INHERITED SLOW METABOLISM - Research has proven obesity to be linked to genetic inheritance. Thus body weight can be influenced by genetic factors such as inherited slow combusion mechanism, endocrine factors, increased fat deposition, etc.

HORMONE SENSITIVE METABOLISM - Puberty, contraceptives, pregnancy, hysterectomy, fertility treatment or hormone replacement therapy often results in weight gain obesity.

LOW LEPTIN LEVELS - Leptin is a circulatory protein hormone produced by fat cells. Leptin regulates food intake by binding to specific receptors in the brain and thereby regulates neuroendocrine function and energy intake and expenditure. Deficiancies in Leptin are associated with obesity. Patients with high Leptin levels can eat almost anything without gaining weight. Patients with low Leptin levels suffer from an increased appetite and desire for food and everything they eat is changed into fat and stored. Causes of low Leptin levels include genetic factors, hormonal treatment, medication such as cortisone, antibiotics and anti-depressants, viral infection, emotional trauma and stress, anaestetics and compulsive eating habits.

OVER-EATING - Some people overload their metabolism so much that the body can't burn the excess food fast enough, so the food is stored as fat. When this happens regularly, the brain's ability to differentiate between hunger and cravings becomes diminished. Eventually it becomes extremely difficult to resist any craving for food and this leads to destructive cycle of obesity.
