Speaker 1: Everybody, and welcome. It is June thirtieth, twenty twenty six,
Speaker 1: and welcome. We have an article here by a doctor
Speaker 1: yang Ya and g dated June twenty third, seven days ago.
Speaker 1: It says most skin aging can be significantly delayed. Do
Speaker 1: I have your attention now? Want your skin to not age?
Speaker 1: That's what we're going to talk about today. Stay tuned, hi,
Speaker 1: and welcome to Health Talk with Doctor Lynn. Your daily dose.
Speaker 1: The information you hear on the show is informational. It's
Speaker 1: not meant to diagnose or treat any disease. Any kind
Speaker 1: of complete health conditions must be checked out and discussed
Speaker 1: with your primary care physician. Get ready for the good
Speaker 1: news of the day. God bless you, folks, and here
Speaker 1: is Doctor Lynn. Our daily devotional today comes from the
Speaker 1: Book of John Chapter eight. I am the Truth, the
Speaker 1: one who came to set you free. As the Holy
Speaker 1: Spirit controls your mind and actions, more fully, you become
Speaker 1: free in me. You're increasingly released to become the one
Speaker 1: I created you to be. This is a work that
Speaker 1: I do in you. As you yield to my spirit,
Speaker 1: I can do my best handiwork when you sit in
Speaker 1: the stillness of MY presence focusing your entire being on me.
Speaker 1: Let my thoughts burst freely upon your consciousness, stimulating abundant life.
Speaker 1: I am the Way and the truth and the life.
Speaker 1: As you follow me, I lead you along passive newness
Speaker 1: ways you've never imagined. Don't worry about what's on the
Speaker 1: road up ahead. I want you to find your security
Speaker 1: in knowing me, the one who died to set you free.
Speaker 1: Hell Elijah Stay.
Speaker 2: Tuned, twenty.
Speaker 1: Seventies, Van nine one six four two one five Eight
Speaker 1: years of caring for a mother with dementia will take
Speaker 1: things from you. Sleep time, the freedom of not being
Speaker 1: needed every hour. But Helen didn't know. What no one
Speaker 1: had thought to mention was that it had also been
Speaker 1: harming her bones. Helen was sixty eight, a retired school
Speaker 1: teacher when she came to my office three months after
Speaker 1: a fall that broke her wrist. Her primary care physician
Speaker 1: had done what most good doctors do, ordered a dual
Speaker 1: energy X ray adsorpalmitry dexis scan, started her on medication
Speaker 1: to prevent loss of bone density, and told her to
Speaker 1: take more calcium. The risk, it turned out, was the
Speaker 1: smaller of her two losses. A body composition analysis revealed
Speaker 1: Helen had been losing muscle for years as well. Her
Speaker 1: lean mass had fallen well below what her frame could carry.
Speaker 1: The kind of erosion that unfolds so gradually a patient
Speaker 1: barely notices it until something breaks. Few patients here by
Speaker 1: osteoporosis before a bone break. Fewers still hear about sarcopenia,
Speaker 1: the steady disappearance of muscle. By the time a fall
Speaker 1: or a scan finally reveals the problem, years of bone
Speaker 1: density and substantial share of lean muscle are already gone.
Speaker 1: The standard response is a prescription, a calcium supplement, and
Speaker 1: a vague instruction to stay active. In my clinical experience,
Speaker 1: that response is profoundly inadequate. The loss of bone and
Speaker 1: muscles among one of the most consequential, but fortunately also
Speaker 1: among one of the most preventable and reversible aspects of aging.
Speaker 1: Frailty is one of the strongest predictors of dependent living
Speaker 1: in death after sixty five. The patient who maintains muscular
Speaker 1: skeletal strength is far better position to maintain everything else, independence, balance, metabolism,
Speaker 1: even the cognitive resilience that comes from staying physically capable.
Speaker 1: Reversing decline requires a broader perspective. In my practice, I
Speaker 1: evaluate every patient using the ACS model for health and medicine.
Speaker 1: Four dimensions. That is, influence how the body maintains or
Speaker 1: loses its structure over time. Anatomy, chemistry, energy, and soul.
Speaker 1: Bone of muscle loss is rarely failure in just one
Speaker 1: of these dimensions. Treating only one or two A prescription here,
Speaker 1: a supplement there is why so many patients keep falling.
Speaker 1: Helen's condition was a failure in all four dimensions. When
Speaker 1: Helen told me she walked forty minutes every day and
Speaker 1: had done so for twenty years, she expected that I
Speaker 1: I would count her in favor, and I did, but
Speaker 1: not nearly enough. She had never looked at anything heavier
Speaker 1: than a bag of groceries in her life. Bone and
Speaker 1: muscle are living tissues, and they respond directly to the
Speaker 1: demands placed on them. Wolf's law, articulated more than a
Speaker 1: century ago, holds it. Bone remodels in response to the
Speaker 1: forces it experiences. When you take away the load, the
Speaker 1: osteoblast the cells and build bone stop receiving the order
Speaker 1: to work. This is why my bedridden patients lose bone
Speaker 1: at alarming speed, and astronauts returned from long missions with
Speaker 1: bone densities of someone decades older and after train hard
Speaker 1: to get it back, a condition called space osteoporosis. It's
Speaker 1: also why walking, though far better than sitting, is not
Speaker 1: enough to maintain bone density on its own. Bone responds
Speaker 1: to load, resistance, impact, and weight that genuinely challenges the tissue.
Speaker 1: Muscle obeys the same role. With one harsh edition, the
Speaker 1: body actively dismantles tissue that it doesn't believe it needs.
Speaker 1: After roughly aged forty, muscle becomes progressively deft to signals
Speaker 1: that once build it, a phenomena called anabolic resistance. The
Speaker 1: same protein and the same workout that added muscle at
Speaker 1: thirty no longer suffices at sixty. People who don't raise
Speaker 1: the stimulus lose a little more every year. Modern life
Speaker 1: accelerates all the above physiological changes the average adult and
Speaker 1: now sits up nine hours a day. Hip flexers shortened
Speaker 1: glue just go quiet. The upper back rounds forward in
Speaker 1: the posterior chain, the structural backbone of human movement wastes away.
Speaker 1: Give your skeleton and muscles a reason to stay. For
Speaker 1: most adults, that means resistance training two to three times
Speaker 1: a week, working the major muscle groups against meaningful weight.
Speaker 1: The biochemistry of bone and muscles rarely investigated in depth,
Speaker 1: and the standard lab panel misses most of what matters.
Speaker 1: Vitamin ded's the first place to look. Optimal level of
Speaker 1: serum twenty five ohd from muscular skeletal function arguably lines
Speaker 1: between fifty and eighty range rather than thirty, which is
Speaker 1: what most doctors say is okay. Vitamin K two is
Speaker 1: often left out of the conversation entirely. It directs calcium
Speaker 1: into bone and away from material walls. Magnesium deficiencies widespread.
Speaker 1: More than half American adults are functionally short and magnesium,
Speaker 1: yet it rarely appears on standard panels. Proteins and underestimated variable.
Speaker 1: The official US recommended daily allows of point eight grams
Speaker 1: per kilogram of body weight, is widely regarded by geriatric
Speaker 1: and sports medicine specialists, is too low for adults past forty.
Speaker 1: Helen's dietary intake on a typical day slice of toast,
Speaker 1: small salad a light dinner gave her under thirty five
Speaker 1: grams of protein. Each meal needs to supply roughly thirty
Speaker 1: grams of high quality protein to overcome antabolic resistance. And
Speaker 1: actually switch on muscle synthesis. Hormones complete the picture. Testosterone
Speaker 1: growth hormone IGF in some light, growth factor DHA, building
Speaker 1: block for the production of major male and female sucks.
Speaker 1: Hormones including testosterone and estrogen, and thyroid all declined through midlife.
Speaker 1: Every one of them is essential for maintaining bone and muscle.
Speaker 1: Ask your physition for a panel that goes beyond the basics.
Speaker 1: Treat supplements such as D and K two and magnesium
Speaker 1: as targeted corrections for measurable deficiencies. Even flawless training and
Speaker 1: nutrition could fail if the body lacks the cellular power
Speaker 1: to act upon them. Building bone and muscles metabolically expensive
Speaker 1: work and depends on healthy mitochondria, the engines inside of
Speaker 1: each and every one of our cells. Patients with chronic fatigue,
Speaker 1: lingering posts, viral syndromes, or significant toxic exposures lose muscle
Speaker 1: faster because the cellular power to rebuild them is compromised.
Speaker 1: Sleep is when the rebuilding actually happens. Growth hormone is
Speaker 1: released primarily during the deepest of slow waves sleep, and
Speaker 1: in that window the body completes muscle protein synthesis and
Speaker 1: bone remodeling. Protects sleep as if it was a prescription,
Speaker 1: a constant schedule, a cool dark room, a hard stop
Speaker 1: on late night, screen used, and alcohol intake, both of
Speaker 1: which sabotage this slow waves sleep treat. Emotional load is
Speaker 1: a clinical variable, not a footnote. Small daily steps can
Speaker 1: make big changes in your bone and muscle health. Lift
Speaker 1: weights two or three times a week. It can increase
Speaker 1: your weight over time. Get thirty grams of protein with
Speaker 1: every meal, check your vitamin D mag and have vindicated
Speaker 1: your hormones and correct what is genuinely low. One year
Speaker 1: after we began lifting weights twice a week, sleeping seven
Speaker 1: and a half hours, and eating protein at every meal,
Speaker 1: Helen's follow up DEXA scan showed a meaningful increase, her
Speaker 1: first gain in over a decade. She has not fallen
Speaker 1: since she told me almost topassing that she had finally
Speaker 1: began to grieve her mother. The two changes were not unrelated.
Speaker 1: The disappearance of bone and muscle is not a sentence
Speaker 1: handed down by age. It's a cumulative product of two
Speaker 1: little mechanical load, two little nourishment, declining hormones, depleted energy,
Speaker 1: and unprocessed weight of life. And every one of those
Speaker 1: can be addressed. So this really wasn't about skin aging,
Speaker 1: It was about bone. Sorry, hopefully you got something out
Speaker 1: of that and need help, give me a call seven
Speaker 1: two seven nine one six four to two. God bless
Speaker 1: you folks. See us
