There will be a last time, a last look, a last moment. It’s something I’ve grown to realize and I would love to say growing older made me realize that, but I think there’s much more to it. I see so many people around me distracting ourselves from the inevitability of what’s to eventually come.Continue reading “Reflecting on Mortality”

While it is beneficial for a lot of reasons, to start walking, there are flaws in this system of thinking. Most of us aren’t incredibly active as it is, meaning we only have so much time we can comfortably allot to health and fitness, usually before a big burnout. For most people that’s probably somewhereContinue reading “Is the doctors prescription of walking actually solving your issues over the long run?”

In Its most obvious form, consistency makes a lot of sense from the standpoint of getting where you want to go. Any goal usually takes time, and in order to get to that goal you generally need to work a systematic process, habitually, over time in order to get from A to B. Usually withinContinue reading “Why Consistency Really Matters”

As we age, maintaining a healthy lifestyle becomes increasingly vital, especially for individuals over the age of 50. Among the many health concerns faced by this demographic, type 2 diabetes stands out as a significant challenge. Engaging in regular exercise can have a profound impact on managing and preventing type 2 diabetes, leading to improvedContinue reading “The Transformative Power of Exercise: Managing Type 2 Diabetes after 50”

Bloating, gas, and constipation can have a variety of causes, but some of the most common root causes include:

Background: Decreased skeletal muscle mass and low physical performance are independently associated with increased mortality in elderly individuals. However, little is known about the effects of skeletal muscle mass combined with physical performance on the prediction of mortality risk among community-dwelling older adults. This study aimed to determine the combined effects of skeletal muscle massContinue reading “Muscle, Lifespan & Aging”

Background: There is debate whether body mass index is a good predictor of health outcomes because different tissues, namely skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and fat mass (FM), may be differentially associated with risk. We investigated the association of appendicular SMM (aSMM) and FM with fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all‐cause mortality. We comparedContinue reading “Muscle Mass & CardioVascular Disease Association”

Background(introduction): Sarcopenia is a condition characterized by a progressive and generalized loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and/or physical performance [1]. The overall prevalence of sarcopenia among Korean women over the age of 50 years is estimated as 20.2% [2]. In recent years, researchers have come to regard sarcopenia not only as a part ofContinue reading “Skeletal Muscle Mass, Sarcopenia & Metabolic Disease Association”

Background(introduction): Recent studies suggested that muscle mass and muscle strength may independently or synergistically affect aging-related health outcomes in older adults; however, prospective data on mortality in the general population are sparse We aimed to prospectively examine individual and joint associations of low muscle mass and low muscle strength with all-cause mortality in a nationallyContinue reading “Muscle Mass, Muscle Strength & Lifespan”

As we age, many of us experience a loss of muscle mass and strength, a condition known as sarcopenia. This loss of muscle can lead to a number of health issues, including an increased risk of falls, frailty, and even mortality. However, research has shown that resistance training and gaining muscle mass can have aContinue reading “Gaining Muscle & It’s Effects On Longevity”
