Hi Doctor, you will probably not see this message but I sincerely thank you. I’m 57 and have not known a life without sugar and chocolate cravings…resulting in weight gain, feeling crap and migraines. It’s only been a week since purchasing your book and following your methods and already an improvement. The last straw for me was when I ate HALF a baked cheesecake after eating a meal of high carbs. I have always criticised myself for not having the will power and could never understand or explain it to others that it feels totally beyond my control pretty much …like an addict. Immensely grateful from Australia. 🇦🇺
You have a nice way of wording it. I had a more negative thought of the style of the presentation, but you your comment was clever and made the point 😊
As someone with ADHD, I'm glad we touch on the dopamine topic. I find that a lot of the times I am not craving as much as sugar or so but a texture or a feeling. I find that a healthier compromise is eating foods that are complex in flavors and textures (many Asian countries foods hit that spot for me). If you are sensorial seeking through food, eating more sensorially satistfying meals helps a lot. Just had some korean bibimbap with spicy sauce, and some bachang and they left my mouth singing and it leaves me so pleased and mentally satisfied. And if not there are different kinds of curries from many countries, different thai dishes. If those are not options for you try to cook your meals that balance sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, salty and that have variety of textures that go with another. Try spices, try adding crushed nuts on things for texture, try things until you figure out what makes your mouth happy without having to be putting in a pound of sugar or chips in your mouth.
I'm intolerant now to a million things now so i can't eat them anymore, butfor me Snickers are crack, you have salty, sweet, chewy, crunchy @@rayoflightcanada
@@polyglotfrog and it’s not just the recipes themselves but they eat a variety of dishes each meal. I can’t find the video now but I remember watching this Thai food channel and the hostess explaining the meals have to have (I don’t remember exactly) something fresh, something spicy, something wet, something dry and so, so they consider it a proper meal which I found fascinating
Ive only been doing a savory breakfast for a couple of days now because of this channel, and I have already seen a drastic shift in my sugar cravings!! Ive been addicted to sugar for as long as I can remember and doing savory breakfasts and eating more protein has changed the game for me!! Thank you so much doctor!!
I've read that there's a HUGE link between ADHD/autism and sugar/food addiction. This doesn't mean that every person who has a sugar addiction is ND. Nor does it mean every ND person has a sugar addiction. But it is very common for people who are ND, and especially people with ADHD and/or autism to have sugar addictions (or addictions in general). This is because one of the main symptoms of ADHD/ASD is irregular dopamine levels in the brain. Glucose gives us a dopamine boost, so it's very easy for us to become addicted to things like sugar or caffeine or other sources of dopamine. It's also more difficult for us to break these addictions because we are quite literally self-medicating. When engaged in our addictions, the "high" we get might actually feel very calming in addition to giving us energy. As if we have temporarily made out brains "normal". But the issue with sugar is that it does not sustain us for very long, and we crave more and more of it. Furthermore, we reap all of the negative side effects of sugar too. Sugar crashes, weight gain, high blood sugar, and worsened mental symptoms. There's a misconception that cutting sugar will "cure" ADHD or autism. It won't. There is no cure. But, it can definitely help. Replacing sugar with something healthier that provides a similar dopamine boost is a good way to insure you are still able to manage symptoms and get through your day, without all the negative side effects of too much sugar. This can mean asking your doctor about certain medications made specifically for ADHD/ASD. Or, if you don't want to take medicine, there are also some natural remedies. Drinking green tea with a little bit of honey, eating fruit instead of candy, exercising regularly, and trying your best to maintain a good sleep schedule can help. Furthermore, engaging in activities that provide you with dopamine helps. Listen to music you enjoy. Make art. Talk with friends. Spend time in nature. Essentially, do whatever it is that makes you happy. The happier you are, the less you will crave dopamine from unhealthy sources. And trust me, I know that this is not easy. I am writing this as a woman who is 5'2" and 180lbs who has AuDHD and has been struggling for 6 years. I am watching this video because, after getting rejected from a job I really wanted, I've been feeling depressed and have fallen back into a lot of my bad habits, like eating a lot of sugar, sleeping all day, and not exercising. I need to remind myself to stop and get back on a healthy track. And for those who are struggling like this too, I want to try to provide some tips and help you out too if I can. We can get through this together. Remember, it's not your fault that your brain is the way that it is. You were just born like that, and feeling all sad and guilty only makes things worse. Your only job is to learn how to accept it, and work with it. Not fight it. Something that's really been helping me in terms of motivating myself to work out has been learning how to work out in a way that is actually comfortable for me. I'm sure there are people who are talking about it, but personally I don't feel like I've seen nearly enough people speaking out about how insanely overstimulating exercise can actually be for even "high masking" autistics. Being hot, and sweaty, and sore, and cramping, and short of breath, and smelly, and surrounded by other people, and wearing clothes that role up or bunch up or don't support all your bouncy bits when you're running or jumping, and being yelled at by a coach, and being in a room with loud music or bright lights...It's actual sensory hell. For me working out has always been something I absolutely HATED unless it was done under very specific circumstances that ensured I was comfortable. I've found taking long walks in quiet/heavily shaded places (like hiking trails with lots of trees), swimming (because it keeps me from being sweaty and gross), or going to a gym when it is not very busy and has good air conditioning, are all things I genuinely enjoy doing. I've also found I enjoy working out by myself more than I do with other people, because I feel no pressure to push myself beyond my limits or compare myself to anyone else around me. But I also wear a Fitbit to track how many calories I am burning, which motivates me to stick to certain goals and ensure I'm also not going too easy on myself. I'm going to go work out after I finish writing this post. And I wish all of my fellow struggling NDs strength to achieve their goals as well. You can do this. < 3
i got a job where I work in a dairy warehouse. It's great, with the temperature slightly above freezing I can work to my hearts content without getting hot and sweaty. I started taking whey protein isolate for breakfast and it was a game changer. Another thing that really helped me was using compression clothing. My skin being hyper-elastic and stretchy makes bouncing movements very uncomfortable. I probably have a type of EDS. The compression clothes keep everything aligned and feeling right. I have been obese my entire life since being a pre-teen, but at age 50 I have finally entered a healthy weight range, and I feel in the best shape of my life! Sensory overload is important to monitor. I had no idea until my capacity was reduced and I got overloaded much easier. I highly recommend looking into Attentional Restoration Therapy, ART for short. Giving our brains some time to recharge our focus energy often cures what seems like physical tiredness. It makes it easier to make good decisions and provides the mental energy to accomplish the focused tasks we need to do.
You are so spot on!!! I've been eating "dinner for breakfast" for a few years. That said, I have been and still am a selective sugar junkie. I'm fit and not overweight because I workout five days a week (mostly hiking mountains, doing some pushups, dips, some ab work, and I'm 76 year young). I drink ACV every day throughout the day. It's diluted and, granted, it's an acquired taste, but one you can acquire because the outcome is so beneficial. All that you have just shared here will be strong aides for seriously reducing sugar in my life. Thank you. I've subscribed and look forward to more of your brain power.
Jessie - since watching you on Diary of a CEO, I flipped my day around and no longer start my day with anything sweet. It's been one of the best changes I've ever made in my life. I no longer get "hangry" and it lends itself so nicely to intermittent fasting which is also helping with some lifelong health issues. I can't thank you enough! :) PS - I would love to see you and Dr. Mindy Pelz on the same stage someday :)
@sitcomchristian6886 I don't think that matters much if she's done the research and knows how to learn. People can be many things. I know a carpenter who is also an amazing potter; would I warn people that he's a carpenter when they look at his pottery? Of course not. People have many passions. I also know too many specialists with their heads in the sand who seemed to have stopped learning many years ago. Bodies should not be treated like the systems don't all interact with each other or that we know everything there is to know about them. It's how we got in this mess in the first place.
You teach biochemistry in the most amazing way. You keep us engaged and empower us with incredible information that gives us the necessary tools to take control of our health. On a side note, please disregard any negative comments, always remember that haters are always going to hate (they’re human beings on the face of the earth walking with a gray cloud over their head and sometimes get struck by lightning and actually get worse….poor things). So getting back to the positive outlook, please know that I’ll be eternally grateful to you. I have been applying your hacks, making your recipes and I watch your videos (while walking on my treadmill). I have nothing but wonderful things to say about your teachings and they work! I no longer crave junk food and I no longer snack as I used to. My mental health and energy levels are outstanding. It’s fascinating reading all the research articles too. Thank you for your passion for the science and for giving us a fighting chance. Your follower for life! ❤
But it's not good to eliminate all carbs. Carbs like veg and fruit provide important fiber. I've never eliminated a food group from the way I eat because I'm always active. A lot of people don't mention exercise but actually it's the key to maintaining a steady weight without obsessing over food.
My cravings come at night. No problem whatsoever during the day but night comes and boy I'm marching in and out of the kitchen like a lunatic. So I decided to tell my brain no food after 9pm. No 'healthy snack', no fruit, no just this time, nothing at all. Weirdly enough it's been real easy when before I was battling with my mind so much. I also agree that exercising regularly helps a lot balancing blood sugar and overall metabolism. Gotta stick with it at first but then it becomes a real pleasure. Ofc we need to find exercises we enjoy. And consistency is definitely key. It doesn't matter if weight loss or whatever we're after is slow when we know we're going to keep this awesome lifestyle we picked for ourselves for ever.
Hi Jessie. I saw a few of your videos recently for the 1st time. As I listened, everything that you said made perfect sense. I immediately ordered 2 of your books & started reading as soon as they were delivered. I was so anxious to try out what I had just read. You see, I am at rock bottom. I feel like I have no hope. UNTIL I SAW YOUR VIDEOS!!! I am a 54 year old female who has ballooned up to 374 lbs. My life is miserable. My entire body hurts & I can't walk more than a couple of feet without sounding like a chainsmoker. Because of my size I have become depressed & never want to leave the house. I am miserable & angry. My marriage is suffering. I feel like a loser because I can't control my food or my cravings. I feel ashamed & embarrassed by the way that I look. But today, my family & I went out to a nice restaurant for Easter dinner. I figured, "Might as well try out my new knowledge". I AM ASTONISHED! I ate a salad 1st, followed by 3 oz of filet mignon, then a scoop of mashed potatoes, & last, creme brulee. I ate this at 1:00 & it's all that I've eaten today. I'M NOT HUNGRY!!! 😲💃🤗 No energy slump today! I feel like a new woman. And it's only been 1 day! I will keep you posted after some more time goes by. Jessie, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. You have given me hope again! I think that you may have just given me my life back! 🥰
That is amazing & so encouraging to hear! Well done to you 👏👏👏 I'm hoping it can help me too as what you described pretty much describes my own situation & it's making me so miserable & hopeless 😞
The fact that you're seeking out Jessie's content and applying her hacks goes to show that you are on the way up! Keep going, the journey will be difficult but you are worth the effort and you'll thank yourself down the line. Don't forget to be kind to yourself
As a nutrition coach I must say you are a blessing for my flexible treatments, especially for people that don't want to move from their confort zone. Thanks a lot! I'd love to have an interview with you!
It is fun to see you put your creativity in your stage set up, clothes, & to use your mighty brain to help us all. Thank you. It was fun & educational & I'm giving No Spike a try.
I start day with raw veggies - you are hungry and you can eat lot of veggies and greens with taste. Raw veggies help to clean my digestive system also. Then I can start eat proteins (sea weeds, yoghurts, chicken and others) ... Im climber and mountain runner.
Your books helped me go from pre diabetic to no longer pre diabetic. After holidays and now Mardi Gras season (King Cakes 😵💫), I am getting myself back to all I’ve learned from you! Love seeing the videos. You’ve helped me make major health improvements and I thank you 🙏
I’m surprised I didn’t hear you talk about depleted estrogen. Women over a certain age are craving sugar (including alcohol) due to hormone insufficiency. The body needs fat if estrogen is low. HRT is immediately helpful with this and now widely recommended.
It depends on the individual. In 2022, I had a breast cancer lumpectomy followed by radiation. I am now on hormone blocker medication for 5 years because estrogen and progesterone are like Miracle Grow for cancer cells (in my case.) I am now 69 and HRT is detrimental for me. Thank goodness I never took it.
Savoury breakfasts are a game changer for me. I’m not a diabetic but I’ve had breast cancer twice so keeping my insulin levels steady is imperative. Really impressed by the work you’ve done.
I really enjoyed this information. Especially the first hack you mentioned! I crave sugar the most immediately after having lunch and dinner, and sometimes even breakfast, no matter how full I am or how much protein I eat.
This is amazing! Thank you for your work ❤️ I noticed this yesterday. I had a protein shake for breakfast and felt completely satiated for about 6 hours. Mid-day I had a bowl of grapes on its own and the cravings just spiraled. I found myself going back to the kitchen every couple of hours to get something else, it was crazy! I was looking for an explanation and that is how I found you! I started my day with a protein shake and 2 hard boiled eggs this morning. I’m optimistic about how the rest of my day will go! Thanks doctor!
I put myself on a diet consisting of meats, vegetables and fruits. I also eat Greek yogurt and nuts. I don’t worry about calories. Before I put myself on this diet, I was eating chips, candy, cookies, bread, cake, etc. I had no energy and I was depressed. Since I started my diet, I have more energy. I’m not depressed. I’m not bloated. I’ve started walking more. I’ve decided to stay away from certain foods completely. Foods like bread are very addictive. I know that once I eat just one piece of bread, my brain will crave more. So I just stay away completely. I also stay away from canned foods.
This is a really good video. Thank you. Glad I found you. I actually do that for breakfast after years of drinking orange juice and having low blood sugar like I was going to pass out and constantly eating more sweet and carbohydrate. I now eat nuts, eggs, chicken- sausage, and a low-carb piece of bread, and I can “ not” eat all day long until dinner.
Thank you so much for sharing this very helpful information!! I’m a whole food plant based eater and usually do a 50/50 plate at every meal: 50% nonstarchy veggies and 50% starch and plant-based protein. Definitely love the savory breakfast concept!
For many years I’ve been eating leftovers for breakfast so I started making a big pot of stew with lots of veggies and some chicken and turmeric and other good things each week and have a bowl of that each morning. That gets me out of that craving loop. If I can’t have that (if I’m traveling or such) I always notice the difference.
Me too- I made a soup this week with carrots, onions, zucchini and cabbage plus pork and a few lentils. It was a perfect breakfast all week and I didn’t have to think about it.
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom. It's been such a big help to me because i suffer with severe migraine attacks, fatigue, depression and anxiety, and changing the way i eat has really helped in many ways. God bless you
OMG, Your hacks are priceless,,, I just started doing it and my energy level over the day has shifted big time. I don't feel that energy crash as I used to,,, Honestly the change is so radical am still in sock. Thank you so much
You blew my mind with this info. I started to eat more protein especially for breakfast and if I wanted anything sweet, I’d save it for last. It absolutely works. I have less cravings now. THANK YOU!!!!
Thank you, for this information! I'm 57 and since menopause at 47 I have gained so much weight even though I work out 5 times a week, am a vegetarian and get over 10,000 steps a day. I crave chocolate all the time but I do notice eating eggs for breakfast does seem to help. Now I know why.
12:50. This appears to be somewhat faulty or misleading information. I know what you meant to say but this is simply wrong Sorry. 1. Through immune system activities, we take apart foreign bacteria leading to a protein source. 2. Through intentional cell depth , apoptosis, followed by cleanup and , if possible ( assisted by fasting) autophagy, we have another protein source. We cover 80-90% of our protein needs by this. And, yes, the rest we get through food sources mentioned in this video. But the actual demand for fresh, external protein that our bodies need is not actually so great as we always belive or get told. Thank you. Excellent episode and good hacks.
As I began eating fiber 1st , and protein/fats next, and low carb carbs, i I stopped eating sooner, my cravings stopped, and I went longer and longer between meals. And fasting began to happen naturally. My energy level is improving which was very bad. Thank u so much for your help. ❤
As an undergraduate student studying Nutrition, I really admired your video! Living in a world that deals with an infodemic, I loved how everything you mentioned was based on scientific evidence and research, and it really motivates me to keep studying what I’m studying in hopes to solve a lot of nutritional problems in the future. On top of that, you give very clear explanations of things, very easy to understand which is also super important when it comes to sharing information. This was overall informative and entertaining, thank you! Looking forward to watching more videos like this ☺️
im so impressed with your work. from the production of this video to the execution of the science to your unique style! i’m so glad i found you, i feel so educated
What a blessing that I stumbled upon your absolute straight-up, no-fuss, to-the-point channel. Wow - Double WOW. For the first time in my 60 years someone speaks in my language and I understand. I hang to your lips, girl. Bravo. I am forever your fan. Warmest greetings from Cape Town, South Africa. Jacques PS Your books are available in South Africa!!!! YEAH!!! I just ordered both!!!
I am so excited that I found you! After my kidney transplant I have developed New-Onset Diabetes. So looking forward to watching each and every episode! Thank you so much!
1- glucose crashes after a spike and it makes you crave more (addiction rollercoaster) 2- sugar produces dopamine which makes us feel better 3- body doesn’t receive enough protein and sends signals to eat but doesn’t specify to eat protein so we feel hungry and eat carbs
Speaking of vinegar, I marinate mini cucumbers using white 30% vinegar, blackcurrant leaves, dill, salt and very little sugar. I also marinate herring in vinegar and white onions.
You're a marketing genius Jessie! And thanks so much for the fantastic info. Its helped me with symptoms and Im now able to change my whole diet to stop glucose spikes. I think it will change my life and many years unwell. You Go Girl! ( I predict a load of copy cats coming soon, you turned good info in to easy hacks and followable hacks...GOLD!). Keep it up.
I loved her talking about her research and outcomes; this is how I think one should talk about their research. I know this is going to sound insane but being a research student myself I was hoping how fun and informative it would be if someone with enough knowledge on the topic counter-questioned her cause I have not heard anyone else talk about this stuff with this kind of glucose information. Many people talk about how to plan diets, fasting, and exercise and all but this is new and amazing I must say, No doubt she is a Glucose goddess. P.S. I love all of her talks on every podcast and RUclips channel that I possibly came across.
Great episode!! If eating sugar gives us a wave of dopamine what about craving salt like in chips what happens in our biochemistry when we crave and eat salty stuff?
I have been following glucose goddess method for more than a year now and its absolutely life changing My cravings are at peace now Hunger is satisfied for longer periods Periods are regulated and i have lost weight too And i am more happy now 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Thank you jessie❤❤❤❤
Lemon and lime does the same as vinegar and eating grapefruit- personal experience. If lemon peel extract is so good, then we can just juice a whole lemon with skin.
Hâte de voir la suite ! Merci beaucoup pour tous vos conseils, nous les suivons en famille, je suis contente que mes enfants " jouent le jeu" et soient sensibles à l'importance de bien se nourrir.
I remember when I detoxed from sugar and how HARD it was. I wasn't even eating processed sugars, but when I cut everything out (fruit, honey, maple syrup...) the withdrawal was brutal. It was really revealing to me. I've eaten sugar since in small amounts, but if I ever eat more than small amounts... my body literally acts like I have a cold or virus (congestion, scratchy throat, foggy brain).
I totally get it. After I detoxed, I can only tolerate a wee bit of sugar (certainly not a good sized piece of cake, for eg) I will feel nauseous and my heart will start racing if I have too much sugar for my body.
You are the glucose whisperer! Thank you for the work that you are doing and generously sharing. I bought your book, Glucose Goddess Method and found it very informative. I was on a hamster wheel of glucose spikes, and coffee to lift me back up. I have had very little sugar and no coffee for a week now and don’t miss either one. Cannot believe how well your method works!
Love the hacks, but £46 for 60 capsules, oof! That's around 75p a capsule. The supplement industry is killing itself with today's crazy prices. If you can sell them at that, good luck to you. Think I'll stick with the teaspoon of vinegar in water, at around 0.7p a shot.
Instead of drinking vinegar, I eat a few dill pickle before my dinner. It takes care of both the veggies and vinegar parts, as I don't eat any other veggies.
You are seriously so amazing. Such a good story teller, smart, passionate, engaging, friendly. I love listening to your videos while I’m working around the house.
Humble?😂😂😂 the lady calls herself glucose goddess ffs and she goes on to explain in the video that her product is the best most effective on earth... humble is not quite the best qualificatif pour elle mdr
IF cured most of my sugar cravings, the the vegetables first hack really helped. Also adding the vinegar hack. Easy and yummy. I crave plain sparkling water with vinegar and lemon now. I save the sweets for dessert. These tips really did help.
You're good at explaining things and keeping one's attention; thank you for all of this work you did to help the rest of us struggling with this addiction
Intelligent and wise....also ur super addictive..accent...image and branding etc....ur definitely knocking the competition...u go hun... happy for you...u made it..u deserve it..ur a very hard worker
I'm on day 5 from eliminating rice, bread, and pasta from my diet. As well as added sugars such as cake, chocolate, and ice cream. I feel better but those first 2 days were really rough for me. I know I have a sugar addiction it genuinely feels like a mental struggle to deny anything with refinded sugars. I still consume fruit which I do my best to be mindful of. My current diet is meat, eggs, milk, and fruit. This video helps to stay on track.
Even as a kid I hated sweet breakfasts. I am all for savoury breakfasts (usually leftovers, which my mom loved so she didn’t have to eat them haha). Eating sweet breakfasts leaves me hungry.
when I was young I was hypoglycemic and my glucose level would go down to 1 ...so I was almost in a coma. I got tested in a private clinic because at the hospital they didn t do the test because it takes too long. I was always tired and had to sleep all the time and at 2 in the afternoon at work I would eat chocolate bars to be able to make it to 5 o clock. So I read the book Le mal du sucre which saved my life. And started eating that way for 5 years and got my health back on track. It was a long journey but I got my life back so it was worth it. Now I m 60 and I now what I have to eat and at what time to function normally. Maybe twice a week I ll eat whatever I want but as a way of life I try and eat healthy ...no processed foods, little sugar, no alcohol, little carbs and small portions.
The solution to our sugar cravings, according to large multinational corporations, is to keep us on an out-of-control glucose train so they can continue to get richer and richer and richer while we get sicker and sicker and blame ourselves for our "weakness" and "laziness". 😡
Thanks for all your great advice. I really enjoy watching your videos, they provide a lot of knowledge and are very helpful on a daily basis in choosing food when shopping, etc. Thank you ❤✨
Here is my beef with Anti-Spike. I was very excited about you mentioning this product and went to go peek at the ingredients. I have been on a lectin-free diet for the past several years and some particular lectins cause me more trouble than others. For example cucumber with seeds or skin, squashes, pumpkins, tomatoes, and bell peppers. So when I saw zucchini and cucumber in your formula I wondered if it was the powder of the whole vegetable or some kind of antioxidant derivative. I would really like to try it but I am worried that I will get a reaction.
I love this and I thank you so much for the practical solutions here. I don’t do well with controlling my emotions as I have tried and failed for many years, so having a practical solution is going to work wonders for me. Only day one and I already feel so much better. Thank you, thank you. My only question would be if eating rice with my meals are okay? I know this is a big tradition for Asian and Caribbean cultures.
I read a medical article that said how stress also creates cravings. I wish you’d talk about that and not just how lack of a good breakfast creates the 4 pm cravings.
I agree that stress can contribute to cravings. Stress can cause the release of hormones that prep the muscles and brain for the "fight or flight" response. But you can skip breakfast and just have the 2 other meals (or one meal if that works), and as long as you have enough animal protein (that is the best because it is nutrient-dense and has the necessary amino acids in the right amounts, especially red meat) and natural animal fats, you should not have cravings. Another benefit is that you won't be on the blood-sugar rollercoaster. And when burning fat for energy, it is a nice and calm, and steady burn. No concerns about, "hitting-the-wall". Breakfast is whenever your first meal of the day is, so when you break you fast from overnight due to sleeping, your first meal, at anytime, is your "breakfast". 😊
hi Jessie, can you please please please put your videos on spotify as a podcast? i would love for my husband to listen to all these important information while we're driving to places!
Decades ago I had a severe eating disorder. I was a hardcore sugar & junk food addict. I don't believe one ever fully recovers from an addiction like that, regardless of whether the addiction was alcohol, drugs, or sugar & refined carbs. I don't get the urge to binge eat like I used to but the marijuana munchies still can get the better of me on occasion. Anyway one way I've helped beat this vulnerability is to not buy any junk food. No empty calorie snacks; no cookies, chips, candy or sweet stuff. When I get the munchies all I have to munch on are nuts and dried fruits. I'm 73 and am sixty pounds lighter than I was at age nineteen.
I’m here after watching you on Lewis Howes program. I just ordered your book too. Love the artistic set you’ve created! You are a breath of fresh air. I’m 68.. not over weight, I lift weights, walk, and eat healthy except for those freaking chocolate cravings! I’m so excited to change my ways to lower those Glucose spikes. Thank you!
Wow! What a great video. I'm not quite sure how you landed in my suggested watch list but I am sure glad that you did! (I just ordered your book) Thank you.
Remember one thing that your videos provide me something no-one gives me before and you are a great soul i believe 😊 and so one that can't explain now💓💓💓

As someone with ADHD, I'm glad we touch on the dopamine topic. I find that a lot of the times I am not craving as much as sugar or so but a texture or a feeling. I find that a healthier compromise is eating foods that are complex in flavors and textures (many Asian countries foods hit that spot for me). If you are sensorial seeking through food, eating more sensorially satistfying meals helps a lot. Just had some korean bibimbap with spicy sauce, and some bachang and they left my mouth singing and it leaves me so pleased and mentally satisfied. And if not there are different kinds of curries from many countries, different thai dishes. If those are not options for you try to cook your meals that balance sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, salty and that have variety of textures that go with another. Try spices, try adding crushed nuts on things for texture, try things until you figure out what makes your mouth happy without having to be putting in a pound of sugar or chips in your mouth.

I can’t find the video now but I remember watching this Thai food channel and the hostess explaining the meals have to have (I don’t remember exactly) something fresh, something spicy, something wet, something dry and so, so they consider it a proper meal which I found fascinating
I’m so glad you’re talking about chocolate. Chocolate has been the giant in my room for many years, in so many forms, a real shape shifter.
For my sugar cravings i mix plain Greek yogurt, protein powder, maple syrup mix. Top with nuts and dark chocolate ❤
Why maple syrup?
Even maple is sugar 😝
Ive only been doing a savory breakfast for a couple of days now because of this channel, and I have already seen a drastic shift in my sugar cravings!! Ive been addicted to sugar for as long as I can remember and doing savory breakfasts and eating more protein has changed the game for me!! Thank you so much doctor!!
I've read that there's a HUGE link between ADHD/autism and sugar/food addiction. This doesn't mean that every person who has a sugar addiction is ND. Nor does it mean every ND person has a sugar addiction. But it is very common for people who are ND, and especially people with ADHD and/or autism to have sugar addictions (or addictions in general).
This is because one of the main symptoms of ADHD/ASD is irregular dopamine levels in the brain. Glucose gives us a dopamine boost, so it's very easy for us to become addicted to things like sugar or caffeine or other sources of dopamine. It's also more difficult for us to break these addictions because we are quite literally self-medicating. When engaged in our addictions, the "high" we get might actually feel very calming in addition to giving us energy. As if we have temporarily made out brains "normal". But the issue with sugar is that it does not sustain us for very long, and we crave more and more of it. Furthermore, we reap all of the negative side effects of sugar too. Sugar crashes, weight gain, high blood sugar, and worsened mental symptoms. There's a misconception that cutting sugar will "cure" ADHD or autism. It won't. There is no cure. But, it can definitely help. Replacing sugar with something healthier that provides a similar dopamine boost is a good way to insure you are still able to manage symptoms and get through your day, without all the negative side effects of too much sugar. This can mean asking your doctor about certain medications made specifically for ADHD/ASD. Or, if you don't want to take medicine, there are also some natural remedies. Drinking green tea with a little bit of honey, eating fruit instead of candy, exercising regularly, and trying your best to maintain a good sleep schedule can help. Furthermore, engaging in activities that provide you with dopamine helps. Listen to music you enjoy. Make art. Talk with friends. Spend time in nature. Essentially, do whatever it is that makes you happy. The happier you are, the less you will crave dopamine from unhealthy sources.
And trust me, I know that this is not easy. I am writing this as a woman who is 5'2" and 180lbs who has AuDHD and has been struggling for 6 years. I am watching this video because, after getting rejected from a job I really wanted, I've been feeling depressed and have fallen back into a lot of my bad habits, like eating a lot of sugar, sleeping all day, and not exercising. I need to remind myself to stop and get back on a healthy track. And for those who are struggling like this too, I want to try to provide some tips and help you out too if I can. We can get through this together. Remember, it's not your fault that your brain is the way that it is. You were just born like that, and feeling all sad and guilty only makes things worse. Your only job is to learn how to accept it, and work with it. Not fight it.
Something that's really been helping me in terms of motivating myself to work out has been learning how to work out in a way that is actually comfortable for me. I'm sure there are people who are talking about it, but personally I don't feel like I've seen nearly enough people speaking out about how insanely overstimulating exercise can actually be for even "high masking" autistics. Being hot, and sweaty, and sore, and cramping, and short of breath, and smelly, and surrounded by other people, and wearing clothes that role up or bunch up or don't support all your bouncy bits when you're running or jumping, and being yelled at by a coach, and being in a room with loud music or bright lights...It's actual sensory hell. For me working out has always been something I absolutely HATED unless it was done under very specific circumstances that ensured I was comfortable. I've found taking long walks in quiet/heavily shaded places (like hiking trails with lots of trees), swimming (because it keeps me from being sweaty and gross), or going to a gym when it is not very busy and has good air conditioning, are all things I genuinely enjoy doing. I've also found I enjoy working out by myself more than I do with other people, because I feel no pressure to push myself beyond my limits or compare myself to anyone else around me. But I also wear a Fitbit to track how many calories I am burning, which motivates me to stick to certain goals and ensure I'm also not going too easy on myself.
I'm going to go work out after I finish writing this post. And I wish all of my fellow struggling NDs strength to achieve their goals as well. You can do this. < 3
Thanks a tons for this helpful post. Wishing all the power to you in achieving your goal of keeping yourself healthy :)
Such positive vibes you girl! God bless😊
i got a job where I work in a dairy warehouse. It's great, with the temperature slightly above freezing I can work to my hearts content without getting hot and sweaty. I started taking whey protein isolate for breakfast and it was a game changer. Another thing that really helped me was using compression clothing. My skin being hyper-elastic and stretchy makes bouncing movements very uncomfortable. I probably have a type of EDS. The compression clothes keep everything aligned and feeling right. I have been obese my entire life since being a pre-teen, but at age 50 I have finally entered a healthy weight range, and I feel in the best shape of my life!
Sensory overload is important to monitor. I had no idea until my capacity was reduced and I got overloaded much easier. I highly recommend looking into Attentional Restoration Therapy, ART for short. Giving our brains some time to recharge our focus energy often cures what seems like physical tiredness. It makes it easier to make good decisions and provides the mental energy to accomplish the focused tasks we need to do.
You are so spot on!!! I've been eating "dinner for breakfast" for a few years. That said, I have been and still am a selective sugar junkie. I'm fit and not overweight because I workout five days a week (mostly hiking mountains, doing some pushups, dips, some ab work, and I'm 76 year young). I drink ACV every day throughout the day. It's diluted and, granted, it's an acquired taste, but one you can acquire because the outcome is so beneficial. All that you have just shared here will be strong aides for seriously reducing sugar in my life. Thank you. I've subscribed and look forward to more of your brain power.
Careful about sipping acv all day and your teeth, it softens your enamel and you may be wearing your teeth down when eating over time
How much ACV
Jessie - since watching you on Diary of a CEO, I flipped my day around and no longer start my day with anything sweet. It's been one of the best changes I've ever made in my life. I no longer get "hangry" and it lends itself so nicely to intermittent fasting which is also helping with some lifelong health issues. I can't thank you enough! :) PS - I would love to see you and Dr. Mindy Pelz on the same stage someday :)
Dr. Mindy is a chiropractor. Not a problem, necessarily, but she keeps it pretty quiet.

I'd much rather see Jesse and Professor Thomas Seyfried do a collab. That would be kinda sick even though Thomas is more in the cancer side of things
@sitcomchristian6886 I don't think that matters much if she's done the research and knows how to learn. People can be many things. I know a carpenter who is also an amazing potter; would I warn people that he's a carpenter when they look at his pottery? Of course not. People have many passions. I also know too many specialists with their heads in the sand who seemed to have stopped learning many years ago. Bodies should not be treated like the systems don't all interact with each other or that we know everything there is to know about them. It's how we got in this mess in the first place.
@Niko-Suave I'm not sure who that is but will check it out :)
You teach biochemistry in the most amazing way. You keep us engaged and empower us with incredible information that gives us the necessary tools to take control of our health. On a side note, please disregard any negative comments, always remember that haters are always going to hate (they’re human beings on the face of the earth walking with a gray cloud over their head and sometimes get struck by lightning and actually get worse….poor things). So getting back to the positive outlook, please know that I’ll be eternally grateful to you. I have been applying your hacks, making your recipes and I watch your videos (while walking on my treadmill). I have nothing but wonderful things to say about your teachings and they work! I no longer crave junk food and I no longer snack as I used to. My mental health and energy levels are outstanding. It’s fascinating reading all the research articles too. Thank you for your passion for the science and for giving us a fighting chance. Your follower for life! ❤
Eliminating carbs from my diet put an end to sugar cravings, and I was the worst sugar addict I know. It’s amazing that I was able to do it.
If people would take your simple advice, they could skip these long-winded videos.
But it's not good to eliminate all carbs. Carbs like veg and fruit provide important fiber. I've never eliminated a food group from the way I eat because I'm always active. A lot of people don't mention exercise but actually it's the key to maintaining a steady weight without obsessing over food.
Me to
My cravings come at night. No problem whatsoever during the day but night comes and boy I'm marching in and out of the kitchen like a lunatic. So I decided to tell my brain no food after 9pm. No 'healthy snack', no fruit, no just this time, nothing at all. Weirdly enough it's been real easy when before I was battling with my mind so much. I also agree that exercising regularly helps a lot balancing blood sugar and overall metabolism.
Gotta stick with it at first but then it becomes a real pleasure. Ofc we need to find exercises we enjoy. And consistency is definitely key. It doesn't matter if weight loss or whatever we're after is slow when we know we're going to keep this awesome lifestyle we picked for ourselves for ever.
Your book helped me get from diabetic to not diabetic, when the doctors tried to convince me of my body being incapable of producing insulin.
We need to educate the younger generations so that they don't have to go through the same ignorance that we had.

Thank you 🙏✨️💖
This was one long ad for that tablet.
@@csgloria 😂😂 You're totally right!
Hi Jessie. I saw a few of your videos recently for the 1st time. As I listened, everything that you said made perfect sense. I immediately ordered 2 of your books & started reading as soon as they were delivered. I was so anxious to try out what I had just read. You see, I am at rock bottom. I feel like I have no hope. UNTIL I SAW YOUR VIDEOS!!! I am a 54 year old female who has ballooned up to 374 lbs. My life is miserable. My entire body hurts & I can't walk more than a couple of feet without sounding like a chainsmoker. Because of my size I have become depressed & never want to leave the house. I am miserable & angry. My marriage is suffering. I feel like a loser because I can't control my food or my cravings. I feel ashamed & embarrassed by the way that I look. But today, my family & I went out to a nice restaurant for Easter dinner. I figured, "Might as well try out my new knowledge". I AM ASTONISHED! I ate a salad 1st, followed by 3 oz of filet mignon, then a scoop of mashed potatoes, & last, creme brulee. I ate this at 1:00 & it's all that I've eaten today. I'M NOT HUNGRY!!! 😲💃🤗 No energy slump today! I feel like a new woman. And it's only been 1 day! I will keep you posted after some more time goes by. Jessie, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. You have given me hope again! I think that you may have just given me my life back! 🥰
That is amazing & so encouraging to hear! Well done to you 👏👏👏 I'm hoping it can help me too as what you described pretty much describes my own situation & it's making me so miserable & hopeless 😞
The fact that you're seeking out Jessie's content and applying her hacks goes to show that you are on the way up! Keep going, the journey will be difficult but you are worth the effort and you'll thank yourself down the line. Don't forget to be kind to yourself
You are doing great!! Don't give up, and please be kind to yourself, you are amazing!
Thanx for sharing dear. I’ll keep you in my prayers. I teared up reading this
I’m so truly happy for you. Keep up the good work!!! You are a beautiful person. Thank you for sharing ❤
As a nutrition coach I must say you are a blessing for my flexible treatments, especially for people that don't want to move from their confort zone. Thanks a lot! I'd love to have an interview with you!
So happy this channel found me. Extremely grateful for the internet
I have been a severe hypoglycemic my entire life. This information will help me stabilize everything and hopefully stop craving high calorie foods.
Greek yogurt hits different with a cake , so nice ! In Greece we eat it with nuts and honey or with rice !
Yum 😋
@@sabinekoch3448I eat it with chia seeds or hemp seeds with choc powder to not add more sugar. I love chocolate.
For the moment it's like Winona Ryder talking about sugar cravings, amazing similarity
Oh it's WR !
I was thinking she looks soo familiar.. thanks
She's pretty indeed and u can def see the benefits of cutting out sugar,as her teint is really healthy as well
Actually😊
I can see it now lol. I love it!
It is fun to see you put your creativity in your stage set up, clothes, & to use your mighty brain to help us all. Thank you. It was fun & educational & I'm giving No Spike a try.
And I thought It was just distracting - and the diffrent camera angels givest it all just a extra ridiculous touch.
But the information is good! 😅
The setup was cool but the outfit was the worst
I start day with raw veggies - you are hungry and you can eat lot of veggies and greens with taste. Raw veggies help to clean my digestive system also. Then I can start eat proteins (sea weeds, yoghurts, chicken and others) ... Im climber and mountain runner.
Your books helped me go from pre diabetic to no longer pre diabetic. After holidays and now Mardi Gras season (King Cakes 😵💫), I am getting myself back to all I’ve learned from you! Love seeing the videos. You’ve helped me make major health improvements and I thank you 🙏
What are we going to do: avoid or indulge on once a year “King Cake?

Once a year isnt bad. It can be a treat. But good thing for me i dont live in nola anymore so i dont have to worry about it.
What's the name of the book
The Glucose Revolution, it’s superb…
I’m surprised I didn’t hear you talk about depleted estrogen. Women over a certain age are craving sugar (including alcohol) due to hormone insufficiency. The body needs fat if estrogen is low. HRT is immediately helpful with this and now widely recommended.
I gave up alcohol because it made me feel worse but sugar is much harder.
All the more reason to go on the carnivore diet.
@@lillieball7662if that's you in your pfp, you definitely _look_ like a carnivore.
It depends on the individual. In 2022, I had a breast cancer lumpectomy followed by radiation. I am now on hormone blocker medication for 5 years because estrogen and progesterone are like Miracle Grow for cancer cells (in my case.) I am now 69 and HRT is detrimental for me. Thank goodness I never took it.
You said sugar cravings and then mentioned needing fat. Would women maybe need to eat healthier fats with adequate protein?
Savoury breakfasts are a game changer for me. I’m not a diabetic but I’ve had breast cancer twice so keeping my insulin levels steady is imperative. Really impressed by the work you’ve done.
I really enjoyed this information. Especially the first hack you mentioned! I crave sugar the most immediately after having lunch and dinner, and sometimes even breakfast, no matter how full I am or how much protein I eat.
This is amazing! Thank you for your work ❤️ I noticed this yesterday. I had a protein shake for breakfast and felt completely satiated for about 6 hours. Mid-day I had a bowl of grapes on its own and the cravings just spiraled. I found myself going back to the kitchen every couple of hours to get something else, it was crazy! I was looking for an explanation and that is how I found you! I started my day with a protein shake and 2 hard boiled eggs this morning. I’m optimistic about how the rest of my day will go! Thanks doctor!
You literally just saved me, I didn’t know what to do anymore, thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
Just don't forget this information 😂❤
I put myself on a diet consisting of meats, vegetables and fruits. I also eat Greek yogurt and nuts. I don’t worry about calories. Before I put myself on this diet, I was eating chips, candy, cookies, bread, cake, etc. I had no energy and I was depressed. Since I started my diet, I have more energy. I’m not depressed. I’m not bloated. I’ve started walking more. I’ve decided to stay away from certain foods completely. Foods like bread are very addictive. I know that once I eat just one piece of bread, my brain will crave more. So I just stay away completely. I also stay away from canned foods.
This is a really good video. Thank you. Glad I found you. I actually do that for breakfast after years of drinking orange juice and having low blood sugar like I was going to pass out and constantly eating more sweet and carbohydrate. I now eat nuts, eggs, chicken- sausage, and a low-carb piece of bread, and I can “ not” eat all day long until dinner.
Thank you so much for sharing this very helpful information!! I’m a whole food plant based eater and usually do a 50/50 plate at every meal: 50% nonstarchy veggies and 50% starch and plant-based protein. Definitely love the savory breakfast concept!
For many years I’ve been eating leftovers for breakfast so I started making a big pot of stew with lots of veggies and some chicken and turmeric and other good things each week and have a bowl of that each morning. That gets me out of that craving loop. If I can’t have that (if I’m traveling or such) I always notice the difference.
I need a good breakfast stew/soup recipe! That sounds like a great way to start the day!
Great tip thanks ❤❤❤
Me too- I made a soup this week with carrots, onions, zucchini and cabbage plus pork and a few lentils. It was a perfect breakfast all week and I didn’t have to think about it.
This is a great hack
Finally RUclips recommended me a good RUclips channel 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom. It's been such a big help to me because i suffer with severe migraine attacks, fatigue, depression and anxiety, and changing the way i eat has really helped in many ways. God bless you

OMG,
Your hacks are priceless,,,
I just started doing it and my energy level over the day has shifted big time. I don't feel that energy crash as I used to,,,
Honestly the change is so radical am still in sock.
Thank you so much
You blew my mind with this info. I started to eat more protein especially for breakfast and if I wanted anything sweet, I’d save it for last. It absolutely works. I have less cravings now. THANK YOU!!!!
After watching your video, I ignored all your advice and I immediately felt so much better. Thank you for saving my life. Please post more.
I knew my protein focused diet is helping me with my cravings for a reason
Thank you, for this information! I'm 57 and since menopause at 47 I have gained so much weight even though I work out 5 times a week, am a vegetarian and get over 10,000 steps a day. I crave chocolate all the time but I do notice eating eggs for breakfast does seem to help. Now I know why.
12:50. This appears to be somewhat faulty or misleading information. I know what you meant to say but this is simply wrong Sorry.
1. Through immune system activities, we take apart foreign bacteria leading to a protein source.
2. Through intentional cell depth , apoptosis, followed by cleanup and , if possible ( assisted by fasting) autophagy, we have another protein source.
We cover 80-90% of our protein needs by this.
And, yes, the rest we get through food sources mentioned in this video. But the actual demand for fresh, external protein that our bodies need is not actually so great as we always belive or get told. Thank you.
Excellent episode and good hacks.
As I began eating fiber 1st , and protein/fats next, and low carb carbs, i I stopped eating sooner, my cravings stopped, and I went longer and longer between meals. And fasting began to happen naturally. My energy level is improving which was very bad. Thank u so much for your help. ❤
Your enthusiasm is infectious. Thx for the info.
As an undergraduate student studying Nutrition, I really admired your video! Living in a world that deals with an infodemic, I loved how everything you mentioned was based on scientific evidence and research, and it really motivates me to keep studying what I’m studying in hopes to solve a lot of nutritional problems in the future. On top of that, you give very clear explanations of things, very easy to understand which is also super important when it comes to sharing information.
This was overall informative and entertaining, thank you! Looking forward to watching more videos like this ☺️
I bet you're cute!
im so impressed with your work. from the production of this video to the execution of the science to your unique style! i’m so glad i found you, i feel so educated

I am so excited that I found you! After my kidney transplant I have developed New-Onset Diabetes. So looking forward to watching each and every episode! Thank you so much!
1- glucose crashes after a spike and it makes you crave more (addiction rollercoaster)
2- sugar produces dopamine which makes us feel better
3- body doesn’t receive enough protein and sends signals to eat but doesn’t specify to eat protein so we feel hungry and eat carbs
Speaking of vinegar, I marinate mini cucumbers using white 30% vinegar, blackcurrant leaves, dill, salt and very little sugar. I also marinate herring in vinegar and white onions.
You did it girl!!! Thank you for laying this out so clear and so simple! Straight up to the point! Thank you!!!❤

I think it will change my life and many years unwell. You Go Girl! ( I predict a load of copy cats coming soon, you turned good info in to easy hacks and followable hacks...GOLD!). Keep it up.
p.s no longer vegan, looking in to keto. Would lobe to hear you and Chris Palmer join some dots.
I loved her talking about her research and outcomes; this is how I think one should talk about their research. I know this is going to sound insane but being a research student myself I was hoping how fun and informative it would be if someone with enough knowledge on the topic counter-questioned her cause I have not heard anyone else talk about this stuff with this kind of glucose information. Many people talk about how to plan diets, fasting, and exercise and all but this is new and amazing I must say, No doubt she is a Glucose goddess.
P.S. I love all of her talks on every podcast and RUclips channel that I possibly came across.
Great episode!! If eating sugar gives us a wave of dopamine what about craving salt like in chips what happens in our biochemistry when we crave and eat salty stuff?
Chips are a carb so turn into sugar when they are broken down.
Maybe it's a mineral shortage and that's why you crave salts.
Electrolytes will solve it imo
your body is dehydrated and needs good wet and salt! Chips are sweet and full of sugar
Low blood pressure usually
When one craves salty foods , its a symptom that your body needs protein.
I have been following glucose goddess method for more than a year now and its absolutely life changing
My cravings are at peace now
Hunger is satisfied for longer periods
Periods are regulated and i have lost weight too
And i am more happy now 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you jessie❤❤❤❤
I am following you almost 2 years! you made me obsessed with food and sugar!! I hope to see more from you.
Lemon and lime does the same as vinegar and eating grapefruit- personal experience. If lemon peel extract is so good, then we can just juice a whole lemon with skin.
Thank you for the science! It makes it so much easier for me to stick to the hacks when I understand the how 🎉
I would love for the research you talked about, to be done on women with either endometriosis or pcos, at different times in their cycle.
Hâte de voir la suite ! Merci beaucoup pour tous vos conseils, nous les suivons en famille, je suis contente que mes enfants " jouent le jeu" et soient sensibles à l'importance de bien se nourrir.
I remember when I detoxed from sugar and how HARD it was. I wasn't even eating processed sugars, but when I cut everything out (fruit, honey, maple syrup...) the withdrawal was brutal. It was really revealing to me. I've eaten sugar since in small amounts, but if I ever eat more than small amounts... my body literally acts like I have a cold or virus (congestion, scratchy throat, foggy brain).
I totally get it. After I detoxed, I can only tolerate a wee bit of sugar (certainly not a good sized piece of cake, for eg) I will feel nauseous and my heart will start racing if I have too much sugar for my body.
Brilliant way to blunt sugar spikes - add protein, fat and fiber❤️💫
You are the glucose whisperer! Thank you for the work that you are doing and generously sharing. I bought your book, Glucose Goddess Method and found it very informative. I was on a hamster wheel of glucose spikes, and coffee to lift me back up. I have had very little sugar and no coffee for a week now and don’t miss either one. Cannot believe how well your method works!
Love the hacks, but £46 for 60 capsules, oof! That's around 75p a capsule. The supplement industry is killing itself with today's crazy prices. If you can sell them at that, good luck to you. Think I'll stick with the teaspoon of vinegar in water, at around 0.7p a shot.
Cinnamon is also good for this. I make ginger and cinnamon every morning. Its been really helping
Is impossible to keep up with all of them
You are just selling your product, why not said straight away!
Instead of drinking vinegar, I eat a few dill pickle before my dinner. It takes care of both the veggies and vinegar parts, as I don't eat any other veggies.
Super presentation with camera and voice. As a child our parents served dinner for breakfast. And no lunch with light carb evening meal.

Hi Jessie-Angel, this was absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much for this and I can't wait to see the next one. ❤ Lots of love and hugs, Elisabeth
I'm on day 5 from eliminating rice, bread, and pasta from my diet. As well as added sugars such as cake, chocolate, and ice cream. I feel better but those first 2 days were really rough for me. I know I have a sugar addiction it genuinely feels like a mental struggle to deny anything with refinded sugars. I still consume fruit which I do my best to be mindful of. My current diet is meat, eggs, milk, and fruit. This video helps to stay on track.
Even as a kid I hated sweet breakfasts. I am all for savoury breakfasts (usually leftovers, which my mom loved so she didn’t have to eat them haha). Eating sweet breakfasts leaves me hungry.
You are great and most articulate. What about only eating meat, eating until satisfied, then not eating again until hungry?
I am so much enjoying the information and working on it .
when I was young I was hypoglycemic and my glucose level would go down to 1 ...so I was almost in a coma. I got tested in a private clinic because at the hospital they didn t do the test because it takes too long. I was always tired and had to sleep all the time and at 2 in the afternoon at work I would eat chocolate bars to be able to make it to 5 o clock. So I read the book Le mal du sucre which saved my life. And started eating that way for 5 years and got my health back on track. It was a long journey but I got my life back so it was worth it. Now I m 60 and I now what I have to eat and at what time to function normally. Maybe twice a week I ll eat whatever I want but as a way of life I try and eat healthy ...no processed foods, little sugar, no alcohol, little carbs and small portions.
The solution to our sugar cravings, according to large multinational corporations, is to keep us on an out-of-control glucose train so they can continue to get richer and richer and richer while we get sicker and sicker and blame ourselves for our "weakness" and "laziness". 😡
omg i love her so much her first hack is an endorsement of dessert over snacks go queen
Thanks for all your great advice. I really enjoy watching your videos, they provide a lot of knowledge and are very helpful on a daily basis in choosing food when shopping, etc. Thank you ❤✨
Here is my beef with Anti-Spike. I was very excited about you mentioning this product and went to go peek at the ingredients. I have been on a lectin-free diet for the past several years and some particular lectins cause me more trouble than others. For example cucumber with seeds or skin, squashes, pumpkins, tomatoes, and bell peppers. So when I saw zucchini and cucumber in your formula I wondered if it was the powder of the whole vegetable or some kind of antioxidant derivative. I would really like to try it but I am worried that I will get a reaction.
Often I freeze mixture of Greek yogurt with honey/ dates and almonds such a delicious treat 🤤

Delicious- what a good idea.
I love this and I thank you so much for the practical solutions here. I don’t do well with controlling my emotions as I have tried and failed for many years, so having a practical solution is going to work wonders for me. Only day one and I already feel so much better. Thank you, thank you.
My only question would be if eating rice with my meals are okay? I know this is a big tradition for Asian and Caribbean cultures.
I read a medical article that said how stress also creates cravings. I wish you’d talk about that and not just how lack of a good breakfast creates the 4 pm cravings.
Excellent point.
I agree that stress can contribute to cravings.
Stress can cause the release of hormones that prep the muscles and brain for the "fight or flight" response.
But you can skip breakfast and just have the 2 other meals (or one meal if that works), and as long as you have enough animal protein (that is the best because it is nutrient-dense and has the necessary amino acids in the right amounts, especially red meat) and natural animal fats, you should not have cravings.
Another benefit is that you won't be on the blood-sugar rollercoaster.
And when burning fat for energy, it is a nice and calm, and steady burn.
No concerns about, "hitting-the-wall".
Breakfast is whenever your first meal of the day is, so when you break you fast from overnight due to sleeping, your first meal, at anytime, is your "breakfast". 😊

hi Jessie, can you please please please put your videos on spotify as a podcast? i would love for my husband to listen to all these important information while we're driving to places!
This is pure gold.
Decades ago I had a severe eating disorder. I was a hardcore sugar & junk food addict. I don't believe one ever fully recovers from an addiction like that, regardless of whether the addiction was alcohol, drugs, or sugar & refined carbs. I don't get the urge to binge eat like I used to but the marijuana munchies still can get the better of me on occasion.
Anyway one way I've helped beat this vulnerability is to not buy any junk food. No empty calorie snacks; no cookies, chips, candy or sweet stuff. When I get the munchies all I have to munch on are nuts and dried fruits. I'm 73 and am sixty pounds lighter than I was at age nineteen.
Great to hear again from you! Very stylish Episode! 🙏🥰😎🇩🇪
I’m here after watching you on Lewis Howes program. I just ordered your book too. Love the artistic set you’ve created! You are a breath of fresh air. I’m 68.. not over weight, I lift weights, walk, and eat healthy except for those freaking chocolate cravings! I’m so excited to change my ways to lower those Glucose spikes. Thank you!
Wow! What a great video. I'm not quite sure how you landed in my suggested watch list but I am sure glad that you did! (I just ordered your book) Thank you.
