Sarcopenia Mitigation Strategies

Meaning

Sarcopenia Mitigation Strategies are comprehensive clinical and lifestyle interventions specifically designed to prevent, slow, or reverse the progressive, age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function. These strategies address the multifactorial etiology of sarcopenia, which includes hormonal decline, chronic inflammation, decreased physical activity, and nutritional insufficiency. Successful mitigation is paramount for maintaining physical independence, metabolic health, and reducing the risk of falls and fractures in the aging population. It is a core pillar of longevity medicine.
