Sarcopenia can improve, but along with protein he may also need proper muscle strengthening exercises, nutrition correction and evaluation for other causes of weight loss 👍 Book a consultation with me once  I’ll guide you step by step on investigations, diet and treatment options for healthy weight and muscle gain.
