0.199 -> Hey guys, in this video we're going to talk about how to fix hypoglycemia, all right?
3.62 -> Now, what is hypoglycemia?
5.609 -> Hypoglycemia is a situation where the blood sugars go too low.
9.599 -> Normally in the body you should have blood sugars of 100.
13.29 -> What does that mean?
14.759 -> I'll give you a little comparison.
16.35 -> If you were to weigh let's say 180 pounds, you'd have about a gallon and a half of blood
22.24 -> in your entire body.
23.59 -> The amount of sugar that would be diluted in there to equal 100 would be about one teaspoon,
29.65 -> so it's really very small amounts of sugar.
31.8 -> And it doesn't mean you have to eat sugar, your body can make sugar from other types
37.11 -> of things, like protein, even fat.
39.15 -> So it's not that you even have to eat any sugar at all.
42.4 -> But the point is that we need this normal blood sugar to maintain fuel in the body.
47.38 -> Okay, it should be 100.
48.58 -> When it drops down below 70 that's when you start getting the symptoms of hypoglycemia.
53.99 -> Brain fog, cravings for sweets, anxiety, fatigue, shakiness, weakness.
60.79 -> It's kind of like if you have kids, you know, and let's say you're bringing them grocery
65.43 -> shopping with you when they're hungry and tired.
67.649 -> They're going to experience all these, specifically irritability, right?
71.85 -> And that's how low blood sugar ... And they're just going the go a little crazy on you.
76.509 -> The point is that when those blood sugars crash it pushes you out of the present and
80.421 -> you don't think rationally, and you'll eat things that you end up regretting.
85.38 -> Here's what happens, and this is the problem, is that the doctors, the medical profession
91.84 -> is telling people to keep some candy in their pocket, or glucose tablets.
97.529 -> In case your blood sugars run low, go ahead and take some candy and bring 'em back up.
102.45 -> And these are even diabetics.
106.45 -> They're looking at this problem very superficially.
108.279 -> It's kind of like if you stub your toe, and well here, just take a pain pill every time
115.189 -> you stub your toe.
116.459 -> But like, why don't we just look at why you're stubbing your toe in the same spot?
120.34 -> The why is this: if you're taking medication and it's spiking it ... insulin too high and
128.729 -> your blood sugars are coming down too fast, it could be that you're taking too much medication.
134.89 -> You just need to lessen the medication.
136.65 -> Rather than try to correct it at the blood sugar level to add more sugar into the mix
141.819 -> which will create more problem, why not just take a little less next time to even it out.
147.189 -> That's one solution.
148.72 -> Next solution is to get out of the diet what triggers this in the first place, and I have
154.459 -> a ton of videos on that, I'll put them down below.
156.209 -> You know, the sugars, refined carbohydrates, and things like that.
159.969 -> But I want to tell you an equally important thing.
162.819 -> It has to do with the opposing hormone to insulin.
168.489 -> Insulin reacts to glucose, and what it does is it lowers blood sugar.
175.89 -> So there's a hormone that does the opposite, and it's made by the pancreas.
181.77 -> Insulin is made by the pancreas, but this hormone is also made by the pancreas too,
186.3 -> and this is the missing piece and I'm going to explain why.
188.819 -> It's called glucagon.
192.5 -> Glucagon, okay?
198.719 -> So that kind of does the opposite of insulin.
201.01 -> So if insulin lowers blood sugars, glucagon raises blood sugars.
208.11 -> What it does is it mobilizes and releases stored sugar from your liver and even the
215.28 -> muscles.
216.28 -> So you have this thing called glycogen that's stored sugar, glucagon releases that to keep
220.099 -> the sugars constant.
221.7 -> You have this constant thing where your insulin and glucagon are working together, all right?
227.56 -> So now here's the question.
230.129 -> Why don't we just increase glucagon instead of eating candy?
235.25 -> Why don't we do that?
238.14 -> Well, because people don't really understand what triggers glucagon, so I'm teaching you
241.879 -> right now.
243.22 -> The main food that will trigger glucagon is, ready for this?
250.93 -> Protein.
253.579 -> Moderate amount of protein, not a lot.
254.579 -> You just need a moderate ... between three to maybe five ounces of protein.
260.04 -> Protein will trigger glucagon, and I have a little story.
263.39 -> I had blood sugar issues when I was very young, and then one day for breakfast, I would normally
270.78 -> have a carbohydrate breakfast, I decided to have some protein.
275.32 -> And it was like a switch.
277.39 -> I instantly like could think again, I was feeling so much better mentally.
281.38 -> I was clear, I wasn't all foggy like I used to be, ant that was because of this situation
287.68 -> right here.
288.68 -> It brought it up normally.
290.95 -> The point is if you're doing a very low protein diet, and you're not having protein with each
295.86 -> meal ... and I'm not saying have a lot, just a little bit, especially in the morning if
300.28 -> you're going to have breakfast, then you could be having this hypoglycemic reaction.
306.55 -> That's one cause, another one would be you're eating too much sugar, the third one would
309.74 -> be you're basically eating ... You're a diabetic and you're taking medication that's too much,
315.19 -> you need to adjust that.
318.78 -> Hypoglycemia is very, very easy to correct if you understand this right here.
323.37 -> I put some links down below of the eating plan for, like, insulin resistance and things
328.31 -> like that.
329.36 -> But the point I want to make is instead of going for that candy in your pocket, protein
334.39 -> would be the thing you need to do to drive it up.
337.1 -> Then as far as a meal goes, to really correct this even long-term, you don't want to have
342.49 -> snacks between the meal.
343.81 -> Now I know hypoglycemics need to eat between the meals because their blood sugars crash.
348.84 -> Well a much better thing to do would be to add a little fat with that meal, so you have
353.7 -> like a good amount of vegetables, protein and fat.
357.08 -> Healthy fats like avocado, or coconut oil, or even some animal fats if you're ... or
363.62 -> even butter.
365.65 -> The point is if you do that, that will not spike insulin, it gets you to go longer, less
372.68 -> drops in blood sugars, and if you do that consistently you can actually heal this whole
376.59 -> mechanism and completely not be hypoglycemic anymore.
380.9 -> It's also good for hyperglycemia as well, that's diabetes.
386.78 -> I wanted to mention this point about protein, so stop having the candy in the pocket.
390.93 -> Don't do the glucose tablets.
392.98 -> They even have these little shakes you can do of pure sugar.
396.81 -> You're never going to fix your problem that way.
399.79 -> Do the protein, and put your comments below.
402.06 -> Thank you for watching.
