Exercise is an important component of any weight management program. Help repair your muscles after exercise with a high quality, complete protein.
During exercise, muscle tissue is broken down. It’s built back stronger with rest and amino acids from protein. Whey and casein are complete proteins, meaning they contain all of the essential amino acids for muscle recovery.
Your body requires comparatively more of the macronutrients protein, carbohydrates and fats compared to micronutrients like vitamins and minerals. That doesn’t make micronutrients any less important.
