Metabolism – the body’s ability to burn fat
Metabolism is directly involved, essential in maintaining the life of organisms and plants. Metabolism is the totality of the biochemical and energy transformations that take place in our body. Metabolism is a complex process, involving exchanges of matter and energies and involving two simultaneous but opposite processes: catabolism and anabolism.
Catabolism (disassimilation ), represents the totality of chemical processes of degradation of substances in the body. This is where the bonds between carbon atoms in the molecules of different substances break down, producing the release of energy.
Anabolism (assimilation ), is the chemical processes of biosynthesis of substances that make up living matter. Anabolic reactions are characterized this time by energy consumption.
