Contract Your Muscles and Activate Your Myokines: Focus on IL-6

A board certified internal medicine physician talks about how IL-6, a signaling protein released from contracting skeletal muscle during exercise, fine tunes your metabolism and immune system. Want to know why exercise works? I explain on a molecular level.

Hi Dr. Conley, This was great information.

[@deepuls545]

Thank you for breaking down, in understandable terms, the importantance of exercise via Myokines. So important for folks to know the mechanism that make such positive changes throughout the body. It makes it real. Would like to see you do the others IL-15, Irisin etc. As a Senior Fitness Traniner/Specialist this info really helps...
