Sarcopenic declines in muscle mass and function contribute to the risk of falls, reduced
mobility, and progression to frailty in older persons. Mitigation of sarcopenia can be …

Aim The constituents of weight loss following bariatric surgery are poorly known. There is an
expectation of a limited loss of lean body mass (LBM), and a significant loss of fat mass (FM) …

The decrease in resting energy expenditure (REE) and fat oxidation with aging is associated
with an increase in fat mass (FM), and both could be prevented by exercise such as …
