06 Nov 2018 --- As populations are living longer, more attention should be paid toward dietary elements that can contribute to the sustenance of a good quality of life. Published in the Journal of American Geriatrics, a study has found that participants over the age of 85 who ate relatively high levels of protein were less likely to become disabled. The researchers note that it is essential that food and nutritional products address the needs of older adults, but emphasize the importance of evidence-based information so as not to mislead them.
