How To Boost Your Metabolism

Some people think metabolism is a kind of organ, or a body part, that influences digestion. Actually, the metabolism isn’t a body part. Metabolism, is the process of transforming food (e. g. nutrients) into fuel (e. g. energy). The body uses this energy to conduct a vast array of essential functions. In fact, your ability to read this page is driven by your metabolism. If you had no metabolism you wouldn’t be able to move.
