Summary of Transcript:
This YouTube video discusses the paradoxical functions of insulin and how an insulin deficiency, rather than an excess, is the main reason why keto and intermittent fasting work. It reveals that insulin has many functions, such as lowering blood sugar, helping muscles grow, being anti-atherogenic, lowering LDL cholesterol, being a vasodilator, lowering the production of glucose in the liver, helping with absorption of potassium and magnesium, suppressing lipolysis, being an anti-inflammatory, and being an antioxidant. It explains that insulin resistance is what causes the negative effects of high insulin levels, as the receptor is not able to receive the insulin correctly.

Summary of Description:
This video discusses the potential health benefits of insulin, which is often misunderstood due to conflicting information. It explains that insulin resistance is actually an insulin deficiency caused by too much insulin, which can be addressed through lifestyle changes such as the Healthy Keto diet, intermittent fasting, exercise, stress reduction, and sleep. Natural remedies such as apple cider vinegar, berberine, cinnamon, chromium, zinc, vitamin D, magnesium, potassium, and omega-3 fatty acids can also help.

The Potential Health Benefits of Insulin
Insulin is a hormone that is essential for the body to function properly. It helps regulate blood sugar levels, supports muscle growth, and protects against muscle atrophy. It also supports the arteries and helps lower LDL cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose production in the liver. But did you know that insulin also has other potential health benefits?
Insulin helps suppress lipolysis, is a potent anti-inflammatory, and has antioxidant properties. Insulin nasal spray is used to help people with dementia, and it can also help increase testosterone and lower uric acid.
What Causes Insulin Resistance?
The real problem with insulin is not the hormone itself, but with the insulin receptors. When the receptors become resistant, as in insulin resistance, we lose the function of insulin. This is why someone with insulin resistance actually has an insulin deficiency. A high level of insulin is what creates insulin resistance, and the more you increase insulin, the less the receptors will work.
How to Fix Insulin Resistance
The best ways to fix insulin resistance are to get on the healthy keto diet, start doing intermittent fasting, get regular exercise, reduce your stress, and get plenty of sleep. Natural remedies for insulin resistance include apple cider vinegar, berberine, cinnamon, chromium, zinc, vitamin D, magnesium, potassium, and omega-3 fatty acids.
It is important to understand that insulin is not inherently bad. It is just like any other hormone in the body and has certain benefits. However, it is important to maintain healthy levels of insulin in order to reap the benefits and avoid insulin resistance.
Thanks for reading! I hope this helps you better understand the potential health benefits of insulin and how to fix insulin resistance.

Today I want to share something about insulin that you may have never heard before and clear up some confusion regarding insulin.
The main reason why the keto diet and intermittent fasting work so well to support a healthy body is that they both help lower insulin.
However, insulin has certain benefits. This is where the confusion starts. How can insulin be harmful and also have health benefits?
Potential health benefits of insulin:
• It helps lower blood sugar levels
• It supports muscle growth
• It protects against muscle atrophy
• It supports the arteries
• It helps lower LDL cholesterol
• It helps lower blood pressure
• It lowers the production of glucose in the liver
• It supports the absorption of potassium and magnesium
• It suppresses lipolysis
• It is a potent anti-inflammatory
• It has antioxidant properties
• Insulin nasal spray is used to help people who have dementia
• It helps increases testosterone
• It helps lower uric acid
The real problem is with the insulin receptors. When the receptors become resistant, as in insulin resistance, we lose the function of insulin.
When someone has insulin resistance, they actually have an insulin deficiency. You may have excess insulin in your blood, but it’s not affecting the receptors.
A high level of insulin is what creates insulin resistance. The more you increase insulin, the less the receptors will work.
The best ways to fix insulin resistance:
1. Get on the Healthy Keto® diet
2. Start doing intermittent fasting
3. Get regular exercise
4. Reduce your stress
5. Get plenty of sleep
The best natural remedies for insulin resistance:
• Apple cider vinegar (1 Tbsp in water)
• Berberine
• Cinnamon
• Chromium
• Zinc
• Vitamin D
• Magnesium
• Potassium
• Omega-3 fatty acids
