Description
When you are insulin resistant, your pancreas needs to produce increasingly more insulin to remove sugar from your bloodstream. The insulin takes those sugars and parks it in your liver, your fat cells… and in your muscles, which is the preferred destination. This is why weight resistance exercises are the best for your health. You are creating more bins in your muscles to store glucose. For years now, we have known that sugar feeds cancer cells, but we didn’t know the mechanism used to do this. We now know the enzyme p31k diverts sugar, which was meant to be stored in your muscles, into cancer cells. This is especially true if you are insulin resistant! Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode as he unpacks this discovery. He also teaches on fatty acids and how cancer tumours need this fuel to grow.
