Weight Gain After 40? This Dietary Supplement Could Help

Experts highlight hormonal shifts and gut health disruption as key drivers of midlife weight gain, with over 31,600 women reporting benefits from targeted supplements.

  • Experts say hormones rather than calories cause midlife weight gain, with many women over 40 gaining weight despite eating less.
  • As oestrogen declines in perimenopause, the body alters responses to insulin and cortisol, flipping metabolism from burning to storing energy, especially around the midsection.
  • Severe calorie restriction, skipped meals and relentless exercise raise cortisol and stress, while gut-health support may improve hormones; Happy Mammoth says over 31,643 women used Hormone Harmony, a 100% natural supplement.
  • Instead of fighting biology, metabolic retraining recommends calming stress, stabilising blood sugar, and prioritising protein and fibre to encourage energy release.
  • This reframing aims to reduce self-blame for women affected by midlife weight changes, though the article includes editorial disclosure of commission on promoted products.
