  1. Metabolic age

    unreferenced date March 2011 Metabolic Age refers to a number calculated by comparing your Basal Metabolic Rate to the Basal Metabolic Rate average of your chronological age group. Chronological age is your age in calendar years. Basal metabolic rate is the amount of energy consumed per unit of time when all environmental factors are considered neutral, the digestive system is in a post absorptive state meaning that the digestive system is inactive, which requires about twelve hours of fasting in humans , and the energy expenditure is only sufficient to support normal functioning of the vital organs, the heart, lungs, nervous system, kidneys, liver, intestine, sex organs, muscles, and skin. Formulas for calculating basal metabolic rate take into account age, weight, height, activity level, body fat mass, and lean body mass. All the components in the body require various levels of energy to be maintained. Body fat requires much less energy than lean muscle, as lean muscle is much more metabolically active. Muscle is much more metabolically active, and therefore requires more energy expenditure to remain in homeostasis. If comparing two individuals, with all variables being equal, the person with more lean muscle mass will have a higher basal metabolic rate, and therefore, a lower metabolic age in comparison to those with the identical chronological age. An individual s metabolic age will vary depending depending how their calculated basal metabolic rate compares to others of the same chronological age. Metabolic age is a new term used in the health and fitness industry to describe overall fitness and metabolic activity. Examining metabolic age will give insights to the overall level of health and wellness in comparison to those of the same age. Improving personal fitness is a main concern of most health conscious individuals. BMR and the metabolic age number are excellent ways to track your progress. uncategorized date March 2011 ...   more details

As such, these networks comprise the chemical reactions of metabolism as well as the regulatory interactions that guide these reactions.

Some studies ref http www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov pubmed 16358395 ref that have specifically measured the changes in basal metabolic rate under isocaloric very high fat and very high carbohydrate diets have failed to find any statistically significant differences.

The chemical processes involved use energy themselves, so variations in the efficiency of these processes will have the same effect as variations in caloric intake. Gluconeogenesis The human body requires glucose for the brain and nervous system, and a diet that has very few or no dietary carbohydrates forces it to generate this glucose from protein through gluconeogenesis , with an efficiency of approximately 57 protein and carbohydrate are approximately equal in calorific value each has about four kilocalories per gram, but gluconeogenesis can produce only 57g of glucose from 100g of protein .

  1. Metabolic rift

    Unreferenced date December 2009 Context date October 2009 The metabolic rift is a term developed by John Bellamy Foster to signify the socio ecological contradictions of the town country division of labor in the capitalist era. Although Karl Marx never used the term metabolic rift, he did write of an irreparable rift in the interdependent process of social metabolism created by the rise of capitalism. ref Marx, Karl. 1981. Capital , Vol. III. New York Penguin, p. 949. ref Marx s understanding of social metabolism allowed him to develop a systematic critique of capitalist exploitation in the sense of robbery, i.e., failing to maintain the means of reproduction of the soil. Fertility, Marx argued, is not a natural quality as previously thought, but rather bound up with the social relations of the time, characterized by the rise of what he calls large scale industry, which required factories, workers, dense urban centers, and large amounts of food. The main metabolic rift Marx saw was in the nutrient cycle, in that nutrients that were previously being recycled into the soil were not longer able to be recycled, because the products were being transported away to somewhere else. Before the Industrial Revolution, in small scale farms, farmers would use cow manure or local seaweed to fertilize the soil with the Industrial Revolution, the nutrients and their products were being transported in from larger distances, creating the potential for a greater rift. Therefore, Marx argues that capitalist ...
