Did you know that potassium deficiency could trigger diabetes? Learn more about the importance of potassium for diabetes and high blood pressure. DATA: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1619503/ https://ucfhealth.com/our-services/endocrinology/the-relationship-between-potassium-and-diabetes/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3197792/ 0:00 Introduction: Potassium and diabetes  0:15 Blood pressure medications and diabetes  2:47 Potassium benefits  3:45 Potassium RDAs 4:02 Foods high in potassium  5:45 Type 1 diabetes and potassium  6:33 Learn more about potassium! Today we're going to talk about how potassium affects diabetes and high blood pressure. Diuretics are commonly used to treat high blood pressure. But, they come with side effects, including an increased risk of developing diabetes.    On the flip side, ace inhibitors, also used to treat high blood pressure, protect against diabetes and lower the risk of diabetes. I believe the big difference between these two drugs, when it comes to diabetes risk, is what they do to potassium. Diuretics deplete potassium, and without enough potassium, insulin can't be released very well. A deficiency of insulin can then lead to diabetes. Ace inhibitors increase potassium by helping to prevent the loss of potassium. So why do we even need a drug—why aren't we just consuming more potassium? Many people support healthy blood pressure and healthy blood sugar levels by taking potassium. Benefits of potassium:  • It protects the kidneys • It protects the heart  • It helps protect against stroke  • It helps protect against diabetes  • It helps power the nervous system in connection with the muscles  • It helps regulate sodium The RDAs for potassium are 4700 mg. It might surprise you, but bananas aren't a good source of potassium. A few of the best sources of potassium are:   • Leafy greens  • Potatoes  • Avocado  • Electrolyte powder Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 58, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

We Ought to Eat Bugs & Insects to Save the Planet - Dr. Berg

Are insects the sustainable food source of the future? Find out if eating bugs will save the planet. 0:00 Introduction: Should we eat bugs? 0:47 Are bugs a good alternative protein source? 2:11 Bugs vs. beef 2:35 Insects and pathogens 4:12 Check out my video on what you SHOULD be eating for your health! In this video, we’re going to take a look at edible bugs as an alternative protein source. Some say that we should be eating bugs by 2050 because of the growing population. Some blame climate change or claim that beef is not sustainable and that we need to find other sources of food. One hundred grams of bugs contains about 12 grams of protein, 5 grams of fat, and 5 grams of carbs. If we were to eat insects as food, we’d need to eat 4x to 8x this amount to get enough protein! It could become quite expensive to consume this many bugs each day. The cost of edible insects could be lowered by lowering the quality of what they’re fed, but then the bugs will be less nutritious with less protein. Eating insects would also require people to give up their cultural and traditional foods which is not likely. When you compare bugs to beef, insects do not come close in terms of protein or nutritional value. Insects also carry pathogens. A 2019 study evaluated several cricket farms that were developing edible insects. Around 81% of the crickets had parasites and 30% were potentially pathogenic. There's also a higher incidence of worms, viruses, bacteria, and fungus in crickets. If you have an allergy to shellfish, you may also have an allergy to edible insects because they contain a similar protein. Bugs have an exoskeleton mainly composed of chitin which is an antinutrient and can not be digested by our microbiome. Chitin also blocks vitamins A and E. #keto #ketodiet #weightloss #ketolifestyle Thanks for watching! I hope this increases your awareness about the reality of eating insects.

The Corrupt Food Industry Lurking In Your Child's School Lunch

Over 70% of your child’s diet comes from ultra-processed foods. Refined sugars, starches, and seed oils are destroying their brains. Watch this fascinating interview with Hilary Boynton, founder of School of Lunch, who aims to halt this junk food epidemic. Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: The ultra-processed diet in children 0:36 Welcome, Hilary Boynton 3:38 The benefits of a healthy diet for children 6:06 Hilary’s training program 9:41 Please donate to Hilary’s GoFundMe! 11:02 Food and health, a vicious cycle Hilary Boynton is the founder of the organization School of Lunch. She has developed a training program to teach schools around the country how to create healthy, nourishing meals for our children. Hilary’s family health journey led her to develop School of Lunch. Hilary is a mother of 5 who’s dealt with infertility, eczema, epilepsy, speech delays, cancer, and Alzheimer’s. Hilary’s family moved to California during her husband’s battle against cancer. There, she teamed up with a local school and began working on their lunch program. She started as the snack coordinator, then became the consultant to the lunch lady, and was finally given the keys to the kitchen. Inspired by Dr. Weston A. Price's works, Hilary began exploring the importance of traditional, ancestral foods and our health. She familiarized herself with the gut-brain and gut-body connection. After implementing these dietary changes, kids no longer felt the ups and downs of their energy and mood throughout the school day. Kids and their teachers, who followed the same diet, were satiated and energized throughout the day. These benefits trickled into the children’s home lives, encouraging parents to join in after seeing the visible improvements. Hilary realized that more schools needed this information. Improving their food could greatly benefit schools, hospitals, churches, community centers, and more. If you’re able, please donate to Hilary’s amazing cause! Doctors do not factor in food when treating chronic illnesses caused by an ultra-processed diet. Hilary’s program aims to turn this vicious cycle around not by simply changing the diet but by empowering children to understand the power of food.

You need to understand exercise principles to get the most out of your workout. Here's the best exercise advice to really maximize your results.

Today, we're going to talk about the principles of exercise. Understanding these principles will help keep you from getting locked into a specific routine or wasting your time with certain workouts. Exercise comes down to two different types, anaerobic and aerobic. Understanding these two types of exercise will give you the ability to adjust your workout to your needs and maximize your results. Anaerobic exercise: Without oxygen Duration: short Intensity: high Recovery: long Frequency: less often Goal: increasing muscle growth, strength, and speed Aerobic exercise: With oxygen Duration: long Intensity: low Recovery: short Frequency: more often Goal: endurance You'll see the most benefits if you do both anaerobic and aerobic exercises. This combination will help you maintain your muscles and endurance. If you build up to doing the high-intensity workout required for anaerobic exercise—you only need to do the workout one to two times per week. A good example of a high-intensity workout is high-intensity interval training or HIIT. On the other days of the week, you need to recover or try aerobic exercise. You can do aerobic exercise three to seven days a week. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
