In this video, we're going to talk about fasting and diabetes. I want to cover the fasting effects on a diabetic's eyes.

In a study done on mice, researchers found that fasting had a protective effect on the retina and other nerves. The retina is nerve tissue. They found that fasting improves the microbiome (your friendly bacteria). It causes the microbes to change bile salts to a compound called TUDCA, which then gives protection to your nerves.

If you're a diabetic, you could have problems with the vascular supply to the nerves. The nerves can start to die in the fingertips, toes, eyes, and kidneys. TUDCA counters the damage to the nerves not just in the eyes but in other nerves as well.

What causes this problem originally is the high levels of sugar that a diabetic is living with. Sugar is very corrosive, and it can destroy the nervous system.

When you're fasting, you're cutting out sugar and normalizing your insulin levels. When you fast, your microbes improve.

With fasting your microbes:

• Start to increase the resistance to oxidative stress
• Diversify
• Live longer
• Tolerate pathogens better

Making your microbes stronger can also:

• Help you produce certain byproducts that help your blood sugars and improve insulin resistance
• Make more vitamins
• More immune protection
