Leptin Resistance Nutritional Support Protocol
These supplements and dietary changes will improve Leptin sensitivity and return Leptin levels to normal range. -From The Rosedale Diet by Ron Rosedale, M.D.
 

 

Lifestyle Recommendations:

1. Check Leptin Levels - ideal levels are 4-9 ng/dl.

2. Avoid stress and extra obligations.

3. Avoid alcohol consumption and smoking.

4. Participate in a regular balanced exercise program that includes wearing a pedometer to ensure that you collect steps and move more. High intensity short bursts (20-60 seconds) of activity during the day is recommended to enhance growth hormone release. Also engage in resistance training that works all major muscle groups (work each group at least 2 times a week).

1. Don't overdo protein. Eat 2 eggs for breakfast or 1 scoop of PaleoMeal whey protein with Omega Marine Liquid added, and 3 oz of protein for lunch and dinner.

2. Eat three meals - don’t graze.

3. Eat mostly chicken, fish, nuts, vegetables, avocado and olives (see recipes in book).

4. The ideal oils to consume are almond oil, avocado oil, macadamia nut oil and olive oil.5. Avoid all sugars. Replace sugar with the polyol sugar xylitol.

6. Avoid white flour and all refined carbohydrates including cereals and pasta.

7. Get a balance of omega 3's (salmon, mackerel, herring, sardines) and omega 9 fats (olive oil, olives, almonds, hazelnuts, avocados).

8. Avoid hydrogenated vegetable oils and fried foods.

9. Carry PaleoMeal Packets and/or PaleoBars with you throughout the day to prevent missing meals or snacks.
