I believe you have a spelling error there. The "a" and the "t" are transposed, meaning they have wrongly switched places. The correct word is "metabolism" which is defined as the enzymatic beakdown of more complex substances into the more simple forms. A good example is glucose, a sugar, is metabolized to carbon dioxide and water, and in the process also giving off energy.

Here is what you need to do, if you are serious about losing weight and keeping it off. Eat 6 small meals a day about every 4 hours. Here what that will do for you, your metabolism will increase (i.e. Loose weight) and you will have more engry. If you go on a diet and eat less, your metabolism will slow down and store to fat. That is why diets dont work. Only the size of your fist, carbs (examples:baked potato, pasta, oatmeal, beans, corn, melon, apples, fat free yogurt, whole wheat breads)in one and protien (examples:chicken breast, swordfish, shrimp, turkey breast) in the other. You can also eat vegetables and salads with any meal, they dont have none or little fat). 30min cardo exercise every day. Any of these(examples: walking, jogging, swimming,running, biking, ect), Monday cardo, tues upper body (arms: curls, tricep extensions,pull ups, front press)(abdominals: leg pull crunch, leg raises), (chest: bench press, butterfly, pullover)(shoulders: front press, arm pullover, cross county skier machine)(back:seated row, lat pull downs, back extension)(YOU DONT HAVE TO DO IN ONE DAY, mix it up) wed cardo, thurs lower body (legs: leg pull,leg press, squats, lounges) fri cardo, sat upper. Sunday eat anything you want and dont exercising, you do this on sunday so your body doesnt go into starvation mode. YOU NEED TO TAKE SUNDAY OFF. If you stilck with this you will have a great body. also drink aleast 8oz of water daily! Stay away from Mcdonals, Wendys, ect because there is nothing good for you on the menu's even the salads are bad (beaon bits, cheeze, dressing, ect) Good Luck :)

I think you mean metabolism. Your metabolism is what burns calories in your body to give you energy. Some people have slow metabolisms, which means food is processed slowly and such people need to watch the caloric intake less they gain excessive weight. Others have fast metabolism which means the body processes food very quickly; such people usually need to eat more just to maintain a healthy weight.

Its a term that applies to the rate at which your body burns calories or energy. Generally most peoples metabolism is higher or burns More energy when they are younger than when they are older. Exercise can affect your metabolism by speeding it up or making it burn at a higher or faster rate- burn more calories or energy.
When you sleep at night you still use some energy but its trace amount, during sleep your body slips into whats called your basil metabolic rate. Your body is burning a very minimal amount of energy or calories during this time.
