How to Avoid Blood Sugar Spikes (Without Reducing Carb Intake)

If any questions remain after seeing this video, please watch a Q&A video I made to address the seven most common questions I received: https://youtu.be/LVw60RIhbzg

Typical German efficiency with a low-key sense of humor. So refreshing. 👌

As someone recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, I have used many of these strategies to lower my A1c from 7.7 to 5.5 in 90 days. I also lost 45 lbs.

1. minimize high glycemic foods keep it under 60 3:12 2. Cook your starch cool it then we warm it up to lower the glycemic index 5:20 3. Don't eat naked carbs eat protein, fat and fiber with your carbs 6:35 4. Add some vinegar or pickled food before you eat 10:50 5. Second meeting effect 13:00 6. Walk 30 min after you eat 14:35

Excellent video. About 3.5 years ago, I was chronically obese (146kg) and used keto/low carb to drop to 82kg. This was eye-opening for me. Keto coupled with time restricted eating works very well to address obesity, but it is not the only way to eat and live if you are at a healthy weight. The problem once I hit my target weight was to figure out what I could and should eat. What I am doing now is very much along the lines you address in this video and this works. I still practice time restricted eating (I fast about 18 hours a day) and as I get older, I tend to reduce carbs, but don't need to eliminate them. The one thing that is common across all the various practices is to avoid processed food - I think that is 90% of the battle. I also think that you should burn the carbs you eat the same day you consume them, and that as you age and become more sedentary, reduce carbs and strive to get some exercise each day.

In a world full of overwhelming diet/health contradictions, this was so clear, practical, and informative - thank you 🙏

This is the most sensible information I’ve listened to in a while , these were info we were taught back in the day. I’m diabetic and I’m sure if every person listen this it will all make sense , THANK YOU DOC . Just pounce upon this Chanel

Am in Nursing school. This was well detailed and very helpful. I mean this guy literally used himself as an experiment to prove that this method actually works and can lower blood sugar. It might not be for everybody, but am pretty sure it does make a lot of sense and can work for some of us. I have been eating and preparing my meals just the way he explained not actually knowing that this can lower blood sugar. I cook from scratch and store them in the deep freezer. I bake bread too, but i store my dough in fridge for about 2 to 3 days before baking and they taste a lot more better. For a German, i must say his English articulation is very impressing. I subscribed.

Thanks for taking one for the team 😊

I have diabetes T1 since 2017 and this video contains all the information I need to know. This is high quality video without any fluff. God bless you and please continue uploading!

Thank you! My primary physician doesn’t want to send me to a diabetes specialist and is not giving me any other information. I’m 73 with diabetes. This video has given me more information than I’ve gotten in my entire diabetes years (20 years)

I found that this content is consistent with a lot of things that I'd read and heard about for a long time like the value of athletes' carb loading prior to a major athletic event, laboratory experiments slowing white rice carb absorption and more. This video nicely translates those disparate practices and studies into everyday practices that can be commonly practiced. Bottom line, this video's content makes sense and builds on and does not conflict with other information I've collected over a lifetime so feel confident that it's based on known facts.

Fantastic content. I love that you back it up with meter readings, the way a discussion like this should be done.

Thanks for adding real life examples. That was incredibly helpful!

The best video I've seen in a long time! Awesome information!!!

Thank you for the video and the downloads.

Thank you for presenting this information in a relatable, common sense way that makes it easier for us to use and follow.

My husband has been diabetic for 30 years, and now at 70 he's battling his numbers. (Insulin resistant.) He seizured a few weeks ago with low blood sugar, I thought I'd lost him! Your information here is completely new to us, and I'm so grateful! We'll work on all of these concepts! On another note, please be comforted by any ill effects you felt after stuffing your face with sweets at Christmas, you made your mother in law SO HAPPY!

One of the most valuable videos I've ever very seen on YouTube. THANKS

Thank you for taking the time to do these informative presentations.
