Researchers have uncovered a surprising new role for the HSL protein: beyond breaking down fat, it also works inside the nucleus of fat cells to keep them functioning properly. When HSL is missing, fat tissue doesn’t expand as expected— instead, it shrinks, leading to lipodystrophy. This unexpected discovery helps explain why both obesity and fat-loss disorders share similar health risks, and it opens up fresh paths for understanding metabolic diseases at a time when obesity affects billions worldwide.
A heart specialist may very well tell an obese patient these things, but are they going to spend billable hours that insurance companies deny payment to dig deeper to ask questions and write referrals? Is the primary care team going to fight to get more than six therapy sessions paid? To approve and pay for a gym membership?
if you’re seeing a cardiologist you’re well beyond the point of basic holistic health troubleshooting. that’s something your regular GP handles, THEN if that doesn’t help they refer you to a cardiologist for heart specialized care. it would be a waste of your time and money for a cardiologist to be talking to you about anything outside their speciality. that’s the entire reason your have an appointment with them, to focus on specific issues your GP can’t handle.
If you go see a “holistic” doctor for heart problems instead of a cardiologist you’re gonna have a bad time.
