Sarcopenia, Malnutrition and Therapy

"We need a new definition of malnutrition. Malnutrition means under- and over-nutrition. Malnutrition means emaciated and obese." — Catherine Bertini


Sarcopenia, characterized by the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength, often coexists with malnutrition, especially in older adults. This combination can lead to increased frailty, diminished physical function, and a higher risk of adverse health outcomes. Addressing both conditions through comprehensive therapeutic strategies is essential to enhance overall health and quality of life.​

Addressing sarcopenia and malnutrition requires a multifaceted approach that combines targeted nutritional strategies with tailored exercise regimens. Early intervention and personalized care plans are vital to mitigate the impacts of these conditions and promote healthier aging
