interesting read. So does anyone actually supplement to help control leptin? I mean I use calcium and fish oil already but I'm still fat and hungry all the time wtf!
Hunger has always seemed like mostly a mental thing to me. Living mostly a sedentary lifestyle can create boredom; when bored I tend to think about food more often, leading to hunger. When engaged in activities and a strong sense of focus you don't think about eating and aren't hungry. Examples of activities can be outdoor jobs, exercise or just really into reading something.
Your body would make sense the other way around, since you aren't really burning many calories sitting in a chair, but that's the way unfortunately how it works. Maybe theres a change in Leptin levels when focused.
Great read. Much more accessible than this hour long talk... and a good reminder to lay off the bullshit processed sugars. There's a good chance leptin insensitivity is the biggest culprit in the obesity epidemic today.
