Body composition

Appendicular lean mass index

Measured in kg/m²

Reference ranges

Optimal

7.5 – 11 kg/m²

functional-medicine target

Standard

5.5 – 12 kg/m²

lab reference range

Optimal ranges are tighter than standard lab ranges and reflect functional-medicine targets, not the populations they were derived from. Reference bands depend on sex, age, and circumstance — Juno's lab analysis layers your profile context onto the printed range when you paste a value.

Peptide relevance

ALMI = (arm LBM + leg LBM) / height². Sarcopenia-diagnostic threshold per EWGSOP2: <7.0 (M), <5.5 (F). GH-axis peptides and resistance-training adjuncts plausibly favorable; trial data sparse for ALMI specifically.
