What Causes Insulin Resistance: Why It Should Be Called Food Resistance!? Type 2 Diabetes #12

[@jailsonsemedo6029]

Your explanation are the best out there. Keep sharing knowledge to us 🙏🙏

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Thanks brother. I will

[@johnaustin9452]

Thank you Doc, I wish I can like this video Million times.

[@patienceankrah4219]

I'm armed with the right information and so far I'm doing well. Keep up the good work Doc and I'm praying for you and this chanel to reach as many people like myself who just need the right information so they can take care of themselves. Most of us with insult resistant are not stupid but just misinformed by the experts.

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Thank you so much. God bless you as well

[@curioustochange8461]

Hey doctor.please make a video on on normal BMI people with prediabetes or type 2 diabeties.thanks

[@barbarabrown4609]

Thank you so much, learning more every video.

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

I'm happy to hear that! Thanks as well😀

[@Vickiet253]

Than you Dr. Carvalho, I always appreciate your videos. I like this format :)

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

I also always appreciate your comments. I will continue using this format, it's much easier to edit. Thanks.

[@reddog3544]

Another Good video Dr. C. Hope all is well with you and family.

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Thanks. We are fine. Blessings to your family as well

[@chienwiesuh6483]

Thanks God for people like you who are doing their best to help our people suffering with diabetes based on wrong information or lack of information. God should give you the strength to keep doing what you are doing for the diabetic world. Have a question for you sir ( what do you think about Alkaline cabs and fruits for a diabetic? )

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Thanks a lot. God bless you as well. I normally judge them by their GI and GL. I have a video on that: Foods That Raise Blood Sugar! Glycemic Index vs Glycemic Load - Type 2 Diabetes #8

[@peacenow6618]

Excellent. Thanks Dr

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Thanks

[@zeded4540]

Excellent video!! Can you do a video on the types of medication that people like myself who eat low carb, exercise, and are underweight but can get their a1c below 7?????? (Not metformin ) Pleeeeaaassee

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Thanks. I will make a video on that. Did you mean can or can't?

[@zeded4540]

Type 2 - Dr. Vladmir Carvalho I meant CAN’T get it lower than 7... you see my blood sugar is messing up my typing skills

[@peacenow6618]

Hi Dr, Could you do a video on the "dawn phenomenon"?

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Ok. I will put that on the list. Thanks

[@ravirro]

This is great. Thank you. So, are there other foods to avoid besides sugars and processed?

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Thanks. I have a video on things that raise your blood sugar: "Type 2 Diabetes #8". Most people will do well just by avoiding those and reducing the quantity.

[@MrJudo2go]

Thank you for sharing another great video. If I already have diabetes, do I have to be concerned about branch chain amino acids making my system more insulin resistant? I drink whey protein shakes and bcaa's with glutamine as a part of my training and diet. Thank you Dr.

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

It depends on what else you are eating and how your pancreas is at the moment. Some people can, others can't. But what's your A1c score?

[@MrJudo2go]

@@Type-2-Diabetes I have maintained an A-1c below 7.0 for the last few years. My glucose meter readings are always below 180. My day time readings are between 120 and 155. I noticed that it does rise with protein intake. My morning readings are usually the highest 145 to 177 sometimes.

[@jjSKI73]

@@MrJudo2go those are all horrible numbers. Try adding fat to your shake, using water only, like Macadamia nut oil, or all natural peanut butter to your shakes to slow down the spike in blood glucose

[@michaelvittori8525]

Another entertaining, and informative video !! I wouldn't call it Food Resistance though because there are a lot of foods that are perfectly healthy to eat, and won't cause the insulin resistance. I think a better term is Carbohydrate Resistance, or Sugar Resistance.

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

I thought about it and said food, because there are different types of carbohydrate and some of them are not bad, so I said "especially sugary stuff and processed/refined carbohydrates". I normally tell people that if they are getting their carbs from broccoli, I don't mind. I have a video on things that raise your blood sugar but I will make another one in the future. Thanks

[@SandraMcChannel]

Can you do a fasting video please

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

I will do that later. I have a few more videos to make before that. Thanks

[@SandraMcChannel]

What causes me to gain excess body fat above waistline? When I wear a fitted skirt that use to fit me nicely a large tyre of fat will emerge above skirt and below my chest. I have mobility issues and eat low carb/zero carb carnivore high fat at present 16/8 or OMAD format is my pattern of eating Can eating high fat such as olive and coconut oil be causing this excess belly fat to stay

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

This is one of the reasons I don't tell people with diabetes to do low carb high fat. I normally say low carb and normal fat, because calories do count, and it will be a problem in the future when the food companies start putting high fat food in every corner (the same way they did to high carbs). And as you mentioned that you have mobility issues I expect that the amount of food you need might be lower than you think. I would keep everything the same and reduce the size for some time and see. But please ask your doctor before making any changes, because I don't have the right to give personal medical advice. Thanks

Hello sir. Followed you through beat diabetes channel. I have a query. Plz help I am 5,7 inch weighing 62 kg now I was diagnosed with diag. 8 months bck with a1c 8.8. Lost w8 to 62 from 72kg. Eating low carb around 120 gms. A1c dropped from 8.8 to 7 then 6.3 and recently got it to 5.7. I did my homa ir test done in april 12 Homa ir index - 0.39 Insulin sensitivity 256% Insulin 2.7 (13 hour fast) Beta cell fxn 39% It surprised me little as I thought of myself as insulin resistive and values to be more. Then on 31 may I did my c peptide test done. Its value was 0.56 Am I type 1.5 ???? Doctors here in india dont tell anything. Thankyou for your time

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

From the description it looks like you are doing well. For the c-peptide test, I want to ask what was your glucose level when it was 0.56? That information is important. Thanks

[@nokia9929]

@@Type-2-Diabetes I didn't tested fasting glucose. Bt my usual fasting glucose comes around 90-100.

[@nokia9929]

And c peptide range was between 0.81 to 3.85 My night fasting was 13 hours before the test.

[@nokia9929]

Diabetes run in my family. My grandmother was having it. My father got diag. With type 2 @ 34 age. I at 26.

We are eating more than we need.

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Yes. Way more than back in the days 🤭

[@Cman8506]

Ok i like it 🙂👍🏾

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Thanks

[@patienceankrah4219]

Say it again Doc, too much sugary foods is the reason l had Insulin resistance.

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

That's the easiest way to have insulin resistance 🤭

[@fitdoctor1622]

Logic, we'll call food resistance instead of insulin, so can we say the food we overdosed are the real problems of type 2 which in medical schools known as idiopathic. Thnk u doc

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

There are other factors involved, But food is indeed the most important one. I don't consider it idiopathic. Thanks

[@josegarcia3316]

Does the body restore Beta cells???

[@Type-2-Diabetes]

Beta cell mass (debatable) and function (confirmed) can improve when it's early enough. But at later stage there will be irreversible damage (with a lot of fibrosis in the islets). I'll talk about that one day.

[@marijoheitman2577]

So basically stop eating

[@suebell5870]

Marijo Heitman No, but limit the types of food that are insulin triggers (high carbs and sugary food) and don’t graze all day. I eat two meals a day and do not snack at all so that my pancreas is resting most of the time and not constantly churning out insulin. Just making these changes dropped my A1C, and as an added bonus I dropped 10 pounds.

[@reddog3544]

@@suebell5870 Actually eat nothing you REALLY enjoy.

[@suebell5870]

No, not really true. I have modified several of my favorite recipes to replace the triggers to insulin spikes; erythritol for table sugar, almond flour for wheat flour, etc. Believe me, I don’t feel deprived......

Doctor what is your take on excessive fat ingestion? I'm T2D and I believe I got that way do to the massive amount of calories and the massive amounts of calories from fat, meat,chicken,pork,fried foods ect.
