Promotion of glucose uptake in skeletal muscles, thanks to which it is used for energy purposes, not for the creation of new fat cells (lipogenesis).
Increased lipolysis, or breakdown of fat.
Regulating the concentration of leptin (satiety hormone) and ghrelin (hunger hormone), reducing appetite, especially for foods rich in simple carbohydrates.
Increasing the level of adiponectin and lowering insulin levels, which helps in achieving an energy balance and reduces the accumulation of fat, especially in the abdominal area.
Increasing the level of lactate in the cells, which increases the energy expenditure (even resting!), thermogenesis and the browning of adipose tissue.
Acceleration of regeneration of muscles damaged after exercise, and thus increased muscle mass and strength as well as physical efficiency,.
Maintaining energy expenditure on a high level (metabolism).
Stimulating the secretion of digestive enzymes and increasing the absorption of nutrients from foods.
