The Importance of Dietary Protein and Resistance Training
Dietary protein is an essential nutrient that the body needs, and the current recommended intake may not be sufficient. Increasing protein intake, especially for women over 65 who often consume inadequate amounts, can have positive effects on body composition and overall health. Resistance training is crucial for building and maintaining lean muscle mass, which is vital for longevity and preventing age-related issues such as falls and frailty.
