Protein is the most important nutrient for muscles, as they are often in a state of flux breaking down and reforming new tissue. Protein is also required for other tissues such as bones, blood, and hormones. Whey protein is considered the ‘best’ protein when compared to other forms available as it contains the highest proportion of essential amino acids which cannot be naturally synthesised by the body. Muscle loss happens as a result of the ageing process, so this formulation has been developed specifically with the over 50s in mind.

What is Maintaining Muscle?
As we get older, start losing muscle mass. After the age of 45, we tend lose around 1% of muscle mass each year, which means that by the time we're 65 years old, we may have lost a quarter of our muscle mass, or even more.
Maintaining Muscle is a tailored blend of key nutrients including whey protein, specifically designed to help you maintain your muscle mass as you get older.
Made with whey protein for its high proportion of essential amino acids, it also includes a combination of vitamin D, zinc, potassium, magnesium and calcium – which contributes to muscle function, along with added lactose to aid digestion.

The email notification from FutureYou Cambridge that the next batch of my supplements is about to be sent is helpful and it is an opportunity to postpone, change or cancel my subscription. My supplements arrive in a timely fashion, well packaged in cardboard, which can be recycled.
