Dr Mercola's low insulin theory of foods BUSTED

jeje. Dr Mercola puts a video of a mum eating a high fat animal diet (HFAD). The woman says that her HFAD releases little insulin (as opposed to high carbs). But is that true? NO!!!

This is a scientific study comparing the relase of insulin of various foods. Beef, eggs, bacon, etc, they all release LOTS of insulin. Thus, her theory (and Dr Mercola's) is scientifically busted. Beef releases way more insulin than fruit!

PLEASE look at the end of the study where it shows the graph comparing various foods. BEEF is the WORST by far.

Beef 1600

See more for yourself. Don't follow self proclaim experts.
