Deep dives
Skeletal muscle is the organ of longevity
Skeletal muscle is an endocrine organ and plays a vital role in longevity. It is our metabolic sink, body armor, and interfaces with the immune system. The more healthy skeletal muscle mass we have, the greater our survivability against diseases like diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. Skeletal muscle is also under voluntary control and can be improved through resistance training and good nutrition.
