Transcript

in this video we’re going to discuss how

high sugar or high insulin can destroy

your eyes okay so number one it affects

something called the retina the retina

is the back part of the eye it’s all

nerve tissue it’s kind of extension to

the brain so it’s where all the

information comes in it’s transmitted

into the brain so there’s a condition

called diabetic neuropathy where the

tiny little blood vessels get damaged

and they leak and they basically starve

off the retina okay this is one of the

leading causes of blindness all right

then we have the macula the macula is a

central part of the retina okay it’s a

smaller part of it and you can have a

condition called diabetic macular edema

why because the leaking blood that

happens in the vascular system around

this nerve tissue then you have

something called macular degeneration

now I’ve done videos before on this

where I talk about the carotenoids and

lutein which are phytonutrients in

cruciferous vegetables can greatly help

protect the macula so that way you can

actually eat donuts and candy and

cookies as long as you’re consuming that

cruciferous you’re totally okay and I’m

totally just kidding you you can’t do

that okay you want to get the sugar out

of the diet get the junk out of the

trunk and then you want to start

consuming cruciferous vegetables so you

can actually heal the inside of the eye

okay so then we have the lens of the eye

you can get cataracts that’s where you

get this cloudiness because this little

piece of protein starts clouding the

lens and things become blurry and then

you can’t see and then you have to get

surgery on that high sugar and we’re

high insulin can also affect the fluids

to dehydrate the eye cause dryness which

is a common symptom of pre-diabetic and

actual diabetics where you have this

like it’s just like there’s sand in the

inside of the eye or underneath the

eyelid or there’s something in the eye

like a foreign object or it’s really dry

and sticky okay it’s high sugar and then

you have glaucoma which is basically

pressure inside the eye it’s like a

little pressure cooker that’s destroying

the nerves because there’s too much

pressure in there and that also comes

from high sugar as well so if you know

of anyone that is starting to see

lured vision or double vision or having

eye issues definitely give them this

sugars by eating better alright thanks
