Seeing our elder loved ones, our moms and dads, reach their prime age, is a great reason to be joyful. But what will give us happiness, and more to our parents, is if they will be able to continue doing the things they love despite their age. We want to see them dance, play sports, and travel as much as their hearts desire it. We will give everything just to make it possible.
Part of our Filipino culture is utang na loob but it’s not only that we want to show how grateful we are of the care they provided us, but we also care for them sincerely that we want to #EnsureTheirStrength for a long time.
Yes, it is possible, for our elder loved ones to regain their strength and do the things that can make them happy. That’s what Dr. Jun Dimaano, medical director for Abbott Nutrition Asia Pacific, assured us in his short speech at the media launch of Ensure Gold with HMB.

Ensure Gold with HMB
What is HMB?
In Dr. Dimaano’s presentation, he let the members of the press and the rest of the audience that day know first what happens when a person ages. Part of aging, usually after age 40, is loss of muscle and muscle degeneration can mean loss of strength and energy to do what an individual can usually do in the past. According to Dr. Dimaano also, there are two ways how one can improve the muscles in the body: that is through exercise (strength training) and through proper nutrition.
HMB (beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyric acid) is the type of nutrient that the body needs to maintain muscle mass. We can get HMB from some of the foods that we eat such as avocados and fish, but to be able to get enough amount of HMB, we need to eat a lot of these specific types of food. Example, to get 1.5 grams of HMB, one needs to consume 3,000 avocados or 750 catfish fillets. This is indeed very impractical and satiating.

The new Ensure Gold®, launched by Abbott Nutrition, is an adult nutrition supplement, scientifically formulated with high quality protein, calcium, vitamin D and 28 vitamins and minerals to help build muscle mass and help adults stay strong. A unique nutritional ingredient in Ensure Gold® is HMB, a metabolite of the essential amino acid leucine.
With 2 glasses of Ensure Gold with HMB (6 scoops each), adults can get 1.5 grams of HMB which can be enough to gain muscle mass, thus enhancing one’s energy or strength to do more physical activities.
Dr. Dimaano cited more benefits of drinking Ensure Gold with HMB: 1. improves wound healing 2. improves muscle density
3. improves leg strength and so many more.

“Age should not stop our loved ones from enjoying life. My dad wants to keep an active lifestyle so he can bond with our family and I try to give him the emotional and nutritional support that he needs – that’s my gift of strength to him,” said Dingdong Dantes. Geleen Eugenio, on the other hand, have improved strength that allows her to continue to dance and stay active even at her age, thanks to Ensure Gold with HMB.
As parents, we feel how important it is to feel loved and cared for by our children. That’s what we always want to make our parents and elder adults in our family to feel. Not only that we want to show how grateful we are of the care they provided us, but we also care for them sincerely that we want to #EnsureTheirStrength for a long time. Abbott has been generous to help us in our efforts to help the elders regain their strength that they’ve launched Ensure Gold with a new nutritional inclusion, HMB, with no additional cost.

Very nice and healthy product. It’s just bad I can’t get one in my country for my grandparents. Thanks for sharing.
It is good that this brand is conscious of good quality of life for those that find it difficult to stay healthy and nourished.
Wow..Nice blog i need to give this for my parents also.Thanks for sharing.
This sounds like a great supplement for my parents! I’ll show them:)
Such an important message of courage and encouragement. Awesome job, Mama!
Thanks for reminding.. I am planning to buy Ensure for my parents since they are not getting any younger.. ☺
Wow! I really appreciate you sharing this. I mean it is important to keep oneself updated about the things they need as they age. We are not going to stay young forever! Thanks for sharing!
First time I’m hearing about this product. Will definitely check it out.
My parents live very active and healthy lives! They hike every day for 2 to 3 hours at a go and eat non-processed foods! They’re great role models in this area (as well as others) and I am proud to call them my parents! They certainly get all the nutrients they need through the healthy foods they eat!
So interesting, I appreciate you sharing this with all of us. Thanks friend!
YES! I’ve heard wonderful things about this product.
yeah heard lot about this before but haven’t tried ever…well great work though..glad you shared it..
This is interesting. I have never heard of Endure Gold. It is also good to know that elders can gain their strength back, and what it takes to do so. Thank you for sharing this! 🍕👓🚢
My aunt would love it. I wish it would be available in India.
When my father was ill and couldn’t keep any solid food down, he loved Ensure. Especially chocolate and strawberry flavors because it did not make him feel sick.
Sounds good! Iam hearing about this for the fist time. But I like it.
