Am J Clin Nutr 89:880-9. 2009..In older people, undernutrition is associated with increased hospitalization rates and mortality. Because weight loss in older people often reflects a disproportionate reduction of skeletal muscle, anabolic treatments may be beneficial...
Fasting ghrelin is related to skeletal muscle mass in healthy adultsKamilia Tai
University of Adelaide Discipline of Medicine, Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, Australia
Eur J Nutr 48:176-83. 2009..Appetite and energy intake decrease with advancing age, and there is a corresponding decline in total body lean tissue, and an increase in fat mass...
Carbohydrate and fat digestion is necessary for maximal suppression of total plasma ghrelin in healthy adultsKamilia Tai
University of Adelaide Discipline of Medicine, Royal Adelaide Hospital, South Australia, Australia
Appetite 55:407-12. 2010..Orlistat accelerated gastric emptying of the high-fat drink, while acarbose delayed gastric emptying of the sucrose drink. In conclusion, fat and carbohydrate digestion is required for maximal suppression of ghrelin secretion...

University of Adelaide Discipline of Medicine, Royal Adelaide Hospital, South Australia, Australia
Appetite 55:473-7. 2010..We conclude that suppression of energy intake by exogenous CCK-8 does not appear to be attenuated by incorporation of supplemental high-energy, high-fat drinks in the diet of healthy older adults...
Orlistat accentuates the fat-induced fall in blood pressure in older adultsKamilia Tai
Discipline of Medicine, Royal Adelaide Hospital, University of Adelaide, North Terrace, Adelaide, SA 5000, Australia
Br J Nutr 106:417-24. 2011..In conclusion, orlistat potentiates the hypotensive response to oral fat in older adults, possibly as a result of faster gastric emptying of fat. The results do not support a role for fat digestion in lowering blood pressure...
