Slender Wonder Fochville

Slender Wonder was developed by a South-African doctor and has between 200 and 240 accredited doctors countrywide. This safe and affective weight loss programme has evolved over 40 years with tens of thousands of patients being treated successfully in South-Africa.

The programme is based on treating low leptin levels and has three components: a low GI eating plan, supplements in the form of capsules and a series of injections. The injections bring the leptin levels back into balance and help rid the body of "abnormal" fat in a safe and controlled way.
Leptin is a hormone that is secreted by fat cells in white adipose tissue and has been found to be a signal to the brain, thus having primary influence on body weight. These Leptin levels may drop during a person's lifespan due to a number of reasons, which then may cause obesity.

Treating the symptoms and putting patients on a strict diet may work. However, if the Leptin levels are not stabilized first, patients will put the weight back on once they start eating normal again. This is what makes the Slender Wonder programme different from other weight loss programmes!
