  • I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard someone say they wish they had more willpower to be able to quit sugar. But here’s the thing: it’s an actual physical addiction and the food industry strives to get us hooked on sugar. So, it’s not about willpower, it’s about biochemistry. The great news is that we can reset our biochemistry and those sugar cravings and take back our health. The more you avoid sugar and refined carbohydrates (which just turn into sugar in your body) the more your body recognizes the natural sweetness in healthy foods like blueberries or even a red bell pepper.
    My guests on this episode of The Doctor’s Farmacy, Keegan Allen and Tom Hopper, have both been through the sugar struggle, and they’re here to share their inspiring stories of overcoming the addiction to discover their most vibrant health.
    Keegan is an American actor, musician, photographer, and author. He’s known for his main role as Toby Cavanaugh on the Freeform series Pretty Little Liars. Allen's passion in his younger years tended towards photography, cinematography, and other roles behind the camera. Tom is an English actor. He has appeared as Sir Percival in Merlin, Billy Bones in Black Sails, Dickon Tarly in Game of Thrones, and Luther Hargreeves in Netflix’s new show The Umbrella Academy.

    A hypertensive crisis brought me to my senses. Stopped sugar then started keto, have lost 87 pounds, and feel better at age 64 than I did through the previous 20 years.

      I have been keto for 2 months. My IBS and general health was in the gutter. I actually woke up one day feeling so terrible that I felt that I was about to have a serious problem if I didn't change. I've been keto before and it was the best I have ever felt. This time I feel way better, but I am still having issues. So I have just started on carnivore and plan to transition to the lion diet after a few weeks. My plan is to find out what foods I can and can't eat by eliminating almost all foods as per the lion diet. Once I feel confident in my weight and health issues subsiding, I will slowly introduce other foods, however there are some foods I plan to never eat again such sugars, grains and bad oils. I do like the idea of being able to eat more of a paleo approach eventually to sustain me for the rest of my life.

    It is so true. I fell off of the wagon tonight as I listened to this. I have been craving ice cream. I am allergic to milk. While at the grocery store, I spotted Daisy ice cream bars with a coffee coating. I broke down and bought one. I had a very healthy dinner...all Whole Foods. I turned this program on and the more that they talked about sugar, the more I wanted that ice cream. I broke down and got one. I sat here and ate it. Shortly after eating it, I felt a burning sensation from the inside out and I became very hot and then cold. I sat here thinking....I remember having that happen to me in the past, but it has been a very long time. I had been sugar free until tonight for 6 months. I lost 35+ pounds. As of now, I am back on the wagon. In a sick way, I am kind of glad that I did this though because I had always thought that I was having hot flashes...now I am aware that it was in fact sugar flashes. My body was having an adverse reaction to sugar. Lesson learned.

    Approaching 1 year anniversary for going 99.9% sugar free (I recognize there is hidden sugar in some foods eaten in restaurants) At age 64, it's been an amazing transformation. (the list is too long to share!) I wasn't a total slag before, but I could never conquer the "cravings" and addiction. The biggest obstacle is not what you would think. We all have access to info, but it's figuring out how to live sugar-free in a home where other members of the household eat sugary foods that is often the biggest challenge. I do crossfit 5x a week and I'm actually getting measurably stronger each month~! I feel like I could write more about the strategies but not here. Not today. If you're questioning your sugar consumption at all, it's probably time to give it a go. If you fail, get back on the bus!

Beets, peas, cukes, goat cheese, peppers, greens galore, sprouts, nuts, seeds eggs, grilled tuna/salmon or meat you like. All of this can be prepped in advance. I found grain-free wraps and tortillas for egg and tuna and veggie sandwiches. I eat high quality tasty fruit and unprocessed nuts as snacks. Apples and citrus and occasional banana with whole fat unsweetened yogurt are fast and easy. I got out of the habit of eating packaged and processed foods. I was extremely strict for the first 6 months because I started this journey right before Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas! I've made it through 2 years now and still have not eaten any cakes, pies, ice cream etc. My friends bought me a birthday cake for 65 and I blew out the candles and then watched them eat it! hahaha.

Although I will say the less sugar and fast food, I eat the better I feel. Are usually focus on making my sleep the best I can and at least getting a walk in yoga in in the morning if nothing else. My life has gotten drastically better since then.

I stay away from fruits as I don't need the fructose to cause insulin spikes. I am always full, feel great many benefits.

    I understood decades ago that I am a sugar addict. The first book on the topic that I remember reading was entitled LICK THE SUGAR HABIT. 30 years ago…?
    I participated in several different 12-step programs for food/eating and interestingly most of them saw food problems as a spiritual issue and trying to control my physical food addiction issues with prayer did nothing but waste time and increase my frustration as I gained more and more weight! I have nothing against prayer it just doesn’t work for everything in my experience…
    Then I discovered food addicts anonymous and that’s when I really started getting it. Yes, I’d already read LICK THE SUGAR HABIT but I needed the support of others like me to do what needed to be done. And it wasn’t just sugar that I had problems with.
    I learned a lot in that group. I learned that sugar has almost 300 names! I learned that flour is recognized by my body as SUGAR and that it had to go too. I also learned that I had no idea what a reasonable portion of any food was and I needed to learn about that too. I learned that eating at almost every restaurant was the kiss of death because who knew what the chef had included in the food they cooked even when I made specific requests for specific types of preparation…
    The food addicts anonymous plan was strict but clear: I eat this and don’t eat that. Period. I was able to do it successfully for 5 years and then multiple disasters hit me at once and it was all I could do to keep my head above water let alone do all the work to remain abstinent from food addiction…
    Still…
    I didn’t totally give up at that point. I just tried a bunch of things that I thought might be easier and might work as well or better.. weight watchers, Jenny Craig, Nutisystem, liquid diets, medical diets (where they supply all your allegedly healthy meals WHICH ARE ALL LOADED WITH SUGAR!!! 🤬), eating just one frozen diet dinner for breakfast with nothing else the rest of the day, Smart Ones, vegetarian (I always felt hungry eating vegetarian), vegan (I think vegans must be sadistic it’s so awful 😂) etc etc… meanwhile getting fatter and fatter and more and more unhealthy…🥲
    Fast forward decades and now it’s as if the world in general has started to catch up with what I’ve known for a long time.
    I did manage to get away from sugar and flour again quite a while ago so I’m ahead of the game in that way. Today’s tasks are to dig out general carbohydrates and limit them and maybe even eliminate them entirely eventually. I have noticed that if I consume even a tiny bit of carbs my hunger can be drastically triggered and extremely hard to resist. So I’m thinking that just dumping all carbs actually might be the easiest way for me. Craving has always been my downfall and it’d be freeing not to have to fight craving anymore…
    I’m now doing keto (imperfectly) and I’m feeling better, sleeping better now and I have more energy too. I’m not trying to eat less but I do eat less because I’m just not hungry… and an unexpected bonus is that I’m saving money on food because I don’t need to buy as much of it as before which then means I can afford the safer organic non gmo grass fed free range foods 😄❤
    And I’m losing weight and I don’t even feel like I’m trying to lose weight! Keto doesn’t seem like a diet to me for the most part…the only “diet-like” thing I do is to keep track of my daily carbs and keep them low.
    I WAS borderline diabetic a month ago and my blood pressure WAS dangerously high a month ago but not now… the physical improvements seem to be happening quickly for me 😊❤️😇
    And I follow podcasts like this one and many others that are informative too and that’s helped too.

Somedays I would look at what I had eaten during a day and wonder how I got that much sugar into my diet. My body really paid the price for sugar addiction. It’s almost like a hangover the next day, but a sugar hangover. I’m working hard to treat myself better by learning about diet, nutrition and exercise. It’s not easy, but the consequences as I age are so much worse.

We tend to forget that results don't show up overnight; the work that needs to get done prior to that takes time. And the realization of it will also take some time.
    I also think a lot about the movie "Idiocracy" a dramedy almost turning into a prophecy regarding the use of sodas as a preferred drink over water - thinking about Mountain Dew used instead of water to "water" crops, amongst other things.

Is it OK to eat something like that (compared to most fast food that's processed and laden with saturated fat) or would you recommend avoiding them altogether?

    Sugary stuff only keep you hungry. Eating a dessert and thinking that you had a meal is like drinking a coffee and thinking that that will replace sleep.

    It is not about will power, it is all about chemistry! To curb sugar cravings: put 1/2 tsp of L-glutamine powder under your tongue and let melt (sells on amazon).
    Most ppl have Candida overgrowth and don't even know it. Candida feeds on sugar, it communicates with the brain via molecular pathways, saying: I am hungry now, give me some sugar! And so we feel a sugar craving (sugar, candy, ice cream, dairy, alcohol, chocolate, fruit, grains: bread, pizza, pasta, desserts).
    You have 2 choices: temporary relieve using L-glutamine powder or permanent relieve by decimating the numbers of Candida units which you do by water fast.
    I did 7 day water fast (no food, only water), which started by 3 days cutting down on foods, then the 7 days only water, and then 4 days refeeding. The refeeding phase is very important to do it right so it doesn't kill you. You need to start eating very slowly (1/2 cup broth with veggies should take 30 minutes to chew and finish), small quantities cooked veggies, heavier food (eggs, meat, fish on day 3). You really should read up on the whole process to do it right so you don't harm yourself. I watched many videos and read many blogs. I would say the refeeding phase is the most difficult, I wanted to eat everything and a lot of it, I could have eaten half the fridge! If you do, you will kill yourself.
    After the fast is over, do Paleo or Keto diet to avoid carbs. You can still have yogurt (coconut), chocolate (home made with stevia sweetener), bread/pizza/pasta made from coconut and almond flours.

    It’s also hard to know what to do about the food that the schools give the kids. Even if I pack the kids lunch a lot of times they will still choose to eat the crap at school. And I’ve definitely talked with the teachers about not giving them candy and I’ll send a different snacks for them but yet they still come home with candy wrappers in their backpacks. It’s ridiculous.

    As I sit here at 302 lbs a nurse I am so upset bc we tell people to eat this way. I started 2 weeks ago keto I was shocked how veggies even have carbs. I stood in grocery in tears bc I just didnt know what to eat. For life I diet and ate "healthy" I though feeling like weak loser bc I couldn't lose weight and all along it's been food. Thank you for sharing. I am still confused but I am aware sugar is hinden everywhere.

      I honestly believe keto is NOT good for you. All the animal products are terrible for you. Try eating whole food plant based. Read up on Drs Esselstyn, McDougal and Fuhrman. Carbs, whole food carbs. are not bad. They are the basis of a healthy diet. You can do this. I did and I'm never going back. Plus you can eat quite a lot of food because the caloric density in plant foods is so much lower than animal products.

      When I stalled out after 6 months of keto and 60 lbs down I gave up all the keto treats and ate more fat , it got me started again. Unfortunately the holidays arrived and I did more keto treats. Not the way to go all those nut butters and nuts in excess. Stick with high fat MEAT AND EGGS and small amounts of whole vegetables and berries.

    Only sugar intake I have is sweet tea and what I get in carbs, never liked candy, I could probably drop the sugar in the tea but unsweetened tea doesn't taste too good 😅 I drink a lot of water, fruit juice and protein shakes for breakfast when I don't have time to eat. Recently was diagnosed with high BP so working on changing my diet and started walking and hardly eat fast food unless it's chicken.

      @thefitpoet2833 3 года назад

      I would stay away from sugar alcohols, as they cause digestive issues for a lot of people (bloating, gas, diarrhea). Opt for monkfruit sweetener or allulose if you need a sweetener. There is no aftertaste with those either and you can use them as you would sugar. “Wholesome Yum” has a monkfruit allulose granulated sugar blend that works great for me.

    I used to be a sugar addict. I guess I still am but I manage it now. I became prediabetic and one day I didn’t recognize myself in a photo someone sent me. I have really bad legs from the army and I cannot be physically active as I once was. I started intermittent fasting and cutting the sugar. So far 3 months I’m 25 pounds down. Intermittent fasting is fairly easy. Avoiding sugar is always gnawing at the back of my brain. It’s a real addiction. I started eating less and less. Before I would eat an entire bag of chocolate covered pretzels in one day. Now I may have a handful in a week but I TRY to stay away from the sweets and sugar and definitely no sugary drinks like soda. I feel sugar will always be the ghost that follows me. Every day it’s hard to say no to sugar but I want to be healthy for my Son who has special needs and be there for him when he is older. My girlfriend was not a fan of my new choice but when she saw the results she hopped on board. It’s a lot easier when you have someone to support you and you can do the same for them. Good luck to everyone trying to kick sugar. One day at a time!

    • @jayleon2894
      @jayleon2894 Год назад

      Hi Helena. As a former childhood to young adult alcoholic, it's likely sugar is helping you as a crutch to replace the alcohol addiction of which you are freeing yourself from. If it were me I would focus on retraining my nervous system through things meditation, sound healing, breathing exercises to engage the vagus nerve, etc; while increasing my fat and protein intake to be the majority of my meals, animal foods would give the largest satiety while being the most bioavailable such as beef, eggs, butter, plain yogurt. Implementing those will help make you much stronger and eating protein and fatty meals and snacks (especially before going out into social situations) will help you naturally detox while decreasing your sugar urges in time and making it easier vs being a struggle. In time you will find you consume less sugar naturally and in time your resilience even when tempted will become stronger. The key to success will be not show up hungry (you have already filled up on animal fat and protein) and are self regulating yourself through soothing stress management. I always have stocked in my car and home ready to go pork rinds, jerky, coconut oil. And the stress management tools tuning forks, breathing exercises and if somewhere I can't deploy like driving, I pull off to a nearby spot and walk. If tense with someone I bring an image to mind to help me relax, slow my breathing and remind myself I don't need to respond or give an answer now and find a way to gracefully exit even if it's a "I'll consider that" or I need a think on that". Much love and healing to you!💗

      Eat fat oh, plenty of healthy fat, and you will hardly miss the sugar. The fat is what your body really wants. They made all the food low fat and in order to make up for it they added tons of sugar. Eat vegetables loaded with plenty of olive oil and nice spices. Have a bulletproof coffee every morning with a tablespoon of coconut oil on a tablespoon of butter in it, grass-fed butter. You will be absolutely amazed at how long you can go on that fuel and you will quickly get over your desire for carbs and sugar. You can do it.

    • @debrasue2793
      @debrasue2793 4 года назад +1

      idk about other people but i'm absolutely convinced it's a hard yes. you have to treat it like the drug it is, and expel it completely from your life. and then you have to dig in and stay focused on the light at the end of the tunnel because the next few weeks to few months (everyone is different) are going to S U C K. the withdrawal process is absolutely abyssmal, at least it is for me. to this day i still have crippling fiending episodes if i see some shit that i used to consume by the truckload and it can take me upwards of an hour of raw focus to power through that. i ragewatch stuff like this when this happens because the spite i feel for a society that allows this kind of thing to happen is sometimes enough to get me by. i'm about a month out from my most recent breakdown and i'm sitting on the couch, focusing only on NOT breaking down and going to the store. reciting in my head that once this fucking sickness passes out of my head in an hour or so, i'll feel functional again. the longer you go without, the less often it happens. it fucking sucks and most people won't understand, but you have to do whatever it takes, even if it means sitting on the couch ragewatching tom hopper for an hour every other day lol. sometimes a nap also helps get through the worst of it. you also have to be real with your friends and family and make sure they aren't putting shit in front of you, because they will. you have to make sure they know you're being dead-serious. and if they aren't on-board and aren't giving you the amount of patience you need, you might have to stop seeing them for a while. nothing about this is easy, you have to know that up front, but i think that knowledge is essential, because you have to adequately prepare for the actual difficulty of the sugar purge or you will fail. best of luck
