“Muscle is incredibly efficient. It’s 50% of the human body on average, at least for a male,” said Ryan Truby, PhD, an engineering professor at Northwestern University.

However, little is known about this type of body fat in humans, and its impact on health. This is the first study to comprehensively investigate the effects of fatty muscles on heart disease.
