"Slow metabolism" refers to the speed at which your body burns calories for energy. When you have a
slow metabolism, your body requires fewer calories to function compared to someone with a faster metabolism. This can make it harder to lose weight because your body stores more calories as fat instead of burning them off efficiently.
