Effect of Exercise and Nutrition Intervention for Older Adults with Impaired Physical Function with Preserved Muscle Mass (Functional Sarcopenia): A Randomized Controlled Trial
The 12-week exercise and nutritional intervention significantly enhanced physical performance, grip strength, and quality of life among community-dwelling older adults with functional sarcopenia. This suggests that strategies commonly recommended for sarcopenia, including exercise and nutritional support, are also beneficial for individuals with functional sarcopenia, indicating the potential for broader application of such interventions.
