(New York) — If you’ve ever felt like your metabolism seems to be “asleep” after age 35, you’re not alone. Thousands of women swap coffee for green tea and cut calories, only to see the scale remain stuck.

It was this search for a more powerful solution that led researchers to Carmona, a small village in Spain.
