The Role of Muscle Mass in Longevity

Muscle mass is identified as a critical factor in determining longevity, with a direct correlation between skeletal muscle and lifespan. After age 30, muscle mass begins to decline, which can negatively affect metabolic functions and overall health. Muscle is viewed not just as a physical attribute but as an organ essential to the body’s metabolic operations. To combat age-related muscle loss, maintaining a consistent exercise routine is emphasized as a fundamental aspect of a healthy lifestyle.
