Evidence and Risk Labels
Evidence A/B/C reflects research maturity, and risk levels reflect monitoring needs. These labels support comparison, not diagnosis or treatment decisions.
See full scoring guideGuidance Summary
Adequate daily protein and meal distribution are core for muscle preservation; benefit is strongest when paired with resistance training.
Monitoring Priorities
- daily protein grams
- lean mass
- strength metrics
- functional tests
