Why are people over the age of 40 so bad at video games?

Probably not. Saving up my disability for yoga instruction.

Because as you get older, neural connections begin to decay, you don't make decisions as fast anymore, you don't retain as much useless knowledge so remembering metas, rotations, and etc becomes something you need intent and focus to do instead of doing passively.

Nows the age when vitamins and such really come in handy. 35 here, dreading the coming storm.

Yeah. 38.

Feel like a corpse.

Can only hang a few hrs and even then. A lot of distractions. And it takes its toll.

Ditch the carbs and you'll feel like you're 20 again (or maybe 25).

Or just burn them. Carbs only become healthy for sedentary people. Otherwise they (at least complex carbs) are a great healthy source of energy

The truth is that at some point you start to realize there is more to life than playing games.

Not in my experience.

Carbs are an EASY source of energy, but they make your blood sugar level spike, whatever your level of activity is, and that's not only bad for your body (fat formation), it also makes you feel bad and tired each time that spike is over and you crave a new one. Most people are just used to it and don't know there's another way. USA is struggling with obesity while advocating a carb-rich diet, which is nonsense.

For someone obese to durably lose a lot weight while eating mostly carbs, they'd need to drastically cut the intake amount (= feel hungry 24/7), and split that intake in many many small daily meals, so blood sugar remains kinda stable (= impossible to sustain for a normal person).

We, humans, have been selected over millions of years feeding on fat, protein and very little carbs. Try to get carbs during the winter times anywhere north of Africa. Not an easy task, no fruit, no berries, nothing is growing. You hunt a rabbit or you die.

There definitely never were packs of sliced bread growing on trees.

Quit the carbs and enjoy a life of plentiful energy and good mood from the moment you wake up to the moment you fall asleep.
