Even when you're resting, your body is anything but inactive.
The brain, liver, skeletal muscles, kidneys and heart account for approximately 78% of your body's resting energy expenditure.
The remaining 22% supports countless other vital processes throughout the body—from breathing and digestion to immune function, hormone regulation, skin maintenance and cellular repair.
Rest isn't the absence of activity. It's when thousands of physiological processes continue working quietly in the background to keep the body balanced and functioning.
At Hegen Pharma, we believe that understanding these remarkable processes is the first step toward supporting better health through science.
