Purpose Of Review: The increased age observed in most countries, with the associated higher rates of chronic illnesses and cancer, and a diffuse sedentary lifestyle, will increase the number of patients with clinically relevant anabolic resistance, sarcopenia and its complications. The need for solutions to this major health issue is, therefore, pressing.
Recent Findings: The metabolic derangements and other consequences associated with sarcopenia can be slowed or even prevented by specific nutritional interventions.
