ISIS™ Comprehensive Weight Control Program
The most widely disseminated CDC research statistics on
American obesity tell us that 63% of adult Americans have
a Body Mass Index (BMI) in excess of 25.0 and are
therefore overweight; more than a quarter surpass 30.0,
having been declared obese. Perhaps the most riveting
statistics concern obesity in kids: research shows that
childhood obesity has more than tripled over the past two
decades. The U.S. Surgeon General report declared that
obesity is responsible for 300,000 deaths each year.
These overwhelming research statistics reveal an
alarming obesity trend, the need for diagnosis, and a call
to action.

● Obesity ISIS™ Comprehensive Weight Control
A program for Life
Where does it start? According to the U.S. Surgeon General, an estimated 40 percent of overweight
children and 70 percent of obese children will remain overweight or obese through adulthood. This suggests
the obesity epidemic will be with us for at least another generation or more.
The millions of children who are either overweight or obese accounts for the dramatic surge in type II
diabetes. As with their adult counterparts, obese children are far more likely than their contemporaries to
suffer any number of concomitant health problems and risks.
The child obesity crisis has led to a renewed interest in earlier healthy food starts. According to a recent
report by Mintel, baby food and drink companies are looking for new options to boost sales within the $3.5
billion-plus baby food and drink market. The report states, “Toddler-focused foods and organic products are
new avenues manufacturers can explore to address new markets within the category.
"There is a stronger emphasis placed on nutrition and combating obesity in the younger years than ever
before," said Erin Fowler, analyst for Mintel. "Parents are looking for the proper nutritional mix for their
children earlier. However, they are still feeling the pressures of a time-deprived society, so more convenient
offerings that can promote better health for toddlers are a necessity.”

Leptin From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leptin (from the Greek word leptos, meaning thin) is a 16 kDa protein hormone that plays a key role in
regulating energy intake and energy expenditure, including the regulation (decrease) of appetite and
(increase) of metabolism.
The effects of leptin were observed by studying mutant obese mice that arose at random within a mouse
colony at the Jackson Laboratory in 1950. These mice were massively obese and hyperphagic. Leptin itself
was discovered in 1994 by Jeffrey M. Friedman and colleagues at the Rockefeller University through the
study of those mutant mice. The Ob(Lep) gene (Ob for obese and Lep for leptin) is located on chromosome
7 in humans. Leptin is produced by adipose tissue and interacts with six types of receptor (LepRa–LepRf).
LepRb is the only receptor isoform that contains active intracellular signaling domains. This receptor is
present in a number of hypothalamic nuclei, where it exerts its effects. Importantly, leptin binds to the ventral
medial nucleus of the hypothalamus, known as the "satiety center." Binding of leptin to this nucleus signals
to the brain that the body has had enough to eat—a sensation of satiety. A very small group of humans
possess homozygous mutations for the leptin gene which lead to a constant demand for food, resulting in
severe obesity. This condition can be successfully treated by the administration of recombinant human
leptin..
Large quantities of leptin are present in ISIS™ 100% Natural Elixir for Life™, and although considered an
exogenous source of leptin, it contains the synergistic properties to insure absorption into tissue cells and is
able to pass the blood-brain barrier. This is a potent tool to be used to combat obesity and maintain healthy
weight. The following study documents leptin levels found in Elixir for Life™ vs. whole milk.
Abstract
We studied leptin content in Elixir for Life™, milk and plasma during the first month of lactation, and
investigated relationships between selected milk components and milk leptin in five multiparous dairy cows.
Elixir for Life™/milk yield and composition were measured on days 0, 10, 20, and 30 of lactation. Leptin was
assayed using a multi-species leptin RIA kit. Leptin concentration was 56 % lower in mature milk (day 10)
than Elixir for Life™ (13.90 vs. 6.14 µg/l; p < 0.001), but remained steady over the twenty days afterwards.
Daily secretion of leptin into mature milk was 28 % lower than into Elixir for Life™ (173.2 µg/d vs. 220.0 µg/d;
p = 0.09) notwithstanding an 80 % increase in production. Elixir for Life™ and milk leptin levels correlated
with fat (0.90; p < 0.001) and choline phospholipid (0.76; p < 0.05). Plasma and milk leptin decreased during
the first month, but remained higher in milk, and highest in Elixir for Life™. Thus, leptin is present in large
quantities in Elixir for Life™, less so and more variably in untreated milk, and is likely to be decreased in
skimmed milk. These findings have implications for the use of untreated milk and Elixir for Life™-based
(functional) food products.
“Untreated” is emphasized here as further studies have found that the de-fatting of colostrum and milk, the
pasteurization and the homogenization processes, all greatly reduce the amounts of leptin found naturally in
whole Elixir for Life™ and whole milk. It is critical to look for only 100% Whole and Natural Elixir for Life™
products to insure you are getting the real deal.
Leptin is a powerful protein hormone that, according to scientific research, regulates the ob (obese) gene. If
consumers are frustrated by an inability to lose weight no matter how hard they try, there are three main
reasons for their problem:
The issue is genetic or there is an imbalance of hormones. The body cannot accurately regulate the ob
(obese gene).
Our products not only contain leptin, but the entire range of substances needed to successfully maintain a
healthy weight. You need the complete whole package in order for the process to work correctly with your
body. One isolated substance is not able to do what it was intended to do without the aid of the rest of the
package. That’s what synergy is all about.
Scientists have known about leptin since 1949; however, in 1995 a study was done on mice which concluded
that leptin was responsible for regulating the obese gene. In short, this means that scientists actually found
what made mice obese: the absence of Leptin. Since then, massive amounts of research has been invested
into fully understanding the benefits surrounding Leptin.
When scientists were able to reduce the size of an obese mouse by 30% in just two weeks using daily
injections of Leptin, the picture below was pasted in nearly every magazine and news program.
Over 300,000 people die in the U.S. each year from obesity. Obesity is both a chronic disease and a
behavioral problem. Treating just one often results in failure. With this in mind, scientists knew that if they
had proven, successful tests on mice, Leptin could work on obese humans also.
Taken daily, Leptin decreases the size of the fat cell itself. Unlike other cells in your body, the fat cell does
not "split" when it gets too large, it just keeps growing. With the presence of leptin, fat cells reduce in size
until they reach their normal size. This gives your body a better look as you lose inches and it also allows
you to control your weight as Leptin both suppresses your appetite and increases your metabolism.
Inside the body the instructions to make Leptin are carried by a gene that is sometimes defective in the ob
(obese) mouse or human. This means that if you are obese, chances are the gene that makes Leptin in your
body is damaged. No Leptin = Weight Gain. Result: Because the gene is defective, leptin cannot be
produced, thus weight cannot be controlled.
Daily injections of leptin cause weight loss in a dose dependent manner, according to a study conducted at
St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital from April 1997 through October 1998. In the first phase of the trial, both
normal weight and obese participants given leptin lost small to moderate amounts of weight over a four week
period. Obese subjects continued on placebo or leptin for an additional 20 weeks. In both phases of the
trial, subjects who lost the most weight and body fat received the two highest leptin doses.
Measuring leptin resistance.
Studies indicate that obese individuals may be "leptin resistant", indicating an imbalance of hormones. One
theory of leptin resistance is that the high level of serum leptin in obese individuals saturates the transport
system resulting in smaller amounts crossing the blood brain barrier. But Dr. Ken Fujioka of Scripps Clinic
offers evidence that exogenously administered leptin does cross the blood-brain barrier of obese patients,
despite very high serum leptin concentrations. ISIS™ 100% Whole and Natural Elixir for Life™ is the most
viable and Naturally potent exogenous source of leptin available.
Histamine, leptin and feeding behavior.
Leptin and brain histamine have some striking similarities. Both follow a circadian rhythm and have an effect
on energy intake and expenditure. So it is not surprising that a recent study conducted at Oita Medical
University in Hasama, Japan has shown that hypothalamic histamine plays a role in regulation of feeding
behavior via the leptin pathway. In a series of rodent experiments, researchers found that histamine turnover
was increased by leptin injection, histamine depletion decreased the anorexic effect of leptin, and defects in
leptin signaling, such as occur in ob/ob and db/db mice, decreased the concentration of histamine in the
brain.
Human leptin studies have only been conducted over the past few years, and most of what we know about
leptin stems from experiments on rodent models of obesity. There are two known types of leptin mutations
which cause obesity in rodents, a defect of the ob gene itself and in the long form of the ob receptor.
Leptin is a hormone produced by fat tissue that regulates energy intake and expenditure. The name comes
from the Greek word leptos, meaning thin. Some scientists refer to it as the "master hormone" because it
regulates a number of other endocrine functions, including reproduction and hormonal regulation.
Although not identified until 1994 by Jeffrey Friedman, the search for the ob gene began more than 20 years
ago when Douglas Coleman, then a researcher at the Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, surgically
joined the blood vessels of an obese and normal size mouse, and found that the fat mouse immediately
started to lose weight. This was the first clue that the blood contains a biochemical messenger which plays a
vital role in the regulation of appetite and metabolism.
For nearly a decade scientists have known that leptin plays an important fat-burning role in humans. But the
map of leptin’s path through the body – the key to understanding how and why the hormone works – is still
incomplete. Many studies have found that the administration of leptin alone may not be effective in treating
obesity, and may actually have some undesirable side effects from high serum concentrations of leptin. This
can happen if leptin is not utilized and absorbed into the fat and tissue cells of the body (leptin resistance).
However, when administered through the consumption of ISIS™ 100% Whole and Natural Elixir for Life™, the
synergistic property of Elixir for Life™ supports and enables the absorption of leptin into the fat and tissues,
passing the blood/brain barrier and making it an effective tool against obesity.
