After 40, it is worth developing a few morning habits for a long life, said nutritionist Mary Sabat.

She called regular physical exercise in the morning the most important factor in losing weight in old age. She advised combining cardio (walking, jogging, or cycling) with strength training.

According to Sabat, it is important for people over 40 to build muscle mass through exercise, as it tends to decrease with age.

After 40, she continued, you also need to develop new eating habits — breakfast should include lean proteins, whole grains, healthy fats, and plenty of fruits and vegetables.

“Protein-rich foods require a lot of energy to digest and provide satiety, while whole foods maintain blood sugar levels, preventing a slowdown in metabolism,” Sabat explained.

Finally, the nutritionist emphasized, mental health cannot be neglected, as chronic stress leads to hormonal imbalance, which negatively affects metabolism and contributes to weight gain. She recommended managing stress through meditation, deep breathing, yoga, or a favorite hobby, which can be done in the morning or at any time of the day.
