Leptin och leptinresistans och bränna fett i st f socker

[jenithasta@gmail.com]

Jag har från min läkare på vårdcentralen fått ett brev med följande lydelse:

"Leptin är inte något prov vi tar på vårdcentralen. Jag vet inte om det 

tas inom sjukvården heller, utom i forskningssyfte. Anledningen till 

att vi inte tar detta hormonprov här är att det knappast skulle tjäna 

något syfte (utom möjligen ur nyfikenhetsstillande synpunkt). 

Behandling av t.ex. övervikt och diabetes ändras inte beroende på 

svaret på ett sådant prov."

 

I Rosedale, Ron; Colman, Carol (2009-10-13). The Rosedale Diet (pp. 166-167). William Morrow Paperbacks. Kindle Edition. 

står det under rubriken 'Leptin':

"The most reliable test for monitoring leptin levels is the 

radioimmunoassay (RIA), which utilizes an antibody that responds to 

leptin in a fasting blood sample. This test will tell you whether or 

not you have leptin resistance. If your level is in a healthy range— 

the optimal fasting leptin level is between 4 and 6 ng/ dL and up to 9 

ng/ dL is acceptable— your cells are sensitive to leptin’s signals. 

You are a fat burner as nature intended you to be, and it is unlikely 

that you will have a weight problem. (If you lower your leptin levels 

to optimal levels, as you most certainly will on the Rosedale Diet, it 

is highly unlikely that you will continue to have a weight problem 

even if you started out with one.) Of course, we don’t want leptin 

levels to go too low. Anything below –4 ng/ dL is a sign of either 

malnutrition, usually accompanied by very low body fat, or a genetic 

inability to produce leptin that results in obesity. (If a woman’s 

leptin level falls below 3, generally caused by very low stores of 

body fat due to inadequate food intake or intensive exercise, she will 

stop menstruating.) If your fasting leptin level is 10 ng/ dL or 

higher, you will most certainly benefit from the leptin-sensitizing 

program outlined in this book. Most obese people have extremely 

elevated leptin levels: 20, 30, even 40 ng/ dL! Yet within only two to 

three weeks on the Rosedale Diet, almost everyone experiences a 

dramatic decline in leptin levels. At the same time, they eat less 

because they do not feel hungry as often as they used to. They no 

longer experience food cravings and have little difficulty following 

the diet. If your leptin level doesn’t fall as quickly as it should 

(younger people often have quicker results than older people), you 

need to be especially careful about following the diet and perhaps add 

extra nutritional supplements. But if you follow the program, I 

promise that your leptin sensitivity will improve and your fasting 

leptin level will fall. Leptin: 4 to 6 ng/ dL optimal; up to 9 ng/ dL 

acceptable; 10 + ng/ dL high."

 

Vad skall jag tro? Hjälp!!!

Varför vill du testa Leptin specefikt?

 

Och jag håller nog med läkaren.. har alldrig hört talas om att man tar sådana prover annat än i forskningssyfte.
