发帖数: 83 | 1 The hibernation diet
Hibernating animals survive the winter months in a state of torpor. Their bo
dy temperature plummets, their heart and breathing rates drop, and their met
abolism changes from primarily glucose burning to fat burning. They then liv
e on body fat reserves, sometimes for many months at a time.
Could inducing a similar state of torpor in humans also change our metabolis
m from glucose burning to fat burning? And if so, would this be an effective
treatment for obesity?
