Metabolism is a process where the food you eat is converted into energy. Metabolism controls breathing, digests foods, and delivers nutrients to the cells. When the body doesn’t get the appropriate amount of energy it cannot function properly and eliminate the toxins from your body. 

As each body is different, several reasons can affect your metabolism that are age, gender, body temperature, hormones, body composition, etc. Other factors that are allergies, imbalances, inadequate intake of vitamins and minerals that can disturb your body’s metabolism which leads to health problems like obesity, diabetes, heart conditions, etc. Sometimes your body cannot be controlled with lifestyle changes so the doctor may prescribe medications to control your symptoms.
