This is caused from eating too much, not a decline in “metabolism”

So, the combination of the research and my anecdotes - and your response seems to be

That by our early 20s our metabolism has already slowed (sugary food, alcohol, precipitous drop in activity)

  • No, our metabolism isn't "slow" (for 99% of people). People just start eating much more and moving much less.

Insulin resistance and PCOS absolutely have effects on metabolism. It’s very well studied.
