new drug targets to increase metabolic rate  

Definición

  • In general, drug targets for the treatment of obesity suppress appetite, prevent absorption of food in the gut, or increase energy expenditure. Drugs that reduce appetite or inhibit absorption ultimately reduce caloric intake, which can lead to a loss of both fat and lean tissue in the body and a slowing of metabolic processes.
