Carnivore Diet: Excess Protein = Glucose?

Carnivore Diet: Excess Protein = Glucose?

*****
Summary of Transcript:
Dr. Ken Berry debunks the myth that eating high protein levels will spike blood sugar levels, which will kick the body out of ketosis. He explains that gluconeogenesis, the process of creating glucose, is a natural and safe process that happens in all mammals including humans, and that the process is demand-driven rather than supply-driven. While red blood cells require glucose, the liver can produce all the glucose the body needs. Research shows that astrocytes in the Brain can also make glucose as needed, making it unnecessary to consume carbohydrates for glucose. The body will only produce glucose when necessary, making the fear of consuming too much protein or starting gluconeogenesis unfounded. The key to a successful low-carb diet is individualizing the number of carbohydrates consumed based on one’s biochemistry, physiology, age, and health status.

Summary of Description:
This video discusses gluconeogenesis, the process of making glucose from another substrate, and how it can benefit a low-carb or keto diet. The video explains that gluconeogenesis is a normal process that occurs in the liver, kidneys, intestines, and even astrocytes in the Brain. The video emphasizes that the information presented is for general guidance only, and viewers should always consult their doctor or qualified healthcare professional regarding their medical condition. The footage provides various resource links, including research studies and a book, to support the information presented.

Understanding Gluconeogenesis and Low-Carb Diets

Gluconeogenesis is a metabolic process that frequently receives a bad reputation, but it is a vital process in our bodies. This process involves creating glucose from a different substrate, and various body organs, including the liver, kidneys, intestines, and even astrocytes in our Brain, can undertake it.

However, it is not just the process of gluconeogenesis that has received a lot of negative press. Low-carb diets, such as Carnivore or keto, have also been criticized. This video aims to help people better understand the process of gluconeogenesis and the benefits of low-carb diets.

Benefits of Low-Carb Diets

One of the most significant benefits of low-carb diets is that they can help people reverse obesity, fatty liver, diabetes, and pre-diabetes. They can also help with numerous other conditions, such as depression, anxiety, and brain fog.

Understanding How Hormones Regulate GNG

The video links various studies and papers that illustrate how hormones regulate GNG and the impact of thyroid hormones on this process. Some studies show that ingested protein does not cause GNG, while others explore the possible link between insecticides and diabetes.

Become a Patron

Dr. Berry encourages viewers to become patrons and ask him questions. He also promotes a line of liver supplements and suggests that viewers eat real salt.

Dr. Ken D. Berry has been a family physician in rural Tennessee for over 20 years, with over 25,000 patients under his care. However, he advises viewers to consult their doctor before making significant lifestyle changes and not use his video as medical advice.

The video aims to help people understand gluconeogenesis, low-carb diets, and studies surrounding this topic. It concludes by advising people to seek professional medical advice and never to rely solely on videos or information found online.

This video will help you understand what you need about Gluconeogenesis or a Carnivore, KETO, and Low-Carb diet. Gluconeogenesis is a vital, required metabolic process that has received some bad press over the past few years. Once you understand the purpose of this process, you will no longer fear it.

Gluconeogenesis is the process of making glucose from another substrate. Your Liver, Kidneys, Intestines, and even Astrocytes in your Brain are capable of this normal process.
