so recently I had a question that

someone wanted to know is it okay to do

Kido and in a minute fasting if you have

a heart condition okay and this is a big

fat yes in fact you’re gonna get a heart

condition if you don’t do Kido in a

minute fasting if you do the typical

high carbs you’re gonna get a heart

problem let’s talk about why because in

the chain of events that occurs before

you get a buildup of cholesterol

there’s always damage to the epithelial

lining on the inside of the arteries

okay and what damages that is high blood

sugar and high insulin okay so those two

things will damage the wall

the cholesterol comes in as a band-aid

same thing with the calcium in the

protein fibrin it comes in there to help

heal it so it’s not the bad guy it’s

just there to heal it and of course the

person because they’re consuming too

many carbohydrates they’re gonna have

high cholesterol because those turning

to sugar and then sugar is converted to

high cholesterol okay but that’s okay

because you can take a drug for that and

lower it it’s called a statin but the

problem with statins is it causes

insulin resistance and more insulin so

it keeps feeding itself but then what

happens the arteries get stiff and the

calcium builds up and then of course you

don’t have the elasticity so there goes

the blood pressure so now we have high

blood pressure okay but that’s okay we

have a diuretic we can put you on well

the problem with the diuretics is they

deplete potassium also they will

increase insulin and cause insulin

resistance as well so it feeds itself as

well and if you don’t have enough

potassium it’s going to be really hard

to fix this blood sugar problem because

people with high blood sugars and

insulin resistance always have a

potassium deficiency in the first place

and by taking potassium you can actually

improve that condition and stabilize the

blood sugars a lot better and the blood

sugar and insulin problem will also

cause high blood pressure because it’s

been the hardened arteries make the

arteries very inelastic so there’s no

expansion but no problem because we have

we can put you in a diuretic okay to

reduce the blood volume and the pressure

should come down because it increases

your risk for insulin resistant

so therefore causing more insulin and

propelling the problem further and also

creates a deficiency of potassium which

you need to actually fix insulin

resistance okay and if it’s gonna pull

up potassium guess what you’re going to

retain salt so there goes the pressure

as well now if you have arrhythmia as

for example that’s usually a potassium

or a magnesium or an electrolyte

deficiency and of course if you have a

heart problem you usually have insulin

resistance which means you can’t absorb

potassium that well okay that’s one of

the functions of insulin is to help you

absorb these minerals and this

complicates and worsens this problem

right here so you can see that being on

a keto a healthy keto diet with a lot of

vegetables it’s very important and

intimate fasting that can drop insulin

and help heal it the combination is very

powerful to heal the situation so you

can eventually come off of these with

the help of your doc okay all right
