Thanks for the tips. Just a note about my father's eating habits (He was born in Poland, 1914, so his WOE was different than today's norm, by far). He never ate more than one starch at a meal, and sometimes commented: : "Corn AND potatoes", or "potatoes AND bread?" "too much starch is no good" He also used ACV on many things, especially sardines and kippers. If he snacked, it was a cold boiled potato and a glass of butter milk. He refused to drink soda, (he called it belly wash), he hated tacos, spaghetti, noodles, and said it wasn't food, it was slop. (This was his opinion of food in the 60s from what I remember when I was a child). I am lucky he taught me to eat liver, bone marrow, chicken gizzards, and other items that we now realize are what we need. Thanks again.
1. Don’t eat carbs naked 2. Eat carbs last 3. Don’t drink carbs 4. Don’t see carbs hot 5. Add vinegar ..I’m adding sixth one …do gentle walk for 15-30 min after carb meal
I reheated and ate 3 days old rice with chicken ( chicken biryani in my culture), it worked like magic. My morning fasting sugar was 6.3 and 5.7 after 2 hours eating 1 cup rice with 2 pieces of chicken ( cooked in coconut oil and desi ghee) and after 3 hours 5.3 and after 4 hours 5.1. I am super happy and will try again. Actually all tips working for me. Thank you
@@ktermalkut8332 oh okay I see. Is there a particular type of rice to use? Where can I find this biryani spices. Need to try this with either ghee or coconut oil.
Thanks. Our foods in Africa are mostly carbohydrates. Due to financial constraints, we have food crises. We rarely have choices when it comes to food in our markets. So this video will help. Pls do a video specifically for Africa.
Resistant starch is such a counterintuitive thing. And I have seen so much skepticism about it from sources I consider well informed and reliable. But it does seem worth investigating. I was raised on a lot of Asian food and I love rice, and sometimes I miss it because I've reduced it so much in my diet. If resistant starch is really a thing then using cold leftover rice to make fried rice looks even better than it used to...
I love my potatoes and Indian rice, my husband is from India, so we eat allot of spices, I like the small potatoes, I ways make them Indian style with the tumeric, pepper, cummin, I sprinkle little curry powder, I always put red onions, cauliflower, My sister in law showed me how to make them indian way. I love indian food and the spices help my lower my insulin.
Thank you kait. It really helps following your instructions. I love rice and make fried rice often, the healthy version with ghee , veggies, and mushrooms. Save in the fridge for next day. Lot of ghee and tofu, for high fat and protein. Again I keep fried rice and veggies separately to eat them in order protein, veggies fiber and rice last. A wonderful teacher you are 💕
I know this is an older video by now (8 months!), but you spoke about making starches into "resistant starch" by cooling it after cooking, and it reminded me of a wonderful potato recipe. It involves lacto-fermenting cooked potatoes, and it's so easy. All you do is boil some potatoes until soft and drain & mash them, then let them cool down enough they won't kill the probiotics in the yogurt culture. Then, you stir in some plain yogurt and let it sit at room temperature for a couple days. At that point, it's ready to eat or put in the fridge for later. Believe it or not, they're delicious eaten cold as a condiment or small side dish with a meal!
I might add, it's perfectly fine to add a good quality salt to it (preferably Celtic, Himalayan pink, or some other salt with trace minerals in it). Herbs are great too! Potatoes are dreadfully bland without seasoning!
I'm a recent convert to capers straight from the jar to start the ball rolling - as it were. Just think, real-deal bioavailable quercetin coupled with measurable inhibition of salivary amylase in one product. I kinda like the obvious tartness too. Makes subsequent mouthfuls all the more worthwhile. Result!
I found also if you're going to eat mashed espotatoes add lots of butter and eat it with hamburger gravy or bacon breast gravy. If the fat will help buffer the spike as well
Vinegar .. 2 hands up ... here is healthy salat = tomato + red bell paper + cucumber + coriander leaf's - pinch of sault, 2 spoons vinegar and touch of olive oil
Its doesn't mater what diet you do stress will activate your insulin resistance. So stress plays a big risk on have your sugar spikes. So if you fast or dont eat anything and you stress or you in a stressful satuation your sugar will spike really high.
I learned a technique for rice, which is adding rice vinegar to your rice as you cool it. I was wondering if rice vinegar had a similar affect as apple cider vinegar before you eat? Maybe that is why Japanese live so long. They consume a lot of rice but treat it differently than the US. Like mixing rice vinegar and cooling it?
Thank you for this video. I have the apple cider vinegar and need to remember to take it. I actually like it in a glass of cool water. I try to eat a little protein or fat with carbs. I didn't realize timing made a difference. I've sent this to my sister who is on insulin. I am not on insulin but am type 2.
Not everyone responds to anything in the same way. Resistant starch may work for some people but not for me, according to my blood glucose meter. Beat Diabetes! With Dennis Pollock and his wife tests all kinds of foods. One is comparing white and brown rice immediately after cooking, and cooking and cooling overnight. It did not make any significant difference. Another very interesting test is the difference between a snickers bar and a banana. The banana raised blood glucose more than the snickers bar. Explanation? The snickers bar has peanuts that slowed down the raise in blood glucose. Confirms your idea that eating carbs not naked raised blood glucose less. 👍
Thank you for this video, Kait! I try to eat my carbs last. I don’t eat my food hot. More like warm. I do drink ACV. I appreciate all your advice. Doing OMAD today!
thanks Kait, i love your vids! Watching you and other health champions,, I put my Type II in remission some 6 months back or so. I watch your videos to stay on top.. bedsides yours are the best
Best way: 1) Don't. 😂 But yeah, they're definitely not harmful to everyone or in any quantity. I don't categorically exclude anything from my diet.. I just focus on tuning the proportions based on the feedback I get from my body, and I try to mostly limit my consumption of highly insulogenic foods to periods when I'm using lots of energy _or_ have just done so.
Hi Kait-I was recently diagnosed with IR (and I've had MS for 20+ years) I am very conscious of my diet and have made a lot of changes which has helped stop disease progression. I am new to Intermittent fasting and have one question for you - I am wondering how eating fiber rich/protein rich carbs such as Kashi cereal affects insulin resistance? PS I love your channel!
Wonderful information. I've been employing storing my cooked brown rice overnight in the fridge and I can feel the difference in how my meals digest. Great tip! I'm going to incorporate ACV before meals next. Thanks Kait for your well thought out and presented videos. Please keep them coming.
Thank you so much for the content, Kait! I will implement all of the tips, cause I do miss carbs from time to time. Your videos helped me to loose weight that I've been struggling to shed for the last 10 years!
I eat a salad first with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, and tonight I even added apple cider vinegar to it. Whew! Almost too much for me but I was going to have Schwans fire roasted vegetables( which has small redskinned potatoes in it) with my air fryer chicken thighs.( I hate white meat).
Btwy somewhere I read that any vinegar would help, I havent tried apple vinegar but drinking pickle juice really upsets my stomach even diluted in water
Very good videos. We are receiving good tips and helping us a lot. However, I would like to advise that please show slides at the end of video to summarise it all and we can remember n keep reviewing that. I saw final powerpoint slide in a couple of videos but not in all.
Thank you so much , dear Kait! Extremely helpful , indeed and novel, especially the last one about resistant starch formation. I know understand why the Greeks will let their traditional hot dishes-Moussaka f.I. cool down considerably before serving.
Hi Kait 🌄 👋, Every time I listen to you I learn something new. I am so happy to know that I ☺️ could have rice and potatoes the next day after cooking them. No, I will not eat tons of it, but I will have some once in a while. Yes. Thank you so much Kait. Warm thoughts I send your way Raquel 🙋🏻♀️🙉🙈🙊🌬🌺🌸🌿🌺🌸🌿🥔🍚🤸🏻♀️🌺🌸🌿🌺🌸🌿💕💕
I am trying to cut carbs cz my blood triglycerides are high despite cholesterol being normal. It'll definitely try these if carbs are unavoidable,.especially the cool and reheat bit as I'm Indian and rice is an important part of our diet, which I'm currently avoiding. Also, what's your opinion on effervescent apple cider vinegar tablets?
@@selenajwallace294 Thanks, Selena. I’ve never gotten an answer to this from one of the doctors. I agree with you, but it would be nice to hear it from one of them.
Number one has worked for me..I ate a whole kiwi with yogurt and my measures my bloodsugar 30, 60 min and 2 hours after eating it my blood sugars never rose further than 112! I ate a green apple alone and it went up to 152 next morning. Which was very dissapointing as I had been having levels between 85 -90 in the mornings. That all changed last weekend when I went back to eating carbs. I stopped eating them again but it took me a week and a day of OMAD to get them back on track..I think I might been eating to much cashews those days
@@nanapoku5259 Not yet. But i will soon. Just waiting to have good blood sugar levels for a couple of days. It took me a week to recover from a weekend of indiscretions. Fasting BS went up to 152! Now I am at 85-90 again
@@nanapoku5259 It is more what I don't eat. And how I eat.The Dr ordered insulin and metformin as my blood sugar was 356 a month ago despite me trying to do IF.Flash news IF with a high carb diet does not work to lower Bloodsugar..I am not an expert and still am finding my way. I use the glucometer to assess how foods affect me, Bread for example I know that has risen my levels from 55 to 356..so it is a BIG NO.Potatoes are a no for me too. I ate a bit of pasta after a big salad and there was no big rise, although it was only very small portion maybe less than 1/2 a cup. I try to follow coach Kate advice and tips and watch a lot of videos about low carb lifestyle. I am moving more nothing really dramatic I just walk more.Chicken broth helps me with hunger pangs. I amost always skip breakfast except for coffee with a bit of milk..unless I am hungry then I try a low carb option like eggs. Or cheese.Tip: READ THE LABELS OF EVERYTHING YOU BUY lots of hidden sugar everywhere..
@Health Coach Kait First of all, I am so thankful to have came across you on RU-vid! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge :) Wonderful information! What about drinking warm lemon water in the mornings made with organic lemon? Is that okay? Or, is that high carb?
If you're insulin resistant but not even prediabetic, how do you keep track? I can't use a continuous glucose monitor because I'm not even prediabetic.
I think the first tackle try is the cooking calling reheating the starch. I haven’t had potatoes in four months so I think I’ll try some red potatoes with breakfast. I’ll cook them the night before. Let them cool and reheat them. So you’re saying, by cooking this way I won’t have an Insulin spike by doing this?
