Balanced Body Composition & CSLC CAP

Sculpting Wellness: Achieving Balanced Body Composition with Clinically Supported Lifestyle Correction (Based on Dr. Jolly Thomson’s Approach)

Beyond just weight on the scale, “body composition” refers to what your body is made of – primarily the proportion of fat versus lean mass (muscle, bone, water). A balanced body composition, characterized by a healthy fat-to-muscle ratio, is a cornerstone of true health and longevity. At LCC Hospital in Kochi, Kerala, leveraging Clinically Supported Lifestyle Correction (Based on Dr. Jolly Thomson’s Approach), we focus on optimizing your body’s internal makeup for enhanced well-being.

Why Balanced Body Composition Matters More Than Weight

While being within a healthy weight range is important, two individuals of the same weight can have vastly different body compositions, leading to different health risks. A higher percentage of body fat, especially around the abdomen (visceral fat), is associated with:

• Increased Risk of Chronic Diseases: Higher likelihood of Type 2 Diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and certain cancers.

• Reduced Metabolism: Muscle tissue burns more calories at rest than fat tissue.

• Lower Strength and Mobility: Affecting daily activities and quality of life.

• Hormonal Imbalances: Excess fat can disrupt hormone regulation.

• Poor Bone Health: Sometimes linked to inadequate muscle mass and physical activity.

Focusing on body composition shifts the emphasis from arbitrary numbers to sustainable health and vitality.
