Metabolism refers to the process through which a human body produces energy from food. In this process, food is broken down into sugars and acids with the help of chemicals in the digestive system. These acids and sugars provide the energy or fuel for the body, which is used to perform various functions by the body. Metabolic diseases are a group of diseases that cause a disruption in the metabolic process due to abnormal chemical reactions within the body. These diseases affect the parts of the cells that function to produce energy. The most common sign of metabolic diseases is diabetes along with increased circumference of the waist. The causes include obesity and physical inactivity. Metabolic diseases are linked with the complications related to heart and vessel disease. Preventive methods, such as limiting saturated fat and salt in diet, consuming sufficient vegetables and fruits, and avoiding smoking, can help in the management and control of conditions that lead to metabolic diseases. The topics included in this book on metabolic diseases are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by it.

Metabolism refers to the body's mechanism through which it converts food into energy on a cellular level. It is carried out by thousands of enzymes, taking part in numerous interdependent metabolic pathways to perform this process. Metabolic diseases refer to diseases that disrupt the normal metabolism of a person. These diseases affect the capability of the cells to carry out crucial biochemical reactions, including the transport and processing of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. The causes of metabolic diseases are usually hereditary. However, the majority of people affected with any metabolic disease may seem healthy for several months or years. The initial symptoms generally occur once the body's metabolism becomes stressed, such as during a febrile illness or after long fasting. These diseases can be treated through nutritional management if detected initially. This book aims to explain the diagnosis and treatment of metabolic diseases. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. This book will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this condition.
