Speaker (Dr. Tabatha Barber) introduces the term "metabolism," noting it's used in multiple contexts (hormone breakdown, energy/weight, blood sugar). She defines metabolism as a process that changes one form to another, gives estrogen metabolism as an example, and states that if estrogens aren't processed properly through detox pathways, this constitutes a metabolism issue.

The word metabolism can be super confusing. I know. We use it in so many ways. We use it when we talk about breaking down hormones. We metabolize our estrogen, we talk about it with our weight and how quickly we burn through energy with our blood sugar. And so the word metabolism just means, like, a process is happening to change from one form to the other. And so our estrogens get changed into different forms, and if they aren't done properly through those detox pathways, we have a metabolism issue.
