Guest guest Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 It has been a few months since I started " Lifestyle Institute of weight management and Aesthetics " in Glendale Arizona and Suncity West , Arizona . After getting certified as a Bariatritian it has been an interesting phase to see the Obesity epidemic up close. But I wanted to share the following passage from a commentary which I firmly believe in ( there are various theories for the Obesity epidemic all over the world but I firmly believe this is the real thing)... We are seeing weight loss upto 20 pounds in the first month itself based on our diet plans....... Corn syrup has Fructose. " Fructose is easily converted to fat in the body, and scientists have found that it also suppresses the action of a vital hormone called leptin. " Leptin goes from your fat cells to your brain and tells your brain you've had enough, you don't need to eat that second piece of cheesecake, " When the liver is overloaded with sugars, leptin simply stops working, and as a result the body doesn't know when it's full. " It makes your brain think you're starving and now what you have is a vicious cycle of consumption, disease and addiction. Which explains what has happened the world over, " Ashish Sachdeva '83 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
