Can you please clarify what these two words mean and how they affect my body. My weight hasn’t changed in years. I’ve been eating both good and bad foods while detoxing and exercise. So what foods are blood sugar safe?.what is Leptin and Adiponectin?, and it’s effect on our bodies?.
Hi, Alisha. Leptin and adiponectin are hormones involved in fat tissue and appetite regulation, and are often out of balance in people who are overweight and/or have insulin resistance. Foods that help put them back in balance include omega-3 fats, spices such as chili pepper and cinnamon, lean proteins, and complex carbohydrates high in fiber and low in sugar. The Trim Down Club program is based on putting these hormones in balance.
Which one of these are the aging hormone?. I have been aging too quickly since I was 18 and can’t change my weight for the best. I have hair under my chin, and cannot conceive. Is it the sugar Im always craving?
I notice that there are supplements to help support the hormones. Are these ok to take?. Also which brand of dark choc. almonds are ok to consume?.
Hi, Alisha. Yes, I am a nutritionist. Hopefully you are being followed by a healthcare provider familiar with your case. You may have special nutritional needs, such as increased calcium intake, and it is worth clarifying with him or her.
The types of hormones that are supported in this program and by the products we support are not geared so much toward what you are describing, but the ingredients may support your weight loss efforts.
As far as dark chocolate almonds go, the best ones are those with the fewest ingredients and the highest percent of cacao. Trader Joe’s, CostCo, and Whole Foods Market carry excellent brands.
