Protein intake during energy restriction may preserve lean body mass (LBM). The amount, timing and source of protein may be important. No formal protein guidelines exist in older adults attempting weight loss. We evaluated the types of protein used in weight-loss interventions. METHODS. With a ...
To investigate the impact of increasing dietary protein intake on lean body mass, strength and physical performance during 12 weeks of energy intake restriction in overweight older adults. Design: Sixty-one overweight and obese men and women (63±5 years) were randomly assigned to either a high ...
older adults. Although studies examining the direct link between oral health and protein intake in older adults are limited, some have explored the relationship via malnutrition, which is also prevalent among older adults. Protein–energy malnutrition (PEM) may be associated with poor oral health, ...
Protein and aging: the protein needs of older adults are greater than previously realized. Adequate protein intake protects muscle mass, helping to ensure good health and quality of life in seniors. Conditions such as calorie intake, wounds, weight loss and infection can adversely affect protein ...
Our objective was to investigate whether protein intake from animal and plant sources on a daily and per-meal basis differs between healthy older adults with normal and with low muscle mass.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study including 100 healthy, community-dwelling adults (51 women) aged 75–...
Daily protein intake was estimated for 12 food items listed in a food frequency questionnaire. Results Three-thousand four-hundred twenty-four older adults (mean age: 72.7 ± 5.7 years; 55% women) were included in the study. Results of linear regression analysis indicated that protein intake ...
same publications [19,21] expressed as the increase in myofibrillar protein synthesis after resistance exercise from a protein-free control against the body weight-normalized whey protein intake. Shaded area highlights the relative anabolic resistance of the untrained older adults.FSRfractional synthesis ...
PROT-AGE recommendations for dietary protein intake in healthy older adults • To maintain and regain muscle, older people need more dietary protein than do younger people; older people should consume an average daily intake in the range of 1.0 to 1.2 g/kg BW/d. • The per-meal anabolic...
Adequate protein consumption in amount, food sources, and meals is important to maintain muscle mass and reduce the risk of sarcopenia in older adults. Thi
Furthermore, considering age-associated anabolic resistance to dietary protein, higher protein intake should be emphasized in older adults than in younger people. To develop a dietary protein recommendation for older adults in Korea, we reviewed the relevant literature, including interventional studies ...
