DIABETES DEBACLE

  • Nicole, a diabetes expert, and Vinnie went through the twitter “shit-storm” together
  • The two wanted to find out why people were upset and quell everyone’s fears
  • They had literally just recorded a podcast touching on the differences between Type 1 and Type 2
  • So, Vinnie brought on some people who were prior upset with Vinnie because they are affected by Type 1 diabetes, but with Vinnie they brought awareness on this show

THE PROBLEM WITH FRUIT JUICE

SUGAR IN FRUIT AND IN FRUIT JUICE

  • Your body does not know the difference between fructose from an apple or high fructose corn syrup
  • If you are gonna eat fruit, eat it in the whole form
    • This is better because limits the amount of fructose
  • Fructose is metabolized in the liver, if you have big doses of fructose, it can hurt your triglycerides, cause liver disease and diabetes
  • When you eat high levels of fructose, you do not feel full because fructose does not raise insulin levels, which is what makes you feel full
  • Fenfen – was given to overweight people
    • Sped up metabolism and made your brain feel full
      • Drug was taking place of what we can make our bodies do anyway
      • When it was taken off the market, really hard for many people
  • Apple juice- one of the highest fructose things
    • Coke would be better because it has glucose which is better for your liver
    • 8oz of apple juice in a 16oz bottle
      • So so bad for you
      • 2:1 fructose:glucose
      • 58g of sugar, no fiber
  • Naked juice is not healthy — it is straight fructose!!!
    • 10 cups of carrots, many apples, tons of raspberries, etc etc
      • You overeat this fruit but don’t even notice because of how it is presented!
  • Green juice — it is cold pressed
    • first ingredient is apple juice then pineapple juice, cucumber juice, spinach juice, romaine lettuce juice, swiss chard juice, lemon juice, kale juice
    • 35g of sugar — the fact that it is green makes no difference
    • To get that much sugar from raw spinach, you would have to eat ~350 cups of raw spinach, OR 97 cups of swiss chard
