- Nutritional Recommendations for the Management of Sarcopenia (2010, positive): “In the Health, Aging, and Body Composition Study persons in the highest quintile of protein intake lost nearly 40% less appendicular lean mass than did those in the lowest quintile.(32) Other studies have also found a positive association between protein ingestion and muscle mass.”
- Skeletal muscle performance and ageing (2017, positive): “218 This suggests that not only institutionalized/hospitalized elderly but also community-dwelling and frail elderly people may need to increase their dietary protein intake in order to prevent the loss of muscle mass loss and, as such, skeletal muscle performance.”
