And therefore, I'm becoming a little bit more free from the dependency on always having a glucose hit.

Yeah. Well, I have to admit, a lot of what I've learned about this comes from you. I mean, reading The Blood Sugar Solution, I think when I was in medical school, one of my favorite books of all time. Everyone should read it. But I mean, it's a wake-up call because that book is based on the research and it was not what I was learning at Stanford Medical School.

That if a patient walks into the office and their glucose is 99, that Bill of Health, it's under 100. You're totally fine. You don't need to think about this. That is false.

And we have learned there was a paper in The Lancet from, I think, two years ago that showed that fasting glucose is really a very lagging indicator of metabolic dysfunction and therefore probably not the best screening tool for us to use to identify people who are on their way to big problems.

And this paper was conservative, I would say, based on the methods and showed that it was about 13 years before your fasting blood glucose chart starting problems that you probably had underlying insulin resistance. So the body is so amazing. We... put all these stresses on it, like repeated glucose spikes.

Each one of those glucose spikes is telling your pancreas, it's stressing your pancreas and telling it to create that insulin surge that takes the glucose out of the bloodstream.

And as that happens repeatedly over and over again, and as your liver insulin resistance develops because you're eating so much fructose, these things are working together to basically make you less sensitive to insulin, to to create insulin resistance, which is the body's protective way of saying, whoa, too much insulin, too much glucose coming around. We can't get this all into the cell.
