Lean Body Mass

8K1K110

Lean body mass is the weight of your body minus fat—comprising muscles, bones, organs, and fluids—that supports movement, metabolism, and overall strength. Research shows that variations near genes involved in muscle growth and metabolism (like MSTN, IGF1, and PPARGC1A) can influence individual differences in lean mas...
