What does the graph show ?
As we age, our basal metabolic rate (BMR) naturally slows down, meaning we burn fewer calories at rest. This can lead to weight gain if we don't adjust our calorie intake accordingly.
We lose muscle mass as we age, which is replaced by fat. Muscles burn more calories than fat, so this shift can further contribute to weight gain. Many people become less physically active as they age, leading to a decrease in calorie expenditure and potentially contributing to weight gain.
