Physical Exercise and Appetite Regulation: New Insights

Biomolecules. 2023 Jul 27;13(8):1170. doi: 10.3390/biom13081170.

Abstract

Physical exercise is considered an important physiological intervention able to prevent cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and obesity-related cardiometabolic imbalance. Nevertheless, basic molecular mechanisms that govern the metabolic benefits of physical exercise are poorly understood. Recent data unveil new mechanisms that potentially explain the link between exercise, feeding suppression, and obesity.

Keywords: L-Lactate; appetite; obesity; physical exercise.
