Nutrition Guide
Ensuring that your children eat a balanced diet is an important part of their growth and development.
One essential dietary component is protein, and you might be wondering if your child is getting enough.
Protein requirements depend on a child’s age and weight. The ICMR and Health and Human Services (HHS) published updated Dietary Guidelines for 2020, in which they recommended following daily protein intake for children.
Contents and their uses :
Whey Protein
Whey is derived from milk and is the best vegetarian source of protein. It is also easy to digest, has the highest protein efficiency after eggs (PDCAAS = 1), and the highest biological value containing all essential and non-essential amino acids.
A typical serving of milk contains less than 20% whey, which is insufficient for daily requirements. Our whey protein for kids is pure and sourced in the United States. Protein is a necessary nutrient during the growth years because it is the building block of muscles. The human body is approximately 45% protein.
Our bodies would be unable to repair, regulate, or protect themselves if the protein were not present.
Proteinaceous enzymes and hormones are found in our bodies. Protein also maintains healthy nails, hair, and skin by regulating water balance, nutrient transport, and muscle contractions. The average Indian diet (especially vegetarian diets) is high in carbohydrates and low in protein.
Electrolytes
During and after sports, the body loses a lot of fluids mostly in the form of sweat.
This makes the body dehydrated which can lead to muscle cramping or fatigue.
Electrolytes like Sodium, Potassium and Magnesium help in rehydration so that after sports recovery is quicker and more efficient.
