Muscle Health and Healthy Ageing

The feature explores the importance of muscle health and the role that muscle strength plays in maintaining physical function as we age.

It highlights how muscle loss can gradually affect strength, mobility and everyday physical independence. The article draws attention to the importance of recognising changes in muscle health rather than considering them simply a normal consequence of ageing.

The feature also discusses how muscle-related concerns can affect people across different stages of life and why maintaining adequate strength and physical function is an important part of healthy ageing.

The article features Dr. Navin Gnanasekaran and contributes to the wider conversation around preventive health, longevity and helping people age with better physical function.
