Why is a high fever dangerous to enzymes?
A high fever can denature enzymes by altering their shape and structure. Enzymes are sensitive to changes in temperature, and a high fever can disrupt the delicate balance needed for enzymes to function properly, leading to decreased enzyme activity and potentially causing harmful effects on various biological processes in the body.
Is it common for a person with a dying fever to experience fluctuations in body temperature"?
Yes, it is common for a person with a dying fever to experience fluctuations in body temperature.
What can a fever slow down?
enzymes best function at optimum temperature for human body optimum temperature is 37 C, raise in optimum temperature affects the function of enzymes and with very high temperature enzyme activity ceases. high temperature also affects proteins resulting in protein structural changes. fever slow down the enzyme activity.

Why does fever increase YOUR bmr?
Not really. Actually, in case of fever, temperature is increased which causes most of the enzymes to be degraded, therefore enzymatic activity get decreased that leads to lowering of the metabolism rate. Thus, BMR is decreased.
