In this podcast, I discuss how high blood sugar levels can destroy your organs and what to do about it. Glucotoxicity is the toxicity of glucose (sugar). There are two things that happen—a massive oxidation effect and glycation. 1. Oxidation – Can happen in the arteries, brain, nerves, etc. and the body starts healing it with proteins, calcium, and cholesterol as a plaque. 2. Glycation – Is the effect of heating up and combining glucose with a protein. It alters the proteins in the body and makes them unusable. It creates a lot of damage in the tissues which can happen anywhere in the body.

1:24.4	Okay, so you start getting placking.
1:25.7	That's the band-aid that happens after oxidation.
