Do thin people have a faster metabolism than fatter ones?
The answer will amaze you: but it is absolutely not certain that those who are thin consume more calories with their basal metabolism than those who have a few extra pounds. On the contrary. He may also have a slower metabolism.
Let’s see why in this article.

DO THIN PEOPLE HAVE FASTER METABOLISM?

  • Basal metabolic rate depends on body mass.
    Those who are fatter therefore need more calories than those who are thin. This is what Martin Binks , director of the Nutrition & Metabolic Health Initiative at Texas Tech University explains.
    If two people stayed in bed all day, the thinner one would burn less energy.
  • However, there is a difference in the breakdown between lean and fat mass.
    Fat mass burns about 2 to 4 calories per pound. The lean one (fat free mass) depends: it can burn an average of 10 to 26 calories per kilo.
    Therefore a lean but muscular person burns more than a person with the same weight but more fat mass.
  • Daily physical activity affects the total metabolism for a percentage ranging from 15 to 30% of energy expenditure.
  • Non-activity related thermogenesis, or Neat, is how much the body burns in daily micro-movements . A thin person who has a high Neat burns more than one who moves little. Neat can have a big impact on your metabolism. Some people can burn as much as two thousand calories if they have an accentuated Neat. Learn more about Neat in this article. From these four considerations we understand that it is not said that those who are thin have a faster metabolism. To these items, however, is added that of genetic variables.
    In fact, it has been shown that naturally thin people can be genetically advantaged, that is, not having those genetic peculiarities that lead them to gain weight. However, this possible genetic advantage is not a sentence for someone who is overweight. 

    Conclusion.
    No, thin people don’t necessarily have a metabolic advantage.
    They can also be thin because they eat less and between neat and physical activity they are less sedentary.
