Brief Summary
To evaluate the effects of protein-enriched soup plus exercise on muscle mass and muscle strength. Besides, the investigators use the valued-based healthcare standard set as well as the Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression, Charlson's comorbidity index Montreal Cognitive Assessment , and Mini Nutritional Assessment as outcome measures and to use the trial in validate additional supplement protein-enriched soup plus exercise could improve the vitality and health of mid-aged and old adults.
