If you’re battling to control your sugar levels, then you are keen to maximize the amount of insulin doing the rounds. Because, more insulin in the circulation, will facilitate more glucose uptake, particularly by muscle cells. But did you know insulin has a fraternal twin ? His name is C-peptide............he is a big contributor to the low grade inflammation that plagues people who are insulin resistant.
Here is the link to the 9 ways to improve deliveries page, mentioned at the end of the video
betterbodychemistry.com/improve-deliveries
In the video, I share how physics helps the red blood cells move through the very narrow blood vessels. It you would like to learn more about how this happens, watch this TED talk on the Fourth phase of water. youtube.com/watch?v=i-T7tCMUDXU
Here is a recap of this video
00:23 C-peptide : insulin’s other half
01:07 C-peptide a piece of junk
02:10 Exchanging oxygen inside capillaries
02:49 Open sesame
03:14 The help yourself endeavour
04:00 The nitric oxide saves the day
04:30 Insulin interferes with these oxygen deliveries
04:58 The phosphodiesterase 3 problem
05:41 The failed rescue by c-peptide
06:10 Time to hit the panic button ?
07:01 C-peptide has insulin’s back
07:31 C-peptide and insulin facing off at border control
07:50 Insulin clearance
08:16 When insulin resists liver clearance
08:45 The ratio of insulin to c-peptide is wrong
09:11 Hypoxia equates with low grade inflammation
09:36 Improving deliveries
10:25 Scientific reference
Enjoy !

Then you might find this video interesting, it looks at how failure to remove insulin efficiently is part of the problem in metabolic syndrome.
