Lipolysis #

  • Adipose is released from fat stores via lipolysis. This doesn’t always lead to fat loss if it’s induced merely by a fast metabolism. Low lipolysis can make you skinny-fat.
  • Increasing lipolysis converts more glucose to fat, rather than being used for energy production.
    • Probably due to some kind of feedback loop
  • Lipolysis may be downregulated while asleep, which forces the body to produce sugar, even if it isn’t being rapidly consumed.
  • Promoted by Endotoxin, Estrogen, Growth Hormone, Prolactin, inflammation, gut-derived Serotonin, and marathon-style running.
