Can Leptin Help?

0

The doctors studied patients who had lost weight and were maintaining their lifestyle changes along with their lower weight level. They gave them leptin and all of them lost more weight. So they concluded that each person has a leptin threshold and when levels fall below your threshold, your brain gets the signal to eat more – -and burn fewer calories – – until you get back to the leptin level that is normal for you. The Future: The doctors’ hope is that giving leptin to people trying to maintain a lower weight might trick the brain into thinking that the body has its usual level of fat. Much more research will be required to make that point.
