Forever Strong

Discover how to reset your metabolism, build strength, and extend your life with this accessible new book that highlights the importance of muscles for health and longevity, authored by the founder of the Institute for Muscle-Centered Medicine. After years of observing her patients in practice, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon noticed a pattern. While her patients struggled with a variety of conditions, they all shared the same core issue: they had too little muscle mass rather than too much fat.

When we think of muscles, we often think of strength or aesthetics, but in reality, muscle tissue is so much more than that. As the largest endocrine organ in the body, muscle actually determines everything about the course of health and aging. Many of the conditions Dr. Lyon's patients faced were symptoms of underdeveloped or unhealthy muscle tissue.

Now, Dr. Lyon offers an easy-to-follow program for nutrition, fitness, and self-care based on evidence and groundbreaking research that teaches you how to optimize your muscles—regardless of your age or health status. Discover how to overcome everything from obesity to autoimmune diseases and avoid conditions like Alzheimer’s, high blood pressure, and diabetes by following Dr. Lyon’s powerful new approach to becoming strong for life.
