In this in-depth video, we’re going to talk about the deeper cause of diabetes. I’m going to discuss the relationship between diabetes and insulin, and what you need to know about the foods you eat.
Sugar controls the balance of insulin. Insulin has many functions, but one function is to act as a cellular key to allow glucose to go into the cell. Another function of insulin is to lower sugar levels.
Diabetes is an insulin deficiency. You can have a situation where the body makes too much insulin, which causes your cells to ignore it. This can result in diabetes.
What causes insulin to increase?
• Too many carbohydrates and refined sugars
• Protein or amino acids can cause a small increase in insulin
• Adding sugar and protein together can double the insulin production
• Just eating, in general, can increase insulin
• Cortisol (stress hormone) can cause an increase in insulin
• Saturated fats may NOT cause an increase in insulin
By understanding and applying the points I’m going to cover in this video, you may be able to manage your insulin resistance and help address the deeper causes of diabetes.
