[04:43] Understanding the Impact of Excessive Insulin on Cellular Health and Insulin Resistance

·    Excessive insulin spikes, particularly above 15%, can disrupt cellular processes.

·    Elevated insulin triggers the mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) pathway, causing cells to consume more.

·    Common treatments for insulin issues, like medications, may not address the root causes.

·    Fasting and accessing adipocytes (fat cells) can help sensitize insulin and manage glucose levels. 

[11:10] Which type of water hydrates the body the best?

·    The type of drink you choose affects the level of hydration it provides.

·    Alkaline water with micro-clustering contains fewer hydrogen molecules that need separation.

·    Some bottled waters may contain BPA and phthalates from plastic, which can disrupt hormones.

·   Ionized water with pre-filters can be an excellent choice for optimal hydration and hormone balance. 

[26:05] The Fructose Test: Unveiling the Complexities of Sugar and Insulin

·    Fructose doesn't require insulin to enter cells.

·    Pure crystalline fructose may behave differently from fructose in natural sources.

·    Fiber intake can help mitigate glucose spikes when consuming fructose-rich fruits.

·   Dr. Grego stresses the importance of using herbs and glandulars for holistic health, as they provide a variety of nutrients that work synergistically with the body's natural processes. 

[38:59] Understanding the Science of Nutrition: Exploring Diet, Evolution, and the Role of Fats

·    Primate teeth structure and digestive systems are examined to argue that humans are naturally frugivores.

·    All foods eventually break down into carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

·    Seed oils and processed fats contribute to the formation of white visceral fat.

·   The historical shift from saturated fats to hydrogenated oils and trans fats is a dietary change that wasn't beneficial. 

[54:16] Restoring Pancreatic Function in Type 1 and Type 1.5 Diabetes Through Cellular Regeneration

·    The kidneys and liver are examples of organs capable of regeneration, even when a significant portion is lost.

·    Fruits are a powerful energy source, with a significantly higher oxidation-reduction potential than vegetables, meat, and dairy.

·    The body can regenerate new cells, but the outcome depends on whether a worn-out "brick" is replaced with another worn-out one or a healthy, functioning cell.
