'Remote Control' For Fat Metabolism Discovered In Brain

The oxymoron of the morons:

"A system in the brain already known to regulate food intake also serves as a direct 'remote control' for the way fat is stored and metabolized in the body, say University of Cincinnati (UC) researchers. "

This is a new and interesting concept - the direct remote control.

Whoever thought that up likely has separated contiguous thoughts.

Whatever.

Here is the gist of this approach to assaulting you. Or so the researchers claim.

"The group studied the melanocortin system at the molecular level in rodents. They found that when the system is stimulated to increase activity, fat is metabolized. When activity in the system is reduced -- either pharmacologically or genetically -- fat accumulation increases. "

Interestingly, if fat people increased activity without drugs, their fat would be metabolized.

Imagine that.

"'We were able, in essence, to change traffic signals in so-called nutrient highways in the body so that calories were metabolized, and not dumped into fat cells,' says Tschöp. 'And we did this without changing the rate of food intake.' "

Interestingly, if fat people increased activity without drugs, their fat would be metabolized "without changing the rate of food intake."

Imagine that.

Just keep telling yourself that the same people who are intending to control your brain and genetics cannot cure toenail fungus.

And don't trust a single one of them for an instant.
