πŸ”₯ Why Metabolism Matters More Than You Think

Metabolism isn’t just about burning calories. It’s the entire process your body uses to create energy from food, regulate hormones, manage inflammation, and keep you alive. A sluggish metabolism can result in fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and hormone imbalances.
