Is your appetite out of control?

Have you ever heard of the word Leptin?

BOTTOM LINE: Leptin's hormone is what tell us that our body is full which keeps us from over eating (over eating causes us to gain weight)..We need this signal and unfortunately because the food manufacturers are putting High Fructose Corn Syrup in almost everything we eat (Bread, Mayo, barbecue sauce, ketchup, cereal, pop, juice, beverages, fruit snacks, jello, fruit in the can, cakes, pies, cookies, syrup)..I dare you to read your labels of food when you get home)).. It causes Leptin to be dull (or off)..

If you reduce your High Fructose Corn Syrup, this will help increase Leptin which will regulate your weight and CONTROL YOUR APPETITE!

Leptin (Greek leptos meaning thin) is a 16 kDa protein hormone that plays a key role in regulating energy intake and energy expenditure, including appetite and metabolism. It is one of the most important adipose derived hormones.[1] The Ob(Lep) gene (Ob for obese, Lep for leptin) is located on chromosome 7 in humans.[2]

Fructose and leptin resistance

A study published recently suggests that the consumption of high amounts of fructose causes leptin resistance and elevated triglycerides in rats. The high fructose diet rats subsequently ate more and gained more weight than controls when fed a high fat, high calorie diet.[27][28][29]
