\t\t There are several changes many women experience after age 40, including:<\/p>\n Women's metabolisms tend to slow down after 40 for numerous reasons.<\/p>\n Hormones often fluctuate, causing lower levels of estrogen or thyroid hormone.<\/p>\n Furthermore, muscle mass tends to decrease in women over 40.<\/p>\n Because muscle burns more calories than fat, less lean mass means a slower metabolism and fewer calories burned throughout the day.<\/p>\n Estrogen levels tend to decrease over 40, especially with menopause in women.<\/p>\n These changes can contribute to low energy levels, weight and body fat gains, less lean body mass, and a higher risk of osteoporosis.<\/p>\n Women are more likely than men to experience low thyroid hormone levels, also known as hypothyroidism, which is linked with fatigue, weight gain, hair changes, and feeling cold.<\/p>\n Women over 40 have different nutritional needs than their younger peers.<\/p>\n They often need fewer calories to maintain their weights, smaller portions to achieve calorie goals, more calcium, less iron, and more vitamin D after age 70.<\/p>\n \t\t In just 6-weeks on our FOUNDATIONS<\/u> Program, you'll transform your health and body, for the rest of your life!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Women over 40 can follow a few simple tips to ensure they meet, but not exceed, their daily nutritional requirements.<\/p>\n Examples include:<\/p>\n Protein foods help maintain lean body mass, minimizing the effects of age-related muscle loss to keep your metabolism high.<\/p>\n Dairy foods and plant-based alternatives are rich in protein, calcium, and vitamin D, which enhance teeth and bone health.<\/p>\n Soy protein is a good source of estrogen-like compounds, which studies<\/a> show may improve symptoms of menopause in women.<\/p>\n Examples of muscle-building foods to include in your diet are:<\/p>\n Choose a variety of protein-rich foods at each meal and snack, and aim to consume three servings of dairy foods or calcium-rich (plant-based) equivalents daily.<\/p>\n Nuts, seeds, nut butters, and soy milk are excellent sources of protein AND heart-healthy fats.<\/p>\n \t\t As a busy women, it\u2019s challenging to stay consistent with healthy eating.
