In this episode of Fasting for Life, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling dive deep into the role of leptin in obesity and how it interacts with insulin to influence weight gain and hunger signals. They explore how fasting can be leveraged to improve leptin sensitivity and break the cycle of leptin resistance, which is a key driver of obesity. The hosts provide practical strategies for optimizing leptin levels through manageable fasting periods and intentional food choices that boost dopamine and serotonin when breaking a fast. Listeners will gain valuable insights into the science behind leptin and walk away with actionable steps to incorporate into their fasting lifestyle for sustainable results.
