German scientists called the main reasons for the emergence of excess weight in the elderly.

So, according to scientists from Bonn, the body begins to use fat as it ages to lose its fat. Norepinephrine, a hormone that promotes fat burning, in people of adulthood is destroyed by the action of a special enzyme.

It is worth noting, the explanation of the completeness of the elderly people that existed before, were unconvincing. The results of the research of German scientists can help in creating new methods for combating obesity. So, experts say, they already have a way to suppress the enzyme that blocks the production of norepinephrine necessary for normal metabolism in the body.
