Hormones and Weight Loss (Leptin)

Maximized Living is a healing organization that consists mostly of chiropractors and nutritionists.  They teach their obese patients that they are NOT lazy or undisciplined, but they may be ill or unbalanced.

Leptin is a hormone responsible for burning fat.  If the leptin in your body is functioning properly, you aren't likely to have any kind of problems with weight gain unless there is another pathology involved.  If you are having trouble losing those last few pounds, it could be because the leptin in your body isn't functioning properly.  According to Maximized Living, that could be because your body is overwhelmed with toxins.  Maximized Living teaches a variety of patients about the healing diet.  This diet is for people that have certain pathological conditions that need to heal.  The healing diet eliminates foods that contain anything that will exacerbate symptoms or make their condition worse.

Here is a chiropractor explaining why the traditional diet and exercise hoopla doesn't work for those who are trying to lose weight..
