Power of Protein

Reaching your daily protein intake can help reduce muscle soreness and optimize fat burning. That's right, you can enjoy these pumpkin-flavored treats while still burning fat.

Do you know how much protein you need in a day?

The optimal amount changes slightly with age, so use our tips below to see what is best for your lifestyle.

  • 30 – 40 years old: 1.0 grams of protein per pound of body weight

  • 40 – 50 years old: 1.0 to 1.1 grams of protein per pound of body weight

  • 60+ years old: 1.0 to 1.2 grams of protein per pound of body weight. Growth hormones decrease with age, so it’s important to compensate with additional protein.

DIY Collagen Pumpkin-Spice Latte

That extra dose of protein in your morning cup of coffee will be sure to give you the energy you need to take on the day, all with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top.
