Metabolic Testing

Metabolic testing is a process that measures how your body converts food into energy. It assesses your resting metabolic rate (RMR), which is the number of calories your body burns at rest, and can help identify how efficiently your metabolism works. This testing can involve monitoring oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production during breathing. The results can guide personalized nutrition and exercise plans, helping you manage weight and improve overall health. It's often used in fitness settings, clinical nutrition, and sports performance to tailor approaches based on individual metabolic needs.
