Hello Dr. Hyman+ Community! Our August Functional Medicine Deep is here and we are talking about muscle health and longevity. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon takes us on a deep dive into the skeletal muscle system. She discusses how being "under-muscled" increases our chances for chronic diseases like obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular and Alzheimer's disease. She also shows us how we can stimulate skeletal muscle more efficiently as we get older by increasing our protein intake and strength training.
