Also interested in any insight you have on the specific intracellular causes of insulin resistance. E.g. Doc. Jason Fung appears to support the hypothesis that it could be as simple as an excess of glucose inside the cell preventing the existence of a suitable gradient across the membrane to transport glucose into the cell, if I understand his argument correctly.

    When the cell is insulin resistant and blocks the insulin receptor insulin stimulates TRPV1 that puts glucose into the cell without using the insulin receptor.
    This causes too much glucose and lipid oxidation and too much reactive oxygen species production in excess of the cell’s antioxidants. This leads to general inflammation and of course oxidized lipids are core component of atherosclerosis. The low carb or keto diet limits glucose available for oxidation secondary to TRPV1 putting glucose into the cell.
    When I maintained a low carbohydrate diet I reversed my insulin resistance measured by 6 hour oral glucose tolerance test and measured c-peptide also significantly reduced.
    At the same time my osteoporosis resolved and my atherosclerosis significantly reduced.

      @@JasonBuckman yes, I am still on the low carb diet. I was trying to give a timeline of events as my bone mineral density loss switch from loss to gain and it began with the low carb diet and then accelerated 8 months later when I stopped Oxcarbazepine that up-regulates TRPV1. So the stimulation of TRPV1 by glp-1 with the consumption of carbohydrates and the up-regulation of TRPV1 both created the disease process.

    22:30 omg this us very true!
    i noticed this as i tried to get to 5%bodyfat and i had absolutely no subcutaneous bodyfat left in my body , i started feeling very off and could barely walk of energy deprivation, even when i started upping my calories to 4000calories a day, it was still a really really big struggle until like 1week has past, and it was still bad but it was getting better, i had already assumed that this starvation mode causes insulin resistance but its good to hear ben talk about it too , so after the 1week i still had barely any subcutanous fat, however since i ate 4000-5000calories a day, i noticed that i have gained visceral fat instead of subcutanous fat.
    And from there on it felt like my insulin resistance was reversing again, also i had to stop caffeine to speed up the process

    40:38 THANK YOU!:) this has been a question/query/concern of mine for a while.
    When you said Aspartame does not cause an insulin response, I immediately had conflict as I remember the results of a study graphing the insulin response on different artificial sweeteners and sugar. They all had a response, it’s just that sugar was by far the greatest.
    I would love to know more about how the “cerfalic? response” (not sure of the spelling here) interacts with the addiction centre of the brain. I would love to see the results of studies to see what I can learn.
    It also proves to me why when on a Lion diet that if I tested eating only schnitzels only for at least 2 days (with the 3rd giving the strength of the cravings), I noticed the carb cravings coming back.
    It all makes sense.
    Can anyone point me into the right direction on this?

    I agree that insulin infusions and insulin resistance itself create a cycle that will worsen insulin sensitivity. But I have to disagree that a diet with carbohydrates will necessarily cause insulin resistance, as you said at 15:20.
    - At 14:20 you say that proteins do not cause insulin release, but this is not true and has been demonstrated in several studies (PMID: 36695783).
    - Then you say that someone who eats carbohydrates throughout the day will become insulin resistant, but if this were true, practically all athletes would be insulin resistant. But in fact, the vast majority of athletes have been consuming carbohydrates at every meal for several years and have excellent insulin sensitivity. Whereas a sedentary person who has a terrible diet will become insulin resistant, but this is not because of glycemic spikes but rather due to the accumulation of visceral fat (which is why athletes do not become insulin resistant). Furthermore, it is extremely clear that insulin resistance appears and progresses the more fat you accumulate, while losing fat, whether through a low-carb or low-fat diet, causes insulin resistance to be reduced.
    Once insulin resistance is already established, I completely agree that eliminating glycemic/insulinemic spikes is the easiest modifiable factor and that a low-carb diet tends to be the most efficient.
    Honestly, I think I agree with everything you always say and you really are amazing at your explanations. But, in my opinion, it really seems that the fact that you sympathize with the low-carb diet makes you not really see what is happening in relation to glucose excursions.

    • @AVitkouski
      @AVitkouski 10 місяців тому +4

      One of the backup systems that makes glucose and releases it into the blood to be used for energy is the liver. When glucose levels go down, insulin stops being secreted by the pancreas and the low insulin level causes the liver to start making glucose and liberating it into the blood for distribution. When we eat, we no longer need the liver to continue to provide glucose. When we eat, blood glucose levels rise as the food is absorbed, the increased glucose levels stimulate the pancreas to produce insulin, the rising insulin level in turn acts as a signal to the liver to stop producing glucose because the body is now getting enough glucose from food.
      In the normal state, the production of glucose by the liver is regulated by insulin levels in the blood. When blood sugar levels rise, insulin is secreted; the increased insulin level signals the pancreas to stop production of glucose. In diabetics there is always insulin deficiency so the signal to the liver to stop glucose production is blunted. In addition there is almost always a degree of insulin resistance, because the liver is resistant to the effects of insulin, it keeps on producing glucose even if glucose levels are already high and insulin levels are high. The liver manufactures glucose in an unregulated manner all night and consequently the blood glucose level which may have been normal or slightly elevated at bedtime progressively increases overnight and the fasting glucose in the morning is too high (frequently the fasting glucose is the highest glucose of the day). A high glucose in the morning is an indication that the liver is overproducing glucose at night. Often the raised morning glucose is the first sign of diabetes that we see.
      Looks like your liver is insulin resistant...

      example, 200 (triglyceride level) ÷ 55 (HDL) = 3.6 (triglyceride HDL ratio).
      Ideal triglyceride HDL ratios...
      _ideal: 2.0 or less
      _good: 4.0 to 6.0

      Dr Bikman has said the ratio of triglycerides to HDL needs to be less than 1.5 not between 4-6. That's way too high. I just watched a video with him saying this yesterday and I wrote it down. 👍

    I can't remember if it was in this video you said that uric acid causes an inflammation that raises the glucose level. And that this can lead to insulin resistance. Elsewhere I have read that insulin resistance causes an increase in uric acid. Is it a vicious circle? If so, can one break out of it without medication or is medication the way to go and then stop taking it when one is clearly no longer in MetS territory? I indicate that intermittent fasting is not enough.

    The liver stores like 5 years of B12 so very difficult to deplete the bodies B12 stores. So the Stanford twin study about depleting B12 in 2 weeks is questionable.

    Was there a retroactive study or retroactive research into offspring of women who had low B12 during pregnancy...? It seemed to me that the researchers found the offspring were all obese. I have seen something like that in my practice. The conundrum is that often the childten are underweight - even scrawny until mid childhood or puberty...

    Really appreciate your explanation against how the "plant-based" people blame saturated fat as the cause for insulin resistance. Can you further refute/explain the confusion of the people who wrote "Mastering Diabetes", who not only make that claim, but further assert that while a keto diet will show improvement in many metrics, that ultimately you will be making yourself more insulin resistant (but with nothing to trigger the insulin, if you're not eating carbs, that doesn't matter. Oh, great, someone is asking about the Mastering Diabetes people's take on this (at about 35 minutes in - but you don't seem to have answered the question deeply enough). But I have to wonder how their method can be working for them, considering that they are Type 1 diabetics. I mean, if they were wrong, it wouldn't be working for them, right? And I am not trying to poke at you as a plant-based person here (I am far from it!) - I am seeking answers to this whole nutrition thing, to help my health, and I think you might have an answer. I sense that perhaps there is a larger answer, that explains why/how you could both be right (at least in part)? And one final question: Am I understanding it right that allulose is having a similar effect as ozempic?

    I've been listening to a couple of these and wish I had this info 15 years ago when it was discovered by accident that I had insulin resistance. I had a hard birth and hemorrhage badly through a series of events i wasn't given a transfusion. This event triggered a series of new symptoms. Trying to find answers, I got a bunch of testing done by a by an endocrinologist who did research work. It was discovered I was low I'm growth hormon, and I had become insulin resistant. My insulin test, however, looked good (they said however my body wasnt. Responding to it like it should (dont know name of test but basically they did blood draws then an IV with insulin given then draws and glucose cortisoland growth hirmone tested till body returns to normal) . My glucose was fine at this time. One doctor thought I may have developed shehans syndrome . As immediately, I couldn't breastfeed (no issues with prior children) . My alderstone levels were also elevated. Overnight, I developed high blood pressure (stroke level) a few years later, as well as SVT, cognitivei went backward. Plus, more...,
    But basically, I was told nothing I could do as I couldnt afford HGH. Other than what mentioned I was supposedly healthy . No hints given to insulin resistance. (Till BP and SVT manifested). Years passed, and other physical issues manifested. In the last 2 years, my labs started flagging for glucose, inflammation, T3, and cholesterol labs. As well as a few others. Not diabetic yet though. By this point I've gained a bunch of weight (used to be very active) and it just keeps getting worse.
    Last week I started a keto diet with virta health. Im hoping some things get better.
    Thanks for the info.

    So fructose has a double whammy no ? it directly raises insulin and it also raises insulin via uric acid ?
    Fascinating how Uric acid can raise insulin. I just had some bloods done 3 months ago. My A1c was 5.7%, fasting glucose was 92. My fasting insulin though was 14. Funnily enough my Uric acid was outside of the upper normal range. I looked at my diet. Apart from eating copious amounts of white rice, pasta, chocolate and other refined carbs I used to drink a bucket load of apple juice, like 500ml a day easy. Also I was pretty heavy on the whole fruit but I'm sure it was the liquid fructose that was doing the damage. Needless to say I no longer drink liquid fruit.

    The idea that raised insulin itself creates insulin resistance I’ve never quite believed - it’s often said reductionism is nonsense yet we jump to it all the time. Eat a high sugar meal. Insulin rises ( the beta cells don’t really respond to glucose.. but that’s another story..). But insulin is a master hormone and regulates many other hormones. For the next 5 hours or so (according to experiments) as sugar levels start to drop this itself is perceived as an emergency and Adrenalin and cortisol rise. So we’re really back to the 2nd primary cause apparently. In the case of isolated cells in culture, don’t they require to produce inositol and it’s phosphates metabolites to allow insulin receptors to work - where are they getting the substrate force this - maybe I’m missing something here?
