Experts call for muscle health in clinical nutrition

Original: Why muscle health should be a bigger part of clinical nutrition

Researchers at Texas A&M are arguing that muscle health deserves a far larger role in clinical nutrition practice. Writing in Medical Xpress, they say muscle mass and function are often overlooked when assessing patients' nutritional needs, despite their impact on recovery, ageing and disease outcomes. The argument is likely to resonate with clinicians and dietitians reviewing how nutritional care is assessed and delivered.

Why now: New expert commentary from Texas A&M is prompting discussion about how clinical nutrition addresses muscle health.
