Many people feel that they spend a lot of time in the gym, but did not let their weight becomes closer to the goal, scientists think they may have found to explain the reason of this phenomenon. A new study has found that a protein that prevents our body fat is easy to burn.
In other words, our bodies us fight and trying to lose weight, this finding may explain why overweight people can be hard to lose the extra weight. Researchers from Cambridge University study found that when mice sLR11 proteins.
Researchers found that mice without this gene to be a little more fat than those who have the genes of mice much faster. Excess fat, the more, this protein can play a role in prevention, we can use it as a protective mechanism.
So why do our bodies against our efforts to lose weight? researchers say stored fat in the body is divided into white fat and brown adipose tissue. White fat is the ordinary conventional fats, it gives us energy in our time of need. While Brown fat only to keep warm function (baby's body is rich in Brown fat, sLR11) protein's job is to ensure that it will not be any other way "wasted away" like sweat on a treadmill.
Researchers to study the sLR11 found human body weight and that there is a correlation between the contents of proteins. Research team member Andrew Whittle said: "our findings may help to explain why overweight people have difficulty losing weight, they stored fat are actively discouraging their own efforts in burning fat.

After knowing this, researchers say, they can manipulate this sLR11 in future for those obese people and eating disorder to find potential treatments. Body heat production have become scientists in addressing obesity, heart disease and diabetes related problems are increasingly interested in one area, but until now, scientists have found only a small number can reduce the heat.

Toni Vidal-Puig, lead researcher, said: "we have found a very important mechanism, other than the help people improve the ability to burn body fat, and can also be targeted to help people who want to save energy, such as anorexia nervosa. "
Researchers admit that, so far, using drugs to fight obesity is still viable, however, their results can change in the future. It is understood that the results of this research have been published in the journal nature communications.
