Brain metabolism vs body metabolism?

So I've read different things before about the brain's metabolism and I'm just wondering if that's distinct from the body's metabolism? Are they totally the same, totally different, or something in between? I've tried google searching this before but never really found an answer.

What do you mean?

Well, like sometimes I read articles from different scientific magazines and things. Sometimes they'll talk about how the brain's metabolism is faster during mania. I guess I don't understand what brain metabolism is and I was wondering if someone knew and could explain it. Because I always hear metabolism in reference to losing weight, in mainstream media and things... Maybe I'll wiki metabolism.

I think metabolism is metabolism is metabolism. The brain controls all of these processes and it really just describes how we convert food into energy or new cells.

That clarifies. Thanks, Ro.
