first let me introduce you to someone you should know for this video me Jessie and Charles P otherwise famously known as glucose goddess biochemist influencer and author of the book blost Revolution I bought studied and read her book and chose four hacks to test and see firsthand if it truly works I tested these hacks over a week eating two of the same meals for each hack one as a control and one to test a hack then I waited for my glucose monitor to measure and compare the glucose Spike for each meal also to test which hack works the best I ate the same chicken burger for breakfast over 5 days one as a control and the other four to test out the hacks and finally we had the ultimate meal one where I tested all four hacks and the other with none also we have a bonus hack at the end so stay tuned but before we get started let me introduce you to the sponsor of this video better he if you clicked on this video you're probably looking to improve your health or manage your health

help you be the best version of yourself wait hold on what exactly is glucose and why should we care glucose is a type of sugar that provides energy to the cells in your body we get glucose mostly from the food we eat especially carbohydrates after digestion glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream too much glucose in a bloodstream causing a glucose Spike the more carbs and sugars you eat the bigger the spike glucose spikes contribut to imbalanced glucose levels and therefore leading to brainfall Cravings weight gain but also more severe issues like heart disease and diabetes just think about it this way the bigger the glucose Spike the bigger the crashes it's just like a roller coaster aray it quickly coms up and it quickly drops during that sharp crash you feel more tired and get more Cravings because your body is trying to compensate for the sudden dropping glucose creating this whole cycle of a never ending glucose roller coaster and that's why every everyone whether you have diabetes or not should work towards having stable glucose levels to protect our bodies from immediate short-term effects and devastating long-term effects so now that we're more acquainted with glucose let's get into the hacks number one eating your food in the right order it's time to eat this deconstructed Burger we should be eating in the order of the fiber so the vegetables first then the protein then the bread this hack alone reduces your Spike by 73% this is because if carbs are eaten first they are broken down into glucose earlier and absorbed into the bloodstream quickly ultimately leading to a glucose Spike so eating carbos lass slows down the rate in which glucose enters the bloodstream as for the overall experience though I don't think you're going to get that flavor explosion you'd get if you eat this as a whole it's just like a salad oh just feels like I'm biting into a raw onion and that's it all clear did I enjoy the meal definitely not as much as if I was to have it as a whole Burger eating in the right order barely caused a glucose bite compared to the control burger I tested this out with a different meal consisting of salmon asparagus cucumber and quinoa brown rice in both cases due to the nature of the meal itself that is less carbs no Spike was to be seen however eating an order barely caused a variance in my blood glucose levels similar to the Burger The Experience wasn't the most enjoyable but the effect was definitely still there the lesson here is to experiment how to create more flavorful food for each nutrient group number two have vinegar any type of vinegar white wine red wine balsamic or apple CER vinegar all have seing effects on flatting the glucose Spike not only that it helps you reduce Cravings makes you feel less hungry and he me out burns fat the enzyme that breaks down food into glucose is inactivated in the presence of acetic acid I think I said that right meaning glucose enters our bloodstream much slower also this fascinating thing acetic acid encourages your cell to absorb glucose faster from your bloodstream resulting in lower blood sugar levels and therefore flattening the spike this hack is also especially useful if you're in the mood for a sweet treat Hello friends it's been a long day so I got myself an asai ball I absolutely love asy ball more than I do ice cream I think at one point in summer I had this like at least twice a week and though it claims to be all natural I'm curious to see how much sugar is really in this this is exciting a science experiment if you will a few moments later hey guys I had to turn on the camera because first look how beautiful that sky is anyways more importantly you guys need to see my glucose level right now I expected a spike but not this all throughout yesterday and today my glucose levels has been around like Max hitting six but look at this are you guys seeing this 9. 0 and Rising that's insane and that's from an assy ball ladies and gentlemen really interesting very eye opening as well one week later hello so we are going to have an assy Ball but before that we're going to test out a hack pouring about a tablespoon add some water and there you have have it your glucose Spike reducing concoction you're going to use a straw cuz it is quite strong and you want to make sure you protect your teeth and your gums cheers oh oh my God I will say this does not taste good the difference in the glucose bike is huge not only that I felt a huge difference in how I felt feeling less tired and craving less food afterwards oh freak but what if I forgot to drink vinegar before or during my meal well that's okay because this vinegar hack is effective even after 20 minutes of eating okay Hannah but what should I do if I can't choose to eat in order like having a curry or I don't have vinegar on hand like at a restaurant well rest assured friends let me introduce you to hack number three adding a green starter this hack is difference of the one before eating in order because instead of singling out the fiber and the vegetables you're actually adding a whole new dish to your meal instead and appetizer or entree if you will but the science is the same as before eating fibers first adds a mesh that slows down the intake of glucose the screen starter is with zucchini and parmesan cheese from her book Bona petitte I try to make it nice and pretty kind of plated it up like R ay M that is really good I don't think I've ever had zucchini on its own before I surprisingly really like this other than enjoying my burger far more this time the results were quite astounding the control burger had a plus 2.
7 impact whereas the green starter had a plus 1. 6 impact you could think maybe because you had more food and more calories it could lead to a greater glucose Spike but this hack shows it's not about what you eat but more so how you eat instead this hack is also great news if you're choosing to go out to eat maybe a nice in a day at an Italian restaurant or family dinner having Chinese food or in my case Pizza hello everyone we are here at the restaurant to eat some pizza right now my glucose level is relatively High stop focusing it's at 6.
