At present, many elderly people have muscle atrophy. In fact, this situation can be said to be universal. Generally, after we reach the age of 50, the muscles of our bodies will begin to lose slowly, and with the growth of age, the speed of muscle loss will accelerate. This will cause long-term muscle loss in the elderly; Most elderly people are troubled by diseases, and muscle loss is the most common. When the elderly reach the age of 60, 30% of their muscles have been lost. By the age of 80, the muscle loss has reached more than half, so everyone must pay attention to their muscles after the age of 50.

If you want to reduce muscle loss, only through your own efforts can you reduce this situation. First of all, we can help the elderly reduce muscle loss by supplementing vitamins. Usually, the elderly can eat more egg yolk or some seafood, which is very rich in vitamins; Besides these ordinary old people, you can also eat more fruits. We all know that fruits are also rich in vitamins, but it is best for the elderly to master the degree of these foods, otherwise eating too much will be counterproductive, such as bananas and apples, which are very suitable for the elderly.

Besides these, the elderly can also drink a cup of pure milk or a cup of soybean milk every morning and evening. These two foods also contain a lot of vitamins and a lot of calcium. You can also eat some darker food. Dark fruits or vegetables have antioxidant effects, including some dietary fiber. These substances can effectively prevent muscle loss. Many old people have a bad appetite, and some old people have lost their teeth, so it will be difficult to eat. At this time, the food we mentioned above can be replaced by protein powder, because it also contains many substances such as protein; There is another way to easily reduce muscle loss. Generally, the elderly are too old to walk, so they seldom choose to go out. After a long time, not getting enough sunlight will also cause muscle loss in the elderly. Therefore, elderly people with this situation can go out to bask in the sun more.

Finally, the way to reduce muscle loss requires the endurance and persistence of the old people. Now many old people choose aerobic exercise. In fact, the elderly can do more anaerobic exercise. Usually you can do aerobic exercise, but anaerobic exercise needs to be done twice a week. There are many kinds of anaerobic exercise. Old people can choose to lift dumbbells for exercise. At first, they don't have to hold on for too long until they can get used to the weight of dumbbells and hold on for half an hour at a time. This is because everyone's bones and muscles are directly related. To reduce the incidence of sarcopenia, you need more exercise, and so do young people.
