hi guys I’m back in this video we’re going to talk about why diabetes is becoming so prevalent so popular nowadays I found some interesting information I want to share with you the American Diabetes Association 1970 were recommending 45% of the total calories carbohydrates okay 20% protein 35% fat then in 1986 it increased to 60 percent of the total calories carbohydrates okay so remember 45 to 60 and it’s interesting because in the 70s you didn’t see the obesity that you see right after you know the 80s and the 90s so here we have this recommendation of more carbohydrates then in 1994 they still kept the 60% but the they were more flexible with their plan and they allowed more added sugar and sucrose to be a part of these calories right here okay big problem because as you know the carbs are going to spike insulin so then the medical association really gets their information about diabetes from the experts here so it filters down through the medical industry and it’s really you cannot fix diabetes with this many carbohydrates it’s impossible so what they have to do is they have to manage diabetes okay so that’s all about balancing their food with the medication and making sure that the complications of diabetes which is hypoglycemia doesn’t occur because that’s dangerous so you have to keep feeding them to keep the sugar up so it’s all about keeping that sugar medication balanced okay then we have to balance the lipids which is coming from the high levels of insulin with medication good thing we have medication for that that we can have medication for the high blood pressure another complication of diabetes we can balance that with meds and then as far as your weight goes it’s all about energy balance of eating less and exercising more so we just get people on the treadmill burning off those calories keep trying to get a meat less and see we eat where it gets us and it’s just going to keep getting worse so we have this group that is giving us bad information unhealthy information making us unhealthy and then we have this organization right here which is just really focusing on managing diabetes so now I put a little link down below which is a little mini course on what is insulin resistance okay share it with your friends your family the people that you care about let’s get the word out and really spread this information hey thank you so much for watching keep spreading the word and share this video
