I'd like to discuss some surprising or shocking reasons for having high blood glucose

0:07.4

despite normal levels. So in other words some people have high blood

0:11.6

sugars and it's not actually dangerous.

0:15.0

Okay, so I want to really cover this topic because this is very, very important.

0:18.8

And this video is based in another video that Dr. Ken Berry did on blood glucose and Dr. Ken Berry is one of the

0:26.5

you know top influencers in the area of keto slash carnivore diets but he made a big point about this one thing, having blood glucose levels being

0:37.2

pathogenic versus just physiological. So if your blood sugars are high yet yet it's derived from more of a pathogenic reason,

0:46.4

eating refined sugars and carbs, that's one thing.

0:49.7

But if the high blood glucose is coming from another reason, it could just be part of the normal

1:15.2

And very simply, when you have high levels of A1C,

1:18.2

you're getting what's called glycation.

1:20.5

And glycation is the damage from what the sugar does to your proteins.

1:24.8

It's going to make those proteins unusable and that's going to create a lot of problems

1:29.4

in your eyes, in your brain, in your kidneys, in your nervous system, as well as in all of your

1:38.1

arteries. So if you find your blood sugar levels going higher, definitely watch this video because it's going to explain a lot.

Now when we're talking about blood glucose levels, okay?

Apparently normal is less than a hundred milligrams per desulator.
