How to Build and Maintain Muscle for Metabolic Health and Longevity

The Dr. Hyman Show

NOTE

Importance of Skeletal Muscle Over Obesity

The key insight is that individuals with low or unhealthy skeletal muscle mass, rather than obesity, showed similarities in brain health. Traditional advice of 'move more, eat less' does not address the issue of skeletal muscle health. There is a lack of focus on the importance of dietary protein and maintaining strength with aging. Measurement of skeletal muscle is often overlooked in healthcare settings, even in clinics dealing with obesity. The speaker emphasizes the necessity of shifting the paradigm to focus on skeletal muscle rather than obesity to address the root cause of health problems.
