Aging entails the alteration of a plethora of mechanisms at the cell and organ level that ultimately contribute to the functional decline of an organism. As a consequence, older individuals undergo a complex condition named frailty, which includes alterations to their physical and psychological abilities. Frailty is characterized by weakness, lower physical activity, worsening of psychological conditions, and low-grade chronic inflammation, which can be fatal in adverse health circumstances. Frailty has been demonstrated to be a tunable condition, and its onset and development is correlated to several factors such as socioeconomic background, nutritional conditions, and physical exercise.
