In this podcast, we’re going to talk about fasting and diabetes. Is fasting healthy for diabetics? If you have diabetes, this video is for you.

In the United States alone, there are about 84 million people who are pre-diabetic and 30 million who are diabetic. There is also a large number of people who have insulin resistance and are on their way to becoming a diabetic.

There are two main mechanisms with diabetes medications:

1. Targeting insulin resistance

2. Increasing insulin

The medications that increase insulin also increase the risk of cardiovascular mortality by 59-68%.

0:29.0	Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Kito and Interminute fasting podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and actually healthy for a diabetic.
0:47.0	Did you realize that 20% of all health care spending in the US is targeted to diabetes and diabetic
0:57.9	complications. Now there are some mixed reviews that state that it's 10% some experts say that it's 20% regardless if it's 10% or 20% it's a lot of
1:09.3	money that's like 350 billion to 700 billion dollars a year spent That is crazy.

1:57.0	And as far as medication goes with diabetes, there's two main mechanisms. One is targeting insulin resistance with metformin, which is probably one of the
2:08.8	most popular medication. And then you have other medications, this is an example, that will increase insulin.
2:17.0	So those are the two main mechanisms. The problem is that these medications have a special
2:27.2	warning, black label. They actually increase the risk of cardiovascular mortality by 59 to 68%.
2:36.7	Now wait a second, wait a second.
