like the product and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good quality sport gainer. I like the taste, it is creamy and vanilla, which I find really nice. The texture is also great, it's not too thick or too thin. It dissolves easily in water and doesn't leave any unpleasant aftertaste. I have been using this
