Preserving Muscle Mass for Healthy Living
Content Reference
/content/an/hcpproconnect/in/en/home/adult/resources/secure/Preserving-Muscle-Mass-for-Healthy-Living
Abstract

Preserving skeletal muscle mass and function is important for supporting health throughout the life. Muscle encompasses about 30–40 %[i] of the body weight and is a key organ involved in physical movement and posture, as well as for vital functions including chewing, swallowing, and breathing. Besides its relevant role in structural maintenance of the body, muscle has been recognized as an important active metabolic and homeostatic organ acting as the main reservoir for proteins and serving as the main tissue for glucose disposal by the body.

Content Reference

Abstract

Traditional weight loss programs often focus on cutting body fat and hitting lower numbers on the scale but do not focus on gaining muscles. Body recomposition is an approach toward weigh t loss, where the significance of both losing fat and gaining muscles at the same time is highlighted.1 Thus, building muscle and losing fat concomitantly has been referred to as body recomposition by practitioners.2
