I will show you how to eliminate hypoglycemia with just one tiny change in your diet. Hypoglycemia is when blood sugar falls below normal, usually below 70mg/dL. However, it’s common to experience hypoglycemic symptoms even when blood sugar is regular. Symptoms of hypoglycemia include shakiness, irritability, hunger, sweating, headache, inability to concentrate, and blurry vision.
The technical term for insulin resistance is “earplugs.” If you were wearing earplugs while someone was talking to you, they would have to shout for you to hear them. The same is true for insulin resistance: your body’s cells become resistant to insulin, making it harder for your body to lower blood sugar levels.
Insulin is the hormone that helps lower blood glucose levels after you eat. When you eat carbohydrates, insulin is released to lower blood glucose levels. However, when you continuously eat carbohydrates and frequently snack, you constantly spike your insulin levels, which can lead to insulin resistance. Insulin resistance occurs when the body doesn’t respond to insulin as well as it should, leading to high insulin levels in the background.
One of the most common types of hypoglycemia is hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, which infants and children often experience. Hypoglycemia occurs when you have high insulin and normal blood glucose levels. This is because insulin controls glucose absorption in your cells. If you have insulin resistance, your cells may have low glucose levels, even if your blood glucose levels are normal.
A common myth is that having small, frequent meals can prevent low blood sugar. However, this is untrue and can worsen things over time. Eating frequently causes more insulin to be released, which leads to more insulin resistance and hypoglycemic symptoms.
The best way to fix hypoglycemia is to switch your body to run on fat for fuel instead of glucose. Our bodies only store a small amount of glucose in our muscles and liver; once that is used up, we need to consume more glucose. However, our bodies have much larger storage of fat that can be used for energy. Switching to fat for fuel takes a few days, but it significantly improves appetite control, energy, and insulin sensitivity. Running your body on fat for fuel also helps to prevent many health problems associated with insulin resistance.
Ketones and fatty acids are byproducts of using fat for fuel. These substances do not require insulin, which means you can bypass any health problems associated with insulin resistance. Additionally, when you use fat for fuel, you only need a few steps for energy production compared to the many steps required for glucose metabolism. This helps to improve energy production and lowers stress on the body.
In conclusion, hypoglycemia can significantly impact your daily life, but you can eliminate it with this tiny change in your diet. Switching to fat for fuel can improve your appetite control, energy, and insulin sensitivity. Additionally, using fat for fuel can help to prevent many health problems associated with insulin resistance.

Summary of Transcript:
In this video, the speaker explains that hypoglycemia is usually caused by insulin resistance, where high insulin levels cannot penetrate the resistance and help lower blood glucose. It is not related to actual low blood sugar levels. This resistance develops due to chronic spiking of insulin levels caused by consuming too many refined carbohydrates and frequent eating. Instead of relying on glucose for fuel, the speaker recommends running the body on fatty acids and ketones, which do not require insulin and can help bypass the problems associated with insulin resistance. This switch only takes a few days and can improve appetite, energy levels, and other health issues like inflammation, high blood pressure, and belly fat. The speaker discourages frequent snacking or consuming sugary food, which only worsens insulin resistance.

Summary of Description:
This video discusses the benefits of running the body on fat instead of sugar for fuel to eliminate hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia is a condition with low blood sugar; symptoms include shakiness, hunger, and headaches. The video explains that insulin resistance causes hypoglycemia, and the best way to fix it is to switch the body to fat fuel by consuming fewer than 50 grams of carbohydrates per day. This process takes only a few days and can also help with other conditions related to insulin resistance. The benefits of running on fat fuel include increased efficiency and less stress on the mitochondria, which can improve other organ functions.

Let’s talk about the best way to get rid of hypoglycemia naturally. Hypoglycemia is a condition where you have low blood sugar (below 70 mg/dl).
Common symptoms of hypoglycemia:
• Shakiness
• Irritability
• Anxiety
• Hunger
• Sweating
• Headaches
• Inability to concentrate
• Blurred vision
A person with hypoglycemia has insulin resistance. Chronic consumption of refined carbohydrates and frequent eating trigger spikes in insulin, which causes insulin resistance.
It’s rare to have low blood sugar when experiencing hypoglycemic symptoms. With hypoglycemia, you may have normal blood sugar levels, but you also have high insulin.
Glucose absorption in the cells is also dependent on insulin. The more insulin resistance you have, the less glucose you’ll have in the cells. This is why you might have average amounts of glucose in the blood but low amounts in the cells. This type of hypoglycemia is called hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia.
The worst thing you can do for hypoglycemia is to consume frequent small meals or sugar. The best way to get rid of hypoglycemia is to run your body on fat (fatty acids and ketones) instead of sugar for fuel.
Switching the body’s fuel source only takes a few days, and you don’t need insulin to be involved in the process. Switching the body to fat fuel may also help with many other conditions associated with insulin resistance.
Fat fuel is much more efficient than sugar for energy, taking massive stress off the mitochondria. The majority of non-infectious diseases may be related to damaged mitochondria. Other organs like the thyroid, liver, heart, and brain can also function better on fat fuel.
There is only one thing you need to do to switch to fat fuel and get rid of hypoglycemia: lower your carbohydrates below 50 grams per day.
