=== Carb Sensitivity Shift (02:10) ===

[00:00:00]  There's something that happens to most people around the world between the ages of 45 and 50.
[00:00:07]  And this is what happens.
[00:00:08]  Hormones start to decrease.
[00:00:11]  And then we become more carbohydrate sensitive the more we get an insulin response and the more we gain weight.
[00:00:19]  It happens around 45 to 50 on almost everyone I see.
[00:00:23]  You cannot eat the same amount of carbs, sugars, and starches as when you were 20.
[00:00:26]  When you were 20, you could eat a pizza, a whole huge pizza, you wouldn't gain one pound.
[00:00:31]  But now you eat one slice and you gain two pounds, three pounds.
[00:00:36]  You eat one baked potato.
[00:00:37]  You gain five pounds.
[00:00:38]  Right.
[00:00:39]  That's because we become more carbohydrate sensitive as we age.
[00:00:43]  That's why so many people are developing pre-diabetes and diabetes.
[00:00:47]  That's why we are seeing this epidemic of obesity.
[00:00:50]  That's why we're seeing this epidemic of disease.
[00:00:52]  Because listen, the food recommendations of this country, the dietary guidelines for the last 50 years has been we should consume 45 to 65 percent of our calories as carbohydrates.
[00:01:09]  That's 200 to 300 grams of carbs a day.
[00:01:12]  If you do that, you are guaranteed, especially if you're over 50, to have obesity, eventually either prediabetes or type 2 diabetes.
[00:01:21]  You've just signed up for inflammation in your brain, dementia, pre-dementia, senile dementia, as well as Parkinson's, as well as cancer, as well as heart disease, as well as most every degenerative disease, including autoimmune disease.
[00:01:35]  That's because we all become carbohydrate sensitive.
[00:01:38]  You've seen those little tiny twiggies that are teenage girls, and then they stay skinny in their 20s.
[00:01:45]  They stay skinny in their 30s.
[00:01:47]  That's right.
[00:01:47]  And then all of a sudden, 45, 50 hits, and all of a sudden, you look at them and they're 250 pounds on the hoof.
[00:01:52]  Their husbands better love them because of that.
[00:01:55]  That's right.
[00:01:55]  Because all of that comfort food, potato chips, corn chips, Cheetos.
[00:02:00]  I had a lady yesterday, Cheetos, Cheetos.
[00:02:01]  Love Cheetos.
[00:02:02]  And now she's paying the price with arthritis and obesity.
[00:02:06]  She had 20 separate diseases.
[00:02:08]  She's only like 55 years of age.
