I remember when I visited my grandmother at home and she dropped some serious wisdom on me, she said " My grandson, One day some people will waste their time reading your comment" Today is that day
This is one of Chris Heria's most educational, informative, and thought provoking videos on overall health and diet! Very grateful and thankful for this video! In addition to having the art of physique; Chris is a Humanitarian! Since I have finally overcome my terrible addiction to sugar; I have dropped 7 pounds, and I am actually starting to see my muscles again, from leaning out! Great health is the ultimate wealth!
@@premravikalyan Did you know rice is converted directly to glucose and is more insuligenic than table sugar, not saying it's bad though, but don't fall foe this sugar=evil fad, at your age you need sugar to thrive.
I'm strictly stopping all cane sugar based sweeteners. I still occasionally have maple syrup, or honey. Also, your mental strength increases immensely from quitting sugar.
I'm 17 and have been overweight for most of my life. Due to dad influencing me and stuff like that I got to a point where I just hated how I looked which transformed into Anorexia. I lost an insane amount of weight and still working to figure it out but your channel has helped me so much with trying to become healthy and fit at the same time. I don't really have a point of reference for what that looks like in my life so I just wanted to say thank you for doing this type of content.
Same here was 15 years old 130kilos lost my weight to around 85. And now am currently 96 a weight gain of 11kgs but yes it is motivating to see someone who has gone through the same experience I have.
Listen bro, the first step in fixing any issue is seeing a problem, then creating a plan to combat the issue, and following through to see results. You’re headed in the right direction and the body is highly mailable. Keep taking steps to be healthier, but don’t do it in a way that you aren’t happy with where you’re currently at. Enjoy every step along the way, because it truly is about the journey and not the end result. I spent 4-5 years getting a shredded physique, and life didn’t get any better. It’s about the journey and good health, that’s really it.
You’re amazing !! You’re so loved and you are perfect!! Keep doing what you’re doing and so glad we have this channel to help us all in the ways that it does! Have an amazing day !!!
Maybe dad had his reasons valid or non valid. He might have a lack of knowledge energy or motivation to do it the proper way. Since he had the reasoning as he has. Most things have a cause, they eaven have, if they dont. Be an example take the first step to create harmony. 🎉
As a 33 year old American adult, sugar IS MY BIGGEST CRAVING TO KICK. I'm glad videos like this on RUclips exist to help me find alternatives. Thanks Chris!
Just like salt It's a natural craving that the body has developed over millions of years. Nothing wrong with sugar. It unfortunately gets the blame from what PUFA caused just as saturated fat, salt and cholesterol all got blamed and then found out later they are all necessary for life.
@@elliotthelms4206 I enjoy eating Blue corn tortilla chips from target. Once I start eating some chips, my cravings take over and I'll finish half the bag in one sitting. It's a fight my brain has with my will. The brain is a fascinating organ. I can't blame my tongue all the time.
1month and 19 days in! with no sugar and low carb diet> he is speaking facts!!. I sleep so much better and so much energy with my workouts. I feel like superman everyday!
What exactly is low carb, though? I am on a bulk, so I actually need them. I can get protein and fats, but without the carbs, i will not gain the weight to bulk up. After I get there, I can cut back, but right now, is there an alternative?
good video but It's amazing how few people have heard of the banned Borlest books,I have a suggestion for those who train to read a book called "You are stronger than you think".the book contains secrets about the hormone (testosterone)
Chris you probably won't see this, but I wanted to tell you that you're a big inspiration for me. I was 150 kg when I started to watch your videos. I am now 125 kg and keep losing weight, mostly just from cutting products that have additional sugar and also trying to add your exercises from home to my routine every other day. I'm amazed with how good it can feel to actually live healthily. thank you so much, you're the best, for real! I wish I could thank you in person
Im not eating sugar from over a year i feel very active after leaving sugar, sugar really makes us lethargic, chris is really doing a great job making people aware about sugar, because now a days refined sugar is very common in a lot of eating stuff
The educational aspect of this video is 10/10 bro im in med school and i feel like i could use this as supplemental for a diabetes lecture/ effects of added sugars on the body. Loved this content bro definitely wanna see more stuff like this!!
I am a gun tube person I usually just watch instructional shooting videos on youtube only. But I am so glad that I subscribed this channel. This is pure gold! You're not just helping people, Your saving lives. Seriously your influencing people to live longer and you deserve an award for that you rock dude!!
Thanks to you and some other people I switched my diet to low carb/keto I try to not eat more than 70g of carbs each day and I cut added sugar almost to zero, the sugar I eat is from fruits or berries 😁 I dropped 7kg this year alone and achieved the next grade in bouldering 💪🏻 I didn't even have problems with dropping sugar, no headache or anything
@szn1580 yea, I have stopped consuming soda and sweet snacks for 3 years, and now whenever I try those food, they just taste so weird and I don't feel good
@@szn1580Yeah, but not so dramatic, I haven't been eating food that contains sugar at all (I checked all recipes) for about six months and than I didn't want to eat it at all. Moreover sugar seemed unappealing to me
@@DmitriiKubritskiithanks for the reply! Did you feel a massive difference? Did your energy and sleep massively improve? Did you notice any other changes since switching away from sugar? I have a sugar problem myself
Perfect video teaching the best wisdom, thank's a ton Chris, I always wanted a full clear explanation into this and finally got an indepth analysis into this, Chris's golden wisdom indeed
You’re a gem for this one brother! Great video with well thought out dialogue, message, info, and good visuals! I cut out added sugar a year or so ago because I always felt terrible immediately after consuming. I just have fruits for natural sugar. No addiction although I do miss it and crave it when I see sweets. It’s a lifelong battle as these food producers have added sugar to make us addicted to their foods like how they add high fructose corn syrup in everything.
Two weeks of a low-carb and no-sugar dairy diet healed my cystic acne, which I had been suffering from for two years. My skin glows, and I no longer feel tired after eating or when I wake up.
Just wow. This video is absolutely that people need right now in America and other countries. Too much people enjoy added suggars from cola, burgers, pizza, cookies, etc. I'm from Ukraine and always love your exercise episodes, but THIS video is something special, because of truth and importance!
as someone who has recovered from an ed & cut out sugar for months now, i can most definitely confirm this video true! when i had my ed, sugar was practically a drug to me that i got my daily dopamine fix with, but i would never feel good afterwards. i always felt weak, tired, irritable & depressed. that is when i decided to cut out sugar to improve my diet to overcome my ed & it worked miracles for me both physically & mentally. the way chris explained the timeline of how your body reacts without sugar overtime is exactly how it was for me. my cravings died down like never before & i never thought it would be possible, but i was able to control myself & no longer craved the dopamine fix that came from cookies, cake etc. my workouts also got better & better & i am able to sleep perfectly every night. but of course, i will have added sugar here & there IN MODERATION & know when i've had enough, as i know how it will make me feel if i overconsume it. the only thing i cannot relate to is the skin part & this is solely because my acne is based on my genetics & hormones so no amount of sugar i limit will help, unfortunately. however, i have seen it work wonders in plenty of other people's skin before! so is it worth it to cut out sugar? absolutely. you can still live your life & enjoy sweet treats, you will just be more mindful & know what other alternatives there are & it will overall help you in the long run! good luck guys!
Thanks Chris I actually needed this video I have like 4-5 tea spoons of sugar in cup of tea and have a few a day and loads junk food and other stuff it’s time to change my way I just started calthesnic because off you and bought your programs going to cut the sugar out and start my journey off a new me and hopefully a shredded me
Am I the only one who is actually more tired and less energetic when I cut sugar out completely, or carbs, or junk food ? That’s why everyday I eat 80% healthy + low calorie foods and 20% anything I want BUT in moderation and not overeating ! ❤
Nobody said you should cut out carbs. It's about pure glucose, aka refined sugar. There are plenty of carbs you can eat. Think about rice, sweet potato, fruits, vegetables, quinoa, etc Of course you won't have a lot of energy if you eat no carbs at all lmao.
Chris heria This was some amazing health knowledge I’ve hadn’t heard in a long while since physics health class.. even everyone has there Own stats of health facts out there. But literally, I needed it hear something like this so thanks for you’re great inspiration and keep it going Man. And I salute to your great establishments. 💪🏽👍 Sincerely Jake.
just to warn you guys: actually after just one week you skin wont clear up, it most probably will get worse for a while, since your body is going through a detoxication process. But ive seen it getting better after 3 weeks, after also cutting carbsand dairy to a minimum
As a diabetic I can tell you this little rice, one slice of bread, two pieces of fruit and a small serving of yoghurt is the perfect amount of natural sugar for ine day, for one person
Thank you for the informative video! What about using honey and maple syrup, two sweeteners given to us from nature... would they be considered 'added' sugars or 'natural' sugars?
I say you track how much sugar you would consume be honest with yourself and cut it 50% then get to 50g then get it to 30g it’s okay to miss a day along the way but when I counted my sugar intake on a bad day when I was 21 it was a whopping 240 lol redbulls large mcds coke sour patch kids sweet bread sugary alcoholic drinks ice cream and luckily I was healthy thru all that and I stoped myself
as a med student I can also add that fructose can enter muscle tissue directly while glucose needs to be transported via channels into the cells which requires ATP ( energy). its actually interesting if you think about it. Fructose can therefore provide your muscle cells faster with energy than normal glucose. amazing video Chris, I like your medical content!
4 weeks in with no added sugar and switching diet to high fibre , low calorie and nutrient rich one. My acne has started to heal , my back used to be filled with pimples now it is healing. No more swelling or redness on joints. Feeling more happy. My life has changed
You don't need carbs at all. There are plenty of examples of people only eating meat their entire lives and are in the best shape possible. Your body creates all the glucose it needs on its own.
I don't believe he said you need carbs, but that you need glucose. That said, there are other reasons why purely meat eating isn't necessarily fully healthy for the body, though it often comes from essential vitamins we need to intake and such. It's definitely not the worst diet, but having a mix of veggies, fruits and generally white meats is often the best diet with vitamins, proteins, and glucose
@@seaoc6578i wouldnt only eat meat all day cause i like my fruit but saying that you lack vitamins is wrong. Beef fat (and eggs) literally cover everything on the vitamin and mineral side of things
@@arkiststark It depends on how much you eat a day. The whole thing with scurvy is that a carnivore diet can lack Vitamin C unless you eat a sufficient amount (if I'm not mistaken it's around 2.5 lbs per day) of good meat. So it depends on the quantity and the freshness of the meat as well. That said, eggs do have a lot of vitamins in them as well.
Stevia and monk fruit have 1 concern. The sweetness triggers your body to make insulin anyway. But the sugar it expected isn't there. So when you eat Stevia or monk fruit or any other sweetner, make sure to eat it with some carbs.
@@judasblewit ye dont believe everything you read on the internet theres 0 evidence this happens, id advise doing more research to see who you believe 👍
I am 58 and lift weight daily/cycle and surf. I gave up sugars/food additives around one year ago and would not have believed the difference it has made in my moods, leanness and health. The first month is hard, but like giving up other bad habits it's worth it.
I've been off added sugars for many, many years now. I quit after college and it was one of the best decisions of my life. And Chris is right. Quitting it for food is insanely difficult. You'd be so surprised just how many foods at the grocery store have added sugar, even ones you think wouldn't have any!
I stopped eating added sugar last summer and here are the most noticablr diffrences 1. You sleep much better 2. You feel better physicaly and mentaly by having a lot more energy
This is the second day I have stopped consuming added sugar, from initially consuming 45-65 grams/day, yesterday I only consumed around 18-24 grams of sugar. what I feel is My wound healing is now starting to improve, and I can't wait to see the other benefits
learned alot nice vid, and also after about 11 days your tastebuds will be more neutral and you will begin to like foods and drinks that are more acidic and alkaline booring food becomes normal food
You literally just explained to me why I don't really EVER get joint pain, why I look so skinny, and why I don't have acne. (I am a teenager, and my family doesn't really have any money for sugary things, so I only really have access to healthier options, when I do get food that is.)
when I found out I'm prediabetic, I had to change the way I eat *fast* because I literally cannot afford to be diabetic in the usa. If you're just starting your journey to cutting back on sugar, substitutions will work best to help you start the switch. I went from drinking mostly soda all day every day to only water using a no carb additive flavoring to my water (I love crystal light but there are many to choose from). I now drink 10-16 cups (8 fl oz) of water per day. Sugar free candy helped as well, but be careful and keep your portions small as most sugar substitutes cause gastrointestinal distress over a certain amount (I keep isomalt, for example, at 64g per day or 4 sugar free werther's candies to avoid bubble guts). Replace the desserts with fruit. If one of your issues is food prep for whatever reason, fruit cups (make sure it's in water or juice and *not* syrup) and quite a few brands of greek yogurts (my fave is Chobani) are great substitutions. Start cutting out anything with a bunch of added sugar and absolutely everything that has corn syrup, glucose syrup, etc (and ESPECIALLY high fructose corn syrup - they like to sneak it into so many foods here in the usa it's absolutely ridiculous)
Some true facts my friend, I am an addict! But I've cut my intake of sugar in half, and see the difference. So Im ready to completely eliminate all the bs! Thanks for reassurance on this plague!
I cut out 95% of my sugar consumption almost a year ago. Super happy with that decision. I feel so much better, no more afternoon crash, better sleep, I lost weight, less joint pains, way clearer skin. I really didn’t find it difficult to cut it out. After a few weeks I started to lose interest in sugary foods. I have literally no interest in anything sugary now.
I'm very happy that the info here is correct by simply saying: If you eat the amount of Carbohydrates you need, you don't need added sugar (simple sugars), that's perfect! We need carbs don't cut them but simple sugary stuff we don't but one here and there will not hurt you ;)
Actually my mid back muscles are sore, specially rhomboid area is sore for a week now, it feels so demotivated that just resting all day without any workout, and even walking feels boring, then the same sugar craving happens to me, I binge watching and eating all those dirty things, that I didn't consume earlier when I used to workout, but bro after this video, I must cut all the added sugars and just relying on natural sugars, as that will ig worsen my back condition...... Thank you so much Chris, this video is definitely a helpful one❤😊🫂
I used to weight around 132kg around 3.5 years ago. lost more than 35 killograms after quiting sugar completely for around 10 months: I was on 1500 kcal a day and my diet consisted of only eggs, mushroms, meat (chicken breast), olive oil (+_ a spoon a day), broculi, calaflower, cucumber, tomato and carrot After around 2 months some of my health conditions like random pains, skin and joint issues went away completely. During that time I wasn't sick a single time. After reaching +_94kg I was in my peak form so far when it comes to how I felt about condition of my mind and body. I had lots of energy and I wasn't sick for a long time despite being prone to sickness before... Then I started bulking again (and quit the no-sugar diet) to gain some muscle and then cutting again and so on and so forth... Currently I think that I'd like to get to around 80/85kg (currently around 97kg after recent bulk). Yesterday started cutting again... this time around I no longer quit sugar due to the fact that I'm not in position to do that from financial perspective... I honestly think that if not for the inflation and constant price rises people's diets would be better since diet based on processed carbs like bread and pasta and even stuff like rice is more cost efficient than meat&veiges based diet... I can buy half a killogram of raw pasta for less than a dollar and have enough food for myself for a couple of days or I can spend 5$ for 0.8 killogram of chicken breast daily... well I no longer can afford to do so but if someone who's reading this comment does have that posibility then by all means I highly advice to try doing so!
Word of warning about MonkFruit. It's almost always mixed with erythritol (typically many times more erythritol than monk fruit) to give it a 1:1 ratio for replacing sugar. Erythritol has recently been linked with increased risk of blood clots and heart problems as well as nausea. Powdered stevia is also often mixed with erythritol. I always go for the liquid stevia

There are plenty of carbs you can eat.
Think about rice, sweet potato, fruits, vegetables, quinoa, etc
Of course you won't have a lot of energy if you eat no carbs at all lmao.
No carbs will leave you with zero energy. Sugar has nothing to do with that.
Sugar gives you instant energy.It's normal to feel less energetic when you stop eating it.After a few days the feeling will go away.

Chris heria This was some amazing health knowledge I’ve hadn’t heard in a long while since physics health class.. even everyone has there Own stats of health facts out there. But literally, I needed it hear something like this so thanks for you’re great inspiration and keep it going Man. And I salute to your great establishments. 💪🏽👍 Sincerely Jake.
just to warn you guys: actually after just one week you skin wont clear up, it most probably will get worse for a while, since your body is going through a detoxication process. But ive seen it getting better after 3 weeks, after also cutting carbsand dairy to a minimum
As a diabetic I can tell you this little rice, one slice of bread, two pieces of fruit and a small serving of yoghurt is the perfect amount of natural sugar for ine day, for one person
Proceeds to eat a Strawberry Bar while watching this
This is all SO real. I can 100% recommend this to anyone who has what it takes
My biggest weakness is sugar,I have a sweet tooth .😖
Thank you for the informative video! What about using honey and maple syrup, two sweeteners given to us from nature... would they be considered 'added' sugars or 'natural' sugars?
How about Splenda?.....thoughts?.....Not me just buying a huge bag of it.. help🙃
Not good, sucralose is bad
I’ll put it this way if you stop smoking to start vaping cause it’s “healthier” what changed lol
@@MrLos-lq4vl So cut sugar cold turkey then?
I say you track how much sugar you would consume be honest with yourself and cut it 50% then get to 50g then get it to 30g it’s okay to miss a day along the way but when I counted my sugar intake on a bad day when I was 21 it was a whopping 240 lol redbulls large mcds coke sour patch kids sweet bread sugary alcoholic drinks ice cream and luckily I was healthy thru all that and I stoped myself
@@MrLos-lq4vl your analogy is pure rubbish, Equal and Splenda ARE recommended by doctors for diabetics . . . so STFU
as a med student I can also add that fructose can enter muscle tissue directly while glucose needs to be transported via channels into the cells which requires ATP ( energy). its actually interesting if you think about it. Fructose can therefore provide your muscle cells faster with energy than normal glucose.
amazing video Chris, I like your medical content!
eat fruits, not processed sugar.
Sugar is sugar, the body's metabolism does not discriminate.
@@savagepro9060 wrong, the body processes diferent sugars in different ways. Fructose is processed differently than granulated sucrose.
@@immaelmusic Oh yeah, how about THAT, they all share this --->> glycemic index (GI) that raises your blood sugar, waiting for your rebuttal
@@savagepro9060 fructose does not raise blood sugar or trigger insuline release, granulated sucrose does.
@@immaelmusic Damn I got my data mixed up . . . fck! You win, but don't laugh!
4 weeks in with no added sugar and switching diet to high fibre , low calorie and nutrient rich one. My acne has started to heal , my back used to be filled with pimples now it is healing. No more swelling or redness on joints. Feeling more happy. My life has changed
You don't need carbs at all. There are plenty of examples of people only eating meat their entire lives and are in the best shape possible. Your body creates all the glucose it needs on its own.
I don't believe he said you need carbs, but that you need glucose. That said, there are other reasons why purely meat eating isn't necessarily fully healthy for the body, though it often comes from essential vitamins we need to intake and such. It's definitely not the worst diet, but having a mix of veggies, fruits and generally white meats is often the best diet with vitamins, proteins, and glucose
@@seaoc6578i wouldnt only eat meat all day cause i like my fruit but saying that you lack vitamins is wrong. Beef fat (and eggs) literally cover everything on the vitamin and mineral side of things
@@arkiststark It depends on how much you eat a day. The whole thing with scurvy is that a carnivore diet can lack Vitamin C unless you eat a sufficient amount (if I'm not mistaken it's around 2.5 lbs per day) of good meat. So it depends on the quantity and the freshness of the meat as well. That said, eggs do have a lot of vitamins in them as well.
Been sugar-free for 3 months now ,Thank You!
Chris like this if you think pronas is good at calisthenics
I have heard that you have achieved a 1.9 hour full Planche one arm hold
Can you share the secred👩🏾🦯
🧑🏿🍼🙅🏿👼🏿💏🤹🏿♂️👨🏿🤓😒🥳
very educative. Chris be speaking like a medical expert
Most fit guy I ever knew didn't like the taste of sugar.
Thank you man. Following your tips helped me already lose 7 pounds in a week hope I'm ready by summer
Stevia and monk fruit have 1 concern.
The sweetness triggers your body to make insulin anyway. But the sugar it expected isn't there.
So when you eat Stevia or monk fruit or any other sweetner, make sure to eat it with some carbs.
Interesting. Never knew that. Maybe I'll try to stop drinking stevia.
@@judasblewit ye dont believe everything you read on the internet theres 0 evidence this happens, id advise doing more research to see who you believe 👍
@@Samrod-nj8wkAgree, I haven’t seen anything proving that
Bro, your pancreas depends on the blood not on your tongue.
I am 58 and lift weight daily/cycle and surf. I gave up sugars/food additives around one year ago and would not have believed the difference it has made in my moods, leanness and health. The first month is hard, but like giving up other bad habits it's worth it.
who is watching this while eating candy😂😂
Just had the thought to make a huge bowl of apple jacks 😂
Well at least you heard the info about sugar😂😂
Diabolical lol
I've been off added sugars for many, many years now. I quit after college and it was one of the best decisions of my life. And Chris is right. Quitting it for food is insanely difficult. You'd be so surprised just how many foods at the grocery store have added sugar, even ones you think wouldn't have any!
I stopped eating added sugar last summer and here are the most noticablr diffrences
1. You sleep much better
2. You feel better physicaly and mentaly by having a lot more energy
Thank You for this video!,
I NEED to become mentally stronger to win the fight against REFINED sugar!
This video is amazing. Very educational and visually appealing. Chris FTW
This is the second day I have stopped consuming added sugar, from initially consuming 45-65 grams/day, yesterday I only consumed around 18-24 grams of sugar. what I feel is My wound healing is now starting to improve, and I can't wait to see the other benefits
9 months sugar free to this day, one of the best decisions of my life, finally I could achieve my goal of lower my bf %
learned alot nice vid, and also after about 11 days your tastebuds will be more neutral and you will begin to like foods and drinks that are more acidic and alkaline booring food becomes normal food
Amazing video. Love the way you speak and explain. Immediately subscribed!
That’s why I added your advice to my e-book. You are a great influence. Honestly, I’d love to know what is your greatest accomplishment?
I'm really grateful i already quit eating sugar from two last year, and my workout performance getting better and i get less pimples.
We can definitely count on Chris for the best quality vids 🙏
You literally just explained to me why I don't really EVER get joint pain, why I look so skinny, and why I don't have acne. (I am a teenager, and my family doesn't really have any money for sugary things, so I only really have access to healthier options, when I do get food that is.)
when I found out I'm prediabetic, I had to change the way I eat *fast* because I literally cannot afford to be diabetic in the usa. If you're just starting your journey to cutting back on sugar, substitutions will work best to help you start the switch. I went from drinking mostly soda all day every day to only water using a no carb additive flavoring to my water (I love crystal light but there are many to choose from). I now drink 10-16 cups (8 fl oz) of water per day. Sugar free candy helped as well, but be careful and keep your portions small as most sugar substitutes cause gastrointestinal distress over a certain amount (I keep isomalt, for example, at 64g per day or 4 sugar free werther's candies to avoid bubble guts). Replace the desserts with fruit. If one of your issues is food prep for whatever reason, fruit cups (make sure it's in water or juice and *not* syrup) and quite a few brands of greek yogurts (my fave is Chobani) are great substitutions. Start cutting out anything with a bunch of added sugar and absolutely everything that has corn syrup, glucose syrup, etc (and ESPECIALLY high fructose corn syrup - they like to sneak it into so many foods here in the usa it's absolutely ridiculous)
Some true facts my friend, I am an addict! But I've cut my intake of sugar in half, and see the difference. So Im ready to completely eliminate all the bs! Thanks for reassurance on this plague!
Wow! You really opened my eyes. Great video. Thank you.
I cut out 95% of my sugar consumption almost a year ago. Super happy with that decision. I feel so much better, no more afternoon crash, better sleep, I lost weight, less joint pains, way clearer skin. I really didn’t find it difficult to cut it out. After a few weeks I started to lose interest in sugary foods. I have literally no interest in anything sugary now.
I have made the decision to begin a sugarless diet starting today. I’ll be back in a month to report the results and updates.
Thank you fine sir 🙏🏽 Very informative! Cancer loves artificial sugar, if having sugar only in moderation & opt for natural fruit or plant sugar 🌱
Best decision I ever made to my diet and my skin is flawless for it.
Chris, Love these informative videos. Awesome stuff 🙏🎗✨
I remembered i managed to cut out sugar for 3 years and now I've gone back to it😭this has motivated me to try and stop again
Great video, progression is very well organized which keeps it engaging throughout. Nice!
Thanks for a very informative video. It’s greatly appreciated as I’m on a journey to cut out sugar. 👍🏾👊🏾😎
When your sibling asks if they can have a piece of your cake 6:13
I'm very happy that the info here is correct by simply saying: If you eat the amount of Carbohydrates you need, you don't need added sugar (simple sugars), that's perfect!
We need carbs don't cut them but simple sugary stuff we don't but one here and there will not hurt you ;)
Actually my mid back muscles are sore, specially rhomboid area is sore for a week now, it feels so demotivated that just resting all day without any workout, and even walking feels boring, then the same sugar craving happens to me, I binge watching and eating all those dirty things, that I didn't consume earlier when I used to workout, but bro after this video, I must cut all the added sugars and just relying on natural sugars, as that will ig worsen my back condition...... Thank you so much Chris, this video is definitely a helpful one❤😊🫂
Yes cutting sugar and carbs will eliminate inflammation in your body therefore reducing your pain in your body
@@bballah9969 bro carbs are fine, just have to cut the added sugars
@@ShibaMT2602
I should have clarified I'm talking about ultra processed carbs white rice, cookies, cakes, chips, etc
@@bballah9969 ohh, than you're right👍🏻🙏
You opened my eyes today! Thanks cris 🙏🏻 I will stop eating too much sugar and try cutting 🙂
I used to weight around 132kg around 3.5 years ago. lost more than 35 killograms after quiting sugar completely for around 10 months: I was on 1500 kcal a day and my diet consisted of only eggs, mushroms, meat (chicken breast), olive oil (+_ a spoon a day), broculi, calaflower, cucumber, tomato and carrot
After around 2 months some of my health conditions like random pains, skin and joint issues went away completely. During that time I wasn't sick a single time. After reaching +_94kg I was in my peak form so far when it comes to how I felt about condition of my mind and body. I had lots of energy and I wasn't sick for a long time despite being prone to sickness before... Then I started bulking again (and quit the no-sugar diet) to gain some muscle and then cutting again and so on and so forth... Currently I think that I'd like to get to around 80/85kg (currently around 97kg after recent bulk).
Yesterday started cutting again... this time around I no longer quit sugar due to the fact that I'm not in position to do that from financial perspective... I honestly think that if not for the inflation and constant price rises people's diets would be better since diet based on processed carbs like bread and pasta and even stuff like rice is more cost efficient than meat&veiges based diet... I can buy half a killogram of raw pasta for less than a dollar and have enough food for myself for a couple of days or I can spend 5$ for 0.8 killogram of chicken breast daily... well I no longer can afford to do so but if someone who's reading this comment does have that posibility then by all means I highly advice to try doing so!
Word of warning about MonkFruit. It's almost always mixed with erythritol (typically many times more erythritol than monk fruit) to give it a 1:1 ratio for replacing sugar. Erythritol has recently been linked with increased risk of blood clots and heart problems as well as nausea. Powdered stevia is also often mixed with erythritol. I always go for the liquid stevia
Thank you so much for this, it was so informative and motivating!
