 First question is from ninja master 166. This guy's cool. I want to Justin's friends. Yeah, my guy I have heard some people say that it is bad to combine fats and carbs together because it can lead to insulin resistance and More fat gain. Is there any truth to this or is it better to just focus on eating healthy foods? So this is the opposite is true. Actually, this can be very very true So if what you're eating is too many calories, don't combine fats proteins You don't have anything at all. It's really too much of that. So you know what's funny about this is I've heard people say this Yeah, that you know don't combine this and that and the other the only long-term health practices that that really communicate This are Ayurvedic medicine Sometimes they'll communicate not combining certain foods Chinese medicine will do the same thing now. They don't say fat gain or insulin resistance They use their terminology, which you know, there's I forgot what they use an Ayurvedic medicine I can't remember the names of them. There's like different forms of energy. I can't remember what they are You know Chinese medicine. They'll talk about yin and yang in the body So I'm sure there's some truth to combinations in regards to energy Levels and digestion in particular, but this is a very individual thing This is not a general statement that those those you know those forms of medicines tend to make well The is it more like hot cold like, you know in terms of spices and like whatever. Yeah, I don't want to represent them But I have heard them say, you know, they'll and I know this because I've worked with them not personally But I've worked with them with clients where a client will seek out alternative medicine Then they'll come to me and say oh my practitioner said to not eat You know these foods are combined these foods and you know, these are these are long traditions So I'm sure there's some truth to what they're saying, but not this this this I don't I don't necessarily see well Not only that but this is the opposite It's the opposite of this is true it you if you combine a carbohydrate with a fat You actually lower the glycemic index on the on the carbohydrate. Yeah, that's true. So it's sugar less. Yes It's like sugar less. So the opposite is true eating carbohydrate all by itself will actually will spike your blood sugar level Faster than if you actually pair it with a fat or a protein Yeah, so that's like and I remember playing with this like when we when I was trying to like Time like a pump or time like the way I looked on stage You know, if I just had like a carb by itself I would fill up really quick, but then I would flatten back out really really quick also and by me actually eating it or parent I told you guys like I think I pieced together like the chicken the avocado Was like this and if I pulled the avocado out of it as crazy as me it changed the way I would look your muscle Would look less full. Yeah, they would they wouldn't it what they would do is it would it would they would get filled Up, but then they would deflate really quick interesting where when I would add a fat into the meal It would actually fill up slower, but they would maintain that for a little bit longer and then come back down So I it made it easier for me to time a look on stage now that for me That's what that's right It has nothing to do with me gaining body fat or not like but that's we I would manipulate Adding fats with carbohydrates to slow down the digestive process So it would fill fill me in at a slower rate instead of really fast and then leave really fast Yeah, on the list of priorities. This is putting hairs. Yeah, this is like somewhere near number 2000 I would say I wouldn't worry too much about this. You know, we should pay a 977 You should pay attention to combining foods and your digestion now I've heard this from people where they'll say if I combine these kinds of foods I start to get digestive issues. You should pay attention to that, but that's very individual That's typically nothing general that you can apply that's more like you combining two foods that you might be Slightly intolerant to right and now you've got a bigger and figure out which one it was and yeah do your homework So I so I noticed this with like if I go have like a cheeseburger I noticed that the combination of the cheese and the gluten together is like the perfect storm for me to be Beloted and digestive issues afterwards if I get rid of the bun and I have just like a like a burger and cheese I'm okay. If I just have a hamburger. I'm less as I'm not as bad So it's the combination of me doing the gluten and the dairy in one meal That just hammer and then you throw in some fries to a bunch of carbs and extra calories It's just like the perfect storm for me to feel absolutely bloated and terrible afterwards. So that but that's individual That's me, right? I know that my body is affected that way by those foods And my body seems to handle them by themselves in smaller doses. I had it, you know last night I was had a boat by the way, I had the new bowl of peanut butter magic spoon I know it's not a commercial today But by the way, that was phenomenal and I had it with I had it with whole milk And I normally don't do that, but just whole milk by itself doesn't really bother me that much But if I have you know whole milk and then I also have cheese later on and then I have ice cream or something It's like then it's just too much. So I were blasting this earlier and before the podcast You're doing some trumpet just trumpet music. Don't do that Katrina still doesn't think I hear that you Katrina he farts all the time I think he saves it for us because he won't start video again There's two main things you could do to fight or to prevent insulin resistance The two biggest things you can do are not overeat and then here's the second one build muscle Muscle is incredibly protective in this particular case because muscle helps soak up and absorb glycogen It helps control blood sugar. People with more muscle are far less likely to have insulin resistance than people with less muscle So those two things are the things you should focus on and not really food combinations
