@Violett Fem ok gotcha. Sound good I'll give it a chance. Thanks. Sugar hasnt been a problem for me so i have no advice i just fought the sugar cravings and they went away
@Violett Fem what about healthy sugar then? I know keto keep saying it’s all the same but that is adamantly not true, eating fruits is certainly a million times healthier than processed sweets. And might actually satisfy the cravings of whatever the body is trying to get in the first place, whatever that is in fruit. I highly doubt it’s an energy craving.
@Violett Fem increasing protein apparently reduces sugar cravings. I do have to say I have zero need for chocolate after downing a pure whey protein shake, whereas I usually do finish a meal with some.
My wife overheard you on this video and commented "your body needs sugar dude!" She is gaining weight at an astronomical rate! She also has many other unlucky problems. I have been on a keto diet for almost a year and I feel great although it does get a little boring and mundane when you have to do it by your self. Kudos to all you lucky ones that have your partner on board with you eating plan.
My partner makes comments like this it's highly annoying Because I know your body doesn't your body will naturally make glucose but we don't need added sugar for anything.. My partner craves sugar constantly and it's because he eats so much of it..🥴
Eliminating carbs (especially whole grains) and dramatically increasing my salt intake, LOWERED my blood pressure. Unsurprisingly, this was the complete opposite of my doctor's advice...
Vindication, I have always added salt to my food to the point of concerning friends and family. Meanwhile we were all ramming carbs into our bodies thinking nothing of it. We were fooled into being paranoid over the wrong nutrients.
This is literally me…I was obliviously addicted to sugar. Id have a coffee (with sugar & cream) along with pan de dulce or a cookie as a “light breakfast “ I literally gained 10 lbs by doing this, this has definitely opened my eyes. Thank you for your content!
My grama was a diabetic and complaining about headaches before she died. She tied a headband tightly on her head for relief. I wish I knew this information about the inflammation caused by sugar so to help her. She was on insulin which is glucose. And, glucose is sugar. They both cause neuropathy in the feet.
It is criminal that some of us have lived our entire lives being given erroneous nutritional information. And the damage it has done. It will forever sting my soul.
My only regret is not finding keto decades ago! Thank you, Dr. B and Neisha for all your help!! Im 63 and down 100 pounds. Getting closer to ketovore too!
I use to be so addicted sugar, I use to just sit there and eat 6 pks. of "Now and Later" candy on a regular basis... Snickers, cookies 🍪 it's like I just couldn't get enough of the stuff. Been doing keto for over a year now though.
I commend you i am exactly the same, I must have been the only adult who on the way to work would stop and buy candy! I have gotten better but it's been hard, still not completely keto yet.
@@rdyplyr2141 you'll get there! My niece does keto only 4 days a week and it's working for her. Not sure how, cause it takes about three days to get back into ketosis. So I just think it depends on the person.
If you get migraines especially sugar cravings can be a sign of needing salt electrolyte. Your brain cant get the voltage energy it needs and you crave sugar for quick energy but it doesnt help. Depends on person and genes though, i learned this from stanton migraine protocol
It's amazing how all this knowledge is known BUT that BIG FOOD can influence law and public policy that supports an unhealthy diet. Thank you Dr. Berry for your tireless work in exposing the dangers of a high carb diet.
I can personally attest to the effect that sugar has on my depression and anxiety. After eating only meat and eggs for the last 4 months I've never had so much relief of my symptoms. Even deviating a little for a treat seems to cause me to spiral into major depressive episode.
Sharing on Minds social media Thank you !!!! Sugar makes me sick !!! It gives me bladder infections and kidney infections and overgrowth of bacteria and yeast infections and I can only eat a small piece of chocolate every few weeks! But I am healthy and loving the keto and carnivore diet
I stopped eating sugar last year December then went on a keto lifestyle. Lost over 80lbs. I’m doing a 7 day water fast right now watching your video. My body is fat adapted and ready for any intermittent or prolonged fast.
Keep.up the fast as I'm in the same boat and a few crystals of Pink Himalayan salt under the tongue and let it dissolve slowly will crush hunger cravings.
@@MrLeebooher wow first I’ve heard of this tip. Thanks a lot. I usually just do a light pinch of salt in a cup of water. I just finished a 168hr fast 9 hours ago. I feel great. Broke my fast with some bone broth then 2 hours later, ate some cucumber, tomato & a small chicken leg.
My body, weight, and satiety are so very healthy now that I cut back to 20 or fewer grams of carbohydrates per day, gluten-free, and seed-oil-free eating.
I feel so much better being on keto/carnivore. My energy levels are higher, I can breathe better and I sleep better too. I been trying to get my brother who's a truck driver to get on keto, but it is hard when the only place he can go to is the Flying J.
I had my first real cheat meal since January yesterday (pre-planned), a delicious polenta breakfast entree. I felt crazy bloated, like the food was filling me all the way up to my shoulders! Maybe I won't have a whole cheat meal in the future.
There's a woman on YT I listened to about two hours ago who explained in a 57 second video that just one "cheat" meal can take the body four days to recover from.
@Jay Gordon That’s excellent! Good job. It’s amazing what the doctors don’t know. I’m off all my meds etc.All due to my low carb diet. Fat is good for you as long as you don’t combine it with sugar or refined carbs. Enjoy
I told my mother when I was 7 years old, that I felt like I was addicted to sugar. I think this is our "hereditary" high cholesterol - we learned to eat a lot of sugar......
I cut my carbs and sugars a few months ago. I have started to walk every day and some weight lifting every other day. I start my mornings with some AC in water and wait until about 2PM to eat my meal, I eat one or sometimes two meals a day. this routine has worked great for me! I have lost over 30 lbs and BP has lowered so I could under doctors agreement cut my Meds. I still like sugar but I have way less than I used to. I also like my Jack Daniels and other Alcoholic brews but also cut them from every day to just a little on Weekends. I am 67 and I am sure I will live much longer since I started this lifestyle.
This advice is life changing. It's hard to put the brakes on sugar intake, especially when you are working so hard and it seems to be the only thing getting you through your day. It's well worth it. I dropped 30 kg in less than a year, still enjoy the odd treat and now truly appreciate how things taste more than ever.
Joining the Carni/Ketovoire Tribe coming in with all the issues. Admitted last night I am a sugar addict. Everything I have learned last week is so liberating. Stopped sodas a few weeks ago. Coffee a couple weeks ago and have dropped carbs to 25% if not less than historical intake. Went to a restaurant today, drank water and had a meat omelette. One day at a time, today was a win!
Again, you drop another truth bomb, that so many people are sadly in denial about. Thanks Dr.Berry for the sharing the reality of what sugars impact on the human body causes. Much respect from Vancouver Canada 🇨🇦
Staring keto past few days while having a huge gout attack! Never have I wanted to amputate my own appendage to get rid of the pain than now. But it’s getting better and I think I can equate this attack with the consumption of a couple beers daily, carbs, and d hydration. I would turn my head and it sounded like a bunch of marbles grinding around. But since this gout attack I drink about a gallon a day now. No more marbles and quit drinking alcohol too. So on my way to better health! Thanks dr. Ken Berry
@@dianacalvillo4167 gout attack is the crystals that form the gout in the joint start hurting or moving and are therefore very painful. The crystals formations are rather pointy.
Thank you Dr Berry, because of my success so far on the phd, I have been able to convince a daughter (who has/had nafld) and one of my three sisters to eat this way as well. Both are seeing positive results as well!
Just starting keto today! Excited to be starting. I’m a truck driver so it’ll be interesting to see how I have to do things a little different to stick to the lifestyle but I’ve prepared! I have many of these 13 unlucky things and tired of feeling like crap! Happy that I found your videos and ready to start living life comfortably again and instead of in so much pain and discomfort constantly. I’m only 24 and should not feel the way I do! Thank you for your videos!
@@lorissabennett6124 You are smart and fortunate to have found this way of eating sooner rather than later. My daughter is 21 and vegan, and I can only hope she figures it out. In the meantime, I keep my mouth shut.
I'm currently trying to get back on keto.. my bones are aching right now because of what I'm eating.. I had lost so much weight eating low carb.. at one point dropping a pound a day! Oh.. I wish I had started already!
My doctors told me for high triglycerides and my skin condition to “stop eating chicken” and later “take steroids”. Never anything about cutting out carbs and sugars.
Thank you all the way from 🇿🇦 I've been on this new lifestyle change for 4 months and I'm feeling GREAT 👍🏼 I have more energy ⚡ I've lost weight 🚶🏼♀️and I'm sleeping better 👍🏼 never to late to learn amazing new things.. I post all my progress and your videos on to friends if only one joins I'll be happy.. 👍🏼Thank you very much 😍😎
I quit Sugar and went organic as well as IF Doing a good 3 day fast 2X a month and in my 50's feel better now than 20+ years ago. Between YOU Dr. And Jason Fung it has saved my life. Quantity of life never outweighs QUALITY of life ! Thank you Doc !
Been sugar free for over a year now. My migraine headaches have dramatically decreased, I'd say by at least 90%! My blood pressure has also decreased, I'm no longer on medication. And yes ill have sweets now and then but my body quickly responds! My heart will pound in my chest, I'll have low energy and in the following days my joints will hurt. I feel best off sugar!!
Love your content, been following you for past few years. My mom healed herself from diabetes and I found out the cause of my major/severe migraines and inflammation through keto/carnivore lifestyle! Thank you for all you do!
A year on keto reversed my fatty liver/NASH. I have also lost 65 pounds and have been able to seriously improve my fitness and stamina through exercise. I eat no sugar other than that which occurs naturally in my vegetables and am this way able to keep my carb consumption below 20 grams per day. Eliminating carbs has saved my life and I'll never go back to a high carb diet. Ever.
I’ve been on carnivore for 6 weeks now. It has been tough breaking the sugar addiction, to be sure. I still get tempted like for example when I saw a pizza ad on tv I thought it would be nice. But overall, given all the benefits of the carnivore WOE, I’d say for certain I would not be in a hurry to return to the old WOE. Carbohydrates are so ubiquitous in western culture, it’s little wonder they’re such a hard habit to break.
I'm so excited that I found you on here. I have hypothyroidism so I want to look at your video's on that also. Thanks for really opening my eye's to how serious this is. I want to be healthy. If I'm in good health then I can be happy. Being over weight has brought on SO MANY other problems. I have knee pain which makes it hard to get in those long walks I love. Shortness of breath. I gotta start with my weight. Thank You Dr Ken
Thank you for all your videos Dr. Berry and Neisha...It all makes sense now. I was so confused at what was going on or what to do. I chose to try the Keto diet after some blood tests that were shocking...Already knew about the Hashimotos, but NOT the HBA1C 6.1. NASH and CKD...One month in, I am 15 pounds down and feeling so much better. Have eliminated the omeprazole as my gut is so much better. Bless you both :)
I thought I was on a low sugar diet. When I started using Cronometer and added everything I ate, it showed I had consumed aprox double the amount of sugar every day. For me, it should be 36g per day, I had 70g in a day, and was so surprised.
Dr. 2 Dr. - you completely forgot cholelithiasis! Definitely add that in to the next version of what you can get, or perhaps do a separate video on this topic all together :)
Greetings from Australia. I was going to ask a question about other 'sugars', then your advice on how to find your other videos answered them for me. I appreciate your practical well-rounded advice.
Thanks Dr Berry! Was just feeling the urge to dip into my kids leftover Halloween candy but watched this instead. I don’t need it and neither do they, so I tossed it out! Also four days sober and taking a social media break. Time to get all the junk out of my life.
Dr. Berry Could you please do a more in-depth video on gout. My husband suffers from it! We started Keto in September and he is down 32 pounds! However, a week ago he got a gout flare up for the first time in His knuckle joint. We were shocked since He has been Very strict on the Keto! We do eat quite a lot of steak, and ground beef on the diet!
Dr. Berry, could you tell me what the ideal diet for children would be?? I have a 6½ year old son & I don't allow him to consume processed foods, refined sugars, or grains while limiting conventional dairy as well; I currently have him on a whole foods diet which consists primarily of a wide variety of healthy oils, meats, nuts/seeds, legumes, leafy greens, fruits, & vegetables. I tend to let him eat as much fruit & nuts/seeds as he wants in between meals & he eats pretty much whatever my wife & I eat for mealtime. My wife & I personally follow a low carb/slow carb diet, sometimes switching to keto for awhile; we also typically only eat 2 meals per day, fasting after 5pm until the next morning when we break our fast. We don't place any other restrictions on our son's diet other than what I mentioned above & we also don't allow him to eat within 2 hours of bedtime. So basically he gets to eat as much as he wants, as often as he wants, as long as it's a whole food or a product that's been minimally processed using only whole food sourced ingredients. I really feel like we're doing the right thing with him but sometimes I doubt myself because so many of our relatives/friends are very judgmental & adamantly opposed to what we're doing & it's very discouraging. Everybody can see how much better off we are as a family...we're way happier & healthier, especially our son as he used to be sick literally all the time when we were still on the Standard American Diet; he used to drink half a gallon of chocolate milk a day, eat sugary snacks, & processed junk from restaurants.....consequently he was also constantly anemic, or in the hospital with breathing problems, on tons of antibiotics, steroids, inhalers, nebulizer treatments, various OTC meds such as antacids & even laxatives/stool softeners. He's an extremely healthy boy these days, but definitely not the pudgy little hoss he used to be & I think that's what concerns people the most. We're not restricting his caloric intake in any way to make him lose weight, I feel that his body is simply leveling out as he gets healthier & slimming down seems to be a natural part of that process. The fact is, he no longer takes ANY pharmaceuticals & he has rarely even gotten a sniffle for over 2 years now since we started this new lifestyle journey. Everybody we know ignorantly believes that our son must've just grown out of his illness & as far as our weight loss goes, we must simply be starving ourselves lol. They refuse to believe that a healthy diet is all it takes to achieve optimal health...as if it sounds too simple & naive. But I am certain that it was the change of diet & lifestyle habits that made all the difference. We occasionally still have cheat days, mainly on holidays & the difference in how the junk food makes us feel vs. the whole foods is like night & day. We'll never live like that again! Anyways Doc, I just need some reassurance that I'm doing the right thing with my child's diet or even a redirection if there's still something I'm doing wrong. I would greatly appreciate a response from you Dr. Berry. Thanks for everything you do!
All bcuz i love a good cup of coffee!! I don't use granulated sugar in my coffee but I must have decadent creamer (various flavors) and usually just one splenda to boost the sweetness of the creamer also I love green tea and lemon and I know it's good for me so I try to drink tea regularly, but it cannot be bland and tea with splenda for me is terrible so for tea I normally will use sugar or honey to enjoy it. Now lately I decided not to use sugar at all and I also set aside the non caloric sweeteners and replaced these with organic honey thinking this was altogether better!! But actually the "side effects" of honey has turned out to be worst for me than sugar after just one month!! My body has been retaining water, my knees have been hurting and stiff, I've been craving the honey and creamer like a drug addict!! Also craving sweets in an unusual way, I'd been getting sleepy at odd hours of the day, hard to focus, gained weight in a short period of time; fat but mostly water retention and excessive bloating!! God has answered my prayer thru this diagnosis and a few others like it just today!! I don't take any medications so I was confused with what was happening to me; why am I swelling up, why am I so hungry, why do i have trouble focusing and why am I getting sleepy when I have things to do??!!!! I thank God I've discovered this before contracting the serious diseases u mentioned Dr Berry, wow and i intended to go on a juice regimen for a month but now i will juice but i'm leaving out the fruit!! I know my health will improve now.
Hi , is Erythritol is also bad . I just got informd that I have cirrhosis liver ( not alchohol) I use to many prescribes medication for my conditions .
👍 I like sugar. 🧁 Avoided it for many years to save my teeth but the artificial sweeteners gave me really bad headaches. I really don't care anymore. I went 10 years without eating anything chocolate. I decided I'd rather just eat what I want and not listen to people anymore. But, I like listening to you and appreciate the information. I like learning new things and I do take it into account.
Is it possible to gain weight after eating a little sugar item overnight?? I am on keto and haveolose 20 lbs.but I ate sweet potatoes with brown swerve and I've gained 2 lbs!! I am nearly 72, have 85 lbs to loose struggled all my life with weight, been slim only 4 times in my adult life; this struggle is so hard and discouraging. Thanks for your great videos.
Dr Berry if sugar causes weight gain then explain Freelee,FullyrawKhristina,and Happy Healthy Vegan,all eat tons of natural sugar,non have any of the issues you've listed.
I would include gallstones, too. Didn’t know I had any until I finally “felt” them and got an ultrasound and lo and behold there they were. ☹️👎🏻 😒🗿🗿🗿 Since eating Ketovore with higher fat, it flushes out the gallbladder and I haven’t had any pain since...PTL. Thanks Dr. B! Wish that I knew of you 20 years ago when the sugar shizz show started in my bod. Have a great rest of the week! Christine in sunny CO ☀️
My brother was diagnosed with Parkinson's late in 2007, and is now, at the age of 64, in the very advanced stages of it. He suffers from severe migraines, has done so for decades (he also has had multiple closed head injuries from various odd incidences in his life). Unfortunately, though she's an excellent caregiver otherwise, his wife will not make dietary changes that would eliminate starches, grains and sugars, because my brother "absolutely loves" all things sugary, sweet, heavy in pastas and breading, etc., etc. She and I are not at all close, so there's no way I can convince her that a dietary change would benefit them both. Neither of them are overweight, but again, the migraines, the Park's, her thyroid issues (she had to have most of it removed decades ago, before I ever knew her)---I wish I could get it through to her, to them, that changing their way of eating to keto, carnivore, or ketovore would make such a huge difference, but again, I have to keep my mouth shut.
*I often have cold hands and feet, even packed on with clothes. Now when I cut the carbs and replace them with healthy fat, I feel much warmer...* *Now let’s put sugar to blame yeah*
Dr Berry you da best! Thanks to your videos I knew things that are significantly changing my relation and my family's relation with food! Hugs from Brazil ❤🇧🇷
As much as I love your informative videos!!!! I'm so confuse about drinking fruit juices and eating grains since most of other medical sources or nutritionist has been recommend against? Who should we trust??????

Coffee a couple weeks ago and have dropped carbs to 25% if not less than historical intake. Went to a restaurant today, drank water and had a meat omelette. One day at a time, today was a win!
Dr. Berry thank you for continuing to tell people. More and more people are realizing that they need to decrease carbohydrates.
Again, you drop another truth bomb, that so many people are sadly in denial about. Thanks Dr.Berry for the sharing the reality of what sugars impact on the human body causes. Much respect from Vancouver Canada 🇨🇦
Eating too much sugar depletes the essential minerals in the cells
brains cells too I think ;)
Went keto 2 years ago, my depression is gone and so is hubby's gout. No more migraines. Thanks Dr. Berry. Keep up this fight!!!
Staring keto past few days while having a huge gout attack! Never have I wanted to amputate my own appendage to get rid of the pain than now. But it’s getting better and I think I can equate this attack with the consumption of a couple beers daily, carbs, and d hydration. I would turn my head and it sounded like a bunch of marbles grinding around. But since this gout attack I drink about a gallon a day now. No more marbles and quit drinking alcohol too. So on my way to better health! Thanks dr. Ken Berry
Ya, at first the body is going to mobilize the gout crystals as they start breaking up for the body to get rid of. Hang in there mate.
what is gout attack?
@@dianacalvillo4167 gout attack is the crystals that form the gout in the joint start hurting or moving and are therefore very painful. The crystals formations are rather pointy.
Thank you Dr Berry, because of my success so far on the phd, I have been able to convince a daughter (who has/had nafld) and one of my three sisters to eat this way as well. Both are seeing positive results as well!
Just starting keto today! Excited to be starting. I’m a truck driver so it’ll be interesting to see how I have to do things a little different to stick to the lifestyle but I’ve prepared! I have many of these 13 unlucky things and tired of feeling like crap! Happy that I found your videos and ready to start living life comfortably again and instead of in so much pain and discomfort constantly. I’m only 24 and should not feel the way I do! Thank you for your videos!
Good luck!
Thank you! So far so good! I’m feeling great! And keeping on track!
@@lorissabennett6124 You are smart and fortunate to have found this way of eating sooner rather than later. My daughter is 21 and vegan, and I can only hope she figures it out. In the meantime, I keep my mouth shut.
I'm currently trying to get back on keto.. my bones are aching right now because of what I'm eating.. I had lost so much weight eating low carb.. at one point dropping a pound a day! Oh.. I wish I had started already!
Awe, you are there my friend.. you are hear and calling yourself out on it. . That is what Legends are made of. . #StayLegendary my RUclips friend 💯 ❤
My doctors told me for high triglycerides and my skin condition to “stop eating chicken” and later “take steroids”. Never anything about cutting out carbs and sugars.
Thank you all the way from 🇿🇦 I've been on this new lifestyle change for 4 months and I'm feeling GREAT 👍🏼 I have more energy ⚡ I've lost weight 🚶🏼♀️and I'm sleeping better 👍🏼 never to late to learn amazing new things.. I post all my progress and your videos on to friends if only one joins I'll be happy.. 👍🏼Thank you very much 😍😎
Be wary of sugar from corn syrup. I discovered that french vanilla creamers have a load of corn syrup.
And it has palm oil, which raises your cholesterol and LDL.
I use lots of vanilla creamers. No wonder I have non alcoholic fatty liver too.
I quit Sugar and went organic as well as IF Doing a good 3 day fast 2X a month and in my 50's feel better now than 20+ years ago. Between YOU Dr. And Jason Fung it has saved my life. Quantity of life never outweighs QUALITY of life ! Thank you Doc !
Yes sugar sugar cravings! I quit smoking cold turkey but giving up sweets is hard!
When prediabetic suffered yeast infections since keto/ carnivore none
Yeast feeds on sugar/glucose
Love this video! I send it to my 22 year old son. Made him think about the amount of sugar he eats & drinks. Thank you Doc you opened up his eyes.
Been sugar free for over a year now. My migraine headaches have dramatically decreased, I'd say by at least 90%! My blood pressure has also decreased, I'm no longer on medication. And yes ill have sweets now and then but my body quickly responds! My heart will pound in my chest, I'll have low energy and in the following days my joints will hurt. I feel best off sugar!!
Thank you so much. My husband and I are on the road to better health!
Love your content, been following you for past few years. My mom healed herself from diabetes and I found out the cause of my major/severe migraines and inflammation through keto/carnivore lifestyle! Thank you for all you do!
Thank you Dr Berry, love your videos and I am following some of your teachings. I am a Type 2 Diabetic and have lost 20lbs so far. Thank you.
I can vouch for the headache thing! Mine are tension type bootstrap headaches but have greatly diminished on keto.
Excellent! Shared on my Facebook page.
A year on keto reversed my fatty liver/NASH. I have also lost 65 pounds and have been able to seriously improve my fitness and stamina through exercise. I eat no sugar other than that which occurs naturally in my vegetables and am this way able to keep my carb consumption below 20 grams per day. Eliminating carbs has saved my life and I'll never go back to a high carb diet. Ever.
I’ve been on carnivore for 6 weeks now. It has been tough breaking the sugar addiction, to be sure. I still get tempted like for example when I saw a pizza ad on tv I thought it would be nice. But overall, given all the benefits of the carnivore WOE, I’d say for certain I would not be in a hurry to return to the old WOE. Carbohydrates are so ubiquitous in western culture, it’s little wonder they’re such a hard habit to break.
I'm so excited that I found you on here. I have hypothyroidism so I want to look at your video's on that also. Thanks for really opening my eye's to how serious this is. I want to be healthy. If I'm in good health then I can be happy. Being over weight has brought on SO MANY other problems. I have knee pain which makes it hard to get in those long walks I love. Shortness of breath. I gotta start with my weight. Thank You Dr Ken
Thank you dr. Berry ylu helped me a lot with all your perfect videos ❤ good job
You are now our respected doctor
Thank you for all your videos Dr. Berry and Neisha...It all makes sense now. I was so confused at what was going on or what to do. I chose to try the Keto diet after some blood tests that were shocking...Already knew about the Hashimotos, but NOT the HBA1C 6.1. NASH and CKD...One month in, I am 15 pounds down and feeling so much better. Have eliminated the omeprazole as my gut is so much better. Bless you both :)
I thought I was on a low sugar diet. When I started using Cronometer and added everything I ate, it showed I had consumed aprox double the amount of sugar every day.
For me, it should be 36g per day, I had 70g in a day, and was so surprised.
My mom always said that sugar was bad. Fast food ads and commercials that promote sugar foods like cereal have taught us how to eat wrong.
No wonder TV is considered a vast wasteland.
Dr. 2 Dr. - you completely forgot cholelithiasis! Definitely add that in to the next version of what you can get, or perhaps do a separate video on this topic all together :)
Greetings from Australia. I was going to ask a question about other 'sugars', then your advice on how to find your other videos answered them for me. I appreciate your practical well-rounded advice.
Thanks dr.berry for explaining such a crucial topic in great detail...sugar is a dangerous addiction..thanks once again👍
Thanks Dr Berry! Was just feeling the urge to dip into my kids leftover Halloween candy but watched this instead. I don’t need it and neither do they, so I tossed it out! Also four days sober and taking a social media break. Time to get all the junk out of my life.
Don't you just love it when you're watching such quality video and a breakfast cereal add comes up!? 😏 Dr. Berry you Rock.
Watched 13 times now
Thank you!!!
Love your videos Dr Berry… They are so helpful… thank you so much!
Dr Berry You are the best the most informative, trustworthy Md on web Thanks a million 😊
You and your wife are a true blessing to us. We love you'all 💖✨
I just started carnivore again, can't wait to feel so Good!
Dr. Berry, I've heard Dr. Paul Saladino talk about eating some honey every day. In your opinion, is there a difference between honey and other sugars?
I am full blown type 2 diabetic and 70 lbs overweight. I can’t handle eating any bread or potatoes or sugar
Does all of these only apply to sugar (fructose & sucrose) or also starch?
Dr. Berry Could you please do a more in-depth video on gout. My husband suffers from it!
We started Keto in September and he is down 32 pounds! However, a week ago he got a gout flare up for the first time in
His knuckle joint. We were shocked since He has been Very strict on the Keto! We do eat quite a lot of steak, and ground beef on the diet!
Thanks Always Much Love ❤❤❤❤
I stopped using sugar in my morning coffee and creamer and the swelling in my feet shrank.
I heard creamer causes kidney stones
Try heavy cream or butter, yummy
Dr berry and neisha are angels
Dr. Berry, could you tell me what the ideal diet for children would be??
I have a 6½ year old son & I don't allow him to consume processed foods, refined sugars, or grains while limiting conventional dairy as well; I currently have him on a whole foods diet which consists primarily of a wide variety of healthy oils, meats, nuts/seeds, legumes, leafy greens, fruits, & vegetables. I tend to let him eat as much fruit & nuts/seeds as he wants in between meals & he eats pretty much whatever my wife & I eat for mealtime. My wife & I personally follow a low carb/slow carb diet, sometimes switching to keto for awhile; we also typically only eat 2 meals per day, fasting after 5pm until the next morning when we break our fast. We don't place any other restrictions on our son's diet other than what I mentioned above & we also don't allow him to eat within 2 hours of bedtime. So basically he gets to eat as much as he wants, as often as he wants, as long as it's a whole food or a product that's been minimally processed using only whole food sourced ingredients. I really feel like we're doing the right thing with him but sometimes I doubt myself because so many of our relatives/friends are very judgmental & adamantly opposed to what we're doing & it's very discouraging. Everybody can see how much better off we are as a family...we're way happier & healthier, especially our son as he used to be sick literally all the time when we were still on the Standard American Diet; he used to drink half a gallon of chocolate milk a day, eat sugary snacks, & processed junk from restaurants.....consequently he was also constantly anemic, or in the hospital with breathing problems, on tons of antibiotics, steroids, inhalers, nebulizer treatments, various OTC meds such as antacids & even laxatives/stool softeners. He's an extremely healthy boy these days, but definitely not the pudgy little hoss he used to be & I think that's what concerns people the most. We're not restricting his caloric intake in any way to make him lose weight, I feel that his body is simply leveling out as he gets healthier & slimming down seems to be a natural part of that process. The fact is, he no longer takes ANY pharmaceuticals & he has rarely even gotten a sniffle for over 2 years now since we started this new lifestyle journey. Everybody we know ignorantly believes that our son must've just grown out of his illness & as far as our weight loss goes, we must simply be starving ourselves lol. They refuse to believe that a healthy diet is all it takes to achieve optimal health...as if it sounds too simple & naive. But I am certain that it was the change of diet & lifestyle habits that made all the difference. We occasionally still have cheat days, mainly on holidays & the difference in how the junk food makes us feel vs. the whole foods is like night & day. We'll never live like that again!
Anyways Doc, I just need some reassurance that I'm doing the right thing with my child's diet or even a redirection if there's still something I'm doing wrong. I would greatly appreciate a response from you Dr. Berry. Thanks for everything you do!
What do you think about Donut chain Commercial on the radio, and on religious stations.
Thank you for the great information! Shared on my facebook.
What about those of us with higher fasting bg due to adaptive glucose sparing from being on low carb long term?
All bcuz i love a good cup of coffee!! I don't use granulated sugar in my coffee but I must have decadent creamer (various flavors) and usually just one splenda to boost the sweetness of the creamer also I love green tea and lemon and I know it's good for me so I try to drink tea regularly, but it cannot be bland and tea with splenda for me is terrible so for tea I normally will use sugar or honey to enjoy it. Now lately I decided not to use sugar at all and I also set aside the non caloric sweeteners and replaced these with organic honey thinking this was altogether better!! But actually the "side effects" of honey has turned out to be worst for me than sugar after just one month!! My body has been retaining water, my knees have been hurting and stiff, I've been craving the honey and creamer like a drug addict!! Also craving sweets in an unusual way, I'd been getting sleepy at odd hours of the day, hard to focus, gained weight in a short period of time; fat but mostly water retention and excessive bloating!! God has answered my prayer thru this diagnosis and a few others like it just today!! I don't take any medications so I was confused with what was happening to me; why am I swelling up, why am I so hungry, why do i have trouble focusing and why am I getting sleepy when I have things to do??!!!! I thank God I've discovered this before contracting the serious diseases u mentioned Dr Berry, wow and i intended to go on a juice regimen for a month but now i will juice but i'm leaving out the fruit!! I know my health will improve now.
What about Aspartame? Why do companies say 0 sugar if they're still using different types of sugar? That's BS
Does hard cider have fructose ? Even if it’s dry?
Hi , is Erythritol is also bad . I just got informd that I have cirrhosis liver ( not alchohol) I use to many prescribes medication for my conditions .
Thank you
👍 I like sugar. 🧁 Avoided it for many years to save my teeth but the artificial sweeteners gave me really bad headaches. I really don't care anymore. I went 10 years without eating anything chocolate. I decided I'd rather just eat what I want and not listen to people anymore. But, I like listening to you and appreciate the information. I like learning new things and I do take it into account.
Are foods high in oxalates also something that causes kidney stones?
Thank you Dr Berry..! This is an excellent video to share with loved ones 😍
Is it possible to gain weight after eating a little sugar item overnight?? I am on keto and haveolose 20 lbs.but I ate sweet potatoes with brown swerve and I've gained 2 lbs!! I am nearly 72, have 85 lbs to loose
struggled all my life with weight, been slim only 4 times in my adult life; this struggle is so hard and discouraging. Thanks for your great videos.
I stopped eating after 3 in the afternoon and lost weight fast. Good luck 😊
Does anyone else here have chronic pain like fibromyalgia and went off the sugar? I’m just wondering how long it takes to start helping?
Very good information thank you
Spot on as always!
Dr Berry if sugar causes weight gain then explain Freelee,FullyrawKhristina,and Happy Healthy Vegan,all eat tons of natural sugar,non have any of the issues you've listed.
I would include gallstones, too. Didn’t know I had any until I finally “felt” them and got an ultrasound and lo and behold there they were. ☹️👎🏻 😒🗿🗿🗿 Since eating Ketovore with higher fat, it flushes out the gallbladder and I haven’t had any pain since...PTL. Thanks Dr. B! Wish that I knew of you 20 years ago when the sugar shizz show started in my bod. Have a great rest of the week! Christine in sunny CO ☀️
How can we download that chart for blood glucose? Thanks for the shows and information.
Migraines, psoriasis and heartburn all went away when I started keto. Listen to your body people, if you know you know!!!
thanx doc. god bless
My brother was diagnosed with Parkinson's late in 2007, and is now, at the age of 64, in the very advanced stages of it. He suffers from severe migraines, has done so for decades (he also has had multiple closed head injuries from various odd incidences in his life).
Unfortunately, though she's an excellent caregiver otherwise, his wife will not make dietary changes that would eliminate starches, grains and sugars, because my brother "absolutely loves" all things sugary, sweet, heavy in pastas and breading, etc., etc.
She and I are not at all close, so there's no way I can convince her that a dietary change would benefit them both. Neither of them are overweight, but again, the migraines, the Park's, her thyroid issues (she had to have most of it removed decades ago, before I ever knew her)---I wish I could get it through to her, to them, that changing their way of eating to keto, carnivore, or ketovore would make such a huge difference, but again, I have to keep my mouth shut.
*Please tell me are eggs good for Diabetics?*
Whats your take on organic stevia and organic monkfruit for sweetners in coffee or cooking?
*I often have cold hands and feet, even packed on with clothes. Now when I cut the carbs and replace them with healthy fat, I feel much warmer...*
*Now let’s put sugar to blame yeah*
As a diabetic I can tell you that a lot of carbs convert to sugar , my blood sugars are high from carbs 😫
@@katelynnmcdougall9826 mine too. Mine really high right now from steroids. Dr said it can take 2 weeks to come back to my normal high
Dr Berry you da best! Thanks to your videos I knew things that are significantly changing my relation and my family's relation with food! Hugs from Brazil ❤🇧🇷
As much as I love your informative videos!!!! I'm so confuse about drinking fruit juices and eating grains since most of other medical sources or nutritionist has been recommend against? Who should we trust??????
Not confusing at all. Avoid both for optimal health.
Thanks Dr. Berry for great tips for a better health
i hail from southern part of india....we use country sugar ....
