now I just assumed that everyone knows

the answer to this question okay and

over the weekend last weekend I was

asking some people about it and I found

that actually no one knew the answer so

I decided to do a video on it you might

already know this but I just want to

clarify it because it’s very important

why nutrients get depleted when you eat

sugar and foods that are like we’re

flying carbohydrates okay and I’m

talking about also juice and sodas and

like liquid sugar so very simply in your

energy factory called the mitochondria

there is an engine that involves fuel

and oxygen okay and in order to burn

glucose which is a carbohydrate there

are very important and essential

cofactors or helper nutrients or Co

enzymes which are slightly different now

you could look at both of these as the

keys that start the car or the engine be

one especially b1 zinc

especially potassium magnesium chromium

manganese calcium other B vitamins like

b3 b6 b5 are essential and necessary in

the burning of glucose so this process

in your mitochondria which is energy

factory cannot work without these so if

you’re consuming pure glucose without

these your body is going to have to get

it from somewhere so it’s going to pull

it from your reserves and it’s going to

start depleting you of these nutrients

specifically and this is why when you

consume glucose without nutrients you

start having issues like for example if

you consume a lot of glucose you start

becoming deficient in b1 and you get

nervous your heart races you can’t sleep

I mean there’s a lot of other symptoms

like brain fog apotheke zinc you might

start noticing little white spots in

your nails your immune system is weak

your testosterone goes down when you’re

missing potassium your heart rate starts

going higher and higher because

potassium is the brakes

the accelerator on the heartbeats so

there’s a lot of things that can happen

when you consume straight sugar now if

you were going to do cane sugar or

molasses which has all the nutrients

you’re not going to deplete these now

you’re gonna have other problems because

of the glucose but if you’re consuming

sugar with nutrients obviously it’s not

going to have that effect but so many

people consume refined carbohydrates

white rice for example you’re really

going to deplete b1 refined grains

turning the glucose and you’re going to

deplete these now whole grains are a

little different

whole grains do have some of the B

vitamins they have the minerals they

have zinc but the problem is they also

have in the brand part phytic acid which

blocks the minerals so you’re going to

create a deficiency through that way now

one thing about vitamin C is that

vitamin C is very similar to glucose in

this chemistry and if there’s glucose

going into the cell okay at the same

time by the masse is there your body

will uptake glucose and not bottom

you’ll see that’s why you start becoming

deficient in vitamin C because the

glucose can override this mechanism so

you start seeing your gums start

bleeding when you’re brushing your teeth

you start getting tired that’s like a

mild subclinical version of scurvy so

this is why if you’re new to my channel

you need to get on the healthy keto and

intermittent fasting plan I put a link
