“We estimate that the lac-phe pathway is responsible for about 25% of the anti-obesity effects of exercise,” Long said.
I find this article annoying. It should come as no surprise that there is a mechanism for suppressing appetite during physical activity. There is only so much blood to go around and both digestion and exercise place demands on the blood supply.
It would be a hardship to place both demands on the body at the same time consistently.
- have_faith 4y ago> I find this article annoying. Why is it annoying? confirming unsurprising results is important.
- DoreenMichele 4y agoBecause it's framed like research for a potential weight loss pill rather than research into the mechanism behind the fairly well-known fact that people typically have less appetite while being physically active. I hate the tendency to frame everything in terms of a pill to fix our problems and/or a get rich quick scheme as a substitute for trying to figure out how to live right.
- vosper 4y agoYou’re absolutely right about the quality of the submitted article. It’s written like low-grade clickbait tech “journalism”. It’s even worse than the battery-breakthrough-of-the-week university PR pieces that get posted here. I imagine the research is good and useful. Pity about the way it’s been presented.
