Metabolic pathways - Interactive map

In summary, metabolic pathways are a series of chemical reactions that convert food into energy and essential molecules in living organisms. Studying these pathways can provide insights into energy processing and identify potential health issues. They are regulated by hormones, enzymes, and cellular signaling to maintain balance. There are three types of pathways: catabolic, anabolic, and amphibolic, which are interconnected through a complex network of reactions for efficient resource utilization.

Are you like me and think biology can be messy and difficult? Well, you're right. :nb)
Here is a very cool, very large interactive map of metabolic pathways, which a friend of mine sent to me today:

And if you want to be extremely careful with your diet, you could try to memorize this map. Good luck! :biggrin:
