EnergyFirst

Whey isolate, organic greens and a clean pre-workout, made to be judged on the label. Made in the USA since 1997. Nutrition science:

[EnergyFirst @EnergyFirst]

Whey concentrate is about 80% protein. Isolate is filtered to 90% or more.

For the same 20 g of protein, isolate has about a tenth of the fat and a quarter of the lactose. Easier on the stomach.

That is why every EnergyFirst whey is an isolate.

A simple morning that works: a big glass of water, a scoop of Greenergy® in a smoothie, and a whey isolate shake so you start the day with protein. Then get outside and move.

Small habits, done every day, change how you feel.

Of the five essentials in The Energy Guidebook, connection is the one people overlook most. A large body of research links strong social ties with longer, healthier lives.

Gerry's version is simple: a walk every day with his wife and their dogs, Rotary every Monday morning, and church on Sunday. Weekly beats monthly.

Who will you see this week?

The long version: what the big vitamin D trials actually found, why the observational and trial evidence disagree so sharply, and what to do once you have an actual number to work from.

https://t.co/aqNgoMQIMr

[EnergyFirst @EnergyFirst]

Vitamin D is the supplement most often taken on a guess, and one of the few where guessing is genuinely unnecessary.

A blood test is cheap and tells you where you are. Without one you are picking a dose off a marketing label, and shelf doses run 400 IU to 10,000 IU. A factor of twenty-five.

The big randomized trials also came back far less impressive than the observational work that made vitamin D famous.

Test, then decide.

Five essentials for more energy, and where I would start on each one this week. https://t.co/mn8GUnGVBw

[EnergyFirst @EnergyFirst]

Our blog argues against our own marketing in three places, and I signed off on all three.

The anabolic window is retired. Total daily protein is what matters, not the thirty minutes after training.

Grass-fed whey's omega-3 advantage is real and almost irrelevant, because processing removes the fat the case lives in. A few milligrams a scoop. Eat a fish.

And protein does not reliably reduce soreness.

None of that makes the product worse. It makes the claims around it smaller and truer.

Our CEO Gerry Morton's book, The Energy Guidebook, is out today in its fifth edition.

It covers five essentials of sustained health, strength and energy: nutrition, movement, sleep, recovery and connection. Then it gives you a ninety-day plan for putting them in place one at a time. Every claim is cited.

The least-discussed part of GLP-1 medications: rapid weight loss on them is not all fat. A meaningful share is lean mass, and appetite suppression makes hitting a protein target hardest exactly when it matters most.

What the data show, and what to do about it when you do not feel like eating:

A nutrition rule that is quietly backwards for most people over fifty.

The standard 0.8 g per kg of bodyweight is a floor set to prevent deficiency. It was never a target. And aging muscle responds less to the same dose of protein than young muscle, so the requirement goes up with age rather than down.

Practical version: spread it across the day instead of loading dinner, and get a real amount at breakfast, which is where most people get close to none.

ProEnergy, read from the back rather than the front.

One 25 g scoop, 90 calories, five ingredients, 35 servings per 2 lb tub. Vanilla, chocolate, unflavored.

Cold-processed isolate from cows that eat grass their whole lives rather than being grain-finished, which is a distinction the grass-fed label elsewhere often still allows. Stevia leaf, no rBGH.

$61.95, or $54.99 each at four. Free shipping over $50, and you can open it, taste it and send it back inside 30 days.

9,549 verified reviews since 2013, collected by a third party we cannot edit.

The long version on creatine: what the evidence supports, what it does not, how much, which form, and why the loading phase is optional.

Written to be useful whether or not you ever buy anything from us.

Creatine is the most studied supplement in sports nutrition, and the marketing gets one thing wrong almost universally. It is not a timing play.

It works by saturating muscle over weeks. Total daily intake is what matters, not the thirty minutes before training. Three to five grams a day, whenever you will remember it.

Which means the number to look at is your daily total, across everything you take, rather than one serving size read on its own. If something you already use contributes part of it, count that and make up the difference.

Buy creatine monohydrate on its own. Cheap, boring, and about as well studied as a supplement gets.

[EnergyFirst @EnergyFirst]

A fifteen-second test for any protein powder: turn it over and count the ingredients.

Most run fifteen to twenty. Gums, fillers, flavor systems, and often a proprietary blend that hides how much of anything is actually in there.

ProEnergy has five. Cold-processed grass-fed whey isolate, natural flavors, xanthan gum, sunflower lecithin, stevia leaf.

Five is not a magic number. But a long ingredient list is a question worth asking, and most labels are designed to be read from the front.

[EnergyFirst @EnergyFirst]

The 3,500 calories per pound rule dates to 1958. Followed to its conclusion, a small daily deficit takes you to zero in five years.

What actually happens: intake is under-reported by 20 to 50 percent, and non-exercise activity quietly drops.
