Did you know that your body begins to lose muscle mass as early as your late 20s? After age 60, the rate of loss increases dramatically. Unless, of course, you do something about it. Exercise and proper nutrition are key. The first part is up to you, but we can help with the nutrition side. Swanson Senior Muscle Retention Protein Powder is packed full of quality protein—25 grams per serving—from whey protein concentrate (from grass-fed, hormone free cows), pea protein and whole goat milk.Not just for gym fanatics, protein does more than build and repair muscle—it transports oxygen throughout the body to promote energy, is key to proper enzyme function and helps regulate hormone levels. The musculoskeletal benefits of protein supplementation positively impact aging by supporting body composition and cardiovascular wellness. Mature adults actually have greater protein needs than younger people as the body becomes less adept at processing proteins as we age. That’s why we formulated Swanson Senior Muscle Retention Protein Powder for easy digestion and assimilation.This vanilla-flavored formula has no added sugar and is sweetened with stevia. It includes ModCarb™, a certified organic blend of six grains—oat bran, amaranth, quinoa, buckwheat, millet and chia—and FiberSol®-2 soluble fiber. ModCarb is designed to help supply energy to muscles so you can maintain healthy activity levels. Its complex carbs promote glucose utilization which helps prevent the “sugar crash. Protein plus the soluble fiber from ModCarb and FiberSol-2 help you feel fuller longer and maintain healthy cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Protein-rich foods have a lower impact on blood sugar levels compared to carbohydrates, allowing for more stable glucose levels throughout the day. This complements GLP-1 medications, contributing to improved glycemic control.Just blend with milk or water for a delicious, nutritious shake. Also available in a rich chocolate flavor. Looking for a Companion to Your GLP-1 Weight Management Journey? Maintaining lean muscle is central to a healthy body composition, not only because it allows you to continue the exercise that is key to successful weight loss, muscle tissue also burns more calories while at rest than fat. Unfortunately, many people using GLP-1 agonists report muscle loss. Making sure you are getting enough protein in your diet helps to build and maintain healthy muscle. Experts recommend spacing out your intake to 25-40 grams every 3-4 hours for optimal results.
