A new study says a hormone naturally in humans and mice could potentially treat obesity. Researchers say the LCN2 hormone has previously been shown to make mice feel full after a meal. The hormone is secreted by bone cells and found naturally in mice and humans. The study found that the LCN2 hormone was also associated with a reduced feeling of hunger after a meal. LCN2 acts as a signal for satiety after a meal, leading mice to limit their food intake, and it does this by acting on the hypothalamus within the brain.

Body relationship coach Ivy Felicia says the messaging around weight and COVID-19 might negatively affect those at higher weights. HuffPost reports eating disorder therapist Shira Rosenbluth also takes issue with the weight loss campaigns public health officials are promoting right now. Telling higher-weight people they’re more likely to die, for them to be under that kind of stress, is obviously very unhealthy. Shira Rosenbluth Eating disorder therapist
