What is myotabolism?
Metabolism is the amount of energy (calories) your body burns to maintain itself. Whether you are eating, drinking, sleeping, cleaning etc... your body is constantly burning calories to keep you going. Metabolism is affected by your body composition. By body composition, I mean the amount of muscle you have versus the amount of fat. Muscle uses more calories to maintain itself than fat. People who are more muscular (and have a lower percentage of body fat) are said to have a higher metabolism than others that are less muscular. For example, let's say you have two people who are the exact same height and weight. One exercises on a regular basis with weights, in addition to aerobic exercise, and has a low percentage of body fat. The other never exercises and has a higher percentage of body fat. The first person who exercises will have a higher metabolism than the second person. What this basically means is that person #1's body will use more calories to sustain itself than person #2.
What is the connection between a persons genes and his or her metabolism?

Why does a starving person have a high concentration of urea in the blood?
When a person is starving, their body breaks down protein for energy, leading to an increase in urea production as a byproduct of protein metabolism. Urea is then released into the blood and its concentration rises due to the increased breakdown of proteins for energy in the absence of sufficient food intake.

What 3 factors influence a person's basal metabloism?
Three factors that influence a person's basal metabolism are their age, gender, and body composition. Generally, metabolism tends to decrease with age, with men typically having a higher basal metabolic rate than women. Additionally, muscle mass typically burns more calories at rest compared to fat mass, so individuals with higher muscle mass may have a higher metabolism.

Can protein drinks increase ketone levels in the urinalysis test?
Ketones are produced as a byproduct of fat metabolism, not protein metabolism. Elevated urine keytone levels can be either a sign of diet-induced ketosis or possible kidney disease. In either case, a high protein diet alone should not elevate keytone levels in urine. However, if a person is on a high-protein, high-fat and low-carbohydrate diet (for example Atkins or one of the other ketogenic diets out there), it would not be unusual to see elevated keytone levels in a urinanalysis. These keytones would be produced, however, as a result of the body metabolizing fat in the absence of carbohydrates, and not because of the higher protein intake.
