Top Metabolism Quizzes & Trivia

Do you know what your BMR-Rate is? Do you in fact know what a BMR-rate is? If you do, then you may be a metabolic-scientist, a body-builder or someone interested in personal fitness. Either way, exercising takes its toll on your body, and thinking on your mind, and we have to pay for that toll right?

But do you know how? If you do, then grab a sandwich and try these quizzes out! There will be a starter course of easy questions on the food groups and sugary-foods, followed by the main course of questions on carbs, body-fat and vitamins. For dessert, we have a nice difficult list of questions regarding digestion, body-types and energy. After that mental workout, you'll want to sleep for weeks!
