Metabolic diseases are a group of disorders that affect the body's ability to process and convert food into energy. These conditions can result from genetic mutations or environmental factors, leading to problems with metabolism, such as the breakdown of fats, proteins, or carbohydrates. Common metabolic diseases include diabetes, hyperthyroidism, and inborn errors of metabolism like phenylketonuria. Symptoms can vary widely but may include fatigue, unexplained weight changes, and organ dysfunction. Treatment typically focuses on managing symptoms and regulating the metabolic processes through medication, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments.
