this video is very very very important so I would take notes I’m gonna try to

make it really really simple but it’s a very important concept you may have

watch other videos with parts of this information but I wanted to create one

video just to explain everything okay so what we’re talking about is how to

prevent someone from going from a prediabetic state to a diabetic state

now the difference between prediabetes and diabetes has to do with your blood

Sugar’s so in prediabetes your blood sugars are around 100 to 125 diabetes

it’s 126 and greater we’re talking about another test called a1c which is an

average of three months of your blood Sugar’s we’re dealing with a 5.7 to a

6.4 with prediabetes and then once you’re diabetic becomes 6.5 or greater

so really when we’re talking about diabetes type 2 we’re just talking about

the elevation of sugar in your blood a normal blood sugar should be about 80

okay and what that means is you have about a

teaspoon of sugar in all of your blood okay so it’s not that much and you don’t

need to consume a teaspoon of sugar to get that your body will make its own

sugar out of fat out of other types of calories okay

so that’s what pre-diabetes is that’s what diabetes is now what happens is

this an average person consumes about 31 teaspoons of sugar every single day and

I’m talking about the other carbohydrates that can turn into sugar

as well it’s not all just teaspoons of sugar so they’re consuming a lot of

carbs roughly could be around I don’t know 300 grams or even more for the

average American so that’s crazy amounts of sugar now

look at this a normal blood sugar is only one teaspoon of sugar over here

we’ve got 31 teaspoons so why is it when someone consumes a lot of sugar

the average American why isn’t the blood sugar just screaming high all over the

place usually it’s normal at least for a

period of time well that is because we have this filter right in the middle of

this thing and it has to do with this machine that keeps the sugar out of the

blood and it’s called insulin so insulin kind of filters out and gets rid of the

excess amount of sugar in the blood and what does it do with it it hides it

it’ll put it in stored sugar called glycogen in the liver and the muscles it

will also put excess in the fat it will convert some to cholesterol but the

thing that the body doesn’t want is high amounts of sugar in the blood why

because that sugar is very very dangerous to the lining of the arteries

it will start to corrode and it’s called oxidation or damage inside the arteries

and then comes the plaquing and the calcium and that whole thing so your

body really considers excess sugar very very dangerous if this person is

consuming a lot of carbohydrates and has a high frequency of eating having a lot

of snacks what happens is you’re gonna get a huge amount of insulin being

released from the pancreas and that insulin is working really really hard to

keep the sugar down but here’s the other thing high levels of insulin is also

very toxic to the body as well so your body doesn’t like high amounts of sugar

or high months of insulin so what does it do it starts to reduce the insulin by

creating a resistance okay it’s called insulin resistance so the cells start

blocking insulin like crazy the problem is the body still has to keep this under

control so it starts to turn up the dial and produce more and more insulin to

penetrate through this resistance to keep the sugar at a normal level and

this whole game continues for a period of 10 to 15 years so you may have

insulin resistance for 10 to 15 years until all the sudden this pancreas says

you know what it’s been compensating it’s been working

hard to kind of counter this problem to help you but now it’s exhausted so the

pancreas can no longer pump out that much insulin so this starts going down

and down now we don’t have as much insulin well guess what’s gonna happen

if you keep consuming this amount of carb at this frequency this sugar is

gonna start to go up why because our insulin is going down so the sugar is

gonna start going up over time it’s gonna then turn into full-blown diabetes

now understanding this problem is so important if you are a pre-diabetic or

even you have insulin resistance because it’s so easy to solve with just a little

bit of effort you can avoid this whole thing and it really has to do with

cutting out the carbs and going on in a minute fasting now the other thing that

I want to tell you is very very interesting the doctors are focused on

the blood sugars only they’re not measuring your fasting insulin level

they’re not measuring if you have insulin resistance the test that you

would do to determine that would be Homa IR okay but that’s never done so this area

is kind of hidden this is the area that you see this happens later in life this

happens way before 90% of people that are pre-diabetics don’t even know their

pre-diabetics they just wake up one day and they’re a diabetic now I would say

probably 99% of the people don’t know they have insulin resistance now I’m

going to tell you right now the symptoms to determine if you have insulin

resistance even without taking this test okay

all you have to do right now is just look down and see if you see your belly

if you see your belly and you can’t see your your feet that we know you have

insulin resistance here are some other symptoms

frequent urination even at night are you getting up to the night in urinating

this is you have if you were just to change your

diet you would notice this symptom improving within a few days brain fog

memory problems because your brain is dependent on this glucose and when you

have resistance guess what you starve the neurons with its fuel and you start

becoming forgetful it’s the start of dementia but when you cut out the carbs you’ll be

running your body on ketones and you can bypass that whole thing and feed your

brain and you’ll actually have a lot more focus and less memory problems but

here’s the big symptom right here to know that you have instant resistance

you cannot go a long period of time without getting hungry you need a snack

between meals you need a snack at night this is probably the big one craving for

carbs is a big one or chips or some type of cracker especially at night is a big

symptom tired after eating you want to take a nap after your lunchtime we know

you have insulin resistance tingling in the feet or burning in the feet or any

type of sensation in the hands of the feet is right in this area right here it

could be this area too that means that your blood sugars are destroying the

vascular system the capillaries to the nerves in your feet that’s called

peripheral neuropathy very very very very simple to fix all you do is you get

off the high carb diet stop eating so frequent I put some links down below of

how to do this and just so you know sugar is very oxidative and it creates a

lot of inflammation and the inflammation actually even makes this worse

it actually can push you from here to here just having the inflammation also

omega-6 fatty acids like in all the different oils soy oil corn oil

cottonseed canola oil those are very highly inflammatory that can also push

you over the edge as well as msg like monosodium glutamate it’s in a lot of

fast food restaurants anyway I gave you a lot information I hope you now have a

deeper understanding of really how simple this

concept is thanks for watching

hey we’re back with another amazing recipe no grains no

sugar totally keto there’s no suffering

on keto absolutely not Karen and it’s an immune system builder absolutely you

have to check this out I think you should hurry up watch the recipe and

make it yourself it’s just so easy to be keto

but is it simple it’s super simple we hope you enjoy making it as much as we

are enjoying eating it
