New research has found that brown fat controls appetite

study found that brown fat, known as "good fat," not only produces calories in the cold, but also "cooperates" with an intestinal hormone to control appetite. The discovery is expected to be used in the development of new weight-loss therapies.
fat in the body is mainly used to store energy, while brown fat is mainly responsible for energy consumption to generate calories. Previous studies have suggested that allowing brown fat to consume more energy can help you lose weight. Researchers in Germany, Finland and the United States, in a recent study published in the American journal Cell, said they found that brown fat also has the ability to control appetite.
people eat, intestinal hormones release signals telling the brain if they are full. The researchers found that an intestinal hormone called trypsin played an important role.
In animal experiments, they injected hungry mice with trypsin, which not only suppressed their appetite, but also increased the amount of calories produced by brown fat; The researchers believe this suggests that the hormone conveys a sense of satiety by acting on brown fat.
researchers say understanding how pancreatic and brown fat regulate appetite can help develop new nutritional or drug interventions to treat obesity and related diseases. (Source: Xinhua News Agency, Zhou Zhou)
