Tag: Fat to muscle

According to a 2017 study from Live Science, fat and muscle are fundamentally different types of tissue, and one cannot be converted into the other, effectively debunking the common fitness misconception that your body can convert fat into muscle. While direct conversion is not possible, it is entirely realistic to lose fat and build muscle simultaneously through a strategic approach known as body recomposition.

Biochemical science confirms that proteins and fats are fundamentally different molecules with distinct metabolic functions within the body. While both are essential macronutrients, the idea that fatty acids build protein is a widespread myth that contradicts basic metabolic processes.
