As we age, we lose muscle mass; this is called sarcopenia. The consequences of sarcopenia can be devastating, like increased risks of falls, reduced physical capacity, disability, depression, less participation in societal activities, and less enjoyment of life. In 2016, the International Classification of Diseases, or ICD version 10, officially recognized sarcopenia as a disease. It is a condition characterized by loss of muscle mass and function with age. The world population is getting older and older, which is a fabulous thing, but then more people are seeking medical care because of the consequences of sarcopenia.
