  • Regular exercise is undoubtedly part of the weight loss picture, but how exactly does it impact body fat and fat storage? Let's look at the new research. The post How does exercise impact fat tissue and protect your heart?

The article from MSN discusses a study published in Nature Cell Biology that explores how exercise impacts fat tissue and contributes to heart health. Researchers found that exercise triggers the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from fat tissue, which are small particles that carry various bioactive molecules. These EVs can travel through the bloodstream to other organs, including the heart, where they help reduce inflammation and improve cardiovascular function. Specifically, the study showed that these vesicles from exercised fat tissue could protect the heart from injury, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease. This protective effect is linked to changes in the metabolic activity of fat cells, which become more efficient at burning fat and less likely to store it, thereby promoting overall metabolic health. The findings suggest that exercise not only helps in weight management but also directly benefits heart health through this novel biological pathway.
