Metabolism is a complex process that has a lot more going on than personal trainers and commercials might have you believe. Today we are exploring some of its key parts, including vital nutrients -- such as water, vitamins, minerals, carbs, fats, and proteins -- as well as how anabolic reactions build structures and require energy, while catabolic reactions tear things apart and release energy.

I was exhausted, diligently taking notes, pausing the video and rewinding. FINALLY felt that I was starting to get a complete understanding for the metabolism... and then the intro played.
When students procrastinate homework that's apart of a multi day lesson intended to teach them, to watch a video 10 minutes long and learn MORE about the subject than the class can... Something is wrong...
Yay, more Crash Courses! <3 This is the perfect excuse to procrastinate a little longer.
that avocado was so cute
Comparing Gordon Ramsey to DNA was the best thing that happened to me all day :D
0.75 speed. You're welcome

I am a nutrition and dietetics student studying about metabolism and this is the best video ever❤👍👍👍
I would love a crash course physics!!
An instructor from an A&P class I took years ago pointed out that pretty much every "popular" food combo we can think of contains all the essential amino acids. Cultures that first discovered these combinations had the habit of not being dead during tough times when dietary options were reduced down to simple of dishes of beans and rice, peas and carrots, etc. And now a-days, those combinations are basically ingrained into the culture of what we eat together.
Dam guys I didn't think you would go this deep. You made it to 3rd year biochem materials, never expected anyone to go that far in a small webshow. It may have been generalized but still, that is an achievement; bravo sirs, bravo.
I would love a crash course pharmacology!
i think a lot of people are here so they don’t fail a class they haven’t been paying attention in lately, but i’m just here bc i want to feel smart for once hahaha
Aaaww that little Gordon Ramsay was adorable!
Each cell is like a picky little Gordon Ramsey Lol
Crash Course has saved me many a times, from junior year Anatomy, to senior year AP Biology, to my 1st year Nutrition class.
The avocado is so cute I never eat them again. <3
Loving this new bit of having little animations interacting with you on screen, Loved little Sisyphus pushing the bolder up your arm and on the recent CC Astronomy it really cracked me up when Phil became Spectroscopy Man!
Hank likes long intros. I was so disappointed when he said "is what we'll discover next time." I was so ready to learn about that!
You seem like a chill guy. You also make stuff sound interesting, subbed!
