so I believe diabetes persists because

how its defined diabetes is a state or

condition in which you’re unable to

maintain your blood sugars okay

you start developing high blood sugars

now what’s interesting is between 1979

1997 normal fasting was below 140

milligrams per deciliter and the way

they diagnosed diabetes was this if you

have blood sugars greater than 140

milligrams per deciliter and two

separate occasions you were a diabetic

then in 1997 they changed how they

diagnosed diabetes so anything greater

than 126 milligrams per deciliter

fasting glucose was considered diabetes

so overnight

millions of people were not now diabetic

so if you’re a diabetic or a

pre-diabetic or you want to avoid

diabetes you must know what normal blood

sugar is okay it’s between 70 and 85 and

yes it can go up to 90 but right in this

range is this this is where you want it

right here between 70 and 85 milligrams

per deciliter when you’re fasting

there’s an interesting study I’m gonna

put a link down below two thousand men

that revealed that if your Sugar’s are

over 85 it increases your risk of dying

from a heart attack by 40 percent okay

so we want to keep your blood Sugar’s

right around 85 or less okay that’s the

ideal scene right now worldwide we have

14% of the population on planet Earth

diabetics okay and pre-diabetes is much

much higher so sometimes people have

this idea that oh yeah my blood sugars

are below 140 so I’m okay I can just i’m

not diabetic yet oh yeah I’m a

pre-diabetic so I can just keep doing

what I’m doing right so here’s what you

need to know you have this pre-diabetes

right where you’re going into diabetes

okay your blood sugars may be over

between 101

125 but here’s the thing if your blood

sugars are between 85 and going up to a

hundred this would be considered

subclinical kind of like the it’s like

gradually going into this pre-diabetes

which will eventually going into actual

diabetes so anything over 85 is not good

diabetes is a condition of high blood

sugar so for those of you that are new

to my channel you must realize that to

correct this you must get the sugar out

of the diet and the carbohydrates but

that’s not what is recommended according

to the American Diabetes Association the

expert on diabetes the authority on

diabetes okay so I wanted to show you

what they recommend it’s very

fascinating alright

avoid or cut back on regular soft drinks

in juice now notice how they say they

give you the option of cutting back I

mean come on if you have pre-diabetes or

even if you have blood sugars in your

90’s or you’re diabetic you shouldn’t be

cutting back you should be completely

and utterly avoiding sugar of all kinds

okay choose a low calorie snack such as

popcorn

principle on the on the glycemic index

popcorn is way too high it’s going to

turn into sugar it’s gonna spike your

blood sugars so they’re recommending a

low-calorie what does a calorie had to

do with it there’s no link between

eating more calories in causing diabetes

it’s the type of calories that you’re

consuming it’s the sugar and the

carbohydrates next one include at least

one vegetable every day one vegetable

they’re saying one serving which is like

one cup no you need to do a lot more

because you need the potassium to help

fix the insulin resistance which is

always involved in type 2 diabetes and

many times in type 1 to next one be

careful with salad toppings the calories

can add up fast again they’re focusing

on the calories what about the carbs

choose fruit instead of cake pie cookies

well that’s better but why even add

fruit in there because fruit is high in

sugar eat smaller servings of usual

foods

they’re not telling you to necessarily

change your diet too much in this one

just eat smaller servings of the junk

that you’re eating when eating out share

your main course with a friend or family

member because of the calories right

eating too much all right next one be

mindful of how much fat you use in

cooking why are you even talking about

fat fat has the lowest response on blood

Sugar’s it doesn’t trigger insulin okay

and by the way for this for when you see

in the media where they say that oh yeah

high fat diet cause diabetes or

prediabetes or insulin resistance those

studies were based on mice which really

did not consume a pure fat diet or a

high-fat diet or a keto diet they were

consuming high fat and high

carbohydrates at the same time okay so

you can pretty much ignore any of those

studies all right avoid foods high in

saturated fats like butter again no no

you want to eat more butter if you have

diabetes use healthy oils such as canola

which by the way is GMO olive okay

that’s good in vegetable oil like what

like what kind of vegetable oil corn oil

soy oil which is high in omega-6 fatty

acids which will increase insulin

resistance inflammation and it’s GMO

okay start with one meat free meal each

week by trying plant-based protein such

as beans or lentils in place of meat

wait a second meat doesn’t cause cancer

especially if it’s grass-fed so again

they’re not talking about the most

important thing you need to avoid they

keep switching to the the meat thing and

the fat thing okay eat lean meats such

as round or loin cuts or chicken without

skin again no no we need the fat the

more lean proteins you consume the

higher you are on what’s called the

insulin index if you don’t know about

that I’m gonna put a link down below and

insulin index is the non carbohydrate

foods that affect insulin okay the

glycemic index is all the carbohydrate

foods that stimulate blood sugars but

you also have the insulin index and lean

protein

okay spikes insulin more than fattier

protein interesting we want to keep

things low on the insulin scale next one

cut back on processed meats that are

high in fat and sodium again it’s it’s

not the fat okay and it’s not the salt

per se it is the carbohydrates okay eat

fewer and smaller portion sizes of

desserts and treats such as ice cream

cake and cookies try saving these for

special occasions well why why do you

even allow people to consume it at all

and also realize this if you consume

just a small amount of a dessert you’re

gonna be hungry for it one hour okay

because of the carbohydrates will start

increasing hunger because of the insulin

spike so this is why diabetes is

persisting okay so you want to know

normal you want to keep your blood

Sugar’s right here you need to keep you

need to actually get a blood glucose

testing kit and keep checking it and

change your diet until you can get it

within this range right here I put a

link down below of the diet that I’m

gonna recommend and if you’re a diabetic

and you’re trying to get your blood

Sugar’s down and you’ve had diabetes for

a long long time you might not be able

to get it down here but get as low as

you can and make sure that you filed a

plan I’m recommending so you can lessen

the complications all right thanks for
