How hormones in your fat cells cause you to lose weight

this is a video by a guy named Sean Croxton who's studied why the body stores excess fat in places we dont want that fat to go and he talks about how a hormone called Leptin can either cause you to gain more fat or lose more fat.

Basically leptin is a hormone that is secreted from the fat cells in your body. It sends messages to your brain telling it to increase or decrease your metabolism or to increase or decrease hunger. The more leptin cells in the blood stream going to the brain the more your body wants to INCREASE your metabolism and DECREASE your hunger. Your fat cells secrete lots of leptin when you have too much excess fat around the body. When you have too little fat cells leptin cells tell your body to DECREASE metabolim (the rate at which you burn fat) and INCREASE hunger (so you can have more motivation to seek food). I'll talkmore about this on my show. Hope you learn something.
