As we women age, our metabolism naturally slows down, making it more challenging to maintain or lose weight. Additionally, hormonal changes can also play a role in weight gain, particularly during peri-menopause and menopause. This can lead to frustration and a desire to try various diets to combat weight gain.
However, many diets that are marketed towards women over 40 may not be sustainable or healthy in the long run. Some diets may be too restrictive, leading to nutrient deficiencies and potential health issues. Others may promote rapid weight loss, which can lead to the loss of muscle mass and a slower metabolism.
Instead of focusing on a specific diet, it is important for women over 40 to prioritize a well-balanced diet that includes whole, nutrient-dense foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Regular exercise, particularly strength training, can also help build muscle mass and boost metabolism. Additionally, managing stress, getting enough sleep, and staying hydrated are also crucial components of a healthy lifestyle.
You’re reading this, you’re probably thinking that it’s just another “super-diet” that restricts you from eating 80% of the things you normally do – where you lose weight for 5 weeks and then gain it all back.
It’s the opposite.
