0:00.0 | Warning, this video may cause you to never want to eat sugar ever again, so you might want to pause this video and get your last dose before I reveal some very interesting information. |
0:14.0 | And of course, the more aware you are of what sugar does, the less you're going to consume it. I watch people all the time around me just consuming massive amounts of sugar and I'm like, oh my gosh. |
0:27.0 | How could you possibly do that? Well, it has to do with awareness. They just don't know the effects. Now we probably all know the effects with weight gain and dental decay and a fatty liver and high cholesterol and acne and I blood pressure increase Candida infections and lower immune system, etc. |
0:46.0 | But there's some other things that I want to share with you deep inside your body that you need to know about and it all relates to most diseases are metabolic diseases. What does that mean metabolic diseases? |
1:00.0 | It has to do with your metabolism and when we're talking about metabolism, we're specifically talking about this one structure in ourselves called the mitochondria. |
1:13.0 | The mitochondrial dysfunction is responsible for the majority of non-infectious diseases. |
1:22.0 | Disfunctional mitochondria are what's behind cardiovascular disease, cancer. In fact, the cancer you have normal cells that turn into cancer cells because of damaged mitochondria. |
1:36.0 | It's impossible to get cancer unless you have damage to the mitochondria. All simers, which is type three diabetes, kidney liver disease. |
1:46.0 | All of these general metabolic diseases, if you look closely at what's happening as a common thread, deep inside the cell, we have dysfunctional mitochondria. |
1:56.0 | There are a lot of things that destroy the mitochondria, but at the top of the list is sugar and foods that turn into sugar very quickly, like refined carbohydrates, like starches, |
2:10.0 | breads, pasta cereal crackers, biscuits, waffles, pancakes, muffins, things like that. And when we talk about sugar, the majority sugar in the US is beet sugar. |
2:21.0 | And the majority of beets grown in the US are GMO. So we not only have this refined sugar, we have this GMO type sugar, which has traces of glyphosate, which is an herbicide, which I'm not going to even go there, but I just want to make you aware of that. |
2:37.0 | Also, the amount of fructose that we consume from drinks, sodas, high fructose corn syrup, is a lot different than glucose. |
2:47.0 | Okay, so we have fructose, which is only metabolized by your liver. All the other cells in the body can't metabolize this fructose. So when you're consuming large amounts of fructose, you are overwhelming the liver and overwhelming the mitochondria deep inside the liver. |
3:03.0 | And so if we compare fructose with glucose, glucose is actually much better than fructose, but you have to realize even table sugar is half glucose and half fructose honey, the same thing. |
3:14.0 | And when we consume this refined sugar, it's very, very unnatural because we don't have the normal antioxidants that come from like the natural sugar that with sugar cane or even that come with fruit when you consume fruits, which is high in fructose. |
3:31.0 | So how does that relate to the mitochondria? |
3:34.0 | Well, this is what happens when you consume a lot of sugar glucose or things that turn into sugar, what happens to the mitochondria is becomes damaged. |
3:44.0 | Okay, now the purpose of the mitochondria is to turn fuel into energy with the help of oxygen. |
3:53.0 | And so now with a dysfunctional mitochondria, we now create a hypoxic low level oxygen state. |
4:02.0 | And from that starts to be created other oxygen molecules that are very reactive to our bodies without getting too technical the category of these things are called Ross and I don't want to get into complexities, but just realize that when you have a mitochondria that is not able to use the oxygen. |
4:20.0 | You start developing a lot of oxidative free radicals and a lot of things that create more damage. |
