Frailty Is The Kiss Of Death | Solo

EP. 257: Join my NEW community for Gen X women: ⁠https://www.skool.com/drtyna/about ⁠Frailty is something most people don’t think about until it’s too late, but it’s one of the biggest predictors of whether you survive illness, recover from injury, or maintain independence as you age. It’s also the harbinger of doom for all cause mortality and dementia. In this episode, I break down why frailty isn’t just “getting older”, it’s a metabolic and muscular decline that starts earlier than you think and accelerates fast if you’re not actively fighting it. I share a personal story about my mom’s recent hospitalization and how quickly muscle loss and weakness can set in, even in someone who seems active. We also dig into the science behind frailty, its connection to metabolic health, dementia, and mortality, and why muscle is your greatest protective organ. If you care about staying independent, avoiding hospital decline, and actually thriving as you age, this is a conversation you need to hear.
