did you realize that diabetes is the

fastest-growing disease on planet earth

in China there are over a hundred

million people that are diabetic a

hundred million in India there are 68

million people that have diabetes in

Mexico it’s the leading cause of death

even higher than any other disease in

Australia someone gets diabetes every

five minutes

in fact one out of every fourth person

in a hospital bed is either a diabetic

or there because they have some diabetic

complications and of course in America

we don’t really have diabetes we’re

pretty much free of that disease we’re

super healthy and I’m being very

sarcastic now let’s talk about why this

is the fastest growing disease I just

want to show you the mechanism here

because it’s very interesting of course

you already know this but carbohydrates

are the culprits and the frequency of

eating but mainly the carbs so what

happens when you eat carbs is you get

too much sugar in the blood so this

pancreas here has a little cell called

the beta cell and it’s job is to make

insulin and insulin job is to get the

glucose out of the blood to maintain

normal glucose now it usually takes

between 10 to 15 to 20 years to develop

diabetes and diabetes is simply disease

that you have too much glucose and sugar

in the blood but it takes a long time

for that to show up on a blood test so

you’re probably asking yourself like why

doesn’t that show up a lot sooner well

what’s happening is the pancreas is

compensating it’s trying to help you out

and it’s producing a lot more insulin

than it should it’s producing 5 to 9

times as much insulin compared to a

normal person so it’s a lot of insulin

coming out there to keep this blood

glucose normal so you go to the doctor

they test you everything comes out

normal you’re good to go

of course you’re eating tons of carbs

but it’s not showing up in the blood

because the pancreas is producing so

much insulin and one complication of

this is that the cells are starting to

resist insulin okay as a survival

mechanism because too much insulin is

toxic so they’re gonna create this

condition called insulin resistance so

now the body has to make even more

insulin to penetrate to themselves to

eventually end up in the blood to remove

the glucose so here you are going along

for 10 to 15 years and yes you’re having

problems getting up at night sleep apnea

belly fat a fatty liver you’re having a

lot of problems with that are associated

with diabetes and another name for it is

a metabolic syndrome but the blood

glucose is still normal because of this

compensation but eventually what happens

is the beta cell the cell the pancreas

starts to get tired and it starts to

fail to compensate for this situation so

now it’s not going to produce the

insulin so the insulin is going to go

down okay now if we don’t have enough

insulin and we have insulin resistance

what’s going to happen to the blood

glucose it’s gonna go up up up and

that’s when you’re diagnosed with

disease so diabetes is diagnosed very

late on the chain of events if doctors

knew this connection between carbs and

insulin and blood sugars a little bit

better they could probably focus on the

diet here and prevent this problem and

one thing they never do is check for

insulin because if they did they would

find that especially in a fasting

insulin test and the test that you’d

want to do is called a Homa IR they

would find that you have high insulin

there’s a really interesting medical

doctor who did a lot of research in in

the VA hospital and he tested thousands

of people and out of all these people

with normal blood glucose a good

percentage of him at high insulin and he

would check them not two hours after

he would check them sometime five hours

after a meal and he would see this spike

in insulin so this data was known way

back then and of course when you have

these breakthroughs or these

realizations they’re not really

acknowledged until you know most of the

world has a major problem over many many

years so this insulin resistance is in

the periphery of the body

it’s called peripheral resistance and

that’s one of the reasons why you may

get peripheral neuropathies which

basically is a problem the furthest away

from the heart it’s like in the the toes

or your fingertips that’s when you

notice it first so this is what I want

you to do if you’re a diabetic next time

you’re at your doctor’s office just ask

your doctor this one question or

actually two questions one is this now

doc isn’t diabetes a disease of too much

sugar in the blood then why aren’t you

recommending that I go in a low glucose

or sugar or a carbohydrate diet and just

see what they say because what’s

shocking is that these basic things are

not taught and medical school which is

quite ironic anyway if you’re new to my

channel click the link down below learn

how to get in a low carbohydrate diet do

in a minute fasting so you can decrease

the need for this pancreas to work so

hard alright thanks for watching so if
