Lipolysis, the breakdown of fats into fatty acids and glycerol, is primarily influenced by hormones. Catecholamines (such as epinephrine and norepinephrine) and glucagon increase lipolysis by activating hormone-sensitive lipase. Conversely, insulin decreases lipolysis by inhibiting hormone-sensitive lipase and promoting the storage of fats. Additionally, elevated levels of insulin in the bloodstream signal the body to store rather than break down fat.

What causes lipolysis?

Lipolysis is the process by which stored fats, triglycerides, are broken down into free fatty acids and glycerol. This process is primarily stimulated by hormones such as glucagon, epinephrine, and norepinephrine, which activate hormone-sensitive lipase. Additionally, physical activity and fasting can promote lipolysis by increasing the demand for energy, leading to the release of fatty acids for use as fuel. Insulin, on the other hand, inhibits lipolysis, promoting fat storage instead.
