I'm going to show you how to get rid of puffy eyes okay it's so easy all you have to do is understand the mechanism there's a lot of fancy terms for puffy eyes uh periorbital edema all you need to know is it's called eye bags and unfortunately the medical profession treats this condition with drugs steroids antihistamines all sorts of medications and I'm not telling you not to take your medication I just want to give you another viewpoint on this I mean if you look up the Wikipedia page it'll say potentially could be caused from the
hypothyroid insomnia infection allergy and a whole bunch of other causes which are so rare and the bigger cause the more common cause isn't even mentioned at all and the reason I know a lot about this is I had puffy eyes for many years I didn't know what it was but once I did this one thing it completely cleared up now on the Wiki page there's two little things that were interesting okay they did mention one cause being high levels of sodium okay which is definitely true and also they mentioned u a low carb diet could
help prevent puffiness of the eyes which I found very interesting too and they had also a little data you know using cucumber slices on your eyes or C packs yeah maybe that might help for a second but it doesn't really correct the problem yes many times the kidneys are involved and yes there's usually a sodium problem as well but both these conditions are stemming from too much sugar in your bloodstream I mean even if you take a look at the number one cause of kidney disease it's diabetes what is diabetes high levels of sugar so
when you look at someone's eyelids and they're puffy yeah it could be related to the kidney but we want to go deeper and here's the Simplicity of it this is what you need to know when there is too much sugar in the bloodstream you're going to have too much insulin in the bloodstream you'll eventually develop insulin r resistance both of these situations causes your body to hold sodium more salt is retained when you consume sugar and if you do this for a long period of time it'll overload the kidneys and it'll actually back up into
the system and it shows up in the eyelids sometimes even before other parts of your body I was at a restaurant uh about two or three months ago and I remember seeing an overweight kid with an overweight dad just chowing down serious amounts of carbs and both of them had really puffy eyes I was very tempted to go over there and talk to them but I I I didn't do it my wife said no you better not do that but I think a lot of people are not aware that's it's coming from the sugar so
sugar causes the retention of fluid because of the retention of sodium there's a couple other things that happen number one the depletion of potassium you start to become pottassium deficient when you consume carbs partly what happens is when you store this excess sugar it gets stored is something called glycogen which is basically a series of glucose molecules strung together with the help of potassium so you need potassium to store the sugar as glycogen in your liver and the muscles and so the more sugar you eat the more pottassium gets kind of stored away and stuck
in this stored system of glucose called glycogen two other things happen you start to develop uh more sympathetic dominance that means that your flighty mechanism is more activated and that's the stress mechanism also another thing is increased called renin it's a hormone and both of these things the sympathetics and renin retain sodium as well so we have a lot happening in relationship to the holding of fluid and the retention of sodium and a depletion of potassium and of course when you eat junk food what's junk food sugar starch MSG mono sodium glutamate boy the next
day you'll probably notice your eyes are puffy that is what we're talking about if you want to know how to fix it very simply you want to get this sugar out of your diet and you can also start taking potassium and or start eating foods high in potassium if you want a really good video on exactly what to eat to help you with that I put it up right here check it out
