0:00.0	Today we're going to talk about how to block the effects of sugar and other carbs and other things as well.
0:07.4	If the person's on the ketogenic diet and they somehow come off the ketogenic diet and they
0:12.0	eat something that they shouldn't be eating.
0:13.6	How do they neutralize the effects of that?
0:16.2	That's what we're going to talk about.
0:17.3	All right, so let's start with number one, sugar.
0:20.3	Your friend has just eaten some sugar.
0:22.4	What should they do to counteract the effects of the sugar?
0:25.4	Now the damaging part of sugar is that it tends to act like rust in your arteries,
0:31.0	destroys your energy factories, your mitochondria.
0:34.4	You have something called the glycemic index, right, of foods, so you eat a certain food and
0:39.1	the higher the sugar, the higher the spike, and it creates damage.
0:43.4	And so each carbohydrate has an index from high to low.
0:46.9	And you also have something else called
0:49.2	the glycemic load, and that's looking at the
0:51.5	carbohydrate in food, but it's also taking into
0:54.3	consideration fiber because fiber tends to buffer and inhibit this sugar spike
1:01.6	and so out of all the carbohydrates fiber which is a
1:06.0	carbohydrate has no effect on insulin so other carbohydrates will raise
1:10.5	insulin but not fiber so it's. And so the more something has
1:14.5	fiber in it, the less the sugar effects, like carrots for example are load with
1:19.7	fiber and so it's really hard to spike the blood sugar if you're consuming a carrot.
