What Is Metabolism and How to Activate It?

What Is Metabolism and How to Activate It?


We have heard a lot about metabolism. For example, those people who tend to gain weight have a slower metabolism, and that it is necessary to do sports to accelerate it. Or that our metabolism depends on a genetic issue. But what is metabolism? How does it work? How does it change with age? We will discuss in brief about metabolism in this blog.

To some extent, those statements may be true. We are going to share some of the aspects that you must understand if you want to activate your metabolism and make it start working in your favour.

What is metabolism?

Although metabolism is the set of processes by which living organisms build (anabolism) and destroy (catabolism) molecules, in simple language, metabolism is the process by which our cells transform the food we consume into energy. This is commonly called " burning calories." Even when we are at rest, our body needs a certain amount of energy, for circulation, respiration, etc.

The number of calories we need at rest is called the Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR).

The more active our metabolism, the more calories we will burn at rest, and the more quickly those we consume with food will be processed.

What factors affect metabolism?

We already anticipated some of them. For example, metabolism is determined, in some way, by genetics. Not all organisms can process calories as quickly. Another important factor is age. As we are getting older, metabolism of our body also slows down.

The latter is due to the fact that, with age, we lose muscle mass, which causes fat to occupy a greater percentage of our weight. The lower the muscles, the fewer calories we will burn. Diets also affect. Someone who does a lot of dieting, can put their metabolism to sudden changes.

The good news is that physical activity is also a factor, and a very important one, that affects our metabolism. It is proven that the sports or exercises that we do in our day-to-day life help us turn and burn more calories. And of course, diet is also a key factor.

How to activate our metabolism?

The first thing is physical activity. Try to do some physical exercise or play any kind of sports. The reason is logical: Any kind of exercise helps us to develop muscle mass, that is why our body will need to burn more calories and convert them into the energy we need, even while at rest.

This brings us to the second point. The exercise will motivate us to healthier eating. To maintain our physical state, we will need to consume foods with a high vitamin and protein level. The junk food makes us feel heavier and slower.

In this sense, it is also better to avoid processed foods, which lack the necessary nutrients for the proper functioning of our body. Likewise, it is advisable to avoid sugar, since it affects the rate at which our body stores fat.

Also keep in mind that it is in the morning when your metabolism is most active, so try to eat a good breakfast every day in the morning and skip your breakfast (remember that your body has been burning calories while you were sleeping). But if you train in the morning, it is advisable to always do it on an empty stomach.

On the contrary, try not to eat a lot at night. Since at the end of the day your body slows down to process calories. It is best not to eat anything for at least two hours before going to bed. And try to stay hydrated, not just when you do exercise, but throughout the day.

Finally, remember that the activation of our metabolism does not happen overnight. It is a process in which it is necessary to know our body and have patience. And as always, a nutritionist can be very helpful.

05-June-2020 - Friday Morning Long Drive After Long Time

मैं पेशेवर काम कर रहा हूं, मेरा जीवन बहुत व्यस्त है। अगर आप मेरी रोजाना की दिनचर्या के बारे में जानना चाहते हैं, तो मेरे ब्लॉग को रोजाना पढ़ें। आज शुक्रवार सुबह, मैं लगभग 5:30 बजे उठा, फिर बालकनी में गया और देखा कि मौसम बहुत अच्छा है। लॉन्ग ड्राइव के लिए 3 महीने के लॉकडाउन के बाद अचानक प्लान किया। फिर मैंने अपनी कार की चाबी ली और सुबह 6 बजे के करीब नीचे चला गया। मैंने अपनी कार शुरू की और लगभग 100 किमी के लॉग ड्राइव के लिए चला गया। मैंने इस 3 महीने में बहुत सारे बदलाव देखे, पर्यावरण बहुत साफ है, सड़क खाली थी इसलिए मैंने अपनी ड्राइविंग का आनंद लिया। मैंने 25 किमी की ड्राइविंग के बाद एक जगह पर कार रोकी, फिर खुले वातावरण में 1 किमी दौड़ लगाई। बहुत समय बाद मैंने खुली जगह पर दौड़ लगाई। जाते समय सड़क खाली थी, लेकिन घर लौटते समय सड़क पर कुछ लोगों और वाहनों को देखा। आउटिंग के तीन घंटे बाद आखिरकार 9 बजे के आसपास घर पहुंचा। फिर स्नान किया कुछ ब्रेड स्लाइस के साथ एक कप चाय ली और मेरी सुबह की गतिविधि समाप्त की।                                                                 ------------------------

My running journey from 0 km to 5 km

                    My running journey started in  2017,  when I started facing minor health glitches . In 2016, I went for my medical check-up and I also want to have a medical certificate, which is mandatory for Schengen   Visa processing as I had an official  trip planned for Sweden. I gave a blood sample for tests and after the report came, I couldn't believe that I have high cholesterol and thyroid. I went to another hospital for my check-up and got the same report there also. Till then I was always thinking that I will never suffer with this kind of disease as I was a sports person during my school days. But I forgot one thing that after 2010 I stopped all my games and exercises.                 After that I was very much distressed and started thinking about my health. I started walking daily then one day I saw one person running, when I was walking on the road. I also tried to run but was not able to run even for 500 meters and stopped .                 From the next day on
