This study found a significant beneficial effect of supplementation with whey protein, essential amino acids, and vitamin D compared with placebo in elderly sarcopenic adults participating in controlled resistance training, with a gain of 1.7 kg in FFM. They suggests that whey protein, amino acid, and vitamin D supplementation, together with gentle physical activity, can produce changes in catabolic mediators, lowering inflammatory markers such as CRP, and improving anabolic markers such as IGF-I.
