  • This research seems to support a link between estrogen and regulation of obesity
  • ventromedial nucleus or VMN, is a key center for energy regulation.

  • When estrogen levels in the VMN dipped, the animals' metabolic rate and energy levels also plummeted
  • The findings suggested that the ER-alpha in this region plays an essential role in controlling energy balance, body fat distribution and normal body weight.
