The Power of Protein

Low-Fat Protein Sources and Coach Ray Traitz's Insight

As we age, maintaining adequate protein intake becomes increasingly crucial for supporting muscle mass, strength, and overall health. Protein serves as the building blocks for tissues, enzymes, hormones, and immune cells, playing a pivotal role in preserving vitality and promoting longevity.

As we age, our bodies undergo physiological changes that can lead to muscle loss, decreased metabolism, and reduced nutrient absorption. These age-related changes underscore the importance of prioritizing protein intake to support muscle maintenance, bone health, and metabolic function. Adequate protein intake has been linked to improved physical function, greater resistance to illness, and enhanced quality of life in older adults.
