Product Description
The Leptin Diet explains how to unleash the power of hormones to resolve fatigue, food cravings, thyroid problems, and body weight issues. Mastering the fat hormone leptin is the single most important factor in preventing obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. The Leptin Diet contains five simple lifestyle guidelines to get the hormone leptin into balance for permanent weight loss, increased energy, and optimum health. What is Leptin? Fat cells produce the powerful hormone leptin, a primary force instructing metabolism, weight loss, and hormone balance. Leptin communicates directly to your brain, telling the brain how much fat is in storage. It controls appetite, energy, and metabolic rate. Leptin problems are the primary reason for food cravings, overeating, faulty metabolism, the obsession with food, and heart disease. Read The Leptin Diet and notice the difference!

Don't waste your money on this book. Only discusses Leptin's relationship with other hormones in the body. If you are looking for a guide to specific foods that help control Leptin levels, you are better off looking on-line for info or visit[..] who also discusses Leptin and offers food choices and recipies.

I love this book!! It takes a complicated issue (weight loss) and explains it in a way that really makes sense. The author also gives you a set of simple steps to take to control of the master hormone (Leptin) and have it work for you. There are no gimicky diet plans or restricted diets, only a common sense approach to health and eating.

A good primer on how our bodies deal with food and fat by Michael McKee (Port Townsend, WA United States)

This is a short book and simple. The core of it covers 5 simple eating habits that will change the way the body deals with leptin, the hormone that signals us that we are full. The first three: never eat after dinner, eat three meals a day - at least 5 hours apart and don't eat large meals specifically address how our bodies interact with leptin. The next two: eat a high protein breakfast and reduce carbohydrates are more general diet tips. While I couldn't find this specifically, the carbohydrates in rule five seem to refer to the simple carbs in refined foods. In other places in the book, the author recommends whole grains and legumes, both carbohydrate rich foods. I've been following the plan for about a month and have lost 5 pounds. That may not seem a lot but I've been eating carefully for over six months and had lost almost 30 pounds already. But like many who lose weight I'd hit a plateau. It seems that non only what I eat matters but when I eat it. Fewer carefully spaced meals better regulate leptin metabolism. I'm now substituting fewer and larger meals for the six small meals a day that many diet experts recommend. It took a couple of weeks to not feel hungry, but I've made the transition and am again shedding pounds. If you want your explanations simple and general guidelines rather than detailed diet plans, this is your book. The basics are here and the science is simplified without being dumbed down too much. There is the kind of sales pitch for this plan that you'd expect from any diet book that sidesteps areas where research is less than certain. But we are just now learning the mechanisms of weight gain and loss so that's probably for the best. Citing conflicting reports makes things messy.
