Metabolism
 is
 a
 process
 in
 which
 organism’s
 material
 substances
 are
 produced,
 maintained

and
 destroyed
 and
 by
 which
 energy
 is
 made
 available.
 Basically,
 metabolism
 means
 how
 fast
 or

how
 does
 your
 body
 works
 towards
 producing
 energy
 and
 releasing
 that
 energy
 that
 you
 produced

acquired
 through
 food.
 Daily
 caloric
 needs
 would
 be
 understood
 as
 caloric
 intake,
 which
 means
 the

total
 number
 of
 calories
 in
 a
 daily
 diet
 allocation,
 the
 amount
 of
 calories
 you
 eat
 a
 day
 in
 your
 life.

In
 order
 to
 have
 good
 caloric
 intake,
 you
 must
 consume
 about
 10,500
 for
 men
 and
 8,500
 for

women
 a
 day,
 more
 and
 it
 may
 hurt
 your
 body,
 less
 and
 your
 body
 will
 be
 asking
 for
 those

nutrients
 by
 taking
 away
 stored
 energy
 produced
 from
 your
 organs.
