What is fast metabolism?


Question:


Answers:
Your metabolism is not only how quickly your body breaks down food into energy, but how quickly your body burns that energy.

People with a high metabolism, usually burn more energy per pound of body weight. This is good in that it usually limits the amount of fat build-up in your body (all the food is burned as energy instead of converted to fat). If you under-eat with a fast metabolism you can cause it to slow down artificially and this can make you feel sick, tired and just off.

However, several side effects of fast metabolism is that your natural resting heart rate may be abnormally high. This is not something to be alarmed about, but it does mean your heart is working harder than normal, so a healthy diet and exercise is even more important to maintain a healthy heart.

Metabolism (from μεταβολισμος ("metabolismos")) is the biochemical modification of chemical compounds in living organisms and cells. This includes the biosynthesis of complex organic molecules (anabolism) and their breakdown (catabolism). Metabolism usually consists of sequences of enzymatic steps, also called metabolic pathways. The total metabolism are all biochemical processes of an organism. The cell metabolism includes all chemical processes in a cell.The Dynamic Energy Budget theory aims to quantify the metabolic organisation of individual organisms; many species are unicellular.
fast metabolism is when food digests in your system faster and fat burns faster too.
