WHAT THE RESEARCH SAYS
ALL 33 ON PUBMED ↗Cards marked "FROM INGREDIENT LIST" below are separate PubMed searches on Corepower Protein Shake for Strength's individual key ingredients, not the product itself — PubMed rarely indexes research on a specific commercial product by name.
Milk Protein — Milk protein supplementation supports muscle gains and strength when combined with resistance training in older adults.
Leucine — Leucine is important for muscle building, but taking it alone as a supplement doesn't clearly add extra benefits beyond adequate total protein intake.
Whey protein plus resistance training improved strength in older adults with muscle loss.
Whey protein alone without exercise showed no reliable effect on strength or muscle mass.
Young people gained similar muscle strength with whey protein or soy protein during weight training.
Whey protein with vitamin D showed modest improvements in muscle function in sarcopenic older adults.
