1
Too much glucose.
2
coming to the cell, The cell wall develops insulin resistance.
3
You've heard of insulin resistance?
4
It's as if the cell says, "I'm sick of the side of you." And so the glucose stays in the cell.
5
In the blood, sorry.
6
In the blood.
7
can't get out of the blood and into the cell because of insulin resistance.
8
AND SO THE BRAIN SEES There's still too much glucose in the blood, so it starts screaming at the pancreas, "More insulin!
9
More insulin !" And so the pancreas is releasing more insulin, more insulin.
10
The problem isn't that we need more insulin, the problem is we've got insulin resistance.
11
And what's the body going to do now with all this glucose in the blood?
12
It'll just spill out in the urine.
13
Did you know that diabetes mellitus means sweet urine?
14
The glucose can't get into the cell so it's spilled out in the urine.
15
because they noticed that the ants were feeding on urine.
16
So they tested the urine.
17
This is back in the early 1800s.
18
when they first diagnosed diabetes.
19
Diabetes was not around until sugar was refined.
20
And they noticed that this problem didn't happen in the little villages with the poor people, because they couldn't afford sugar.
21
It was only the wealthy ones that could afford the sugar, and it was the wealthy clients were getting the diabetes.
22
There's no doubt about it.
23
This refined sugar has played a huge role in diabetes.
24
Mm -hmm.
25
Thank you.
26
There's a book called Sugar Blues.
27
It's a fascinating book by William Dufty and he gives the history of sugar.
28
But something else has happened.
29
Something else has happened that has caused this explosion in diabetes.
30
And it's something to do with the grain that is in the majority of cereals, the majority of breads.
31
all the cakes, biscuits, donuts, cookies, in fact we've got a lot of ticks there, what majority of pizzas are made out of,
32
what the majority of pastas are made of, It's wheat.
33
So what's the problem with wheat?
34
One lady said to me, "But Barbara, God made wheat good." I said, "He did." "And Jesus is called the bread of life." I said,
35
"He is." But the bread that Jesus referred to is not the bread we have today.
36
It used to be called the staff of life.
37
I'd like to suggest, as you will see, it's almost the staff of DEV today.
38
Except for Tristan's bread, of course.
39
Thank you. So why?
40
Well, back in the 1950s, Wheat was put through intensive crossbreeding.
41
They wanted to create a plant with a high yield of grain.
42
To help with the starvation crisis in Africa, Mexico, India, And they put this through intensive crossbreeding.
43
Now at first, because when I was a little girl, the wheat used to grow that high.
44
And at first, the stalk would break under the weight of the heavy load of grain.
45
So back to the drawing board.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
