Increased walking improved muscle protein synthesis rates in older women irrespective of whether dietary protein intake was increased beyond the recommended intake of 0.8 g/kg/d. Great study @tjstokes5 @mackinprof and excellent stats section! academic.oup.com/jn/article-abs…

Delirium can be reduced in older adults by enhancing the ward culture around the fundamental principles of age-friendly care including nutrition, mobility and cognitive engagement. Fantastic intervention from @AlisonMudge and @EatWalkEngage gang 🙌 tinyurl.com/4h375a6h

We can prevent delirium! Results from our 4-site trial of Eat Walk Engage published today. And we’ve scaled up to 17 hospitals around Queensland —great natural experiment as we keep improving our program. 🙏 team @EatWalkEngage @sharon_inouye @aidybarnett @dr_am_young @GillHar26

In this randomized clinical trial, a hospital ward-based improvement program did not result in a reduction in most hospital-associated complications in older adults, although there was a significant reduction in delirium. ja.ma/3Fcd2lE

TILDA research shows that 10% of older people are at risk of malnutrition. This is often associated with poorer health, a lower quality of life & worse disease outcomes. Learn why eating protein-rich foods is important as we age. irishtimes.com/life-and-style…

Worrying @Ageing_Better research: growing inequality for older people; more & deeper poverty. Much higher poverty & lower wealth among minoritised ethnic communities. We can be proud of big falls in pensioner poverty in recent decades, now risk unravelling ageing-better.org.uk/news/youngest-…
