High blood sugar, whether from excessive carbohydrate intake or other hyperglycemic issues, causes a push towards cholesterol production at the expense of phospholipids (i.e., lecithins). This results in inadequate production of surfactant (a phospholipid lubricant) resulting in asthma, bronchitis, and other respiratory conditions. Again, conditions associated with inadequate surfactant production include:
|
Acne
|
Asthma
|
Emphysema
|
|
Apnea
|
Bronchitis
|
Pneumocystitis
