Women accumulate abdominal fat as we age due to changes in the body over the years. This occurs relatively frequently, although, of course, it does not affect all women equally, but it also affects men, although for other reasons.
According to experts, the accumulation of abdominal fat is not due, as a general rule, to bad habits, but rather it is a natural phenomenon. So there’s no reason to feel guilty. It should be accepted naturally, yes, you have to take care to prevent it from getting older.
There are also other reasons such as lack of exercise, stress, sleep problems or having a poor diet. Over the years, muscle mass weakens. Most of the energy consumption that our body makes goes to those muscles, so if we exercise them less, which is common with age, we have more calories in the body, since we burn less of them.
Menopause is another factor that causes the accumulation of abdominal fat. Although this phenomenon also affects the male gender, it is more frequent in women.
