Melatonin: The Unsung Hero for Muscle Health - AI Podcast

Story at-a-glance Obesity and insulin resistance impair your mitochondrial function. This leads to muscle breakdown, reduced endurance and worsening glucose control, which further fuels metabolic disease A recent study found that melatonin helps combat obesity-driven muscle deterioration by improving mitochondrial function, reducing oxidative stress and restoring muscle fibers Research shows that melatonin boosts brown adipose tissue (BAT) function, which increases calories burned, improves metabolic flexibility and protects mitochondria from oxidative damage in diabetes and obesity Melatonin makes muscles more resilient and efficient, as it optimizes energy expenditure, activates metabolic pathways that regulate energy production and fat oxidation, prevents fat accumulation and increases fatigue-resistant muscle fibers Boost your natural melatonin by getting morning sunlight, reducing digital screen use at night, making your bedroom completely dark and doing relaxing activities before bed
