Youre the reason i was able to ride a STEEL framed bike to work and back 16 miles a day, 5 days a week for almost 2 years in the intense heat of arizona. Youre also the reason i went from vegetarian to vegan in 2013. High carb is it
Love your impressions of under carbed keyboard worriers, while out riding yesterday i told my brother that id put half a cup of sugar in my water bottle and he looked at me like id fell out of a dogs arse, then pulled out an energy gel and knocked it back, people don't like to think that they have been mislead for there entire life, keep up the great videos and stay safe 💪👍😉
I find it crazy that refined white sugar has a GI of 65 which is in the same ballpark as a lot of whole grains, fruits and potato. How is that possible without any fibre etc?! Sugar has been demonised so heavily but if it has a similar GI as all these "healthy carbs" then what exactly makes it bad? Like I know it's devoid of other nutrients so obviously you wouldn't replace wholefoods with sugar but if you just added it in as extra, why is it bad? You've definitely got me thinking DR, my mind is a little blown.
Dr Kempners Rice Diet cured thousands of people of diabetes, Kidney disease, Hypertensions, ect ect ect for decades, and he would add pure sugar to their diet to keep the calories up and their protein down.
Watching this and seeing your logic is so refreshing after a weekend with the in-laws who are so sugar phobic they had MULTIPLE passionate discussions on the same day about how bad sugar is for you... i felt like my brain was falling out the longer i listened! Thanks for being rational and giving this life saving advice away for free.. upping my sugar has made life so sweet, thanks
Bro I was so sick of the bullshit mind control carb fear warriors and so was my body. It was shutting down and dying. No joke......feed me truth! Thats all I care about. Man, your videos are like a breath of fresh air. Keep em up and thanks✊🏼. CARB UP👆🏼🍇🍌🍉

Been vegan for 8 yrs now; 59 yrs old. what's interesting to me though is Durianriders method surprisingly smashes my caffeine cravings. I thought cutting back and then eliminating coffee would be hell, but actually, it's not that rough. His hydration protocol is working for me as well

Sugar cane and rice are pretty much all the same family. They grow tall and are both starches / sugars. People out there are trained to categorize them differently, without even knowing it that they’ve been trained to think that way. Geez, how did all the Asian countries survive ? Well, they eat some very lean seafood too, but rice 🌾 is the dominant food on the plate. Another great one Harley !
It's really weird. I'm only cycling, no other workout. I'm rocking sugar water while on the bike and post workout. I am surprised to build muscle in my upper body, hence the absence of even one single pushup. Sugar reduces the amount of cortisol in the blood. It's just awesome. Thank you.
Glycemic load is probably a more important indicator than index. You'll find that the glycemic load of watermelon would be much lower than that of sugar because of watermelon's high water content. The fiber would have something to do with that as well, but mostly because of the water content.
I've only just found this channel but I'm definitely one of the people who think putting sugar on anything is bad .. then I take SIS gels cycling with me! I also drink coffee everyday and up to 6 cups! 😬 I'm gonna try it your way and buy a 2kg bag of sugar tomorrow! No more coffee for me either!
@@andrewmartin1119 i couldn't keep the sugar diet i ended up feeling sick of sweet stuff after around 3 months. So I cut it back a bit and I eat a lot of fruit now instead of just pure sugar. I haven't touched coffee since though! I felt much better and much more energised since giving up coffee and the sugar is a great way to gain energy and keep you feeling good when needed. I just can't intake as much as durianrider recommended. I think its different for everyone but the information is definitely correct. Your adrenals don't work well with coffee and energy drinks interfering.

Living in the USA they push no sugar. I cut all sugar out of my diet 30 years ago. Now when I try to eat anything with extra sugar I hate it. We also eat a look of beef. I have a freezer full of beef. I am ramping up my sugar. I do have a very bad case of Osteoporosis and hate to cut milk out of my diet. We also drink a lot of coffee. I have pounds of it in the house. I am changing everything.
Thankfully, because that's a total trainwreck. Beef, coffee, milk and no sugar, jesus, just awful. Hope you got your shit togheter and started smashing the carbs and sugar, throwing away the dead flesh and animal secretions.
Your advice helped me to get my thyroid levels and iron levels back in the normal range and also helped me to lose 20 pounds. Who knew sugar was good and too much fat in the diet was bad lol. Crazy how the health industry demonizes sugar when it’s vital for health.
100% my guy, I went through my vegan burger, sausages, ice cream, ect phase and at that point I'd have rather just eaten meat because it made my diet worse. Now it's just sugar, cereal, fruits/berries, juice, rice and lentils with mushrooms and the other (mostly starchy veg), I feel so much better now.
I still prefer getting as much sugar from fruit as possible. I agree that most are terrible (and I live in Norway to boot...), but some are quite consistently good, particularly dates for high sugar and mineral content, and oranges for hydration (and generally quite sweet as well). In certain hippie books, like Man's Higher Consciousness, several Roman historians are quoted as saying the Pelasgians, i.e. the people who originated the Greeks, lived to 200 on mainly dates and oranges, so...let's see where we're at in 100 years.
I e been vegan for 14 years. But recently I have decided to just eat carbs. I definitely have tons more energy. I am excited to see what other changes come with it.
You are the only vegan youtuber I still subscribe to. About 4 years ago I weighed 110kg. Went vegan and started cycling. Over a period of about 2 years I got down to 70kg, eating loads of carbs and SUGAR. Even ate fat from olive oil, coconut milk, chips. Then I got hit by a car during a ride. Had to get surgery twice, then depression and anxiety f'ed me. Stopped cycling. Stopped eating vegan. I'm back at 100kg atm. But I keep watching your videos to get the motivation back. Thank you Harley.

Here in the US. charities are required to list their accomplishments on their taxes and they literally just have "maintain the nutrionfacts website". That's it!

Have you looked at their tax forms Harley?
Hey DR. I never jumped into your content until recently despite so many people asking me if I knew your stuff. I knew OF you, but not the extent of your knowledge and info. Just want you to know there are some doctors/nutritionists (me) who understand and are aligned. But there are just a couple of nuances that I think are worth expounding upon. If you ever want to have a *debate* I'd be happy to - and by *debate* I really just mean a more nuanced conversation, because I said, you are spitting about 99.9% truth as I see it with some opportunity for more precision. ;-)
Gregor legit hypnotises his people like a space muppet and he works that shit hard. He knows what he's doing to. Look how evil his beady eyes are. Watch him do it he goofs around with that hypnotic speech pattern. 100% on purpose. He figured that shit out.
I've watched you for years, im keen to do the sugar challenge. Just one question if your having a relaxing day on the couch would you still go hard on sugar? Or is it only for the active days you smash out decent bike rides
Dude it’s so true. I joined slimming world to support my mom, and in the booklet, if you have a smoothie or make a fresh fruit juice it’s classed as 14 syns etc. But if you have a biscuit it’s 3 syns makes no sense needless to say I havent followed it I do my own thing and carb up
Of all your videos over the years, this is one of the best ones because you actually debunk the truth about Sugar, something so many people are terrified of. Of course they can’t consume the sugar and eat cheeseburgers at the same time.
Damn dude after 10 years I still agree you to be the absolute truth when it comes to veganism. I tip my hat to you DurianRider. Thanks for your dedication to the truth
I agree with you on the apple juice thing obviously, but I remember seeing a video of Father Esselstyn saying he didn't like people doing smoothies. So I'm not shocked Rip thinks juice is bad.
I am giving his advice a go. Only been a week. I am 56 and have been engaged in various fitness activitie for decades, mostly weighttraining. I am a natty. I think his perspective is so against the norm that it is pretty scary to give it a fair trial. Plus getting the fat down so low means food choices are very limited and for most, any sort of vegan is already restrictive. But I hear what he is saying and after going down the gym/ high protein/restricted calories approach this is a huge change. I do weights and cardio at the weekend and cardio only through the week. A good hour a day. I am still not fully on board. I used to be on preworkot caffeine and cups of coffee a day but now Ia m down to one cup a day. This is the next challenge. Fear of sugar...wow, yes. I am biting the bullet, but I need to up the amount to conform with what he is saying and I am going for it. I really want this to work, it is a great lifestyle and in some ways fat loss is just a cherry on top.
The only problem with having controversial videos for using the algorithm to get more views is you lose your loyal, long term subscribers when they get sick if the bs.
I digg your message brother and I have a sincere question for you. Logically I can't rap my mind around how glucose from sucrose (or any other source) could cause Immune system depression and yet there are many studies and even more pundits that will parot this idea. What would you say to them? And a personal question for you would be, how often do you catch colds? I know this one may be hard to answer as your message is predicated on the assumption of your own personal health. But as you know people can look good, fit, strong and yet be very, very sick people and I'm not suggesting you are but if you could shed some light on your thoughts about the link between sugar and immune depression I'd appreciate it. Thanks for the great content I've found your books and videos to be very informative and entertaining. Cheers.
Got any links? Makes ZERO sense that the EXACT fuel their body thrives on is also what kills it?? 😂😂. I can't remember the last time I missed a days work from illness. Even my HARDCORE cat allergy has almost gone
@@durianriders Right, it does make Zero sense. I've always thought so. It's like you know intuitvely what is true, yet the voices of the masses can be as loud as they are incorrect. How can the nutrient that powers our mitochondia (of all cells including white blood cells) make us sick? The answer has to be....it doesn't. Thanks for the candide response about your health. Best of luck on your journey my friend. -Peace
It’s funny how you beat me in a 5k and I’m 17😂I’m getting there I’m probably 17:20 5k fitness rn, running 85mpw(training for a half) but I wasn’t active as a child so makes sense. It’s crazzzy how you beat most runners and you just cycle
pac0re I run with a garmin. Maybe my efficiency isn’t great, I have what’s called the “marathoner shuffle” and literally no back kick, but I literally had no back when I used to run track and do speed so idk, maybe I need to raise my lactate threshold
Is it normal to feel warmer and sweat more on a high sugar low fat diet? Just started today and I keep going back and forth between feeling good and feeling out of wack. Maybe I ate too much. I didnt really listen to my taste buds.
@@durianriders I am personally not vegan. Do you think using fat free milk as a protein source would work fine or could it interfere with insulin sensitivity?
@@therefinedcaninethe only thing he promotes is a high carb low fat diet, evidence says theres no difference between high carb low fat or a low carb high fat diet for weightloss. All this research are already published, but how do you even come up with fat free milk as a protein source? If you are diabetic you know you cant eat white rice, sugar etc because all this spikes insulin. You eat whole food that contains protein, rice, beans etc etc. Whole purpouse here is to not focus on protein
@Durianrider I'm definitely skeptical of this diet of extremely low fat and insane amounts of added sugar. Seems pretty crazy, but I might actually try it for a week. Instead of adding berries and seeds to my oatmeal I could pour a half cup of sugar on top. Instead of whole foods only with seeds in my smoothie, I could add bananas and a half cup of sugar, for dinner I can eat a whole bunch of rice, corn, potatoes, and pasta. How does that sound? I'm about 120lbs 5' 6" male.
I would not substitute whole foods for sugar, like berries, seeds, and other whole foods are definitely superior to just sugar alone, but you can add additional sugars if you want. You're already lean, whatever you're doing is working for you.
Im not hating on the Fear Factor guy. But if he is dying & needs test to survive, he would not be as muscular & vascular as he is, especially at 50+. Most guys on "TRT", are doing it for vanity reasons. Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder. Thats the bottom bar. Set your sights higher than that.
DURIANRIDER….How much fat does your Soy Milk have ? The one I buy from Costco which is a L4N Organic Canadian Soy Milk has 4g per cup. Is this acceptable or should I look for a totally fat free one ? Does soy have usually naturally occurring veggie fats ? Thx
What's with the recent Brian Turner steroid opinions? So all Vivo life guys are on gear? I don't trust Jon Venus but Turner, Simnett? What's your opinion on Lou Corona, Markus Rothkranz?
Hagar TheViking been following all these guys for many years but sticked to durianrider. At the end of the day they all just seemed to sell or promote products. Record a video, tell non science based stuff, then link people to their healthfoodonlinestore where you ll pay a fortune for shit. Durianrider is different - one philosophy and sticks to it. his advice works amazingly for me lately. 250 gramm of sugar during long bikerides, i feel like a rocket. Dude is only promoting vitb12 shots, doesn t even mention a brand. fuck all those idiots that sell their overpriced shitty supplements.
What i ve learned the past 10 years. Keep your diet simple, don t starve yourself unless you want to screw your thyroid and liver, start getting fit, high intensity workout once in a while but it s more important to be consistent. Don t overexercice, you ll increase cortisol and stress hormones. Be patient. Regarding supplements, i testet a LOT haha. the only things that made a difference: magnesium glycinate/taurinate/malate/glycerophpohate, vitb12, high dosage vitd and sometimes a bit of vitc. Again i m monitored by a doctor and doing bloodtests as i was lacking these serverly. Made a huge difference in fitness and mental health
@@baberainbow0025 Yes I've been following DR since inturned vegan in 2015 and I feel he's the only vegan out there who's been really consistent with his advice. I wanted his opinion on the sudden Brian Turner steroids accusation. What ticked that off
Okay stop trolling Harley because this misinformation can harm people. Refined food is very calorie dense and lacking in micronutrients and is best in moderation. Kenpner and McDougall do not say to consume sugar in the quantities you show here, they say to add it in moderation as a sweetener. You have never had to lose weight so you do not understand calorie density and satiation. There is a reason athletes use sugary sports gels for endurance sports, it is not meant for daily consumption in large quantities. It is sad because you have a great message and platform for doing good but you dilute your message with this kind of trolling.
mike can run fast and long but he aint raw. doug is raw and runs slow as an injured slug pulling a pumpkin. grant is raw and the exception but not fast but he can go long. mark isnt raw but can ride ok.
I always learn something valuable from your videos. Hands down, Durianrider, you are THE WORLD's BEST Health Coash as well as life coach. Forever a fan. Forever grateful for your service to mankind.
You are wrong. But you are also right. NOTHING is grown today without blood and bone etc. So the carbon atoms in your fruit and rice and water are recycled from animals so technically not vegan.
Lol, I get it. But the bone derivatives are added on purpose to process the sugar more white in colour, if I remember correctly? Why not use brown sugar or something like maple syrup?
Low energy vegan here :( Buying 2 kg of sugar tomorrow! Is it possible not to gain weight if I eat mostly starch? Fruit is bad right now, wating for summer to eat mangos
Nice job on the video, putting out some good messages there. Just thought I'd let you know the last few minutes the audio is out of sync and I noticed the same with your unnatural vegan video. Cheers.
love your vids dude. Do you think it would be better to just eat more nutrigrain instead of coating it with sugar? Eg 2 serves instead of 1 with the extra sugar?
Why eat more volume when your can eat less and have less digestion time? Human stomach can stretch but I prefer smaller cal sufficient meals than larger ones of same cals.
The older I get the more I realise DR is on the money. I now smash the bread, pasta, oats, rice, bulgar wheat, corn, barley, potatoes, sugar, jam, fresh/dried fruit and fruit juices. And keep non-starchy veg, beans, nuts/seeds/avocados as secondary food stuffs.
Body is reacting great. Don’t really do raw till 4; because I often have starches for breakfast and lunch (e.g. porridge/toast & pasta). If I wanna gain more weight I just throw in a higher amount amount of fat (e.g. from avocado, nuts, seeds, tahini, olive oil, coconut cream etc.). If I wanna lean out - I just cut these down. SIMPLE. Less beans = less farts (always a bonus too).
People are so completely and utterly convinced that sugar is the worst thing you can consume, it is processed and makes you fat. When you tell them it has low calorie density than most foods so how does it make you fat, they just look at you as you are an idiot and talking rubbish! You can say Pizza, hot chips, gels, pasta, beer, wine, all processed and high sugar content, that is okay, but say white table sugar, and oh that is bad!

If you ever want to have a *debate* I'd be happy to - and by *debate* I really just mean a more nuanced conversation, because I said, you are spitting about 99.9% truth as I see it with some opportunity for more precision. ;-)
Gregor legit hypnotises his people like a space muppet and he works that shit hard. He knows what he's doing to. Look how evil his beady eyes are. Watch him do it he goofs around with that hypnotic speech pattern. 100% on purpose. He figured that shit out.
Sugar has nothing to do with diabetes. Try to explain that to my aunt. She ain't having it.
I've watched you for years, im keen to do the sugar challenge. Just one question if your having a relaxing day on the couch would you still go hard on sugar? Or is it only for the active days you smash out decent bike rides
Update?
Dude it’s so true. I joined slimming world to support my mom, and in the booklet, if you have a smoothie or make a fresh fruit juice it’s classed as 14 syns etc. But if you have a biscuit it’s 3 syns makes no sense needless to say I havent followed it I do my own thing and carb up
100% true! 300g sugar a day... welcome to my daily life ;)
Of all your videos over the years, this is one of the best ones because you actually debunk the truth about Sugar, something so many people are terrified of. Of course they can’t consume the sugar and eat cheeseburgers at the same time.
👌💯❤️
PS: Can’t EVER eat fatty food and not gain fat from it.
Damn dude after 10 years I still agree you to be the absolute truth when it comes to veganism. I tip my hat to you DurianRider. Thanks for your dedication to the truth
Peace ✌️ and Love 💕 from Tucson Arizona 🏜️. Right On Brother 😎
I agree with you on the apple juice thing obviously, but I remember seeing a video of Father Esselstyn saying he didn't like people doing smoothies. So I'm not shocked Rip thinks juice is bad.
Hahaha! So many people will be Triggered from this vid! Putting all that devils crystal on your cereal lol
Ran 10k on the treadmill while watching this drinking sugar water.
Bretzky yessir 👍🏾👍🏾. Why don't you go outside and get that sweet sweet vitamin d and fresh air tho? 😎
@@nathanielphillips6792 I run outside almost every day! Today is blowing sideways snow in Toronto, and I can't watch a long DR video outside ;)
You should do an interview/debate with the raw meat eating vegan-bashing dude called "Sv3rige", that would be the show of the decade!
He backed out.
@@durianriders 🤣
great video!
I am giving his advice a go. Only been a week. I am 56 and have been engaged in various fitness activitie for decades, mostly weighttraining. I am a natty. I think his perspective is so against the norm that it is pretty scary to give it a fair trial. Plus getting the fat down so low means food choices are very limited and for most, any sort of vegan is already restrictive. But I hear what he is saying and after going down the gym/ high protein/restricted calories approach this is a huge change. I do weights and cardio at the weekend and cardio only through the week. A good hour a day. I am still not fully on board. I used to be on preworkot caffeine and cups of coffee a day but now Ia m down to one cup a day. This is the next challenge. Fear of sugar...wow, yes. I am biting the bullet, but I need to up the amount to conform with what he is saying and I am going for it. I really want this to work, it is a great lifestyle and in some ways fat loss is just a cherry on top.
How is it going? Are you getting good results?
Im doing the 2 kg sugar 7 day challenge!!
Are you still alive? :)
@@johnkowalsky1988 hahaha
The only problem with having controversial videos for using the algorithm to get more views is you lose your loyal, long term subscribers when they get sick if the bs.
Hi there😀. Can I ask you which kind of cereals do you eat/recommend ?😄thank you for your answer.
What is your opinion of Oatmeal vs fruit, especially now with all the quarantine
both...
THE FRUIT ON LONG ISLAND IS HIDEOUS IN THE 60S AND 70S IT WAS DELICIOUS. I LIKE YOUR PHILOSOPHY
I’ve never laughed so much at a video in my life(in a good way)😂these impressions are quality 😂😂
amazing stuff. oats with water and sugar okay or too much fat in oats ? thanks
If oats give you the power to work hard then go for it. I prefer white rice for dinner.
I digg your message brother and I have a sincere question for you. Logically I can't rap my mind around how glucose from sucrose (or any other source) could cause Immune system depression and yet there are many studies and even more pundits that will parot this idea. What would you say to them? And a personal question for you would be, how often do you catch colds? I know this one may be hard to answer as your message is predicated on the assumption of your own personal health. But as you know people can look good, fit, strong and yet be very, very sick people and I'm not suggesting you are but if you could shed some light on your thoughts about the link between sugar and immune depression I'd appreciate it. Thanks for the great content I've found your books and videos to be very informative and entertaining.
Cheers.
Got any links?
Makes ZERO sense that the EXACT fuel their body thrives on is also what kills it?? 😂😂.
I can't remember the last time I missed a days work from illness. Even my HARDCORE cat allergy has almost gone
@@durianriders Right, it does make Zero sense. I've always thought so. It's like you know intuitvely what is true, yet the voices of the masses can be as loud as they are incorrect. How can the nutrient that powers our mitochondia (of all cells including white blood cells) make us sick? The answer has to be....it doesn't. Thanks for the candide response about your health. Best of luck on your journey my friend.
-Peace
@durianrider amazing content mate! always appreciate how realistic u are. Keep up the great work
THANKS!
REALISTICALLY DESIGNED ADVICE FTW!
It’s funny how you beat me in a 5k and I’m 17😂I’m getting there I’m probably 17:20 5k fitness rn, running 85mpw(training for a half) but I wasn’t active as a child so makes sense. It’s crazzzy how you beat most runners and you just cycle
cardio fitness is transferable across ALL sports
pac0re I run with a garmin. Maybe my efficiency isn’t great, I have what’s called the “marathoner shuffle” and literally no back kick, but I literally had no back when I used to run track and do speed so idk, maybe I need to raise my lactate threshold
pac0re 🙏😉
I wouldn't trust the New York Times to tell me today's date!
Wow you named so many things I’ve been going through on a vegan diet. Nice to know I’m not the only one.
I wanna prove you wrong DR! I’m gonna take your 7 day challenge!
Update?
Update?
Yea People want an update on that.
good one, i'll add sugar to my smoothies and will follow up on the results
thanks Harley, make more videos :)
I ate just fruit and salad for 2 months and I lost all the colour in my face and half my hair fell out. I just landed on your channel.
Raw vegan is orthorexia
Is it normal to feel warmer and sweat more on a high sugar low fat diet? Just started today and I keep going back and forth between feeling good and feeling out of wack. Maybe I ate too much. I didnt really listen to my taste buds.
Sugar raises metabolism and fitness. That means sweat rate goes up.
@@durianriders I am personally not vegan. Do you think using fat free milk as a protein source would work fine or could it interfere with insulin sensitivity?
@@therefinedcaninethe only thing he promotes is a high carb low fat diet, evidence says theres no difference between high carb low fat or a low carb high fat diet for weightloss. All this research are already published, but how do you even come up with fat free milk as a protein source? If you are diabetic you know you cant eat white rice, sugar etc because all this spikes insulin. You eat whole food that contains protein, rice, beans etc etc. Whole purpouse here is to not focus on protein
@Durianrider I'm definitely skeptical of this diet of extremely low fat and insane amounts of added sugar. Seems pretty crazy, but I might actually try it for a week. Instead of adding berries and seeds to my oatmeal I could pour a half cup of sugar on top. Instead of whole foods only with seeds in my smoothie, I could add bananas and a half cup of sugar, for dinner I can eat a whole bunch of rice, corn, potatoes, and pasta. How does that sound? I'm about 120lbs 5' 6" male.
Are you joking? 120lbs? Are you Christian bale in the machinist?
I would not substitute whole foods for sugar, like berries, seeds, and other whole foods are definitely superior to just sugar alone, but you can add additional sugars if you want. You're already lean, whatever you're doing is working for you.
Why would you skip the fruit? 😂. ADD the sugar to the lot.
@@durianriders Word up will do bAoSS
@@durianriders Ill add extra bananas and sugar to my oats and skip the nuts/seeds how does that sound baoss?
Im not hating on the Fear Factor guy. But if he is dying & needs test to survive, he would not be as muscular & vascular as he is, especially at 50+. Most guys on "TRT", are doing it for vanity reasons. Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder. Thats the bottom bar. Set your sights higher than that.
DURIANRIDER….How much fat does your Soy Milk have ? The one I buy from Costco which is a L4N Organic Canadian Soy Milk has 4g per cup. Is this acceptable or should I look for a totally fat free one ? Does soy have usually naturally occurring veggie fats ? Thx
Just use water if you want to get and maintain race weight year round.
That cereal bowl needs more sugar!!
one of your better vids! thumbs up
What's with the recent Brian Turner steroid opinions? So all Vivo life guys are on gear? I don't trust Jon Venus but Turner, Simnett?
What's your opinion on Lou Corona, Markus Rothkranz?
Hagar TheViking been following all these guys for many years but sticked to durianrider. At the end of the day they all just seemed to sell or promote products. Record a video, tell non science based stuff, then link people to their healthfoodonlinestore where you ll pay a fortune for shit. Durianrider is different - one philosophy and sticks to it. his advice works amazingly for me lately. 250 gramm of sugar during long bikerides, i feel like a rocket. Dude is only promoting vitb12 shots, doesn t even mention a brand. fuck all those idiots that sell their overpriced shitty supplements.
What i ve learned the past 10 years. Keep your diet simple, don t starve yourself unless you want to screw your thyroid and liver, start getting fit, high intensity workout once in a while but it s more important to be consistent. Don t overexercice, you ll increase cortisol and stress hormones. Be patient. Regarding supplements, i testet a LOT haha. the only things that made a difference: magnesium glycinate/taurinate/malate/glycerophpohate, vitb12, high dosage vitd and sometimes a bit of vitc. Again i m monitored by a doctor and doing bloodtests as i was lacking these serverly. Made a huge difference in fitness and mental health
@@baberainbow0025 Yes I've been following DR since inturned vegan in 2015 and I feel he's the only vegan out there who's been really consistent with his advice.
I wanted his opinion on the sudden Brian Turner steroids accusation. What ticked that off
Simnett isnt really the same though right? yeah hes on the vivolife train, but he isnt a bodybuilder, he does way more bodyweight/calisthenics stuff
Okay stop trolling Harley because this misinformation can harm people. Refined food is very calorie dense and lacking in micronutrients and is best in moderation. Kenpner and McDougall do not say to consume sugar in the quantities you show here, they say to add it in moderation as a sweetener. You have never had to lose weight so you do not understand calorie density and satiation. There is a reason athletes use sugary sports gels for endurance sports, it is not meant for daily consumption in large quantities. It is sad because you have a great message and platform for doing good but you dilute your message with this kind of trolling.
*Kempner
Having huge bowl of krave this morning with tons of sugar
Come on, you know there are some raw fooders you would pick, like Michael arnstein, doug graham, grant campbell, mark tassi.
mike can run fast and long but he aint raw.
doug is raw and runs slow as an injured slug pulling a pumpkin.
grant is raw and the exception but not fast but he can go long.
mark isnt raw but can ride ok.
@@durianriders explain how mike and mark are not raw?

Thanks CZ!! ❤️💯💯💯💯
Ive worked labouring in a hot environment and if I dont take salt I get cramps,taking alot of sugar does that mean I wont need as much salt
I was under the impression white sugar was not vegan? I hope I’m wrong.
You are wrong.
But you are also right.
NOTHING is grown today without blood and bone etc. So the carbon atoms in your fruit and rice and water are recycled from animals so technically not vegan.
Lol, I get it. But the bone derivatives are added on purpose to process the sugar more white in colour, if I remember correctly? Why not use brown sugar or something like maple syrup?
Would love to hear your thoughts on ‘That Sugar Film’ that came out a few years ago.
ruclips.net/video/m2RBWsPA_E4/видео.html
Coles Australian White Sugar. Need me some of dat drug. U should fill your suitcase full of it next time u go somewhere but put it in ziplocs.
I’ll take on the 7 day challenge (24/4) 300 gms per day, right
Update?
9:00 - 7 days? I'll have it done in 3
Low energy vegan here :(
Buying 2 kg of sugar tomorrow! Is it possible not to gain weight if I eat mostly starch? Fruit is bad right now, wating for summer to eat mangos
yes eat some cooked vegan foods; rice, beans, oatmeal, vegan pizza, etc. even vegan meats if you want
NEVER EAT OR DRINK ANYTHING if you don't want to gain weight. 😆.
Hahaha 😅
But the recommendation for starch is still min of 2500 for females?
Update on the challenge?
Nice job on the video, putting out some good messages there. Just thought I'd let you know the last few minutes the audio is out of sync and I noticed the same with your unnatural vegan video. Cheers.
Big hands, big ...... heart
Wow. You say that people who are vegan, taking steroids, and lying about it are serving a purpose. That's some scary zealotry.
How much refined sugar do you usually add to your food in a week?
Up to 7kg
a week.
love your vids dude. Do you think it would be better to just eat more nutrigrain instead of coating it with sugar? Eg 2 serves instead of 1 with the extra sugar?
Why eat more volume when your can eat less and have less digestion time? Human stomach can stretch but I prefer smaller cal sufficient meals than larger ones of same cals.
@@durianriders 👍 thanks
The older I get the more I realise DR is on the money. I now smash the bread, pasta, oats, rice, bulgar wheat, corn, barley, potatoes, sugar, jam, fresh/dried fruit and fruit juices. And keep non-starchy veg, beans, nuts/seeds/avocados as secondary food stuffs.
How is your body reacting?
Body is reacting great. Don’t really do raw till 4; because I often have starches for breakfast and lunch (e.g. porridge/toast & pasta). If I wanna gain more weight I just throw in a higher amount amount of fat (e.g. from avocado, nuts, seeds, tahini, olive oil, coconut cream etc.). If I wanna lean out - I just cut these down. SIMPLE. Less beans = less farts (always a bonus too).
@@workingclassveganrants440 how u doing now after 2 years ?
Update ?
tough stuff
100 grams of Sugar 3 times a day to my normal eating ( I am not a vegan ) ? Can I eat the sugar on a emty stommach , I don´t eat breakfast.
Why not?
People are so completely and utterly convinced that sugar is the worst thing you can consume, it is processed and makes you fat. When you tell them it has low calorie density than most foods so how does it make you fat, they just look at you as you are an idiot and talking rubbish!
You can say Pizza, hot chips, gels, pasta, beer, wine, all processed and high sugar content, that is okay, but say white table sugar, and oh that is bad!
you get fat from excess calorie intake
