In a social media world obsessed with "fixing" metabolism, we've lost the plot. Every week, a new "hack" promises to ignite fat burning, from oat smoothies to shots of olive oil. Young people are bombarded with extreme diet trends like "SkinnyTok" and "Oatzempic," which often border on, or outright encourage, disordered eating. The underlying message: if you're not constantly optimizing, speeding up, or shrinking, there's something wrong with you.

Here's the truth: your metabolism probably isn't broken. It's your expectations — and the system feeding them — that are warped.
