Looks like an old study (2004), so I wouldn't expect it to get any more exposure in modern day. Also it is epidemiology, though the incident rate / "relative risk" differences are quite large. This is hardly the only study to show this relationship though.

Your blood sugar is supposed to go up after a meal. That's what prompts your body to produce more insulin. It's a normal, biological process. Diabetes is a complex, multifactorial condition that requires individual attention to treat. Half of it is genetic. You can't just look at blood glucose numbers of a stranger on a page and say, "Aha! This person probably eats a lot of junk food and doesn't exercise!". There are people who need the boost from medications (though not ones that lower post prandial glucose). Some of the things this man talked about were silly, as well: like the long fasting glucose of 80 comment. The normal range goes up to 100, overnight. Two tests over 126 is diabetic. Mine was over 100. I get ten hours a week of exercise. I cook from scratch 95% of the time. Not a day goes by, when I don't do at least half an hour of cardio. I'm so skinny that my ribs show.
I feel no need to eat carbs. I get no enjoyment from it. I am in the slow part of ketosis weight loss. Just loss 6 lbs in the past week after gaining 10 lbs.
I gave up working with my doctor after I had lost 20lbs, had great blood pressure, incredible good cholesterol, super low triglycerides but genetically high ldl, and super high testosterone, visited a second doctor and she said the high testosterone was good, but she was only “allowed” to tell me ldl cholesterol is bad.
I have been using a CGM for the past 9 days. I was told last October that i was pre-diabetic with an HbA1c score of 6.3. My diet has been inconsistent and still a bit reckless at times since then. When i first applied the CGM my average glucose level was 5.8. I immediately went Keto/Carnivore and within the first week my average glucose fell to 5.1 and many point dropped to mid 4's (this is uk and measured in mmol/L). Also with a nice steady flow to the curve and no high spikes. It did spike to 7.5 during HiiT exercise of 25 mins. This past week i decided to let loose on my diet and have had alcohol, pasta, pastries, white coffee with sugar....you name it i eat it. My monitor went crazy. Constant spikes like a mountain range, and hitting over 10 mmo/L. Morning level of 6.6 mmol/L on average and a daily average of 6.0 mmol/L. So a jump of over 1 full point in under a week. This would quite obviously just get higher and higher over time. I am 50 years old. So, as of today, it is back to Keto/carnivore with no processed foods. My goal is to drive that average glucose level down to the low 5's and preferably even the high 4's and keep i there. My execise regimen is 3 x per week resistence training using the Body for Life programme which also includes 3 x per week 25 min HiiT cardio, workouts. I gave up running 8 weeks ago due to constant injury and fatigue issues. This past 2 weeks doing Body For Life has made me feel so much better already. Just going to get the diet sorted now. All the best everyone. Edit - mmol/L to mg/dL conversion. 5.0 = 90 5.6 = 100 6.1 = 110 6.7 = 120 7.2 = 130 10 = 180
On carnivore 3 years. My Blood glucose is very steady and I do not see many spikes 20 over mean average. Maybe 1 or 2 a month. Ketones, now that is another story!
It makes sense considering the toxicity of glucose and fructose to the cells and the level of inflammation they can cause. The body is oxidizing glucose as fast as it can to limit cell damage. Constant spikes would seem to be very damaging especially over decades
@@k14michael it's not the primary fuel source. The body can create glucose in the amount that it needs, and the amount that is metabolically appropriate on demand via gluconeogenesis. There is zero need for exogenous carbohydrates in the human body. Glucose in higher than metabolically appropriate levels causes glycation, fructose is 7 to 10 times more glycating than glucose. The body is trying to oxidize the glucose as fast as it can because it's glycating. Just go look up the Randle Cycle. The cells are trying to protect themselves from the damage caused by the glucose.
Everything that guy sad is wrong. Glucose IS the primary fuel source for most cells in our bodies. The reason our body can create glucose is because it is essential for life. Exogenous carbs are vital for insulin sensitivity and optimal health. The Randle cycle is a fine tuning mechanism and it actually spares glucose and tries to get rid of fat instead. And beta (fat) oxidation is more damaging than glucose oxidation.
I can't take it anymore....I have 3 stents, I'm 64 had my first stent at 49 then 58, then 61...Yes I'm pre-diabetic...I stopped taking my statin a few years ago beacuse I didn't believe cholesterol caused CVD. My LDL went up to 144 and my cardiologist freaked out. I've seent other professors of cardilogy recently stating if you have CVD you want your LDL under 60...Who the hell are we suppose to believe anymore?
@@melissasmess2773 that means you are believing a bunch of youtubers and influencers, who are ALL motivated by views, money and narcissism/ego/attention seeking.... Hmm..
Was wondering about this, as I spiked heavily this weekend, am sure! I broke my usual dietary restrictions of no sugar-dairy-wheat. Splurged, ate tons of pizza and made fresh lemonade. These episodes are only occasional, but I was wondering if the sudden surge of massive carbs-sugar, and inflammatory foods, aren’t spiking my insulin to an extreme degee. How even rare and occasional episodes might be damaging, especially as a person gets older…
Thank you for providing this extremely important evaluation of this health issue. Many do not consider the detriment to health from sugar and its derivatives. Excellent recommendations regarding tracking our own glucose levels and exercise after meals. I find this information extremely helpful.
On a previous videos Mike showed that the oldest people have the highest cholesterol. Glucose measurements go all over the place depending on when they are taken in relation to sleep and eating. Would be good to relate today’s data to A1C testing and insulin testing as was done for years by Dr. Joseph Kraft, who showed in his tests and as he stated, “heart disease is almost all type 2 diabetes undiagnosed."
I love your content topics and contributions in general. I feel this is somewhat intuitive but my diet change initially meant going against all of my previous inclinations! Thank you for the great info and insights you provide to us on a regular basis!
Glucose Revolution by Jessie Inchauspe! Read the book, incredible insight! Our concern needs to be the (frequency and intensity) of our spikes. Sweets need to be (rare but special), -they're for the MIND- and no eating within 4 hour intervals.
When it comes to diet I've noticed that people who significantly lower their protein intake such as red meat poultry fish eggs or dairy people tend to replace it with processed foods so they'll eat some pasta some bread sandwiches or exclusively fruits and vegetables peanut butter tofu soybean all sorts of things but when they talk about how they feel overtime it doesn't seem to be working for them and I've never seen anyone who's been dealing with obesity and dealing with getting rid of stubborn weight be able to eat like that and lose weight without the assistance of injecting insulin and I have allergies to a lot of things like eggs nuts beans legumes and a doctor said to me why don't you just eat soy I would never do that because that would be a great way especially with allergies and limitations to end up nutrient deficient and suffering a great deal eating meat at every main meal of some sort no matter what your choice is is a great idea for overall diet and then your sides can be a variety of different things and I think eating a pretty stripped-down diet which isn't boring people are deterred by it because they feel like it's boring it certainly isn't if you have some variety and people that I see around me in my life that are struggling they aren't able to eliminate the bad foods because they view them as good which is very difficult and so instead of adopting a healthy well-rounded whole foods diet eliminating processed food products people opt for medications and Insulin injections to do it for them which is not going to lead to better health outcomes in the long run
Carbs with protein or fiber lowers, cinnamon in coffee or tea in morning lowers. Alluose lowers blood spikes, vinegar with acetic acid lowers. Eating carbs last lowers. Walking after lowers, so many strategies to lower blood sugar. I look at blood sugar spikes as the body is freaking to get this possibly dangerous substance “sugar” to get first absorbed by muscle, then into other areas so it’s not damaging tissue. Blood spikes are also related to signals for the bodies time to eat in the morning and to signal needing energy as it’s being used at a high rate.
@@k14michael have a blood spike in the morning. So if you get savory breakfast like fatty and protein rich, you’ll be satisfied. Typically when the sun starts shining as our clock starts enabling the blood spike. It’s part of our circadian rhythm.
@@nerychristian carbs have abilities we shouldn’t dismiss. The carb without sugar are that of Vegetables. Carbs also very helpful to preload before a workout for sustained energy. We don’t need much per day. Hence why people do well with Keto as they limit carbs usually. It’s all about timing, type of carb and limiting.
J shaped chart....exactly the opposite of what the doctor tells my dad from his medical history. Of course he doesn't believe them thanks to your information, Mike.
If you can find a study on walking I'd love to hear about it. I hypothesize that walking is correlated with overall health and longevity. I think prioritizing walking would help all other bad habits to drop off with less mental stress.
Consider the vascular epithelial glycocalyx for a mechanism. It acts as our shields, and it is responsible for sensing blood flow and stimulating the release of nitrous oxide. That, of course, dilatates our blood vessels. Why would we let our shields down? Flight or Fight response? High blood glucose spikes (among other things) wipes out the glycocalyx. It takes hours for the glycocalyx to recover. Blood pressure may go up. Continuously elevated blood sugar (as in many small meals & drinks - even everything in moderation) keeps it from recovering - allowing more exposure to toxic, inflammatory, or oxidized products into and past the epithelial layer. Then, the inflammatory cascade. Thanks for the video 🖖
@@k14michael It certainly is not taught in medical textbooks. @MicrovascularHealthSolutions has a YT channel and published research. *Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology:* _The Endothelial Glycocalyx as a Double-Edged Sword in Microvascular Homeostasis and Pathogenesis_ *sciencedirect:* _Extracellular matrix-dependent mechanosensing and mechanotransduction_ *Critical Care Forum:* _The glycocalyx: a novel diagnostic and therapeutic target in sepsis_
the 2 hour mark you mentioned is not the problem glucose number, but rather the area under the curve, which is much higher from carbohydrates than from protein. 140 is harmless if it got there slowly and steadily from protein and fat, because it got there without a sharp spike.
Hello, i had seen a video made my nutrition made simple, i think it was called cholesterol and risk of death| new evidence or something like dat, im not saying your wrong but in the video he talks about these U or j shape graphs and how theyre very common, i think it might be useful for you to watch as it can maybe help you look at the data in a different way, for example on the low side of thing like low total cholestrol, he mentioned that the low cholesterol isnt the cause of death per say, but the people on the low side is a side effect of other diseases, i think itd be useful to look at as it might help as far as they way you may look at these J or U shaped graphs in the future, cheers, also i dont know if you have gone over curucmin studies that show decrease insulin resistance but if you havent , i wanted to see if you could do a breakdown on curcumin and insulin resistance and the role of inflammation in insulin resistance
Wear a Freestyle sensor even if you’re healthy , you’ll be surprised what rice and bread does to you. I was prediabetic and fixed this issue when I realized I can no longer eat like in my 20’ 😁

Restricted blood flow to the heart doesn't sound like something that promotes high energy levels. Is this in any way related to sleepiness after high carb meals?
I have the opposite problem, my blood sugar couldn't rise. I was stuck in having "peaks" at 105 for months. I had hypoglycemia every night. I was concerned with not developing diabetes for a lot of years (I was never prediabetic, but everyone in my family was). I didn't wat much carbs in general and I thought I ate healthy. I started having hypoglycemias during the night, these qere very difficult to spot because I never had them during the day or anything. I just woke up feeling like garbage for a lot of years without knowing why. I developed some autoimmune diseases and I thought that was the reason. I still woke up feeling like trash. I started wearing a CGM and I figured I had nocturnal hypoglycemia. I started experimenting with eating before going to bed (I did a lot of intermittent fasting for years, so I wasn't used to eat right before bed)... I started getting better when I ate carbs. I have been eating a lot more carbs and gained 3 kg of fat during the past 2 weeks and I feel a lot better. I sometimes think I was starved, but I didn't know😂
In terms of that LDL study - you should caveat your statement with the fact the authors excluded anyone with established ASCVD. Here's an extract: We excluded participants who were previously diagnosed with ASCVD, including those with peripheral artery disease, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke, and transient ischemic attack (n = 878,524)
Also, had to have cataract surgery at the age of 57. Nurses keep asking me if I’m diabetic. I think I am, but my doctors say I am not. Have diabetes on both sides of my family.
Can you clarify, is it when your sugar spikes above let’s say 100 or when its stays above let’s say 100 many hours after the meal is bad? Because mine does spike above 100 but it’s pulled down less than an hours later below 100 So is this good or bad? Thanks
I'm frustrated with my MD, he is about health optimization and longevity, but doesn't think that berberine or metformin is that helpful at reducing risk. Ironically, my labs this year without berberine had a higher a1c and higher ldl. He wants me to keep with diet and exercise rather than adding berberine back into my supplements. I am adding it back this week because I read that berberine helps reduce ldl.
I'd like to see graphing of this type of data include more than just the 2-D axes: they should include a vector-space diagram, including weight, age, comorbidities etc. I think that would help interpret the data with much better understanding.
I agree with your comment. My thought is would it be different because since you are in the act of exercise, that the glucose does not sit in the body's system but is used quickly. Making a healthier situation.
@jimgillert20 I was just typing out a similar comment and accidentally erased it. That's my thought, too. Endogenous glucose spikes are useful and released out of necessity. If it occurs as a result of the intensity of exercise, during the exercise, it's also being utilized immediately...which is what matters in the end.
Yes, there’s a difference between when a body hasta get rid of it asap by insulin spike and when hasta produce it for an immediate need. Our body is just outstanding, smart and efficient when we let it do it its job. 😊

If you are going to eat the carbs anyway, eat them just before the workout. That way as they convert to glucose your muscles will use them or store them to replace what is getting used.
Bodybuilding, natural or enhanced do this, they have simple sugar after a workout to promote muscle growth before a protein shake, plus Fibre slows the spike down. I like this channel but this needs clarification, maybe for the average slob its bad. Bodybuilders also do it before going on stage or modeling so the muscles are more full, and muscles prevent dementia this channel said a few days ago so it needs clarification I think

"Ample research shows": one cherry picked study doesn't equal evidence, to me. Lots of links to questionable supplements, though. See a recent video from Gil Carvalho, called "Do Insulin Spikes cause weight gain and diabetes?". He says that the people who had big insulin spikes, had better post prandial glucose levels, and better fasting glucose levels. Nicola Guess said earlier that post prandial, big blood sugar spikes are a good thing because then you get a big insulin spike to bring it down. She said that your beta cells get tired and stop responding to the signals if you eat often (which people like myself until recently might have been inclined to do, thinking that a number of snacks throughout the day would be the best way to stabilize their blood sugar). She also says weight loss and exercise slaughter all else. Excessive visceral fat increases insulin resistance. I do use berberine, and it's not exactly a sure solution to bring your blood sugar down. I see lots of overweight people at the gym. The lessons to me, are, obesity has a large genetic component, and that it's possible to exercise frequently and still be overweight.
WRONG! It is almost ENTIRELY diet and nutrition caused. Here's the deal, I lost over 100lbs by changing my DIET & taking supplements. Now I'm gaining weight again because I'm on steroids for asbestosis & COPD. So you're telling me (man that lost >100lb) that some quack that hasn't lost a significant amount of weight AND makes money off telling you what to do knows more? (Which is worth more, school or experience?)) Grow up or just go away, if you can't figure that out. Doctors are in BUSINESS to MAKE MONEY! Not to help you, me, or even their own mothers.

Love your content... I am senior 62 yo from Indonesia trying to improve my insulin sensitivity... Your content is really useful for me....
It makes sense considering the toxicity of glucose and fructose to the cells and the level of inflammation they can cause.
The body is oxidizing glucose as fast as it can to limit cell damage. Constant spikes would seem to be very damaging especially over decades
If sugar is so dangerous then why is it the primary fuel source for every cells in your body?
Your brain also use 20-25% of the resting blood glucose.
@@k14michael it's not the primary fuel source. The body can create glucose in the amount that it needs, and the amount that is metabolically appropriate on demand via gluconeogenesis.
There is zero need for exogenous carbohydrates in the human body.
Glucose in higher than metabolically appropriate levels causes glycation, fructose is 7 to 10 times more glycating than glucose.
The body is trying to oxidize the glucose as fast as it can because it's glycating.
Just go look up the Randle Cycle. The cells are trying to protect themselves from the damage caused by the glucose.
@@CoryHobbs2178
What book, podcasts, or TH-cam videos that you recommend to learn more about this?
Everything that guy sad is wrong.
Glucose IS the primary fuel source for most cells in our bodies.
The reason our body can create glucose is because it is essential for life.
Exogenous carbs are vital for insulin sensitivity and optimal health.
The Randle cycle is a fine tuning mechanism and it actually spares glucose and tries to get rid of fat instead.
And beta (fat) oxidation is more damaging than glucose oxidation.
I can't take it anymore....I have 3 stents, I'm 64 had my first stent at 49 then 58, then 61...Yes I'm pre-diabetic...I stopped taking my statin a few years ago beacuse I didn't believe cholesterol caused CVD. My LDL went up to 144 and my cardiologist freaked out.

Diabetes and insulin resistance is a gateway to heart disease, cancer, and other diseases.
That’s a very odd name there kid poker
Was wondering about this, as I spiked heavily this weekend, am sure! I broke my usual dietary restrictions of no sugar-dairy-wheat. Splurged, ate tons of pizza and made fresh lemonade. These episodes are only occasional, but I was wondering if the sudden surge of massive carbs-sugar, and inflammatory foods, aren’t spiking my insulin to an extreme degee. How even rare and occasional episodes might be damaging, especially as a person gets older…
Thank you for providing this extremely important evaluation of this health issue. Many do not consider the detriment to health from sugar and its derivatives. Excellent recommendations regarding tracking our own glucose levels and exercise after meals. I find this information extremely helpful.
On a previous videos Mike showed that the oldest people have the highest cholesterol. Glucose measurements go all over the place depending on when they are taken in relation to sleep and eating. Would be good to relate today’s data to A1C testing and insulin testing as was done for years by Dr. Joseph Kraft, who showed in his tests and as he stated, “heart disease is almost all type 2 diabetes undiagnosed."
Eh no, that's another misleading conclusion. Look up survivorship bias
Also causation.
Keep it up! We appreciate what you are doing
After I ate a double order of Vietnamese noodles, I thought I was going to die. My blood sugar was so high I thought it was the end.
I love your content topics and contributions in general. I feel this is somewhat intuitive but my diet change initially meant going against all of my previous inclinations! Thank you for the great info and insights you provide to us on a regular basis!
Thank you! I learn so much from you. ❤ from Olympia, WA.
Glucose Revolution by Jessie Inchauspe! Read the book, incredible insight! Our concern needs to be the (frequency and intensity) of our spikes. Sweets need to be (rare but special), -they're for the MIND- and no eating within 4 hour intervals.
Thank you
When it comes to diet I've noticed that people who significantly lower their protein intake such as red meat poultry fish eggs or dairy people tend to replace it with processed foods so they'll eat some pasta some bread sandwiches or exclusively fruits and vegetables peanut butter tofu soybean all sorts of things but when they talk about how they feel overtime it doesn't seem to be working for them and I've never seen anyone who's been dealing with obesity and dealing with getting rid of stubborn weight be able to eat like that and lose weight without the assistance of injecting insulin and I have allergies to a lot of things like eggs nuts beans legumes and a doctor said to me why don't you just eat soy I would never do that because that would be a great way especially with allergies and limitations to end up nutrient deficient and suffering a great deal eating meat at every main meal of some sort no matter what your choice is is a great idea for overall diet and then your sides can be a variety of different things and I think eating a pretty stripped-down diet which isn't boring people are deterred by it because they feel like it's boring it certainly isn't if you have some variety and people that I see around me in my life that are struggling they aren't able to eliminate the bad foods because they view them as good which is very difficult and so instead of adopting a healthy well-rounded whole foods diet eliminating processed food products people opt for medications and Insulin injections to do it for them which is not going to lead to better health outcomes in the long run
I often pace around whilst watching your videos.
Carbs with protein or fiber lowers, cinnamon in coffee or tea in morning lowers. Alluose lowers blood spikes, vinegar with acetic acid lowers. Eating carbs last lowers. Walking after lowers, so many strategies to lower blood sugar. I look at blood sugar spikes as the body is freaking to get this possibly dangerous substance “sugar” to get first absorbed by muscle, then into other areas so it’s not damaging tissue. Blood spikes are also related to signals for the bodies time to eat in the morning and to signal needing energy as it’s being used at a high rate.
When should you eat cinnamon before your meal?
Why eat carbs at all?
@@k14michael have a blood spike in the morning. So if you get savory breakfast like fatty and protein rich, you’ll be satisfied. Typically when the sun starts shining as our clock starts enabling the blood spike. It’s part of our circadian rhythm.
@@nerychristian carbs have abilities we shouldn’t dismiss. The carb without sugar are that of Vegetables. Carbs also very helpful to preload before a workout for sustained energy. We don’t need much per day. Hence why people do well with Keto as they limit carbs usually. It’s all about timing, type of carb and limiting.
J shaped chart....exactly the opposite of what the doctor tells my dad from his medical history. Of course he doesn't believe them thanks to your information, Mike.
Exactly! Spot on, Mike! Cheers 👍🏻
If you can find a study on walking I'd love to hear about it.
I hypothesize that walking is correlated with overall health and longevity.
I think prioritizing walking would help all other bad habits to drop off with less mental stress.
Consider the vascular epithelial glycocalyx for a mechanism.
It acts as our shields, and it is responsible for sensing blood flow and stimulating the release of nitrous oxide. That, of course, dilatates our blood vessels. Why would we let our shields down? Flight or Fight response?
High blood glucose spikes (among other things) wipes out the glycocalyx. It takes hours for the glycocalyx to recover. Blood pressure may go up. Continuously elevated blood sugar (as in many small meals & drinks - even everything in moderation) keeps it from recovering - allowing more exposure to toxic, inflammatory, or oxidized products into and past the epithelial layer.
Then, the inflammatory cascade.
Thanks for the video

the 2 hour mark you mentioned is not the problem glucose number, but rather the area under the curve, which is much higher from carbohydrates than from protein. 140 is harmless if it got there slowly and steadily from protein and fat, because it got there without a sharp spike.
Hello, i had seen a video made my nutrition made simple, i think it was called cholesterol and risk of death| new evidence or something like dat, im not saying your wrong but in the video he talks about these U or j shape graphs and how theyre very common, i think it might be useful for you to watch as it can maybe help you look at the data in a different way, for example on the low side of thing like low total cholestrol, he mentioned that the low cholesterol isnt the cause of death per say, but the people on the low side is a side effect of other diseases, i think itd be useful to look at as it might help as far as they way you may look at these J or U shaped graphs in the future, cheers, also i dont know if you have gone over curucmin studies that show decrease insulin resistance but if you havent , i wanted to see if you could do a breakdown on curcumin and insulin resistance and the role of inflammation in insulin resistance

What about cortisol's affect on fasting blood sugar? My glucose is higher first thing in the morning but goes down a couple hours after I wake up. Would this make me at an increased risk?
All carbs are sugar to the body.
When I tell my mother than bread is sugar she looks at me as if I'm stupid. Then she toasts it, puts a margarine 'low fat' spread on because she wants to lose weight, then adds some jam.

Muscle growth and recovery requires some amount of carbs.
It's the added sugars and processed foods that's the problem. Healthy carbs in moderation are a must.
Restricted blood flow to the heart doesn't sound like something that promotes high energy levels. Is this in any way related to sleepiness after high carb meals?
I have the opposite problem, my blood sugar couldn't rise. I was stuck in having "peaks" at 105 for months. I had hypoglycemia every night.
I was concerned with not developing diabetes for a lot of years (I was never prediabetic, but everyone in my family was). I didn't wat much carbs in general and I thought I ate healthy.
I started having hypoglycemias during the night, these qere very difficult to spot because I never had them during the day or anything. I just woke up feeling like garbage for a lot of years without knowing why. I developed some autoimmune diseases and I thought that was the reason. I still woke up feeling like trash.
I started wearing a CGM and I figured I had nocturnal hypoglycemia. I started experimenting with eating before going to bed (I did a lot of intermittent fasting for years, so I wasn't used to eat right before bed)... I started getting better when I ate carbs.
I have been eating a lot more carbs and gained 3 kg of fat during the past 2 weeks and I feel a lot better. I sometimes think I was starved, but I didn't know😂

"Short term response do not necessarily result to bad long term outcomes." Ex. Exercise increases blood pressure, cortisol, etc. @Biolayne
As a carnivore, my post glucose usually stays between 100 and 108. My morning is usually 108. Go figure
In terms of that LDL study - you should caveat your statement with the fact the authors excluded anyone with established ASCVD. Here's an extract:
We excluded participants who were previously diagnosed with ASCVD, including those with peripheral artery disease, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke, and transient ischemic attack (n = 878,524)
Also, had to have cataract surgery at the age of 57. Nurses keep asking me if I’m diabetic. I think I am, but my doctors say I am not. Have diabetes on both sides of my family.
maybe prediabetic...time to make positive changes!!
Can you clarify, is it when your sugar spikes above let’s say 100 or when its stays above let’s say 100 many hours after the meal is bad? Because mine does spike above 100 but it’s pulled down less than an hours later below 100
So is this good or bad? Thanks
Do you ever see higher glucose levels in people who over train/workout because of high cortisol? How about palpitations from glucose imbalance?
I'm frustrated with my MD, he is about health optimization and longevity, but doesn't think that berberine or metformin is that helpful at reducing risk. Ironically, my labs this year without berberine had a higher a1c and higher ldl. He wants me to keep with diet and exercise rather than adding berberine back into my supplements. I am adding it back this week because I read that berberine helps reduce ldl.

What is the best time to exercise after a meal?
60 to 90 minutes after a meal?
And how intense and how long?

How does APob factor into this new findings?
People who do high intensity training have blood sugar spikes from their training.
I agree with your comment.
My thought is would it be different because since you are in the act of exercise, that the glucose does not sit in the body's system but is used quickly.
Making a healthier situation.
@jimgillert20 I was just typing out a similar comment and accidentally erased it. That's my thought, too. Endogenous glucose spikes are useful and released out of necessity. If it occurs as a result of the intensity of exercise, during the exercise, it's also being utilized immediately...which is what matters in the end.
Yes, there’s a difference between when a body hasta get rid of it asap by insulin spike and when hasta produce it for an immediate need. Our body is just outstanding, smart and efficient when we let it do it its job. 😊
Stressing the body for no goos reason doesn't sound like a good idea to me
My CGM says otherwise. My BG drops with intense exercise.
Small 15-minute walks after meals may be better than a 45-minute walk w;/o. So probably best to do both the workout and the exercise snacks

If you are going to eat the carbs anyway, eat them just before the workout. That way as they convert to glucose your muscles will use them or store them to replace what is getting used.
@@jdilksjrafter too for muscle recovery!
I would think it depends on how insulin sensitive you are.
I have heard a latest LDL TV drug add say "over 55" is too high.
Bodybuilding, natural or enhanced do this, they have simple sugar after a workout to promote muscle growth before a protein shake, plus Fibre slows the spike down. I like this channel but this needs clarification, maybe for the average slob its bad. Bodybuilders also do it before going on stage or modeling so the muscles are more full, and muscles prevent dementia this channel said a few days ago so it needs clarification I think
Thanks for saying slob

Regular fasting, at least 24-36-72 hours once a week helps heal metabolic health.
A lot of these guys forget its not the sugar spike that's bad, its the bodys inability to control sugar that's bad. If you're a high performing athlete your body might need many high calorie sugar spikes a day.
No one needs high insulin spikes caused by dumping toxic amounts of glucose in the system. Exercise physician Dr. Tim Noakes has shown that athletes can perform better with zero carbs.

"Ample research shows": one cherry picked study doesn't equal evidence, to me. Lots of links to questionable supplements, though. See a recent video from Gil Carvalho, called "Do Insulin Spikes cause weight gain and diabetes?". He says that the people who had big insulin spikes, had better post prandial glucose levels, and better fasting glucose levels. Nicola Guess said earlier that post prandial, big blood sugar spikes are a good thing because then you get a big insulin spike to bring it down. She said that your beta cells get tired and stop responding to the signals if you eat often (which people like myself until recently might have been inclined to do, thinking that a number of snacks throughout the day would be the best way to stabilize their blood sugar). She also says weight loss and exercise slaughter all else. Excessive visceral fat increases insulin resistance. I do use berberine, and it's not exactly a sure solution to bring your blood sugar down. I see lots of overweight people at the gym. The lessons to me, are, obesity has a large genetic component, and that it's possible to exercise frequently and still be overweight.
