Question:
The condition can be avoided with early diagnosis and intake of a protein-rich diet and muscle strengthening exercises?
Answer:
From the critical survey of the article that has been retrieved from the Hospital Research Foundation of Australia about 81 year old Dorothy, it can be said that, Dorothy has been suffering from Sarcopenia for a tenure of two years. Sarcopenia is a medical condition that causes loss of muscle strength and leads to the inability of the patient to perform daily chores (Cruz-Jentoft et al.2014). The condition can be avoided with early diagnosis and intake of a protein-rich diet and muscle strengthening exercises. With advancing age it is important to lead an active life to avoid such complicated disorders (Rondanelli et al.2015).
