The endocrinology of sarcopenia and frailty.

CONCLUSIONS: A life-course approach to improving 'health-span' is advocated. Lifestyle factors such as nutrition and physical activity have important interactions with body composition, physical function and metabolic outcomes. Large-scale clinical trials will determine the efficacy and long-term safety of hormone supplementation in the management of sarcopenia and frailty. PMID: 33331737 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
