Leptin and Fat Loss During the HCG Diet

Posted under HCG and Leptin | 3 Comments

Leptin is the Master Fat Hormone, and it works by signaling the hypothalamus of the brain. The questions for fat loss now under study are starting to look at how leptin and HCG interact. The idea is that they may be using the same or similar brain receptors. It is a great topic for understanding more about how HCG works.

I’ve written a modern hypothesis for why hCG prevents starvation in my new book, Weight-Loss Apocalypse. Leptin is the link between hCG and energy homeostasis during the hCG protocol. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.

Hi, Robin:

It is nice to meet a like-minded thinker. Your link did not take me to anyplace on your site where I could see what you have to say about your hypothesis, nor could I find any mention of it by searching several pages there. Researchers have been looking into the link between leptin and hCG for some time now. Indeed, just moments ago I did a search on Pubmed, for the terms ‘leptin AND hCG’ together, and came up with 69 published articles on the subject since 1997.

All the best,
Dennis
