Dr Gabrielle Lyon discusses the crucial role muscle plays in achieving longevity and body composition and explains how to optimise your diet in a bio-individual way for you

Muscle is the largest endocrine organ in the body and is responsible for the trajectory of ageing and muscle centric medicine focuses on how you can optimise this system to improve your metabolism and build better body composition.

Dr Gabrielle explains the pivotal role skeletal muscle plays and how the muscle system can improve and change body composition, help you achieve longevity and combat disease if you learn how to optimise it with the right nutrition and exercise

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Understanding that skeletal muscle is the origin of the problem means you can effectively treat the problem
Muscle begins to decline from the age of thirty
Individuals who are very active are those who are able to maintain muscle quality
You need to understand the exact requirement for protein to be effective in

body re-composition
Muscle is the only organ you can really add to in a significant way in the body
Skeletal muscle improves survivability and any need the body has for additional amino acid is drawn from the skeletal muscle
Muscle is a nutrient-sensing organ and senses the protein and branch amino acids being taken into the body
As you age the efficiency of sensing the nutrients decreases and muscle becomes more insulin resistant
You can always improve the quality of your life by improving strength training and you can also lay down new tissue if you are getting enough calories and the right type of protein
You lose muscle and your metabolism slows as you age so specific targeted strategies are required
For body re-composition, you have to control the calories and optimise protein
To optimise body composition and muscle mass, as you age, amino acids need to rise to a specific point
You need to hit the leucine threshold to trigger a response in the muscle, building new tissue
The priority around ageing is high-quality protein and creating a flexible plan that focuses on this
You need to decide on whether to go with carbohydrates or fats alongside the protein

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘Now that everything is very convenient the capacity to retain muscle requires specific strategies’

‘Muscle is an organ of longevity

‘The stronger you are the higher your capacity to survive’
