FontActiv Protein Vital

Features

With advancing age, there is a gradual loss of muscle mass, strength, and functionality. Muscle mass is directly related to mobility and balance in an individual, so an accelerated loss of it increases the risk of falls and fractures in older adults. This process can be expedited in older individuals with inactivity, such as extended bed rest during convalescence.

In addition to inactivity, inadequate nutrition and loss of appetite are three factors that accelerate the loss of muscle mass. The consumption of proteins decreases in older adults due to various physiological factors (loss of appetite, chewing problems, etc.), which means that daily protein requirements are not met.

Conditions such as muscle loss, muscle weakness, convalescence, involuntary weight loss, or low protein intake through traditional diet require an extra nutritional intake of proteins, where dietary supplements can be useful. A sufficient intake of nutritional proteins helps to slow down the age-related loss of muscle mass.

Therefore, it is recommended to engage in regular exercise and maintain a healthy diet with a good intake of proteins to help preserve muscle health, as muscles play an essential role in healthy aging.
