A 30-minute moderate exercise session can immediately boost mood by releasing the hormone adiponectin, which activates specific brain receptors and enhances synaptic connections, offering potential for quick-acting antidepressant effects and new treatment targets.
Research from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology shows that high-intensity exercise increases the concentration of the hormone adiponectin in breast milk, which may have a positive impact on the metabolism of breastfeeding babies. This study aims to understand if exercise can limit the development of overweight in children, as early nutrition plays a critical role in future health. The research suggests that intense exercise has a greater effect on adiponectin levels in breast milk compared to moderate exercise, and the findings may have implications for preventing childhood obesity.
