Insulin 1: What does insulin do, and why do we need it? 

This is the greatest presentation (simplicity) I have ever seen. What a blossoming refreshment amongst a world of overhyped bombarding ear-humping noise Amazing teacher 🎉

I always wondered what role insulin played in the body and this Insulin 101 lesson explained it perfectly

you have been the only one who has been able to teach me this - thanks a lot!!!!!

9 years. This explanation has been out there for 9! years! And I only find it now. This was just perfect.

if i had a teacher like you i would've probably finished my high school

Excellent teacher. I've watched so many videos on this topic and you are simply the best.

You are awesome with the series of 3 videos. Very informative and explained well. Great job!

Great explanation and simple to understand. Thanks for this!

Been hearing about Insulin thousands of time, specifically with intermittent fasting discussion. Never bothered to look it up until now. Clean explanation.

This has to be the best explanation of any medical condition/situation Just subscribed and am looking forward to more of your work

I'm only 4 minutes into this video/your channel and I love it. Thank you this is exactly what I needed and the way you explain this shit makes it understanding!

Wow! Very well explained. First time to have it handed on a plate and really understand it.

I love the way you teach. Thanks

Well done! Short, simple and to the point.

Thank you is a tiny word to express the gratitude for explaining this topic 🙏

Very well put.thank you!

thank you. That was very clear and useful !

I feel the same as Michael O'Hara. I have been insulin dependent for 21 years. No one ever took the time to explain to me that sugar is TOXIC in your blood stream. Or any of the other ways sugar effects your body. And doesn't effect your body. And now I know.... Thank you macrophage!

Can you do another whol video except instead of the chocolate cake, doing a piece of fish (or protein source) ,....and then another video with the same thing... except a stick of butter (or fat source). If so, that would be amazing and so so interesting!!!! I love this stuff!!!!!!

Fantastic explanation. Thank you.

Great explanation man! Thanks!

Thankyou for your simple explanation

Superb explanation

Thank you Sir for explaining so vividly---🙏

Hello, Macrophage. I was diagnosed with Insulin Resistance a couple of months ago, and then I searched a lot on the Internet. I like very your works very much. It gives me a clear mind about why it is important to me. I am from China, there isn't lots of information like this on the Chinese website, Can I reprint your works to the Chinese website, I will indicate the author and your tubing address. Thank you so much!

that's the best explanation, thank you!!!

WoW! Very well explained, thanks.

this is so well explained ! Thanks heaps !

This was a good example thank you.

Very informative señor 💯

Awesome explanation. Really helpful!!

Best explanation ever ❤️

Well explained!!!

Superb - Thank you !

Fantastic all around!

Thanks for the lesson!

That was great, I think the difference on the explanation was the drawing. It can make a lot of difference than just talking. Another subscriber 😊

Nice job doing this video

Thank you.

Thanks a lot

Brilliant. Nicely presented. Patrick, could you please tell me what software (whiteboard, etc.) you used to create this video? Thank you.

V good info .really.

Thanks!

Can u please explain insulin resistance and intermit fasting effects?

Very well explained :)

Can you give me your sources, please? Thanks a lot!

what software you use as chalk board

Really nice videos ❤

Bro after 9 years at all the sudden your video shows up and helped me understand insulin with the most smooth and simple way🌹

Thank u for the beautifulllll message I would really appreciate if u could inform or explain why deos our body stop releasing insulin Thank you in advance

excellent

Love your videos. If you are doing intermittent fasting, can you have coffee and does it need to be black or can you add something that won't break your fast?

I get all this, nice. Now, the part that I don't get is what happens to the insulin that is created by bcell? I mean, where or in what process is insulin consumed? Is it consumed when it opens the door to the cell to receive the glucose? Not sure if I missed that...

Good vidio.

Excelent! 🎉

I am using FreeStyle Libre 1 with Ambrosia Nightrider and LinkBluCon app. I am able to calibrate the libre and see both calibrated and non-calibrated values and graph. Also, gets alarm for HI/LO, out of range and no readings.

Lets just admire how he can draw with a mouse

thx but I wanna say where does the insulin go and what happens to those cells which have glucose as it is toxic the lysosome will destroy it?

He writes the letter 'S' starting from the bottom.

I like the pay day example

There is a lot of information about insulin and insulin spikes... so say you start eating a ketogenic diet, does the release of glucagon get interfered with? The pancreas can get exhausted making all that insulin, is that true about glucagon? What supports the glucagon release other than low blood sugar? When I have low blood sugar, instead of having a bit of orange juice to externally raise blood sugar, I want to keep that glucagon pathway working efficiently, how can I do that? Eat protein and some fat and be patient, maybe rest, until my blood sugar normalizes?

Does the glucose go to the liver first.

Confused as many other educational videos explain that glucose cannot enter the cells with out insulin ‘unlocking’ the cell? Can you please explain, how this can occur when you have explained that glucose can enter b-cell freely without the form of insulin?

The only video I understand

How long does insulin stay in the blood after your eat carbs

Good teaching, all I knew before this was that insulin regulates glucose, and that too much is not good.

Does glucose melt?

1:09 you start your S's from the bottom end? That's New To Me.

cool.

Hypothetical if high sugar wasn't "toxic" in the blood and u didn't store the excess sugar what would happen? Tons of energy?

👏

why is excess glucose toxic to the body?

This presentation really amazing, also with more information, Unfortunately, most presentations or articles about diabetes or insulin are not mentioning the condition in which some kind of glucose does not require insulin to enter the cell, (B-Cell 7:08). I think this is a same when we eat honey because this is what I noticed when using a pure honey for our patient the blood sugar really didn’t increase and maybe because the honey consists of fructose more, we hope that the dietitians and doctors prescribe a plan for diabetics in order they can benefit from honey instead of advising diabetic patient definitely to avoid honey despite the great benefits from honey that the body really need it especially that honey contains natural Antioxidants and many benefits.

Why is the stomach at the place of the heart

Good work, the best short minutes spent today (and I spent the day studying statistics) 😉

but this is not the only function of insulin right?

6:25

I thought my body would never be the same again, but you fixed it. My heartiest gratitude to you Dr Igudia for helping me cure my type 2 diabetes disease successfully

Insulin never goes away,,,,

so you need to inject insulin after eating sugar

Automatic saved video

sir if a person suffers from high insulin resistance and gets diabetes 2 can he be given insulin to reduce his sugar

Thanks you Dr Igudia on RU-vid for all you do in my life and my family. I went for a test today after taking the medication i ordered from Dr Igudia and I tested Type 2 Diabetes’s negative. Thanks doctor I will keep letting the world know about your good work sir.

If the chocolate cake is not served on a plate, I ain’t gonna eat it!

I'm on hour 12 of my fast. My goal is to hit 48 hours. It's me vs me. I think I can do it but I failed many times before.

Glucose or carbohydrates or larger sugars?? Around 1:20-1:35. I’m confused. Huh? Thank you

Conundrum

عرض روعة صراحة، وكذلك فيه معلومات أكثر لسوء الحظ، فإن معظم العروض أو المقالات المتعلقة بمرض السكري أو الأنسولين لا تذكر الحالة التي لا يحتاج فيها الجلوكوز للأنسولين كي يدخل للخلية، (B-خلية 7:08). وأعتقد أن هذا هو نفس ما يحصل عندما نأكل العسل لأنني لاحظت فعلا أنه عند استخدام العسل الخالص لمريضنا بالسكري فإن السكر لا يرتفع في الدم ربما لأن العسل يتكون من الفركتوز أكثر، آمل أن يصف أخصائيي التغذية والأطباء خطة لمرضى السكري لجعلهم يستفيدون من منافع العسل بدلا من تأكيدهم بشكل قاطع على تجنبه على الرغم من الفوائد العظيمة التي يحتوي عليها العسل والتي فعلا يحتاجها الجسم خاصة أن العسل يحتوي على مضادات الأكسدة الطبيعية والعديد من الفوائد.

So you body only let insulin when u body have less glucose???

So its not about insulin resistance actually.

fat causes insulin resistance How does fat cause insulin resistance? The scans showed researchers that higher fat levels in the blood caused insulin resistance by interfering with glucose transport into the muscles. This can happen within three hours. One hit of fat can start causing insulin resistance, inhibiting glucose uptake after just 160 minutes.

"Glucose is our main source of fuel" "Too much glucose is toxic" 😂😂 The main and preferred fuel source is fat.

Meeting Dr Igudia RU-vid channel was the beginning of a new life for me after using his herbs medication in curing my type 2 Diabetes disease completely

Clucose is the main source of fuel IF YOU EAT CARBS FOR FUEL.

Insulin is bad, watch Dr. Berg’s videos on the topic.

5:47 - Maybe I'm just stupid... so can someone help me out. The bottom line question for me is What does insulin Do... and although this presentation is Very detailed... The bottom line question is unclear because there is a double negative statement at 5:47 which indicates that insulin both tells cells to both absorb and release glucose. So... the question remains: Does the amount of insulin in the blood lower... or Raise the level of glucose? And although the answer may be within the presentation perhaps it would be better stated as: More insulin = lower glucose... or more insulin raises it. I believe the former to be correct.... But I'm not sure...

Meeting Dr IGUDIA RU-vid channel was the beginning of a new life for me after using his herbs medication in curing my Diabetes disease.

It is a body not a "baaaaaaaaardy".

Why doesn't insulin start pushing glucose into fat cells from the very first bite of cake?

Lol spoon-fed.
