A speaker argues that bad fats, not sugar, cause diabetes, and shares their own diet and health metrics to support the claim. The video presents a personal viewpoint on what actually drives the disease.
I don't believe that having high amounts of sugar causes or even is related to diabetes. I think that it's bad fats because bad fats break cell membranes. You can't express insulin receptors through them. So blood glucose builds up, the body makes more insulin. So you have high insulin, muscles become fatty, they can't uptake glucose anymore and you get broken cells. And broken cells are going to cause all sorts of problems that way. And based on those ideas I can have carbs. In fact I have 2 to 400 grams of carbs a day and probably more rice than I do sugar. And I don't eat white sugar but I will have some honey or some fruit or whatever. I'm 6.5% body fat. My visceral fat is at the very low end for an 18 year old and it gets higher as it goes. My liver fat is 0.8%. I'm not on a low carb diet. I don't eat bad fats ever. I haven't for 15 years.
