New research from Canada suggests that over-60s should eat protein at all three daily meals to help stave off age-related muscle decline, which can contribute to loss of independence and falls.
Researchers at 成人VR视频 in Canada studied the effects of protein consumption on muscle strength in seniors.
Older adults tend to get most of their protein from just one of their daily meals -- dinner -- whereas to help preserve their physical strength, protein consumption should be spread out throughout the day, the researchers conclude.

Quebec researchers link protein distribution to greater mass and muscle strength in the elderly.
Loss of muscle is an inevitable consequence of aging that can lead to frailty, falls or mobility problems. Eating enough protein is one way to remedy it, but it would seem that spreading protein equally among the three daily meals could be linked to greater mass and muscle strength in the elderly.

Some of you may have noticed trees being felled near the John Abbott College Memorial Field. 听While we never want to cut trees down, nature sometimes leaves us no choice. 听Four of the trees being taken down this week are rotten oak trees, which pose a safety hazard, and another four are ash trees infected with the emerald ash borer that has been wreaking havoc on Montreal Island in recent years. 听All the trees being removed are being replaced. 听Other trees will get a significant pruning. 听It is likely that more oak trees will need to be felled in future years for the same reasons.
