Frailty you've heard of. Thin old people who have trouble getting around. Gerontologists know that they have lost a lot of muscle -- or muscle mass -- over the years. Muscle experts have begun calling this condition Sarcopenia. If you lose a lot of your
muscle, you become weak. But the experts can't agree on what causes Sarcopenia or how to treat it. Now they're beginning to doubt that Sarcopenia is the cause of the weakness. A new term, dynapenia, might explain that. Muscle weakness in seniors without
Sarcopenia must be caused by dynapenia. Dynapenia may be caused by neuropathy.
I can't wait for the experts. I'll have to soldier on without them. -- BowTie
