Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): BMR represents the number of calories your body needs at rest to maintain basic physiological functions
Thermic Effect of Food (TEF): TEF is the energy required to digest, absorb, and metabolize nutrients from food
Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE): TDEE is the total number of calories burned in a day, including BMR, physical activity,
Muscle Mass and Metabolism: Muscle tissue burns more calories than fat tissue, even at rest. Building and maintaining muscle mass
Metabolic Adaptation: Prolonged caloric restriction can lead to metabolic adaptation, where your metabolism slows down to conserve energy
Hormonal Influence: Hormones like insulin, leptin, and cortisol play a crucial role in regulating metabolism and fat storage
Impact of Physical Activity: Regular physical activity, including both aerobic and anaerobic exercises, increases calorie burn and boosts metabolism.
Role of Sleep: Quality sleep is essential for maintaining a healthy metabolism. Poor sleep can disrupt metabolic processes
