Did you know that nearly two-thirds of women are classified as overweight or obese by age 50? This number only increases as women enter their 60s. Many believe that weight gain during menopause is inevitable, but the truth is, menopause itself isn’t the primary cause.
While menopause brings hormonal changes, lifestyle factors play a much bigger role in midlife weight gain. Common habits such as:
- Exercising less frequently or with lower intensity
- Increased alcohol consumption
- Poor dietary choices
…are far more influential in weight changes!
Excess weight is often a symptom of deeper imbalances rather than the root cause. Hormonal shifts, nutrient deficiencies, and mental health challenges can all contribute to weight gain, regardless of age.
Instead of blaming menopause, let’s focus on identifying and addressing the true factors behind weight gain to regain control of your health.
