After 75: Will protein help?

Absolutely! Proteins are large, complex molecules that play many, many critical roles in the body. They do most of the work in cells and are required for the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues and organs.

First...lifting weights is better for bone density, period. Resistance exercise is known to increase bone density. As for the difference between the two: both contain collagen. The Amino formula also contains certain additional amino acids that supports tasks of mental functioning and the GI system. You could make the Amino formula yourself on a 'per dose' way by adding Carnitine, L-Glutamine and Inositol. When I was waiting for the Amino formula to become available, I added L-Glutamine, Phosphatidyl Serine and MAP -- and got the same kind of concentration that I get just drinking down a serving of these. Gelatin could mean anything and sourced from anything, anywhere. Friedlander's collagen is sourced from grassfed European stock (steers). No growth hormone is the norm in Europe. And, it is a special low molecular weight collagen that is readily absorbed. I see no reason to use anything else while Dr. Friedlander is still making this. There is nothing that comes close to this in absorbability and efficacy. Remember, it is a FOOD, not a drug or a supplement. It feeds your connective tissue, nails, hair and skin, just to name a few. ---

You're welcome. Weston Price was light years ahead of the so-called 'modern day' doctors when it comes to nutrition. Read his book Nutrition and Physical Degeneration. It's a classic!

I have been a vegan since 1999. I bought this in April of this year. It is now November and I just had bloodwork done at my annual physical. My B12 level is VERY HIGH: 1468 pg/ml. The normal range is listed as 211-911 in the lab results. So I would say, this is effective!

This can very greatly but a good approach is to take a protein and creatine supplement. Before, some people will take a Nitric Oxide (NO) product to get blood flow but a simple caffeine product will work fine. I find personally and it has been heavily researched that taking whey protein and creatine monohydrate after works very well. However, after taking the protein and creatine, it is important to take a simple carbohydrate source. This will be immediately used to repair damaged muscle tissue and will help bring the protein and creatine directly into the muscles. As far as during goes, I usually don't take anything but some people will supplement with Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs).

Remember this is not a substitute for good nutrition. Eat a good protein meal three times a day. This is a vitamin/caffeine supplement that gives a little boost but that's about it. Be realistic.

While Orgain does contain 16 grams of protein (and that's a lot), it balances that with carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, even fruits and veggies! So it would not be considered a protein drink, per se. And, while I don't have a bottle of Ensure, on which one could live alone, to compare it with, neither one bottle of Orgain or of Ensure is the equivalent of a full meal. Adults would need about 6 bottles of Ensure for a day's total nutritional intake. And more water than that would also be necessary.

It doesn't say! All it says is serving size is 4 capsules daily=3000mg! I think I read somewhere in reviews that you mite accessThat information on there website! Most of the reviews were About general well being, that it helped in that regard, and of course weightlifting! Being able to get in that extra protein without actually eating that much

you can add any frozen fruit of your choice; fresh banana. To help sustain you longer, a scoop of protein powder helps

That can be answered yes and no. Yes it can if you are modifying your eating habits to being one of healthier choices with this being a protein "supplement", not a meal replacement. No if you use it where you are eating 1 gram of protein per body pound or more DAILY< then it will help increase your total lean body weight mass.This is a incredibly nutritious protein powder, not only is it VEGAN, but also RAW. Can not get any better than that.

Nec....is the main helpful ingredient. If you have cateracts starting as I did ...it may be caused from your body's lack of production of this vital protein. It is the same protein your body uses to offset oxidation...{which causes cateracts}. Can-c has helped...6 mths...it's worth it.

Yes. Well constructed supplement for protein release over several hours. Cookies and cream is a better flavor.

aminoacids are the basic part of the protein, they are helpful to rebuild your muscles
