While supplements often grab headlines, a &ldquo;food first&rdquo; approach to muscle preservation emphasizes obtaining necessary nutrients directly from whole, unprocessed foods. This strategy recognizes the complex synergy of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and other bioactive compounds found naturally in food, which often work together in ways that isolated supplements cannot fully replicate. Focusing on whole foods provides a broader spectrum of benefits, supporting not just muscle but also bone health, immune function, and metabolic well-being.</p>
