Hi Dr Ekberg, I've watched your videos on and off for a while now, even did an attempt at doing Keto after binge watching your videos for a while (lasted 2 or 3 months, but couldn't keep it up as it was too difficult socially). One thing that I find so incredibly difficult when trying to incorporate the excellent knowledge that you disperse through your videos, is figuring out what to actually eat. I'm a former lifelong vegetarian (now pescatarian as my body does accept fish), which of course is already limiting. Could you do a video about healthy options that I actually CAN eat and drink that is not too unhealthy? I've bought a Sodastream which I use to make sparkling water (which definitely helps me to drink more water and cut down on alcoholic/sugary/caffeinated drinks), but I'm having a hard time figuring out what to eat and drink instead of all the bad options in the supermarket (or restaurants for that matter). There's so many things that are unhealthy going by your videos that I walk through the supermarket/grocery store and practically don't see any options that I can consume! Life is too boring when all I can drink is water, and I'm completely lost at this point regarding what I can actually eat. No bread, no pizza, no pasta, no pastries, no sodas, no alcohol, no fruit beverages and not too much fruit... what's left beyond sushi? Thanks for your great content!
Got a message from the state of California saying that an inexpensive way of eating is by purchasing fruit and vegetables that are in season. The government makes life too expensive to live. The government will give you advice like go and eat the bugs.
@@crazymonkeyVII For a vegetarian (even more so when you are a vegan) it is not too easy. I converted to this: I skip breakfast (intermittent fasting), My lunch or brunch: Yoghurt , Kefirwith strawberries, blackberries, or other berries. Sunflower or hemp seeds, a few spoons of wheat germ, and I mix it with healthy fat like olive oil, cod liver with its own oil or tasteless fish oil high in EPA and DHA. I admit I eat way more red meat than before and in some days it is my only meal. But you can get grilled vegetables or other vegetables. Eat plenty of organic eggs. Boiled or fried sunny side up, or make an English breakfast. But personally I absolutely would avoid being a vegan or vegetarian, healthwise, both for your own health and that of the earth...

You are a god sent lol. I like the Dr but he talks very slow which makes me a bit sleepy even when I speed it up 1.25 times which is the fastest Im able to comprehend him
Insulin, insulin resistance etc have always been a big nebulous cloud of confusion to me. Dr. Sten is the first person to ever make it make sense to me. I can't thank you enough Dr. Sten. I have felt guilty since childhood that I was overweight and couldn't control my overeating. You cannot imagine the thousands of ppl you have helped in the first 5 minutes of this video. Bless you sir. I've been doing Keto for a few weeks now and I already feel so much better and in so much more control of what I eat. Thank you ❤
To anyone feeling discouraged on their weight loss journey, know that you're not alone. Countless others have walked this path and emerged stronger, healthier, and more confident. You can do it too! Keep moving forward, and don't give up🔥💪
I am crying right now. I am 52 and I have never been told that most of these foods were horrible for my diet. I have NAFLD. I am morbidly obese. I struggle to lose weight and I eat several things on this list. I am proud to say that I never drink coffee, soda, or energy drinks. It does appear that ice tea is now off my list as well. Tears. Big emotional tears. Thank you for explaining it. This will help me and friends I know that also struggle to lose weight.
I have none of your weight problems but I decided to eat healthy and did research before I decided on One Meal A Day. It works very well. It’s a change of lifestyle. The research wa important because I knew what to expect. He’s from Sweden like me.
I hope you're not crying anymore. I just read your comment and I need to tell you that you can change, it's really possible to lose weight following a Ketogenic diet with discipline. Listen to Doctor Ekberg and other doctors about Keto, take the decision to do it and find a friend or a relative to help you. If you cannot find anybody to help you; youtube videos like this one can help you a lot. I have been listening to Dr. EKBERG and Dr. Berg for 7 years now and their Knowledge have changed my life.
You can do it! make the decision to change and don’t waiver! You are more aware and now empowered to make the changes necessary. I’m rooting for you! It will be so exciting to see the positive changes, even if it a small ones. Celebrate each step of the way!!!
It is never being too late, start cutting those down, stick with health foods based on Dr. Sten Ekberg's videos, may be try to start IF, I am doing IF now to to lose weight and stay healthy. I know you can do it!
You know why he will never get it? Because he says weight doesnt matter and it does there are enough studies proofing that he iw rong with his statement. Be overweight with normal sugar, insuline and so on values will increase your risk of a heart attack by around 28 percent. Source scientificamerican
This mam doesn't try to convince you, he explains the science and you convince yourself! That's why I've been a fanatic fan since 2020... You changed my life forever sir. I owe you my health which is the most important thing to me.
@@buckmurdock2500 peer review process require you to submit your paper to a journal. He doesn't have a personal body of work for review, he takes existing works and presents them in a 'simplified' way (search NCBI for NBK545201 as an example). You can look up every point he's mentioned and you'll see works for and against them. The issues are usually methodology of the research. An example is that most research against saturated fat have their sample groups consuming copious amounts of carbs (see NCBI PMC8092457 ) with it and aren't done with individuals who are 'low carb' or in ketosis. It's only recently that these tests are being done with proper methods. (see NCBI 34796724, 34717669). As far as I can infer, reduction diets generally help, especially actions taken to prevent insulin resistance and processed seed oils and excess chemicals in foods aren't beneficial.
@@buckmurdock2500the science that he referred to has been peer reviewed. Try his suggestions, and see for yourself if it works or not. For me, it’s simple. Anything that contains sugar is bad for you. It’s not rocket science, either.
Yup. I ordered breakfast this morning at the hotel restaurant and didn't include toast, which I normally load up with jam. Hard. I love toast and jam. And oatmeal with brown sugar or honey.
I've heard the term 'insulin resistance' all my adult life (I'm 69) but I never understood what it means in relation to blood chemistry. Your graph at about 6:00 has made all the difference. Thank you so much for the info. A simple graph makes it so clear.
The use of the see-through glass board, then flipping the image (lateral mirror image) (while standing in front of a flat screen?) to see what Eckberg is writing is really wonderful. It's a good illustration of how traditional methods (handwriting) are often nicer than more "digital" ones.
I love tomato soep so I was shocked until I realise you mean canned tomato soep. I make it from scratch, use fresh tomatoes and don’t add any sugar whatsoever. I was amazed to discover that all fresh bread in the USA is sweet. I live in the Netherlands where our bread has no added sugar so to me the American bread tasted awful.
Abstinence is the only thing that has really helped me with these foods so far. "Special occasions" and eating these foods in "moderation" to people please has derailed me time and time again.
@@kalnwi2023 Oh, absolutely. I've come to understand that food is simply the ground zero addiction for me. I'm still a coffee drinker until noon, but I've given up cigarettes.
Same here. I'm a 4 year ketovore and the only times I start eating crap is when I've had a 'taste' to placate family and friends. I now know I'm a carb addict and must stay away.
Yes, that is very individual. I can have cheat days (not often, and not going crazy!), and in fact if I don't, I'll get back to bad habits very quickly, while others have to completely stop. Perhaps loosely related to what makes some people become alcoholics while others don't?
Thank-you for all the information you give us; I've been a fan since 2020. I've been eating your recommendations, along with fasting, and it gets easier over time. It's amazing to me how a small handful of berries thrown in full fat cottage cheese is now a rare desert that satisfies my sweet tooth for weeks. 60 years old with no health problems.
Me too, 69 here and super healthy. But I must say that even adding a bit of whole fruit and dairy is a slippery slope for me - it kicks in my cravings big time. I'm avoiding dairy entirely because it's a trigger and makes me depressed. Eventually when I lose the last 20 and have a firm diet routine I'll try reintroducing the fruit I grow in my own yard (figs, pears, tart cherries, apples, blueberries). Sad I can't eat them right now but meanwhile my canned fruit makes nice gifts.

I'm currently in Asia and I decided to read my Asian friend's blood sugar one hour after she ate about four to five cups of white rice. I was astonished with the results! Her blood sugar was only 106dl 😮 where as if I had the same amount of rice my blood sugar would have been 250-300 dl. I've already lost one eye behind chronic metabolic dysfunction (uveitis, iritis, high blood sugar, fatty liver related). I don't wanna lose another one. I used to be healthier than a horse according to my younger charts. I unknowingly ate my way into this state, one buffet at a time, followed by bad diet advice. This doctor has literally guided me into the light. All that he has said so far has been the absolute TRUTH 🙏
Did you look into the racial components more? I’m curious if it’s genetic or is it just that you’re not in the best shape and hopefully once you get healthier you’ll have the same resistance as her?
@@dmicah3960Chinese have been eating rice for about 10,000 years - more or less. Their body is perfectly capable therefore to prevent big blood sugar spikes from rice naturally. Genetics play a huge role in determining how our body reacts to various food groups. Europeans or americans couldn't handle well that much rice.
@@dmicah3960I think Asian body composition is different. But diets and exercise are important too. Asians are not fat, mostly thin and small, but many are sick because of the foods they eat that added dangerous chemicals like msg and other addictive to make food taste good. I am myself Asian and try my best not to eat at Asian restaurants,they are all using msg.
Hello Dr. Ekberg. Im 52 years old and have been an athlete since the age of 8. Unfortunately I never learned enough about nutrition so I lost control in my 40s .I have been practicing an 18:6 fast and I have gone from 195 to 168 in approximately 60 days. My goal is 150. Your videos are very insightful and I am getting a good handle on knowing what to ingest and when to do it. Your material is excellent and I intend on helping others going forward as I continue to progress in this new endeavor which will help manage my health and life quality.
I'm one of those people who can't eat grains or sugar. If I do, all I want to do is eat. I agree about the tomato soup. I thought my favorite tomato soup was so healthy...until I quit eating sugar. When I had some of my soup, it was so sweet I couldn't eat it. Only then did I look at the ingredients and found sugar in the middle of the list. And now when I look at ingredients I find sugar in almost everything. I have pretty much quit processed foods. I bought some bite sized frittatas which didn't have grains or sugar but I still found myself craving them after eating one or two. I don't know what the food corporations put in the food to cause this but I know they do it on purpose. The more we eat the more we have to buy from them.
I only eat Organic grass fed, free range chicken & eggs, low carb vegetables, plant based cheese & sour cream, purified water, tea, flavored water, and organic coffee. I don’t even look at packaged foods anymore. No grains, no nuts, no fruit, no dairy, etc. I do purchase primal kitchen mayo and ketchup. Learned how bad High fructose corn syrup is from Dr. Weil years ago. Also years ago stopped consuming anything hydrolyzed. I do the intermediate fasting. I do not over stuff myself. My BMI is in the lower normal range. My weight hasn’t changed EVER but I do still have this fat around my gut. 😡 Oh and I do walk almost every day weather permitting. For those days I can’t get out I have a rowing machine. Last A1c test showed 5.8 The best control I had over my gut and blood sugars when I went on a carnivore diet. So I’m going to go back to that, and stop listening to Doctor telling me I’m gonna die if I don’t eat vegetables.
It’s monosodium glutamate that nearly all food processors put in their foods. Also goes by many other names, like Hydrolyzed protein, etc. In all packages foods for the most part. And yes, they know exactly what they’re doing! Dr. Ekberg has stated this in other videos.
You've made some very valid and important points. Food companies add sugar because people like sugary foods and they will keep buying, making more profits. Eat wholefoods and reduce significantly any processed foods. Actually, almost everything contains sugar, but naturally occurring sugars, such as in fruit and vegetables and nuts, are much less damaging, and indeed in UK people are encouraged to eat more of these foods
@@afa1554 The same, I was thinking how is tomato soup unhealthy, the video is a misleading.Nothing wrong with "tomato soup". The issue is store bought soup in a can that adds loads of sugar. Actual tomato soup is fine - I cannot even think why you would add sugar to it!
Is just a liar...many studies proofed that obese is not healthy and weight matters. Even todays culture does not wamt to see it because its not fair for fat people.
At 78 years of age, I fully agree with this video, from experience! Now that I know what to avoid, I’m in much better shape, and feel great! I’m sharing this video with the ones I love ❤️
Sten Ekberg goes into such detail of understanding that he is now my favorite keto master to follow. The other one with the name that sounds similar to his own is great and all but I never would have learned these things from anyone else.
Great video Dr. Ekberg! I like how your explanations are so thorough, and easy to understand! It really helps me so much, and I know I'm not the only one who feels that way! Thank you for caring about people's good health! Have a Happy Friday!
I am glad to be able to understand how you break down the why's and causes of the list. Giving me the knowledge to better myself. Just having the list without explanation doesn't seem to help me at all.
hands down one of the top 5 doctors on youtube no matter how you look at it! so valuable and finally explained in a way that doesn't make you lose train of thought
This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely. 👍👍👍
I can't tell you how many medical doctors got it wrong on nutrition. Our food is what's making us sick especially sugar, gluten, GMO, and processed. Ask yourself why are Dorito chips and most US snacks banned in Europe and other countries. Even they know our FDA is corrupt
Except that he brings bad news for people. At this point btwn 5 health channels, you can't eat ANYTHING without it being negative impact. Gundry, Berg,DeIauer, Berry . I just watched one Dr. warning about turmeric w/ pepper - pepper bad, absorb too much curcumin, bad for organs. There's something wrong with everything. I'm great with this list till you get to tomato soup, fruit & condiments :/
Im only starting at number nine in the video, but I have to say, Dr. Sten Ekberg is a true champion. Doctor of the People. Chasing truth and educating us! (For free!) Thank you so much! Love from Norway!
no it's not. you have eyes. read the labels. there's no sugar added heinz ketchup and king arthur carb conscious pancake mix, sugar free maple syrup, and no sugar ice cream like breyers carb smart and diet soda. and stop eating canned tomato soups loaded with sugar. make tomato soup from...gasp...tomatoes.
I just had tiramisu, it was delcious. I have it once a year (my birthday). And yes, I wanted more sugar. Sugar is definitely addicting. Luckily, I have discipline and only have a dessert once a year.
100% attest to the addictive quality of sugars - if it is in the house, I will hunt it down. the trick is keeping it out of the house, but also it has helped by understanding this tendency in myself.
This is the list of my 10 fav foods : D Thank God I came here early enough, so I can change my diet gradually as I`m in my 30`s with any serious health issues 🙏
Thank you - I needed to hear this today. I know these are bad but I sometimes veer off to that proverbial slippery slope and the cumulative impact is dangerous. Please keep posting and I’ll keep watching ❤
All of us find it difficult… not be naughty but nice. ❤ It’s Christmas soon , so be a good boy. Santa will know. Do you know he is a Christmas baby? It’s soon his birthday. ❤
I have to admit I had a start when you said, "Fruit," but thank goodness you explained, LOL! We grow our own blueberries and apples, too, so I eat apples with tahini for the protein and fat to suppress the sugar spike. I *used to eat **_everything_* on that list; no wonder I wrecked my immune system. *After a year of fasting and clean eating (nothing on that list!) I'm 90% recovered and only have a couple of food sensitivities now (yeast, flax, eggs, processed cow's milk).*
Just be aware and moderation. I worked for an organic farm CSA for many years. I got paid in fruits and veggies and would dehydrate and freeze to be able to maximize my "pay" through out the year. I was not eating fast food. I was not drinking sugar soda. I was not eating candy bars and cookies and junk food. Then my A1C spiked and I came to realize I was insulin resistant, NAFLD all when I thought I was being healthy.
@@dionisiatsafos3655 you can eat whatever you like. If you choose to prioritize metabolic health I’d recommend getting your fasting INSULIN tested and look at how it trends. Ideally you’d want your levels to be between (2-6). If over 25 you are diabetic. In normal American medicine no one tests this and make sure they are aware you mean insulin and are not meaning glucose. Fructose doesn’t show on A1C or CGM. You could be doing long term damage while thinking you’re healthy.
Starbucks has made freaking billion$ off of what amounts to caffeinated milkshakes. And underneath it all, their actual coffee is fairly mediocre. It's all about the sugary toppings.
I learn so much from you. I avoid sugar, grains like the plague, keep carbs to moderate level, and am still pre diabetic. Trying to eat carbs now with some protein, fat, fiber like you recommend.
If you are pre diabetic you should consume NO carbs if you ever want a chance to become insulin sensitive again. At this point that's about what it would take. Add some intermittent fasting too. You need Keto therapy I'm afraid.
Cut out carbs. No bread tortillas tacos pretzels rice quinoa oatmeal. No pizza. No potatoes. No box cereals. It's a challenge, no doubt, in this carb culture we live.
I love the way Dr Ekberg speaks, he doesn't sugar coat it, excuse the pun, and everything makes sense and can be cross checked. He puts it in a straightforward way and does not sensationalize his language like so many 'experts' on YT. He spells it out without condescension. This lifestyle is so easy to maintain, and shop for, now i avoid so many isle in the supermarket its great. Haven't felt hungry yet...😁
Great video Dr Ekberg. I have already learned all that you’ve stated and try to follow your teachings. It’s a terrible thing how these companies just want to keep feeding the nation “Sugar and other unhealthy products” just to keep making money for themselves. Thank You for your videos and concern to help us become better healthier people.
I wish there was some form of regulation on how much sugar can be used in products… it is detrimental to humans and costing the World Health billions of dollars in health care…. I saw the other day Sprite is now making a sugar free Lemonade but it has caffeine added! Really ridiculous!
I had a panic when I saw tomato soup as I make my own all the time! However, it's all the processed foods! The only products on this list I eat are fruits such as apples and pears then ancient grains such as millet, amaranth and quinoa. Don't eat from tins and packets anymore!
I quit all sugar years ago and I read labels. I noticed that sugar was the first ingredients in ketchup so I started making my own (recipes on the internet). Then I found Primal Kitchen ketchup. It has zero sugar or sweeteners and tastes so much better than regular ketchup. Regular ketchup tastes sickeningly sweet to me.
Thank You @ibartucz1057 so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel, and for helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
Ew ketchup. My nephew loves ketchup. He told me it’s good for him because it is tomatoes. I said really? Let’s read the ingredients. He waited for the tomatoes in the list. It was the last thing and he asked me if it is still good for him with all the other stuff? Hahaha he is only 7. People just need to be educated
The only reason I eat fries , we all have different tastes, I hate alcohol and have no problem resisting it, but sugar , Now that is when I struggle. Easy for someone that dislikes something to tell someone else to not like it, but it’s easy for them.
I ate WAY more when I was thin. When I turned 60 gained so much weight without changing anything. So now I have to seriously low-carb and make sure I work out every day. Losing the weight is very slow going.
I ate all of these in my 10-30's. Compound that with skipping meals and sedentary lifestyle. I'm now 33 without a gallbladder. It had empyema and was a Merezzi type. Too late for my poor gallbladder but I can still save my liver! I'm like a baby all over again as it looks like everything I know from nutrition from my medical background is wrong, or at least half-truths. Your videos help me get a more informed opinion on what I should do about my own body. Thank you so much for your videos,
Brilliant clarity on all the nutrition nuances! I used to eat a muffin or scone every day for breakfast with a large cup of coffee with 3 spoons of regular sugar. Now I'm on a keto diet with intermittent fasting and skip breakfast altogether and am healthier than ever in my mid 50s.
Same and same age. I never would have believed that I'd have coffee in the a.m and not be hungry for real food until the afternoon. It's not at all that I'm wanting to eat and trying to deny myself. I have zero interest in food. Before if I had errands to run I'd be thinking I need to eat before and maybe bring snacks or prepare to eat out and now I'm shocked by how little I need to eat to be stable, full energy and no ups and downs no longer desperate for afternoon naps.
Hey Doc, totally unrelated but could you please do a video SOON about how a person can best plan for an operation with full narcose? I‘m thinking of these diff. bulletpoints: 1-Talking to the doctor/hospital about my diet & that I do not want any sugar or any unnecessary meds 2-Fasting before & after the OP, maybe extended fasting 3-Possibly donating my own blood, that I definitely do not want anybody else’s blood 4-Suppliments and/or electrolytes to take before and after the OP 5-Anything else you might advise. Thank you in advance 🙏 Hope you decide to research this, I‘ve heard autophagy is very helpful for healing. I‘m just worried they will inject me with something that will effect me adversely, especially because I‘ve been Clean Keto over 6 yrs
A major problem with store-bought tomato soup (and many other soups) is the salt content. In addition to putting a lot of sugar or corn syrup in, they add lots of salt. The salt will cause dehydration & also water-retention.
As someone with type one diabetes for 40 years and chronic Lyme disease, these are precisely the things I have been avoiding for a long time. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for your detailed explanation.
Dr. Ekbert, you are the man. Can you please make a video for those of us that have dropped the weight but are still insulin resistant but want to keep doing intermittent fasting and keep our weight or maybe gain a few pounds because we have dropped too much but still keep trying to drop the insulin resistance? I've been buying tallow at the store because someone suggested to bring the fats up but it's not grass fed tallow. I'm afraid I'm doing it wrong. I was adding a small amount of rice but i stopped because I want to fix my insulin resistance. I'm begging you, please. Thanks so much for what you do.
Thank you so much for your wonderful recipe and for helping us take care of our health. Wishing everyone who is watching this video always healthy, peaceful, and happy❤
I didn't see Fruit Smoothies on this list, but I would put Fruit Smoothies on the "Soda" list #1 Worst Violators. There were things in here I hadn't even thought of yet, so thank you, Dr. Ekberg!! Always thoughtful, educational information in a well-presented platform. I recommend you to friends and strangers all the time!
I've told coworkers and people in the grocery store about your 3x Deadlier than Cancer and Most People Don't Know They Have It (IR) Video to over 30 people since I first saw it in 2020. I turned 50 years old June 2020 and knew I had to change, because I was on the way to Diabetes because I did a slow creep over 20 years, up to 6.0 A1C. I believe you Saved My Life. I have been at 5.3 to 5.4 A1C for almost 3 years, which means that I am avoiding damage to my internal organs!! Thank you, @DrStenEkberg!!
I love tomato soup, or tomato stuff. But it is not very hard to make yourself, i mostly use fresh tomatoes and make soup or sauce out of them with spices, at least salt i love tomato with salt
@@CatsLilaSalemtomatoes have lycopene which is supposed to be very good for prostrate but has to be cooked with some type of healthy fat mostly olive oil
Great explanation of the food Americans eat with very little understanding of what it's doing to your body. I was reminded of the very sad early death of a young girl. A 21-year-old woman with a heart condition is dead after consuming a heavily caffeinated energy drink at Panera Bread that she may have believed was regular lemonade,
My grandparents lived to over 100, and 91. They ate everything in moderation. Food then was real food though. Now the grocery store is 80 percent fake, processed, radiated food.
Although you didn't highlight in detail humans are really poor at differentiating real-hunger from thirst and will often eat when they just need water. Sadly the fast-food choices are never salad (laden with water) and often carb-based thus creating a desire for more water that is given more food. The lesson I applied when re-learning about food has been drink more water and treat a bulk of manufactured food items as not-fit-for-human-consumption. Have great weekend Dr Ekberg.
Yeah, if I'm stuck somewhere and haven't had food all day, I usually go for diet soda and a lettuce wrapped A&W burger. It's not the best, but it's liquid without sugar, and protein and fatty acids from grass fed cows.. could do much worse.
One of the best videos in explaining the basics of insulin. This should be taught in High School so we understand how it works. While people are familiar with the word insulin and may relate it to diabetes, people have no idea what it is and how it works. I think understanding this makes choices of what to eat easier. You find out that you ARE really in control if you understand it.
@travismorse4762 I think it's pretty obvious that I consider it a bad thing. Who uses " authoritarian" in a positive context? Don't try gas- lighting me. I can smell it miles away.
I eat organic, steamed vegetables most meals including breakfast. I use vegan mayo, organic tahini, olive oil, etc. I also include hemp and flax seeds. I also eat a soft-cooked egg for breakfast. I make bread with coconut/almond flour. I put in spices, nuts, seeds and sometimes Lily's 55% dark chocolate chips. Plenty of RUclips recipes.
The only grain I use is organic sprouted oatmeal, and I use lots of water and make it thin and do not add milk or sugar. Then I limit it to one cup of the finished product. I do add powdered cinnamon and ginger root. I know that sounds awful but I enjoy it.
I am starting my venture into weight loss. No doubt, sugar will be hardest to cut. Hopefully, sugar substitute in coffee will be ok. This guy is great. Learning so much.
Dr. Ekberg, you may have already addressed my questions in another video which I haven’t seen. What is your view on sugar substitutes such as Stevia, etc and what is your view on glycemic index eating plans? Thank you.
Willpower is been a major part of my 67 years. Needed on weight loss diets. Now I’ve discovered a way of eat that eliminates willpower and cravings. No carbs, no alcohol, no highly processed food. Perfect for me.
Since November 30 2023, I've changed the way I eat and what I eat. I've been cooking more instead of going out, choosing healthier foods and portion control. I've lost 10 pounds. Planning meals and logging the food I eat are the things that have been working for me.
I've used Dr. Sten Ekberg's intermittent fasting video, and I lost 10 lbs. Of course, I also exercised daily doing strength training and cardio simultaneously. I feel much better these days.
Hi again from Sweden . This time I am curious about the glykogen stores. Can the body only make them from glukos or can it convert something else into glykogen if the stores need a refill? Have a great day 😊
I'm suspicious of these sparkling flavored waters that are becoming so popular. Since they apparently contain nothing but water and natural flavoring, but nothing is shown on the ingredients list, I suspect they are 'rounding down' this natural flavor. I've heard elsewhere that natural flavor could be glutamate based, like a derivative of aspartame or MSG. So how would we find out what these so-called natural flavors are?

Hi Dr Ekberg, I've watched your videos on and off for a while now, even did an attempt at doing Keto after binge watching your videos for a while (lasted 2 or 3 months, but couldn't keep it up as it was too difficult socially). One thing that I find so incredibly difficult when trying to incorporate the excellent knowledge that you disperse through your videos, is figuring out what to actually eat. I'm a former lifelong vegetarian (now pescatarian as my body does accept fish), which of course is already limiting. Could you do a video about healthy options that I actually CAN eat and drink that is not too unhealthy? I've bought a Sodastream which I use to make sparkling water (which definitely helps me to drink more water and cut down on alcoholic/sugary/caffeinated drinks), but I'm having a hard time figuring out what to eat and drink instead of all the bad options in the supermarket (or restaurants for that matter). There's so many things that are unhealthy going by your videos that I walk through the supermarket/grocery store and practically don't see any options that I can consume! Life is too boring when all I can drink is water, and I'm completely lost at this point regarding what I can actually eat. No bread, no pizza, no pasta, no pastries, no sodas, no alcohol, no fruit beverages and not too much fruit... what's left beyond sushi? Thanks for your great content!
Hello, Thank you so much for your videos. Just found you a few days ago and I'm binging. I was wondering if All Bran cereal is ok? Thank you again.
Got a message from the state of California saying that an inexpensive way of eating is by purchasing fruit and vegetables that are in season. The government makes life too expensive to live. The government will give you advice like go and eat the bugs.
@@crazymonkeyVII😅😊😢
@@crazymonkeyVII For a vegetarian (even more so when you are a vegan) it is not too easy.
I converted to this:
I skip breakfast (intermittent fasting),
My lunch or brunch: Yoghurt , Kefirwith strawberries, blackberries, or other berries. Sunflower or hemp seeds, a few spoons of wheat germ, and I mix it with healthy fat like olive oil, cod liver with its own oil or tasteless fish oil high in EPA and DHA.
I admit I eat way more red meat than before and in some days it is my only meal.
But you can get grilled vegetables or other vegetables.
Eat plenty of organic eggs. Boiled or fried sunny side up, or make an English breakfast.
But personally I absolutely would avoid being a vegan or vegetarian, healthwise, both for your own health and that of the earth...

Thank you 🙏
Thank you
Thank you! Sometimes the videos r 2 long 2 finish❤
You are a god sent lol. I like the Dr but he talks very slow which makes me a bit sleepy even when I speed it up 1.25 times which is the fastest Im able to comprehend him
Insulin, insulin resistance etc have always been a big nebulous cloud of confusion to me. Dr. Sten is the first person to ever make it make sense to me. I can't thank you enough Dr. Sten. I have felt guilty since childhood that I was overweight and couldn't control my overeating. You cannot imagine the thousands of ppl you have helped in the first 5 minutes of this video. Bless you sir. I've been doing Keto for a few weeks now and I already feel so much better and in so much more control of what I eat. Thank you ❤

To anyone feeling discouraged on their weight loss journey, know that you're not alone. Countless others have walked this path and emerged stronger, healthier, and more confident. You can do it too! Keep moving forward, and don't give up🔥💪
Thank you
@@KaliBahayKubowe all yo-yo a little
I am crying right now. I am 52 and I have never been told that most of these foods were horrible for my diet. I have NAFLD. I am morbidly obese. I struggle to lose weight and I eat several things on this list. I am proud to say that I never drink coffee, soda, or energy drinks. It does appear that ice tea is now off my list as well. Tears. Big emotional tears. Thank you for explaining it. This will help me and friends I know that also struggle to lose weight.
I have none of your weight problems but I decided to eat healthy and did research before I decided on One Meal A Day. It works very well. It’s a change of lifestyle. The research wa important because I knew what to expect. He’s from Sweden like me.
I hope you're not crying anymore. I just read your comment and I need to tell you that you can change, it's really possible to lose weight following a Ketogenic diet with discipline. Listen to Doctor Ekberg and other doctors about Keto, take the decision to do it and find a friend or a relative to help you. If you cannot find anybody to help you; youtube videos like this one can help you a lot. I have been listening to Dr. EKBERG and Dr. Berg for 7 years now and their Knowledge have changed my life.
You can do it! make the decision to change and don’t waiver! You are more aware and now empowered to make the changes necessary. I’m rooting for you! It will be so exciting to see the positive changes, even if it a small ones. Celebrate each step of the way!!!
It is never being too late, start cutting those down, stick with health foods based on Dr. Sten Ekberg's videos, may be try to start IF, I am doing IF now to to lose weight and stay healthy. I know you can do it!
Try intermittent fasting and watch Dr Mindy Peltz channel
You deserve a Nobel prize for this valuable information and making it accessible. If only more people could see this video.
You know why he will never get it? Because he says weight doesnt matter and it does there are enough studies proofing that he iw rong with his statement. Be overweight with normal sugar, insuline and so on values will increase your risk of a heart attack by around 28 percent. Source scientificamerican
This mam doesn't try to convince you, he explains the science and you convince yourself!
That's why I've been a fanatic fan since 2020...
You changed my life forever sir. I owe you my health which is the most important thing to me.
he explains the science that he made up to fool gullible people. Where are all the peer reviews of this work?
@@buckmurdock2500 peer review process require you to submit your paper to a journal. He doesn't have a personal body of work for review, he takes existing works and presents them in a 'simplified' way (search NCBI for NBK545201 as an example). You can look up every point he's mentioned and you'll see works for and against them. The issues are usually methodology of the research. An example is that most research against saturated fat have their sample groups consuming copious amounts of carbs (see NCBI PMC8092457 ) with it and aren't done with individuals who are 'low carb' or in ketosis. It's only recently that these tests are being done with proper methods. (see NCBI 34796724, 34717669). As far as I can infer, reduction diets generally help, especially actions taken to prevent insulin resistance and processed seed oils and excess chemicals in foods aren't beneficial.
@@buckmurdock2500 Try the testimonies of the commenters. I've lost over 20 kg because of this man, and I love him for it.
@@buckmurdock2500the science that he referred to has been peer reviewed.
Try his suggestions, and see for yourself if it works or not. For me, it’s simple. Anything that contains sugar is bad for you. It’s not rocket science, either.
He explains the ‘propaganda’. There, fixed it for ya.
Sugar addiction. I hate it.
A very gradual sugar reduction over 3 months works wonders!!!🎉😂❤.
You won't even notice it.😅😊.Good luck.
Obviously you don't hate it enough.
I really don't understand all you weak willed, undiciplined folks.
Me too. 😢
Yup. I ordered breakfast this morning at the hotel restaurant and didn't include toast, which I normally load up with jam.
Hard. I love toast and jam. And oatmeal with brown sugar or honey.
Me too!! Especially if I get stressed.
I've heard the term 'insulin resistance' all my adult life (I'm 69) but I never understood what it means in relation to blood chemistry. Your graph at about 6:00 has made all the difference. Thank you so much for the info. A simple graph makes it so clear.
The use of the see-through glass board, then flipping the image (lateral mirror image) (while standing in front of a flat screen?) to see what Eckberg is writing is really wonderful.
It's a good illustration of how traditional methods (handwriting) are often nicer than more "digital" ones.
I love tomato soep so I was shocked until I realise you mean canned tomato soep. I make it from scratch, use fresh tomatoes and don’t add any sugar whatsoever. I was amazed to discover that all fresh bread in the USA is sweet. I live in the Netherlands where our bread has no added sugar so to me the American bread tasted awful.
Oh gush
Hello 👋 beautiful lady 🌹, how are you and the weather condition like today ?
Ein starker Grund nicht nach Amerika zu fahren , sind die Lebensmittel dort
You can still eat tomato soup but make it yourself without any sugar. It tastes so much more amazingly delicious that way anyway!
I have to make my own bread to get anything close to what I ate in Germany.
Why do I need to learn chemistry? I don't want a whole book. I just want a very simple solution that really works.
Abstinence is the only thing that has really helped me with these foods so far. "Special occasions" and eating these foods in "moderation" to people please has derailed me time and time again.
I have come to realize sugar,carbs, whatever ya wanna call it..i'm an addict. As a former smoker I should have recognized that sooner .
@@kalnwi2023 Oh, absolutely. I've come to understand that food is simply the ground zero addiction for me. I'm still a coffee drinker until noon, but I've given up cigarettes.
Same here. I'm a 4 year ketovore and the only times I start eating crap is when I've had a 'taste' to placate family and friends. I now know I'm a carb addict and must stay away.
Yes, that is very individual. I can have cheat days (not often, and not going crazy!), and in fact if I don't, I'll get back to bad habits very quickly, while others have to completely stop. Perhaps loosely related to what makes some people become alcoholics while others don't?
Same I got derailed badly since mothers day and gained about 50lbs 😭
Thank-you for all the information you give us; I've been a fan since 2020. I've been eating your recommendations, along with fasting, and it gets easier over time. It's amazing to me how a small handful of berries thrown in full fat cottage cheese is now a rare desert that satisfies my sweet tooth for weeks. 60 years old with no health problems.
what information ?? to eat only grass?? according to this doctor every food is bad for you.....
Me too, 69 here and super healthy. But I must say that even adding a bit of whole fruit and dairy is a slippery slope for me - it kicks in my cravings big time. I'm avoiding dairy entirely because it's a trigger and makes me depressed. Eventually when I lose the last 20 and have a firm diet routine I'll try reintroducing the fruit I grow in my own yard (figs, pears, tart cherries, apples, blueberries). Sad I can't eat them right now but meanwhile my canned fruit makes nice gifts.

I'm currently in Asia and I decided to read my Asian friend's blood sugar one hour after she ate about four to five cups of white rice. I was astonished with the results! Her blood sugar was only 106dl 😮 where as if I had the same amount of rice my blood sugar would have been 250-300 dl. I've already lost one eye behind chronic metabolic dysfunction (uveitis, iritis, high blood sugar, fatty liver related). I don't wanna lose another one. I used to be healthier than a horse according to my younger charts. I unknowingly ate my way into this state, one buffet at a time, followed by bad diet advice. This doctor has literally guided me into the light. All that he has said so far has been the absolute TRUTH 🙏
Did you look into the racial components more? I’m curious if it’s genetic or is it just that you’re not in the best shape and hopefully once you get healthier you’ll have the same resistance as her?
insulin resistance
Sounds like you have diabetes then.
@@dmicah3960Chinese have been eating rice for about 10,000 years - more or less. Their body is perfectly capable therefore to prevent big blood sugar spikes from rice naturally. Genetics play a huge role in determining how our body reacts to various food groups. Europeans or americans couldn't handle well that much rice.
@@dmicah3960I think Asian body composition is different. But diets and exercise are important too. Asians are not fat, mostly thin and small, but many are sick because of the foods they eat that added dangerous chemicals like msg and other addictive to make food taste good. I am myself Asian and try my best not to eat at Asian restaurants,they are all using msg.
Would welcome this man as Health Minister in a heartbeat. Marvelous work Dr Sten, you are educating millions. All best, Alex in Norway.
Hello Dr. Ekberg. Im 52 years old and have been an athlete since the age of 8. Unfortunately I never learned enough about nutrition so I lost control in my 40s .I have been practicing an 18:6 fast and I have gone from 195 to 168 in approximately 60 days. My goal is 150. Your videos are very insightful and I am getting a good handle on knowing what to ingest and when to do it. Your material is excellent and I intend on helping others going forward as I continue to progress in this new endeavor which will help manage my health and life quality.
I'm one of those people who can't eat grains or sugar. If I do, all I want to do is eat. I agree about the tomato soup. I thought my favorite tomato soup was so healthy...until I quit eating sugar. When I had some of my soup, it was so sweet I couldn't eat it. Only then did I look at the ingredients and found sugar in the middle of the list. And now when I look at ingredients I find sugar in almost everything.
I have pretty much quit processed foods. I bought some bite sized frittatas which didn't have grains or sugar but I still found myself craving them after eating one or two. I don't know what the food corporations put in the food to cause this but I know they do it on purpose. The more we eat the more we have to buy from them.
I only eat
Organic grass fed, free range chicken & eggs, low carb vegetables, plant based cheese & sour cream, purified water, tea, flavored water, and organic coffee. I don’t even look at packaged foods anymore.
No grains, no nuts, no fruit, no dairy, etc.
I do purchase primal kitchen mayo and ketchup. Learned how bad High fructose corn syrup is from Dr. Weil years ago. Also years ago stopped consuming anything hydrolyzed. I do the intermediate fasting. I do not over stuff myself. My BMI is in the lower normal range. My weight hasn’t changed EVER but I do still have this fat around my gut. 😡
Oh and I do walk almost every day weather permitting. For those days I can’t get out I have a rowing machine.
Last A1c test showed 5.8
The best control I had over my gut and blood sugars when I went on a carnivore diet. So I’m going to go back to that, and stop listening to Doctor telling me I’m gonna die if I don’t eat vegetables.
It’s monosodium glutamate that nearly all food processors put in their foods. Also goes by many other names, like Hydrolyzed protein, etc. In all packages foods for the most part. And yes, they know exactly what they’re doing! Dr. Ekberg has stated this in other videos.
I make my own tomato soup from scratch. It’s healthy. No sugar. Delish
You've made some very valid and important points. Food companies add sugar because people like sugary foods and they will keep buying, making more profits. Eat wholefoods and reduce significantly any processed foods. Actually, almost everything contains sugar, but naturally occurring sugars, such as in fruit and vegetables and nuts, are much less damaging, and indeed in UK people are encouraged to eat more of these foods
@@afa1554 The same, I was thinking how is tomato soup unhealthy, the video is a misleading.Nothing wrong with "tomato soup". The issue is store bought soup in a can that adds loads of sugar. Actual tomato soup is fine - I cannot even think why you would add sugar to it!
This man is absolute gold. God bless him and his work. Thank you.
Is just a liar...many studies proofed that obese is not healthy and weight matters. Even todays culture does not wamt to see it because its not fair for fat people.
At 78 years of age, I fully agree with this video, from experience! Now that I know what to avoid, I’m in much better shape, and feel great! I’m sharing this video with the ones I love ❤️
Sten Ekberg goes into such detail of understanding that he is now my favorite keto master to follow. The other one with the name that sounds similar to his own is great and all but I never would have learned these things from anyone else.
Great video Dr. Ekberg! I like how your explanations are so thorough, and easy to understand! It really helps me so much, and I know I'm not the only one who feels that way! Thank you for caring about people's good health! Have a Happy Friday!
He’s a good teacher!
I love your videos Dr.Ekberg!! Thank you so much for guiding us toward better health ❤
Sten you are a natural teacher. A God given talent.
I am glad to be able to understand how you break down the why's and causes of the list. Giving me the knowledge to better myself. Just having the list without explanation doesn't seem to help me at all.
He has made over 500 videos… all that info is there.
hands down one of the top 5 doctors on youtube no matter how you look at it! so valuable and finally explained in a way that doesn't make you lose train of thought
I buy plain Greek yoghurt or kiefer and add low sugar raspberry jam to create my own healthier flavoring without any chemicals
This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health.
He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way.
I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely. 👍👍👍
I can't tell you how many medical doctors got it wrong on nutrition. Our food is what's making us sick especially sugar, gluten, GMO, and processed. Ask yourself why are Dorito chips and most US snacks banned in Europe and other countries. Even they know our FDA is corrupt
Except that he brings bad news for people. At this point btwn 5 health channels, you can't eat ANYTHING without it being negative impact. Gundry, Berg,DeIauer, Berry . I just watched one Dr. warning about turmeric w/ pepper - pepper bad, absorb too much curcumin, bad for organs. There's something wrong with everything. I'm great with this list till you get to tomato soup, fruit & condiments :/
Haha. You're so clueless.
Dude's not even a medical doctor.
@@InventorKnight Ouch...take your tinfoil and shove it. ^^
AMEN!😂
Im only starting at number nine in the video, but I have to say, Dr. Sten Ekberg is a true champion. Doctor of the People. Chasing truth and educating us! (For free!) Thank you so much! Love from Norway!
Sugar is hidden in so many items you really have to be diligent to be healthy thank you Dr. Ekberg
Well thats why you should eat more natural not processed food than you just habe natural sugar and not all the sugar in everything you buy.
@@12Burton24 that’s exactly right thank you and that’s what I do
no it's not. you have eyes. read the labels. there's no sugar added heinz ketchup and king arthur carb conscious pancake mix, sugar free maple syrup, and no sugar ice cream like breyers carb smart and diet soda. and stop eating canned tomato soups loaded with sugar. make tomato soup from...gasp...tomatoes.
@@jamesgarner2103 sugar free maple sirup...is there not already sugar by nature inside?🤣
just read the label and eat whole foods. It really isn't hidden, if you look.
This channels has literally changed my life for the better - following the advise of this man will 100% give results. Thank you Dr. Ekberg.
I just had tiramisu, it was delcious. I have it once a year (my birthday).
And yes, I wanted more sugar. Sugar is definitely addicting. Luckily, I have discipline and only have a dessert once a year.
I like the way you address people watching you as"Health champions"....
I love the thorough explanation in doctor Ekberg's videos. Absolutely brilliant
HEALTH CHAMPION ASSEMBLE !!!!!!!!!!
Yes ❤
100% attest to the addictive quality of sugars - if it is in the house, I will hunt it down. the trick is keeping it out of the house, but also it has helped by understanding this tendency in myself.
¡Gracias!
This is the list of my 10 fav foods : D Thank God I came here early enough, so I can change my diet gradually as I`m in my 30`s with any serious health issues 🙏
Thank you - I needed to hear this today. I know these are bad but I sometimes veer off to that proverbial slippery slope and the cumulative impact is dangerous. Please keep posting and I’ll keep watching ❤
All of us find it difficult… not be naughty but nice. ❤ It’s Christmas soon , so be a good boy. Santa will know. Do you know he is a Christmas baby? It’s soon his birthday. ❤
I have to admit I had a start when you said, "Fruit," but thank goodness you explained, LOL! We grow our own blueberries and apples, too, so I eat apples with tahini for the protein and fat to suppress the sugar spike. I *used to eat **_everything_* on that list; no wonder I wrecked my immune system. *After a year of fasting and clean eating (nothing on that list!) I'm 90% recovered and only have a couple of food sensitivities now (yeast, flax, eggs, processed cow's milk).*
Just be aware and moderation. I worked for an organic farm CSA for many years. I got paid in fruits and veggies and would dehydrate and freeze to be able to maximize my "pay" through out the year. I was not eating fast food. I was not drinking sugar soda. I was not eating candy bars and cookies and junk food. Then my A1C spiked and I came to realize I was insulin resistant, NAFLD all when I thought I was being healthy.
So we can not eat fresh fruit ???
@@dionisiatsafos3655 you can eat whatever you like. If you choose to prioritize metabolic health I’d recommend getting your fasting INSULIN tested and look at how it trends. Ideally you’d want your levels to be between (2-6). If over 25 you are diabetic. In normal American medicine no one tests this and make sure they are aware you mean insulin and are not meaning glucose.
Fructose doesn’t show on A1C or CGM. You could be doing long term damage while thinking you’re healthy.
Starbucks has made freaking billion$ off of what amounts to caffeinated milkshakes. And underneath it all, their actual coffee is fairly mediocre. It's all about the sugary toppings.
Correct...oh the power of image and marketing.
I'm at the end of day 1. I don't feel hungry. It's evening. I'm fine. But I'm 92kg. I want to get down to 65kg. 😂😂😂
@@janetrobertshaw6487just don’t give into sugar please, once you stop you’ll feel so much better and don’t need to go for sugar anymore
It’s not coffee,its dessert
Why are you not making fricking $ billions? There is plenty of sugar on the market for you to copy them.
Thanks!
I love how you explain things so simply so it's easy to understand. Not only that, but your points make complete sense.
What a superb presentation, so easy to understand. Thank you
People don't need those foods. Listen to this amazing Dr. People should educate themselves and not to overwhelm our health system. 😮
I learn so much from you. I avoid sugar, grains like the plague, keep carbs to moderate level, and am still pre diabetic. Trying to eat carbs now with some protein, fat, fiber like you recommend.
30grams of carbs or less might help you
If you are pre diabetic you should consume NO carbs if you ever want a chance to become insulin sensitive again. At this point that's about what it would take. Add some intermittent fasting too. You need Keto therapy I'm afraid.
maybe one day the light bulb will go on and you'll realize sugar and carbs are not the cause of your pre-diabetes. But then again, maybe it won't.
Cut out carbs. No bread tortillas tacos pretzels rice quinoa oatmeal. No pizza. No potatoes. No box cereals.
It's a challenge, no doubt, in this carb culture we live.
I love the way Dr Ekberg speaks, he doesn't sugar coat it, excuse the pun, and everything makes sense and can be cross checked. He puts it in a straightforward way and does not sensationalize his language like so many 'experts' on YT. He spells it out without condescension. This lifestyle is so easy to maintain, and shop for, now i avoid so many isle in the supermarket its great. Haven't felt hungry yet...😁
You have literally changed my life and the lives of my children with your educational content. I cannot express my gratitude enough.
I already knew most of that, because I have watched many of his videos, but I just like to watch them!
Great video Dr Ekberg. I have already learned all that you’ve stated and try to follow your teachings. It’s a terrible thing how these companies just want to keep feeding the nation “Sugar and other unhealthy products” just to keep making money for themselves. Thank You for your videos and concern to help us become better healthier people.
Bla Bla Bla. Are you seriously so gullible?
Dude's not even a medical doctor.
I wish there was some form of regulation on how much sugar can be used in products… it is detrimental to humans and costing the World Health billions of dollars in health care…. I saw the other day Sprite is now making a sugar free Lemonade but it has caffeine added! Really ridiculous!
@@Killerkarotte1he is much more knowledgeable than your expert advise I am guessing? 🤔
@@Killerkarotte1Medical doctors learn very little about nutrition. They throw pills at every symptom and call it good.
I had a panic when I saw tomato soup as I make my own all the time! However, it's all the processed foods! The only products on this list I eat are fruits such as apples and pears then ancient grains such as millet, amaranth and quinoa. Don't eat from tins and packets anymore!
Fantastic explanation of these unnecessary evils. Keep them away and thrive!!❤ thanks Dr Ekberg. Your presentation is awesome 😊
I quit all sugar years ago and I read labels. I noticed that sugar was the first ingredients in ketchup so I started making my own (recipes on the internet). Then I found Primal Kitchen ketchup. It has zero sugar or sweeteners and tastes so much better than regular ketchup. Regular ketchup tastes sickeningly sweet to me.
Really, I would just stop eating ketchup if it was just tomato paste, that’s what it would be without sweetness.
@@rodterrell304 No, Primal Kitchen sugar free ketchup tastes the same as regular ketchup
Thanks for the great video Dr. Ekberg
Great presentation doc, thank you for your informative uploads !!
Thank you, Dr. Ekberg! Truly another life saving video! Your channel already becomes my highlight on weekends! 🥰
Thanks!
Thank You @ibartucz1057 so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel, and for helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
Very well explained. You are slowly changing people's understanding of food/body reaction.
A friend of mine calls French Fries 🍟 spoons 🥄🥄 for eating ketchup. That used to be me before I stopped eating it. 😅
I feel like I'd fries are good, they need no sauce...but I rarely eat fries
Try malt vinegar!! Yummy!
I make my own ketchup so it's not filled with sugar.
Ew ketchup. My nephew loves ketchup. He told me it’s good for him because it is tomatoes. I said really? Let’s read the ingredients. He waited for the tomatoes in the list. It was the last thing and he asked me if it is still good for him with all the other stuff? Hahaha he is only 7. People just need to be educated
The only reason I eat fries , we all have different tastes, I hate alcohol and have no problem resisting it, but sugar , Now that is when I struggle. Easy for someone that dislikes something to tell someone else to not like it, but it’s easy for them.
I ate WAY more when I was thin. When I turned 60 gained so much weight without changing anything. So now I have to seriously low-carb and make sure I work out every day. Losing the weight is very slow going.
There are all kinds of perks to growing Old lol!
Thank you for your mission Dr. you are changing lives
the video is very good. I would like to get more information about what I can really eat.
Thank you !
I ate all of these in my 10-30's. Compound that with skipping meals and sedentary lifestyle. I'm now 33 without a gallbladder. It had empyema and was a Merezzi type. Too late for my poor gallbladder but I can still save my liver! I'm like a baby all over again as it looks like everything I know from nutrition from my medical background is wrong, or at least half-truths. Your videos help me get a more informed opinion on what I should do about my own body. Thank you so much for your videos,
Brilliant clarity on all the nutrition nuances! I used to eat a muffin or scone every day for breakfast with a large cup of coffee with 3 spoons of regular sugar. Now I'm on a keto diet with intermittent fasting and skip breakfast altogether and am healthier than ever in my mid 50s.
Same and same age. I never would have believed that I'd have coffee in the a.m and not be hungry for real food until the afternoon. It's not at all that I'm wanting to eat and trying to deny myself. I have zero interest in food. Before if I had errands to run I'd be thinking I need to eat before and maybe bring snacks or prepare to eat out and now I'm shocked by how little I need to eat to be stable, full energy and no ups and downs no longer desperate for afternoon naps.
Hey Doc, totally unrelated but could you please do a video SOON about how a person can best plan for an operation with full narcose? I‘m thinking of these diff. bulletpoints:
1-Talking to the doctor/hospital about my diet & that I do not want any sugar or any unnecessary meds
2-Fasting before & after the OP, maybe extended fasting
3-Possibly donating my own blood, that I definitely do not want anybody else’s blood
4-Suppliments and/or electrolytes to take before and after the OP
5-Anything else you might advise.
Thank you in advance 🙏
Hope you decide to research this, I‘ve heard autophagy is very helpful for healing. I‘m just worried they will inject me with something that will effect me adversely, especially because I‘ve been Clean Keto over 6 yrs
Hope your surgery went well and you are recovering nicely ❤
A major problem with store-bought tomato soup (and many other soups) is the salt content. In addition to putting a lot of sugar or corn syrup in, they add lots of salt. The salt will cause dehydration & also water-retention.
You have an incredible talent to explain things clearly. Thank you.
As someone with type one diabetes for 40 years and chronic Lyme disease, these are precisely the things I have been avoiding for a long time. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for your detailed explanation.
Thanks doctor, have a nice weekend.
Thank you very much indeed Dr. So succinct and well explained.
Dr. Ekbert, you are the man. Can you please make a video for those of us that have dropped the weight but are still insulin resistant but want to keep doing intermittent fasting and keep our weight or maybe gain a few pounds because we have dropped too much but still keep trying to drop the insulin resistance? I've been buying tallow at the store because someone suggested to bring the fats up but it's not grass fed tallow. I'm afraid I'm doing it wrong. I was adding a small amount of rice but i stopped because I want to fix my insulin resistance. I'm begging you, please. Thanks so much for what you do.
Thank you so much for your wonderful recipe and for helping us take care of our health. Wishing everyone who is watching this video always healthy, peaceful, and happy❤
Thanks so much for all this valuable information!
I didn't see Fruit Smoothies on this list, but I would put Fruit Smoothies on the "Soda" list #1 Worst Violators. There were things in here I hadn't even thought of yet, so thank you, Dr. Ekberg!! Always thoughtful, educational information in a well-presented platform. I recommend you to friends and strangers all the time!
I've told coworkers and people in the grocery store about your 3x Deadlier than Cancer and Most People Don't Know They Have It (IR) Video to over 30 people since I first saw it in 2020. I turned 50 years old June 2020 and knew I had to change, because I was on the way to Diabetes because I did a slow creep over 20 years, up to 6.0 A1C. I believe you Saved My Life. I have been at 5.3 to 5.4 A1C for almost 3 years, which means that I am avoiding damage to my internal organs!! Thank you, @DrStenEkberg!!
@@tammyd7400same boat...what did u do to drop your A1C?
I love tomato soup, or tomato stuff. But it is not very hard to make yourself, i mostly use fresh tomatoes and make soup or sauce out of them with spices, at least salt i love tomato with salt
very healthy soup even shrinks prostate
@@tanertavlan1769 why?
@@CatsLilaSalemtomatoes have lycopene which is supposed to be very good for prostrate but has to be cooked with some type of healthy fat mostly olive oil
Great explanation of the food Americans eat with very little understanding of what it's doing to your body. I was reminded of the very sad early death of a young girl.
A 21-year-old woman with a heart condition is dead after consuming a heavily caffeinated energy drink at Panera Bread that she may have believed was regular lemonade,
Dr. I am learning more & more! Trying to get better & off type 2 train! Stay safe!
They should ban food ads or at the least put a warning on the label! Definitely More education is needed beginning in Primary Schools!
My grandparents lived to over 100, and 91. They ate everything in moderation. Food then was real food though. Now the grocery store is 80 percent fake, processed, radiated food.
I make my own tomato soup, only 7 ingredients, tomatoes, onion, garlic, basil, salt and pepper and extra virgin olive oil.
Although you didn't highlight in detail humans are really poor at differentiating real-hunger from thirst and will often eat when they just need water. Sadly the fast-food choices are never salad (laden with water) and often carb-based thus creating a desire for more water that is given more food. The lesson I applied when re-learning about food has been drink more water and treat a bulk of manufactured food items as not-fit-for-human-consumption. Have great weekend Dr Ekberg.
Yeah, if I'm stuck somewhere and haven't had food all day, I usually go for diet soda and a lettuce wrapped A&W burger. It's not the best, but it's liquid without sugar, and protein and fatty acids from grass fed cows.. could do much worse.
One of the best videos in explaining the basics of insulin. This should be taught in High School so we understand how it works. While people are familiar with the word insulin and may relate it to diabetes, people have no idea what it is and how it works. I think understanding this makes choices of what to eat easier. You find out that you ARE really in control if you understand it.
Amazing teacher so knowledgeable and professional, thanks for ALL the information!! You the best Dr 👨⚕️🙏🙏
So all of the deliciousness is off limits. Well that sucks.😢
I find it strange that people know all of this, but no one seems to be trying to put those who distribute such foods out of business. 🤔
Because we don't yet live in a completely authoritarian state. However, with people like you we are getting closer to it every day.
@@kirbywaite1586 I'm a bit confused as to what you're trying to say. Do you think that an authoritarian state would be good or bad?
@travismorse4762 I think it's pretty obvious that I consider it a bad thing.
Who uses " authoritarian" in a positive context?
Don't try gas- lighting me. I can smell it miles away.
I eat organic, steamed vegetables most meals including breakfast. I use vegan mayo, organic tahini, olive oil, etc. I also include hemp and flax seeds. I also eat a soft-cooked egg for breakfast. I make bread with coconut/almond flour. I put in spices, nuts, seeds and sometimes Lily's 55% dark chocolate chips. Plenty of RUclips recipes.
The only grain I use is organic sprouted oatmeal, and I use lots of water and make it thin and do not add milk or sugar. Then I limit it to one cup of the finished product. I do add powdered cinnamon and ginger root. I know that sounds awful but I enjoy it.
I am starting my venture into weight loss. No doubt, sugar will be hardest to cut. Hopefully, sugar substitute in coffee will be ok. This guy is great. Learning so much.

Goodmorning happy Friday, thanks for your knowledge, have a wonderful day today 🙏💕
Dr. Ekberg, you may have already addressed my questions in another video which I haven’t seen. What is your view on sugar substitutes such as Stevia, etc and what is your view on glycemic index eating plans? Thank you.
May God bless u with more sharing useful information to humanity
Willpower is been a major part of my 67 years. Needed on weight loss diets. Now I’ve discovered a way of eat that eliminates willpower and cravings. No carbs, no alcohol, no highly processed food. Perfect for me.
Since November 30 2023, I've changed the way I eat and what I eat. I've been cooking more instead of going out, choosing healthier foods and portion control. I've lost 10 pounds. Planning meals and logging the food I eat are the things that have been working for me.
I've used Dr. Sten Ekberg's intermittent fasting video, and I lost 10 lbs. Of course, I also exercised daily doing strength training and cardio simultaneously. I feel much better these days.
Do not do cardio exercises it's unhealthy
@Mauitaoist why is cardio unhealthy?
Not sleeping, waiting for a new video. Thanks Dr Ekberg
Dr. Ekberg, your videos are really life changing.
Please give your recommendations in context to pregnancy and lactating women.
Always enjoy and deeply appreciate the way Dr. Ekberg explain things in a fashion that is clear, and easy to understand. 👍🙏🏆
Hi again from Sweden . This time I am curious about the glykogen stores. Can the body only make them from glukos or can it convert something else into glykogen if the stores need a refill? Have a great day 😊
I'm suspicious of these sparkling flavored waters that are becoming so popular. Since they apparently contain nothing but water and natural flavoring, but nothing is shown on the ingredients list, I suspect they are 'rounding down' this natural flavor. I've heard elsewhere that natural flavor could be glutamate based, like a derivative of aspartame or MSG. So how would we find out what these so-called natural flavors are?
Please talk about sugarfree substances also. Truvia Monkfruit etc.
He has a sugar video. Search his name and sugar, you'll find it.
