The Importance of Skeletal Muscle in Overall Health and Longevity

In this episode, I’m speaking with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, founder of the Institute for Muscle-Centric Medicine®, about her new book, Forever Strong. 

I believe Dr. Lyon’s message is so crucial that I bought her book for myself and my parents—this episode is a must-listen!

In this podcast, Dr. Lyon and I discuss:

• The completely overlooked driver of cardiovascular disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and the epidemic of chronic illnesses…and it’s a factor you can change TODAY

• Why worrying about fat gain is the wrong place to put your attention, and what to focus on instead 

• “Calories in-calories out” and the real truth behind this hotly debated topic—plus, a deep dive into the macronutrient that can make or break body composition

• An evidence-based option for the over 40 million people on statin drugs…could cholesterol and triglycerides be managed without the risk of statin side effects?

• Why the “obesity epidemic” is completely inaccurate, and a new way to view obesity that will actually make a difference in people’s lives

• Plus, why most seniors lose up to 75% of their mitochondrial capacity…and how you can avoid being part of that statistic
