What an inspiring day at the 4th Scientific Meeting of the Asia Pacific Alliance for Obesity and Sarcopenia Metabolism! 🌏
Many Thanks to the Hong Kong Nutrition Association for the scholarship and the exciting opportunity of becoming a member of APAOSM.
The highlight was the discussion on the relationship between current weight loss medications and muscle loss.
With easy availability, globally, there is a huge shift in how people lose weight. The quick way with least effort is gaining popularity and acceptance worldwide. The connection to muscle loss is conveniently not as well known.
We must be vigilant. If we lose muscle, we lose strength, bone density, and ultimately metabolic health, and quality of life.
Let's remember the three-legged stool of health: Medical Science, Nutrition, and Movement. You can't take one away without falling over. In this case literally.
Let's work together and focus on healthy composition, not just the number on the scale! 🌱🏃♀️
