An Unexpected Discovery in Supporting Muscle Health with Age

Over the years, science has explored various approaches to support healthy aging — from telomeres to NAD+. But recently, a group of researchers turned their focus to a common challenge after age 50: the gradual loss of strength and vitality.

Even with regular exercise and a protein-rich diet, many people report difficulty maintaining their energy levels and physical performance as they get older.

Dr. Frank Shallenberger, a physician with over 44 years of clinical practice and editor-in-chief of Second Opinion Newsletter, has been closely following this line of research.

He notes that during a series of studies, scientists identified a natural strategy that showed potential to **support the maintenance of muscle mass** and promote an overall sense of well-being — especially for those seeking to preserve independence and quality of life as they age.

Now, he’s sharing his insights in a free interview for people who want to understand how to consistently support their muscle health as they get older.
