Metabolic diet with globules
In contrast to the metabolic diet one does not get along with the 21-tägige metabolic cure or also hCG Diät without high expenditures for globuli, vitamins and other additives. The original hormone injections in the concept from the 1960s are nowadays replaced by the questionable sugar globules. Besides the extremely calorie-reduced diet, this is supposed to be the secret of successful weight loss: The body is supported primarily fat mass instead of losing water and muscles, side effects are reduced and the yo-yo effect is prevented.
Scientific proof of the effectiveness of this method does not give it so far however yet. The weight loss can probably best be explained by the only 500-800 kcal allowed per day. Anyone who wants to supply his body with all the necessary nutrients at such a low energy intake should pay very close attention to the macro- and micronutrients. Then the supply of vitamins or similar may also be justified. If you want to lose weight in a healthy way and keep the weight, you should focus on a lower deficit to prevent nutrient deficiency and ravenous hunger attacks.
Metabolic diet with leptin
Leptin is an endogenous hormone and is synthesized by fat cells. It is said to signal a feeling of satiety after food intake. The idea of using leptin as an appetite suppressant is therefore quite obvious.
Leptin is available in the form of homeopathic preparations, injections or tablets. These are often very expensive and ineffective: overweight people very often suffer from a more or less pronounced leptin resistance. The receptors of the hormone have lost their sensitivity to the signal substance.
As a result, the body has no feeling of satiety and is constantly hungry. Leptin resistance can be prevented: sport has been shown to increase the sensitivity of leptin receptors. Weight loss and giving up an unhealthy lifestyle also have a positive effect on sensitivity.
The body’s own leptin level can also be increased in a variety of ways. These include above all foods that have a low calorie density. Processed products, baked goods made from white flour, sweet fruits and sweets, on the other hand, should be reduced. They have an unfavorable effect on the leptin level. The positive properties of the body’s own hormone can therefore certainly be used to support a change in diet.
