Alternative protein sources and healthy skeletal muscle aging: A narrative review
Age-related anabolic resistance may render conventional dietary protein recommendations insufficient for the elderly population. Increased intake of high-quality protein is required to stimulate skeletal muscle protein synthesis, maintain muscle health, and prevent sarcopenia. Concurrently, global population growth, accelerated aging, and rising consumption of animal-based proteins (ABP) necessitate the urgent development of sustainable protein alternatives. This review examines various alternative protein sources (APS), including plant-based proteins (PBP), insect-based proteins (IBP), mycoprotein, and cultured meat, to support muscle health during aging. Furthermore, this research aligns with China's dual carbon goals (carbon peak and neutrality), promoting sustainable and low-carbon development. Consequently, identifying sustainable APS is crucial. This review aims to establish a theoretical basis for the application of APS in the elderly population and to inform future empirical investigations.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Functional Foods continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. We give authors the possibility to publish their top-quality papers in a well-established leading journal in the food and nutrition fields. The Journal will keep its rigorous criteria to screen high impact research addressing relevant scientific topics and performed by sound methodologies.
The Journal of Functional Foods aims to bring together the results of fundamental and applied research into healthy foods and biologically active food ingredients.
The Journal is centered in the specific area at the boundaries among food technology, nutrition and health welcoming papers having a good interdisciplinary approach. The Journal will cover the fields of plant bioactives; dietary fibre, probiotics; functional lipids; bioactive peptides; vitamins, minerals and botanicals and other dietary supplements. Nutritional and technological aspects related to the development of functional foods and beverages are of core interest to the journal. Experimental works dealing with food digestion, bioavailability of food bioactives and on the mechanisms by which foods and their components are able to modulate physiological parameters connected with disease prevention are of particular interest as well as those dealing with personalized nutrition and nutritional needs in pathological subjects.
