How does the plant-based protein in this product support health?

Aging adults may benefit from dietary protein intake at 1.0 to 1.5 grams per kilogram per day,^1,2,3 which is above the recommended daily allowance (RDA), in order to preserve lean muscle mass and support muscle-building response to exercise.¹ The International Society of Sports Nutrition recommends that athletes may benefit from consuming 1.2 to 2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight to support metabolic processes and repair.⁴ Athletes and those with glucose⁵ and weight-management⁶ challenges may benefit from protein supplementation. Protein also plays an important role in cellular function and enzyme action while also supporting hair, skin, and nails.*
