Just like with any medical condition, the first and most important steps are to educate yourself on the disorder, learn its effects on the body, and then learn how to manage it. Over 50 million people in the United States suffer from this disorder. This means that about one out of every six people are fighting against their own body and their own hormones in their efforts to lose weight and become healthier. They are also fighting a battle with diet and portion size. They are fighting with their body to control hunger cravings and the need to snack. No matter how you look at it, your body sending signals of hunger all the time is just not fair to you.

Your own body forcing you to eat, or telling you that unhealthy portion sizes are necessary for you to be comfortable is completely ridiculous, and only YOU can put a stop to it. Within the pages of this book, you will develop a full understanding of Leptin Resistance, as well as strategies for controlling and reversing the resistance your body has built. This guide provides information on how to holistically manage this disorder on a natural level and in combination with medications your doctor may prescribe. I am here to tell you how to take control of your Leptin levels and your resistance, and to become a healthier, happier you that can stand proud.

L eptin is a protein hormone that regulates the expenditure and intake of energy in the body. Leptin plays a crucial part in the regulation of metabolism and appetite.

The protein, Leptin, was discovered in the 1950s inside the Jackson Laboratory while studying mice with a homozygous obese (ob) mutation on its genetic strain. The researchers found that these mice were massively obese and ate excessive amounts of food. By the 1960s, the researchers were able to typify the defective gene. It was only in the 1990s that the defective obese gene was mapped. By 1994, the ob gene was finally discovered and identified as the hormone leptin by Jeffrey Friedman. The term Leptin comes from the Greek word leptin, which means thin.

This is because the normal allele of the ob gene keeps a person thin, unlike its mutant gene. The Science behind Leptin In humans, the ob gene is found in chromosome 7 and is composed of 16 kDa adipose-driven proteins with a total of 167 amino acids. Most of the leptin hormones are created within the bodys white fat deposits; therefore, the amount of leptin within the body is directly connected with the bodys total fat. Leptin can also be created within brown adipose tissues in small quantities. These brown adipose tissues can be found all over the body in areas like the liver, pituitary gland, bone marrow, and placenta, fundic glands in the stomach, skeletal muscle and ovaries. Action & Mechanism As we have mentioned above, leptin is a huge factor that control the regulation of appetite and metabolism.

Aside from that, it modulates the amount of adipose tissues fatty tissues in our body. The process by which leptin acts on inhibiting appetite is by acting on specific receptors of the hypothalamus in a way that is stimulatory or counteractive, such as:

• Leptin stimulates the production of melanocyte-stimulating hormone which acts as an appetite suppressant.
• Neuropeptide Y is a feeding stimulant in the gut and leptin can counteract its effects.
• Adandammide is a cannabinoid neurotransmitter which also promotes appetite; again leptin can counteract its effects.

How Does Leptin Help In Weight Regulation? If you lose fatty tissues, it goes to follow that leptin plasma levels also go down, and therefore appetite is fueled so that the body recovers the lost fats. Along with this, bodily energy expenditure is lessened through a decrease in body temperature. On the other hand, leptin levels are increased if fat mass is increased; therefore weight loss occurs through appetite suppression. This is how leptin regulates your weight. Leptin also affect the modulation and regulation of onset of puberty.

In the cases of thin women, the onset of puberty for them is much later compared to girls who are heavier. Further, thin girls sometimes fail in releasing an egg from the ovary, or ovulating, during their menstrual period. Consuming Foods Containing Leptin With most medical conditions, you can monitor the level of the needed chemical that can be found in your foods. Unfortunately, consuming foods that contain Leptin will not assist you in the matter of Resistance. The digestive tract is not able to absorb any form of Leptin to increase your personal levels. Searching for foods that contain it and adding them to your diet will not provide any benefit.

In order to be effective, your body must create its own and respond to it. You do not want high levels in your body; this can increase the resistance and ultimately do more damage to the receptors that trigger you feeling full. The goal is to teach your body to respond to Leptin, and to do so at a lower level. What is Leptin Resistance? Leptin is the hormone that controls metabolism and also curbs your appetite. When your brain reads that there is not enough of this chemical in your body to keep it satisfied, it must get your attention. To do so, your body carries out a series of triggers that create hunger.

Unfortunately, your body cannot pull the Leptin it needs from food, so searching for a food that contains it serves no purpose. Basically, what you eat becomes fat, and the fat produces the chemical, which is then released into your blood stream. Once a certain amount is built up in your blood stream, your brain should turn off the hunger response. When someone is resistant to leptin, their brain does not turn off the hunger response even when they are full. When you have an abnormal increase in the level of leptin in your blood stream over a long period of time, your body learns to ignore it, which results in Leptin insensitivity, in the same manner the levels of insulin can be ignored in diabetics. Not everyone creates their own Resistance.
