Why can't some people get better?

Let's start with the fact that all people are different, and each person has several reasons for being both fat and thin. There are about a dozen such reasons, and imagine that each of these "reasons" is on the scales, adding points either to the side of the scales " completeness » or to the balance side « thinness ". As a rule, these reasons balance each other, leaving a slight advantage from the average value in one direction or another.

For example, consider 2 reasons - Lifestyle, and food. If a person’s lifestyle is sedentary, then we put this “reason” on the scales on the side “ completeness ". If a person leads an active lifestyle, goes in for sports, walks every day, then we put the “reason” on the scales marked “ thinness «.

Also with " nutrition“: if a person adheres to proper nutrition, then in this case we put the“ reason ”on the bowl“ thinness “If it eats harmful foods, then the“ reason ”is sent to the side“ completeness ". And the more harmful food a person eats, the more significant his “cause” will be. Thus, it may turn out that both of our "reasons" will be on the side of " thinness "but they can also be on the side of" completeness ". But it happens that some people seem to remain thin, while leading a rather inactive lifestyle, eating junk food, which, as it seems, should lead to fullness. Why is this happening? In fact, there are some other reasons that can sometimes tip the scales quite strongly on themselves, and which do not depend on a person’s lifestyle, or on his physical activity or nutrition. Let's look at some of the reasons why a person cannot get better.

genetic predisposition.

Being thin, as well as being fat, can be in our genes. This is why it is so difficult for some people to gain weight and for others to lose weight. Imagine our imaginary scales. If everyone in your family was fat or thin, then in order to change this, you will need more strength than other people, but you can always correct the state of affairs. Usually, genetic predisposition does not play a significant role in the distribution of a person's mass, but there are exceptions.

Body type.

There are several body types in humans. Scientists have noticed some relationships between height, weight, size and weight of bones, sizes between bones, and others, which make it possible to attribute the body of each person to a certain type of physique.

Asthenic physique. This is just the type of constitution in which a person has a fragile physique. People of this type have narrow hips and shoulders. It is difficult for such people to gain weight, both fat and muscle mass. They can spend a lot of time in the gym, adding incomparably little muscle mass.

Diseases.

An overactive thyroid or adrenal glands are often the cause of underweight.

But do not worry if you, having tried many means, cannot gain weight. Sometimes it's just a matter of time. Know that every ten years slows down your metabolism by about 5%. This means that in adulthood people are more likely to be overweight than in young people. And if you are still young, then your worries may be in vain.
