Everything seems to be good: drink capsules and gain weight, but let's get back to reality. The manufacturer on the official website says that it is necessary to give preference to protein foods, avoiding the use of fats. What weight can be gained during the course is not reported, supposedly these are the individual characteristics of the organism. Indeed, if protein predominates in the diet, then mainly muscle mass will be formed, and when eating fatty foods and carbohydrates, the body fat will grow.
According to reviews, you can gain 6-10 kilograms per month. But does any of the people taking the supplement think about how much weight you can gain in a month without causing harm to health. It seems that the figure of 10 kg is still too much, and quite serious.

It is a glucocorticosteroid drug that affects the central nervous system, has anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. The additive, by the way, is included in the list of vital drugs, however, only doctors are engaged in its appointment, and the indications for use are rather serious pathologies.
Exposure
First, about the composition of the dietary supplement.
- When studying various sources, the Shandan ginseng plant was not found, and the region called Shandan is located in Dagestan. Various species of this plant grow in the Far East, Altai, Tibet, China, Vietnam, one species grows in North America and is called five-leafed. In some sources, the same component of the remedy is called fine-haired condopsis. This plant is actually used in ancient Chinese medicine.
- Ginseng root is used as an adaptogen, can be used to increase appetite, and has a stimulating effect.
- There were no articles about big-headed atractylodes, membranous astragalus, Japanese quince fruits were not found on authoritative sites, the rest simply praise herbs, endowing them with all kinds of healing properties.
- It is also not clear with deer antlers: what kind of deer is not specified. Most likely, we are talking about antlers - deer horns during their growth. This remedy, according to some sources, is used in Chinese medicine to maintain youth and strength, and was widely advertised in the early 2000s. Today it is already clear that antler products do not have a pronounced declared effect.
- Now about dexamethasone: this substance affects protein metabolism in the following way - it reduces the production and increases the catabolism (breakdown) of proteins in muscle tissues. Consequently, the volume and mass of muscle fibers decrease.
According to the reviews of people who took Samyun wan, weight is indeed gaining, but for most it is fat, not muscle mass. After stopping the intake, the weight also quietly goes away. In addition, almost all consumers complain of skin rashes that appear a couple of days after starting the course.
Data on any clinical trials of this bioactive supplement could not be found. What is in these capsules, what delayed health effects may occur, is also unclear.
For people who adhere to the norms of a healthy lifestyle, who want to gain muscle mass, we can advise: eat right, regularly expose muscles to stress, and correctly alternate periods of activity and rest. Only by following these rules, it is possible to gain mass without harm to health precisely by increasing the muscles.
