Colette discusses sarcopenia in this solo episode. Sarcopenia is the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function that occurs with aging. It typically begins around the age of 40 and accelerates after the age of 60 and it can lead to reduced mobility, increased risk of falls and fractures, and a diminished quality of life.

She covers the following topics:

The impacts of sarcopenia.
The role of our muscle tissue (mamsa dhatu).
Mamsa dhatukshaya - the Ayurvedic view on sacropenia.
Signs and symptoms of mamsa dhatukshaya.
Causes of muscle loss.
Ayurvedic prevention and care strategies.
