Tweetable Quotes “I’m laughing because I love to mispronounce this word. I always grew up mispronouncing it and I still do kind of on purpose because it’s the way I used to pronounce it. ‘Quinoa,’ but I like to call it ‘KEN-O-WAH’.”(02:28) (Dr. Brian) “So one of the main issues why high sugar - unintended, so to speak - is that it causes something called AGES, or Advanced Glycation End Products. Now, these are fairly toxic. They’re caused by reactions between sugar and other types of proteins in your body and they are really high on the suspect list for causing some of these problems.”(04:48) (Dr. Brian) “I do want to make one comment about cancer. A lot of people aren’t aware of this. Cancer is also regulated by the immune system.”(06:09) (Dr. Brian) “Just to recap about the rice. If you cool the rice overnight and heat it up the next day and you’re concerned about your blood sugar, then that does help blunt the spike in your blood sugar.”(08:15) (Dr. Brian) Resources Mentioned NCHS Links Mentioned NCHS Footer Powered by FullCast
