What causes high metabolism? How could i normalise it?

Question

I eat a lot but still i'm very slim... i was told i have high metabolism and may be the reason of my thin body. So what does cause it?

This high metabolism is sucking all my flesh :( and I really want it to return to normal cuz i'd loved to get my curves back :)

Thanks for your comments!

Answer 1

Practically, the only way your metabolic rate can be adjusted is by altering the amount of strenuous excercise you do. Your body adjusts the way it uses food based on its pattern of usage. i.e. if your body is used to having food sit around and not being used, it doesn't need to metobolize it quickly, and vice versa).

That being said, if you are young, you may have a high metaboblic rate that will wane over time. So, be careful and don't try to fatten up too much now, b/c it will become much tougher to get rid of as you get older.

Answer 2

A quick absorption of nutrients into the body, which is actually quite healthy for you. Stick to your fruits and veggies and stuff.
