hello dr. Berg here in this video we’re

going to talk about insulin resistance

and vitamin C okay the relationship

insulin resistance causes excessive

amount of production of insulin so you

have high insulin that’s a pre-diabetic

State and it’s diabetes as well that

will deplete your vitamin C reserves

okay so vitamin C deficiencies not only

can come from not consuming enough

vitamin C from your vegetables but it

can come from high levels of insulin

okay so the primary target for vitamin C

deficiency is the vascular system okay

so take a look we got the blood vessel

here and what happens is you have this

little lining around the blood vessel

it’s called the epithelial wall

epithelium it’s a very tiny single cell

wall of cells that allows exchange

between the lymphatic system right on

the outside of your blood vessel the

function of this epithelial wall is

fluid filtration so it filters fluids

like electrolytes and fluids and if you

think about it goes through the kidney

and you filter blood as urine so this is

what lines it as well to allow for the

filtration so it’s a filtration it’s a

blood vessel tone mechanism so basically

has receptors for measuring blood

pressure so vasoconstriction and

vasodilation so that’s probably why

insulin resistance will cause high blood

pressure and a lot of people white blood

cell defense so you have this lymphatic

system here this is like the immigration

stamp of approval so if it goes through

there and you don’t get down stamp of

approval from immigration you get this

immune response and it creates

inflammation in all sorts of a cascade

of issues and really what happens when

you become insulin resistant you create

a problem with vitamin C so vitamin C

can no longer build the collagen in

certain places so therefore we don’t we

have a little break in this cell this

little wall right here because the

collagen it’s all collagen

then what happens we have an immune

reaction and then it’s called a lesion

it’s kind of like leaky gut but in the

arteries so we have number one vitamin C

deficiency that comes from high insulin

and then we get the immune reaction

inflammation and then it’s signals

a band-aid from the liver called LDL

it’s called bad cholesterol it’s not

really bad

it’s just LDL comes in there and starts

to form a patch okay and then you have

Caleta you have a calcium that comes in

there that helps and other connective

tissue and that’s really the chain

reaction of events that happens when you

get a clogged artery but it starts way

over here

unnecessarily people are targeting

cholesterol being the villain it’s not

it’s late in the chain of events it’s

trying to help you and if you have any

questions or confusions or doubts that

it’s not cholesterol watch the video

that I put down below that will explain

it because your body makes 3,000

milligrams of Cluster every single day

so you don’t even eat a fraction of that

and so it’s that’s not the culprit

it’s the refined sugar that’s like

insulin that then create this whole

cascade of problems this little wall

right here the endothelium actually has

properties that are anti clotting

factors okay so what those get disrupted

again it sets up the whole body to form

a clot right here but it all stems from

the slide of your C deficiency and if we

take it earlier it’s high insulin so

again it could be that you’re not

consuming enough vitamin C from the diet

or it could be this sugar okay so the

foods that are high in vitamin C are the

Greens of leafy greens of salads bell

peppers have massive amounts of vitamin

C chili peppers parsley cabbage even

organ meats okay not that you’re going

to eat that but that has vitamin C so

you really want to get the best of both

worlds you want to get enough at and C

from the diet and you want to cut out

the sugar another symptom the vitamin C

deficiency is would be bleeding gums or

like your gums are swollen peri down

disease or spider veins I’ll do I’ll do

a separate video just on that so number

one fix insulin resistance and number

two get enough vitamin C from your diet

I’ll put some links down below if you if

you need to know how to fix and some

resistance thanks for watching hey you

probably already subscribed but if you

haven’t press this little button down

below and I will keep you updated
