So I get that glucose metabolism is the preferred fuel for the body. But, what if we're already metabolically compromised and insulin resistant? In order to increase our insulin sensitivity, don't we need to first balance our blood sugar by avoiding sugar for a short period and then resume sugar intake in a health way? But wouldn't that increase inflammation in the short term. It would also force us to use fat in the short term, but don't PUFA's cause insulin release too? So confused...
Most people are metabolically compromised. I don't care what they look like, how much they workout, etc...most people are in that state. Yes we first and foremost need to reg blood sugar, which to make a long story short, in time will reduce inflammation at the cell level.
to continue.....By avoiding "sugar" as you say will actually cause blood sugar dysregulation. When you say "sugar" what are you referring to as there are many kinds of sugar. I would say starches (glucose) containing foods like breads, etc will yes make things worse. PUFA's actually damage the cells of the pancrease, stimulate cortisol, are antithyroid, block sugar from getting in the cell, inc insulin resistance, etc, etc.
To continue....so avoiding pufas is a great way to regulate blood sugar. Eating the right balance of carbs, protein and fats with every meal will help you over time to regulate blood sugar. Eating smaller meals more freq initially will help compensate for the state you are in. As well, coconut oil helps to detox from pufas, heal the cells of the pancreas, teach the liver to store glycogen, etc.
@joshrubineastwest Thanks for the great response and info. Its appreciated. So, getting carbs from fructose will aid in increasing my insulin sensitivity? Or should I also avoid that in the short term? I guess what I'm asking is what types of carbs will help me to eliminate insulin resistance (taking into account small meals, healthy fats, etc.). I mean, sucrose contains glucose, so is the key having the fructose there for balance?
There is so much more to it than I can put on youtube unfort. But eating the right type of protein and amounts, same with fats and mostly tropical fruits and squashes, eating smaller meals more often, etc and using temp and pulse to see if what you are doing is working.
Where can I learn more about measuring temp? ie. whats the best method and whats considered low high and optimal?
