Glucose Metabolism
Glucose metabolism involves two main paths: one aerobic and one anaerobic. The oxygen-based or aerobic process, results in the creation of more energy, 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 any scientific explanations, [...]
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 it may have become obvious for many of us, when going to [...]
Drug Metabolism
The sum of biochemical reactions through which medicines are transformed and absorbed into the body is referred to as drug metabolism. The passage of the drugs through the body is very important for the very effect expected from a certain treatment. Drugs nevertheless, are created in such a way so as to correspond to the [...]
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. First of all, what is cholesterol? Medical dictionaries explain that this fat normally found in blood, results from eating animal-based foods. This substance is [...]
Weight Loss Metabolism
There is a direct connection between weight loss and metabolism. Fortunately, as long as there are no medical complications which would obviously require medical expertise, metabolism can be enhanced to burn more calories and at a higher speed. We are not aiming at presenting sophisticated methods or the latest ones in the field. On the [...]
Nutrition Metabolism
Nutrition metabolism problems that result in real eating disorders are health issues that affect a huge number of people worldwide. The most common of the nutrition metabolism imbalances is overeating, and most of the time, obesity appears because a person eats more than he or she burns in the various body activities. Plus, people [...]
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
Many people nowadays suffer from obesity due to 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 can better be conducted under [...]
Metabolism Supplements
There are lots of health conditions that trouble people to different degrees. One of this is the slow inefficient metabolism. Of course there are different ways to remedy this type of problem whose most visible and upsetting effect is weight gain. You can help yourself to improve your metabolism by taking vitamins or supplements which [...]
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. The first thought about metabolism is that of fat burning, or this is what the average individual understands from it. This may be quite natural since our new generation does [...]
Metabolism Diet
The concept of metabolic diet refers to the burning of the fat deposits while preserving a good nutritional pattern. In contrast with a harsh diet that can be easily considered a form of self-imposed starvation, in a metabolism diet all the body needs are satisfied by the macro-nutrients taken from food without impairing the organ [...]
Metabolism Boosters
The need for metabolism boosters has become more obvious with an apparently paradoxical discovery. Crash diets are inefficient, this is a first thing you should know, because the less you eat, the slower the metabolism becomes, and you burn almost nothing of the fat deposits. The problem with crash diets is that they force the [...]
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
It has become common practice to blame a slow metabolism when we gain weight or when we cannot lose the extra pounds. And it seems that the best solution to fight back slow metabolic reactions is by coming up with ways to increase metabolism. Fortunately, expert advice could prove helpful for regaining a good health [...]
