There are several ways to determine if you have a fast metabolism. Here are some possible indicators that may suggest your metabolism works at a faster rate:
- Difficulty gaining weight
- Difficulty maintaining the desired weight
- Frequent sweating
- Increased calorie burning
- Increased breathing
- Insomnia
However, its important to note that these signs are not definitive and may be influenced by other factors such as genetics, age, gender, and physical activity level.
If you suspect you have a metabolic disorder, its best to see a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. Additionally, you can check your levels of three key hormones that affect metabolism and weight (cortisol, testosterone, and thyroid-stimulating hormone or TSH) with an at-home metabolism test. However, note that this test does not give you a measurement of your metabolic rate.
