Aim To evaluate protein and amino acid intakes and distribution among Japanese people in
terms of prevention of sarcopenia or frailty. Methods We carried out a cross‐sectional study …

Objectives To determine whether protein intake is associated with better disability
trajectories in the oldest adults (≥ 85) and whether muscle mass and muscle strength would …

Protein intakes in the older population can be lower than recommended for good health, and
while reasons for low protein intakes can be provided, little work has attempted to …

Background Our ability to understand population-level dietary intake patterns is dependent
on having access to high quality data. Diet surveys are common diet assessment methods …
