Here, Dr Anne Holdoway, malnutrition pathway clinical director and consultant dietitian, looks at a recently launched online resource, ‘A Guide to Managing Frailty, Sarcopenia and Malnutrition’, to help healthcare professionals in managing the overlapping syndromes of frailty, sarcopenia and malnutrition, which are often wrongly considered to be an inevitable part of ageing. This new resource outlines considerations for protein consumption while also highlighting the importance of exercise to enhance muscle synthesis and strength. In addition, other areas of consideration include vitamin D supplementation, hydration, medicines management, social support, cognitive function, comorbidity optimisation, and falls and fragility fracture prevention.
