There is a relationship between one’s metabolism and weight loss. Completing a metabolic typing assessment to determine your metabolic type will enable you to customize a healthy and successful diet for your type. Eating contrary to your metabolic type can cause your body to store unwanted and unnecessary fat. Eating for your metabolic type can cause your body to burn excess unwanted fat. A Quick Lesson on MetabolismWe’re not going to get deep into the science here because this is not a college course on the metabolic process. The basic understanding here is that we believe that knowing what your metabolic type is greatly affects your ability to lose weight and inches and keep it off for the long term.Metabolism* is the set of chemical reactions that occur in living organisms to maintain life. These processes allow organisms to grow and reproduce, maintain their structures, and respond to their environments. Metabolism is usually divided into two categories. Catabolism breaks down organic matter, for example to harvest energy in cellular respiration. Anabolism, on the other hand, uses energy to construct components of cells such as proteins and nucleic acids. The chemical reactions of metabolism are organized into metabolic pathways, in which one chemical is transformed into another by a sequence of enzymes. Enzymes are crucial to metabolism because they allow organisms to drive desirable but thermodynamically unfavorable reactions by coupling them to favorable ones, and because they act as catalysts to allow these reactions to proceed quickly and efficiently. Enzymes also allow the regulation of metabolic pathways in response to changes in the cell's environment or signals from other cells. The metabolism of an organism determines which substances it will find nutritious and which it will find poisonous. The speed of metabolism, the metabolic rate, also influences how much food an organism will require. And, we would ad, the types of food. *Free Metabolic Typing Lesson from Wikipedia Take The Survey!
