hey guys I’m back and today we’re gonna

talk about hormones and the endocrine

system I’m gonna really try to make this

as simple as possible sometimes on my

youtube channel

I’ll get feedback telling me that

oversimplifying a body system right I

should you know I shouldn’t to make it

too simple because the body is very

complex and only certain people can

understand it so only if you graduate

from a certain university and you have a

certification can you talk about the

body

well in fact I disagree I think you

can’t understand the body but the

endocrine system sometimes sounds very

mysterious but really it’s a

communication system you have the

nervous system you have the endocrine

system they both allow communications to

occur in the body so let’s just take a

look at the endocrine system so you have

the gland that makes hormones ok

hormones are communication particles and

they deliver messages through the blood

these hormones are then sent to certain

tissues ok that have receptors so very

specific hormones go to very specific

receptors to do very specific functions

ok that’s the simplicity of it we have a

hormone communication it’s sent it gets

received and it does it’s certain

function ok there’s three types of

receptors you have receptors on the

surface of the cells okay membranes

receptors you have receptors inside the

cell of certain places and then you have

receptors that also go into the center

and nucleus okay the DNA like the flower

and hormones for example can go to

really penetrate the cell go right to

the DNA so they can affect genetics so

what happens then once this hormone is

connected there’s a little signal that

gets sent back to the gland

letting the gland know that that message

has been received and acknowledged so in

the endocrine system we call that

feedback loops so there are negative

feedback loops and there are positive

feedback loops I’m just going to talk

about the negative ones which basically

just tell the gland to turn off okay to

lower that hormone so that’s really what

the negative feedback is

it’s just a signal back to turn off the

gland because the function has been

complied with okay now in this

dictionary I’m just going to show you

the definition of the word

acknowledgement thing given or done in

recognition of the arrival or receipt of

something okay so if you order something

from my site I send you an email back

letting you know that it was shipped and

then in my side I get feedback from the

fulfillment center that that package was

delivered okay so that’s my

acknowledgement and when you’re talking

to someone they’re gonna acknowledge

what you said so that way you can feel

that they heard you okay but if they

don’t acknowledge you you might have the

tendency to keep talking okay to try to

get your point across that’s why it’s

very very dangerous to ignore your

spouse but the point is that the

acknowledgement tends to complete that

communication okay now why is that

important because when we deal with

hormones we’re dealing with also

something called hormone resistance okay

I don’t have you ever heard of insulin

resistance

well there’s also leptin resistance

cortisol resistance estrogen resistance

testosterone resistance and even thyroid

resistance this receptor is the superior

thing in this entire communication

platform so we have the receptor over

here that’s listening and then the

hormone and the gland is talking and

they connect and we have this this whole

normal function now this is a very

common problem especially when we get

into insulin resistance and even

cortisol resistance which I’m gonna do a

separate video on this now what this

receptor is doing it’s actually

protecting the body against excessive

communication of that hormone okay

that’s what this resistance is so we

have something that’s triggering the

gland to make too much of this hormone

and then the cells going to protect you

because too much of a certain hormone

can be bad especially when you get into

cortisol and you get into insulin it can

be very destructive on the body so when

you have insulin resistance you no

longer have this feedback loop this

negative feedback

going back to the gland to turn it off

okay so if we don’t have the feedback

then the gland never gets that

communication that this has been

connected to so it starts to increase

more in more communication to connect

now you’ve seen this in human

relationships right where someone just

keeps talking and talking and talking

and talking well the more you know that

person the more they’re gonna keep

talking so you might as well just listen

to them acknowledge them so they will

stop talking okay the same thing happens

the body if you block that listening

mechanism that receptor then the gland

will keep pumping out more and more

hormone now in the case of insulin

resistance you have from 5 to 9 X the

amount of that insulin that’s being

pumped out of the pancreas so you have

so much more insulin than you really

need and what’s happening is that

hormones trying to connect but it won’t

let it but really what’s happening is

that the reason why that gland is

pumping it out is because something is

triggering the gland to produce that

hormone in the first place so we have

this simple communication system that

it’s now very complex but if you

understand the basics you can see it

very simply what’s happening for example

insulin resistance and we will look it

up online Wikipedia which we know

everything in Wikipedia is truthful so

we can read this right here insulin

resistance the very beginning part it

says avoiding carbohydrates and sugars a

no carbohydrate diet or fasting can

reverse insulin resistance and they give

two references okay you can look this up

yourself okay so that’s very interesting

right so so one way to fix this

resistance problem is to stop

stimulating the gland with that trigger

that’s causing the problem the first

place and the reason of bringing this up

is many times when you go to the doctor

that individual will measure your

hormones and say you have too much of a

hormone or you have a hormone deficiency

call it a hyper or hypo okay and then

they’ll either give you a hormone or

they’ll give you medication that blocks

the hormone instead of it really

understanding the big picture okay

especially when we get into even like

hyperglycemia high blood sugar or

hypoglycemia so

what I want you to do is understand the

simplicity of what’s happening with this

communication system and realize that

there’s something triggering the gland

in the case of coarse salt which I’m

going to do a separate video on not

stress

okay so that’ll actually keep the body

pumping out excessive amounts of

cortisol and you’ll find out when I do

the video you’ll have high amounts of a

certain hormone

it’s called Cushing’s syndrome yet you

have all these symptoms of low cortisol

so it’s extremely confusing but if you

understand this you can understand it

very simply now in the case of insulin

resistance you have symptoms that are

too much insulin and symptoms that are

actually insulin deficiency so now

you’ll know why because it’s the

receptor so the receptor is definitely

the superior factor and this entire

communication network and one less

saying since we’re on the topic of

insulin resistance inflammation in

general can cause insulin resistance and

insulin resistance can cause

inflammation of course carbs will do it

frequent eating will do it and also if

you look up in certain resistance you’ll

see obesity is one of the causes of

insulin resistance which I disagree

because obesity is really a symptom of

other things definitely high levels of

insulin and insulin resistance so this

is really a symptom I mean it is true

that visceral fat will actually make

insulin resistance worse that’s true

okay but insulin resistance causes

elevated insulin which then causes

visceral fat so it can goes around and

around in a circle or sometimes you’ll

see this Oh a high-fat diet causes

insulin resistance and it’s gonna

ventually cause diabetes which is

totally a lie because the studies that

they do on high fat it’s on mice and if

you look at the actual diet it’s not

really just a high-fat diet it’s a high

fat and high sugar diet okay and that

actually compounds that that’s actually

worse than taking a diet that’s just

just high carbs if you combine the two

that’s even worse

okay guys so thanks for watching and I

hope that now you understand some of the

basics it makes more sense so if you

want more knowledge on how to create a

healthy body subscribe now and get daily

notifications damn

vacations that sounds weird well I’ll

just remind you on a daily basis how

about that
