Metabolism and Your Weight.

What exactly is metabolism?

It is hard to believe, but some people think that metabolism is an organ in the body, like the liver or the heart. Well, it is certainly a part of the body, actually a combination of all the chemical processes in the system that helps to keep you alive and your organs functioning efficiently.

Metabolism also has an effect on your weight, and people who have difficulty losing weight are inclined to blame it on a slow metabolism rate.

They could be putting the blame in the wrong place!

It is not your metabolism that is keeping you from losing weight.

Worldwide studies have not found any evidence to support the theory of a difficulty losing weight because of a slow metabolism. You cannot speed up metabolism, as it is not a thing on its own, but a process which has an effect on every part of the body. Your metabolism relating to weight and burning calories, may not be working as efficiently as it should be, and it may be part of the reason why you are struggling to lose weight.

There can be a variety of reasons why this particular part of your metabolism may not be working to its full potential. This includes a lack of exercise, and incorrect eating habits. There are also the important emotional issues, where constant failures in your weight loss efforts have eroded your confidence in your ability to successfully lose weight.
