Do you want to optimize fat loss, hormone health, and/or bone strength? You should know that muscle is your secret weapon.

In today’s episode of the Longevity Podcast, I talk with Eric Fete, DO about the intricate relationship between muscle and bone health, and how strength training, proper nutrition, and supplements can help maintain and improve both. We also explore the importance of muscle as a powerful energy factory due to its high concentration of mitochondria, and how staying active can help reclaim your energy levels. Dr Eric and I touch on the crucial role of testosterone in women's health, and how lifting heavy can support this hormone, leading to improved insulin sensitivity, muscle mass, blood pressure, mood, and a reduced risk of cancer.

Lastly, we address concerns about fat loss peptides potentially causing muscle mass loss. We emphasize that proper nutrition and strength training can help negate these effects, ensuring that weight loss comes primarily from body fat.

Dr. Eric Fete, DO is the founder of PrimeX, a preventive health, age management, and peak performance company that provides nutrition products, educational materials, physician-grade supplements, hormone therapy, and personalized health plans for maximum health, vitality, performance, and wellness.

Key Takeaways:

Muscles secret myokines which directly build bone and make it stronger. Myokines exert a stimulative effect and prevent bone reabsorption (breaking down and weakening). Proper nutrition, strength training, and supplements can mitigate bone deterioration.
Muscle is one of the most powerful energy factories because it’s full of mitochondria. You can reclaim your energy by being active.
Fat loss peptides can possibly make you lose muscle mass, but proper nutrition and strength training can negate those effects so you lose mainly body fat. You could also balance it out by using other peptides like growth hormone.
