Understanding Blood Pressure and Insulin Resistance
他们告诉你120/80是很好的， 但事实真相是，
这个“正常”标准填满了他们的口袋， 而医生只会说：“再吃一粒药。”
猜猜谁是他们的摇钱树？ 没错，就是你。
如果你在为自己的血压 感到焦虑，
猜猜这会对你的血压 造成什么影响？
让我们来认真谈谈这件事， 我会
告诉你一个小秘密， 以及他们想让你知道的事。
那个上面的数字，
也就是收缩压， 应该是110加上你年龄的一半。
没错，它会随着年龄的增长而上升。
这不需要恐慌，这是正常的生理现象 。
而那个下面的数字， 也就是舒张压，应该在100以下。
如果高于这个数值，
那就意味着你的肾脏和 肝脏在超负荷运转。
说到你的血压， 这两个是最重要的数字。
但让我们仔细看看，因为 接下来的部分很少有人谈及。
高血压真正的 根本原因其实是
一种叫做胰岛素抵抗的现象， 我将向你解释
它究竟是如何起作用的。
每次你吃东西的时候， 你的身体都会释放胰岛素。
胰岛素是让糖分进入的钥匙， 这样你的细胞才能获得能量，
但问题就在这里。
当你吃得太频繁，
吃太多零食、太多碳水，以及 承受巨大的压力时，你的身体就会
整天浸泡在胰岛素中， 而你的细胞，
它们不再听从指令， 并开始产生胰岛素抵抗。
现在你的身体开始产生更多胰岛素， 导致体内的胰岛素严重过剩。
这就是麻烦开始的地方。
过多的胰岛素
会导致身体处于战斗或逃跑状态。
这会导致你的血管收缩， 心率上升，
你的肾脏也开始 滞留盐分和水分。
朋友们，这就是导致高血压的 完美风暴。
血液，但事情并不仅限于此。
持续不断的胰岛素分泌 正是导致身体发炎的原因。
它会刺激你的动脉内膜，
使其变得僵硬、 失去弹性。
现在你的心脏必须更卖力地跳动， 才能维持血液循环。
血压升高，精力耗尽， 但残酷的现实是：
如果不解决胰岛素抵抗， 你就无法根治问题。
因为当你降低胰岛素时，
你的血管就会放松， 并变得更有弹性。
炎症会消退， 血压也开始恢复正常。

They told you that 120 over 80 is good, but here's the truth, that normal is filling up their pockets and you're a doctor, here's another pill. And guess who's the cash cow? That's right, you are. If you're stressed about your blood pressure, guess what that's doing to your blood pressure?
Let's have a real conversation about it and I'll let you in on a little secret and what they want you to know. That top number, systolic, should be 110 plus half your age. That's right, it rises as you age.
It's not a sign to panic, it's physiology. And that bottom number, diastolic, should be under 100. And if it's any higher than that, that means your kidneys and your liver are working overtime. These are the two most important numbers when it comes to your blood pressure.
But let's have a closer look because this next part is not talked about. The actual root cause of high blood pressure is something called insulin resistance and I'm gonna explain to you exactly how it works. Every single time that you have food, your body releases insulin.
Insulin is the key that lets sugar in so that your cells can get energy, but here lies the problem. When you eat too often, too many snacks, too many carbs, and a crazy amount of stress, your body becomes drenched in insulin all day long and your cells,
they stop listening and they become insulin resistant. Now your body starts to produce more insulin and now there's way too much insulin. This is where the trouble starts. Too much insulin causes the body to be in fight or flight.
This causes your blood vessels to constrict, your heart rate climbs, and your kidneys start holding on to salt and water. And that my friends is the perfect storm for high pressure. blood But it doesn't stop there. That constant flow of insulin is what causes inflammation in the body.
It irritates the lining of your arteries, making them stiff, hard, and less flexible. And now your heart has to pump harder and harder just to keep the blood flowing. The pressure rises, your energy tanks, but here's the cold hard truth. Until you fix insulin resistance, you are not fixing the root cause.
Because when you lower insulin, your blood vessels relax and become more flexible. Inflammation comes down and your blood pressure starts to normalize.
