  • Despite their differences, the most common and lethal chronic diseases all have one thing in common-they’re all caused or exacerbated by a metabolic condition known as insulin resistance. The purpose of this talk is to not only define insulin resistance and provide an appreciation for its prevalence, but also establish a clear series of cause and consequence of the disorder.
    This lecture is part of the IHMC Evening Lecture series.

And when he gives a lecture like this I am 10X more smarter about how to grow my body healthier each and every day! And this is why all the other influencers and talking heads want to interview him. Endless thanks to Professor Bikman!

    If a cell is insulin resistant it would have to then eventually be starved of Glucose, so then what happens ? The cell dies ?
    Insulin goes up because Glucose is up because all the cells were already full of glucose and the host kept on pouring carbs in whilst sitting on the couch. I'm doing it now.

    Why is insulin "bad"? Type I diabetics die without it. Insulin resistance is pathologic, and is due to damaged insulin receptors from chronic hyperglycemia induced tissue glycosylation, overly "stuffed" fat cells, along with free radical damage from incorporation of polyunsaturated fats into cellular and mitochondrial membranes. Excess carbs and seed oil consumption are the primary etiology of metabolic dysfunction.

    Doc, If protein has such little effect on insulin, then why does eating a lot of very lean protein and no carbs get me out of ketosis? If I eat a lot of fat with my protein, then I can get into ketosis. Maybe I'm an unusual case, but protein does have a big measurable effect on my ketosis. By ketosis I mean greater than .5mmol/L of ketones. I have not measured my insulin, but insulin is what takes people out of ketosis.

    I’m on the ketogenic diet and fully believe in it based on my results. I’ve tried to convince my children of its benefits but they are resistant to change. My son did raise a valid question. If everyone switched to the keto or carnivore diet could the world support the number of animals needed to feed everyone? I didn’t know the answer. Of course, if you feel animals are a large part of global climate change, as many young people do, they want less animals, not more.

    • @bajone02

      Consider this response to those who think we cannot sustain high keto / meat diets worldwide: God created us and sustains us ultimately. He designed our bodies to heal given the necessary, healthy input. Different planet biomes exist to support that area's population in different ways. Fruits, vegs, nuts, seeds, meats. Mankind has distorted that plan and decided, based largely on profit margins and greed, what we should eat, what lands should be used for growing vs grazing. Many have been Bad Decisions by mankind. Greed has created bad chemicals that are tainting our food and water sources for the sake of more industry, food production and easier harvesting...at the expense of poisoned harvests!! Not good. Our planet can regenerate the healthy foods everyone needs without all the chemicals, fake food products, unhealthy animal husbandry. Everyone, including our governments , needs to look out for the next guy, do their part and examine the sin in their part of distorting our food supply, and quit trying to reduce our world population to fit the goals of the elites. God will let mankind faulter if we do not keep up our end of the bargain only to a point. Then He will do His own Great Reset to teach us who is in charge again just as he Has throughout history. People need to quit just accepting the status quo and stand up for what is right and just for All Mankind! Love one another as God has loved us. Pretty simple. Wake up world!!
