Strong pick
After 50, the body resists building muscle (anabolic resistance). Hitting 1.0–1.4g per kg with leucine-rich, easy-to-chew sources keeps strength and bone density.

Why it works for seniors (50+)
For seniors, look for soft texture, complete amino acids, high leucine — dairy, eggs, fish, tender meats. Chicken thigh (cooked, no skin) checks those boxes — juicier and cheaper than breast — slightly more fat.
