Adherence
Mainting fat-free mass through resistance training and protein supplementation is a viable strategy to mitigate Brugada syndrome risk.
Consider incorporating resistance training and adequate protein intake to build fat-free mass, as this may help protect against Brugada syndrome. Discuss this with your doctor, as specific protocols are still being validated.
ModerateQualifiesMEDIUM confidence
Accordingly, interventions such as resistance training and protein supplementation aimed at increasing fat-free mass could represent potential preventive strategies against BrS, though clinical validation is needed.
Why this rating
Based on genetic association (MR) and mechanistic hypotheses (irisin), but explicitly states clinical validation is needed.
