Aging women can diet without fear
There have been concerns regarding aging, dieting, and decreased muscle mass: that weight-loss later in life could make women in particular much weaker. But thankfully new research is showing that although some muscle is lost when aging women diet and lose weight without exercising, they show no decline in strength or general fitness. And not only was there no decline, but fitness was almost on the way up for the women in the study.The slight improvements in fitness were so small they weren't statistically important, and the researchers are attributing them to the weight loss and the fact that the women are just less heavy overall. But although this study did not take into account situations of unintentional weight loss, this is still awesome news to support the fact that it's never to too late to make an effort to get healthy.
