Menopause Muscle or Lack There Of
6 months ago
- Muscle is critical beyond strength: It supports metabolism, bone density, cognitive function, and independence, helping women age healthier.
- Hormonal decline accelerates muscle loss: Drops in estrogen and testosterone during perimenopause and menopause reduce muscle repair and protein synthesis, increasing frailty and fat gain.
- Lifestyle and BHRT can future-proof health: Resistance training, adequate protein, anti-inflammatory nutrition, supplements (Vitamin D and Calcium), sleep, and bioidentical hormones can prevent sarcopenia and maintain functional strength.
