IRISIN AS A POTENTIAL MEDICINE CONTROLLING OBESITY AND TYPE 2 DIABETES In the light of the data according to which the number of overweight or obese children and adults constantly increases, it becomes extremely important to impress upon the consciousness of society the positive aspects of enhanced physical activity which, apart from an appropriate diet, is the basis for the struggle with an excess of adipose tissue [19].
