This is absolutely one of the BEST EXPLANATIONS AND VISUAL DEMONSTRATIONS OF WHY HIGH FAT DIET, NOT HIGH CARB DIETS, cause insulin resistance, and lead to diabetes. INCREASING FAT IN THE CELL (intramyocellular fat) IS LIKE CHEWING GUM IN A LOCK. NOT ALLOWING INSULIN TO WORK SO SUGAR CAN
GO INTO THE CELL. Ever wonder why traditional Asian (& African) cultures eating lots of rice, white rice even, never got diabetes? Because the rest of their diet was vegetables, fruits, beans, fish, small amounts of meats and lower in total fat. And it wasn’t till Asians adopted the Western high fat, high meat, high processed carbohydrate diet that diabetes incidence started to rise and become
epidemic (i.e. China, India).
TO PREVENT AND REVERSE DIABETES EAT LOTS OF UNPROCESSED FIBER RICH CARBS, VEGETABLES, FRUIT, BEANS, SEEDS/NUTS AND KEEP YOUR ADDED FAT LOW TO NONE AND SMALL AMOUNTS OF ANIMAL FOOD IF ANY! THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT VIDEO YOU CAN SHARE WITH ANYONE YOU KNOW WITH BLOOD SUGAR PROBLEMS.
GREAT BOOKS ON PREVENTING AND REVERSING DIABETES:
The Starch Solution by John McDougall, MD
Dr. Neal Barnard’s Program for Reversing Diabetes
The End of Diabetes by Joel Fuhrman
Go to my “Staying Healthy Today Archives” and type in the search box [Diabetes] and you will see “10 Interviews” I have done with such experts on this very topic. McDougall, Barnard, Jenkins, Sorenson,
Jenkins, Anderson…
BOTTOM LINE: Just eat as much unprocessed plant food as you can. Add small amounts of oil to cook with if you must. And no more than a palm full of animal food daily, if you must, and we’d wipe out the diabetes epidemic, and heart disease epidemic at the same time. That would save BILLIONS OF DOLLARS!
Again send this to someone you care about who has blood sugar, heart or obesity issues.
Be and Stay Well,
Kirk
