  1. If your looking for a quality food source that will allow you to preserve muscle mass and allow you to grow and recover while your sleeping, casein protein would be highly recommended. This type of protein is slow digesting and will allow your muscles to receive a slow, but quality source of protein while you sleep. It can be found in all dairy products, but i would recommend milk, becasue of its effeciency and cheapness. Milk also has a good amount of carbs as a nutrient and even though it says on the packaging that the carbs are sugar, it is in fact actually a slower digesting carb than oatmeal, called lactose. Therefore by counting the factors even though your body is still matabolising, but at a slower rate, you are supplying your muscle with the nutrients it needs to recover and grow. Also i would recommend a good fat source such as flaxseed or almonds.

  2. How does this program work for people 40 and over. Is it true that when you reach a certain age it is more difficult to build muscle.
