    biochemical processes and substances that regulate body's energy use

    Metabolic factors refer to the various biochemical processes and substances in the body that influence metabolism, which is the set of life-sustaining chemical reactions that convert food into energy, build and repair tissues, and manage waste products. These factors can include hormones, enzymes, nutrients, and other molecules that regulate how efficiently the body uses energy and maintains overall health. For example, imbalances in metabolic factors can affect hair growth and contribute to conditions like alopecia.
