I'm very discouraged now in this video you say if you are over 50 it's so hard to lose weight. I'm in the severe range my levels were 47 ng ml and I 'm also insulin resistant. Since 2018 I have been trying to lose weight exercise even eating clean nothing helps it seems like I keep gaining instead of losing. My weight went from 162 to almost 220 which I have never been this heavy. I can lose a few pounds and its goes right back to this weight. It's like my body thinks this is my correct weight when it is not. It has to be something that I can do to conquer these problems.

Hi this is really great info. I'm in menopause, have thyroid issues and my leptin level is 25ng/ml. My doc didn't prescribe any leptin meds. I have always had a hard time losing weight and keeping it off but through diet and exercise stayed a decent weight all through my 20s and 30s. sometimes extremely low calorie though. I'm now 48 and the past two years put on 15 lbs that I can not get off even with thyroid and hormone replacement therapy. We're still trying to balance my thyroid though. It's so frustrating because I work so hard. I'm currrenlty sticking with 1200-1300 cal counting macros, high fiber very low sugar only certain type of carbs and still nothing. Thanks for the info. I'll ask my doc about the meds you mention.

I wonder how fasting fits into the picture in terms of reversing leptin resistance.

Don't do keto as it's not sustainable for a lot of people. Eat everything as long as it has no added sugar. Eat one ingredient foods. Carbs included that have pure glucose, but no fructose from sugar. Also you can eat bread, just find one that has a maximum of 4 grams of added sugar per 100g. Fruits are also perfectly fine to eat. You need to do this for a long time so if you cut out food groups you're just asking to quit. Also add fasting to your life, try to delay breakfast for as long as possible when you wake up.

Leptin resistance comes from the visceral fat in your organs, just like insulin resistance. So you shouldn't look for meds, but a way to clear out that visceral fat in your organs. Luckily there are 2 simple steps: 1) don't eat refined sugar, or try to limit it as much as possible -- as that's what causing you to have that visceral fat in the first place. 2) Try doing fasting, try to delay your breakfast for as long as possible when you wake up. Breakfast is the worst meal of the day.

@winxclubstellamusa

It prevents the fat cells from being used for fuel because having high leptin convinces the brain that we are starving so the brain, specifically the hypothalamus, tells the fat cells to keep adding and making more! So leptin resistance prevents proper satiation and proper metabolism, while making weight loss chemically impossible.

It's very simple to treat... make a permanent change in your nutrition -- stop consuming a lot of refined sugar as that's what causing you leptin and insulin resistances (fructose from refined sugar gets converted into visceral fat and gets stored in your organs, and muscles). And also you need to fast, so try to delay your breakfast for as long as possible when you wake up. Your body prioritizes using visceral fat when it's in the absence of food.

My 9 year old daughter has her leptin on 36 and she is not even fat yet. My husband has his leptin on 73 and his weight is 200 kilos. My mother in law had severe lymphoedema at the size of a watermelon on her right knee and she was also 200 kilos. She died from heart attack. All her life she tried many diets without any serious results. She died without learning the cause of her obesity. Leptin resistance. By the way they never had any other problem on their blood, normal cholesterol and etc. Not even high levels of sugar blood. That was the main puzzle. How can it be someone that obese to have everything normal in his/her blood. Because they are on constant diet but always getting fatter and fatter. All the doctor's primary thought was you must eat way too much to be that obese. And after the blood results they didn't know what to do. You look healthy but you are not healthy. No one ever mentioned leptin. But in their case the problem is genetic. I am sure about that. Leptin is also responsible for the bone structure. The more leptin the biggest bone structure. When my daughter was a baby the pediatrician freaked out because after examined my daughter she heard my daughter's bone, that crack sound. Baby's bones are more elastic than ours and don't do cracking sounds but my daughter's bones was not. My daughter already developed her bones as a baby due to high levels of leptin in her blood. I didn't knew it then. She is also the tallest kid in her class now. I suspect that the cells in the hypothalamus can't read leptin due to genetic failure. Is there any way to rejuvenate Hypothalamus via nutricion or medication otherwise we can't cure the root of the problem. I don't want my daughter to end up like my mother in law. Sorry for my english. Greetings from Greece.

Not if the leptin is too high. Beginning from moderate leptin resistance diet alone doesn’t work, and something as extreme as keto actually causes more metabolic damage to those which moderate and severe leptin resistance, in addition to how it’s highly detrimental for a woman to do long term, so it will damage a woman’s metabolism significantly more than a man’s.

My Leptin level is 33

Well\, Dr. W. Childs I'm in that serious level place. I well over 60ty, 80ty lbs over weight. was a binge & purger years ago. Weight has been up & down a lot. Everyone before me was mostly very overweight. I have always lost weight by basically starving, running 12 miles a day. I lost the 80ty lbs in 2001 by just drinking Whey protein & water every day. 3 times a day. But I have gained all the weight back & then some. I am searching for an Endo. doctor who will give me a Leptin test & any other suggestions U have for testing. I did get the free T3, free T4, but not the rt3 or the total t3. So I told the nutrition doctor i didn't think I could get the right answer as to what to do if the total necessary information was missing to make an informed decision as to what I need so I CAN lose weight without starving.. Few doctors R willing to give some of the test u give or read them as u do. It makes me very sad & very scared. I feel alone in my health care to try to get well. I believe I am in the 3rd 1 which is severe!! I am most of what U mentioned in that level. Yes it is tough for me to lose wight because i can exercise anymore than walking as much as my pained body allows me to walk. I am keeping track of my steps as much as I remember to carry my iPod. I have been doing about a mile to 2 miles a day. Sometimes more..but not all at the same time. it does not effect my weight. In the past I ate very little ran 12 miles a day & worked out in a gym 2 hrs a day. I could barely maintain my low weight then without binging & purging & trying to eat nothing most days. Just a liquid diet till I couldn't take it anymore. I did lose weight but it always came back especially after 50ty... I am doomed I think Dr. Childs... Without money or a doctor who will work with my difficult care I will remain over weight,unhappy with how I look & stuck in my body which causes me to have more pain,maybe more broken bones & breathing problems: Sleep apnea. My Spirit is forever trying, never giving up & pushing myself beyond my ability all alone. I have no support system or family to B there for me. I am always researching & believing there has to B any answer for me besides starving to death to b SLENDER & to FEEL BETTER! I don't wish to break my back again. I lost 20% of my height & narrowing & pinching of nerves.. If U can think of someone here in Santa Monica,Ca or nearby who might work for me,Great! I am not giving up!! Oh also they said all my thyroid stuff came back NORMAL, whatever that is..

Geez, why are you writing this way and why are you writing so much? Be concise god damn it, I ain't got time to read that. But anyways I'll offer some help. No, you ain't gonna have any permanent results until you realize this: your body has a setpoint that it'll permanently stick to. It's probably around 15-20% body fat. You just gotta accept it and live with it, it's not that bad anyways. Now if you're above 20%, then the problem is you've got insulin and leptin resistance. To cure that, you simply need to stop consuming a lot of refined sugar and try fasting -- try delaying your breakfast for as long as possible when you wake up.

Aleksas Ivanauskas Well I already do fasting I do not eat refined sugar I eat organic and I eat mostly fruits vegetables oatmeal and fish and some times chicken. Are usually eat one and a half meals a day and I usually eat my first meal on the day after three or 4 o’clock. So I’m fasting for more than 16 hours yes I have insulin and leptin resistance. I have not figured out how to change it. I would need guidance and help to do it first of all I need to know how much insulin resistance I have and how much slept in resistance I have. I have been trying to walk more in spite of my excruciating back pain and hip pain foot pain and neck pain and hand pain. I have ankylosing spondylitis asked you arthritis fibromyalgia & osteoporosis! I write a lot because I am just talking to my phone. I am not typing I could not do that with my hands. I am a writer so I believe in it including a lot of detailed information so as not to set the person on the wrong path. But even though I gave you lots of information is still sent me information that’s not relevant to my problem. I probably should’ve mentioned that I am insulin and Leptin and resistant! I believe I mentioned that in some other postings. And I am probably more than 20% overweight. I am 5 feet one and I weigh about 180 pounds. That is obese! My weight when I was running and hardly eating was 117 pounds and I was 5‘4“ which I think it’s a good weight for me. But since I broke my back and have all these other bone and physical ailments I am unable to keep up the activity that I could before. I’m going to get a nerve ablation where they will burn the nerves so that I don’t feel pain for hopefully a year and if not that long maybe only half a year but that will give me some relief to strengthen my core so in the pain comes back I will one of lost some weight and will not feel it as much. I also take supplements that most people don’t take. Things to help with insulin resistance things to help keep your body useful. I already look much younger than I am and no it is not because of the fat that I have gained. Because my face and arms and legs are still very slender I just have extra weight in my stomach and my butt. Most people do not realize how heavy I am because I wear loose clothing layered and the way it does not show that much. But my bones feel like my muscles feel it and of course I feel it. And I’m not gonna just live with it because I do have more weight on me than my bones can handle that is probably why I broke my back. And that is also part of why I have insulin resistance. However if I could lose 50 pounds I probably wouldn’t have so much insulin resistance or even leptin resistance. But I need a doctor to test those for me and work with me. I’m already doing a lot of the right things I don’t eat junk food I don’t eat food with carrageenan in it. I don’t eat eat corn or syrup. I rarely eat bread and if I do it’s it’s high-quality bread. I try to eat things without wheat I do not eat yogurt. I stay away from dairy products in general unless it’s lactose free. I tend to drink coconut milk oat milk I eat some soy because I’m a person can eat soy because I’m not big on eating dead animals. I was a vegan for a long time I was a vegetarian for a long time. Now I have included some eggs and cheese and some animal products such as sardines salmon and occasionally chicken. Once in a while I have noodles but I tend to eat noodles that I made with something other than wheat. I am taking things to help slow down the aging process such as resveratrol , grapeseed, wild yam DHEA & pregnenolone folate Corella fermented mushrooms I glutamine chromium hyaluronic acid Kinko’s or milk Thistle, vitamin K2 are Laporte acid and some other items too. Also walking about a mile a day with a crutch no not all at one time just whatever I’m doing I’m keeping track of my steps. So I’ve increased them in spite of my pain. So the suggestions that you gave me I’ve already been doing. In fact I’m probably doing more than you were suggested because I eat organic. I also eat fish that’s wild sardines Have very little mercury. I’ve been listening to a lot of the smarter people on KZitem such as Dr. David Sinclair Dr. Berg John Rose, and a bunch of other guys out there that have seem to be informed Lou Corona, Dan the Man, And I think I mentioned john Rose. Listen to Dr. but he’s an older man who seems to be fairly wise it has lots of useful information. Hey William have you ever read a novel? Say about the 500 pages long? Well readingthis is far less than 500 pages! No one says you have to read it. You can just skip over it. Have you ever watch the video it’s 10 minutes long? I don’t think this is even 10 minutes. How about a video five minutes? We might have a short attention span. I don’t know because I don’t know you. Oh thank you for stopping by. Whatever I’m not excepting your advice because I’ve already been doing two things you mentioned and I’m not gonna live with that that my body shouldn’t be caring just because somebody on here says it’s not that bad you’re not in my body you’re not feeling the pain I’m feeling weight makes your bones suffer. My bones are suffering from over 50 pounds of weight that’s like walking around carrying 50 pounds of groceries every day with you your body can’t take that, my body can’t take that!

@@bondjane007 I didn't say accept a fatass body, I said accept it when you're at 20% body fat and you're lean. I said some of us have a harder time becoming leaner, but none of us are supposed to be fatsos. Now, if you've been doing that what I said already, then that's good. Keep doing it. You'll fix your damn resistances -- you just need patience. And also it might take longer as you don't have a lot of muscle mass since you can't train from what I've gathered. Bottom line is, keep to NOT eating refined sugar, and fasting, and your fat levels will drop.
