The lack of protein in Lankan diet is the single most nutritional deficiency that has stunted not only our children’s physical growth and their ability to maximize their genetic potential but also has undermined the development of sporting talent for decades, resulting in mediocre performances, says Talavou Alailima, a renowned personality in the fitness industry of Sri Lanka.
Alailima who is currently the Managing Director of Edge Nutrition and founder of Power World Gyms says that numerous studies and experts have concluded that whey protein has proven to be the best source of protein, with the highest absorption rate. It provides the necessary nutrients to build muscle, significantly helps build the immune system, and enhances cellular responses.
The access to whey protein in Sri Lanka is challenging especially when it comes to the cost of it. Breaking this barrier, Talavou’s Nutrition Edge recently relaunched a product called MUSCLE EDGE, consisting of over 70 percent of muscle-transforming protein per serving. And this comes at a significantly affordable price tag, and one could purchase it by simply logging into www.edgenutrition.life.
This is ideal for those engaging in weight-based activities to increase their strength and muscle size and those in sports, high-performance training, and fitness. When consuming MUSCLE EDGE consistently, together with the right intensity of exercise, you will continuously build muscle.
“MUSCLE EDGE is formulated to create champions and ensure each serving is potent. The whey protein is made in the USA, making MUSCLE EDGE second to none worldwide. At a time when most cannot afford Whey Protein supplementation, we decided to relaunch MUSCLE EDGE as an affordable product with world-class whey protein to benefit our committed sportsmen and those determined to be fit and lead a healthy lifestyle.” says Talavou Alailima.
