Surgery represents a major stressor that disrupts homeostasis and can lead to loss of body
cell mass. Integrated, multidisciplinary medical strategies, including enhanced recovery …

On the basis of recent work, we propose a novel and specific dietary approach to prevent or
slow down muscle loss with ageing. Rather than recommending a large, global increase in …

Aging is associated with a progressive decline in skeletal muscle mass and strength. The
decline, known as sarcopenia, could lead to physical disability, poor quality of life, and …

Regardless of age or gender, resistance training or provision of adequate amounts of dietary
protein (PRO) or essential amino acids (EAA) can increase muscle protein synthesis (MPS) …

Recent research has revealed causes other than aging that may induce sarcopenia in
young people, contrary to the long-studied age-dependent reduction in muscular mass and …

Frailty is a geriatric syndrome that predicts disability, morbidity and mortality in the elderly.
Poor nutritional status is one of the main risk factors for frailty. Macronutrients and …

Human skeletal muscle satellite cells are activated in response to both resistance and
endurance exercise. It was initially proposed that satellite cell proliferation and differentiation …

Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass and strength, is a fundamental cause of
frailty, functional decline and disability. In the year 2000, $18.5 billion in health care costs …

Background A previous comprehensive prehabilitation program, providing nutrition
counseling with whey protein supplementation, exercise, and psychological care, initiated 4 …

The effects of timed ingestion of high-quality protein before and after resistance exercise are
not well known. In this study, young men were randomized to protein (n= 11), placebo (n …
