Muscle is not just something you build in the gym. Dr. Gabrielle Lyon has spent her career arguing it's the organ that actually determines how well you age, and almost none of us have been taught to think about it that way.
Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, DO, is the founder of Muscle-Centric Medicine and the New York Times bestselling author of Forever Strong. She's spent over two decades studying muscle as the most overlooked organ in medicine.
The line that stuck with me most: she believes we're on track to trade an obesity epidemic for a sarcopenia epidemic, and most people won't see it coming until it's already happened. It's the kind of prediction I can't stop turning over, especially knowing how many women are on these medications right now without anyone telling them how to protect their muscles while they're on them.
