Today we're going to talk about how to block the effects of sugar and other carbs, and other things as well.

Relative clauses (Restrictive vs. nonrestrictive)

If the person's on the ketogenic diet and they somehow come off the ketogenic diet, and they eat something that they shouldn't be eating, and how do they neutralize the effects of that?

All right, so let's start with number one, sugar.

What should they do to counteract the effects of the sugar?

Now, the damaging part of sugar is that it tends to act like rust in your arteries, destroys your energy factories, your mitochondria.

You have something called the glycemic index of foods, so you eat a certain food, and the higher the sugar, the higher the spike, and it creates damage.

Each carbohydrate has an index from high to low.

You also have something else called the glycemic load, and that's looking at the carbohydrate in food, but it's also taking into consideration fiber, because fiber tends to buffer and inhibit this sugar spike.

Out of all the carbohydrates, fiber, which is a carbohydrate, has no effect on insulin.

Other carbohydrates will raise insulin, but not fiber, so it's neutral.

The more something has fiber in it, the less the sugar effects.

Carrots, for example, are loaded with fiber, and so it's really hard to spike the blood sugar if you're consuming a carrot, unless you juice the carrot and just drink the juice, carrot juice, which I used to do a long time ago.

What you need to understand if your friend consumes some sugar is to recommend that they start consuming some fiber right away, and if there's fiber in a salad, that would be the best thing, because that will buffer or slow the effect of this spike.

The other thing to know about sugar is that sugar, especially refined sugar, depletes you of potassium, B1, zinc, and magnesium.

If you were to take some electrolytes and B vitamins and trace minerals, that will counteract the deficiencies that you just created from that sugar.

That's just a way of minimizing the side effects from that.

Grains, because eventually grains turn into sugar.

There's different things about grains that you need to know.

If you're consuming refined grains, it's going to deplete you of certain nutrients, because when you refine the grain, it's empty of nutrients.

When you consume that, your body starts to metabolize it, and then it needs to pull from its reserve certain nutrients to burn it up.

This is why the more refined grains or even sugar that you consume, the more of certain nutrients that you need, because refined foods does not come with these nutrients.

You have to tap into your own reserves to be able to process them or digest them.

Refined grains have their own issues, but then you have the whole grains.

Whole grains has some nutrients, not as much as you might think, but it also has something called phytic acid and other anti-nutrients.

The phytic acid actually blocks you from absorbing certain minerals.

If you're consuming whole grains, you might want to consume an oyster or some shellfish to get those minerals back, because shellfish, especially oysters, are loaded with zinc.

The other big problem with grains is the gluten.

That's the protein in the wheat or some other grain.

You can have a gluten intolerance, but it can really tear up and create inflammation in your gut on so many people, especially because they've did hybrids of grains, especially wheat.

They come with more protein in some cases.

That protein can do some interesting things to your gut.

It can even mimic a bit of morphine, which numbs the pain that it creates, making you think it's totally fine to consume.

Then sometime down the road, you have this gut inflammation that creates all sorts of additional problems that you didn't suspect.

Just as a side note, to counter inflammation in your gut, let's say you want to counter that.

You can take glutamine or consume foods high in glutamine.

This is why when someone goes on a meat diet or a carnivore diet and gets all this glutamine from that, they tend to heal their guts as long as they're not consuming at the same time the sugar and the grains and the starches, things like that.

This video is all about neutralizing the effects of some of these carbs and other things as well.

The other thing refined grains depletes is vitamin E.

There's a big correlation between a vitamin E deficiency and angina because the heart needs that vitamin E.

In fact, if you're low in vitamin E, your muscles, including your heart muscle, will work harder and you might have more weakness within the muscle.

When you think of eating refined grains or your friend eating refined grains, think of deficiencies in the B complex, especially B1 and other B vitamins, as well as vitamin E.

You want to put those back to neutralize the effects.

You can even consume some nutritional yeast to get your natural Bs.

Just make sure that they're not enriched with synthetic B vitamins.

Also, I want to mention, if you're consuming grain foods like breads, pasta, things like that in Europe, people have less bloating because they ferment the grains longer, which actually tends to break down more carbs because the microbes eat the carbs.

Also, it can actually break down a lot of the gluten as well.

All that enrichment of iron and synthetic vitamins will tend to make your gut feel very heavy.

The other thing about grains is a lot of times they'll use Roundup Ready or glyphosate, which is a herbicide to dry out these grains.

Now you're consuming this grain that has these chemicals in it, which is not good.

Make sure you have an organic grain if you're going to do grains.

As another side note, I want to mention the chemistry of glucose is very similar to the chemistry of vitamin C.

If you're eating sugar, don't expect any vitamin C absorption because it's competitive.

This is why when people take those vitamin C gummies, I mean, they're just loaded with sugar, you're not getting any vitamin C.

Just realize that glucose blocks vitamin C.

One thing you need to do or tell your friend when they consume this carb or sugar to have more vitamin C foods.

The food that has the most vitamin C is a sauerkraut, but then you also have bell peppers, lemons, or really any of the leafy greens has a good amount of vitamin C.

Any of the berries are a good source of vitamin C.

When you start consuming fruit, people always ask me about fruit.

Our bodies were designed to consume moderate amounts of fruit that wasn't genetically made sweeter, but nowadays they are produced with more carbs and sugar contents.

Also, fruit is seasonal, but we have it all year round.

Is there a big difference between fruit and high fructose corn syrup?

High fructose corn syrup is like drinking this pure fructose and glucose.

It creates a completely different effect than if you were to even get your fructose from the juice from a fruit because you have the antioxidants.

You see, if someone's a diabetic and they have high levels of sugar in the blood, and if you're a diabetic, you should know this.

You have all these side effects, these complications from diabetes.

You can greatly neutralize a lot of those side effects by just consuming antioxidants from vegetables.

Also, things like benfotiamine is a really good one, or alpha lipoic acid.

I mean, a lot of diabetics get peripheral neuropathy of their feet where their feet are numb or painful.

If they just took some benfotiamine or alpha lipoic acid, they would at least not feel that pain anymore because it decreases the complications of diabetes.

Diabetes affects four areas, your brain and nervous system, your vascular, your arteries, and the eyes and the kidneys.

Of course, changing your diet is the ultimate solution, but also just to counteract or neutralize some of these other effects, you can just start eating these high antioxidant foods.

You may have high blood glucose, not necessarily from eating carbs, but it can come from stress.

Let's say you're on the ketogenic diet and you haven't transitioned and your body's still producing sugar because it has really bad insulin resistance.

You can counteract a lot of that just by exercising every single day because that burns off the sugar and it actually strengthens the mitochondria.

A lot of people are on metformin being a diabetic.

If you were to take berberine, for example, it's a natural remedy.

There's studies that show that it can create a similar effect but with less side effects.

Just put some cinnamon on your toast and sugar in your butter where you make this cinnamon toast.

I'm just being sarcastic, but cinnamon actually can help stabilize blood sugars.

So can apple cider vinegar that helps to neutralize some of the effects of consuming sugar and refined carbs.

One from acidifying the stomach, another from just helping your blood sugars.
