[edit] Veganism

Any references for the statement on improving BMD in veganism in senescence? Also, the body of literature seems heterogeneous on the incidence of sarcopenia and osteoporosis with meat intake... any solid evidence for that statement? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vyapada (talk • contribs) 07:10, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Can

Can someone comment as to what still needs to be "wikified"?

[edit] The difference between sarcopenia and cachexia

Is there a difference? I'm reading a report right now that talks about sarcopenic cachexia. I'd like to see an explanation that deals with the two terms. /Eribro 20:58, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vitamin D deficiency

I added a ref and comment about this. Should a Notes section be established for that ref instead of adding as I did? Chaveso 18:44, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
