Could building muscle add years to your life? – with Dr Gabrielle Lyon

Muscle doesn't just keep us strong and toned – it’s also an essential longevity tool. Physician and bestselling author Dr Gabrielle Lyon joins Liz to explain how lifting weights protects your bones, regulates blood sugar and promotes healthy ageing – and why it’s never too early or late to start.


In this episode, Liz and Gabrielle discuss why we naturally lose muscle mass from our 30s, and how resistance training can protect against osteoporosis and metabolic disease.


Gabrielle also shares practical advice on protein intake and simple, functional strength exercises to build into your week to help you feel stronger, fitter and more resilient


In this episode:

· Why muscle is an organ of longevity

· How perimenopause impacts muscle mass

· The link between poor muscle health and type 2 diabetes

· How building muscle can help you burn fat
