Leptin and what is it? Where does it comes from?

Leptin - a relatively new known hormone, the existence of which was previously unknown. It's called leptin and it's not just any hormone.

Like insulin, leptin is an essential hormone, which essentially influences all other hormones and controls all the functions of the hypothalamus in the brain. The hypothalamus is the place where your inner dinosaur lives, that ancient structure, before the existence of human beings, it was in the middle of the head and is responsible for the rhythmic activities of the body and a wide range of physiological functions, from hunger to sex. I probably came to this discovery so late because leptin was identified in an unexpected place: fat cells.

The function of leptin in the body, like most hormones, is extremely complex.
To put it simply, leptin is a primitive survival tool. It is uniquely related to the coordination of metabolic, hormonal and behavioral reactions to starvation.

Leptin is a kind of gardener, and once you understand this hormone, you will KNOW how to regulate the rest of your hormonal system and, through this, you will control your health in unimaginable ways.

Although leptin is found in fat cells, this does not mean that it is bad. Excess, like any hormone, can lead to problems of various kinds, especially degenerative and shorter life.
But healthy levels are leptin, prevent most diseases characteristic of the aging process and support longevity.

Reading a doctor Nora T. Gadgaudas “Leptin essentially controls mammalian metabolism. Most people think that this is the role of the thyroid, but leptin actually controls the thyroid, which regulates the rate of metabolism.
Leptin monitors all energy stores. Leptin decides whether our hunger and fat storage and fat burning intensify. Leptin orchestrates our inflammatory reaction and can even control the sympathetic vs. parasympathetic balance in our nervous system. If any part of your system goes crazy, including your adrenal glands or sex hormones, you will have no chance of resolving these problems until you control your leptin levels. ”

If somebody wants to have a look, I found an extra small video about Leptin.

Have a great evening everyone. Take care of You. Love and peace 🙏
