Happy to share our new review article on Exercise, Nutrition and GLP-1 medicines in Patients with HFpEF:

Fun collaboration with @KostasProko @WoDoehner Kristina Norman, Aniket Joshi, Søren Gam and Ursula Mueller-Werdan.

May promote doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline. The review is great for yeast, fruit flies, worms and mice. It's time to say so plainly: There is no consistent data in humans that supports this notion!

In this one, multimorbidity and greater cumulative long-term condition burden burden were prospectively associated with incident sarcopenia.

💊Creatine + resistance training appears to provide small additional gains in strength and lean mass versus resistance training alone.
Effects on body fat are minimal. Useful, not magical—and the training still does the heavy lifting. 💪

A few wonderful days in the beautiful city of Lille for #EuGMS2026, meeting many friends and discussing some emerging topics in the field of sarcopenia and geriatrics.
Next stop -> Florence ;-)

This review examines the available evidence on changes in dietary protein intake during incretin-based therapy and their implications for muscle mass and functional preservation in older adults.

#Osteosarcopenia was associated with a multi-pathway serum #metabolic signature that differed from #osteoporosis alone. As in other multiple studies, finding a #sarcopenia-only group (without concomitant osteoporosis or osteopenia) was challenging: frontiersin.org/journals/end…

💉 GLP-1 therapies reduce appetite—but may also reduce absolute protein intake.
Whether this contributes to muscle loss remains uncertain.
🥚 Prioritize protein + resistance training, especially in older adults.

How does treatment with GLP-1 and GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists affect protein intake during substantial weight loss? Our new review on protein intake and the potential implications for muscle health and secondary sarcopenia is now published in Advances in Therapy 💪
