Metabolism

Metabolism is the means by which the body derives energy and synthesizes the other molecules it needs from the fats, carbohydrates and proteins we consume, using enzymatic reactions helped by minerals and vitamins. Metabolism consists both of anabolism and catabolism (the buildup and breakdown of substances, respectively). The term is commonly used to refer specifically to the breakdown of food and its transformation into energy.  In simple terms, metabolism is the rate at which an individual body uses energy and burns calories. Metabolism varies from person to person.  

An individual’s caloric needs are determined by two factors: level of physical activity and resting metabolic rate (RMR).  Roughly one-third of the calories the body burns are the result of physical activity, which includes anything other than resting.  The remaining two-thirds, RMR, are burned as a result of regular metabolic activity. This includes the calories used to sustain basic body functions such as maintaining body temperature, heartbeat, breathing, organ repair and basic chemical reactions.  Because RMR accounts for a large majority of calories burned, keeping it high is essential to losing weight and keeping it off.
