Metabolic diseases encompass a wide range of conditions that occur when the body’s metabolism—the complex process of converting food into energy—is disrupted. These disorders happen when abnormal chemical reactions interfere with how the body processes carbohydrates, fats, or proteins, causing an imbalance of essential substances needed for good health. Common metabolic diseases include diabetes mellitus (both Type 1 and Type 2), where the body struggles to regulate blood sugar due to insulin problems; metabolic syndrome, a combination of high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and excess belly fat that raises the risk of heart disease and stroke; and thyroid disorders like hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, which involve hormone imbalances affecting metabolism. Some metabolic diseases are inherited genetically, while others develop from lifestyle factors such as diet and exercise habits. Symptoms vary widely but often include fatigue, unexplained weight changes, digestive problems, and if untreated, can lead to serious complications affecting vital organs.
