Why Men Lose Weight Faster Than Women Feb 4, 2017 6:08 pm |

Believe it or not, men do have a competitive edge when it comes to losing weight, its just in their DNA both physical and cultural. More often than not, men tends to lose weight faster because they have more muscle mass. However, as unfair as it may seem research shows that men lose weight faster than women.

Here are reasons why men lose weight faster

Men typically have between 40 per cent and 60 per cent more muscle structure than women. And because muscles burn more fuel than your other parts (organs, bone, stored fat), men have a built-in ability to burn fat more quickly than women. Thats one reason weight exercises are so important , especially for women. Build more muscle, burn more fat.

Men seem to be better able at shaking off their stress. Socially, they are conditioned to burn it off physically, to fix it and move on. Typically, guys can get into a fight in the morning, then go shoot hoops in the afternoon because they are over it and dont hold on to things like girls do. That means men generally produce fewer stress hormones that can inhibit weight loss and contribute to excess fat storage, especially in the belly.

Because women produce more estrogen than men (yes, men do produce estrogen), women are more affected by the estrogen-mimicking properties of soy and dairy, which can contribute to weight gain. (Read more on soy and plant estrogens.) Because of their very hormonal makeup, men are just better able to metabolize these and avoid their effects.

Its said that women start their first diet at 14 while men start theirs at 40. For many women, dieting during adolescence wreaks havoc during this fragile time of hormonal development. So mens metabolisms arent usually as broken down in the first place.

I have spoken to so many of my doctor friends about this. I get many referrals from doctors for their male patients, with strict instructions to drop 20, 40 or even 60 pounds right away. I even got an actual prescription written to me with a referral on it. It said I want him down 30 lbs. before follow up visit.
