1:0090% of all chronic disease stems from this one lie, which is taught all over the world in universities to medical doctors, dieticians, nutritionist, personal trainers. Ready for this? Glucose is the body's preferred energy source. That's right folks, sugar, it does the body good. And cut, that was it. If glucose was so essential and so good, why does your body do everything in its capacity to remove the glucose from your blood as fast as possible? From an evolutionary standpoint, we would never have survived if we depended on glucose. Is that true, Mr. Caveman, sir? An average then person has about 100,000 calories of fat on their body. When you consume a lot of sugar, our body takes it out of the blood real fast, and it's not going to burn it all up. What happens to all this excess sugar when your body removes it from the blood? Does it just evaporate? Do you pee it out? Now, it gets converted to fat. It is true that some of our body does require glucose, but it's a very small percentage,

2:03and that can be made by our own body very easily. Why does your body do everything in its capacity to remove the glucose from your blood as fast as possible? Here we are told that we need to consume 50 to 60% of all of our calories being carbohydrates, which turns into glucose. When you get your blood sugar tested and it comes out to be 80, which is normal. Guess how much sugar that is in your blood? It's only a teaspoon. But think about how much sugar a person actually consumes on a daily basis. You're talking about a massive amount of sugar. What is all that doing in your blood? Well, your body is working like crazy to remove it. Think about the pancreas. What it has to do? It has to just literally pump out this sugar. Truth is that sugar was never supposed to be the primary fuel. It's an emergency fuel. If our bodies were designed to live on sugar, then why do we only store 1,700 calories of sugar? That's about the number of calories you consume in one day. The single biggest root cause of 90% of chronic disease is high glucose.

3:06It's the blood sugar spikes. It acts like shredded glass on the inside of the arteries, creating all sorts of inflammation. Anything over four grams of sugar, that's one teaspoon of sugar, that's like one fifth of a piece of bread, starts to create a problem in the arteries where your body has to start removing the excess. But just think about the average person. How much sugar they put into their bloodstream, insulin has to be jacked up and produced to remove it. What happens internally is you have this high level of insulin. It just keeps removing this sugar over and over and over to the point where the body has to then compensate by producing something called insulin resistance. It slows down the sugar that goes inside the cells to prevent the cells from having glucose toxicity. Insulin resistance is your body saying to you, I've had enough. Stop giving me sugar. Here are some common symptoms. Frequent urination at night, brain fog, loss of memory, belly fat, visual problems, mood issues, anxiety, depression.

4:06The inability to go from one meal to the next without the needing of a snack, excessive hunger, cravings for carbs, heart palpitations, fluid issues in your ankles or your feet, sleep, apnea. Those are just some of the initial symptoms. If we give it 15 years, then you get diabetes. Give it 25 years. We create this caramelization of your brain. It's called dementia.

Out of all the things that damages the small little arteries to your eyes, your kidney, the nervous system, and especially the inside of the arteries, it's glucose. Why are people worried about consuming glucose? Because of this one simple lie that we're told everywhere, that glucose is the preferred energy source. But we don't do that, right? But of course in the food pyramid, you'll see 65% of the calories should be carbohydrate. Spring is here and the shopping list is long. Time to make a lows run. Buy three bags, get three free.
