This helps explain why statins are associated with: Higher fasting glucose Increased risk of insulin resistance A small but measurable increase in type 2 diabetes risk 3 Mitochondrial and energy effects Statins reduce production of CoQ10 , a compound essential for mitochondrial energy production
Research context: AOD 9604 is a fragment of human growth hormone studied for its proposed role in fat metabolism, distinct from full HGH
In another study, thyroid antibody levels and zinc levels were also significantly positively correlated
