Description
Nathan Berger and co-authors opened a journal collection in 2023 on the wasting of muscle with age, and on its tangled form where fat invades the muscle. Once defined by mass alone, the condition now covers lost strength and fatty, weakened tissue, and it stalks hospitals and nursing homes.
The editorial reports that the wasting touches up to a quarter of people over sixty-five and three fifths of those over eighty, and half of cancer patients. It feeds falls, fractures, and early death, and it complicates treating other diseases. Causes span poor diet, inactivity, hormones, and gut changes. Nutrition sits at the center of the collection's studies, as both cause and cure.
