Do you find it hard to get enough protein?
Whether you lift weights, run, or are simply trying to stay strong as you get older, protein matters. But eating chicken, eggs and Greek yoghurt at every meal is not always realistic. Protein Power makes it simpler: one level scoop in a glass of milk or water and you have a vanilla shake with 10 to 14 g of protein.
Protein contributes to a growth in muscle mass and to the maintenance of muscle mass. That is relevant when you train, but also when you are cutting calories, because you want to keep the muscle you have. Each serving also provides magnesium, which contributes to normal protein synthesis and normal muscle function, and vitamin B6, which contributes to normal protein and glycogen metabolism.
What makes the powder different is the mix of five protein sources: soy protein isolate, whey protein, calcium caseinate, milk protein and egg white powder. Together they give a broad amino acid profile, including 8.6 g leucine per 100 g. LR developed the formula with nutrition scientists and tests every production step against its quality standards.
Who is it for? It suits gym-goers and runners, people trying to lose weight while keeping their muscle, and older adults whose appetite has become smaller. A vanilla shake is easier to manage than another portion of chicken.
