0:00.0 | I'm going to show you how to get rid of hypoglycemia with just one tiny, simple change. |
0:08.3 | Now, what is hypoglycemia? Well, technically, it's a blood sugar that's below 70 milligrams |
0:14.4 | per deciliter. And it's actually rare to have blood sugar being low when you have hypoglycemic |
0:22.2 | symptoms. The great majority of time you have all the symptoms yet your blood sugars are normal. |
0:27.8 | And when I talk about symptoms, I'm talking about shakiness, irritable, anxiety, hungry, |
0:33.2 | sweating, headache, can't concentrate, blurry eyes. And so you hear this a lot where, |
0:38.3 | oh, my blood sugars are crashing, I need to go eat something, right? But most of the time, |
0:43.2 | if you were to check your blood sugars, it's just normal. So what is going on? Well, |
0:47.1 | I want to explain this by using ear plugs. Okay, if I were to put these ear plugs in my ears |
0:54.3 | right now and you were to talk to me, I wouldn't be able to hear you. In fact, you would have to |
0:59.5 | shout at me or me to hear you to penetrate this resistance. So with hypoglycemia, |
1:09.2 | you have something going on. You have this resistance. It's called insulin resistance. Okay, |

1:23.0 | regarding blood sugars, your body has this superior, I don't know if it's like a law in the body or |
1:31.1 | superior principle that no matter what, it's very, very, very important to keep your blood sugars |
1:36.8 | normal. And it's even more important to keep the blood sugars higher than lower for survival. |
1:42.6 | Your body will do all sorts of things to prevent this lowering of your blood sugar. Your brain |
1:48.1 | needs glucose or certain parts of it. And without that glucose, you will not be able to survive. |
1:52.8 | And so insulin is the main hormone that comes in there and lowers your blood glucose if it's too |
1:58.0 | high after you eat. And insulin is triggered by two things. It's the carbohydrates that you eat |
2:04.6 | and how refined they are or how much concentrated sugar. And also it's the frequency of eating. So |
2:10.0 | if you eat a lot of meals, a lot of snacks, you're going to keep spiking insulin over and over and |
