I mean, I get that having a fast metabolism means that you get fat harder and vice versa, but what does it exactly mean? And what are the upsides and downsides of each?
In: Biology
The process at which you convert food to energy is what our metabolism is responsible for so faster obviously needs less time to convert to ATP (energy) and vice versa. It’s not uncommon for people with slow metabolic rates to be overweight because the body is inefficient at converting food to fuel, and will opt to store the food (as bodyfat) instead of using it all for ATP.
