Leptin and Food Desire

The media is beginning to catch on to what I have been reporting for the past five years – leptin problems drastically influence the perception and desire for food, leading to excess consumption and weight gain.

There are only 12 humans that have been identified that have a genetic mutation preventing them from making leptin at all. Researchers studied their brain images following exposure to pictures of various foods ranging from tasty to bland. They found that these individuals craved any food, as various pleasure centers lit up when shown the pictures. Injecting them with leptin enabled them to have normal desire for food.

Leptin injections do not work in everyone else because most people suffer from leptin resistance, meaning that they make too much leptin and it does not get into the brain, setting up a false perception of starvation and causing excess desire for food. The only way to deal with this is to follow the five rules of the Leptin Diet, exercise regularly, eat healthier food, and use dietary supplements such as the Leptin Control Pack that help balance leptin function naturally.
