    In December I thought I was having heart failure. My BP was up. My pulse all over. I felt horrific. I quit sugar again (not my 1st time). Five days later I was fine. True story.

      Yep. I was having back pain. My chiropractor said he thought it’s inflammation. And I know that inflammation comes mainly from a sugary diet. So I quit.. and within 3 days that pain was gone. So I canceled my follow up appointment. 😅
      3 days after my husband quit sugar, the pain in his feet went away. 👍🏻😁

      Try enjoying healthier desserts, maybe learn to make some. Also try replacing the white rice and pasta (if you consume them) with brown rice or quinoa and a spinach base pasta). See if you can find or order online a 'healthier' soda such as GUS (grown up soda) or similar. Lastly do your own research....nothing drives the point home like what you read and understand for yourself.
      The slow reduction of sugar in the foods you consume and the drinks will result in almost immediate benefits that you will feel which will in turn increase your desire to stick with the replacements. In short, any significant reduction in sugar consumption beats no change at all. Wishing you the best and you can do it! 👍

    Having a little bit of sugar when one is a sugar addict has the same outcome as an alcoholic having one drink. A sugar addict is easily triggered by a little sugar which can lead to binge eating it and a relapse.

Then when I came here I was amazed of all the food and pastry that I have try ,mmm...it was Soo... delicious! But that enjoyment of wonderful foods it didn't take for very long...I was only 31 year's old when I found out that I have high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high cholesterol and my triglycerides was very high of course, then my gallbladder was taken out because it was full of stones., My doctor he never sugar coated me...he told me that if I don't change of the way I eat I will never be able to make it to the age of 40. And if I DO! I will be in a handful of medication! It was the most depressing day of My life, but even though it is Soo hard to make the change I did it gradually and now I'm 43 years old and I am not taken any of medication. I only take supplements and fresh garlic.

I put it back and purchased a bag of wild caught shrimp. Either corporations are adding sugar to cover the taste of poor ingredients or they are trying to addict the consumer.

My blood sugar, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, blood pressure, and waist circumference all were off the chart. I cut out sugar. I increased good fats. I started working out again, and NOTHING STRENUOUS, LIKE CROSS FIT, WHICH I THINK IS horrible FOR THE BODY, but simply fast walking, core workouts, and light weights. I am down 25 pounds, my BP and sugar are back to normal, and my triglycerides decreased by 77 points.

    I’ve been doing a keto/carnivore diet since 2019. I lost 52 pounds postmenopausal and have basically maintained my weight within 2 to 3 pounds of my loss up-to-date. I feel great! I do use Stevia in my coffee and I am a coffee connoisseur. I have two regular cups of coffee in the morning but I do drink a few cups of decaf throughout the day simply because I love the taste of coffee. I guess you could say the Stevia is my downfall if I were to only have one, that is it. It’s the natural organic type, but I suppose, too much of anything is no good ….we all know that. It hasn’t affected the scale, but the more I read about Stevia I find it does affect the Microbiome environment. According to Dr. Lustig, there are 52 names for sugar that are buried in an ingredient food list.

I drink a lot more water but I like ice cream and desserts. I got your books doctor and I try to cut as much as I can but in Canada it is so easy to find a sugar product.It is struggling to go to the market.

      The slow reduction of sugar in the foods you consume and the drinks will result in almost immediate benefits that you will feel which will in turn increase your desire to stick with the replacements. In short, any significant reduction in sugar consumption beats no change at all. Wishing you the best and you can do it! 👍

    Here is something I recently learned. I have always been told 120/80 BP was good. Today I was tested at 120/73 and the nurse said that my BP was really good. But then I went online and it says that 120 is pushing the levels of pre-hypertension, I also learned that the new standard of health is 130/80. I have found that there is a correlation of systolic with V02 max and diastolic and resting heart rate. Not sure if this is medically true or not, but seems to correlate.

    Sugar also saved my life. During an awful UC flareup, I was losing so much blood most of the time that I used the bathroom and I was using the bathroom up to 10 to 15 times a day with nothing but liquid diarrhea all day for 3 months. It was a never ending nightmare. But something that helped my body maintain energy was sugar. White bread was something my body loved and all those carbs helped me in so many ways. The sugary sports drinks also helped me feel more normal and energetic. In fact, I almost fainted one day, and sugar brought me right back. I still eat sugar and foods that turn into sugar. I also exercise everyday and feel super healthy these days. My gut is working again, no more blood, and normal stools. I still enjoy sweets in moderation. In fact, I no longer drink caffein, but carbs and sugar give me steady energy throughout the day and I don't crash like I used to with caffein. Sugar is not bad, it's the way you consume it that can be bad and what kind of conditions that also determine if you should avoid sugar. But for people like me, sugar is a life saver.

    • @lindajones4849

      You had an unusual and very serious medical condition . I'm surprised you didn't need IV hydration and hospitalization. With literally everything going right through you ( constant diarrhea) any fluids you could keep down and any solid food you could tolerate would help you. Hope u r doing better now. If your UC is stable you might consider being tested for lactose intolerance and celiac disease.

    • @dreamerjazz352
      @dreamerjazz352 Год назад +1

      @@lindajones4849 Thank you, I'm still doing fine. I'm struggling a bit, but it's been very manageable. As for the lactose, it's ironic you mention intolerance because dairy products are another thing that kept me living happily through the flare. It helped me maintain some weight and I've never had a lactose problem. Milk, cheese, and yogurt all saved my life too. Those were literally the only foods that my body seemed to absorb. Banana, white bread, chicken, and dairy were the only foods that I felt like my body was gaining energy from, and then the sports drink helped maintain my energy. Everything else, my gut would immediately reject. I still can't eat carrots, they go right through me, and broccoli makes me cramp. It's very strange. The only greens I can thoroughly digest are soft green beans, and lettuce. Not iceberg lettuce. Oh and sweet potato is my new favorite veggie, my body can digest it quite well. However, I can still eat very moderate amounts of cooked veggies like broccoli now that I'm doing far better, but I choose to avoid them. It's a very strange condition to be honest, but I've been making it through. I'm surprised myself that I didn't get any IV injections and stuff, I was literally staying strong and holding on to life. I never want to feel that way ever again. Sunshine also keeps me healthy, I don't know what it does, but it rejuvenates me and makes me feel calm and happy. I remember sitting in the sun during my intense flare up, and whenever I was in the sun, my symptoms would quite for longer than usual. The sun has magic powers that scientist aren't talking about!

I have followed low carb / keto diets for a decade - unfortunately I will go through periods (holidays mostly) where I will let it go and will feel horrible come end of December - January. I get back and start loosing the weight after a period of withdrawal from the carbs. However this week, the detox has taken a bit more of a withdrawal - where I feel tired and irritable (ask my wife). I turned 66 last fall, and I now want the benefits of using food as medicine and get off my chol drug and my gout drug... I did make a deal with my cardiologist and GP that I would ask to have the labs drawn to see if the Chol and uric acid is dropping - but how will I know? About how long do you think?
    I have also passed along your website to my Sister-in-law, because they have always had a problem with carb overload - and now my brother is recovering from a triple bypass. . They will need our prayers to get onto this....

    I am a sugar addict
    I was raised on sugar - cakes, biscuits etc. no discipline as a child and had many many stomach issues as a result. Looking back it's a miracle that I did not die young.
    Now at 50 years old, if I try to quit sugar I get very angry
    I consume around 800g of brown sugar in my tea per month + small amounts of biscuits, cakes, white chocolate or ice cream everyday
    I do not crave or eat many other carbs - bread, potatoes, rice or pasta only the sweet stuff.
    Aged 44 I tried a "healthy" 6 months of vegetable soups alongside my sugar daily intake. Ooops. My appendix got so inflamed I should be dead so they cut it out. I survived and learnt that we are carnivores and that plants have no place in the body. Pretty much everything in our supermarkets is poison
    Luckily I have always naturally found meat to be tasty and made me feel nice, so I have always eaten meat also. This is no doubt what has kept me in good health.
    Although I do not have any health issues and rarely get sick, I do know I need to quit sugar - but I have no idea how to do it.
    The ONLY time I do not crave sweet is if I drink alcohol, which of course is worse and TBH I don't like it so I don't drink anyway
