Glucose Metabolism

Glucose metabolism involves two main paths: one aerobic and one anaerobic. The aerobic process, or the one that requires oxygen, generates more energy for the body, while with the other, the transformation of glucose is carried out in the absence of air resulting in a moderate energy production. In order to understand glucose metabolism without [...]

Fat Metabolism

Although they do not fully understand what it means, people often use the term of fat metabolism. Medically speaking, it makes reference to the biochemical process based on which fatty acids and substances get integrated and are used by the cells of the body. Fatty acids get into our body in the form of tryglicerides [...]

Energy Metabolism

The chemical reactions that turn food into energy represent the body energy metabolism. Only 20% of this total amount of energy is retained by our body around twenty percent, the rest of it being used to function or released as heat. As you may have noticed, when going to the gym and working out [...]

Drug Metabolism

Drug metabolism consists of the sum of the biochemical processes through which medication is transformed by enzymes into substances that can be absorbed in the body system. The course of treatment and its efficiency very much depend on the way the system receives and tolerates the medication. Drugs nevertheless, are created in such a way [...]

Cholesterol Metabolism

In order to define cholesterol metabolism we ougth to explain several notions for a better understanding. The effects, causes and possible problems that may be related to cholesterol require special attention. What do we understand by cholesterol? Medical dictionaries explain that this fat normally found in blood, results from eating animal-based foods. The substance is [...]

Weight Loss Metabolism

There is a direct connection between weight loss and metabolism. Fortunately, in the conditions of an otherwise good health, there are a lot of things you can do to make your metabolism more efficient and to lose weight as well.

Nutrition Metabolism

Lots of people have to face nutrition metabolism problems that are often combined with psychological or emotional disorders. The most common of the nutrition metabolism imbalances is overeating, and in the majority of cases, obesity results because a person eats more than he or she burns in the various body activities. Plus, people with [...]

Metabolism Weight

Are there ways through which metabolism weight loss can be achieved faster? There should be since we live in a fast age, right? The good news for those whose metabolism is not efficient enough is that solutions for weight loss are within immediate unless there is a medical condition that prevents metabolism from working properly. [...]

Metabolism Vitamins

The millions of people who suffer from obesity are in fact fighting against an inefficient metabolism. The moment you notice your weight tends to grow too much it is time for you to do something. Diets, physical training programs or nutritional suppmements intake serve well for the purpose of boosting up the metabolism. All these [...]

Metabolism Supplements

A slow and inefficient metabolism is bothersome and difficult to approach sometimes. The most visible and upsetting of the consequences of a deficient metabolism is weight gain or obesity. Pharmaceutical companies may come to your help with an offer of vitamins and metabolism supplements that could help to weight loss. In this article, the focus [...]

Metabolism Study

Metabolism study has sparked quite an interest in some specialists as they want to see exactly how to correlate people’s daily habits with their health. When hearing the word metabolism, the ordinary individual thinks about burning fat. This may be quite natural since our new generation does indeed need more exercise and healthy nutrition although [...]

Metabolism Diet

Although there are several dietary programs known under the name of metabolic or metabolism diet, the general concept of such a weight loss pattern refers to the possibility to burn calories without depleting the body of nutrients. In contrast with a harsh diet that can be easily considered a form of self-imposed starvation, in a [...]

Metabolism Boosters

The need for metabolism boosters has become more obvious with an apparently paradoxical discovery. People who start crash diets and drastically reduce the number of calories, lose a few pounds in the beginning of the diet, and then, the scales suddenly stops moving in the direction you’d like. The problem with crash diets is that [...]

Lipid Metabolism

Metabolism is the sum of chemical reactions/processes which occur in living bodies and whose aim is to maintain life; this means growing, reproduction, maintaining the organisms structures and responding to their environments adequately. Metabolism has usually two phases: anabolism relies on energy to produce cellular components such as nucleic acids and protein; on the other [...]

Increase Metabolism

Slow metabolism is often blamed for improper or insufficient weight loss as well as for obesity. And it seems that the best solution to fight back slow metabolic reactions is by coming up with ways to increase metabolism. Fortunately, there are experts in the field who are capable of helping you with all the knowledge [...]
