Usually a combination of two things happen: -a lower activity rate than when we were younger and engaged in more recreational activities; work and family responsibilities allow less time for staying active - your basal metabolic rate (BMR) begins to decrease after about 30 years old; this translates into your body needing about 50 calories less daily for every decade after this.

As you age, your metabolism tends to slow down, leading to a decrease in energy expenditure. Additionally, hormonal changes and decreased muscle mass can contribute to weight gain. Adopting healthy eating habits and staying active can help mitigate these effects.
