[Post 3/3] The crux of carb-aware eating💥 . Th

[Post 2/3] The carb danger zone ⚠️⁠
.⁠
🔥 Problems develop when we eat excess refined carbohydrates.⁠
.⁠
At no time in history have we been able to obtain an infinite amount of refined carbs and sugars 24/7, until now.🤯⁠
.⁠
🚩 This constant bombardment of simple sugars like glucose and fructose into your bloodstream demands that your pancreas continually pump out insulin to escort the sugars into your cells for use as energy.⁠
.⁠
Your cells have insulin receptor sites that allow insulin to plug in and let the sugar inside. But when you have too much insulin (hyperinsulinemia), your receptor sites become resistant. This is just a fact of human physiology.⁠
.⁠
Most of us cannot consume excessive refined carbs without eventually suffering the consequence of insulin resistance.⁠
.⁠
🤯 2/3 of Americans are on the insulin resistant spectrum. This leads to:⁠
🚩 Inflammation⁠
🚩 Pre-diabetes / metabolic syndrome⁠
🚩 Type II diabetes⁠
🚩 High triglycerides, cholesterol, and blood pressure⁠
🚩 Weight gain⁠
🚩 Hypoglycemia⁠
🚩 Hormone imbalances⁠
🚩 Polycystic ovarian syndrome⁠
🚩 Energy swings and crashes⁠
🚩 Depression, anxiety, and moodiness⁠
🚩 Brain fog, cognitive decline, and dementia⁠
🚩 Gut bacteria and yeast overgrowth⁠
.⁠
.⁠
.⁠
Most of these can be prevented, and possibly reversed, with Carb-Appropriate Eating alone. (More on this in my next post)⁠
.⁠
.⁠
I’m curious to know -- do you feel a difference in your body if you eat refined carbs or sugar?⁠
