- The body DOES NOT use all of the protein consumed. A large portion of this is excreted as from the urinary tract.
- Insulin resistance is partially due to blockage of sugar into the cells causing buildup in the blood stream during glycolysis stage II.
- Fat is the secondary source used by cells for energy, while I agree that refined carbohydrate foods are harmful for their lack of dietary soluble fiber, most unrefined carbohydrate foods such as fruits have a LOW to MEDIUM glycemic load.
A diet rich in saturated fats is one of the several factorsthat may contribute to the cardiovascular desease known as atherosclerosis. In this condition, deposits called plaques develop withing the walls of blood vessels, causing inward bulges that impede blood flow and reduce the resilience of the vessels. Foods that are rich in these saturated fats are butter, lard, whole milk.
All of these examples (butter, whole milk) contain an excess omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, excessive amounts of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and a very high omega-6/omega-3 ratio, as is found in today's Western diets, promote the pathogenesis of many diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, whereas increased levels of omega-3 PUFA (a low omega-6/omega-3 ratio) exert suppressive effects. Pharmacother. 2002 Oct; 56(8): 365-79
As a final word for any Type II diabetic, try to consume a diet that has a percentage ratio of fat and protein LOWER than 10% for three days (cronometer com is an excellent source), while completely avoiding any refined/processed foods and consuming a high fiber diet of majority of fruits, vegetables, and gluten-free grains. Measure blood glucose level after a carbohydrate meal of medium glycemic food for a few hours and there should be a MASSIVE improvement. Neil Barnard's work on this topic.
- "A quarter pound of beef raises insulin levels in diabetics as much as a quarter pound of straight sugar" (Diabetes care 7 (1984):465)
- World Health Organization recommends a minimum of 5% protein in daily recommended allowance of calories.
- The typical American diet is NOT high in carbohydrates; 15% protein, 40% fat, 45% carbs on average....
