And as Cassie put it...thank you for the props, lol.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Yes, your metabolic rate slows with age. The first dip (I believe, is 25 yrs old). This is why putting lean muscle on is very helpful. I'm 26..and I even see the difference in which I process food.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09910227243865653563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818633770583247825.post-33004593261012412202009-02-20T19:09:00.000-08:002009-02-20T19:09:00.000-08:00Yes, the metabolism changes as you age, that is, i...Yes, the metabolism changes as you age, that is, it slows down. Your metabolic type doesn't really change, just your metabolic rate. Your furnace burns less. <BR/><BR/>As to when people start aging, that's a philosophical as much as a physiological question. The answer is the same as the one to metabolisms, ... we are unique. You guys won't age at the same rate in the same way as I will. Any answer exceeding this simplicity would require its own blog. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you guys liked what you read. =DTinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03324791665870520927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818633770583247825.post-48194740157215287582009-02-20T18:02:00.000-08:002009-02-20T18:02:00.000-08:00Yeah, Cassie makes a good point about aging, that ...Yeah, Cassie makes a good point about aging, that is, unless your metabolic type can change in a lifetime--which I assume it cannot--people still gain weight when they get older even if, hypothetically, they eat exactly the same diet til they're old and gray.

I liked the furnace analogy and I'm sure Lindsey liked the props. Overlooking the plug at the conclusion, I also liked the link to obesity. <BR/><BR/>This initial topic has me wondering about metabolism over the course of one's lifetime. I agree that it is common sense that a person would have a specific metabolic type, but what about the effect of age on metabolism. The body goes through massive changes during puberty, is it fair to assume that biochemistry does too? This also has me wondering if and so when aging inevitably takes effect. Assuming all else equal, will a person at 25 have the same metabolism compared to when they are 40? or 60, 90..? The body will eventually decay, but can it be controlled? ..Other than the Dorian Gray technique that is.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17183221421236894570noreply@blogger.com
