Metabolic Function Regulation

Meaning

Metabolic Function Regulation refers to the complex, coordinated control mechanisms that govern the body’s processes of energy production, utilization, and storage across all tissues and organs. This physiological regulation, primarily orchestrated by the endocrine system, ensures that nutrient partitioning and energy expenditure are precisely matched to the body’s needs. Maintaining precise metabolic function is essential for preventing chronic diseases like obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders.
