Know the Five Rules and follow them
The goal of these rules is to help you restore fitness to your fat
cells, hormones, and cellular metabolism – enabling you to have
better energy from the food you eat while attaining or maintaining
your optimal body weight. See chapter 5 of "The Leptin Diet®" for
details.
Eat Well
Just as timing of eating is important, so is what you eat. Eat a
variety of fresh, organic foods that give you good energy! It's
important to cut out the chemicals and additives and eat REAL
food. See chapter 8 of "The Leptin Diet®" for details.
Exercise
Exercise turns on genes that facilitate healthy leptin function
and metabolism. Consistency is more important than intensity. Do
enough to see progress in terms of a fitness feeling and support
of your weight loss effort.
Dietary Supplements
These can be used as "tools" to help keep your energy up, cravings
at bay, hormones working better, and metabolism engaged properly
in calorie burning. Dietary supplements make progress easier for
most and are quite helpful for getting started, staying on track,
or breaking through a weight-loss plateau.*
