TCM views on Sarcopenia

After age 30, the density and strength of muscles will decrease, thus increasing the risk of sarcopenia.

About 25% of elderly people suffer from sarcopenia. Their muscles become weak and they are more likely to fall. These accidental falls are the number one cause of injury to the elderly worldwide.

 

Therefore, what are the symptoms of sarcopenia? How do we identify if one has sarcopenia?
From TCM perspective, what treatments and exercise can we practice to alleviate these signs?

 

Ma Kuang TCM Physician Dr. Chang Yun Te will explain "Sarcopenia" on Mediacorp Channel 8 “Let’s Talk About Health" at 11am tomorrow morning. Stay tuned!
