 Why Muscle Is Your Metabolic BFF 💪🏼

Jul 03, 2025

Let’s talk about one of the most underrated organs in your body: muscle.

Nope, we’re not talking bodybuilder biceps or abs that can grate cheese—we mean functional, protective, longevity-boosting muscle.
Why? Because your muscle mass acts like:

✅ A glucose sink—stabilizing blood sugar
✅ A metabolic engine—burning more calories at rest
✅ A hormone helper—boosting insulin sensitivity and testosterone
✅ An anti-aging shield—linked to reduced inflammation and lower mortality

✨Even better? When your muscle is nourished + activated (hi, walking, resistance bands, Pilates, and enough protein)—your mitochondria, brain, bones, and even your skin benefit too.


 

 

Wellness Girlie Tip of the Week 👯‍♀️

📦 Order your groceries like a dietitian ninja:
When building your cart this week, try this:
🔸 Add 1-2 lean proteins (wild salmon, organic chicken, hemp tofu)
🔸 Include 2+ leafy greens (bonus points for bitter greens—hello, liver support)
🔸 Choose 1 fermented food (sauerkraut, coconut yogurt, or miso)
🔸 Grab magnesium-rich snacks (pumpkin seeds, dark chocolate, almonds)
🔸 Toss in a sprinkle of minerals—like LMNT, Ultima, or Cell Salts 💧

Your mitochondria will thank you.


 

 

Trending Research We’re Watching 👀

🧠 Muscle and mood are connected.
New research shows that strength training helps regulate GABA, a calming neurotransmitter that supports nervous system balance. (Translation: squats = more chill.)

📈 Mitochondrial health =  energy + immunity.
Low muscle mass is correlated with reduced mitochondrial output—aka you might feel “wired but tired.”
Support your mitochondria with:

  • Targeted amino acids (like glycine and carnitine)

  • Sauna or infrared sessions

  • Protein, electrolytes, rest. Repeat.
