Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Mealworm hydrolysate (MH) improved grip and lower-limb strength and function in older adults. • MH supplementation reduced TNF-α, an inflammation-related biomarker. • Combined MH and walking enhanced physical function beyond exercise alone. • Bioactive peptides in MH (e.g., AAPAV, TEALPNK, HALIT) may underlie functional gains. • MH is a safe, sustainable nutritional strategy for aging muscle health support.
