today we’re going to talk about how to

neutralize the bad effects from

consuming sugar

breads pasta alcohol

and other things not that you would ever

go up in your program and sheet but

let’s say your friends and family and

you want to share this information with

them I’m going to show you how to

counter some of the bad side effects

that can occur when you eat junk foods

and other things now what’s interesting

about this topic is if you go to the

experts and I’m talking about even

organizations like the American arm

Association they will still allow you to

consume sugar and alcohol and as long as

it’s part of a balanced diet it’s

totally fine they don’t see too much

problem with it like even for sugar they

allow us nine teaspoons of sugar for men

and six teaspoons for women now this is

not even counting the carbohydrates in

fact for carbohydrates they recommend up

to 65 percent of all your calories can

be carbohydrates that just blows me away

you have these experts in the field and

I guess what makes a person expert is

how much education they have how many

degrees they have

I mean what’s so ironic about that is

this is just my personal belief and this

is the generality

um I think the more education a person

has the more they’re educated in a

certain thought pattern and they have a

lessened ability to think freely I mean

I’ll even give an example with myself I

went through pre-med and then I went

through Chiropractic College which is

definitely different than medical school

but I quickly found out there’s just not

enough time to learn the quantity of

data that they cram down your throat so

what we did as a substitute is memorize

okay we memorize information regurgitate

it on a test get through the test and

then get on to the next subject and so

there’s a really big difference between

learning the information understanding

it being able to apply it and memorizing

it when you memorize something it does

not mean that you learn it and it can

apply it and even that you understand it

so this is what I’ve been doing the last

30 years after I graduated

taking time to really understand the

concepts observe it question it make

sure it’s true because who knows if all

this information that they’re teaching

in the universities is actually true or

not and this is my own personal

experience

I felt that after I graduated I felt I

was dumber than when I went in because I

was filled with so many confusions I

didn’t have a chance to apply this

information but they do have internships

things that help you apply so I got a

little distracted I digressed let’s get

back to the topic at hand all right

number one sugar what happens when you

eat sugar is you have several things

going on you have a spike in your blood

sugars especially if you eat something

that is high on the glycemic index which

basically means it spikes your sugar

fast and the faster it spikes the sugar

the worse off your health will be and so

we have this negative effect from the

glycemic index of foods but we also have

another index I’m not sure if you ever

heard about this but it’s called the

glycemic load which looks at the

quantity of carbohydrates in that food

so that’s a little bit different because

they take the glycemic index and then

they multiply it times the amount of

carbohydrates divided by 100 get this

number and then that is put on another

scale so for example you might eat

something low on the glycemic index okay

but it’s not as low on the glycemic lobe

but like watermelon for example it’s low

in the glycemic index but it’s higher on

the glycemic low because there’s a lot

of carbohydrates in it okay then you

have pineapple which is considered low

but on the glycemic load it’s higher and

then you have a banana which is

considered low but the glycemic load is

higher so my only point on that is that

when you have more fiber you can buffer

this sugar response so the first thing

you need to know is that if you eat

sugar make sure you also add fiber with

it or close to that meal to help buffer

the response of the sugar the more fiber

you eat with the sugar the less the

insulin response and one of the problems

with eating sugar is it triggers insulin

and fiber is one of the two things that

won’t trigger insulin the second thing

when you consume refined sugar okay you

are going to deplete certain nutrients

specifically

or mostly potassium and vitamin B1 but

you also deplete calcium magnesium and

zinc and even some other things but

potassium and B1 are the two big ones

that will get depleted because as your

body either burns the sugar or stores

the sugar it takes potassium and B1 to

be able to perform this so if you end up

eating refined sugar you need to take

potassium maybe you have a big salad as

well as maybe taking some nutritional

yeast or just vitamin B1 because that

will at least counter the deficiencies

that you just created because when the

potassium goes lower your pulse rate

will go higher when your B1 goes lower

your anxiety and nervous tension goes

higher all right the next point about

sugar and this is kind of interesting if

you’re a diabetic or a pre-diabetic or

have a lot of sugar going through your

bloodstream because you just ate sugar

there’s going to be a lot of damage to

forward parts of your body the eye

the kidney

the nervous system which includes your

brain

and the inside of your arteries and so

you can think about the sugar as

something that’s rusting out or

corroding the body tissue so because

you’re getting a lot of free radical

damage in something called oxidation

so there are some things that you can do

to counter that to greatly reduce the

complications of not just diabetes but

the complications of all the sugar

that’s flowing through your bloodstream

so if you happen to know someone who ate

a lot of sugar or know someone who has

diabetes including yourself this is what

I would also include benphotamine okay

which is a type of B1 that is fat

soluble that protects the nerves it

protects the eyes it protects the kidney

it protects the heart and then alpha

lipoic acid both of those act as a

powerful antioxidant to counter the

complications of diabetes or if there’s

a lot of sugar going through your body

now the next point I want to bring up

about sugar is just if you have extra

sugar let’s say you have something

called the dawn phenomena where you wake

up in the morning and you have all this

like you didn’t even eat sugar just went

higher in your body or let’s say you ate

sugar and the sugar is high you can burn

it off by exercising you can go for a

long walk like 20 minutes or 30 minutes

and burn off that extra sugar so that’s

another way to counter the sugar that’s

flowing through your body in addition to

that apple cider vinegar greatly helps

regulate your blood sugars you mix it

with water like a tablespoon and it will

greatly improve your blood sugars as

well as lower your insulin

cinnamon is another very potent herb or

spice to lower your blood sugars and as

a supplement berberine is another one

that is almost comparable to metformin

to help regulate blood sugars and

without the side effects the next point

I want to bring up about sugar is

something called the insulin index we

talked about how sugar can cradle these

problems but what about insulin itself

because when you eat refined

carbohydrates or sugar you jack up

insulin and the lower things are on the

insulin index the better they are the

higher they are

the worse off you are okay so at the

very lowest point on the insulin index

you have pure fats as you start going up

the scale normally fat doesn’t come as

fat it comes with other things like

protein for example so the more fat it

comes with the protein the lower the

insulin Spike so for example if you ate

egg whites compared to the yolk that

would be a much higher insulin Spike

than if you ate the whole egg with the

yolk if you ate nuts for example that

are lower in fat versus a pecan or a

macadamia nut is going to be a big

difference in where that is on the

insulin index

and then if we take a protein that has

like no fat in it that’s very very high

on the insulin index so whey protein

powder is really bad for your blood

sugars so the reason I’m bringing that

up is that if you add more fat to your

meal you’ll buffer the insulin response

now we can combine all this together

let’s say you have a salad with all the

phytonutrients that can actually counter

some of the uh the free radical damage

from the sugar right and then we add the

oil olive oil to help buffer any type of

insulin response there and then we also

add vinegar because I mentioned apple

cider vinegar lowering your blood sugars

we can add balsamic vinaigrette now you

have this amazing countering effect

basically you’re just having salad with

dressing to help buffer the bad effects

from sugar all right the next thing you

could do to counter the bad effects from

sugar and other things would be just to

do fasting okay what does fasting do it

turns on all the repair genes in your

body so your body is going to go in this

repair mode and very potently repair

damage from things that you just did

whether

from alcohol refined carbs or just pure

sugar

so

fasting is a very important thing also

fasting will stimulate your own body’s

antioxidants and that will counter the

free radical damage from the sugar the

next point I want to bring up is about

your brain if given the choice between

glucose or sugar

and ketones your brain will choose

ketones over sugar

so how can you apply that let’s say for

example you eat something really sugary

well your brain is going to suck that

right in right it’s going to affect your

cognitive skills your your mood and all

sorts of things right if you took MCT

oil which turns into ketones really fast

so that will act as a substitute so your

brain will grab the ketones instead of

the sugar and at least mentally you’re

going to feel a lot better than if you

didn’t do that let’s say for example you

went off the program and you had some

alcohol how can you counter that well

you have a hangover right I’m going to

show you how to counter that but then

you also have the damage that it’s done

to the liver so there’s an enzyme your

liver produces

to turn that alcohol into another

chemical it’s called acetaldehyde which

is like 30 times more toxic than actual

alcohol and so the bad feeling that you

get when you drink alcohol like a

hangover is from that byproduct it’s

kind of like an intermediate chemical in

the process of trying to break down

alcohol and so you can take vitamin B1

to help counter that Toxin and that will

reduce your hangover the other problem

with alcohol it’s very dehydrating so if

you were to take some electrolytes okay

and more water you would feel better as

well because your brain is now

dehydrated some people do pickle juice

you can also do electrolyte powder you

can add sea salt with more water to

counter that the other really cool thing

you can do is take the herb milk thistle

which has very special properties for

your liver okay it protects the liver it

reduces the effect of alcohol destroying

the cells and this other condition

called autophagy which is the recycling

of damaged tissue in your body it will

actually increase that all right number

three drugs okay so this goes beyond

sugar or refined carbs and alcohol let’s

say you take medication there are some

side effects that are going to occur if

you took milk thistle that would protect

your liver but here’s the catch a lot of

medications use the same enzymes as milk

thistle so you don’t want to take it at

the same time okay because that might

decrease the effect of the drug I would

just recommend take the milk thistle at

a different time of the day so that way

of the protection but you don’t

interfere with the drug a couple little

points about drugs metformin depletes

B12 and B1 so you want to take those two

drugs to prevent a condition called

lactic acid doses which is very

dangerous statins deplete consume Q10 so

you want to take more colenzyme to Q10

if you take statins antibiotics kill off

your good bacteria and then you end up

with a yeast infection

anytime you take an antibiotic you

should always take a probiotic at the

same time and acids destroy the acid in

the stomach putting you in a situation

you now are going to have a hard time

absorbing minerals killing off viruses

and other bacteria also take apple cider

vinegar and water and betaine

hydrochloride most of those remedies

will probably fix your acid reflux

anyway all right the next point about

grains whether that’s bread pasta cereal

crackers biscuits things like that

grains are filled with phytic acid which

blocks trace minerals and other minerals

like zinc iron iodine calcium magnesium

manganese and many other minerals so if

you’re doing a lot of grain products you

want to make sure that you replace these

trace minerals and minerals and it just

so happens that the two top best foods

for doing that would be organ Meats like

liver and that gives you really good

bioavailable zinc and iron and other

minerals like selenium but also

shellfish will do it when you consume

fish that’s high in mercury that could

be very problematic to various things

like your thyroid so you want to take

the antidote to Mercury and that is

selenium selenium binds up with Mercury

making Mercury no longer toxic to the

body and so the fish that are high in

mercury are like shark swordfish and

tuna Seafood that are low in mercury are

like salmon Cod oyster sardines shrimp

and canned tuna that’s light and there

are many more all right number six let’s

say you ate too much sodium or just

table salt right or you had MSG

monosodium glutamate which is a lot of

sodium and you feel all swollen and

puffy you can take potassium to counter

that so the more sodium chloride you

have or the more sodium you have the

more potassium you need to counter that

so that would definitely be like leafy

greens or a big salad couple last points

on this topic if you found that you ate

too much food and you feel bloated you

could take betaine hydrochloride and or

outside of vinegar to speed up the

digestion to how help you reduce the

bloating next Point oxalates let’s say

you ate a lot of spinach or almonds that

are high in oxalates which tend to

irritate your joints or increase your

risk for kidney stones you can take

Dairy that has calcium to counter the

oxalates this is why people that take

spinach also might have some feta cheese

with it and also if you add lemon to it

you get the citrates to also bind with

the oxalate stones to prevent kidney

stones so calcium and citrate will

counter oxalates and last point when you

go into ketogenic diet

you’re going to get rid of fluid and you

might also find that you’re low on

electrolytes and B vitamins I would

recommend using nutritional yeast now if

you haven’t seen this video on what

would happen if you gave up sugar for 14

days it’s really interesting I put it up
