About this episode

Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass and strength, is a common and potentially dangerous condition as we age. This podcast episode, hosted by compounding pharmacist Chris Givant, explores the importance of muscle maintenance for longevity. Chris emphasizes that regular activities like walking the dog or doing yoga are not enough to preserve muscle. Instead, a focus on strength training, proper nutrition, and lifestyle adjustments is essential. Chris discusses testing you can do at home for muscle loss. She discusses supplements, hormones, and exercises that can help combat muscle loss and enhance overall health, ultimately promoting independence and a better quality of life in later years.
