P90X Helps Man Reverse Insulin Intake

I recently came across an article where a man named, Jason, used P90X and other programs to reverse insulin intake. That is impressive because Jason used to given himself about 35 insulin injections or more a week. He did this for 5 years. That’s a lot of shots!

I know my father has been dependent on insulin shots for years and uses something called an epi pen. I am not sure how often he uses it, but I will say that the frequency has dramatically dropped due to the same things that Jason has been doing. He has tried for years to reverse insulin intake.

Reverse Insulin Intake – What Is Insulin For?

The way I understand it is, normally, food gets absorbed into the bloodstream. It is in the form of a sugar called glucose. The pancreas gets a signal to start making insulin (a hormone) when it detects a boost in sugar levels. So, insulin piggybacks onto cells and takes away the sugar from the bloodstream. This makes the sugar ready to be used for energy! Energy is good! It gives us fuel like a car!

If the body is in a state that isn’t making insulin effectively, shots are a great way to get the needed insulin to help balance the blood sugar and make good use of the glucose for energy.

Reverse Insulin Intake – Jason’s Story With Taking Shots

I’m sure it’s an inconvenience to give one’s self injections. Especially 9,100+ injections over a 5 year period! I know for my dad, he needs to excuse himself from time to time to give himself an injection.

So, here’s Jason. A guy who has taken a boatload of shots and decided to lose weight. I’m not sure if he was just wanting to lose weight or make an impact on the need for insulin injections, but he ended up making an impact on both! And would you believe his solution was simple. Wait for it…. yep, diet and exercise. And I don’t mean going on a diet. I mean changing his eating habits permanently. That’s the way to reverse insulin intake!

Reverse Insulin Intake – Jason’s Solution

He lost 35 pounds doing programs like P90X, Insanity and P90X2. That certainly is impressive! The big wow factor was that he reduced the need for his insulin injections that he had to take each week! He dropped that number down to about 7 a week! That is a huge difference! And 80% decrease!

Reverse Insulin Intake – A Consistent Plan

It’s simply incredible what a few, consistent, healthy life changes can make to reverse insulin intake. Not only does Jason look awesome, but he feels great and isn’t as dependent on having to have shots for his insulin. No doubt it took hard work to push play on the DVD player to get his workouts done in the convenience of his own home. Following the nutrition plans were key as well!

Reverse Insulin Intake – Jason’s Why

The biggest “why” Jason turned to adopting a healthy lifestyle was the birth of his baby boy. No doubt, Jason will be an awesome dad who leads by setting a great example on the importance of health and fitness!

Your turn! Tell, me. What is your “why?” Why do you want to be healthy and fit?
