What High Protein Food Raises Insulin More Than Pasta? The Answer May Be a Key to Controlling Blood

Posted on September 27, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on What High Protein Food Raises Insulin More Than Pasta? The Answer May Be a Key to Controlling Blood

#insulinresistance#reversediabetes#prediabetes

Let me explain why some high protein foods raise insulin more than some high carb foods. Most people know that insulin is necessary for blood sugar control. Most people don’t know that insulin stimulates body fat production and high insulin levels are at the core of serious self problems such as obesity, diabetes, high triglycerides and high blood pressure. Most people know that carbs raise blood sugar and insulin levels. But few people know that protein also raises insulin levels even if proteins don’t raise blood sugar. For example, beef has an insulin index score of 51 compared to pasta which has an insulin index score of 40. This is because beef is rich in protein which stimulates insulin release just as carbs do. This is why it’s better to control blood sugar by eating more fiber, which helps to reduce insulin levels than by eating more protein which can increase insulin levels.

Why Type 2 Diabetes is a Disease of High Insulin Levels

Posted on September 26, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on Why Type 2 Diabetes is a Disease of High Insulin Levels

It seems paradoxical, while type 1 diabetes is a disease in which the body has virtually no insulin. Type 2 diabetes is a disease of too much insulin. How is this possible? The key is insulin resistance, which causes high insulin levels. You see, a job of insulin is to work like a key that opens a door to sugar and amino acids to move out of the bloodstream into the body’s cells where they can be used for energy  and metabolism. When there is insulin resistance, the insulin doesn’t work properly, and sugar and amino acids remain in the bloodstream. This signals the pancreas to put out more and more insulin and you wind up with high insulin levels. The problem with this is that insulin is lipogenic and helps produce body fat and contributes to obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, high triglycerides, and cancer. Because both carbs and proteins raise insulin levels, the key is in modifying both dietary carbs and protein. See my next and previous videos about controlling insulin levels.

#insulinresistance#reversediabetes#prediabetesWhy type 2 diabetes is a disease of high insulin levels. When insulin resistance decreases the effectiveness of insulin The pancreas has to put out more insulin to deal with the high blood sugar level. The problem is that high insulin levels causes high blood pressure and other health problems. #drshintani#reversediabetes. #insulinresistance. #reverseinsulinresistance. #highinsulin. #insulinsensitivity. ##bloodsugarcontrol ##prediabetes#greenscreen

The study conducted with adults showed an increase in blood flow to key areas of the brain along with improvements in memory and attention span. The superfood is Blueberry, other studies showed that different forms of blueberries were also useful. Supplementation with blueberry juice for 12 weeks improved memory function in adults over 50 and a Harvard study showed that daily consumption of freeze dried blueberry powder slows the mental decline of seniors by two and a half years. Another way to keep blueberries fresh is to freeze them and eat them as a cold desert. So to optimize your brain function, consider consuming blueberries regularly.

Extend Life by 10% With This Nutrient? Experimental Mice Lived 10% Longer Than Expected When Given

Posted on September 24, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on Extend Life by 10% With This Nutrient? Experimental Mice Lived 10% Longer Than Expected When Given

#anticancer#l#telomeres

Here’s what it is, and 8 foods that are high in this anti-aging anti-cancer neuroprotective super nutrient. A major cause of physical aging is the build up of old cells that should be recycled in a process called autophagy. This makes way for newer, healthier, more youthful cells. This flavonoid called “fisetin” appears to induce autophagy, which is the natural clearing of these aging cells leaving you with younger cells to live with. It has also been shown to protect telomeres, the endcaps of DNA, which helps to extend healthy life. Experimentally, mice given fisetin lived 10% longer than expected. In laboratory studies it’s been found to inhibit cancer cell growth, protect brain cells, and protect kidneys for diabetic damage. Here are 8 foods high in this supernutrient: strawberries, apples, persimmons, onions, grapes, kiwi fruit, kale, and cucumbers. So to improve your health, try these foods.

High Fat Diet or Low-fat Diet, Which is Better for Insulin Resistance

Posted on September 23, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on High Fat Diet or Low-fat Diet, Which is Better for Insulin Resistance

Most people seem to be aware that insulin resistance is at the heart of high blood sugar and type 2 diabetes, but which is better for insulin resistance? A high fat diet or a low fat diet? In 1935, researchers conducted a study that answers this question. Researchers took people with normal blood sugars and placed them on diets with gradually increasing fat percentages and evaluated them with a glucose tolerance test with each level. The results show that the higher the fat intake, the worse the glucose tolerance. In other words, insulin resistance got worse with more fat. In this study, people on a 58% fat diet had blood sugar levels nearly double the level of blood sugar of those on a 24% fat diet. This suggests that fat contributed to insulin resistance. More recent studies indicate that it is saturated fat that really contributes to insulin resistance. So for less insulin resistance, consider reducing your saturated fat intake, and make sure you replace it with whole unprocessed food.

#insulinresistance#reversediabetes#bloodsugarcontrolHigh fat diet or low-fat diet, which is better for insulin resistance. Research showed that the higher, the fat intake, the higher the insulin resistance. Resort indicates it’s mainly the saturated fat that contributes to insulin resistance. #drshintani#reversediabetes. #insulinresistance. #bloodsugarcontrol. #reversetype2diabetes. #diabetescontrol. #insulinsensitivity. #reverseprediabetes.

If you feel the spirit, please pray with us to stop the escalation of war

Posted on September 23, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on If you feel the spirit, please pray with us to stop the escalation of war

Today is the international day of peace, and yet parts of the world are at war and innocent people are dying. Hi, I’m Dr. Shintani, a Third generation American physician and Hawaiian elder of Japanese ancestry. My Ancestors are from Hiroshima, and yet my father was born an American CItizen in 1914 and was drafted into the US army in World War II. So my family understands the dilemma of war, the pain of the senseless loss of lives of friends and relatives. So let us pray together to stop the escalation of war, so that another World War never be given a chance to happen again. Please put in the comments from where you are praying to strengthen the geographic power of this prayer. In our last prayer people from 34 countries and 41 states participated. So please share so we can pray together as a world community, let us pray. Dear Heavenly father, blessed be thy name, humbly we come before thee on this the International day of peace, seeking thy divine guidance and intervention. We implore thee of thy infinite mercy that thy spirit of wisdom, compassion, and love enter our world leaders. Guiding them to seek peaceful solutions to conflicts that claim too many innocent lives. We ask for the healing of those who suffer and for the protection and swift release of any hostages, and most of all we ask your blessing of the departed souls and thy intervention that the killing be stopped, and that thy peace may prevail on earth. Those things we pray, Amen. Thank you for your prayers, and please remember to put from where you’re praying from, and remember our next prayer on Gandhi day which is october 2nd. I wish you happy health, happiness and peace, Aloha. #drshintani #internationalpeaceday #peaceprayer #prayerforworldpeace #prayerforpeace #internationaldayofpeace ##greenscreen #drshintani #internationalpeaceday #peaceprayer #prayerforworldpeace #prayerforpeace #internationaldayofpeace
