Journal ArticleDOI

Nutrient-rich dairy proteins improve appendicular skeletal muscle mass and physical performance, and attenuate the loss of muscle strength in older men and women subjects: a single-blind randomized clinical trial

TL;DR: It is suggested that adding ricotta cheese to the habitual diet is a promising dietetic strategy that may improve the markers of sarcopenia in subjects without a pronounced loss of ASMM or sarc Openia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physiological effects beyond the significant gain in muscle mass in sarcopenic elderly men: evidence from a randomized clinical trial using a protein-rich food.

TL;DR: The results of this study indicate that a nutritional intervention using a high-quality protein food, specifically ricotta cheese, in order to increase the amount of protein intake might not be regarded as fully promising in elderly men and women with sarcopenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insufficient amounts and inadequate distribution of dietary protein intake in apparently healthy older adults in a developing country: implications for dietary strategies to prevent sarcopenia.

TL;DR: While protein intake was higher than current recommendations, it failed to achieve the values reported as necessary to prevent sarcopenia, and there was under-consumption of protein per mealtime, especially at breakfast and dinner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Body composition prediction equations based on deuterium oxide dilution method in Mexican children: a national study.

TL;DR: Two equations for evaluating body composition in Mexican indigenous and non-indigenous children and youth from three main regions of the country provided reliable estimates and will promote a better understanding of both obesity and undernutrition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association Between Insulin Resistance and Low Relative Appendicular Skeletal Muscle Mass: Evidence From a Cohort Study in Community-Dwelling Older Men and Women Participants

TL;DR: Insulin resistance was associated with low relative ASM at 4.6-year follow-up after accounting for several covariates in a cohort of apparently healthy, well-functioning young older men and women.
