As you lose muscle, you lose mitochondria and your metabolism slows down. Then there is the fact that the natural loss of muscle mass and strength as we age is associated with all-cause mortality and linked to the incidence of many chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease and stroke, hypertension, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes. This is why muscle mass is not only essential for maintaining a healthy weight, but it’s also a key factor in reducing the risk of chronic disease and improving your healthspan and longevity.
