Body Composition Remodeling

Meaning

Body composition remodeling is the dynamic physiological process involving shifts in the relative proportions of the body’s constituent tissues, specifically fat mass and lean body mass, including muscle and bone. This continuous turnover and restructuring are essential for adaptation to changes in energy status, physical activity, and aging. In a clinical context, positive remodeling aims to increase lean mass while optimizing the distribution of adipose tissue. Understanding this process is vital for therapeutic interventions focused on metabolic health and sarcopenia prevention.
