Progress in the application of nutritional combined with resistance training in aged patients with sarcopenia
Sarcopenia is a potential risk factor for adverse events such as falls,disability and disability in the elderly,posing a se-rious challenge to the health care of the aging population.How to early intervene and manage and reduce the occurrence of adverse health outcomes is the intersection of geriatric healthcare.Sarcopenia is closely related to exercise and nutritional status.The com-bined intervention model of nutrition and resistance training has the potential to become the most valuable intervention strategy for the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia.This article reviews the concept,assessment tools and mechanism of sarcopenia,as well as the research status of nutrition combined with resistance training in sarcopenia in the elderly,focusing on the diversified effects of this method in different populations such as community healthy elderly,sarcopenia and obese sarcopenia.It is found that the combination of protein and other nutrients and resistance training such as elastic band can not only improve the body composition of individuals,but also have a positive effect on their balance,cognition,disease prognosis and other aspects.However,the best way and frequency of combined intervention have not yet formed a unified standard,and it is necessary to further build a scientific and standardized com-bined intervention system in the future.
