Why Muscle Is Your Metabolic BFF 💪🏼
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.
