Aging Powerfully With Muscle Building, Nutrition, and Peptides with Dr. Eric Fete

When it comes to healthy aging, many women forget to build muscle. However, according to fitness physician Dr. Eric Fete, that component is critical. Muscle building helps you look and feel better, but it’s also for everything else related to your health, too, including metabolism. Muscle is the foundation, the framework, to help you move and function and exercise and live a good life. And as we all get older, we all lose it. When you focus on building muscle, you’ll help support your blood sugar, insulin function, brain health, and more. In this conversation with JJ, Dr. Eric Fete shares his tips and how-tos for building muscles and having strong bones. He gives ideas for newbies, along with an easy, travel-friendly fitness hack that JJ swears by. Then, they discuss the role of nutrition in fitness and healthy aging. Their tips are simple and doable – but they aren’t what many women are focusing on. After that, Dr. Eric gives a quick primer on peptides – a great additional strategy for many health solutions. Peptides can enhance the body’s function in many ways; however, the foundation is nutrition and fitness. Just start with the basics, and then build from there for your best health possible, in your 40s and beyond! Whether you’re a fitness fanatic or a muscle-building newbie, you’ll want to tune into this information-packed episode!
