The body uses carbohydrates as its main source of energy. But, when you consume too many, they raise blood glucose and trigger the overproduction of insulin. This is because your body converts carbohydrates into glucose more readily than any other food group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your cells are overloaded with elevated insulin for too long, they become less responsive to insulin and absorb even less glucose\u2014a condition called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/peter-attia-insulin-resistance\/\">insulin resistance<\/a>. Insulin resistance directly causes four chronic diseases: heart disease, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases (like Alzheimer\u2019s and dementia), and type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, Attia notes that carbohydrates in moderation are healthful\u2014and <strong>they\u2019re healthful for some people more than others<\/strong>. For instance, although it would be atypical, you may find that cutting carbohydrates out of your diet <em>doesn\u2019t<\/em> help you burn fat or reduce your blood sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: Carbohydrates are particularly healthy for endurance athletes, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5794245\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">who need a high-carb diet<\/a> to maintain their physical performance. Unlike most people, endurance athletes nearly deplete the glycogen stores in their liver and muscles, the human body\u2019s primary source of short-term energy, on a regular basis. To them, carbohydrates are valuable for the same reason they\u2019re unhealthy for others: The body converts them directly into vast amounts of glucose, which can replenish these glycogen stores. Experts assert that most athletes don\u2019t eat <em>enough<\/em> carbohydrates\u2014a 175-pound endurance athlete needs upwards of 3,800 calories every day <em>just from carbs<\/em> to replenish their glycogen.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only way to know for sure how your unique metabolism processes carbohydrates is to experiment with your diet until you\u2019ve found one that helps you reach your health goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help you do this, <strong>Attia recommends using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM)<\/strong>, an implantable device that allows you to stay aware of your blood sugar levels at all times. Spikes in blood glucose after you\u2019ve eaten something high in carbohydrates indicate times when your body will produce extra insulin in response. By observing what quantities of specific foods cause your glucose (and insulin) to spike, you can learn to avoid or reduce your intake of those foods in the future. Over time, this helps you keep your blood glucose low and avoid insulin resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: CGMs are generally <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/diabetes\/blood-sugar-meters-cgms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">slightly less accurate than traditional blood glucose meters<\/a>, which read blood drawn from your finger. This is because they don\u2019t directly measure blood sugar. Rather, they measure the amount of glucose in your body\u2019s <em>interstitial fluid<\/em>\u2014the plasma-like liquid that fills your body outside of your blood vessels\u2014and use that to estimate blood glucose. This inaccuracy makes CGMs more suitable for getting a vague sense of what foods are good for your metabolism rather than determining your exact glucose levels for medical purposes (like helping your doctor know how much supplemental insulin to prescribe).)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are your blood sugar levels?
