The Importance of Muscle for Health and Metabolism
Muscle is crucial for overall health and plays a significant role in metabolism. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon discusses how muscle-centric medicine highlights the importance of muscle over fat. She emphasizes that healthy skeletal muscle is like a filet, while unhealthy muscle can have intramuscular fat. Healthy muscle produces counter regulatory myokines that help buffer inflammation caused by excess body fat. Contrary to the narrative around testosterone, Dr. Lyon argues that testosterone is essential for both men and women, contrary to its demonization in the media. She believes that hormone optimization is crucial for longevity and overall health.
