Why is insulin the decisive hormone to reduce weight?
Insulin is a hormone which is built in the pancreas. After the consumption of carbohydrates (e.g. sugary edibles) insulin is released into the blood and the concentration rises. Insulin adjusts and normalises not only the level of blood sugar, but also supports the adipopexis, blocks the catabolism of fat and makes hungry. A lot of snacks a day lead to a frequent distribution of insulin. To reduce weight it is therefore recommendable not to raise the blood sugar level too often because the catabolism of fat is only possible then.
