Dietary patterns, skeletal muscle health and sarcopenia in older adults

TL;DR: The importance of diet and dietary patterns (DPs) for skeletal muscle health has been gaining attention in ageing and nutritional research as mentioned in this paper, and two main approaches have been employed to study the role of diet/DPs as a modifiable lifestyle factor in sarcopenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low Protein Intake Is Associated with Frailty in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that a high consumption of dietary protein is inversely associated with frailty in older adults.
Journal ArticleDOI

Muscle and Bone Health in Postmenopausal Women: Role of Protein and Vitamin D Supplementation Combined with Exercise Training

TL;DR: This review will examine the rationale and the effects of dietary protein, vitamin D and calcium supplementation combined with a specifically-designed exercise training prescription as a strategy to counteract these postmenopausal-associated disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nutrition and Muscle Strength, As the Key Component of Sarcopenia: An Overview of Current Evidence

TL;DR: Focusing on muscle strength as the key component of sarcopenia, the aim of this overview was to evaluate its links to nutrition, both to variation in habitual diets in older populations, as well as considering supplementation effects in trials.
