Obesity and body weight control

Surgery to mitigate complications of diabetes and obesity comes of age: Mechanistic insights into how Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery can save you from blood sugar disease (Diabetes Mellitus): Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), one of the bariatric surgical procedure performed for weight loss,  augments the expression of FGF19 and FGF1,  attenuates hepatic glucose production, decreases hepatic acetyl CoA content, brings down the levels of plasma ACTH, and corticosterone, augments insulin sensitivity, promotes weight loss and alleviates TIDM, via upregulation of its target gene, 15/July/2019, 7.41 am

A long myth that how coconut oil lowers cholesterol and triglyceride and increases HDL levels is explained: Lauric acid-based therapy for Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD):Lauric acid (C12) or Dodecanoic acid, one of the main components of  coconut oil, promotes degradation of HMGCR, decreases the levels of triglycerides, free cholesterol, and total cholesterol and prevents the progression of Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD via down-regulation of its target gene, 9/June/2018, 11.17 pm
