Abstract Sarcopenia is an age‐related muscle disorder typically associated with a poor quality of life. Its definition has evolved over time, and several underlying causes sarcopenia in the elderly have been proposed. However, exact mechanisms involved sarcopenia, as well effective treatments for this condition, are not fully understood. The purpose article was to conduct comprehensive review previous evidence regarding definition, diagnosis, risk factors, efficacy plant‐derived natural products sarcopenia. methodological approach current narrative performed using PubMed, Scopus, Web Science databases, Google Scholar (up March 2021) order satisfy our objectives. substantial beneficial effects along safety some including curcumin, resveratrol, catechin, soy protein, ginseng on reported review.
