This is just a general guide. To use it, you need to figure out your specific calorie needs based on your weight, age, and current activity level. Again, see the 40’s nutrition section for how to calculate your personal calorie requirements.
As you get older the amount of calories you need to survive starts to decline. This is because you are losing muscle and gaining more fat as the years roll by. You can change that by exercising and building muscle.
Of course you can’t exercise very well if you put terrible food into that amazing body of yours.
