Being the mother of teenagers can be at times worse than being the mother of a newborn baby. At least you can leave the baby in the same place and it will stay there, it doesn’t talk back and you can sleep when the baby sleeps. Usually.
Teenagers? Not so much.
They are not only physically demanding, but emotionally demanding as well. Teens keep ridiculously late hours, giving sparkly vampires a run for their money. They eat nonstop, making it seem as if their life’s goal is to consume their weight in food– Daily. As their loving care givers, we are given the ominous task of trying to make sure that all of these needs– the ones that they are dutifully neglecting– are not only being met, but “please finish your homework”, too.
See? Exhausting. And all you did was read about it.
Add into the mix any sort of sport and you have your hands full trying to meet their needs.
Most teens need on average between 9-10 hours of sleep a night. Are they getting that? Usually not. How can they with the amount of extracurricular activities they are involved in along with homework?
Girls and boys differ on the amount of calories they should be eating. According to the Livestrong website “…Boys between 15 and 18 need roughly 2,755 calories daily, and girls in the same age range need roughly 2,110 calories… ” Before exercise.
What does this mean for Teens? The first thing to consider is Provide Gold’s 1 Shot Protein Supplement. It starts working at the cellular level to rebuild muscle and to aid in the muscle recovery process. It comes in a one ounce package and contains 15 grams of protein. The other thing to note is that with Provide Gold it is already predigested with fruit enzymes, so when it enters the body it will be immediately absorbed. Unlike those heavy protein shakes that leave you feeling full and could leave you feeling bloated during your workout.
“Protein molecules are notoriously hard to break-down by the body. There is usually a long time lag between eating protein and its’ eventual absorption and utilization by the body,” said Dr. Joyce Gilbert. “For example, some protein products will not benefit the body for many hours. However, Provide Gold is different in that it benefits the body immediately rebuilding muscles and aiding in recovery.” Provide Gold’s 1 Shot Protein Supplement delivers nearly 100% absorption at the cellular level.
Provide Gold can help in the teenage body’s absorption of all the necessary calories to help aid not only in the recovery process from exercising but in the overall caloric intake of a growing teen body.
What do you do to make sure your teen gets all the necessary calories to be healthy?
"I started taking Provide Gold™ during my sophomore year of high school. It works great! It is the only protein product I will ever take. I dramatically increased all my max’s in bench press, squats and power cling and added 20 pounds of muscle. It made all the difference to my sports career."
