2
Take a few moments to think about your most vital organs in your body.
3
Those organs that you cannot live without.
4
OK, got them?
5
Excellent.
6
You probably thought about your heart.
7
I bet brain popped into your mind.
8
Lungs.
9
But did any of you think, my pancreas, I can't live without my pancreas?
10
I'm assuming most of you probably didn't.
11
I am a naturopathic doctor, and I love educating people about the importance of the pancreas, which is located right here, tucked behind your stomach, behind your left lower rib cage.
12
Inside your pancreas is a small cluster of cells called beta cells.
13
You only have two grams, actually.
14
It's the size of like two almonds.
15
Well, these life-giving cells surprisingly get no attention.
16
Yet, if they were to wither away in the absence of medical intervention, you would literally die within a few weeks.
17
That is how important your beta cells are.
18
You would die.
19
Here's how they work.
20
Any time you eat sugar or highly refined carbohydrates, that sugar circulates in your blood from your head to your toe, throughout your body.
21
The beta cells are the security guards for your blood, and as soon as they see this rush of sugar, they send the alarm bells off.
22
They call in a team of dump trucks to haul all that sugar out.
23
Well, the dump trucks are called insulin, and insulin's job is to pick up all that sugar out of the blood and feed it to your liver, your muscles, or store it as fat, because you don't want all that excess sugar hanging out in your blood.
24
This seems pretty innocent, right?
25
But here's the problem.
26
Millions and millions today are overworking their security force.
27
Overworking your beta cells doesn't happen with obvious foods, like cake and ice cream,
28
but it also happens with highly refined carbohydrate foods, like yogurt and granola, cereal, bread, pasta, alcohol, even when used in moderation.
29
Any time you eat these foods, your beta cells send the alarm bells off to make more insulin.
30
And this is scary, because just like anything that gets overused, from cars to computers, the parts eventually wear out.
31
leading to beta cell burnout.
32
This is another name for prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, which you really don't want to suffer from.
33
Beta cell burnout can happen to anyone, and it has a lot to do with your food choices.
34
As your beta cells weaken through the years, the blood sugar level starts to rise to a dangerous level, maybe even unbeknownst to you.
35
If the beta cells get really weak and you don't pick it up, your diet doesn't change, you will likely need to take insulin injections every day for the rest of your life to stay alive.
36
But the good news is, reversing beta cell burnout is entirely possible, just with a few small dietary tweaks and lifestyle changes, especially when caught early.
37
I specialize in diabetes.
38
I also am an expert, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when I was just seven years old.
39
So the effects of sugar have been a lifelong study for me.
40
Now, the cause of type 1 is very different than the pandemic of type 2 today that we're hearing so much about.
41
In type 1, the immune system attacked and killed all of my beta cells and killed them.
42
They're gone.
43
When I was seven.
44
Why it did this is still not understood.
45
But as a result, without my beta cells, I take insulin injections every single day, and I've taken over 100,000 in my lifetime thus far.
46
Living with type 1 in a way has been a gift though, because I'm so motivated not to eat sugar.
47
When I eat sugar, my blood sugar level skyrockets, and I feel awful.
48
I get a headache, I feel cranky.
49
If the phone rings, I don't want to get it because I'm irritable, and I just want to take a nap.
50
Most people walk around oblivious to this direct correlation between what you've eaten and how you feel.
51
So the negative effects on all of you living with beta cells, you're lucky enough to still have them, is much more subtle, but potentially just as deadly.
52
The good news is, saving your beta cells is entirely in your hands.
53
You know, this talk wouldn't have applied even 10 years ago, when sugar wasn't added to everything that we eat, and it was just used as a special occasion.
54
Are you aware that there are only 10 companies that own the entire world's food brands?
55
And the reality is, the sweeter a food is, the more it sells.
56
So when you eat sugar, you might immediately feel a rush of energy and kind of feel good.
57
Think, wow, sugar makes me feel great.
58
But the reality is, an hour or two later, if you pay attention, you'll likely feel zapped.
59
You might not be able to concentrate, you might kind of want to take a nap, or you might want to eat more sugar.
60
If we keep doing this over a lifetime, the beta cells get weak,
61
the blood sugar level slowly starts to rise, and over time,
62
high blood sugar causes heart disease, kidney failure, strokes, gangrene, blindness, Alzheimer's, lower limb amputation, depression, violent behavior and more.
63
The amount of deaths caused by sugar, all of these afflictions combined, leads to more deaths than automobile accidents.
64
Imagine that!
65
At the rate we are consuming sugar today, sugar is not a treat.
66
Ladies and gentlemen, at the rate we're consuming it today, sugar has become a gradual death sentence.
67
But the good news is, like I said, this is something, a major problem that we have in our hands.
68
My patient Pam, she was just freaking out.
69
she thought something was entirely wrong with her.
70
She goes, I'm just tired all the time.
71
I feel good in the morning, but then I drag, and I can't focus, and I'm cranky.
72
She goes, something is wrong with me.
73
Will you check my thyroid?
74
Do I have a brain tumor?
75
Is that why I can't think?
76
I said, Pam, before we run all those expensive tests, I just want to ask you, what do you have for breakfast?
77
And she said, well, I have a vanilla latte.
78
Get a few extra pumps of vanilla because I love it.
79
And then I have some zucchini bread.
80
I said, well, okay, let me tell you something.
81
Vanilla is syrup, you realize that, right?
82
It's not the vanilla bean, it's the syrup, lots of sugar.
83
And zucchini bread, you might as well call it zucchini cake.
84
I mean, let's be real, okay?
85
Zucchini muffin, whatever.
86
It's all cake.
87
Muffins, they're just cake without frosting.
88
So I said, before I run all these expensive tests, why don't you just start your day with protein?
89
Let's just have a handful of eggs for breakfast, maybe some sliced apples with peanut butter.
90
When you start your day with balanced blood sugar level, I think your energy is going It's going to be a lot better.
91
Just saying.
92
Two weeks later, I get an email full of exclamation points.
93
Nothing's wrong with me!
94
I feel great!
95
I'm having protein for breakfast, and everybody's like, what have you done?
96
You're so happy now.
97
Changing your life can be this simple.
98
It doesn't have to be overwhelming.
99
But I get it.
100
It's so easy to fall into the traps laid by the 1.5 trillion dollar processed food industry today.
101
They label so many high sugar foods as healthy.
102
Gummy vitamins, right?
103
They're gummy bears.
104
Let's not be...
105
Come on.
106
Yogurts, many yogurts today, blueberry, strawberry, yogurt, they have more sugar, ounce per ounce, than Coca-Cola.
107
Kids are eating fruit chews today.
108
Kids, are you aware they're not fruit?
109
They're not fruit.
110
It's sugar and fruit flavoring.
111
There was a study done in rats that showed chronic sugar consumption creates as much damage to the brain as abuse done in childhood.
112
Teens are drinking less soda today, but they've replaced it with sports drinks and energy drinks.
113
These drinks are shamefully being touted as healthy, yet they are a key part of the obesity epidemic that's spreading today.
114
And all of you parents out there, and grandparents and loved ones, right?
115
the birthday parties, right?
116
The six-year-old, they just ate their cake and ice cream, and now they're running around like a bunch of screaming banshees.
117
This behavior is a direct result of the sugar intake.
118
This happens in schools every day.
119
And the sad thing is, we're still doing it as adults.
120
Pasta and beer, pizza and beer, pasta and bread, it's the same effect.
121
According to the World Health Organization, there are over 420 million people today with type 2 diabetes, and that number just keeps going up.
122
In America alone, if our eating habits do not change in the next few decades, that will be one in three.
123
That means it will likely be somebody you know and love.
124
Or it might be you.
125
We have all become so brainwashed to think that sugar on a daily basis is okay.
126
Frankly, it's reminiscent of when doctors used to endorse smoking.
127
Remember that?
128
The posters of the athletes and the bikes smoking?
129
Listen to this.
130
This makes me so angry.
131
I volunteer at diabetes camps, and so I see kids and what they eat every day, every summer, And the standard recommendations given to children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes today
132
is that they can eat as much sugar as they want and just take more insulin for it.
133
The blood sugar fluctuations that this way of eating causes to their precious growing bodies is a medical tragedy.
134
And it's devastating because the solution is so simple.
135
we need to eat less sugar.
136
Now, I've got to admit, I love cookies.
137
So I'm not talking about never eating sugar again.
138
Let's be real here, right?
139
When I work with patients, I teach them the 80-20 principle.
140
80% of the time, keep your food in a healthy, wholesome choices, and then put your sugar in the 20%.
141
Put it over here.
142
The highly processed carb foods, 20%, over here.
143
But we've got it switched, right?
144
We're kind of like 20 healthy and 80 sugar.
145
Our future depends on a healthy society.
146
Your contribution is needed in today's crazy world.
147
Sugar is never going to get you feeling your best.
148
And sugar is never going to help motivate you to have a great day.
149
Look at Pam.
150
So I ask you this.
151
Would you like to have more energy?
152
Would you like to have less anxiety, a better memory, more productivity, better skin, better sleep, more joy?
153
Reducing sugar and highly processed carbohydrate foods from your diet could change your life.
154
I see it every day with patients I've helped all around the world.
155
Now, some of you might be feeling resistant, like, oh, I'm just overwhelmed.
156
It's like making a big change.
157
I feel paralyzed.
158
Or you've tried it before and you've failed.
159
Have no fear.
160
I have you covered.
161
Because when you want to make a big change in your life, you have to start with just small steps.
162
That's all you need.
163
So I've got you covered.
164
I have three steps for you to try over the next...
165
You can apply them today.
166
If you're feeling really motivated, try all three.
167
Number one, have protein for breakfast.
168
Start your day with balanced blood sugar level.
169
Then you're giving your body that balanced energy.
170
Trust me, you don't want to be like this.
171
I do it a lot.
172
I do my best to avoid it, but have protein for breakfast.
173
Number two, next time you're feeling really that you just want a sweet, you know, you just had a meal, but now you're like, you're like, I want something more after dinner or afternoon, you want a sugary snack, grab a glass of water first.
174
Being dehydrated actually can feel like being hungry.
175
And so why don't you try water first?
176
You'll probably feel more energized because a 5% decrease in hydration can correlate to a 20% decrease in energy.
177
So you'll have more energy and you probably won't need that sugary snack that will only pop you up for a little bit and then drop you.
178
Number three, there are so many wonderful low-carb replacements now for high-carb foods.
179
Pizza crust is made out of cauliflower, pasta can be made out of zucchini noodles, and I love cookies, so I make chocolate chip cookies out of almond flour, and stevia is my sweetener.
180
There are so many great ones out there.
181
In conclusion, what I want to leave you with is this, if it isn't already obvious.
182
Reducing sugar in your diet could be life-changing for you.
183
Life-changing.
184
Please, you have beta cells, protect them.
185
You have the knowledge and you have the power.
186
When you reduce the sugar in your diet, you'll be using your meals as they were intended to, to fuel you into greatness.
187
Thank you.
