Uncovering the Hormonal Pathway to Boost Muscle Energy Burn and Weight Loss

A hormone called GDF15 has been found to play a role in maintaining weight loss during dieting by promoting energy expenditure in muscle. This hormone activates pathways that affect calcium levels in skeletal muscle, leading to increased energy burn. This discovery could potentially help address the issue of metabolic slowdown that often occurs with long-term calorie restriction.
