Key Points

To assess how targeted dietary strategies and nutritional modulation counteract metabolic syndrome, vascular dysfunction, and frailty in aging populations.
Synthesized current clinical and preclinical literature evaluating nutritional interventions across metabolic syndrome phenotypes.
Examined mechanistic links connecting nutrient intake to systemic inflammation, vascular health, adiposity, and musculoskeletal decline during aging.
Dietary interventions targeting chronic inflammation and oxidative stress consistently attenuate insulin resistance, central adiposity, and dyslipidemia.
Targeted macro- and micronutrient regimens mitigate vascular stiffness, preserve endothelial function, and prevent progressive frailty and sarcopenic decline.
