"Eat Chew Live" Dr. John’s Interview on Portland Today TV Program
Dr. John: About 20 years ago I started researching
or studying type 2 diabetes i understood that at that time insulin resistance could
not be the cause of type 2 diabetes then I met people who have lost legs kidneys
eyesight then i realized that insulin treatment could not prevent complications
of type 2 diabetes i mean i would describe the book as somewhat controversial
because there are others who say that that insulin resistance does cause type 2
diabetes you again say it does not
Chris: You talk about Insulin Resistance in the
book. Why do you think it does not cause type 2 diabetes?
Dr. John : The first of all the concept of insulin
resistance has never been validated you can use logic the mechanism and
measurements to validate the scientific concept the logic of insulin resistance
is not clear for example out of 200 different types of cell in the body only
three become resistant to insulin why billions of cells have to become resistant
to incident before a girl or a lady becomes just a gets gestational diabetes
and within four days after delivery she can flip back all these cells but
nobody knows the mechanism by which this amazing flip-flop takes place
Chris: Do you have a solution in the book?
Dr. John : Yes, I’m going to tell you this much
save the solution for those who read the
book because I want to end with one more question you don't really cover the subject
of type 1 diabetes at all but you do have some resources for people with that issue
if you have a type 1 diabetes i have a special message in order to reduce the amount
of insulin and the cost associated with it avoid grains because whether it is refined
grain or whole grain it is not necessary
grains contains glucose molecules each molecule of grain flour can have up to
200 000 molecules of glucose so if you don't put it in your mouth it cannot be
in your blood.
Chris: Dr john and we're running out of time I apologize
but I just want to mention one more time because that's the reason you're here
eat chew live the name of the book tackling that subject of insulin resistance
and type 2 diabetes thank you very much dot com okay eat you live dot com easy enough
to remember there it is on the screen.
