Another misconception is that a supplement can reverse aging. It cannot.
But maintaining muscle, strength, balance, and physical activity can make a meaningful difference in how you function as you get older.
This is particularly important because losing muscle can make everyday activities progressively more difficult. Weakness can contribute to reduced activity, and reduced activity can lead to further loss of strength.
Breaking that cycle with regular movement and resistance training is one of the most powerful strategies for healthy aging.
