One of the first lessons children learn is how to read their moms. Without even saying anything, messages are conveyed with just one glance.
It is because of those glances that children who then become adults are unknowingly guided in life, from learning basic manners at home to getting motivated as they face challenges.
This connection also helps sons and daughters know how their parents feel when they look into their eyes.
In its newest digital video, Ensure Gold tells a touching story of how moms can love and care for their child selflessly and how their simple glances could mean so much to their child.
The story also shows how children or caregivers can give back the gift of strength to their aging mothers.
“This is not only so they are able to do everyday activities with ease, but also help them continue doing things that make life meaningful and fulfilling. That way, they have the strength and energy to continue making memories together with their families and friends,” the brand said in a statement.
Ensure Gold cites a research that shows nine out of 10 aging adults are not meeting the daily recommended amounts of key nutrients for a healthy and active life.
Adults aged 40 and above lose 8 percent of muscle mass every decade, and after 70 that rate almost doubles to 15 percent. Muscle loss is invisible to the eye, but it can be noticed through signs and symptoms such as weakness, decelerated walking speed, unintentional weight loss, exhaustion, low physical activity, body pain, and cramps.
Abbott’s new Ensure Gold with HMB (beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyric acid) is now available in the Philippines to help older adults build and maintain their muscle mass and continue doing everyday activities that they love.
The an adult nutrition supplement is scientifically formulated with high quality protein, calcium, vitamin D, and a total of 28 vitamins and minerals to help aging adults stay strong. A unique nutritional ingredient in Ensure Gold is HMB, a metabolite of the essential amino acid leucine.
HMB is naturally found in small amounts in some foods and in the body, but levels may decline with age. HMB has been shown to support muscle health.
“Abbott helps people live their best life by providing nutritional support for Filipinos’ aging loved ones. We believe nutrition is the foundation of good health and are so excited to bring the new Ensure Gold with HMB, through which adults in the Philippines can gain strength to carry on doing the things they love each day, and into their golden years,” said Dr. Jun Dimaano, medical director for Abbott Asia Pacific.
