First seen May 09, 2026 · Last updated May 09, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a supplement made from apple pomace (a byproduct of juicing) can improve muscle strength and physical function in older adults with mild sarcopenia, an age-related muscle loss condition. About 105 people aged 65-80 will take either a low or high dose of the supplement or a placebo daily for 12 weeks. The main goal is to see if handgrip strength improves, along with other measures like walking speed and quality of life.
