Hello to the energy! Let’s explore together what the metabolism means in humans and how we can stimulate it in the best case.
As you can probably already guess, today we are dealing with the metabolism in humans. We want to look at what human metabolism actually means and what is meant by good and bad metabolism. We would also like to take a look at how you can easily look at your own metabolism in order to ultimately achieve even more energy. In addition, we take a look at the exact definition of the term metabolism, as there are often misunderstandings which occur. We at Medicross Labs wish you a lot of fun reading and a pleasant winter time!
Understand and train your own metabolism
Before we deal extensively with the topic, let’s first take a look at what the term metabolism actually means in the human context. The term metabolism is often equated with human digestion. However, this is not entirely correct. The metabolism, which is also called metabolism, is ultimately the basis for all processes that take place in your body and are life-relevant. So when we talk about metabolism, we mean the biochemical processes that take place in your cells. But what exactly is meant by that? When we speak of the biochemical processes that take place in your body and in your cells, we ultimately mean that the individual components of the food that you have consumed are now being changed. This includes dismantling, rebuilding and assembling new parts.
This means that your body is doing great tasks every day. Every day he ensures that all processes can go ahead and that everything works as intended. So your body sustains itself. He achieves this by using the nutrients, minerals as well as vitamins and trace elements that you take in through the food you consume and converting them. If it does not receive the necessary vitamins and substances, your body automatically falls back on your reserves. For people who cannot cover their nutritional needs with their own food, we recommend personalized dietary supplements , which you can also find in our shop. Because all of these vitamins and substances mentioned above are relevant so that your body can conscientiously carry out the processes and functions. Your body can only function properly if all the relevant minerals are present.
Did you also know that in addition to all the minerals, vitamins and trace elements, enzymes and hormones are also relevant for the human metabolism? Ultimately, the process of metabolism in humans is directed by the nervous system and the hormonal system. In addition, the liver is considered to be the most important metabolic organ that humans have.
What does my metabolism have to do with my digestion?
Whether you have a good metabolism or a bad one can depend on various factors . Many people also do sport to boost their metabolism and to have a positive effect on it. What is often forgotten, however, is the fact that your diet also plays a role when it comes to your metabolism and digestion. You are certainly already aware that your body needs energy in order to be able to conscientiously carry out all of its processes and tasks. You get this energy mentioned above, or rather your body gets it, by consuming carbohydrates, proteins and also fats, which contain macronutrients. However, it is a common misconception that your digestion should be equated with your metabolism.
It is true that your digestion is ultimately also decisive for your metabolism, it forms the basis or premise for the metabolism, so to speak. However, metabolism does not mean digestion. The nutrients that you take in through your food are reduced in size in your stomach and intestines and broken down into their individual parts. But which nutritional values provide which vitamins? An excellent question! The fact is that your body produces simple sugars from the carbohydrates, your body makes amino acids from the proteins that you consume and the fat that you consume is converted into fatty acids and glycerides. Why is this even happening? Your body, or more precisely your intestines, can only use the nutrients you ingest from food if they have been chopped up and mislaid. Therefore, your body ensures that the nutrients it has absorbed are broken down into their smallest components so that your intestines can easily absorb them and then transfer them to your blood.
In the bloodstream, the broken down nutrients now swim through your body and are directed into the right cells.
Is my metabolism good or too high?
There are various signs that indicate that your metabolism is either too high or is functioning very normally as usual. We’d like to take a closer look at these signs in the following blog articles. Nevertheless, we would like to give you some tips today that might help you improve your metabolism. Because, even when it comes to your own digestion and metabolism, your diet and sufficient exercise play a major role. Water is especially important when it comes to human metabolism. Therefore, try to drink at least 1.5 to 2 liters of water every day. You should also allow yourself enough exercise so that your body can enjoy the fresh air on the one hand and is sufficiently exercised and exhausted on the other. Because sport is also crucial for the metabolism and its tasks.
Many people also ask, “Do I have a fast metabolism?”. This question cannot always be answered quickly and in general. However, there are various symptoms that can indicate that you have a fast metabolism. If you find it difficult to maintain or gain weight, even though you are already quite heavy and regular, it could be that you have a fast metabolism. An increased body temperature in normal situations can also be a sign of an increased metabolism. Increased hunger and also greater appetite than usual also mean that your metabolism is slightly higher than normal.
