This study aimed to identify potential nutritional gaps in the sarcopenic population. It compared nutrient intake and biochemical nutrient levels between sarcopenic and nonsarcopenic older adults and found differences between the groups. Consuming dietary supplements led to more similar levels for some nutrients.
