The entire metabolic process is run by biological catalysts known as enzymes. They are long, chain-like protein molecules that are twisted into characteristic three-dimensional shapes. Enzyme molecule
s function rather like templates to hold reacting molecules together in the proper position to speed their interactions. If your enzymes lose their shape ("denature"), they stop functioning, your meta
bolism ceases, and you're dead. Birds are no different. That's why boiling kills; it denatures enzymes.

An increase metabolism provides many benefits to help maintain continuous and permanent weight loss:
-less exercise would be needed - giving you more time
-less effort if you did exercise - no n
eed to try burning lots of calories during each session!
-less chance of weight regain later
-still enjoy some favorite foods - no need to be as strict on the diet
-less time spent preparing
low / non fat recipes and meals
-save money from not needing to buy all the expensive low fat varieties
-more chance majority of weight loss is fat rather than water

Increase the metabolism for less chance of water weight loss!
-If more protein is lost more water is also lost because protein holds four times its weight in water. Think about if a person lost 5 p
ounds in a week, that would require an extra 17500 calories so how could all this weight possibly be fat. In fact over a week only about 1 pound of the 5 pounds lost would be fat, the rest would be mo
stly water!
-Protein and its fluid replacement is the main reason many dieters regain weight after a diet. Again think about if someone regained 4 pounds in a week then does it mean that person has
eaten an extra 14000 calories?
-Increasing the metabolism means the body has a reason to hold onto protein thus less water is lost

How does Human Metabolism Work? - Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)
-This is the amount of calories needed to run all essential functions and chemical reactions while in a rested and quiet state. RMR is
the largest part of total metabolism and accounts for 65 - 75% of calories burned in a day.
-If lean weight is lost from the body through increased protein metabolism the RMR decreases. This often
happens when people go on a strict diet, the body is forced into what's known as a "negative nitrogen balance" which means more protein is lost than what is replaced due to less protein/energy intake
. This imbalance causes a gradual loss in lean weight thus lowering the RMR.
-Many dieters limit the amount of lean weight loss with some type of intense exercise in order for muscles to develop a

The physical and chemical processes that maintain a life are called, collectively, its "metabolism." A flow of energy is required to run the metabolism of any organism, and the basic energy source for
all birds is the sun. Green plants "capture" the sun's energy in the process of photosynthesis, and birds then acquire it by eating plants or by eating other animals that eat plants. The energy is us
ed to do the work of building tissues, contracting muscles, manufacturing eggs, processing information in the brain, and powering all the other activities of a living bird

From the viewpoint of diet and weight loss, metabolism is the process whereby the body converts food into energy (or uses it for bodily repairs) or stores it as fat for future use. In simple terms, if
we have a faster metabolism we burn calories more efficiently and store less fat. If we have a slower metabolism we burn calories less efficiently and therefore store more calories as fat. In very si
mple terms, our Metabolic Rate is the rate (and efficiency) with which our body performs these metabolic tasks.
