Broccoli-based diet guards seniors from muscle loss
A Chinese study published in the journal Nutrients has concluded that combining compounds derived from broccoli with an amino acid known as "leucine" helps slow down muscle mass loss associated with aging, especially in cases of sarcopenia. Experiments showed that this combination preserves muscle mass, enhances grip strength, and improves exercise performance, while also activating genes that support muscle growth and repair as well as reduce inflammation. It is believed that this mixture could form the basis for new nutritional strategies to prevent muscle deterioration with age.
