Dr. Mark Hyman: 本期节目探讨了骨骼肌在整体健康中的关键作用,包括其在代谢健康、免疫功能和激素平衡中的作用。我们深入探讨了如何有效地建立肌肉,以及久坐不动的生活方式和蛋白质摄入不足如何导致肌肉损失、胰岛素抵抗和代谢紊乱。 Dr. Gabrielle Lyon: 骨骼肌是人体最大的器官之一,对健康和长寿至关重要。它不仅参与运动,还在代谢健康、免疫功能和激素调节中发挥着关键作用。不健康的骨骼肌会导致胰岛素抵抗,进而引发多种代谢疾病。维持骨骼肌健康需要进行力量训练和足够的蛋白质摄入,并且永远不会太晚开始。肌细胞因子是运动骨骼肌分泌的肽类激素,会影响局部和全身的生理功能,包括改善大脑功能。老年人需要比年轻人摄入更多蛋白质,并在训练后尽快补充蛋白质,以克服肌肥大抗性。高地面活动(例如深蹲)比低地面活动(例如二头肌弯举)更有效地促进肌肉生长。电刺激和血液循环限制等技术可以帮助在不受伤的情况下提高训练强度。 Dr. Mark Hyman: 本期节目中,我们与Gabrielle博士讨论了骨骼肌在人体中的作用,以及如何通过运动和饮食来改善肌肉健康。我们探讨了肌肉作为内分泌器官的作用,以及它在对抗胰岛素抵抗中的作用。我们还讨论了如何有效地建立肌肉,以及为什么肌肉质量是代谢健康的关键。我们还讨论了如何测量肌肉健康状况,以及如何通过力量训练和足够的蛋白质摄入来维持健康的衰老。

Muscle plays a vital role in overall health, impacting longevity, metabolic health, and immune function. It's the largest organ, crucial for glucose disposal and a primary site of mitochondrial function. Sedentary lifestyles lead to unhealthy muscle, impacting metabolic health and increasing the risk of various diseases.
  • Muscle is the largest organ in the body and crucial for longevity.
  • Sedentary muscle is unhealthy, regardless of overall health.
  • Muscle is the primary site for glucose disposal and mitochondrial function.
  • Insulin resistance in muscle is a root cause of many metabolic diseases.

Shownotes Transcript

Muscle isn’t just about strength—it’s about longevity, metabolic health, and even immune function. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon to uncover the critical role that skeletal muscle plays in our overall health. We dive deep into muscle as an endocrine organ, its role in fighting insulin resistance, and why sedentary lifestyles are wreaking havoc on our bodies. From understanding how to build muscle effectively at any age to learning why muscle mass is the key to metabolic health, this conversation will change the way you think about strength training.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Exactly how much protein we need to eat every day

  • The differences between plant and animal proteins

  • The impact of resistance training

  • The metabolic benefits of muscle

  • Why you should spread your protein intake evenly throughout the day

  • How sedentary behavior and insufficient protein intake can lead to muscle loss, insulin resistance, and metabolic disorders
