It took me 6 LONG months to kick my lifelong sugar habit. I literally tried every day. I failed, gave up, beat myself up about it, and repeated that process for 6 long ASS months. It was so mentally draining on me that i almost fully quit. Finally, after some miracle, I was able to go an entire month without sugar. I had stevia only a few times, but after that, i ended giving that up, too. Im proud to say i am now 1 year sugar-free with the exception of sugar from fruits like apples and oranges, etc. I haven't had any single cane sugar or artificial sugar for a year now. So damn proud of myself, but I swear to god it was like getting rid of a drug addiction. I felt like i went through withdrawals. Headaches, detoxing, and all. It was bad. I will never go back to eating any sugar whatsoever. Ive lost so much weight, got rid of candida, got rid of tinnitus(ear ringing), no more acne, got rid of my bloated belly, improved gut health, i sleep so much better and my endurance levels have improved. I eat so healthy now that everyone says im a health nut. Lol, I'll take that over being a sugar addict! Im a 34 female with 2 children. Even my kids and husband have kicked the sugar habit. So proud of them!! Once you cut out one bad habit, it makes it easier to cut out other bad habits. So, we also cut out anything processed, seed oils, junk, fast food and anything gluten(pasta bread,tortillas). We now eat an animal based diet with lots of protein, lots of animal fats, & fruits & veggies. Anyways, cutting out sugar is possible it just takes a little time. 😅 Trust me!! 😅😅
Also one rule to live by, is to ALWAYS look and read labels on EVERYTHING!! Sugar is in a lot of things. If it says any added sugar whatsoever I DO NOT BUY IT or EAT IT. I've made it my #1 rule in my house. Absolutely no added sugar. No cane sugar, no stevia, no artificial sugar, no nothing! You have to read the labels on all packaging of food. But now siince we eat an animal based diet now I don't really have to worry about buying any packaged processed food & reading labels for added sugar since everything we eat is fresh like eggs, steaks, butter, raw dairy, raw cheese, tallow, lamb, chicken, fruits and some veggies. When you eat this way you have all natural ingredients nothing added. Also we try to eat all organic and grassfed as much as possible. It has been life changing getting rid of sugar, gluten, and anything ultra processed. Stop the SAD diet and you will change your life I guarantee it! 💯
I've been carnivore for 10 months. My severe arthritis in my upper and lower back are 90% pain-free. I lost 40 pounds and am tapering off hypothyroid meds.
Thank you so much for this. When I was diagnosed with T2 Diabetes 3 years ago at 32 years old, I was told that it's a degenerative disease. But I've been able to reverse it through exercise before meal, intermittent fasting and a low carb diet. May you live a long healthy life to keep eucating the masses and removing misinformation about the human body. Thank you
You said a key thing - "reverse." You didn't "cure" it, you reversed it. Many diseases can be reversed, they don't need some magical cure. Glad to hear you're doing well. I lost 60 lbs. over a couple years, without trying, just by doing the things you're doing. I also take quality supplements. At 57 years old, I'm healthier than I've ever been.
This is my story, too. I adopted a low carb diet and reversed my Type 2 diabetes without any medication. The few carbohydrates I eat the better I think, feel and sleep. I have even seen improvements in my Autoimmune symptoms. Everything I was told about the dangers of low carb and ketogenic way of eating has been proven to be a lie. I even watched as the American Diabetes Association, in a most cowardly fashion, finally endorsed this way of eating as an effective means to control, improve and even reverse T2D. Congratulations on your improved health!
Oh dear, sugar was my only vice left. No alcohol, no cigarettes, no salty yummy chips now no chocolates cakes cookies. Still going to sugar my tea and coffee... great information, thank you, I'll expect a card on my 100th birthday in 36yrs
Don"t underestimate the worth of treats for your mental health. I love my weekends where I eat salty chips and treat myself for all the bullshit I need to go through under the week and I definitely feel like a better human being with these weekends than without them
you will develop type 2 diabetes just like the rest of the Americans @@its3amagain. not only that sugar melts your brain and makes you dumb, your insulin resistance is most likely off the charts right now.
Don’t deprive yourself of sugar it is the powerhouse of the brain I eat candy just about everyday and I’m 11% body fat it’s all about how you manage it
@@yaraviera4444 After watching these videos, I decided to do that through Science Care. It helps the human race and takes a huge burden off of my family members.
I love all the things this channel lacks - chiefly politics, fear mongering, pandering, chastising, copy content, click-bait, and manipulation in general. Just solid, honest, objective facts. I watch, listen, and learn, and that is time well-spent. Thank you for this channel! ❤️
But his information is not always correct. Sugar from fruits is not the same as refined sugar (table sugar and High-fructose corn syrup), this is a catastrophic misinformation.
@@DX-d You are incorrect. Sugar found in fruits, includes glucose, fructose and sucrose, and polysaccharides. What you are missing is the soluble and insoluble FIBER fruits contain, that refined sugars do not have.
What? He literally told your refined sugar is not that bad... In a video promoting a sugary drink. Facts? Honesty? That's what this channel lacks. It is an abomination to compare glucose from complex carbs with fiber to glucose boosts from refined sugars.
Well done for telling people that sugar isn't bad so long as you dont take excessive amounts of it and get plenty of exercise. I'm 85 and have consumed a kilo every 6 or 7 weeks throughout my life except during the war when it was rationed, and it has done me no harm. I take it mainly in my tea and burn it off with exercise, so it doesn't make me gain weight. I can still wear the same clothes now that I wore 60 years ago. I dont have any medical conditions to complicate the issue. I go for a 4 mile run once a week and do plenty of walking. Fruit and veg is an important part of my diet.
This is what we call an "anecdote". I congratulate you on your successful maintenance of your health, but others may not share your individual experience. I'm also not sure this anecdote is all that compelling, really, as twenty grams of added sugar a day is a tiny amount compared to what most people are eating. Two cans of soda would get you three times that much right away.
As a type 2 diabetic I’m so glad I came across this video!!! It explained so much more than my dr has ever explained!!! Thank you for giving me things I can & will do to change my body!!!!
I had hives on my upper arms for 30-40 YEARS! If I didn’t scratch myself bloody during the day, I did it while sleeping. There were nights I itched so bad that I never slept. I went to every doctor I could think of general practice, neurologist, allergist, dermatologist, on an on. I was put on Gabapentin which caused weight gain, and I was totally miserable. One day a chiropractor told me the scars on my arms looked like her mothers, and her mother stopped eating sugar for a week and a half, and all the hives went away. Done!
Omg... I started getting this rash on my arms and they have become extremely itchy and I have red sores all over them. It looks horrible. I knew I needed to cut down on carbs and sugar because it's causing inflammation and making me feel lousy, but I just realized that maybe it's the cause of my rash. I've looked all over the internet for a cause or a name for it and I can't find anything similar. I'm cutting out sugar completely tomorrow and see if that gets rid of this damn rash! Thanks for your comment.
Really great, informative video! I learned a lot of this in a GenEd nutrition class last semester. A couple of my best takeaways are "You don't need to count calories, just make calories count" meaning avoid empty calories and the "double edged sword of malnutrition", or the tendency to consume too many calories and not enough vitamins, minerals, etc. And the other is "self control is really self care" meaning we make better decisions when we're really taking care of our bodies and not stressing them out, pushing them to their survival instincts. Take care of yourselves friends! I'm hoping the beat for you
Very informative, I remember I cut out sugar completely and kept passing out at work. Every-time the ambulance came they told me I needed glucose and it’s the main cause to my fainting, My Dr got on me as well. So just monitor how much you consume is all
These guys make content that SHOULD be taught everywhere around the world in every school. I feel like I would've loved to have all this information back when I was 13 or 14. Decisions would be so different for every person's life with this knowledge. Anatomy is 100x more important than religion or business classes at school, yet we are taught that crap instead of what really matters. (I'm from Colombia btw)
Estoy de acuerdo, pero al sistema no le importa que te desarrolles como persona, por eso no enseñan nutrición, defensa personal, gestión emocional... Al sistema lo que más le interesa es que seas dependiente de él.
Teachers have to stick to the standards or they get in trouble. Before standardized testing existed in public schools, a teacher could have chosen to teach this. Now, teachers have to teach to the test or get fired. 😞
I took and passed AP biology in high school(>8 years ago), and I am truly just now understanding this concept! Thank you all so much for bringing these videos to RUclips! Please do the diabetic video idea! I'm type 2 and I am excited to get a better understanding to hopefully make a healthier change in my lifestyle!
Hi there I had type 2 diabetes and managed to reverse it without medication through clean keto and intermittent fasting. Read the book The Diabetes Code by Dr Jason Fung. Hope it helps.
When my Dad diagnosed with cancer my Dad removed sugar in his diet. According to studies sugar is the no.1 food of cancer to grow now my Dad is cancer survivor ❤🙏🏻
are you both saved from hell, by believing the good news(gospel) of christ :: christ died for our(you)sins, was buried and rose again on the 3rd day. christ died for the whole world, that we donth ave to go to hell and us to receive:: believing it personal(trusting it that along to come in hevaen). god was in christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not reckonicking their transpasses
Yes, the cancer cells don’t use oxygen, they use glucose to grow and survive. Their mutation turned them anabolic. There’s so much info on this, but not delivered. You see patients getting chemo being offered cookies and coke and hospital meals are processed and mainly carbs. So sad.
Thank you for this video. Good content. My grandfather was born in 1934 and told me that back then, people only had a sugar cube during holidays and special times. It was rare to have sugar from other sources rather than fruits or other natural foods. No sweets in stores, nothing. Nowadays, stores are full. He passed away 2 years ago but he loved the snacks that we always had for him. Have a nice day 🌟
It was the same in my grandparents’ day, but their diet did contain a lot of bread and potatoes because of poverty. My grandmother and all seven of her siblings had type 2 diabetes. There was obviously a strong genetic component, but diet triggered it. Too many starchy foods is equivalent to eating too much sugar.
The trouble with youtube videos is that you can make every effort to produce a balanced and fair video and there will still be trolls and detractors that swarm the comments to call BS without providing evidence. These people are not trolls or paid. They are slaves to their opinions and beliefs. It's a real shame.
@@reginesinatra8213 If one could through utube, categorize them with good to bad, would be helpful. They say that most are run through algorithms then why not have an algorithm that picks up on negativity as well? I see this many times in many videos that share great information and then all of a sudden, bang, here come the onslaught of naysayers. The producers can't always take the time to delete these but I think they can set up a guideline for the good and bad. It is a shame that this happens but, taking the good also means accepting the bad. Like say, just don't read them. Something I've tried to learn to do as I myself sift through the comment sections. It's hard and doable. This podcast has so much to learn from, I can only thank this channel for giving us a different perspective. Here's what will say to all that post negative comments. I'll take your with a mere grain of salt. Sometimes I may pick up something you may say and what I will call, "Recycle" your thoughts into a more productive picture. You see, I will show even those that cannot, some respect, regardless of your viewpoint. The human species is a remarkable biological specimen, one that is strong but so very vulnerable in so many ways. What I may learn from any one source may differ from another and thus I can only weigh in that when all of what I may ingest for my own mind to sort out. Any conclusions are mine and mine alone. When and if I may share my thoughts, they come with an invitation for discussion. When I present this as an invitation, it is that I offer out my thoughts on any subject so myself and anyone within this discussion may proceed to find relevance to our findings together. My whole makeup is not to disprove another's view but to learn something from that view and hopefully improve on myself from that.
I'm predisposed for diabetes and these videos really help me understand how and why things happen the way they do. They have been invaluable in understanding the disease, and what I have to look forward to if I don't address it. Thanks!
Diabetes is a barrier between blood sugar and glycogen storage. Type 1 is caused by a weak and failing pancreas (usually the immune system has attacked it) that doesn't produce insulin (in significant quantities if at all). Type 2 is the cells are unresponsive to insulin - usually because the receptor sites are clogged up with fat.
Regarding diabetes take a look at this doctor conference: ruclips.net/video/gaY4m00wXpw/видео.html The doctor refers to chronic diseases specifically which includes diabetes and in this Ted talk he explains how he can make them disappear
I love your channel. Even as a health care worker for 30 years you continue to teach us more information in a more comprehensive and clear way than many teachers can or do! (Though they do try). Thank you!
As a type 2 diabetic I have educated myself over the years to understand most of what you're describing here. But this is the most comprehensive piece I have ever seen on the subject. Fantastic!
I’m from Thailand and follow your channel for a year. I like the way of your explanation; especially, the cause and effect of a ton of glucose digesting. “Glucose” is “Glucose”. Our body doesn’t know where it came from. I think we can control our glucose in the bloodsteam by optimizing or balancing our food intake, resting and activities (exercises). Moreover, I’m looking forward to watching your insulin and diabetes video. Thank you for the excellent topic.
this explains so much!!! i just cut out so much sugar from my diet, primarily the “added sugars” because i thought they were so bad for me. i have a better understanding of how this works now, and though i will still keep it to a minimum i feel a lot more comfortable. i exercise daily so although i won’t eat it daily, i feel more comfortable to occasionally indulge 😊
Be careful it’s addictive once you’re off the stuff you’re best to stay away for me there’s so many good substitute fresh fruit nuts berries and heavy whip cream is OK does not have sugar in it there’s all kinds of substitutes. With substance to it so that you’re not hungry and eating again in 10 minutes
I think this video actually helped me understand why I'm hyperglycemic; I've always been on the taller and skinnier side, quite lean with a somewhat toned amount of muscle. It's extremely difficult for me to gain a significant amount of fat and I've never been fat or able to put on large amounts of it. So it seems that, if my body is unable to store that much glycogen in my muscles or my liver, and I am unable to remove the glucose from my blood by turning it into fat, then much more of my glucose would remain in my blood then the average person who can put on more fat than I can, hence the tendency for my blood sugar levels to be high and for me to be hyperglycemic/prediabetic. I'm trying to understand anatomy and my body better so I can adjust my diet and daily eating habits to better lower my blood sugar level so I can avoid developing Type 2 Diabetes, so this video has been somewhat helpful. Thank you!
I can totally relate, thank you for sharing. I call myself "skinny fat" because I'm sure that if it wasn't because of my skinny/tall genetics, I would be obese due to the way I've eaten throughout my life. I can feel diabetes right around the corner. I've been doing daily fasting for over 5 years now and trying to avoid as much as possible anything that raises my blood sugar.
This is by far the best explanation about this subject that Ihave ever seen. It is clear, concise and embeds all the individual pieces of information in an overall context. I feel like I got the best value for the 17: 30 minutes I spent of my lifetime. You have earned a subscription and I am looking forward to see more classes in the same quality level in the future. 👍
A super helpful explanation of the pros and cons of 'sugar.' Because the topic is so confusing, it's not easy to convince people to reduce their sugar consumption. This video is very persuasive in an a unbiased, factual and friendly way. Bravo!
Thank you for explaining why exercise helps to reduce fat storage. For decades Ive been told to exercise more but no health care professional has been prepared to explain it to me. i dont follow orders well without understanding their purpose but this video has encouraged me to make more effort. Many thanks.
I’m so appreciative of how informative these videos are & that you’ve made them accessible to those of us who are not medical personnel or research scientists. Thank you!
This is such an excellent video, thank you!! I knew eating an orange was better than eating a donut, but I never really knew why. Your explanation about how processed sugar is problematic due to how easy it is to consume way too much of it really makes sense to me. Thanks again!
it is never the end of the world, i had HIV but when a friend of mine recommended a healer and caster for me, and she helped me out and i am NEGATIVE now, i was tested twice and i am free now
This video is just ridiculously well elaborated. Thank you for the informative upload. It really helps deconstruct some of the half-truths or outright lies that are being spread around by uneducated and self proclaimed fitness gurus and social media influencers.
It's also just difficult to avoid the extra sugar, as it's in EVERYTHING and that you need to always check every label. It's difficult to avoid the hidden sugars.
I stopped eating anything with added sugar in boxes or sodas. Regular soda is bad with the added sugar. I drink diet coke and water only. Ever since I left the added sugars and got my sugars from berries and veggies I have felt better. Avoid anything that has added sugar. Theres snacks with sugar free but those are bad too but not nearly as bad as regular table sugar.
Yeah. For example if I buy a whole piece of cheese (haha that rhymes xD ) there´s no sugar in it. But if I buy the same cheese presliced, sugar has been added. Same with sausage for bread. The sugar helps to maintain color and keep the food from becoming bad.
So true.. I just try to avoid the obvious ones like candy, soda and most juice. A can of Pepsi has a ridiculous amount of sugar. I can barely finish a can but some people will drink 7 to 10 of them a day and wonder why they’re fat. Soda needs to be regulated more, there should be a limit on the sugar they can put. This is what causes severe obesity, food can only get you so big. I never met a obese person who doesn’t drink a ton of soda. One thing my mom did was stop buying soda for the house and she will buy a few bottles of juice. She would say if you want it go buy it yourself, I’m never buying soda for the house again. All my friends would always tell me I never have anything to eat in my house. My parents didn’t buy junk food, everything had to be cooked. If they did buy some junk food my brother would demolish it in one sitting! Lol I was always 150 to 170 lbs at 6 ft I recently got to 190. The lockdown really got to me lol.
Free, informative, and accurate information that rings all the bells for auditory and visual learning. Thank you for what you do! The information in these videos will undoubtedly help me with my future endeavors and fulfilling my curiosity.
Also the other benefit of eating complex carbohydrates over simple sugars is that the digestive process is more complex requiring more energy spent by the body to break them down to their monosaccharides constituents, thereby preventing that calorie excess which comes from easily digestible sugars.
I am completely dependent on sugar, caffeine, nicotine and alcohol. Once decided to quit all of them at the same time, unfortunately it lasted 66 days. It was great experience , after days I felt no crave for all of them. In the final day I smoked cigarette with coffee, eating very sweet turkish helva
What i like the most is the way he explained the content . Of course the content he had taught is very factual and useful obviously. But the way he had taken the entire discussion and screenplay of his narration is what made the video stand apart
Very excited for the upcoming video(s) on diabetes and insulin! Hope it covers types besides T1D and T2D (bonus points for a mention of diabetes insipidus), explaining why certain symptoms, complications, and comorbidities are so common, and a special focus on clearing up misconceptions. There’s certainly no shortage of those. It’s difficult finding resources to share that are both scientifically accurate, and explained in a way that won’t entirely overwhelm people who have little to no prior knowledge on biochemistry.
Watch Dr.Berg you tube channel he's got over 3,000 videos and has helped soooooo many people with several different health issues... You won't regret it
@@symbionese2348 diabetes insipidus has *nothing* to do with sugar. It's a neruological problem. It would indicate that he didn't know what he was talking about if he did mention it.
I’ve been addicted to sugar since I was a kid. I’ve kicked meth, other drugs, and cigarettes after being addicted for years and they were easy to give up in comparison! I’m still trying and I haven’t had sugar for 14 days now. I’m trying a carnivore type diet to lose weight and give up my constant craving for sugar and carbs....so far so good!
I just got diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes last week and today this video showed up on my RUclips suggestions. I've been remiss, lately, in keeping up with your videos. I would have seen this already if I hadn't kept up to date with you guys. That'll teach me, lol. I can't wait to see the ones on diabetes. I always feel better knowing exactly what's happening in my body. Thanks again for your wonderful work. And Happy Holidays!
Try cutting out all fat foods. Did you know that most calories in a chocolate 🍫 isn’t from sugar? It’s from the fat. So don’t get in the trap of cutting “sugar” and replacing it with fatty foods. Also eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. Don’t eat nuts. They are mostly fats.
I'll give you a suggestion based on research and personal experience. Cut out all the carbohydrates, bread tortillas etc. Don't drink any sugary drink or add any sugar to coffee. I have revered my diabetes in 8 month from 400 to 95. No medication
@@joey_5060 I am not a medical doctor but a biologist. Sugar feeds all cells. Cancer cells tend to have a faster growth rate and therefor need more nutrients to keep up with the pace. This is what we do in the lab when we culture certain types of cancer cells: we have specific media with a high glucose content. This is the theory but restricting your diet to cauliflower is not going to cure you. Listen to your doctor, get proper care and try to keep up with a healthy lifestyle. Stay strong, you will defeat it :)
@@joey_5060 That's true, they can take up sugar excess more than other cells (beyond fat cells) because they want to uncontrollably replicate. Doing keto may help by making the body run mostly on ketones and stabilize blood sugar to lower levels that feed you without feeding the cancer to the same extent
I can't wait for your upcoming series on diabetes because I just got diagnosed with type 2 in May. Since then, I've cut out all the candy, cake, pies, etc. that I had been eating, started doing my old PT exercises every day, and I've dropped my A1C from 7 to 6.6 and lost around 14 pounds - without meds, but they will probably come later, given that diabetes is progressive. I'm eating a lot more whole foods, too.
You won't need the meds if you also cut out pastas, bread, crackers, biscuits, cereals and most fruits and any sugar drinks. Keep exercising and stick to meat, eggs, greens, lower carb vegetables, and berries.
@@ExplorerBen7 That's about what I've done. I'm not exactly young, so if the diabetes gets harder to control with just this method, I'll do what my doctor wants. And I haven't had a sugar drink in years.
@@miriambucholtz9315 nice, yeah just keep doing that and you should be good. 80% of the time health issues can be reversed or prevented with exercise and diet changes, doctors mostly only know meds.
A channel I found helpful for diabetes and recipes is called “Beat diabetes!”. The man in the channel is diabetic himself and had lots of great recipes and info!
And now no one can question my methods of training people. I have written an article on fat loss and how the majority of the fitness industry is a fad, help a middle aged lady lose weight and her diabetes so she can enjoy the foods she wants, and now you have just reaffirmed everything I have been preaching. Much appreciated my man!
Thank you so much for this video! I am a fun medical case…. Cystic Fibrosis diagnosed at age 2, and I developed CF related diabetes in my early 20’s. I know and understand a good amount about the human body, but sugars still don’t make a lot of sense to me. You guys are so informative and entertaining, so I love to learn more by watching your videos!!!
So VERY interesting! I never understood exactly how all these systems worked together in our bodies before. Thanks for bringing it all together in just one video. Want to encourage others toward that exercise & movement -- something I more or less loved & grew up on. Just the way we were designed -- Amen! No wonder it works. Thanks again.
The number of your subscribers has been rising every other day by thousand due to your great videos. Thank you so much for giving us so many great videos from which we have learned a lot. Dear teacher, would you please say something about Accutane in treating skin acne next time? thank you so much.
Thank you for watching, and it has been great to see people interested in the channel and subscribing. We do get a lot of video requests, but we will add Accutane to the list!
Dear Jonathan, We don't really know anything about our supposed ancestors millions of years ago. What we are now is what we have always been. On the contrary, human beings live less now than at the beginning of our existence. Thanks for your excellent work. Your intelligence surpasses anything else created under the sun ...
This video really clarifies many missconceptions that were being taught to people about sugars. Can you guys do a video about Ulcers, especially mouth ulcers. Which typically cure in 7-15 days but cause a lot of discomfort. There is really very less information on there causes and how the body reacts to them and their healing process.
Ye same honestly. I thought all sugar was bad. But since I'm an active person I should consider getting more sugar in my diet as I wasn't getting enough at all before. Plus that explains my serious sugar craving issue when I began to workout
@@Stirling-Shade Cookies and creme Hershey Kisses are my recommendation. I can a pack in my desk drawer. I pop 1 in my mouth mid way through my work outs. The nice scent of them also is a nice addition. Obviously moderation though
I am very surprised that only spoke of our body running on sugar. This is not very accurate, nor efficient. Our body can run on ketones far more efficiently and this avoids the danger of excessive insulin and therefore diabetes. Dr berg has amazing videos on this subject. Running our body on sugar and carbs has serious health risks........I have been off carbs and sugar for 2 years and the difference is truly amazing. I recommend it anytime. Intermittent fasting without the sugars and carbs is the answer.
You're right that your body can run off ketones as well as glucose, but it does this as a last resort fail safe when your body is a state of semi-stavation, it's definitely not safer than glucose-atp synthesis. Ketones are quite literally toxins that do free radical damage to your tissues, and push your blood pH buffer systems to the limit. Not consuming enough carbs for years on end puts you a huge risk for ketoacidosis, low-grade acidosis, kidney stones, islet of langerhans atrophy, gut dysbiosis, left ventricular atrophy and literally so many other health concerns. It puts stress on all of your organ and hormonal systems and generally isn't recommended long term . Idk what kinda cult Dr. Berg has going on but be careful folks :/
Great breakdown of sugar. I'd add that the human body does not need sugar from food for survival as the liver produces all the "sugar" you need. However, you do need to eat fiber (both soluble and insoluble) to feed your gut microbiome.
This is exactly the answer I've been looking for for years. The popular opinion is that sugar = bad, drink diet drinks, but not via aspartame, etc. I can see how say a weight lifter would still opt for the diet if they were on a calorie restricted diet, but aside from that, if you absolutely need to satisfy your sweet tooth and you're active, having a normal sugar is probably more beneficial for your body than a "diet" option solely based on the positive effects in the body via recharging glycogen stores. In essence, the takeaway is MODERATION is king, as with most things. Awesome video!!!
I really really enjoyed this one. I'm studying to become a personal trainer and even though I know the info, it's hard for me to explain to other sometimes. This helped a ton. Thanks!
What he didn't talk about was that added sugars, especially high-fructose corn syrup, are more readily stored as fat in the liver itself leading to fatty liver disease, they produce AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products) which directly damage cells, and they cause a systemic inflammation response resulting in vessel damage and many other disorders. It's excess refined sugar and HFCS that actually cause many of the heart and vascular conditions blamed on dietary cholesterol. Cholesterol is a vital substance which your body actually needs and literally produces on its own. But when excess sugar damages your vessels, cholesterol is part of the body's attempts to fix the problem. When you keep your body in a constant state of inflammation, cholesterol builds up and can result in atherosclerosis, heart damage, etc.
I love this outstanding presentation for the valuable educational content that it provides. However, I felt that there were critical caveats that he had not covered (perhaps he covers these in a subsequent presentation). So I very much thank you for taking the time to add your critically important comments. I believe that we are created beings and that our bodies are incredibly intricate machines. I therefore believe that the naturally occurring, delicious fruits and vegetables that are available to us were created by our loving creator so as to provide us a way to optimum health.
It's both, dietary cholesterol acts like oil and water in your blood. When those fats are inside your blood they coat your cells and make it impossible for insulin to reach the cell. If it happens to your arterial cells then you develop a wound where those cells die. Then your body starts to clot that spot. And as you continue to eat fattier meals you keep preventing your body from utilizing energy and healing. And thus more and more fat starts to accumulate in that clot. Again I don't know why people keep trying to justify eating cholesterol as a positive thing. When your body requires you to put that cholesterol into your blood to be utilized. And putting oil in water is never a good idea. That is why when your body makes its own cholesterol which it makes all that it needs it has carrier molecules that make sure that it doesn't have that impact. Saturated fat is even worse. So in combination it's deadly. The deadly combo is a burger with high saturated fat and cholesterol mixed with a bunch of starchy fries that are fried and really rancid oxidized oil, mixed with a high fructose corn syrup sugar drink, and throw in some caffeine there just to raise your blood pressure along with the salt. It's the type of stuff that shouldn't be allowed to be sold to children. Probably worse than a cigarette. Eat plants folks. They only make you healthier.
What I'm missing here is the issue of _refined_ sugar. It is not sugar per se that is dangerous, it's the refined version, which can be absorbed very quickly. This triggers an insulin surge, and can be one of the factors for Type 2 diabetes because the cells develop a tolerance for insulin. Sugar in fruit and natural foods is absolutely fine. For one, there is not much of it compared to the other stuff like fibre. A litre of orange juice contains juice from 2kg of oranges - you can easily drink a litre of juice, you'll struggle to eat 2kg of oranges. It also isn't as immediately available as the refined sugar. A significant part of the sugar is locked within the cells of your fruit and veg, and it takes time to break this matrix down and absorb the sugar. And you get all that fibre as well (juicing is stupid, ask any dietician).
sugar is sugar your body is trying to refine it when it breaks it down with digestion that is refined sugar and right when at the instannce in the moment you absorb it it is refined and your body wants to absorb the refined version because thats what it is trying to do when your body goes through the process becoming processed sugar and at the given time when its done breaking down the fibre there is o way you're not absorbing the same refined sugar as you would straight from the bag thats what your body is goiing for anyways it prefers it youre trying to give yourself direct access to the straight up available sugar and in the end that is what you get your body extracts it all the same you don't need to have a filter your body is 100% efficient at utilizing sugar , the sugar phobic community is insane.
@@thebraininsideahead Try using some interpunction, this is outright painful to read and makes your comment seem even sillier than it is already. *Of course* sugar is sugar, and at the point when it is being used in your body there is no difference whether it came from an apple or from a bag of sugar, but there is bloody well a difference in terms of how it is absorbed within your body. Which is the whole bloody point of my post. When you consume refined sugar it goes into your metabolism all at once, and your body has to work hard to keep this surge down, counteracting it by a surge of insulin and converting it into fatty tissue. But when the sugar is released slowly - as is the case when you're digesting fruit and vegetables - there is no emergency and the sugar gets consumed during the normal operation of the body. You surely *must* understand the difference between downing a bottle of wine, and drinking it with a meal during the course of an evening, don't you? There is nothing "sugar phobic" in my comment, quite the opposite: I'm stating that the bad consequences of consuming sugar are not connected to all types of sugar, and that you *CAN* consume it from the fruit and vegetables without problems. You can also consumed refined sugar without problems, but only when you're doing heavy exercise and burn it off immediately. So do us all a favour and learn to read (and write) before embarrassing yourself with such a comment.
Really interesting. Would be great to have a Part 2 that provides the same type of analysis, of the sugar substitutes. For example, a sugary soft drink versus a diet soft drink. Thanks!
YES! It’s so controversial. However, if you read research from the American diabetes association, the consensus is that artificial sweeteners are not “bad.”
Erythritol, xylitol, stevia, allulose, monkfruit are all great alternatives to glucose and fructose. Make sure it's non-gmo and preferably organic. Xylitol even cleans your teeth while you eat it. Zevia is the only soda I would drink, if you need one. I've recently added fruit back into my diet and after cutting out sugar it is so much sweeter. I'll even have about tbsp of honey everyday. I do still have my zevia when I want a soda.
After having had pancreatitis and DKA I am soooooo looking forward to your video about the pancreas, insulin, and diabetes! That’s the video I’ve been waiting for!!! ❤️
I went from 280 lbs. to 194 lbs. in less than 7 months and I was drinking orange juice, apple cider, eating grapes and yogurt almost every day and the yogurt wasn't reduced sugar either it was the regular massively sweetened kind. The difference form before is I cut out drinking juice loaded with high fructose corn syrup as well as the fast food and TV dinners and greatly reduced the ice cream, Italian ices and Snickers bars.
Great vid! Now a question. What’s the difference “health-wise” with simple sugars and these artificial sweeteners like aspartame or sucralose? At least what the body does with them in comparison?
Artificial sweetners don't have glucose but they feel sweet to tongue So while using these sweetners we are not injecting glucose So, blood sugar levels won't increase
This has been very helpful and clear. I eat healthy 99% of the time though so I can replenish my body with nutrients, just eating sugar (which typically comes in high amounts) causes oxidative stress on your cells making the aging process speed up. As well as not eating foods rich in antioxidants (such as donuts, that basically have no nutrients or antioxidants) isn't going to ve good for anyone. Micro nutrients such as the B vitamins also help with energy conversion so if you eating food high in sugar (again mainly junk) you won't really feel energetic or motivated.
I have my degree in Biology. I love this channel. Many of these things I know, but watching this channel helps refresh my memory, also, I do learn things I didn't know as well. There is also a lot of insight in how these things can be applied in daily life.
Has there been a video on the pelvic floor and the different issues associated with it being to tight or too loose? That would be really interesting since culturally the pelvic floor gets overlooked so much.
Also if they know if they have ever had a person with PGAD. Some associate it to Tarlov cysts. But it’s not in every case. Definitely need more research on PGAD! I wish these guys had a comment section just for us to give them idea to work on. They would stay very busy!! Lol
Yes, it’s very important for men to keep up with pelvic floor exercises. Kegel exercises for men can strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, which support the bladder and bowel and affect sexual function (erectile dysfunction) which statistically is rampant. Most men over 35 have used a pill out of necessity to function sexually when they could be doing exercises to combat the effects of erectile dysfunction. Oh and stopping porn use helps with erectile dysfunction because of the dopamine dumps.
I really love your videos I am actually learning more from your channel than I did at university. Since you covered sugar could you make a video on the body changes of ketosis?
I love this channel! Because of this channel, I’ve become more mindful of what I eat and have changed my diet. So thank you for all this useful knowledge!
What a complete wholesome video it is, I have searching content on sugar for days, and no one has explained the topic in this much detail without sounding boring yk
Men I love you guys.... Thank you for your work... A cancer cell was detected in the liver, it's a small one at it's early stage. Mentioning sugar stored in the liver as glycogen makes sense... This means that sugar intake should be greatly reduced
I did a test on myself, no sugar and carbs ..only boiled vegetables and salads, grilled or boiled meat I like meat😊, boiled eggs , cheese sometimes , fruits that contain less sugar I know is hard but try to avoid,and the most important and not many people know about that is the home made pickle cabbage or you can buy in any East European shop try get the one that came in plastic bag or big container (I am Romanian and we do that at home )I drink one glass of that juice every day and I also make pickle cabbage salad with virgin olive oil ( see the Italian brand that dr Berg uses)and pepper I noticed my BP went down by a lot, energy level skyrocketed, your gut will function properly your bowel movement will improve a lot, oh yeah i exercise every day for 2 hours so you should start doing it slowly it’s a big step
i have found that by reducing my sugar heavy intake, incorperating some more of literally the rest of the nutrients my weight dropped a little and as far as i can tell my overall health went way up. still enjoy sugary foods and drinks but not excesively. like all things moderation is key
Here's the kicker. If you're eating a crap diet like I was, you need to stop sugar altogether to overcome the cravings before you can have the occasional treat. Reason being that you will want more after consuming it. If you get the cravings sorted, you'll have more control and not over indulge. Sugar as explained in high quantities is bad news!
The main problem with sugar is when it's consumed the same time as fat. The fat blocks it's intended absorption and the sugar is redirected as a radical into the bloodstream causing inflammation. So it's best to keep your fat consumption separate. I reserve fats and complex carbohydrates to dinner and have no sugars during or afterwards, no desert!
I sooooooo love these videos you produce, I can’t have enough of them 😁 I am in love with anatomy and physiology. I was told it is my responsibility to now how my body works and how it function. Thank you 🙏❤️
This was such an amazing breakdown, and I wholeheartedly appreciate it! I do wonder, how does zero calorie sweeteners (stevia, splenda, allulose, maltitol, erythritol, etc)breakdown in our bodies? Any chance this is on your lists of topics to cover?
Stevia is a natural sweetener along with Erythritol, the rest are artificial sweeteners and I would stay away from them . Dr Greeger already did clinical comparison
@@lll9409 apples contain formaldehyde too. Naming 'scary' sounding chemicals isn't an argument. And methanol is a natural byproduct of the fermentation of many fruits and veggies, and is also naturally found in many.
You can see that this guy is pro sugar - just eat it in moderation! His philosophy is way on the other side of the universe from Keto. If you want to know about keto this is the wrong guy to listen to ...
Utter and total TRUTH! Thus It is not the sugars we take in, but the AMOUNT we take in that can be unhealthy. Hence even too much of a GOOD/HEALTHY foodstuff can be harmful. Result: it is all about BALANCE! (Now where did I put that slice of yesterday's chocolate cake, I want it now... lol) I enjoy watching these informative and educational anatomy and health videos. Educates people on what they did not know! 👍👍
My grandmother consumed so much sugar daily. 5 teaspoons in a small cup of tea. She would drink 3 to 4 cups of tea per day. She loved those Cherry Blossom chocolates and had cake or cookies after every meal. She weighed 325 lbs and was 5’9”. A large woman. At age 70 my parents were afraid she wasn’t going to be around much longer. Well she outlived my father and she died at the age of 97. Never had diabetes or any health issues other than obesity. Some people seem to cope well with sugar. Unfortunately I have her cravings for sugar but I don’t eat as much of it as she did. Not nearly the same amount but at supper every day I love dessert. I have a desk job so I don’t get much exercise and I’m overweight. I just hope I have the same ability to deal with it as my grandmother did. Very interesting video. It puts sugar into perspective.
Just get some muscle on your frame and eat less calories, there are also some supplements you could take which help your body metabolize glucose better, such as sr9009 or cardarine
Sometimes it really is just genetics. I know people who eat all kind of crap, and they remain slim. Others monitor carefully what they eat and still, one cookie 'magically' moves the scale.
@@vilena5308 How true. That’s my case. If I eat any sweets at all I either don’t lose weight or I gain. All my life I’ve had to carefully watch what I eat. Yet I’ve got friends who eat chips and chocolate bars and go to McDonald’s 2 to 3 times per week and they are thin. One is actually so thin he looks like he might fall apart but he eats a tremendous amount of food. Definitely more than what I eat in a day. Genetics has a huge role I’d say.
@@ds99 Here is something that I live by for every gram of fat, you need 2 grams of carbs(sugars) and 4 grams of protein. I try to consume my weight in lbs in grams of protein. Use the formula to figure out how much carbs and fat. That will give you energy, enough that you will feel like getting up and moving around. Also start taking the daily dose of Vitamin B1, B6, B9, and B12. B9 isn't that important as it says on the bottle "for pregnant women", but your wife/girlfriend (or both) will enjoy the side effects that B9 will give you. I'm not a doctor, *BUT* I've been living by that formula for the last 6 years and I can prove the results if you want to look me up on strava under this name. Oh.. .and I am also 57 years old 6'1" ~170 - 175lbs and consume a 10lb bag of sugar in about 3 weeks.
When I was about 3 or 4 we'd visit my grandparents, I'd run to the pantry for sugar jelly candies and eat too many, not just the taste but I love the feeling, the burst of energy.
I am SO happy that this video says it correctly that there's NO difference between refined/added sugar and natural sugars. They get processed the same way.
I love your videos, they're so educational. I would like to see more about sugars' effect on type 2 diabetes, gut health, other autoimmune diseases & cancers. Thanks guys!!
You guys are great, thanks!! i fact checked some statements in this video (not that it was necessary) and ofcourse everything is trustworthy information! I still dont understand why so many people "eliminate sugar radically " from their diets and think they are helping their bodies a lot...
It took me 6 LONG months to kick my lifelong sugar habit. I literally tried every day. I failed, gave up, beat myself up about it, and repeated that process for 6 long ASS months. It was so mentally draining on me that i almost fully quit. Finally, after some miracle, I was able to go an entire month without sugar. I had stevia only a few times, but after that, i ended giving that up, too. Im proud to say i am now 1 year sugar-free with the exception of sugar from fruits like apples and oranges, etc. I haven't had any single cane sugar or artificial sugar for a year now. So damn proud of myself, but I swear to god it was like getting rid of a drug addiction. I felt like i went through withdrawals. Headaches, detoxing, and all. It was bad. I will never go back to eating any sugar whatsoever. Ive lost so much weight, got rid of candida, got rid of tinnitus(ear ringing), no more acne, got rid of my bloated belly, improved gut health, i sleep so much better and my endurance levels have improved. I eat so healthy now that everyone says im a health nut. Lol, I'll take that over being a sugar addict! Im a 34 female with 2 children. Even my kids and husband have kicked the sugar habit. So proud of them!! Once you cut out one bad habit, it makes it easier to cut out other bad habits. So, we also cut out anything processed, seed oils, junk, fast food and anything gluten(pasta bread,tortillas). We now eat an animal based diet with lots of protein, lots of animal fats, & fruits & veggies. Anyways, cutting out sugar is possible it just takes a little time. 😅 Trust me!! 😅😅
Also one rule to live by, is to ALWAYS look and read labels on EVERYTHING!! Sugar is in a lot of things. If it says any added sugar whatsoever I DO NOT BUY IT or EAT IT. I've made it my #1 rule in my house. Absolutely no added sugar. No cane sugar, no stevia, no artificial sugar, no nothing! You have to read the labels on all packaging of food.
But now siince we eat an animal based diet now I don't really have to worry about buying any packaged processed food & reading labels for added sugar since everything we eat is fresh like eggs, steaks, butter, raw dairy, raw cheese, tallow, lamb, chicken, fruits and some veggies. When you eat this way you have all natural ingredients nothing added. Also we try to eat all organic and grassfed as much as possible. It has been life changing getting rid of sugar, gluten, and anything ultra processed. Stop the SAD diet and you will change your life I guarantee it! 💯
Any difference in mental health?
I’m a chocolate aholich my who life. I’m 64. I’ve been on and off sugar. I’m trying again. Good for you and your family! Wish me luck!
I've been carnivore for 10 months. My severe arthritis in my upper and lower back are 90% pain-free. I lost 40 pounds and am tapering off hypothyroid meds.
Everything was good until you mentioned eating only animals fats. Thats not entirely healthy either. Remember balance is the way.
Thank you so much for this.
When I was diagnosed with T2 Diabetes 3 years ago at 32 years old, I was told that it's a degenerative disease. But I've been able to reverse it through exercise before meal, intermittent fasting and a low carb diet.
May you live a long healthy life to keep eucating the masses and removing misinformation about the human body. Thank you

You said a key thing - "reverse." You didn't "cure" it, you reversed it. Many diseases can be reversed, they don't need some magical cure. Glad to hear you're doing well. I lost 60 lbs. over a couple years, without trying, just by doing the things you're doing. I also take quality supplements. At 57 years old, I'm healthier than I've ever been.
This is my story, too. I adopted a low carb diet and reversed my Type 2 diabetes without any medication. The few carbohydrates I eat the better I think, feel and sleep. I have even seen improvements in my Autoimmune symptoms. Everything I was told about the dangers of low carb and ketogenic way of eating has been proven to be a lie. I even watched as the American Diabetes Association, in a most cowardly fashion, finally endorsed this way of eating as an effective means to control, improve and even reverse T2D. Congratulations on your improved health!
Low carb 👍🏼
👏👏 I had gestational diabetes and was told I would either be diabetic or develop it within 5 to 10 years. It was 15 years ago.
Oh dear, sugar was my only vice left. No alcohol, no cigarettes, no salty yummy chips now no chocolates cakes cookies. Still going to sugar my tea and coffee... great information, thank you, I'll expect a card on my 100th birthday in 36yrs
Don"t underestimate the worth of treats for your mental health. I love my weekends where I eat salty chips and treat myself for all the bullshit I need to go through under the week and I definitely feel like a better human being with these weekends than without them
@@its3amagain.feeling better from a unhealthy snack doesn’t mean you’re actually better lmao just a release of dopamine from eating processed foods

I agree 100%!
But his information is not always correct. Sugar from fruits is not the same as refined sugar (table sugar and High-fructose corn syrup), this is a catastrophic misinformation.
@@DX-d You are incorrect. Sugar found in fruits, includes glucose, fructose and sucrose, and polysaccharides. What you are missing is the soluble and insoluble FIBER fruits contain, that refined sugars do not have.
@@fitveganathleteintegrateda1695 some people are just selective hearing. This channel is exactly what OP mentioned.
What? He literally told your refined sugar is not that bad... In a video promoting a sugary drink. Facts? Honesty? That's what this channel lacks. It is an abomination to compare glucose from complex carbs with fiber to glucose boosts from refined sugars.
Well done for telling people that sugar isn't bad so long as you dont take excessive amounts of it and get plenty of exercise. I'm 85 and have consumed a kilo every 6 or 7 weeks throughout my life except during the war when it was rationed, and it has done me no harm. I take it mainly in my tea and burn it off with exercise, so it doesn't make me gain weight. I can still wear the same clothes now that I wore 60 years ago. I dont have any medical conditions to complicate the issue. I go for a 4 mile run once a week and do plenty of walking. Fruit and veg is an important part of my diet.
sadly most of the 100 millions overweight Americans dont do exercise to justify their enormous intake of sugar
I think your genes play a huge part in that too
@@Qtip-in-ear wish we didn't have so much darn sugar in the most obscure things
This is what we call an "anecdote". I congratulate you on your successful maintenance of your health, but others may not share your individual experience. I'm also not sure this anecdote is all that compelling, really, as twenty grams of added sugar a day is a tiny amount compared to what most people are eating. Two cans of soda would get you three times that much right away.
I’m most impressed that you still have the same clothes from 60 years ago.
As a type 2 diabetic I’m so glad I came across this video!!! It explained so much more than my dr has ever explained!!! Thank you for giving me things I can & will do to change my body!!!!

@@Eduardo_Espinoza Yea patients keep his pocket padded;wake up
I had hives on my upper arms for 30-40 YEARS! If I didn’t scratch myself bloody during the day, I did it while sleeping. There were nights I itched so bad that I never slept. I went to every doctor I could think of general practice, neurologist, allergist, dermatologist, on an on. I was put on Gabapentin which caused weight gain, and I was totally miserable. One day a chiropractor told me the scars on my arms looked like her mothers, and her mother stopped eating sugar for a week and a half, and all the hives went away. Done!
Omg... I started getting this rash on my arms and they have become extremely itchy and I have red sores all over them. It looks horrible. I knew I needed to cut down on carbs and sugar because it's causing inflammation and making me feel lousy, but I just realized that maybe it's the cause of my rash. I've looked all over the internet for a cause or a name for it and I can't find anything similar. I'm cutting out sugar completely tomorrow and see if that gets rid of this damn rash! Thanks for your comment.

Really great, informative video! I learned a lot of this in a GenEd nutrition class last semester. A couple of my best takeaways are "You don't need to count calories, just make calories count" meaning avoid empty calories and the "double edged sword of malnutrition", or the tendency to consume too many calories and not enough vitamins, minerals, etc. And the other is "self control is really self care" meaning we make better decisions when we're really taking care of our bodies and not stressing them out, pushing them to their survival instincts. Take care of yourselves friends! I'm hoping the beat for you
Great ! Thanks for sharing it.
I've never seen any evidence for this hyper focus on vitamins/minerals. And if you're worried about those, just eat a multivitamin pill a day.
Very informative, I remember I cut out sugar completely and kept passing out at work. Every-time the ambulance came they told me I needed glucose and it’s the main cause to my fainting, My Dr got on me as well. So just monitor how much you consume is all
These guys make content that SHOULD be taught everywhere around the world in every school. I feel like I would've loved to have all this information back when I was 13 or 14. Decisions would be so different for every person's life with this knowledge. Anatomy is 100x more important than religion or business classes at school, yet we are taught that crap instead of what really matters. (I'm from Colombia btw)

Teachers have to stick to the standards or they get in trouble. Before standardized testing existed in public schools, a teacher could have chosen to teach this. Now, teachers have to teach to the test or get fired. 😞
Pssh, the processed food industry who make junk for our kids and put soda machines in schools won't allow that to happen!

@@MG-hg1sq Seriously?!
Thank you for this video. Good content. My grandfather was born in 1934 and told me that back then, people only had a sugar cube during holidays and special times. It was rare to have sugar from other sources rather than fruits or other natural foods. No sweets in stores, nothing. Nowadays, stores are full. He passed away 2 years ago but he loved the snacks that we always had for him. Have a nice day 🌟
It was the same in my grandparents’ day, but their diet did contain a lot of bread and potatoes because of poverty. My grandmother and all seven of her siblings had type 2 diabetes. There was obviously a strong genetic component, but diet triggered it. Too many starchy foods is equivalent to eating too much sugar.
My Mother has candies and sugar. She's 91 and still going strong. Lots of sugar over the years.
Our celebratory foods have become our daily foods.
The trouble with youtube videos is that you can make every effort to produce a balanced and fair video and there will still be trolls and detractors that swarm the comments to call BS without providing evidence.
These people are not trolls or paid. They are slaves to their opinions and beliefs. It's a real shame.
Just don't read the comments 😊
@@reginesinatra8213 If one could through utube, categorize them with good to bad, would be helpful. They say that most are run through algorithms then why not have an algorithm that picks up on negativity as well?
I see this many times in many videos that share great information and then all of a sudden, bang, here come the onslaught of naysayers. The producers can't always take the time to delete these but I think they can set up a guideline for the good and bad. It is a shame that this happens but, taking the good also means accepting the bad. Like say, just don't read them. Something I've tried to learn to do as I myself sift through the comment sections. It's hard and doable. This podcast has so much to learn from, I can only thank this channel for giving us a different perspective. Here's what will say to all that post negative comments. I'll take your with a mere grain of salt. Sometimes I may pick up something you may say and what I will call, "Recycle" your thoughts into a more productive picture. You see, I will show even those that cannot, some respect, regardless of your viewpoint. The human species is a remarkable biological specimen, one that is strong but so very vulnerable in so many ways. What I may learn from any one source may differ from another and thus I can only weigh in that when all of what I may ingest for my own mind to sort out. Any conclusions are mine and mine alone. When and if I may share my thoughts, they come with an invitation for discussion. When I present this as an invitation, it is that I offer out my thoughts on any subject so myself and anyone within this discussion may proceed to find relevance to our findings together. My whole makeup is not to disprove another's view but to learn something from that view and hopefully improve on myself from that.
I'm predisposed for diabetes and these videos really help me understand how and why things happen the way they do. They have been invaluable in understanding the disease, and what I have to look forward to if I don't address it. Thanks!
Diabetes is a barrier between blood sugar and glycogen storage. Type 1 is caused by a weak and failing pancreas (usually the immune system has attacked it) that doesn't produce insulin (in significant quantities if at all). Type 2 is the cells are unresponsive to insulin - usually because the receptor sites are clogged up with fat.
Regarding diabetes take a look at this doctor conference: ruclips.net/video/gaY4m00wXpw/видео.html
The doctor refers to chronic diseases specifically which includes diabetes and in this Ted talk he explains how he can make them disappear
I love your channel. Even as a health care worker for 30 years you continue to teach us more information in a more comprehensive and clear way than many teachers can or do! (Though they do try). Thank you!
As a type 2 diabetic I have educated myself over the years to understand most of what you're describing here. But this is the most comprehensive piece I have ever seen on the subject. Fantastic!
Awesome!🎉
Check out Dr Sten Ekberg he delves deep into the world of ketogenic lifestyle and its benefits and science behind it
I’m from Thailand and follow your channel for a year. I like the way of your explanation; especially, the cause and effect of a ton of glucose digesting. “Glucose” is “Glucose”. Our body doesn’t know where it came from. I think we can control our glucose in the bloodsteam by optimizing or balancing our food intake, resting and activities (exercises). Moreover, I’m looking forward to watching your insulin and diabetes video. Thank you for the excellent topic.
this explains so much!!! i just cut out so much sugar from my diet, primarily the “added sugars” because i thought they were so bad for me. i have a better understanding of how this works now, and though i will still keep it to a minimum i feel a lot more comfortable. i exercise daily so although i won’t eat it daily, i feel more comfortable to occasionally indulge 😊
Be careful it’s addictive once you’re off the stuff you’re best to stay away for me there’s so many good substitute fresh fruit nuts berries and heavy whip cream is OK does not have sugar in it there’s all kinds of substitutes. With substance to it so that you’re not hungry and eating again in 10 minutes
I think this video actually helped me understand why I'm hyperglycemic; I've always been on the taller and skinnier side, quite lean with a somewhat toned amount of muscle. It's extremely difficult for me to gain a significant amount of fat and I've never been fat or able to put on large amounts of it. So it seems that, if my body is unable to store that much glycogen in my muscles or my liver, and I am unable to remove the glucose from my blood by turning it into fat, then much more of my glucose would remain in my blood then the average person who can put on more fat than I can, hence the tendency for my blood sugar levels to be high and for me to be hyperglycemic/prediabetic. I'm trying to understand anatomy and my body better so I can adjust my diet and daily eating habits to better lower my blood sugar level so I can avoid developing Type 2 Diabetes, so this video has been somewhat helpful. Thank you!
ur just not eating enough to become fat
I’m actually in a very similar situation! This comment helped me thanks!
I can totally relate, thank you for sharing. I call myself "skinny fat" because I'm sure that if it wasn't because of my skinny/tall genetics, I would be obese due to the way I've eaten throughout my life.

This is by far the best explanation about this subject that Ihave ever seen. It is clear, concise and embeds all the individual pieces of information in an overall context. I feel like I got the best value for the 17: 30 minutes I spent of my lifetime. You have earned a subscription and I am looking forward to see more classes in the same quality level in the future. 👍
Well said. It’s so clear.
A super helpful explanation of the pros and cons of 'sugar.' Because the topic is so confusing, it's not easy to convince people to reduce their sugar consumption. This video is very persuasive in an a unbiased, factual and friendly way. Bravo!
The conclusion to every video I’ve realized is basically exercise is the most important thing for overall health
Proper nutrition first, then exercise
Food takes first place
nope
@@fomo1 Actually BOTH in equal importance.
And sleep, sleep, diet and exercise
Thank you for explaining why exercise helps to reduce fat storage. For decades Ive been told to exercise more but no health care professional has been prepared to explain it to me. i dont follow orders well without understanding their purpose but this video has encouraged me to make more effort. Many thanks.
I’m so appreciative of how informative these videos are & that you’ve made them accessible to those of us who are not medical personnel or research scientists. Thank you!
Thanks!
This is such an excellent video, thank you!! I knew eating an orange was better than eating a donut, but I never really knew why. Your explanation about how processed sugar is problematic due to how easy it is to consume way too much of it really makes sense to me. Thanks again!
Great video, can relate to this, living with an incurable disease is so hard, but you just have to live life day by day as it goes by (Cancer sucks)'

This video is just ridiculously well elaborated. Thank you for the informative upload. It really helps deconstruct some of the half-truths or outright lies that are being spread around by uneducated and self proclaimed fitness gurus and social media influencers.
It's also just difficult to avoid the extra sugar, as it's in EVERYTHING and that you need to always check every label. It's difficult to avoid the hidden sugars.
Agreed
You should be avoiding anything from a box or a package. Stick to wholefoods and you can't go wrong.
I stopped eating anything with added sugar in boxes or sodas. Regular soda is bad with the added sugar. I drink diet coke and water only. Ever since I left the added sugars and got my sugars from berries and veggies I have felt better. Avoid anything that has added sugar. Theres snacks with sugar free but those are bad too but not nearly as bad as regular table sugar.
Yeah. For example if I buy a whole piece of cheese (haha that rhymes xD ) there´s no sugar in it. But if I buy the same cheese presliced, sugar has been added. Same with sausage for bread. The sugar helps to maintain color and keep the food from becoming bad.
So true.. I just try to avoid the obvious ones like candy, soda and most juice. A can of Pepsi has a ridiculous amount of sugar. I can barely finish a can but some people will drink 7 to 10 of them a day and wonder why they’re fat. Soda needs to be regulated more, there should be a limit on the sugar they can put. This is what causes severe obesity, food can only get you so big. I never met a obese person who doesn’t drink a ton of soda. One thing my mom did was stop buying soda for the house and she will buy a few bottles of juice. She would say if you want it go buy it yourself, I’m never buying soda for the house again. All my friends would always tell me I never have anything to eat in my house. My parents didn’t buy junk food, everything had to be cooked. If they did buy some junk food my brother would demolish it in one sitting! Lol I was always 150 to 170 lbs at 6 ft I recently got to 190. The lockdown really got to me lol.
I'm addict to chemical substances. In baby steps I'm quiting one by one. Now I'm working on sugar. And honestly, it's harder then alcohol.
Decreasing or quitting sugar all together can definitely be hard. Good luck!
That’s the key is baby steps for long term success. Good luck to you!
Yes I agree..

Awesome videos! But sugar’s effect on oral cavity disease was bypassed. Dental caries and periodontal disease have a huge effect on systemic health.
Thanks!
You bet!
Also the other benefit of eating complex carbohydrates over simple sugars is that the digestive process is more complex requiring more energy spent by the body to break them down to their monosaccharides constituents, thereby preventing that calorie excess which comes from easily digestible sugars.
I am completely dependent on sugar, caffeine, nicotine and alcohol. Once decided to quit all of them at the same time, unfortunately it lasted 66 days. It was great experience , after days I felt no crave for all of them. In the final day I smoked cigarette with coffee, eating very sweet turkish helva
What i like the most is the way he explained the content . Of course the content he had taught is very factual and useful obviously. But the way he had taken the entire discussion and screenplay of his narration is what made the video stand apart
Very excited for the upcoming video(s) on diabetes and insulin! Hope it covers types besides T1D and T2D (bonus points for a mention of diabetes insipidus), explaining why certain symptoms, complications, and comorbidities are so common, and a special focus on clearing up misconceptions. There’s certainly no shortage of those. It’s difficult finding resources to share that are both scientifically accurate, and explained in a way that won’t entirely overwhelm people who have little to no prior knowledge on biochemistry.
Watch Dr.Berg you tube channel he's got over 3,000 videos and has helped soooooo many people with several different health issues... You won't regret it
Thank you for mentioning diabetes insipidus. When he made the point about two types of "diabetes," I thought he would,
but, alas; disappointment.

I’ve been addicted to sugar since I was a kid. I’ve kicked meth, other drugs, and cigarettes after being addicted for years and they were easy to give up in comparison! I’m still trying and I haven’t had sugar for 14 days now. I’m trying a carnivore type diet to lose weight and give up my constant craving for sugar and carbs....so far so good!
I’m addicted to it too, hang in there. You got this, I believe in you ♥️
So you're sitting around spooning from a bag of sugar?
Good job!!! 🎉
I just got diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes last week and today this video showed up on my RUclips suggestions. I've been remiss, lately, in keeping up with your videos. I would have seen this already if I hadn't kept up to date with you guys. That'll teach me, lol. I can't wait to see the ones on diabetes. I always feel better knowing exactly what's happening in my body. Thanks again for your wonderful work. And Happy Holidays!
Try cutting out all fat foods. Did you know that most calories in a chocolate 🍫 isn’t from sugar? It’s from the fat. So don’t get in the trap of cutting “sugar” and replacing it with fatty foods. Also eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. Don’t eat nuts. They are mostly fats.
I'll give you a suggestion based on research and personal experience. Cut out all the carbohydrates, bread tortillas etc. Don't drink any sugary drink or add any sugar to coffee. I have revered my diabetes in 8 month from 400 to 95. No medication
Would love to hear more about regular sugar (over)consumption relative to type 2 diabetes, gut health, and cancer
We will add it to the list! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this!
I have bone marrow cancer and I'm always hearing that sugar feeds cancer.
I'm so curious to hear more about this!
@@joey_5060 I am not a medical doctor but a biologist. Sugar feeds all cells. Cancer cells tend to have a faster growth rate and therefor need more nutrients to keep up with the pace. This is what we do in the lab when we culture certain types of cancer cells: we have specific media with a high glucose content.
This is the theory but restricting your diet to cauliflower is not going to cure you. Listen to your doctor, get proper care and try to keep up with a healthy lifestyle. Stay strong, you will defeat it :)
@@tim-tim-timmy6571 - "listen to your doctor" is the worst advice on the planet in my experience.
@@joey_5060 That's true, they can take up sugar excess more than other cells (beyond fat cells) because they want to uncontrollably replicate. Doing keto may help by making the body run mostly on ketones and stabilize blood sugar to lower levels that feed you without feeding the cancer to the same extent
I can't wait for your upcoming series on diabetes because I just got diagnosed with type 2 in May. Since then, I've cut out all the candy, cake, pies, etc. that I had been eating, started doing my old PT exercises every day, and I've dropped my A1C from 7 to 6.6 and lost around 14 pounds - without meds, but they will probably come later, given that diabetes is progressive. I'm eating a lot more whole foods, too.
You won't need the meds if you also cut out pastas, bread, crackers, biscuits, cereals and most fruits and any sugar drinks. Keep exercising and stick to meat, eggs, greens, lower carb vegetables, and berries.
It's not progressive, it's completely reversible
@@ExplorerBen7 That's about what I've done. I'm not exactly young, so if the diabetes gets harder to control with just this method, I'll do what my doctor wants. And I haven't had a sugar drink in years.
@@miriambucholtz9315 nice, yeah just keep doing that and you should be good. 80% of the time health issues can be reversed or prevented with exercise and diet changes, doctors mostly only know meds.
A channel I found helpful for diabetes and recipes is called “Beat diabetes!”. The man in the channel is diabetic himself and had lots of great recipes and info!
Requesting that you do a video on people who use ketones for an energy source as opposed to consuming sugars. Thank you.
And now no one can question my methods of training people. I have written an article on fat loss and how the majority of the fitness industry is a fad, help a middle aged lady lose weight and her diabetes so she can enjoy the foods she wants, and now you have just reaffirmed everything I have been preaching. Much appreciated my man!
Thank you so much for this video! I am a fun medical case…. Cystic Fibrosis diagnosed at age 2, and I developed CF related diabetes in my early 20’s. I know and understand a good amount about the human body, but sugars still don’t make a lot of sense to me. You guys are so informative and entertaining, so I love to learn more by watching your videos!!!
This one is definitely worthy of a rewatch
So VERY interesting! I never understood exactly how all these systems worked together in our bodies before. Thanks for bringing it all together in just one video. Want to encourage others toward that exercise & movement -- something I more or less loved & grew up on. Just the way we were designed -- Amen! No wonder it works. Thanks again.

This video really clarifies many missconceptions that were being taught to people about sugars.
Can you guys do a video about Ulcers, especially mouth ulcers. Which typically cure in 7-15 days but cause a lot of discomfort. There is really very less information on there causes and how the body reacts to them and their healing process.
What misconceptions?
Ye same honestly. I thought all sugar was bad. But since I'm an active person I should consider getting more sugar in my diet as I wasn't getting enough at all before. Plus that explains my serious sugar craving issue when I began to workout
there is a mouth rinse for ulcers. takes 3-4 days to heal. It should be in dental section with all the rinses and tooth pastes.
@@Stirling-Shade Cookies and creme Hershey Kisses are my recommendation. I can a pack in my desk drawer. I pop 1 in my mouth mid way through my work outs. The nice scent of them also is a nice addition. Obviously moderation though
I am very surprised that only spoke of our body running on sugar. This is not very accurate, nor efficient. Our body can run on ketones far more efficiently and this avoids the danger of excessive insulin and therefore diabetes. Dr berg has amazing videos on this subject. Running our body on sugar and carbs has serious health risks........I have been off carbs and sugar for 2 years and the difference is truly amazing. I recommend it anytime. Intermittent fasting without the sugars and carbs is the answer.
Five years for me. Dr Berg 👍🏼
You're right that your body can run off ketones as well as glucose, but it does this as a last resort fail safe when your body is a state of semi-stavation, it's definitely not safer than glucose-atp synthesis. Ketones are quite literally toxins that do free radical damage to your tissues, and push your blood pH buffer systems to the limit. Not consuming enough carbs for years on end puts you a huge risk for ketoacidosis, low-grade acidosis, kidney stones, islet of langerhans atrophy, gut dysbiosis, left ventricular atrophy and literally so many other health concerns. It puts stress on all of your organ and hormonal systems and generally isn't recommended long term . Idk what kinda cult Dr. Berg has going on but be careful folks :/
This explains a lot about why I feel tired and sluggish after sugary snacks. Time to find healthier alternatives
Great breakdown of sugar. I'd add that the human body does not need sugar from food for survival as the liver produces all the "sugar" you need. However, you do need to eat fiber (both soluble and insoluble) to feed your gut microbiome.
You dont need sugar like you dont need money or a house.
This is exactly the answer I've been looking for for years. The popular opinion is that sugar = bad, drink diet drinks, but not via aspartame, etc. I can see how say a weight lifter would still opt for the diet if they were on a calorie restricted diet, but aside from that, if you absolutely need to satisfy your sweet tooth and you're active, having a normal sugar is probably more beneficial for your body than a "diet" option solely based on the positive effects in the body via recharging glycogen stores. In essence, the takeaway is MODERATION is king, as with most things.
Awesome video!!!
In all my years of looking at sugar and carbohydrate videos, this is by far the best. Factual and realistic. Thank you
I really really enjoyed this one. I'm studying to become a personal trainer and even though I know the info, it's hard for me to explain to other sometimes. This helped a ton. Thanks!
What he didn't talk about was that added sugars, especially high-fructose corn syrup, are more readily stored as fat in the liver itself leading to fatty liver disease, they produce AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products) which directly damage cells, and they cause a systemic inflammation response resulting in vessel damage and many other disorders.
It's excess refined sugar and HFCS that actually cause many of the heart and vascular conditions blamed on dietary cholesterol. Cholesterol is a vital substance which your body actually needs and literally produces on its own. But when excess sugar damages your vessels, cholesterol is part of the body's attempts to fix the problem. When you keep your body in a constant state of inflammation, cholesterol builds up and can result in atherosclerosis, heart damage, etc.
I love this outstanding presentation for the valuable educational content that it provides. However, I felt that there were critical caveats that he had not covered (perhaps he covers these in a subsequent presentation). So I very much thank you for taking the time to add your critically important comments. I believe that we are created beings and that our bodies are incredibly intricate machines. I therefore believe that the naturally occurring, delicious fruits and vegetables that are available to us were created by our loving creator so as to provide us a way to optimum health.
He quite literally covers this general concept in the middle of the video.
I got hospitalised aa
I still want apple pie
It's both, dietary cholesterol acts like oil and water in your blood. When those fats are inside your blood they coat your cells and make it impossible for insulin to reach the cell. If it happens to your arterial cells then you develop a wound where those cells die. Then your body starts to clot that spot. And as you continue to eat fattier meals you keep preventing your body from utilizing energy and healing. And thus more and more fat starts to accumulate in that clot. Again I don't know why people keep trying to justify eating cholesterol as a positive thing. When your body requires you to put that cholesterol into your blood to be utilized. And putting oil in water is never a good idea. That is why when your body makes its own cholesterol which it makes all that it needs it has carrier molecules that make sure that it doesn't have that impact. Saturated fat is even worse. So in combination it's deadly. The deadly combo is a burger with high saturated fat and cholesterol mixed with a bunch of starchy fries that are fried and really rancid oxidized oil, mixed with a high fructose corn syrup sugar drink, and throw in some caffeine there just to raise your blood pressure along with the salt. It's the type of stuff that shouldn't be allowed to be sold to children. Probably worse than a cigarette. Eat plants folks. They only make you healthier.
What I'm missing here is the issue of _refined_ sugar. It is not sugar per se that is dangerous, it's the refined version, which can be absorbed very quickly. This triggers an insulin surge, and can be one of the factors for Type 2 diabetes because the cells develop a tolerance for insulin. Sugar in fruit and natural foods is absolutely fine. For one, there is not much of it compared to the other stuff like fibre. A litre of orange juice contains juice from 2kg of oranges - you can easily drink a litre of juice, you'll struggle to eat 2kg of oranges. It also isn't as immediately available as the refined sugar. A significant part of the sugar is locked within the cells of your fruit and veg, and it takes time to break this matrix down and absorb the sugar. And you get all that fibre as well (juicing is stupid, ask any dietician).
sugar is sugar your body is trying to refine it when it breaks it down with digestion that is refined sugar and right when at the instannce in the moment you absorb it it is refined and your body wants to absorb the refined version because thats what it is trying to do when your body goes through the process becoming processed sugar and at the given time when its done breaking down the fibre there is o way you're not absorbing the same refined sugar as you would straight from the bag thats what your body is goiing for anyways it prefers it youre trying to give yourself direct access to the straight up available sugar and in the end that is what you get your body extracts it all the same you don't need to have a filter your body is 100% efficient at utilizing sugar , the sugar phobic community is insane.
@@thebraininsideahead Try using some interpunction, this is outright painful to read and makes your comment seem even sillier than it is already.
*Of course* sugar is sugar, and at the point when it is being used in your body there is no difference whether it came from an apple or from a bag of sugar, but there is bloody well a difference in terms of how it is absorbed within your body. Which is the whole bloody point of my post. When you consume refined sugar it goes into your metabolism all at once, and your body has to work hard to keep this surge down, counteracting it by a surge of insulin and converting it into fatty tissue. But when the sugar is released slowly - as is the case when you're digesting fruit and vegetables - there is no emergency and the sugar gets consumed during the normal operation of the body. You surely *must* understand the difference between downing a bottle of wine, and drinking it with a meal during the course of an evening, don't you?
There is nothing "sugar phobic" in my comment, quite the opposite: I'm stating that the bad consequences of consuming sugar are not connected to all types of sugar, and that you *CAN* consume it from the fruit and vegetables without problems. You can also consumed refined sugar without problems, but only when you're doing heavy exercise and burn it off immediately. So do us all a favour and learn to read (and write) before embarrassing yourself with such a comment.
Refined sugar is to whole foods what heroin and morphine are to poppy flowers. Refined sugar is basically a drug.
Not at all, He uses the term "table sugar" for that my friend
@@horrovac punctuation. Not interpunction. There's no such word.
Really interesting. Would be great to have a Part 2 that provides the same type of analysis, of the sugar substitutes. For example, a sugary soft drink versus a diet soft drink. Thanks!
YES! It’s so controversial. However, if you read research from the American diabetes association, the consensus is that artificial sweeteners are not “bad.”
Both are bad unless you have an energy sudden drop.
Also fasting
Erythritol, xylitol, stevia, allulose, monkfruit are all great alternatives to glucose and fructose. Make sure it's non-gmo and preferably organic. Xylitol even cleans your teeth while you eat it. Zevia is the only soda I would drink, if you need one. I've recently added fruit back into my diet and after cutting out sugar it is so much sweeter. I'll even have about tbsp of honey everyday. I do still have my zevia when I want a soda.
hi..they are both bad!
Stick with water!
After having had pancreatitis and DKA I am soooooo looking forward to your video about the pancreas, insulin, and diabetes! That’s the video I’ve been waiting for!!! ❤️
I went from 280 lbs. to 194 lbs. in less than 7 months and I was drinking orange juice, apple cider, eating grapes and yogurt almost every day and the yogurt wasn't reduced sugar either it was the regular massively sweetened kind. The difference form before is I cut out drinking juice loaded with high fructose corn syrup as well as the fast food and TV dinners and greatly reduced the ice cream, Italian ices and Snickers bars.
Good job!
I love anecdotes
It's not the sugar in the ice cream or snickers bar..... it's the fat
Great vid! Now a question. What’s the difference “health-wise” with simple sugars and these artificial sweeteners like aspartame or sucralose? At least what the body does with them in comparison?
ruclips.net/video/5h5IABzlj8w/видео.html
I think this video can help you answer those questions.
I would be interested in that video as well. Especially when there are so many sweeteners available today with each making their own health claims.
Artificial sweetners don't have glucose but they feel sweet to tongue
So while using these sweetners we are not injecting glucose
So, blood sugar levels won't increase
artificial sweeteners do functionally nothing aside from stimulating certain taste receptors in the tongue.
Well sometimes there’s still traces of sulfur in granulated sugars because of the way it’s processed that’s all I know
This has been very helpful and clear. I eat healthy 99% of the time though so I can replenish my body with nutrients, just eating sugar (which typically comes in high amounts) causes oxidative stress on your cells making the aging process speed up. As well as not eating foods rich in antioxidants (such as donuts, that basically have no nutrients or antioxidants) isn't going to ve good for anyone. Micro nutrients such as the B vitamins also help with energy conversion so if you eating food high in sugar (again mainly junk) you won't really feel energetic or motivated.
I have my degree in Biology. I love this channel. Many of these things I know, but watching this channel helps refresh my memory, also, I do learn things I didn't know as well. There is also a lot of insight in how these things can be applied in daily life.
Has there been a video on the pelvic floor and the different issues associated with it being to tight or too loose? That would be really interesting since culturally the pelvic floor gets overlooked so much.
We guys think it’s very important
You're right, Amanda.
Also if they know if they have ever had a person with PGAD. Some associate it to Tarlov cysts. But it’s not in every case. Definitely need more research on PGAD! I wish these guys had a comment section just for us to give them idea to work on. They would stay very busy!! Lol
Yes, it’s very important for men to keep up with pelvic floor exercises. Kegel exercises for men can strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, which support the bladder and bowel and affect sexual function (erectile dysfunction) which statistically is rampant. Most men over 35 have used a pill out of necessity to function sexually when they could be doing exercises to combat the effects of erectile dysfunction. Oh and stopping porn use helps with erectile dysfunction because of the dopamine dumps.

I love this channel! Because of this channel, I’ve become more mindful of what I eat and have changed my diet. So thank you for all this useful knowledge!
What a complete wholesome video it is, I have searching content on sugar for days, and no one has explained the topic in this much detail without sounding boring yk
Men I love you guys.... Thank you for your work... A cancer cell was detected in the liver, it's a small one at it's early stage. Mentioning sugar stored in the liver as glycogen makes sense... This means that sugar intake should be greatly reduced
I did a test on myself, no sugar and carbs ..only boiled vegetables and salads, grilled or boiled meat I like meat😊, boiled eggs , cheese sometimes , fruits that contain less sugar I know is hard but try to avoid,and the most important and not many people know about that is the home made pickle cabbage or you can buy in any East European shop try get the one that came in plastic bag or big container (I am Romanian and we do that at home )I drink one glass of that juice every day and I also make pickle cabbage salad with virgin olive oil ( see the Italian brand that dr Berg uses)and pepper I noticed my BP went down by a lot, energy level skyrocketed, your gut will function properly your bowel movement will improve a lot, oh yeah i exercise every day for 2 hours so you should start doing it slowly it’s a big step
Vegetables are carbs 👍🏼
Yeah, I would really, really, REALLY love to see an explanation of insulin and diabetes and why particular foods affect the process. Thanks!
Check out the book Metabolical by Dr. Robert Lustig
I like that some people watch videos about the harm of sugar, but they still eat it, as addicts can't get off a dose of heroin, irony.
Understanding my own body is a true gift. Thanks to you and the information shared I am more at home in my own skin! You make a difference thank you
Everything in MODERATION. Your life is counting on you to protect it.
i have found that by reducing my sugar heavy intake, incorperating some more of literally the rest of the nutrients my weight dropped a little and as far as i can tell my overall health went way up. still enjoy sugary foods and drinks but not excesively. like all things moderation is key
Here's the kicker. If you're eating a crap diet like I was, you need to stop sugar altogether to overcome the cravings before you can have the occasional treat. Reason being that you will want more after consuming it. If you get the cravings sorted, you'll have more control and not over indulge. Sugar as explained in high quantities is bad news!
The main problem with sugar is when it's consumed the same time as fat. The fat blocks it's intended absorption and the sugar is redirected as a radical into the bloodstream causing inflammation. So it's best to keep your fat consumption separate. I reserve fats and complex carbohydrates to dinner and have no sugars during or afterwards, no desert!
Having fiber, fats, and proteins first... and carbs and sugars afterwards, actually prevents high glucose spikes.
Thanks, well done. You did a very balanced review of sugar, which is a breath of fresh air in today's world.

This was such an amazing breakdown, and I wholeheartedly appreciate it! I do wonder, how does zero calorie sweeteners (stevia, splenda, allulose, maltitol, erythritol, etc)breakdown in our bodies? Any chance this is on your lists of topics to cover?
Agreed
Stevia is a natural sweetener along with Erythritol, the rest are artificial sweeteners and I would stay away from them . Dr Greeger already did clinical comparison
Badly. Splenda into methanol and fimaldehyde. Not good things. Artifucial sweeteners make you crave carbs.
@@lll9409 apples contain formaldehyde too. Naming 'scary' sounding chemicals isn't an argument.

My grandmother consumed so much sugar daily. 5 teaspoons in a small cup of tea. She would drink 3 to 4 cups of tea per day. She loved those Cherry Blossom chocolates and had cake or cookies after every meal. She weighed 325 lbs and was 5’9”. A large woman. At age 70 my parents were afraid she wasn’t going to be around much longer. Well she outlived my father and she died at the age of 97. Never had diabetes or any health issues other than obesity. Some people seem to cope well with sugar. Unfortunately I have her cravings for sugar but I don’t eat as much of it as she did. Not nearly the same amount but at supper every day I love dessert. I have a desk job so I don’t get much exercise and I’m overweight. I just hope I have the same ability to deal with it as my grandmother did. Very interesting video. It puts sugar into perspective.
Just get some muscle on your frame and eat less calories, there are also some supplements you could take which help your body metabolize glucose better, such as sr9009 or cardarine
Sometimes it really is just genetics.
I know people who eat all kind of crap, and they remain slim.
Others monitor carefully what they eat and still, one cookie 'magically' moves the scale.
@@vilena5308 How true. That’s my case. If I eat any sweets at all I either don’t lose weight or I gain. All my life I’ve had to carefully watch what I eat. Yet I’ve got friends who eat chips and chocolate bars and go to McDonald’s 2 to 3 times per week and they are thin. One is actually so thin he looks like he might fall apart but he eats a tremendous amount of food. Definitely more than what I eat in a day. Genetics has a huge role I’d say.
@@ds99 Here is something that I live by for every gram of fat, you need 2 grams of carbs(sugars) and 4 grams of protein. I try to consume my weight in lbs in grams of protein. Use the formula to figure out how much carbs and fat. That will give you energy, enough that you will feel like getting up and moving around. Also start taking the daily dose of Vitamin B1, B6, B9, and B12. B9 isn't that important as it says on the bottle "for pregnant women", but your wife/girlfriend (or both) will enjoy the side effects that B9 will give you. I'm not a doctor, *BUT* I've been living by that formula for the last 6 years and I can prove the results if you want to look me up on strava under this name. Oh.. .and I am also 57 years old 6'1" ~170 - 175lbs and consume a 10lb bag of sugar in about 3 weeks.
Sugar is an addiction and the last couple sentences of this post is proof. :(
When I was about 3 or 4 we'd visit my grandparents, I'd run to the pantry for sugar jelly candies and eat too many, not just the taste but I love the feeling, the burst of energy.
I am SO happy that this video says it correctly that there's NO difference between refined/added sugar and natural sugars. They get processed the same way.
I love your videos, they're so educational. I would like to see more about sugars' effect on type 2 diabetes, gut health, other autoimmune diseases & cancers. Thanks guys!!
You guys are great, thanks!!
i fact checked some statements in this video (not that it was necessary) and ofcourse everything is trustworthy information!
I still dont understand why so many people "eliminate sugar radically " from their diets and think they are helping their bodies a lot...
