Why Some of Us Cannot Lose Weight...It's Our Blood Sugar Response to Food

The idea that we all could benefit from testing our blood glucose levels after eating is central to understanding why some people have such a difficult time losing weight or controlling their blood sugar response.

One of my faithful readers, BK, sent me a facebook link that clearly explains that many of us have different metabolic responses to the same diet.
 
Additionally, the researchers from the Weizman Institute touch on what I believe to be the fundamental cause of the world-wide epidemic of obesity and metabolic disease....the alteration of our microbiome environment, otherwise known as, "dysbiosis." (SP protocol specifically targets this syndrome).

I have spoken about this condition in numerous blogs.  It is caused by repeated antibiotic usage and results in the destruction of our native intestinal flora.  The overgrowth of unhealthy bacteria, causing blood sugar changes leading to metabolic syndrome, gut imbalances, intestinal dysfunction and auto-immune response disruption, is the result. 

Understanding how we as individuals respond to food is only the first step in reversing metabolic syndrome.  We must also rebalance the gut and repopulate our native intestinal flora (food, including yogurt and regular probiotics cannot rebuild the native flora) in order to restore complete blood sugar and intestinal microbiome balance.
