Leptin hormone is greatly responsible for weight gain, weight loss and appetite. It has even been dubbed the obesity, fat, hunger and starvation hormone. The heavier you are the more leptin you produce which causes something called leptin resistance.
Symptoms of leptin resistance:

- Excess abdominal fat
- Fatigue / low energy
- Hungry even after meals
- Crave high calorie foods (fast food, sweets, breads, pasta, etc.)
- Difficulty losing weight
- Difficulty keeping weight off
In this episode I discussed:

- How it effects our bodily functions including metabolism and hormones
- The liver leptin connection
- Sleep leptin connection
- Thyroid and leptin
- How to reverse leptin resistance quickly
