Protein enriched soups
Protein enrichment is a trend that is receiving more and more attention. Much research is being done in various fields into the administration of extra protein and its effect on the body.
People with certain conditions such as COPD have to contend with swallowing problems. For them, the daily intake of food is always a real struggle, as a result of which their nutritional needs are no longer met. This leads to weight loss and, in combination with reduced physical activity, to sarcopenia and loss of muscle function, not only for the leg muscles but also for the respiratory muscles. These people really need protein-rich soups.
But protein enrichment has been around for a long time in the world of sports. Sophisticated diets are formulated to improve athletic performance and faster recovery. There are people who like the high-protein soups to improve their performance.
But one day, all of us will benefit from these high-protein soups. The ageing process of our body is accompanied by loss of muscle mass and muscle strength (sarcopenia). This process, in turn, leads to reduced mobility, falls and fractures, which greatly reduce the quality of life.
