How Hidden Prediabetic Patients are found with Kraft Tests and 5 Major Causes of Insulin Resistance

A large number of patients can prevent the development diabetes by having a Kraft Test. Also known as the Insulin and glucose stimulation test. This is a 3 hour test done here in our blood lab to determine your body’s insulin response to a measured “glucose challenge” (a sugary solution) and return to baseline. At Cardiovascular Interventions we offer our patients this test and if positive guide them with the right diet and lifestyle changes to bring down their insulin resistance levels and reverse the development of diabetes.

I have been a Nurse for going on 31 years now. Most Cardiologist's Endocrinologist's and Internal Medicine Physicians just don't get or understand the underlying disease process that is the cause of almost all chronic disease. Insulin Resistance! I like this Doc!

Before I started IF, low carb meals and now OMAD, I was at 230 lb, high blood pressure 160/100, frequent acid reflux, fatty liver, insomnia and anxiety attacks. I was considered pre-diabetic, although I think I was well in the diabetes range as my insulin must have been very high to keep my glucose at 99. Never had my insulin levels measured (some doctors are useless). Dr. Jamnadas videos opened my eyes. Started fasting, and gradually eased into 18/6 fasting and eventually OMAD with low carb, moderate protein and moderate fat nutrition. Lost 30 lb in 3 months and never felt better in my life. BP is 120/74, normal sleep, 198 lb today and plan to get to 185 for my optimal weight. I will have to check my liver enzymes again, but based on my weight loss and overall energy levels, I am 100% certain that my fatty liver condition is gone. I will maintain this lifestyle as long as I live.
You, sir, are a blessing to humanity.

The background music is the only thing I disliked about this video. It makes it hard to focus on what is being said. I love everything Dr P. j. posts. So informative. Kudos!

[andrieslucian]

Sir, you changed my life. Seriously, I would love to meet you just to say thank you! What are you doing is priceless for people that really are looking to improve their health. I am watching your videos again and again every other week, because after a few weeks it seems like I forget about some stuff and end up starting eating very little bad things that I was used to eat...so I have to remind myself and refresh myself with one of your videos. I am watching this video for probably the 4th time and I'm in tears. Literally from June until September I lost 16kg just but starting eating, consciously, REAL FOOD the first month and then starting intermittent fasting, little by little..and a few times OMAD. Your speeches give me strength and knowledge. BRAVO

[francinelarsen]

We need the RIGHT DOCTOR too!! I'm a nurse, and I find most doctors don't get this. Hey doctors out there. Turn your backs on what they taught you in school, and become a true help to your patients.

*My daughter drinks lots of water and urinates with the same rate, there are no other symptoms to show if those have anything to do with diabetes. This is a good information that I have gone through **Diabets.Care** She is 2 years 9 months, hale and healthy, have not done any blood test. But I am not certain if one can get diabetes at such a tender age. Please I will like to know more on that*

[iwankalinow]

So clear and simple. Within a period of seven years, I pass through two cardiac infarction and five stents. I have no diabetes, BG 5, 5 but, low HDL, high LDL, high triglycerides. And no reasonable answers from all doctors I have visited, what is possible reason for all this cardiac disasters. They don't know, or they don't want to tell?! Any way. I change my life, my food, habits in the direction explained above. And I found my self - finally. So this explanation is just PRICELESS for people with metabolic complications!!! Thanks dr. Jamnadas!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏

[fomcgirl]

This explains why I keep gaining more and more weight around my abdomen yet my blood work remains "normal." Thank you Dr. Jamnadas for this detailed explanation. Your videos are incredibly informative. Please keep posting more on fasting and insulin resistance.

[alokepurohit]

Diabetes is a huge business. It's a lifestyle disorder which can be restored. Good to see a doc say this.

[kandaman]

This was VERY informative!!!
This should be TAUGHT in high schools and universities!!!
A SIMPLE solution to a VERY COMPLEX PROBLEM!!!

[mifnp]

Why we have hyperinsulinemia
1. Eating too frequently
2. Too much sugar/CHOs in diet
3. Excessive fructose in diet (highly processed foods)
4. Liver disease from alcohol
5. Processed foods

I did this test and my insulin fasting was 4.2. After 30 min went to 160 when the range was (6-86) and after 90 min went to 28 when the range was (5-56). My A1C is 4.4. It seems I am a typical example as Dr. said. This doctor is brilliant.

[JamesAlexander]

This video has explained so much to me. Having experienced three operations recently, two for bowel cancer and one for a bleed on the brain, this explanation has convinced me to change my way of life, so that I don’t spend any more time in a hospital. Thank you Doctor.❤️🙏

[houmi]

Thank you so much for your service to us. I have been watching your videos for 3 weeks and I immediately started changing my diet and I am already feeling much better and lost 8 kilos.
You literally saved my life as I was on the brink of self destruction. I can’t thank you enough.❤️

[keithleggett]

Even though this doctor says everyone has to be responsible for their health, this doctor is a VERY good speaker and has huge knowledge on all aspects of health. I have been in the health care system for many years and most of what this doctor says blows out what is still being taught. I have seen all this series videos and feel much more informed, and I am following his advice. Thank you Dr. Jamnadas.

[annasutton]

This doctor is like breath of fresh air. Thank you for explaining in such a clear way. Most doctors just want yo give you medication.

[mrnobody]

Thank you sir
I am taking blood pressure medication for over a year
And I am 24 year old
Doctor says I don't have any medical condition but my mind don't accept it then I found your video following for past 3 months and my god I felt very good mentally and physically
And I will do it till I live
And YOU ""ARE DEFINATION OF REAL DOCTOR""

[mbplayz]

Started following your nutrition advice 30 days ago. Inflammation and brain fog gone. I’ve never felt better. Thanks sir. Oh and stopped 14 pounds as a side effect.

[nurnadiah]
