Maintain Strength & Vitality with High-Quality Protein

As we get older, our bodies naturally begin to lose muscle mass but the good news is that protein helps maintain muscle and supports an active, independent lifestyle.

The Nutristrength protein range offers two high-quality protein options, Whey or Pea to suit your preferences and needs.

✅ A High-Protein Source
✅ Gentle on Digestion
✅ Free from Unnecessary Additives
✅ GMP Manufactured and Third-Party Tested for Quality Assurance

Why Protein Matters As You Age

✔ Protein contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass
✔ Protein contributes to the maintenance of normal bones

Did you know?

🔸 After age 50, adults can lose up to 1–2% of muscle mass per year if protein intake and physical activity aren't maintained.
🔸 Muscle is vital for mobility, balance, and everyday independence.
🔸 Our bodies become less efficient at using protein as we age, which makes high-quality sources like whey and pea protein more important.
🔸 Protein makes up around 50% of bone volume, playing an essential role in maintaining bone strength alongside calcium.

Whether you enjoy sporty pursuits, walks, gardening, or simply want to stay strong for daily life, protein provides the building blocks to support an active lifestyle.

Are You Getting Enough Protein?

Experts recommend that older adults aim for 1.0–1.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day, higher than the general adult recommendation.

💡 If you weigh 70 kg (approx. 11 stone), that’s 70–84 grams of protein per day.
Many people don’t meet this through food alone , especially with smaller appetites or busy schedules.

A whey or pea protein supplement is a simple and convenient way to top up your intake and help meet your daily needs.

Simple, Clean, and Easy to Use, our Nutristrength protein range is perfect for:

• Stirring into porridge
• Blending into smoothies
• Adding to yoghurt or baked goods

 

✨ A convenient daily protein boost — with no artificial flavours or sweeteners.
