reduce IL-6 levels in elderly with sarcopenia?
3. Can the administration of Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2
weeks reduce the SARC-F score in elderly people with sarcopenia?
4. Can the administration of Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2
weeks increase muscle mass in elderly people with sarcopenia?
5. Can the administration of Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2
weeks increase muscle strength in elderly people with sarcopenia?
6. Can administration of Ophiocephalus striatus extract at a dose of 2x5 grams for 2 weeks
improve physical performance in elderly with sarcopenia?
Participants will:
