What’s the difference between an enzyme and a hormone? I can’t make an enzyme! Hahahahahaha!
But Seriously folks:
Producing a few extra post-menopausal pounds? It’s not your hormones, those messenger molecules circulating your through your body are often blamed but rarely the culprit. It might be:
- A subtle decline in muscle tissue, which slows your metabolism
- An increase in appetite that makes it easier to eat more than you need
- A decrease in natural activity, leading to fewer calories burned throughout the day
Eat a salad and get on the treadmill. Problem solved.
