How does the human body work?
Your metabolism, or resting metabolic rate, is the number of calories you burn when you’re not doing anything (think sitting, lying, sleeping). These calories are used to do things that are necessary for life, like breathing, blood circulation, and getting oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body.
Up to 70% of the calories, you burn every day come from your metabolism. The more calories you burn, the faster your metabolism is. This means you might be able to eat more calories than someone your height and still keep your weight in check. And if you’re on a diet, this means you might be able to eat more calories to help you lose weight, which will make you happier and less hungry. So it makes sense that people want a “fast” metabolism.
