protein is the most under-discussed thing in c/cagrilintide
Genuinely asking, not being difficult.
Everyone in c/progresspics repeats that sarcopenia is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I search I get 8 threads of people agreeing with each other.
Is there a paper? Is there a measurement? Or is this one of those things that is true because it has been repeated since 2023?
I am not trying to be the "source?" guy. I would just like a source.

Yeah, protein matters on rapid loss.
Slight fix: the number was 99.1, not 99.0. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
lean mass retention is the 55 week conversation
Yeah, protein matters on rapid loss.

Adding to this: DEXA is doing more work than the comment implies.
Three years on this site and the questions have not changed at all. Which is depressing or reassuring depending on the day.
