Reading Labs: Leptin - The Hormone Behind Your Food Cravings

The podcast focuses on the hormone Leptin and its connection to appetite suppression. Leptin is produced by fat cells and acts as insulin's assistant. When insulin levels rise, so do leptin levels. People with insulin resistance often also have leptin resistance. Therefore, when attempting to lose weight or reverse diabetes, it is important to monitor leptin levels. Higher levels of leptin are associated with a higher body mass index. This highlights the role of leptin in appetite control. It suggests that when feeling hungry, individuals should consider if it is true hunger or just cravings. Find great supplements at mswnutrition.com/?ref=nursedoza
