Results indicate that physical exercise has a positive impact on muscle mass and muscle function in subjects aged 65 years and older .
Conclusion Physical exercise has a positive impact on muscle mass and muscle function in healthy subjects aged 60 years and older .
The biggest effect of exercise intervention , of any type , has been seen on physical performance ( gait speed , chair rising test , balance , SPPB test , etc . )
.
We observed huge variations in regard to the dietary supplementation protocol s. Based on the included studies , mainly performed on well-nourished subjects , the interactive effect of dietary supplementation on muscle function appears limited
Summary This systematic review summarizes the effect of combined exercise and nutrition intervention on muscle mass and muscle function .
However , any interactive effect of dietary supplementation appears to be limited .
Introduction In 2013 , Denison et al. conducted a systematic review including 17 r and omized controlled trials ( RCTs ) to explore the effect of combined exercise and nutrition intervention to improve muscle mass , muscle strength , or physical performance in older people .
They concluded that further studies were needed to provide evidence upon which public health and clinical recommendations could be based .
The purpose of the present work was to up date the prior systematic review and include studies published up to October 2015 .
Effects of Exercise and Milk Fat Globule Membrane (MFGM) Supplementation on Body Composition, Physical Function, and Hematological Parameters in Community-Dwelling Frail Japanese Women: A Randomized Double Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Follow-Up Trial
Objective To investigate the combined and separate effects of exercise and milk fat globule membrane ( MFGM ) supplementation on frailty , physical function , physical activity level , and hematological parameters in community-dwelling elderly Japanese women . Methods A total of 131 frail , elderly women over 75 years were r and omly assigned to one of four groups : exercise and MFGM supplementation ( Ex+MFGM ) , exercise and placebo ( Ex+Plac ) , MFGM supplementation , or the placebo group . The exercise group attended a 60-minute training program twice a week for three months , and the MFGM group ingested 1 g of the MFGM supplement in pill form , daily for 3 months . The primary outcome measure was change in frailty status based on Fried ’s frailty phenotype . Secondary outcome measures included body composition , physical function and hematological parameters , and interview survey components assessing lifestyle factors . Participants were followed for 4 months post-intervention . Results Significant group × time interactions were observed for usual walking speed ( P = 0.005 ) , timed up & go ( P<0.001 ) , and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 / insulin-like growth factor 1 ratio ( P = 0.013 ) . The frailty components revealed that weight loss , exhaustion , low physical activity , and slow walking speed were reversed , but low muscle strength did not significantly changed . Frailty reversal rate was significantly higher in the Ex+MFGM ( 57.6 % ) than in the MFGM ( 28.1 % ) or placebo ( 30.3 % ) groups at post-intervention ( χ2 = 8.827 , P = 0.032 ) , and at the follow-up was also significantly greater in the Ex+MFGM ( 45.5 % ) and Ex+Plac ( 39.4 % ) groups compared with the placebo ( 15.2 % ) group ( χ2 = 8.607 , P = 0.035 ) . The exercise+MFGM group had the highest odds ratio ( OR ) for frailty reversal at post-intervention and follow-up ( OR = 3.12 , 95 % confidence interval ( CI ) = 1.13–8.60 ; and OR = 4.67 , 95 % CI = 1.45–15.08 , respectively ) . Conclusion This study suggests that interventions including exercise and nutrition can improve frailty status . Statistically significant additive effects of MFGM with exercise could not be confirmed in this population , and further investigation in larger sample s is necessary .
