Low intracellular ATP levels lead to carbohydrate-dependent hunger and impaired satiety.
Recognizing the link between ATP levels and hunger can aid in obesity treatment strategies.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
The low intracellular ATP levels result in carbohydrate-dependent hunger, impaired satiety (leptin resistance).
Why this rating
