Abstract:
Frailty is a common and important geriatric syndrome characterised by age-associated declines in physiologic reserve and function across multiorgan systems, leading to increased vulnerability for adverse health outcomes including falls, disability, hospitalisation and mortality. This article describes the potential for nutrition and exercise strategies to counteract disabling conditions in frailty.
