Physical activity, strength training in particular, improves whole body protein balance (WBPB) in older individuals ( Timmerman et al., 2012 ; Walker et al., 2011 ). Of significance to this investigation is the potential of yoga as an alternative exercise option for the

Exercise and Protein Supplementation Recommendations for Older Adults With Sarcopenic Obesity: A Meta-Review

appropriate measures to define obesity in older adults ( Roh & Choi, 2020 ). The reliance on two varied and independent definitions for sarcopenia and obesity leads to considerable inconsistencies in the reported prevalence of this disease ( Batsis & Villareal, 2018 ). Energy status and trends in protein
Protein Supplementation for Strength and Functionality in Older Adults: Is There Still Any Doubt? A Brief Update Review

, with special attention to protein intake. It has been previously suggested that impairments in protein digestion and amino acid absorption, insulin-mediated muscle tissue perfusion, amino acid uptake in muscle, or a reduced phosphorylation of key signaling proteins may contribute to the phenomenon

Commonly employed measures include C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), which respond acutely to infection or trauma but can also reflect subclinical pro-inflammatory activity. In addition, in clinical settings, interferon gamma

Within these conditions, a balanced diet must provide enough energy (from macronutrients: carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) to allow physical exercise while avoiding maladaptation

While systemic biomarker levels cannot pinpoint the specific location of inflammation, elevated hs-CRP is a reliable predictor of cardiovascular events ( Rost et al., 2001 ) and is an established risk
