UltraMeal Advanced Protein by Metagenics provides support for the nutritional management of patients with sarcopenia muscle loss. This advanced formula provides essential amino acids, including added leucine, to support the healthy aging of skeletal muscle and to help address sarcopenia, the age-associated loss of skeletal muscle mass. Each serving provides 20 g of protein and amino acids, including 10 g of essential amino acids of which 5 g are branched-chain amino acids. Combined with appropriate resistance exercise, supplementation with essential amino acids and especially of branched-chain amino acids may help improve skeletal muscle mass. Using the UltraMeal Advanced Protein supplement can also help prevent sarcopenia from getting worse.
Half of the protein intake provided by UltraMeal Advanced Protein consists of essential amino acids for better support of muscle protein synthesis. Compared to more common dietary proteins, essential amino acids (and especially branched-chain amino acids) appear to be more rapidly absorbed and better utilized by skeletal muscle for the synthesis of new muscle tissue and muscle mass.
UltraMeal Advanced Protein used for sarcopenia treatment also features cocoa polyphenols to help maintain endothelium-dependent vasodilation, which contributes to healthy blood flow. Cocoa polyphenols provide nutritional benefits including nitric oxide synthesis in blood vessels, which supports healthy vascular function and muscle retention.
Additionally, the UltraMeal Advanced Protein sarcopenia supplement contains additional nutritional benefits including 25 essential vitamins and minerals to support protein synthesis and healthy metabolic function and includes 4 g of prebiotic fiber.

Great!

Overall Rating I have been taking this for a few years and it is a great way for me (a vegetarian) to get additional protein. I've never been one for the taste of protein powders, but I normally mix this in a blender with milk and a banana and it tastes pretty good.
