It has been generally accepted that insulin resistance is
the number one cause of rising blood sugar levels in the United States. Insulin
resistance simply means your body requires more insulin to bring your blood
sugar levels back down into the normal range. Insulin resistance is a precursor
to becoming Prediabetic and Diabetic.
But there is something else that occurs during this time of
rising insulin resistance which most people are unaware of. It is called “Fatty
Liver.” If the condition worsens, it can become a disease known as “Fatty Liver
Disease.” Fatty liver is just what the
name implies – the liver becomes clogged with fats which once in your liver,
become very difficult to remove.
For a long time the medical world thought that consuming
fats caused insulin resistance. However, we now know it is the consumption of
simple carbohydrates and sugar which increase triglycerides that raises insulin
resistance. Even worse, the consumption
of fructose (corn syrup) causes fats to be deposited in your liver, also
raising your insulin resistance. So now you have not only a higher insulin
resistance, but a clogged liver. The liver
is responsible for over ninety functions in the body; it is therefore
crucial not to impair its function. Studies show that the more intracellular
fat you have in your liver, the more insulin resistant you are likely to
become.
Why is the increased insulin resistance such a big deal?
Insulin resistance and elevated sugar levels have been connected to nearly
every disease and health crisis known: Cancer, Alzheimer, Diabetes, Heart
Attack, Strokes, poor immune response, and premature aging.
So why are fatty liver and insulin resistance occurring at
epidemic rates - and what can you do about it? Most of the problems can be
traced to flawed diet advice, coupled with clever but misleading marketing by
the food industry. However, there is also a lack of will power in our food
choices, and we as Americans simply eat an excessive amount of food.
As well as limiting the amount of starches and sugars you
consume, and reducing the overall quantity of food eaten, there is one
ingredient that has shown the ability to not only reduce insulin resistance,
but also help clear the fats out of your liver. It is called Humulone, a
specialized hops extract.
Humulones consist of three special molecules of the hops
flower and has been tested extensively over the past twenty years.
According to double-blind clinical trials, Humulone has the
ability to lower blood glucose by improving insulin resistance, while also
metabolizing the fat in the liver. These were independent studies done on
Prediabetics and Type II Diabetics, and published in peer reviewed medical
journals.
When you also consider the proven results of Humulone to lower
triglyceride levels, lower blood pressure, improve cholesterol, reduce body
mass (belly fat), and the ability to help repair the kidneys, you are looking
at a very unique and special ingredient.
Currently, Humulone is contained in a product called Diabetes Defense which is now available
at many doctors’ offices, some specialty vitamin stores, and on-line. Another unique
feature of the product is that it is a very powerful anti-oxidant, and it only
requires one 100mg capsule per day for most people to see results.
If you can start to modify your diet, exercise, drink water
instead of junk beverages, and take a special product like Diabetes Defense, you may just be able to reduce or eliminate the
risk of developing one of the deadliest health issues of our generation.
