That is moronic. Say hello to cancer. Tell I wasnt sad to see it go away. But eating ZERO PLANTS. All plants feed cancer. Can not be avoided. As for diabetes, mine was cured in 24 of eating ZERO PLANTS. From blood glucose of 250 down to 85. Later confirmed ON MY FOUR MONTH FOLLOW UP by an HbA1c going from 11.8% down to 5.5%. NO MORE DIABETES.
Interesting. I am diabetic type 2 and eat a complete diet full 🌝 f protein and healthy fats. ... Even some saturated I have lost 160lb doing so. Have lowered my A1C to 5.1. And all of my lipids are within their optimum ranges. Hmmm. What I have also done is avoided processed food. And large amounts of carbohydrates and sugar. For me sugar and carbs are the culprit. Not fat.
I followed high fat Keto for over 8 years & it was disastrous for me in the end. I gained over 30lbs more weight, my insulin resistance went into orbit & not even heaps of insulin could get my blood glucose down, & my digestion, that had been struggling for some time, threw in the towel & refused to digest animal protein any longer. I guess if your body is relatively adept at dealing with & burning fat, that you may may be able to ‘get away’ with doing LCHF, however, if you are like me & your body cannot process fats very well then Keto may just not be the best idea. My body has become so fat-saturated that I can only lose weight & improve my insulin sensitivity by eating a virtually fat free plant-based diet. For the first month I just juiced. Although still initially elevated whilst my body eliminated the ectopic fat, around the end of the month my blood sugar started to drop, my insulin sensitivity returned & I had to reduce my insulin intake by more than half (50+ units to 20 or less). I also lost 11lbs of the excess weight.
all you have to take good fat not bad fat where insulin resistance is 2-4%. good fat for example boiled egg or using olive oil coconut oil and grass fed butter, all are good fat buffer the insulin resist.
Chronic caloric surplus (overeating) is, to my knowledge, the main cause of insulin resistance; dietary fats are probably the macronutrient that more easily can create this surplus.
@@GregariousAntithesis You can be in caloric surplus with both a ketogenic diet (eating tons of butter and bacon) and an high carb diet; with both a 'clean diet' and a 'cafeteria diet'.
Are there any t shirts that say mastering diabetes on them? I would love to buy them.

If they don’t want to talk about it they can just see it and wonder what it’s about and maybe search it online for themselves sometime. thx for another great video and all you do :) ❤ 🌟🎉 y’all are the best!!!!!
Not for me.... The exact opposite is true. I've got out the carbs cut out the fruit eat a diet high in fiber fat and protein. My A1C is fine and my lipid panels are fine to my bad cholesterol is right in line my good cholesterol is right in line and my triglycerides are under the optimum The key for both of these is to not eat processed.
So it's the introduction of carbohydrates that interferes with the mechanism. If there are no carbohydrates present then the fats and proteins move in and out of the cell without any problem as they are supposed to do.
Help me understand something: is it the fat that you eat daily which blocks insulin absorption or is it the actual fat cells? Will this diet lower my blood sugar (a1c) even before I lose some body fat?
If I’m getting headaches after fruit right away is it bc I have some fat in my system? I think I’ve been stressed and low hormones and restricting foods for a long time and told its insulin resistence -I’m thin at 5’2 and 101 lbs
Have you always been slim? I lost a lot of weight but i begin to see that lower fat intake increase insulin sensivity. We most likely have also leaky gut And messed up microbiom. I am getting better on prebiotics And probiotics .
I’ve always been thin bc I’ve always watched my weight -I loose weight with protein though for sure and feel less bloated -and more satiated -but I’m afraid animal protein will cause Illnesses down the line -however I’m not happy eating this way bc I I am bloated and once I start eating I’m always thinking of food and if I eat huge amounts of fruit or even cooked starches i gain and just feel stuffed
Dr Mcdougall has been preaching youths for years. Can you do a video interviewing Dr Mcdougall ? It would be great to hear both of you and what you've learnt 😊👌
So fat and protein causes your insulin resistance and blood sugar to go up. Why does my blood sugar remain around $100 or under even after I eat. Because I avoid starchy vegetables fruit sugar.... Avoid processed foods. I do not mix I do not mix carbs and proteins Carbs and fats My A1C is in perfect range in my lipid panels are exactly where they need to be. Please explain
My understanding is that A1C and lipids under control are good things but are not indicators of insulin resistance. If one cannot eat a healthy whole carbohydrate like fruit, potatoes, etc without having a spike then they are still insulin resistant. Fatty muscle cells seem to cause/exacerbate insulin resistance. Saturated fats particularly are a problem. So only focusing on A1C without addressing insulin resistance is just putting a bandaid on. Insulin resistance is not only the root cause of diabetes but other chronic diseases as well. Hope that helps.
You might have a pHd but you have a fundamental misunderstanding about what causes fat to behave in the way you described. Eating fat does not cause diabetes. You may be correct in the technical details but you mentioned "added" fat. This means invariably that adding fat to an already carb rich meal will negatively affect you glucose, as it appears in the chart. However, what if you cut the carbs completely? I think you need to check with the most recent research. No one will heal their diabetes or pre-diabeties with this advice.
Whole Food Plant Based Nutrition reverses T2D bc the animal saturated fat/IML deactivates insulin receptors. Also, we eat complex carbs, not refined carbs!
@@blueowl2555 Dr. Berg is one guy who has this figured out. Also, we have Dr. Robert Lustig, Dr. Pradip Jamnaidas, and many others who are looking at the actual data. Looking at what actually happens when you consume certain foods is important. I do think there could be a method for being able to eat certain carbs but you need to be more careful. Also, the carbs MUST include fiber. But this all is irrelevant to the fact that your body actually needs cholesterol. But I digress. Yes I was skeptical of keto at first but I was kinda introduced to it by Dr. Berg.
As far as I understand even non-diabetics will get high bloodsugar after eating a banana, when they have been on high fat diets for a while. If thats so, then they have created diabetes 2, and become more insuline resistant? I also read often, that people on HF diets have to cut back on vegetables, after eating HF some time, because they tolerate less and less carbs, until some have to eat 100% carnivore... I think that HF diets lower bloodsugar, not because of eating fat, but because excluding junkfood like sugar, wheat and the COMBINATION OF FAT AND GLUCOSE. It seem like you can lower bloodsugar either by eating high fat and very low carb, or you can eat all the fruits and veggies you want, and even some whole grains and beans, as long as you keep the fat under 20-30 grams per day?? The strange thing is that proteins are broken down to glucose as well. The body only use a few grams of the aminoacids, the rest are broken down to glucose?? And it seem like HF people can eat less and less carbs, and have to eat very restricted after a few years?? But I'm not PhD....😊 It's just my theories, and thoughts... 😊
The optimal diet provides your body with everything it needs to continue to sustain itself. AKA nutrition. As long as that criteria is met, you will be healthy. The body’s structure is made of and rebuilt with fats and proteins. It takes many processes and proper nutrition to accomplish this. For everyone to keep acting like the only health issue is so called insulin resistance is crazy. With this mindset all cells do is process fat and glucose for energy. So, can someone explain how cells are made? How they are replicated? Why do we need proper nutrition if that’s all cells do? Do our cells live forever? We all know the answer, the body is in a constant state of breaking down and rebuilding. We do not die with the same body we are born with. There is constant turnover of our body tissue throughout life. As far as I am aware our arteries are body tissue as well and need proper nutrition to be remade and repaired as necessary throughout our lives. None of us will live forever on this earth, so to continue to perpetuate someone will die faster because of a blood marker like LDL or triglycerides is shortsighted at best. Not obtaining proper nutrition is the driving factor of how long we can remain healthy and give ourselves the best odds for longer and more productive years on earth.
In many of your videos, you mention protein but aren't there 2 types of protein ( plant protein and animal proteins)? It is my understanding that animal protein is bad for us, while plant protein ( even in large quantities) is good for us. So, are you talking about both animal & plant protein when you use the word "protein " in all your videos? Perhaps I missed it. Your videos are great by the way!!!
