From the viewpoint of diet and weight loss, metabolism is the process whereby the body converts food into energy (or uses it for bodily repairs) or stores it as fat for future use. In simple terms, if
we have a faster metabolism we burn calories more efficiently and store less fat. If we have a slower metabolism we burn calories less efficiently and therefore store more calories as fat. In very si
mple terms, our Metabolic Rate is the rate (and efficiency) with which our body performs these metabolic tasks.

An increase metabolism provides many benefits to help maintain continuous and permanent weight loss:
-less exercise would be needed - giving you more time
-less effort if you did exercise - no n
eed to try burning lots of calories during each session!
-less chance of weight regain later
-still enjoy some favorite foods - no need to be as strict on the diet
-less time spent preparing
low / non fat recipes and meals
-save money from not needing to buy all the expensive low fat varieties
-more chance majority of weight loss is fat rather than water

Increasing the metabolism is the fastest way to permanent weight loss, a lowered metabolism is very often the reason weight loss progress grinds to a sudden halt. When weight loss slows a dieter may r
educe food intake further, however progress is still slow because a net loss of protein continues to lower the metabolism.

The entire metabolic process is run by biological catalysts known as enzymes. They are long, chain-like protein molecules that are twisted into characteristic three-dimensional shapes. Enzyme molecule
s function rather like templates to hold reacting molecules together in the proper position to speed their interactions. If your enzymes lose their shape ("denature"), they stop functioning, your meta
bolism ceases, and you're dead. Birds are no different. That's why boiling kills; it denatures enzymes.

How does Human Metabolism Work?- Physical activity
The amount of energy the body burns during daily activities such as exercise, recreation, work, housework, etc. Daily physical activities accoun
t for 20 - 40% of calories burned each day. This part will vary depending on the individual and how active they are each day. A sedentary person will require less calories to maintain weight than a bu
sy worker in a construction site!

living things must have an unceasing supply of energy and matter. The transformation of this energy and matter within the body is called metabolism.
-Catabolism
-Catabolism is destructive metab
olism. Typically, in catabolism, larger organic molecules are broken down into smaller constituents. This usually occurs with the release of energy (usually as ATP).
-Anabolism
-Anabolism is co
nstructive metabolism. Typically, in anabolism, small precursor molecules are assembled into larger organic molecules. This always requires the input of energy (often as ATP).
