What is leptin and why is it important and most of all, how does it affect my metabolism?

Leptin is considered the satiety hormone; the hormone is in our fat cells. It regulates our hunger and has a lot to do with our energy balance. When we lose weight " body fat" we feel less hunger but this Naturally decreases our energy balance. Leptin is one of the Key player in our body's homeostasis. So even when we lose weight our body still thinks it's homeostasis is our starting weight. Therefor your brain is continually fight you get you back to homeostasis. That is why the human yo-yo, is so coming. That is why statics show 95% of people regain the weight within 3 years of losing it. There are some other contributing factors, however leptin is the main player.

Most people have no clue how their body work or their anatomy, it is very important to now the mechanic of driving a car before you get behind a wheel. To be a good drive, you must learn to be an offensive and defensive driver.

Understanding Motility and Prokinetics in Gut Health

Understanding Motility and Prokinetics in Gut Health Introduction to Gut Motility Gut motility refers to the movement of contents through the digestive tract, primarily driven by a coordinated series of muscle contractions. These contractions, known as peristalsis, propel feces through the colon and eventually out of the body. Optimal gut motility is essential for nutrient absorption, digestion, and waste elimination. When motility is impaired, it can lead to conditions such as constipation, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction. This article unpacks motility, explores the concept of prokinetics, examines natural and dietary sources that stimulate gut motility, and reviews the current literature on this critical topic in gastroenterology. What Are Prokinetics? Prokinetics are substances—whether pharmaceutical, herbal, or dietary—that enhance gastrointestinal motility by stimulating the smooth muscles of the gut. By improving motility, they help ...

The Digestive Superfoods: Spirulina vs. Chlorella and Their Impact on Constipation

The Digestive Superfoods: Spirulina vs. Chlorella and Their Impact on Constipation When it comes to natural remedies for improving digestive health, spirulina and chlorella have captured attention for their powerful nutrient profiles and potential health benefits. Both of these algae-based superfoods have been highlighted not only for their ability to detoxify the body but also for their potential impact on one specific issue—a common yet troublesome condition, constipation. But how exactly do these nutrient-dense microalgae contribute to easing constipation? And are they truly effective in promoting a healthy gut? Below, we break down the science behind spirulina and chlorella and what they offer for digestive health. Understanding Constipation and Its Root Causes Constipation, a condition characterized by less frequent bowel movements or difficulty passing stool, affects millions worldwide. While occasional constipation is normal, chronic constipation ca...

Unlocking the Potential of Akkermansia: A Gut Health Revolution

Unlocking the Potential of Akkermansia: A Gut Health Revolution What Is the Microbiome? The human microbiome is a complex ecosystem of trillions of microorganisms living in and on our body, particularly within the gut. These microbes—comprising bacteria, fungi, viruses, and archaea—not only assist in digesting food but also play crucial roles in immunity, mood regulation, and overall health. Among these microscopic allies is Akkermansia muciniphila (often referred to as "Akkermansia"), a bacterium now gaining significant attention for its profound impact on gut health. What Is Akkermansia? Akkermansia muciniphila is a gram-negative, anaerobic bacterium discovered in 2004. It makes up roughly 3% of the total gut microbiota in healthy individuals and primarily resides in the mucus layer of the intestinal lining. Its unique trait lies in its ability to break down mucin—a key protein in the gut's mucus layer—making it essential for maintaining gut barrier function and pro...
