All people have different rates of metabolism at various periods of their lives. Younger people typically have higher rates, which is why they seem to eat a whole lot of food yet remain slim and trim. The metabolism rate accounts for the number of calories they burn, and the number of calories taken in, as opposed to the number expended, determines if they gain or lose weight. As a person ages, his rate of metabolism typically slows down, and the person might put on weight even though he is not overeating, due to a slower rate of metabolism.

Is it truue that if you dont eat you gan waight?

Your metabolism is responsible for burning calories. It adjusts depending on how much you eat each day. For example, if you eat 3000 calories every day, your metabolism adjusts to start burning 3000 calories every day. So if you don't eat, your metabolism pretty much shuts off and the next time you eat, it will take time to change, and therefore every calorie you ate will be stored as fat. This is the reason diets don't work very well, people limit their calorie intake, which slows down the rate of their metabolism. The metabolisms slows down when someone eats less food because the body perceives this as someone not having access to enough food, it's called 'Survival Mode.'
