My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article ruclips.net/user/postUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.
I have type 1 diabetes since I was 2 years old and I am 60 now and I am legally blind from diabetic retinopathy and macular enema and I am getting e,e injections now , I have had them about 35 years ago and type 1 diabetes is no joke, so to all the people out there please try to keep your sugar in check and stay healthy as long as you can 😎👍💪
*My daughter drinks lots of water and urinates with the same rate, there are no other symptoms to show if those have anything to do with diabetes. This is a good information that I have gone through **Diabets.Care** She is 2 years 9 months, hale and healthy, have not done any blood test. But I am not certain if one can get diabetes at such a tender age. Please I will like to know more on that*
Wrong. Most doctors - at best, many doctors - know squat about physiology and nutrition. They don't accept the good studies. They preach the failed dogma of the FDA and the Harvard School of Public Health. It doesn't take an advanced degree to realize that carbs cause an insulin response, and that, in time, insulin resistance is the direct consequence. Look around. You might notice that lotsa folks are ailing from metabolic disorders.
Yes, you can get diabetes at any age. I'm a type one diabetic and was diagnosed around age 11, but most diabetics I've known were diagnosed earilier. Consult her physician if you have concerns.
@@canamforlife2275 Are you for real ??? The only bad food on the list I like is BBQ sauce. All of the stuff on this list is crap-tasting food. Yes, once in a few months I might get a small McD's fries, but the others are not worth the hour workout to burn them off. Why would you ever eat rice or drink a sports drink???
I was just diagnosed with diabetes 2 and I already have a heart condition. I'm starting each day with prayer and this video to keep me on the right track! Thanks!.
Try 168 fasting and low carb diet. It works！I lost 9kg in 3 months and reduced medicine by 50%. Hypertension also improved, I almost can get rid of medicine. ruclips.net/video/B5JvqfLb2r8/видео.html
Heart condition probably caused by the last 10 years (at least) of building insulin resistance that the Drs. never check for. I have been there done that with a 3x bypass and never really got any healing after surgery until I went very low carb and high natural fat keto way of eating. 74 years old now and no meds for anything other than supplements. A1c in the low 5s, fatty liver is gone bp in the 110-120 range over the 60s and my hearts ejection fraction increased by 11% after the diet change from plant based to keto
It is just your new normal. That’s what I learned with my son. Find new patterns and people who will support the new lifestyle. Go ahead one day at a time. By doing this my son who doctors didnt really think would be alive at 26-28 is healthier than ever and turning 30 this year.
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes almost two years ago. I eliminated everything on the list above, as well as some other things, and reversed my diabetes within a month. Since then I have lost 60 lbs and look and feel better than ever at age 49.
Same age. Pre-type 2. My dad is type 2. I eat only fruits and veggies raw, and fresh. I do dip them in dressing, but don't slather them in it. I eat fish for dinner, usually, or another protein, but usually no sauce. I drink water all day long. I was drinking hot tea with honey, but I think it was still interfering with my blood sugar. I was drinking green tea, along with some other kinds, and mixing them. Tea bags, not pre-made. I put one spoonful of honey, and that was it, but I have since just gone to almost nothing but water to drink. I'm exercising more, and just feel better, overall.
Scott Cohen, Happy for you. I’m trying to reverse it too. I hope I can have the same success as you. I’ve lost 7 pounds in just a few weeks. I exercise daily.
@@orsie200 one thing I do, when exercising....i don't do the same routine every day. I switch up times, techniques, and exercises. I think that may help avoid the plateau. At least, I hope so!
Great video! I'm type 2, and within three months of eating extremely cleanly and training hard in the gym, as well as hiking and cycling....I've almost reversed it after living with it for around 15 years. The visceral fat I have carried around my waist has almost all disappeared and I'm feeling absolutely fantastic! My blood sugars are almost at non diabetic levels now, down to 45 mmol when they were 85 mmol twelve months ago, and between 53 mmol and 65 mmol between three and nine months ago. Looking forward to seeing my HBA1C results in another 3 months. It is possible to eat like a king, just by not buying any toxic foods, and also not eating anything for 2 hours + before going to bed. It works wonders honestly.......just try it! As per the video, kill the bread/wheat products, kill the white potato and white rice. Only use healthy fats such as extra virgin olive oil, ghee, coconut oil instead of seed/vegetable oils (poison). Avacados, green non-starchy vegetables such as brocolli, green beans and asparagus, leafy greens including spinich, lentils (yummy), make your own dressings as per this video, creme freche, sweet potato, oatmeal, natural honey as a sweetener (small amounts), nuts and grains. Chicken, fish or even vegan non meat burgers can be good (check the additives before buying) as well as eggs. All of which are full of protein and contain good fats. Very small amounts of fruits, and not late in the day, and berries are your best bet ie strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and raspberries. Try a few of those with some creme freche or full fat greek yoghurt for a delicious dessert!! Bananas are tasty, however, not the best fruit for us diabetics, so try to have a few slices instead of a full one if you can. Most alcoholic beverages such as beers and red wine are loaded with carbs and calories so should be consumed sparingly too. Oh and this also goes hand in hand with high cholesterol! My levels are back to normal for the first time in years, and that's without any statins. Hope this at least helps some of you out there, and good luck! 😁😁😁
@I love you all,no tension I'm no doctor, and can only speak for what has been working for me. However, my guess would be stick to eating healthy and staying active as long as you can for the rest of your life for maximum longevity of results. Eat good, train hard, feel good, look good etc... 😁 PS I'm sure the odd cheat day once in a blue moon is ok once you have achieved your personal goals. The benefits are when we skip the evil treats on a daily basis, when we do eventually have them, they taste even better than before! haha
Just found out at age 65 that I'm now type 2 after years of being cautioned that I was prediabetic, I wish I would have paid more attention to what I ate and educated myself on the do's and don'ts. Now I'm watching and reading everything I can on the subject. This video was one of the better ones so far.
I’d probably found out I wasn’t as healthy as I thought I was at 70. I was told I was prediabetic, too. If your biggest problem is diabetes and diet, maybe it is not hard reverse overall bad health … maybe you will be enjoying the journey
dietdoctor.com has all sorts of info and videos and a very good paid ( cheap ) membership for even more info. However just because you get rid of the 15 edibles in this video does not mean that you become diabetes free. Nope other things may be causing troubles like, insulin resistance. So yes some will benefit greatly by getting these 15 items off the menu but as I do not eat these 15 items and still have horrible readings on A1c's there are other problems at hand.
@@brucewmclaughlin9072 We are a perfect example here in my house. Both type 2 diabetics, but I am always eating at home. Just retired now, but even when I worked I took my lunch. He, on the other hand, will not take a lunch with him as he works as a cook and figures he can fix something there - which is never healthy. He also grabs candy bars and juice drinks or things like Snappier or the one that is half lemonade/half iced tea. Oh,, and he always comes home drinking a latte. His cereal this week is Captain Crunch. If I eat cereal, it is Honey Nut Cheerios. I, on the other hand, drink the one cup of coffee in the morning, 3-16.9 oz bottles of water, 1-4oz glass of orange or grapefruit juice a.m. and p.m. with medications, and I treat myself to one Caffeine-Free Diet Soda per day (not great for me, but this keeps me out of worse things to get a break from water). Bread I eat is homemade, and I replace sugar with honey and most often it is oatmeal bread. My snacks are a veggie, cheese, and a fruit serving. Sometimes I make boiled eggs. He says he eats what I give him, but I assure you I did not buy that Captain Crunch, candy bars, or hot dogs he eats at work. Even when we have ice cream, the one I eat is a "light" ice cream. His is rocky road. I also never bought the pop tarts, Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches, etc. I do, however, take responsibility for seeing to it he takes all his medication. So, he does not understand why my A1c runs 5.9 to 6.1, and at best when he actually did stick to what I made here at home, I have once gotten his to 6.9. Otherwise, can't get it down below ave 7.6, and the one he just had was 8.5. So, tonight the "fight" begins. It is Wed salad night. I will make a full dinner salad, which is filling. He will have a bowl of cereal after, his store-made latte with both sugar and powder creamer, a glass of half iced-tea half cran-grape juice, and then after I fall asleep something I know nothing of. I have to try to stop some of this down. He is peeing constantly right now, his neuropathy is worsening, as is his eyesight. I have a syndrome called Charcot-Marie-Tooth which, so far, has resulted in full loss of structure of left foot, worsening deformity of rt foot, and both hands, as well as diaphragmatic spams which make breathing and swallowing difficult, but I remain fully responsible for the exercise life of my Siberian huskies. So, what I am telling you is part of all this, for most of us, is what we put into it!!
@@duskahenry791 Kevin, we all wish that we had taken better care of our diets. Just know that you can beat diabetes and in so doing by adopting the new car free diet, you will enjoy good health again. Your doctor will be pleased that you decided to investigate how to get rid of this dreadful disease. So take heart and persist to not eat any sweets or foodstuffs that have carbs in them. Regards Robert
my dr cautioned me but i didnt pay attention. i ballooned up 230 lbs and i am 5 ' 2". now i am on metformin and not doing that well. if i could have just listened..my wt is back down to 148 but i still need to lose 20 more lbs.
My glucose was measured at 266. My doctor wanted to put me on medication. I begged him not to, I’ll turn it around. He gave me three months, then a blood screening. I cut sugar and exercised , went thru the painful withdrawal. In three months, measured 115 , fatty liver was gone. Dropped lots of weight, waist size 42 to a 36 in three months. Food… from the ground to your mouth….. protein and onions and peppers Beans, fresh salads, and good amounts of butter. Your body and brain will stop feeding on sugar and start feeding on protein and fat.
Wow that's amazing. Well done. I'm trying to do the same. I 'm on my 22nd day. Hard at first but it's getting easier with time. I'm prediabetic. Trying to reverse it. Lost 7 pounds so far.
@@lucyclink9163I was pre-diabetic also for the past two years. I did an entire change in my diet and drank more water. Each time I went to the doc my AC1 went down this last visit 12/19/23 did my blood work and my AC1 is now 5.6. 🎉🎉 Trying my best to at stay at this number.
I have been a type 1 diabetic for over 30 years. Most diabetics count carbohydrates. Just about everything you eat turns into glucose once it hit your stomach, with a few exceptions. You have to have a balance in your diet or you will feel deprived. Nothing should be off limits. Enjoy food, just watch the amount and what it does to your sugar levels. Test your glucose often throughout the day. That really is the key.
I have been fighting back against diabetes 2 for a few months. A friend told me; after I described what I was going through, it sounded like my body was shutting down and I was near death. I did a 180* turn a round in my diet and going from over 600 points, to under 120; and getting into the 70's to 90's pretty regularly on all three pre-mealtime meter readings. I'm trying to regulate the swelling in my feet with herbs; but at least my toes aren't turning black anymore. I also quite waking up in the middle of the night starving and I have lost a few pounds. About 20 lbs from a year ago. No more buffets and most of what this video covered. MK
I have got diabetes 2 and I can honestly say it doesn't bother me all at all doesn't effect my life one bit except having to be careful what I eat. Never had a bad report after having a blood test so I must be doing something right.
Sugar addiction is a serious, Worldwide problem. Thank you for this video. I am walking 5 miles now, every other day. At 65, I really need to eat better meals.
I've been type 2 for over 15yrs. I am now at pre diabetic levels because I don't over do it. I do admit that I will never give up my Heinz Ketchup but use it in Moderation. An excellent substitute for soft drinks is Water. Got a sweet tooth have about 20 grapes. I also bake my own bread, 3 ingredients, whole grain flour, water and yeast. You do have to add 1tablespoon of sugar to activate the yeast. Don't torment yourself and try to quit cold turkey, it's gradual. Moderation, Moderation and Moderation is the key to enable you to have that occasional pasta dinner or fruit juice just don't get that mentality that it's not that much this time. Are you so weak, No you're not.
@E EE Hi the bread recipe is quite simple. 6 cups King Arthur Flour, best flour because it is higher in protein. Yeast : 1 1/4 tablespoon, and approx 2 cups warm tap water. Take 1 cup water and 2 tablespoon sugar, needed to activate the yeast mix all 3 set aside and let the yeast get foamy, 15-20min . Place flour in mixer, start mixer and add all water and yeast. For moister bread add some olive oil about 1/4 cup. If you are not watching calories add a melted stick of butter. As bread mixes gradually add remaining water. When bread forms a ball in the mixer it's ready. Remove bread, kneed dough for 3-5 min set aside in a bowl. Dough will 2X in size. Deflate dough then form desired loafs let it rise again, approx 1hr .350* preheated oven. Bake, cool off and enjoy 😀🍞✌
@E EE Hi again, it will not be as soft as store bought bread but the addition of your favorite flavorings, spices, cooked or raw veggies ect. Even cheeses. Stay healthy, stay alive! Good Luck, God Bless
Just found this video & channel. Found out a week ago i have high blood pressure & am pre-diabetic. Started bp meds on Tuesday & have been very careful what I eat & have been following the dash eating plan. Lost 3 lbs in a week. I do need to lose about 25-30 lbs. this video is very eye opening!!! Thank you so much for this! Need to share it with my family too!!
I had the onset of diabetes for 20 years and changed my diet in the beginning. It was only when I hurt my back and couldn't physically work anymore I became a diabetic. Exercise speaks volumes also.
I'm Type 1 diabetic (43 yrs) and I learned to just read the nutrition labels when I'm grocery shopping. I was taught about hidden sugars in food when I was in my late teens.
Unlike type 2 diabetes, you are not responsible for this illness. You were born with a body unable to provide enough insulin after meals. I had a class mate with this illness : she had to monitor her blood before each meal and before taking her insulin shot. It's just unfair because many others get sick because of their poor food choices.
I am type 2. I use to weigh at 89 kgs. After 8 months of medication, exercise, diet am now able to control my sugar level and I weigh now 66 kgs. High intensity training and total removal of carbohydrates from my diet has really helped. There are certain fruits also not good for diabetes like bananas for example unless taken in very little amount. Parboiled rice is also a very good option besides brown rice. Good luck to my fellow diabetics out there. You can do it!
Just avoid these: white flour, processed sugar, soda, can/bottle fruit juice, french fries or potato chips, pizza. Just read a label. Not that hard, but hard to resist.
I dont think u totally eliminate sugar in ur body but simply minimize it. How sure are u everything ur body consumed are without sugar or hidden sugar or sweeteners? Besides, our body needs sugar otherwise u will be weak.
Spot on with this knowledge, I had a big problem with type2 for years and was told by our local specialist all of this information and I Followed these guides and I now am pill free and my sugar values are in the middle of the recommended blood numbers. I hope people listen. As I walk into all grocery stores I look around and all I see is displayed junk food everywhere, I also notice people leaving the store with large amounts of junk in the cart and the person pushing the cart just doesn’t get the danger. Thanks. PS I was 240 lbs and now 185.
As a type two diabetic, I cut my A1C down from 8.8 to 6 by following the recommendations of this excellent video. But I also eliminated grains, and that includes whole wheat grains.
Paul, T2 sufferers need to eliminate any edible product if it contains carbohydrate. It is difficult but doable and once the food list represents items with less than 1%, the benefits of the intermittent fasting kick in big time. Also eat a tablespoon of coconut oil fat per day to assist energy levels and manage hunger pangs. The oil is in liquid state on the supermarket shelves. Put and keep it in the fridge to solidify. NOT IN THE FREEZER. Eat 1xtablespoonful when required.
I'm a type1 diabetic, have been for years. I was never given the foods above and I don't desire them at all. If you can eliminate the rubbish, you can transform your health, and hopefully put these large greedy companies that are killing you out of business.
@ssmatsusaka Hi. I think they never included what's considered the obvious culprits. May I ask, if you don't monitor your food do you have to take tablets/Insulin?
As a physician of 36 years, this video is somewhat good. Basically, diabetics, hypertensive (high blood pressure) and others should eat protein, fats (yes fats), low to no carbohydrate veggies especially dark green leafy (except on blood clotting RX). Try doing the Ketogenic or KETO diet for 60 days. I bet your BP and glucose go down. Maybe even you wont need RX or as many.
A little over a year ago type 2 almost killed me. Blood sugar shot up to well over 1000, 3 days in a coma, pumped full of insulin. A week and a half in the hospital. About a month or so later, I discovered the ketogenic diet, a month or so after that I got off the insulin and have been med free ever since. We need more doctors, like you, to get on board with this.
Dr Clark, Re: Diabetes and food Thank you for your comments relative to what diabetics should eat in order to best assist the eradication of T1/T2. Please note that in your short comment you have imparted more information than I received at the consultation where I learned that I was confirmed as having type 2 diabetes. How simple and less stressful would it be if the medical services had a simple pamphlet at hand to give to new diabetics as a guide to their diet, what foodstuffs to not eat and exercise regimes? There are still far too many diabetics who eat carbohydrate not knowing they should not. There are too many of us who have been prescribed the wrong medications. Knowledge of the A - Z detailing how to combat the disease through consuming the correct foodstuffs and also to list the foods we have to avoid if we are to succeed in our personal battles against this dreaded disease which needlessly kills too many people around the world. The more we learn about this disease, the more armed we can be from the start to ensure each of us eradicates diabetes & regains our health to once again lead our lives to the full. Robert Bruce
i was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 10 years ago and now suffer from severe diabetic neuropathy because i had such a high A1c. i did not have medical insurance for a lot of years and when i finally got my A1c checked it was 16.9! my doctor did not know why i was not in a diabetic coma.after a lot of years i have finally gotten it down to between 6.0 and 7.0
Thank you for this video , I ' ve been struggling with type 2 and got to the point I realize I am the only one that can start to recover by taking care of myself it starts with this video and I thank you . My weight is 380 lbs will let you know my progress
* *Allow me to weigh in* * - I'm 20 years US Navy (semi-retired). *"Semi"* = too young to sit on the porch, twiddling my thumbs. My sugar has never been high. For my coffee, I substitute sugar with pure maple syrup (locally sourced, for authenticity). Yes, I know I know......this is still in the 'sugar' family. - Another no-no are cakes, desserts, ho-ho's, dingle snacks, Hostess cakes....etc. I've never eaten them (after high school, that is). - *"Carbs can convert to sugar and be harmful"* - Yes, so I exercise every other day by running 4-8 miles. A runners high is *AMAZING!* I'm telling you this from experience. - Live long and prosper, friends!
At 65, had run, swum, cycled huge distances by most standards except pro athletes. Never smoked, drank very little alcohol, no other drugs, my diet ticked all the right boxes. Massive heart attack April 2020, did all the rehab and back to cycling and fast long walks. Pre-diabetes diagnosed spring 2021. It's genetic up to a point. On PDB diagnosis got and applied Dr Michael Mosley's 8-Week Blood Sugar Diet and recipe book. Lost 35lbs/16kg in 12 weeks. I'd been putting on 2mm a year for 45 years = 3½ inches of belly fat due to the high quality bread, peanut butter, quality cheese, or quality honey after the exercise. Carbs are bad. Keep to absolute minimum. Natural level of glucose in blood is 2 teaspoons. Body not designed to handle the mega infusions our modern, still approved high carb diets pump into our bodies. Feel great now and inspired by gold medallist woman keirin at Tokyo Olympics. She had heart attack in 2015, stent, won one of most cardio intensive events in sport. I'm back to 120 deep pushups in batches of 5 with 60 second rest
Thanks for setting the right tone on condemning the food processing industry. Processed foods = junk, and it's often more expensive than ordinary healthy foods. From the list of 15 types of food you learned about here conduct a little test. Next time you go to the grocery store notice how much shelf space is devoted to these types of food. Whole aisles of sugary sodas, potato chip and snack type foods, cookies, candy, fruit juices, and baked goods. It's a lot of the shelf space. And it's bad for you and good for the grocery store and processed food manufacturers profit margins.
For beginners eat in moderation or pottion control until you get used to avoiding all unhealthy sugar loaded food. A glucometer will help too for monitoring blood sugar
To aid my portion control I bought some smaller plates. I'm sure dinner plates were smaller when I was young. They seem to have expanded along with our waistlines.
M.P., grilled salmon and cod, fresh veggies, fresh fruits, peanut butter, homemade yogurt for breakfast, hard boiled eggs for bedtime snacks, nuts, chicken, turkey burgers, basically healthy food choices. No white rice, very little pasta or potatoes, no unhealthy snacks and no sweets/unhealthy desserts. I ate foods that helped lower my blood sugar and cholesterol. Also watch your fats as well as carbs and sugar grams in foods. It’s pretty easy once you’ve decided to take control and eat healthy. We all know the wrong things we eat that causes weight gain/obesity and diabetes. Good luck!
I’m going have my grandson watch this. He’s been T1 since he was 4. No one tried to educate him about his diet. When I got him in my custody, I started right away. Too much of any good food is bad. Pasta, potatoes, bagels, pretzels are horrid. Counter balance these foods with fresh fruits and vegetables. Weigh in your foods and snacks. Last, I tell him to read the label set a better table. He’s about to be 13 and hitting the sugar craving.
@@lessehead Trust me; it wasn't something I was proud of. I still have wine during birthdays, holidays, etc, but I was drinking so much wine 7 days a week, and would feel like sh@t at work. I guess I was drinking my problems away, but it only made them worse. I'm in a better place now!
I was diagnosed type 2 about 3 years ago. Cut all this stuff out still having issues. Found out my type 2 came with a bonus, a pancreatic tumor. I must say it's a fantastic challege. I love it.
I'm sorry to hear that, man...You have indeed a fantastic challenge at hand, but i love your good spirit and determination..I sincerily wish you all the best and all the luck. You deserve it for your positive attitude. Stay well.
Thank you so much. Here in my Country, all bread, white or whole grain bread, are loaded with added sugar. At times, I realize that I have less food to choose, as a diabetic. Cheers
I agree, but I admit that I always have problems with "acai". I can't tell you the dozens of times I've looked it up on google to see how it's pronounced, and still can't remember how to pronounce it.
It's amazing how much stuff we used to call "junk food" is actually high carbohydrate food. I eliminated most of the foods on this list and cut my A1C in half after eliminating insulin. If I knew what I know now I could have drastically cut my blood sugar in just 3 or 4 days. It's not like losing weight which often takes months (after that initial 5 pounds which seems so easy). Some the things that you may consider eating: olive oil, eggs, steak, pork, salmon, sausage, bacon (no added sugar!), roasted chicken, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussel sprouts, asparagus and cabbage. Note how few processed foods are on this list. So there are foods that you can actually eat. Everyone is different, so you have to learn what is right for you. Insulin is often great for Type 1 diabetics (I'm Type II, and have no need for a fat storage hormone). Be guided by your blood sugar meter.
The biggest problem I have with videos like this one is that there is still this very unhealthy idea to push whole grains onto diabetics when many diabetics simply can't tolerate them any better than the same products made with white flour and starches. Whole grain rice still has 46g of carbs per serving, and anyone with even moderate insulin resistance will see their blood sugar spike. Same with a sweet potatoes.
Thank you for an informative clip. I am already aware and got the list all right. I've been a diabetic for 40 years. I have just a little treat rarely. Exercise is your best friend.
Please, watch this video to the end (an Arabic drink to cure diabetes by the grace of Allah) it is just 2 minutes ruclips.net/video/LYAGpMMSm8o/видео.html But Keep in your mind that the owner of this video is not a specialist doctor, but he tells you about his personal experience as a diabetic.
The most convenient way to not eat all these bad foods? Have a sulphite allergy. Almost all foods listed here (excluding white bread/pasta) would give me a migraine so bad I'm literally bed ridden for days at a time. Makes it really easy to avoid processed food and forces you to cook your own, healthier versions of everything.
Iwas so addicted to soda. Yes addicted! I've been soda free for over 3 years. It wasn't easy. I wasn't only addicted to the sugar, but the carbon too. The best thing I ever did!
same here and most of my weight loss as came from me not drinking soda and i love rice soo i had stopped eating it for a while but i went back to eating it but very little of it.
I love soda too. I am trying to lose weight and keep my sugar low. I found a flavored water soda callled "Ice" it is delicous. You should try it. no sugar, natural.
@@robertnegron9706 I'm almost a carnivore this very reason, and it's a good one. I'm almost allergic to most vegetables, additives and preservatives etc. to everything that comes in a package so my limit is fresh food. Once you get used to it it's worth it. The only thing I can't stop consuming is instant coffee with cream. Milk even effects me. I've been this way now for forty years but only this bad for twenty five years. I'm healthier now than I have been for most of my life, I'm now seventy.
Sugar alcohols are supposed to be safe, but even in small amounts, I got diarrhea and upset stomach. I even ended up with pancreatitis and had my gallbladder out after eating some fake crab and ice cream with sorbitol in it. It's an accumulative effect. I tried some unsweetened tea that had monkfruit and discovered it was erythritol which also gave me diarrhea at the same restaurant I ate at a diner 2x. The first was a salmon-crab sandwich. Since I read labels now and ask if the crab is real or what is in the food, I have had no more diarrhea or upset stomach. My dogs and I both have to avoid xylitol. Bali and sf Vitamin Water both include erythritol and so will many new ice creams.
Potatoes are high glycemic when they're eaten hot. When you let them cool down, they become what's known as a 'Resistant Starch' and won't spike your blood sugar. Same thing happens to white rice. Brown rice is actually worse for you than white rice as it contains even higher levels of arsenic.
When you do without you learn to ignore the cravings. Think of your goal. Also cut back on portion size. I eat a Keto diet and cut back on portions. I can no longer stuff myself as I could years ago. 1/2 way through a meal and I'm calling quits because my stomach can't hold it.
Thank you so very much for this video. I am pre-diabetic and I have found this very interesting. I look forward to even more information that you have to offer or recipes.
I just found out I'm pre also. What have you been doing about it? I have so much anxiety because it seems like you can't eat anything even foods that are good for you is not really good
Thank you! I just learned that I have developed type 2 diabetes, and I'm so angry - at myself, and at doctors who never mentioned it. Now I've got to make changes.
Thanks for this 'back to reality' video. I liked this video mainly because it directs me back to what I have to do to control my type 2 diabetes. Facing reality is hard and 20 years ago I did not even think about diabetes nor was I concerned. Then 10 years ago I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and I was given the facts to the max. This video on the 15 foods to avoid is so hard to do mainly because of the cravings I have for junk food but I keep watching this video to remind me that this is what's happening to my body if I don't change my food intake. Best video ever for diabetics. 😥😀😕
Not even close to the best video ever for diabetics. There are several things wrong in this video. 1. For instance, eating whole grains. Nope. A diabetic's body can't really tell the difference between simple carbs and complex carbs. Ultimately, all of it breaks down into glucose (except fiber). The problem is that the blood cells become resistant to storing that glucose, which causes your pancreas to overproduce insulin. Hence, your blood sugar spikes. Don't switch white rice with whole grain rice. Cut out all rice altogether. Use riced cauliflower instead. Same with bread. Whole grain bread can spike blood sugar just as badly as white bread. Get rid of it. Find a substitute like using egg wraps instead. 2. They were absolutely insane to suggest replacing regular potatoes with sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are incredibly high in carbohydrates. It's no safer to eat than a regular potato. Any health expert worth their salt would never tell a diabetic to eat a sweet potato. 3. Store bought, bottled salad dressings, like ranch and blue cheese, actually doesn't have a lot of carbs in them. They are actually quite safe to eat as long as you don't drown your salad in them. They also make a nice vegetable dip. Never has a moderate amount of store bought ranch or blue cheese dressing ever spiked my blood sugar. In fact, it hardly even effects my blood sugar at all. Videos like this are harmful because they are based on outdated nutritional information. A diabetic shouldn't be trying to control their diabetes, they should be trying to reverse it. You can listen to them, or you can listen to me, someone who actually did reverse his diabetes. I'm a type 2 diabetic. At my worst, my A1C was at 7.6. I now have an A1C of 5.1. 5.1 isn't just controlling diabetes, that's a complete reversal. My blood glucose is at a normal, non-diabetic level. And I will be up front with you, that didn't happen until I cut grains out of my diet.
@@NexusNine Bless you NexusNine! I agree with every word you say, i'm into this DB, Resistance ,you name it they don't even know for sure what i am type 1 or 2, 4 years was 2 then they thre away the metformin and then the small amts of insulin, I have to practically starve myself to keep my numbers low. I track every shot,everycouple hours, the dinget on CGM goes off even if im not going high, if i dont eat it goes high, can't win for losing. People haven"t a clue how hard it is to live with your spouse and try to be normal. NexusNine feel free to contact me,if you have any other tips not mentioned here. This doesn't tell me anything I didn't already know. God Bless, Joy
Wow, I found that information very very interesting. Very well explained to understand clearly. I’m in a position we’re my sugar levels are high and the doctor is quick to want to put me in medication. Doctor is giving me a chance to reduce my levels. So I’m researching each day. This programmer I’ve found very useful and made me much clearer of what chances I need to make. I’m determined that mediation is not going to be my life on this health issue. So I’m on it and finding it very interesting and also quite sad at how I was eating before. I’ve subscribed to the channel and will continue to watch to keep me on track. 👍🏽👍🏽
For years (type 1 diabetic since 1970) I ate whole-grain everything. I’d steam grains of whole rye or wheat and eat them instead of pasta. They spiked my blood sugar almost as much as ordinary pasta did. Don’t think that whole grain will make much difference. It’s held in reverence by various people, and one can grow to tolerate or even like the flavor and texture, but in my experience it’s only marginally better than ordinary refined sources of starch.
I am having trouble getting mine under control I have been intermitting fasting for a year in August don't eat after 6 still not doing as well as I could I can't give up APPLES
Eating healthy is easier said than done. I am a Canadian, I have 6 kid's, and am a type 2 diabetic. The food prices in Canada are rediculously high, especially in the last 2 years, and we are told it is only going to get worse. Organic food is completely out of my price range.
I feel for you, I am a pure foodie, I love my food. read my comment above, you will see how I feel about this article. It is good to a point, but like with your situation on expensive food up there, I feel for you on not being able to eat better.
It does not have to be 'organic' it needs to be 'unprocessed'. Simple guide: when at the supermarket, avoid the centre isles, they are full of industrially created, refined and chemically processed foodstuffs. Go to the isles on each side of the stores. There you will find plants and animals to eat, like your ancestors ate for millions of years. Eat plants and animals and you will be healthy. If you do have to supplement with the packaged stuff from the centre isles eg. for flavour, look at the labels. Avoid sugars, refined carbohydrates and artificial oils. This natural food is cheaper by bulk/mass than the processed stuff. You will save money by eating unprocessed plants and animals. 'Animals' includes fish and birds. It's really very simple, and beneficial.
@@valerielutter7921 I don't by packaged junk. When comes to non organic some is worse than others. Some GMO. to produce bt toxins. Some are overly sprayed with chemicals. I avoid them. Mainly fruit that isn't peeled and whole grain products. Wherever possible i either buy locally from people i know aren't using chemical sprays. Or i buy organic. Much of my vegetables i grow myself. I avoid chemicals whenever possible !!
I really enjoyed learning about the worst foods. I drink the sugar-free fruit flavored drinks. It's hard eating boring foods instead of the food that tastes good.
Having been a lifetime addict to sugar sodas and sugar itself, I have now been off soda for several years, and have been sugar-free for over 2 years now. I promise you, Sandra, that if you will give it 100% and get off sugar, your body will actually start enjoying the stuff that it currently finds "boring". When you kick the sugar, your body starts tasting the actual sugar in fruits, nuts, and even crazy things like celery. I actually like celery, but after about a year of being sugar-free, I took a bite of a stick of celery and it actually had a little bit of sweet taste. I had never noticed that in my entire life until that moment. I have to throw in here though that it is super important to be careful not to go the route of sweeteners that contain aspartame. The sweetener I use is stevia. It definitely took some getting used to, and all Stevia is not manufactured the same. It took a couple of tries to find one that suited my taste, but it is a 100% natural sweetener, and it does not have the neurotoxins that so many of the other common sugar substitutes have. Anyway, if you choose to do it, you will be amazed. I never ever thought I would be free of soda and free of sugar. It's still amazes me!
If you have to, sell you soul to the deity of your choice to avoid getting full blown type 2. Your life will never be the same if you get it, take it from me. Best case scenario, it's a slow death from 1000 cuts...worst case scenario, they start chopping your toes, feet and legs off, or you get heart disease/have a heart attack, go blind, etc. Best part about it is that the "standard" treatment here in the US guarantees that the disease will progress. I could go on and on, but hopefully I'm scaring the sh** out of you to do whatever you need to. In all sincerity, good luck!
Absolutely not. There is a lot of misinformation in this video surrounding whole grains. Most diabetics can't eat grains without having blood sugar spikes. The diet presented in this video is the standard diet most dietitians put their clients on to manage diabetes. Problem is, the success rate for this diet is actually kind of low because it's not designed to reverse diabetes; it's designed only to manage it. Most diabetics will remain in prediabetic or low diabetic range, often having to continue medication as well. And to be frank, it doesn't have to be that way. At all. Type 2 diabetes can absolutely be reversed. I would know because I did it. I reversed my diabetes. A1C dropped from 7.6 to 5.1. And guess what? Whole grains had to go. Sweet potatoes had to go too. They aren't any safer than a regular potato. Less carbs? Yes. Still packed full of carbs, though.
@@NexusNine Thank you for your comments and sharing your experience. As a vegetarian (NOT a Vegan - I still have dairy products like butter and milk) my diet choices are restricted. I cannot eat meat. If I set aside grains all I have to left to consume are vegetables and fruits. So what I try to do is consume those grains which have low glycemic index such as oats, quinoa, rye, millets and brown rice. By consuming these and taking my diabetes medication I am able to manage although my sugars levels are definitely not as healthy as I would like.
@@lgopalakrishnan3181 I hope you respond back to this, because I really want to have a legitimate and candid conversations with you. It's your life and you live it as you please, but please consider what I'm going to say in this message. I'm not going to lie, I know vegans and vegetarians who have had to change to an omnivore diet and reintroduce meat into their meals for health reasons. Equally, I also know people who have controlled their diabetes on a plant-based diet, but do so understanding that they have a very limited pallet of what they can eat. They don't have a lot of variety in their diet, and they are okay with that. But it doesn't look like you are okay with such a limited diet. To be flat, grains have to go, my friend. They are what's keeping you diabetic and on medication. You've unfortunately fallen into the same trap that all of us fall into on our diabetic journey. I promise you, I have fallen into this trap myself, and nothing good comes from grains in a diabetic body. Oats are no good. One serving is 60 net grams of carbs. Brown rice is 45g of net carbs. Quinoa has 39g of net carbs per serving. Millet has 39g. These are what's keeping you diabetic. None of them are diabetic safe. Nor are the recommended carb limits that are prescribed by some dietitians. Many dietitians continue to push the idea that complex carbs are safer and better to eat than simple carbs, which is true but also untrue. Safer, yes. But safe in general? No. Complex carbs still break down in the body as glucose. In an insulin resistant individual, it doesn't much matter what kind of carb is breaking down into glucose in their body, the problem is that their blood cells are resistant to storing that glucose as fat and energy, so the pancreas overproduces insulin to compensate. Don't live and breathe by the glycemic index. Carb tracking is far more complex than that. I don't know your reasons for being a vegetarian, whether you can't eat meat for health reasons, or whether it's just that you feel that you have a moral obligation to not eat meat. I get it if it's a feeling of moral obligation, but you're going to have to ask yourself if remaining a vegetarian is worth undermining your own personal health. Because meat really is a major part of a healthy diet. Like I said, you absolutely can control your diabetes on a vegetarian diet, but you have to be willing to live with a very limited number of food choices. Because I promise you, if you don't drop the grains, you're never going to reverse your diabetes, and you're never going to get off your medication. That will likely lead to more insulin resistance, putting more strain on the pancreas. That could then lead to your pancreas shutting down altogether, which you'll then find yourself on daily or weekly insulin injections for the rest of your life. I was on the verge of all of this myself until I realized that grains and oats had to go. Now my blood glucose is in the non-diabetic range and completely normal. If you want to reverse your diabetes, you're going to have to make a choice. Either you're going to have to live with a very limited diet to maintain your vegetarian lifestyle, or you're going to have accept that meat may be a necessity in your diet now. But if you change nothing and keep packing in all of those high carb grains for the sake of food variety, nothing is going to improve. Like I said, I just want to be candid with you. I want to see you beat this.
@@NexusNine First let me thank you for taking the trouble to explain and instruct. I am a vegetarian both by family background and personal inclination. I have read what you wrote about grains and that continuing to eat them will only result in a continued journey on the diabetes path. You also mentioned that giving up grains will leave me with very few choices of diet. In that case I must explore those few choices as well as I can. Perhaps I can bring myself to the point of giving up grains altogether. Perhaps I can reduce grain intake to a bare minimum and increasingly supplant this with other food choices. However, taking to meat is a decided NO for me. I will be looking into what I can do to stay vegetarian and alive. Once again many thanks! :)
@@lgopalakrishnan3181 I'm not going to lie to you, it's not going to be easy to maintain a lower carb diet on a vegetarian diet. It can be done, and I hope you can pull it off. I'm a meat eater, but I can still give you some advice to help you drop those grains from your diet and stick to your vegetarian stance. 1. PASTA. You can replace whole grain pasta noodles with shirataki noodles instead. Shirataki noodles are plant based noodles made from konjac roots. They contain about 4g of fiber per package, and only 2g of net carbs. Net carbs is the amount of carbs a food has after subtracting fiber from the total carb count. Fiber doesn't break down into glucose, so it has little to no affect on blood sugar. Shirataki noodles having only 2g of net carbs makes it a perfect alternative to grain noodles which has over 30g of net carbs in them. Or you can use zucchini noodles. They have about 4g of fiber with 4g of net carbs per package, or just 1g of net carbs for a single serving. I use both shirataki and zucchini noodles to make all of my pasta dishes. I don't miss traditional noodles at all. 2. RICE. Brown rice is packed full of carbs and far less fiber than most people realize. Just 1/4 cup of brown rice is about 30g of net carbs. I'm willing to bet you eat more than just 1/4 cup of rice with your meals. Nobody eats that little bit of rice in one sitting. Meanwhile, cauliflower rice is also plant based, but 1 full cup contains the same 2g of fiber that brown rice has, while only containing about 3.5g of net carbs. You get a larger serving with the cauliflower rice and get a better nutritional value out of it as well. And it's vegetarian friendly. I make all of my rice dishes with cauliflower rice. I don't miss brown rice whatsoever. 3. BREAD. This one you're a little stuck on. Most low carb and keto breads are made with egg whites, which is off limits on your vegetarian diet. I use egg white wraps to make sandwich wraps, quesadillas, quesadilla pizzas, tacos, stuffed spinach cheesy bread, and so on. But on a vegetarian diet, there are very little options for bread replacement. You can try Mission's Carb Balance Wraps, which have a lot of fiber, but the fiber is highly altered and blood sugar can still spike. I never suggest eating more than one on any given day. You may actually just have to give up bread. I don't suggest trying to just simply cut back on the grains. Carbs are already high in serving sizes that are already rather small. Does it sound sustainable to cut 1/4 cup of brown rice in half while still consuming 15g of carbs? You're getting a lot of carbs and walking away hungry. Again, why not eat a full cup of cauliflower rice and get better nutritional values? Now does that mean never, ever eat grains or higher carb foods? No. A small treat once in a while won't hurt. I allow myself a very small portion of potato salad every year for Christmas dinner. It just means that far more often than not, grains and starchy foods cannot be a part of the diet.
I was diagnosed prediabetic. It runs on both sides of my family. I started replacing the white rice with brown. Cut out all sugary drinks. I’m following your list what not to eat. If I don’t buy it, my family won’t eat it. Just used up what I had in my kitchen and replaced everything slowly. And that has worked for me and it was easy to do.
Recently diagnosed with PRE type 2 diabetes, I have changed my diet and eating mostly fresh fruit. I'm hungry all the time. 63 years old and very worried about the PRE type 2 diabetes diagnosis. Michael, England UK 🇬🇧
Eating mostly fruit is not going to do it for you, Michael. You should be eating more protein and vegetables than fruit. Take a look at serving sizes for your protein, and make sure that you're getting at least 20 grams at every meal. Veggies should be non-starchy ones, so leafy greens, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, beets, salad, like that. If you're going to eat fruit, it should be in moderation, and you really should stick to citrus and berries because they have the most fiber.
Thank you for an honest informative video filled with the information we all need to hear. I was just diagosed with the adult 2 diabetis and even though being careful eating good foods is a right thing to so we must know the real reasons about some of our wrong choices. Your video makes me more aware of the foods to stay away from and how not to fall for the gimmics called nutritional.
Shocking! I've started making my own dressings which the ingredients are those you shared. I also have started making my own dry rubs for grilling my meats instead of Barbeque sauce from the store. Thank you and I'm glad I just found your channel to help me be aware of so many negitive items out there. Take care
Thank you so much. I have started gaining weight (oh, yes !!) and I knew I hadn't changed much of my eating style. But you, you wonderful person, were able to exactly point out the changes. Found this lovely natural iced tea. Have been enjoying it for over a year !! Took a look at the ingredients today. Sugar 43g !!!!! Salad dressing. Always made from scratch. Oil, vinegar. etc. Then I found Creamy Cucumber on the store shelf. Good enough to swim in. And pretty much do. LOL. Again, thank you so very much. Time to drop the two tasties so I won't get stuck in my suite. Take care.
You are absolutely right. It is time to sue these health endangering companies as tabacco companies have been sued for smoking. It is time to start now as it is rather late for the health of countless people.
I stopped drinking feel much better and my sugar levels fell eat a lot of fish and chicken instead of pies etc you wouldn't believe how much sugar is in alcohol
@@herbbowler2461 well whatever it is I feel miles better for changing my diet and stopping drinking doctor said he could see the point in my results where I made the change
@@pauldavies8638 Good for you. I am not saying you should drink. However if you choose to. Choose something without added sugar. Such as whiskey and ice. Or dry wine. Or dark ale. Our bodies just get rid of alcohol. It doesn't use it or store it. However if you have any liver problems it is best to abstain. Refined sugar is more of a burden than alcohol. A little raw honey is ok.
Having been Type 1 for 53 years I am pleased to say that I rarely eat any of these foods. I do eat Bulgar Rice but never been sure if that is the same as Brown Rice or what!
@@Georgestella100 , pick the rice that hasn't been refined, meaning it still has it's husk such as; brown rice. You only need a 1/2 to 1 cups a day too meet your daily grains requirement. This depends on your age, and activity level.
Cut the white Bread, pasta, rice and beans from my diet a few years ago. Lost 23 lbs. I’ve gained 5 back, but I’ve maintained this type of eating lifestyle for the most part since. Pretty sure I can lose another 10-15 (bring me down to 175) if I was a little more strict. But carbs are definitely the reason for Type 2 and weight gain.
@@leahgary1107 The Sensible Portions brand ‘Garden Veggie Chips’ are a good alternative to the typical potato chips. The cheddar cheese chips are just one gram of sugar per serving of 14 chips. Similar for other flavors. The fat content is a bit high, but still better than ‘cheating’ by having normal potato chips. They come in tubes like Pringles.
I find this video funny in a painful way. they don't mention that many people in society are poor and have little to no option. The foods we shouldn't eat are the ones that are easiest to afford. Other sites say "tomatoes are bad for arthritus" it seems nothing is healthy anymore.
I agree. As a recently diagnosed pre-diabetic,all I actually know for sure is that I absolutely cannot eat is refined sugar and carbs… i’m spending a lot of time discerning just exactly what I can and cant eat and filling up a notebook with info. It isn’t easy to wade through all this info,it seems there’s a limited arena if what I CAN eat! And what I can eat seems to resemble the “Keto “ diet which seems to be scary and cause heart issues . So it all leaves me wondering if I am going to live the rest of my life on baked chicken or meat and a minimum of steamed plain greens.
The best food for diabetics is the best food for everybody. I've been eating ketogenic now for over two years and have never been healthier in my life.

My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article ruclips.net/user/postUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.
Many folks are diabetic but it can go undetected. It's good to visit a doctor!
I have type 1 diabetes since I was 2 years old and I am 60 now and I am legally blind from diabetic retinopathy and macular enema and I am getting e,e injections now , I have had them about 35 years ago and type 1 diabetes is no joke, so to all the people out there please try to keep your sugar in check and stay healthy as long as you can 😎👍💪
@@johnfloyd838 Totally 100% Agreed!

But I am not certain if one can get diabetes at such a tender age. Please I will like to know more on that*
pls take her to a dr. to find out.
Research non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. It's the results of the silent scream of a liver suffering overload.
Consult a doctor, not us
edit: Do not listen to me!
Wrong. Most doctors - at best, many doctors - know squat about physiology and nutrition. They don't accept the good studies. They preach the failed dogma of the FDA and the Harvard School of Public Health. It doesn't take an advanced degree to realize that carbs cause an insulin response, and that, in time, insulin resistance is the direct consequence. Look around. You might notice that lotsa folks are ailing from metabolic disorders.
Yes, you can get diabetes at any age. I'm a type one diabetic and was diagnosed around age 11, but most diabetics I've known were diagnosed earilier. Consult her physician if you have concerns.

@@canamforlife2275 Are you for real ??? The only bad food on the list I like is BBQ sauce. All of the stuff on this list is crap-tasting food. Yes, once in a few months I might get a small McD's fries, but the others are not worth the hour workout to burn them off. Why would you ever eat rice or drink a sports drink???
I was just diagnosed with diabetes 2 and I already have a heart condition. I'm starting each day with prayer and this video to keep me on the right track! Thanks!.
Thanks for this video. It's not too late i learned this food unhealthy for the body
Try 168 fasting and low carb diet. It works！I lost 9kg in 3 months and reduced medicine by 50%. Hypertension also improved, I almost can get rid of medicine.
ruclips.net/video/B5JvqfLb2r8/видео.html
Read The Obesity Code by Dr Jason Fung. An eye opener.
Prayers that'll save you
Heart condition probably caused by the last 10 years (at least) of building insulin resistance that the Drs. never check for. I have been there done that with a 3x bypass and never really got any healing after surgery until I went very low carb and high natural fat keto way of eating. 74 years old now and no meds for anything other than supplements. A1c in the low 5s, fatty liver is gone bp in the 110-120 range over the 60s and my hearts ejection fraction increased by 11% after the diet change from plant based to keto
I was diagnosed with diabetes a month ago, and I'm already sick of it.
I too was diagnosed about 3 weeks ago. And also sick of it.
Cut the carbs especially refined types.
It is just your new normal. That’s what I learned with my son. Find new patterns and people who will support the new lifestyle. Go ahead one day at a time. By doing this my son who doctors didnt really think would be alive at 26-28 is healthier than ever and turning 30 this year.
Is never too late change your diet hurry !
me too...i feel your pain! everything i think could be positive turns out negative and i'm finding conflicting information. i hate this!
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes almost two years ago. I eliminated everything on the list above, as well as some other things, and reversed my diabetes within a month. Since then I have lost 60 lbs and look and feel better than ever at age 49.
you sexy you !
Same age. Pre-type 2. My dad is type 2. I eat only fruits and veggies raw, and fresh. I do dip them in dressing, but don't slather them in it. I eat fish for dinner, usually, or another protein, but usually no sauce. I drink water all day long. I was drinking hot tea with honey, but I think it was still interfering with my blood sugar. I was drinking green tea, along with some other kinds, and mixing them. Tea bags, not pre-made. I put one spoonful of honey, and that was it, but I have since just gone to almost nothing but water to drink. I'm exercising more, and just feel better, overall.
Scott Cohen,
Happy for you. I’m trying to reverse it too. I hope I can have the same success as you. I’ve lost 7 pounds in just a few weeks. I exercise daily.
@@orsie200 one thing I do, when exercising....i don't do the same routine every day. I switch up times, techniques, and exercises. I think that may help avoid the plateau. At least, I hope so!
@Prakaash A not a clue, but not too bad, to begin with. Only been at it a few weeks.
Great video!
I'm type 2, and within three months of eating extremely cleanly and training hard in the gym, as well as hiking and cycling....I've almost reversed it after living with it for around 15 years. The visceral fat I have carried around my waist has almost all disappeared and I'm feeling absolutely fantastic!
My blood sugars are almost at non diabetic levels now, down to 45 mmol when they were 85 mmol twelve months ago, and between 53 mmol and 65 mmol between three and nine months ago. Looking forward to seeing my HBA1C results in another 3 months.
It is possible to eat like a king, just by not buying any toxic foods, and also not eating anything for 2 hours + before going to bed. It works wonders honestly.......just try it!
As per the video, kill the bread/wheat products, kill the white potato and white rice.
Only use healthy fats such as extra virgin olive oil, ghee, coconut oil instead of seed/vegetable oils (poison).
Avacados, green non-starchy vegetables such as brocolli, green beans and asparagus, leafy greens including spinich, lentils (yummy), make your own dressings as per this video, creme freche, sweet potato, oatmeal, natural honey as a sweetener (small amounts), nuts and grains. Chicken, fish or even vegan non meat burgers can be good (check the additives before buying) as well as eggs. All of which are full of protein and contain good fats.
Very small amounts of fruits, and not late in the day, and berries are your best bet ie strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and raspberries. Try a few of those with some creme freche or full fat greek yoghurt for a delicious dessert!! Bananas are tasty, however, not the best fruit for us diabetics, so try to have a few slices instead of a full one if you can.
Most alcoholic beverages such as beers and red wine are loaded with carbs and calories so should be consumed sparingly too.
Oh and this also goes hand in hand with high cholesterol! My levels are back to normal for the first time in years, and that's without any statins.
Hope this at least helps some of you out there, and good luck! 😁😁😁
Thank you 👊🏻
@I love you all,no tension I'm no doctor, and can only speak for what has been working for me. However, my guess would be stick to eating healthy and staying active as long as you can for the rest of your life for maximum longevity of results. Eat good, train hard, feel good, look good etc... 😁 PS I'm sure the odd cheat day once in a blue moon is ok once you have achieved your personal goals. The benefits are when we skip the evil treats on a daily basis, when we do eventually have them, they taste even better than before! haha
@I love you all,no tension You're welcome. Good luck!

Just found out at age 65 that I'm now type 2 after years of being cautioned that I was prediabetic, I wish I would have paid more attention to what I ate and educated myself on the do's and don'ts. Now I'm watching and reading everything I can on the subject. This video was one of the better ones so far.
I’d probably found out I wasn’t as healthy as I thought I was at 70. I was told I was prediabetic, too. If your biggest problem is diabetes and diet, maybe it is not hard reverse overall bad health … maybe you will be enjoying the journey
dietdoctor.com has all sorts of info and videos and a very good paid ( cheap ) membership for even more info. However just because you get rid of the 15 edibles in this video does not mean that you become diabetes free. Nope other things may be causing troubles like, insulin resistance. So yes some will benefit greatly by getting these 15 items off the menu but as I do not eat these 15 items and still have horrible readings on A1c's there are other problems at hand.
@@brucewmclaughlin9072 We are a perfect example here in my house. Both type 2 diabetics, but I am always eating at home. Just retired now, but even when I worked I took my lunch. He, on the other hand, will not take a lunch with him as he works as a cook and figures he can fix something there - which is never healthy. He also grabs candy bars and juice drinks or things like Snappier or the one that is half lemonade/half iced tea. Oh,, and he always comes home drinking a latte. His cereal this week is Captain Crunch. If I eat cereal, it is Honey Nut Cheerios. I, on the other hand, drink the one cup of coffee in the morning, 3-16.9 oz bottles of water, 1-4oz glass of orange or grapefruit juice a.m. and p.m. with medications, and I treat myself to one Caffeine-Free Diet Soda per day (not great for me, but this keeps me out of worse things to get a break from water). Bread I eat is homemade, and I replace sugar with honey and most often it is oatmeal bread. My snacks are a veggie, cheese, and a fruit serving. Sometimes I make boiled eggs.
He says he eats what I give him, but I assure you I did not buy that Captain Crunch, candy bars, or hot dogs he eats at work. Even when we have ice cream, the one I eat is a "light" ice cream. His is rocky road. I also never bought the pop tarts, Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches, etc. I do, however, take responsibility for seeing to it he takes all his medication.
So, he does not understand why my A1c runs 5.9 to 6.1, and at best when he actually did stick to what I made here at home, I have once gotten his to 6.9. Otherwise, can't get it down below ave 7.6, and the one he just had was 8.5. So, tonight the "fight" begins. It is Wed salad night. I will make a full dinner salad, which is filling. He will have a bowl of cereal after, his store-made latte with both sugar and powder creamer, a glass of half iced-tea half cran-grape juice, and then after I fall asleep something I know nothing of. I have to try to stop some of this down. He is peeing constantly right now, his neuropathy is worsening, as is his eyesight. I have a syndrome called Charcot-Marie-Tooth which, so far, has resulted in full loss of structure of left foot, worsening deformity of rt foot, and both hands, as well as diaphragmatic spams which make breathing and swallowing difficult, but I remain fully responsible for the exercise life of my Siberian huskies. So, what I am telling you is part of all this, for most of us, is what we put into it!!
@@duskahenry791 Kevin, we all wish that we had taken better care of our diets. Just know that you can beat diabetes and in so doing by adopting the new car free diet, you will enjoy good health again. Your doctor will be pleased that you decided to investigate how to get rid of this dreadful disease. So take heart and persist to not eat any sweets or foodstuffs that have carbs in them.
Regards

my dr cautioned me but i didnt pay attention. i ballooned up 230 lbs and i am 5 ' 2". now i am on metformin and not doing that well. if i could have just listened..my wt is back down to 148 but i still need to lose 20 more lbs.
My glucose was measured at 266. My doctor wanted to put me on medication.
I begged him not to, I’ll turn it around.
He gave me three months, then a blood screening.
I cut sugar and exercised , went thru the painful withdrawal.
In three months, measured 115 , fatty liver was gone.
Dropped lots of weight, waist size 42 to a 36 in three months.
Food… from the ground to your mouth….. protein and onions and peppers
Beans, fresh salads, and good amounts of butter. Your body and brain will stop feeding on sugar and start feeding on protein and fat.
Wow that's amazing. Well done. I'm trying to do the same. I 'm on my 22nd day. Hard at first but it's getting easier with time. I'm prediabetic. Trying to reverse it. Lost 7 pounds so far.
@@lucyclink9163I was pre-diabetic also for the past two years. I did an entire change in my diet and drank more water. Each time I went to the doc my AC1 went down this last visit 12/19/23 did my blood work and my AC1 is now 5.6. 🎉🎉 Trying my best to at stay at this number.
You need to check not only the sugar content but carbs as well.
Carbs when consumed are sugars
Always count your carbs 😎👍
This was one of the most honest commentry on how to avoid process sugars and not to become a diabetic may God bless you
Yes it sounds good but there are so many other factors in diabetes to make your life less than quality. Insulin resistance is just one of them.
I have been a type 1 diabetic for over 30 years. Most diabetics count carbohydrates. Just about everything you eat turns into glucose once it hit your stomach, with a few exceptions. You have to have a balance in your diet or you will feel deprived. Nothing should be off limits. Enjoy food, just watch the amount and what it does to your sugar levels. Test your glucose often throughout the day. That really is the key.
not true; some carbs are good carbs
I have been fighting back against diabetes 2 for a few months. A friend told me; after I described what I was going through, it sounded like my body was shutting down and I was near death. I did a 180* turn a round in my diet and going from over 600 points, to under 120; and getting into the 70's to 90's pretty regularly on all three pre-mealtime meter readings. I'm trying to regulate the swelling in my feet with herbs; but at least my toes aren't turning black anymore. I also quite waking up in the middle of the night starving and I have lost a few pounds. About 20 lbs from a year ago. No more buffets and most of what this video covered. MK
Good job!
I have got diabetes 2 and I can honestly say it doesn't bother me all at all doesn't effect my life one bit except having to be careful what I eat. Never had a bad report after having a blood test so I must be doing something right.

@@hmpz36911 thanks. I will look into it.
I've been type 2 for over 15yrs. I am now at pre diabetic levels because I don't over do it. I do admit that I will never give up my Heinz Ketchup but use it in Moderation. An excellent substitute for soft drinks is Water. Got a sweet tooth have about 20 grapes. I also bake my own bread, 3 ingredients, whole grain flour, water and yeast. You do have to add 1tablespoon of sugar to activate the yeast. Don't torment yourself and try to quit cold turkey, it's gradual. Moderation, Moderation and Moderation is the key to enable you to have that occasional pasta dinner or fruit juice just don't get that mentality that it's not that much this time. Are you so weak, No you're not.
@E EE Hi the bread recipe is quite simple. 6 cups King Arthur Flour, best flour because it is higher in protein. Yeast : 1 1/4 tablespoon, and approx 2 cups warm tap water. Take 1 cup water and 2 tablespoon sugar, needed to activate the yeast mix all 3 set aside and let the yeast get foamy, 15-20min . Place flour in mixer, start mixer and add all water and yeast. For moister bread add some olive oil about 1/4 cup. If you are not watching calories add a melted stick of butter. As bread mixes gradually add remaining water. When bread forms a ball in the mixer it's ready. Remove bread, kneed dough for 3-5 min set aside in a bowl. Dough will 2X in size. Deflate dough then form desired loafs let it rise again, approx 1hr .350* preheated oven. Bake, cool off and enjoy 😀🍞✌
@E EE Hi again, it will not be as soft as store bought bread but the addition of your favorite flavorings, spices, cooked or raw veggies ect. Even cheeses. Stay healthy, stay alive! Good Luck, God Bless
Use almond flour instead of whole grain for bread 🍞. Or mix both
Well said thanks so much for your inspiring advices, you’re a model for the millions of pre diabetics 💕
@@VanessadelasAlas Hello Vanessa , I don't understand your comment. Hope you don't have diabetes

Thank you so much for this! Need to share it with my family too!!
I had the onset of diabetes for 20 years and changed my diet in the beginning. It was only when I hurt my back and couldn't physically work anymore I became a diabetic. Exercise speaks volumes also.
Hello Kelbre........
I'm Type 1 diabetic (43 yrs) and I learned to just read the nutrition labels when I'm grocery shopping. I was taught about hidden sugars in food when I was in my late teens.
If it has a label of ingredients, don't eat it.
Unlike type 2 diabetes, you are not responsible for this illness. You were born with a body unable to provide enough insulin after meals. I had a class mate with this illness : she had to monitor her blood before each meal and before taking her insulin shot. It's just unfair because many others get sick because of their poor food choices.
I’ve been a Type1 for over fifty years, and I’m in better shape then my peers because I watch what I eat. It wasn’t always fun, but it was healthy.
The sugar aisle, the starch aisle, the salt aisle, the cholesterol fridges ... meanwhile, pot barley is in a corner at $1.49 a bag.
I am type 2. I use to weigh at 89 kgs. After 8 months of medication, exercise, diet am now able to control my sugar level and I weigh now 66 kgs.
High intensity training and total removal of carbohydrates from my diet has really helped. There are certain fruits also not good for diabetes like bananas for example unless taken in very little amount. Parboiled rice is also a very good option besides brown rice. Good luck to my fellow diabetics out there. You can do it!
@@freethinker7919 👍
@@freethinker7919 thanks, bro. Will look it up. Wow! Awesome achievement. Keep at it.

What is par boiled rice.
Just avoid these: white flour, processed sugar, soda, can/bottle fruit juice, french fries or potato chips, pizza. Just read a label. Not that hard, but hard to resist.

and use southern style bbq sauces made at home , mustard vinegar and horseradish are all good for diabetics

Spot on with this knowledge, I had a big problem with type2 for years and was told by our local specialist all of this information and I Followed these guides and I now am pill free and my sugar values are in the middle of the recommended blood numbers. I hope people listen. As I walk into all grocery stores I look around and all I see is displayed junk food everywhere, I also notice people leaving the store with large amounts of junk in the cart and the person pushing the cart just doesn’t get the danger. Thanks. PS I was 240 lbs and now 185.
As a type two diabetic, I cut my A1C down from 8.8 to 6 by following the recommendations of this excellent video. But I also eliminated grains, and that includes whole wheat grains.
, 3rd
Paul, T2 sufferers need to eliminate any edible product if it contains carbohydrate. It is difficult but doable and once the food list represents items with less than 1%, the benefits of the intermittent fasting kick in big time. Also eat a tablespoon of coconut oil fat per day to assist energy levels and manage hunger pangs. The oil is in liquid state on the supermarket shelves. Put and keep it in the fridge to solidify. NOT IN THE FREEZER. Eat 1xtablespoonful when required.
I'm a type1 diabetic, have been for years. I was never given the foods above and I don't desire them at all. If you can eliminate the rubbish, you can transform your health, and hopefully put these large greedy companies that are killing you out of business.
@ssmatsusaka Hi. I think they never included what's considered the obvious culprits. May I ask, if you don't monitor your food do you have to take tablets/Insulin?
@Bradley Short Nope.
As a physician of 36 years, this video is somewhat good. Basically, diabetics, hypertensive (high blood pressure) and others should eat protein, fats (yes fats), low to no carbohydrate veggies especially dark green leafy (except on blood clotting RX). Try doing the Ketogenic or KETO diet for 60 days. I bet your BP and glucose go down. Maybe even you wont need RX or as many.
A little over a year ago type 2 almost killed me. Blood sugar shot up to well over 1000, 3 days in a coma, pumped full of insulin. A week and a half in the hospital. About a month or so later, I discovered the ketogenic diet, a month or so after that I got off the insulin and have been med free ever since. We need more doctors, like you, to get on board with this.
Dr Clark,
Re: Diabetes and food
Thank you for your comments relative to what diabetics should eat in order to best assist the eradication of T1/T2. Please note that in your short comment you have imparted more information than I received at the consultation where I learned that I was confirmed as having type 2 diabetes.
How simple and less stressful would it be if the medical services had a simple pamphlet at hand to give to new diabetics as a guide to their diet, what foodstuffs to not eat and exercise regimes?
There are still far too many diabetics who eat carbohydrate not knowing they should not. There are too many of us who have been prescribed the wrong medications.
Knowledge of the A - Z detailing how to combat the disease through consuming the correct foodstuffs and also to list the foods we have to avoid if we are to succeed in our personal battles against this dreaded disease which needlessly kills too many people around the world.
The more we learn about this disease, the more armed we can be from the start to ensure each of us eradicates diabetes & regains our health to once again lead our lives to the full.

Not diabetic ,well I was border line about 40 years ago .I changed my diet and started exercising more
Great, unless you are handicapped like me and got diabetes due to inactivity and medicine so still a good video.
Q
i was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 10 years ago and now suffer from severe diabetic neuropathy because i had such a high A1c. i did not have medical insurance for a lot of years and when i finally got my A1c checked it was 16.9! my doctor did not know why i was not in a diabetic coma.after a lot of years i have finally gotten it down to between 6.0 and 7.0
Wow!
Thank you for this video , I ' ve been struggling with type 2 and got to the point I realize I am the only one that can start to recover by taking care of myself it starts with this video and I thank you . My weight is 380 lbs will let you know my progress
This just sound like avoiding these substances and getting on a healthy diet...... but also a lifestyle change is in order.......
Very informative and frightening too. Make us aware and try to resist. Thank you
Basically, stay out of the main grocery aisle & stick to fresh or frozen. Just have to learn to cook.

Hello Homestead......
* *Allow me to weigh in* * - I'm 20 years US Navy (semi-retired). *"Semi"* = too young to sit on the porch, twiddling my thumbs. My sugar has never been high. For my coffee, I substitute sugar with pure maple syrup (locally sourced, for authenticity). Yes, I know I know......this is still in the 'sugar' family. - Another no-no are cakes, desserts, ho-ho's, dingle snacks, Hostess cakes....etc. I've never eaten them (after high school, that is).
- *"Carbs can convert to sugar and be harmful"* - Yes, so I exercise every other day by running 4-8 miles. A runners high is *AMAZING!* I'm telling you this from experience.
- Live long and prosper, friends!
At 65, had run, swum, cycled huge distances by most standards except pro athletes. Never smoked, drank very little alcohol, no other drugs, my diet ticked all the right boxes. Massive heart attack April 2020, did all the rehab and back to cycling and fast long walks. Pre-diabetes diagnosed spring 2021. It's genetic up to a point.
On PDB diagnosis got and applied Dr Michael Mosley's 8-Week Blood Sugar Diet and recipe book. Lost 35lbs/16kg in 12 weeks. I'd been putting on 2mm a year for 45 years = 3½ inches of belly fat due to the high quality bread, peanut butter, quality cheese, or quality honey after the exercise. Carbs are bad. Keep to absolute minimum. Natural level of glucose in blood is 2 teaspoons. Body not designed to handle the mega infusions our modern, still approved high carb diets pump into our bodies.
Feel great now and inspired by gold medallist woman keirin at Tokyo Olympics. She had heart attack in 2015, stent, won one of most cardio intensive events in sport. I'm back to 120 deep pushups in batches of 5 with 60 second rest
Thanks for setting the right tone on condemning the food processing industry. Processed foods = junk, and it's often more expensive than ordinary healthy foods.
From the list of 15 types of food you learned about here conduct a little test. Next time you go to the grocery store notice how much shelf space is devoted to these types of food. Whole aisles of sugary sodas, potato chip and snack type foods, cookies, candy, fruit juices, and baked goods. It's a lot of the shelf space. And it's bad for you and good for the grocery store and processed food manufacturers profit margins.
For beginners eat in moderation or pottion control until you get used to avoiding all unhealthy sugar loaded food. A glucometer will help too for monitoring blood sugar
Thanks! I definitely need that advice.
Cool
To aid my portion control I bought some smaller plates. I'm sure dinner plates were smaller when I was young. They seem to have expanded along with our waistlines.
Changed my eating habits and reversed my type 2 diabetes along with a huge weight loss two years ago.
Praveen Sriram, WTG!
Praveen Sriram, sorry - it means “Way To Go”.
What do you normally eat? Could you give us an example?
M.P., grilled salmon and cod, fresh veggies, fresh fruits, peanut butter, homemade yogurt for breakfast, hard boiled eggs for bedtime snacks, nuts, chicken, turkey burgers, basically healthy food choices. No white rice, very little pasta or potatoes, no unhealthy snacks and no sweets/unhealthy desserts. I ate foods that helped lower my blood sugar and cholesterol. Also watch your fats as well as carbs and sugar grams in foods. It’s pretty easy once you’ve decided to take control and eat healthy. We all know the wrong things we eat that causes weight gain/obesity and diabetes. Good luck!

Prayers for my Grandson Travis who is in his last year of Medical School of Wisconsin and is having 2 Important tests on Monday.🙏🏽🙏🏽

How did your grandson do?
I’m going have my grandson watch this. He’s been T1 since he was 4. No one tried to educate him about his diet. When I got him in my custody, I started right away. Too much of any good food is bad. Pasta, potatoes, bagels, pretzels are horrid. Counter balance these foods with fresh fruits and vegetables. Weigh in your foods and snacks. Last, I tell him to read the label set a better table. He’s about to be 13 and hitting the sugar craving.

@@savi7493 You are correct absolutely!!🇨🇦😀

A sane piece of advice for packed foods is, "If it has an ingredient you cannot pronounce, avoid it".
If that were the case, I would starve, lol.
I agree, but I admit that I always have problems with "acai". I can't tell you the dozens of times I've looked it up on google to see how it's pronounced, and still can't remember how to pronounce it.
@@ficialintelligence1869 keep quiet,don't read out loud.
No You need to find spice and fresh fruit will taste great and give your body a fighting chance to change the damage done.
You probably couldn't pronounce most of the scientific names for most ingredients, that's an ignorant statement.
It's amazing how much stuff we used to call "junk food" is actually high carbohydrate food. I eliminated most of the foods on this list and cut my A1C in half after eliminating insulin. If I knew what I know now I could have drastically cut my blood sugar in just 3 or 4 days. It's not like losing weight which often takes months (after that initial 5 pounds which seems so easy). Some the things that you may consider eating: olive oil, eggs, steak, pork, salmon, sausage, bacon (no added sugar!), roasted chicken, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussel sprouts, asparagus and cabbage. Note how few processed foods are on this list. So there are foods that you can actually eat. Everyone is different, so you have to learn what is right for you. Insulin is often great for Type 1 diabetics (I'm Type II, and have no need for a fat storage hormone). Be guided by your blood sugar meter.
Add to your list walnuts. They are the steak of nuts as they are high in protein. And they keep your hair and nails so healthy!
The biggest problem I have with videos like this one is that there is still this very unhealthy idea to push whole grains onto diabetics when many diabetics simply can't tolerate them any better than the same products made with white flour and starches. Whole grain rice still has 46g of carbs per serving, and anyone with even moderate insulin resistance will see their blood sugar spike. Same with a sweet potatoes.
I've just now seen your video and it's great for the reason that you warn us against the huge threat of sugar in many foods. Thank you so much

The most convenient way to not eat all these bad foods? Have a sulphite allergy. Almost all foods listed here (excluding white bread/pasta) would give me a migraine so bad I'm literally bed ridden for days at a time. Makes it really easy to avoid processed food and forces you to cook your own, healthier versions of everything.
Iwas so addicted to soda. Yes addicted! I've been soda free for over 3 years. It wasn't easy. I wasn't only addicted to the sugar, but the carbon too.
The best thing I ever did!
same here and most of my weight loss as came from me not drinking soda and i love rice soo i had stopped eating it for a while but i went back to eating it but very little of it.
@@dredaylarue 1/2 cup serving of cooked rice should be fine.
I love soda too. I am trying to lose weight and keep my sugar low. I found a flavored water soda callled "Ice" it is delicous. You should try it. no sugar, natural.
You really eat carbon?
Need the buzz? Drink mineral water like Vichy.
I'm type 2. I also have IBS. Grains and fresh veggies are my main triggers. It's hard to balance my foods.
Sounds like you should look into the carnivore diet
Same
I’m allergic to some. fresh vegetables and fruits. Been trying to carnivore diet.
@@robertnegron9706 I'm almost a carnivore this very reason, and it's a good one. I'm almost allergic to most vegetables, additives and preservatives etc. to everything that comes in a package so my limit is fresh food. Once you get used to it it's worth it. The only thing I can't stop consuming is instant coffee with cream. Milk even effects me. I've been this way now for forty years but only this bad for twenty five years. I'm healthier now than I have been for most of my life, I'm now seventy.
As far as your health is concerned you can be part of the problem or part of the solution. Choose a healthy life!

Any ingredient that ends in OSE is a Sugar.
Lol
Sugar alcohols are supposed to be safe, but even in small amounts, I got diarrhea and upset stomach. I even ended up with pancreatitis and had my gallbladder out after eating some fake crab and ice cream with sorbitol in it. It's an accumulative effect. I tried some unsweetened tea that had monkfruit and discovered it was erythritol which also gave me diarrhea at the same restaurant I ate at a diner 2x. The first was a salmon-crab sandwich. Since I read labels now and ask if the crab is real or what is in the food, I have had no more diarrhea or upset stomach. My dogs and I both have to avoid xylitol. Bali and sf Vitamin Water both include erythritol and so will many new ice creams.
Potatoes are high glycemic when they're eaten hot. When you let them cool down, they become what's known as a 'Resistant Starch' and won't spike your blood sugar. Same thing happens to white rice. Brown rice is actually worse for you than white rice as it contains even higher levels of arsenic.
These should be avoided pretty much by everybody, not just diabetics. These are not foods, and too much of them puts everyone's health at risk.
Its just about discipline and control on foods loaded with sugar, i know its addictive but health is very important.
Control mouth
When you do without you learn to ignore the cravings. Think of your goal. Also cut back on portion size. I eat a Keto diet and cut back on portions. I can no longer stuff myself as I could years ago. 1/2 way through a meal and I'm calling quits because my stomach can't hold it.
Hello Myra......
Thank you so very much for this video. I am pre-diabetic and I have found this very interesting. I look forward to even more information that you have to offer or recipes.
I just found out I'm pre also. What have you been doing about it? I have so much anxiety because it seems like you can't eat anything even foods that are good for you is not really good
I was surprise by some of these enlightening revelations. Thanks for the knowledge.
Dummy
Thank you! I just learned that I have developed type 2 diabetes, and I'm so angry - at myself, and at doctors who never mentioned it. Now I've got to make changes.
Thanks for this 'back to reality' video. I liked this video mainly because it directs me back to what I have to do to control my type 2 diabetes. Facing reality is hard and 20 years ago I did not even think about diabetes nor was I concerned. Then 10 years ago I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and I was given the facts to the max. This video on the 15 foods to avoid is so hard to do mainly because of the cravings I have for junk food but I keep watching this video to remind me that this is what's happening to my body if I don't change my food intake. Best video ever for diabetics. 😥😀😕
Not even close to the best video ever for diabetics. There are several things wrong in this video.
1. For instance, eating whole grains. Nope. A diabetic's body can't really tell the difference between simple carbs and complex carbs. Ultimately, all of it breaks down into glucose (except fiber). The problem is that the blood cells become resistant to storing that glucose, which causes your pancreas to overproduce insulin. Hence, your blood sugar spikes. Don't switch white rice with whole grain rice. Cut out all rice altogether. Use riced cauliflower instead. Same with bread. Whole grain bread can spike blood sugar just as badly as white bread. Get rid of it. Find a substitute like using egg wraps instead.
2. They were absolutely insane to suggest replacing regular potatoes with sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are incredibly high in carbohydrates. It's no safer to eat than a regular potato. Any health expert worth their salt would never tell a diabetic to eat a sweet potato.
3. Store bought, bottled salad dressings, like ranch and blue cheese, actually doesn't have a lot of carbs in them. They are actually quite safe to eat as long as you don't drown your salad in them. They also make a nice vegetable dip. Never has a moderate amount of store bought ranch or blue cheese dressing ever spiked my blood sugar. In fact, it hardly even effects my blood sugar at all.
Videos like this are harmful because they are based on outdated nutritional information. A diabetic shouldn't be trying to control their diabetes, they should be trying to reverse it. You can listen to them, or you can listen to me, someone who actually did reverse his diabetes. I'm a type 2 diabetic. At my worst, my A1C was at 7.6. I now have an A1C of 5.1. 5.1 isn't just controlling diabetes, that's a complete reversal. My blood glucose is at a normal, non-diabetic level. And I will be up front with you, that didn't happen until I cut grains out of my diet.

I agree with every word you say, i'm into this DB, Resistance ,you name it they don't even know for sure what i am type 1 or 2, 4 years was 2 then they thre away the metformin and then the small amts of insulin, I have to practically starve myself to keep my numbers low. I track every shot,everycouple hours, the dinget on CGM goes off even if im not going high, if i dont eat it goes high, can't win for losing. People haven"t a clue how hard it is to live with your spouse and try to be normal. NexusNine feel free to contact me,if you have any other tips not mentioned here. This doesn't tell me anything I didn't already know. God Bless, Joy
Wow, I found that information very very interesting. Very well explained to understand clearly. I’m in a position we’re my sugar levels are high and the doctor is quick to want to put me in medication. Doctor is giving me a chance to reduce my levels. So I’m researching each day. This programmer I’ve found very useful and made me much clearer of what chances I need to make. I’m determined that mediation is not going to be my life on this health issue. So I’m on it and finding it very interesting and also quite sad at how I was eating before. I’ve subscribed to the channel and will continue to watch to keep me on track. 👍🏽👍🏽
For years (type 1 diabetic since 1970) I ate whole-grain everything. I’d steam grains of whole rye or wheat and eat them instead of pasta. They spiked my blood sugar almost as much as ordinary pasta did.
Don’t think that whole grain will make much difference. It’s held in reverence by various people, and one can grow to tolerate or even like the flavor and texture, but in my experience it’s only marginally better than ordinary refined sources of starch.
Try almond flour for baking 🍞 bread
True, but it has nutritious components for normal peep.
The grains we have now are not the wholesome grains our great-grandparents ate. Thank Monsanto.
Recently diagnosed with Type 2 in January. Blood sugar was all over the place, but I got it under control now. Information like this helps.
I am having trouble getting mine under control I have been intermitting fasting for a year in August don't eat after 6 still not doing as well as I could I can't give up APPLES
@@patriciasalyers9875 I intermittent fast as well. Game changer for me
Eating healthy is easier said than done. I am a Canadian, I have 6 kid's, and am a type 2 diabetic. The food prices in Canada are rediculously high, especially in the last 2 years, and we are told it is only going to get worse. Organic food is completely out of my price range.
I feel for you, I am a pure foodie, I love my food. read my comment above, you will see how I feel about this article. It is good to a point, but like with your situation on expensive food up there, I feel for you on not being able to eat better.
It does not have to be 'organic' it needs to be 'unprocessed'. Simple guide: when at the supermarket, avoid the centre isles, they are full of industrially created, refined and chemically processed foodstuffs. Go to the isles on each side of the stores. There you will find plants and animals to eat, like your ancestors ate for millions of years. Eat plants and animals and you will be healthy. If you do have to supplement with the packaged stuff from the centre isles eg. for flavour, look at the labels. Avoid sugars, refined carbohydrates and artificial oils.
This natural food is cheaper by bulk/mass than the processed stuff. You will save money by eating unprocessed plants and animals. 'Animals' includes fish and birds. It's really very simple, and beneficial.
Buy whole foods and prepare everything yourself. There are lots of organic or chemical free fruits and veggies available by shopping locally !!
There's really nothing wrong with non-organic food, it's still better than packaged junk.
@@valerielutter7921
I don't by packaged junk.
When comes to non organic some is worse than others.
Some GMO. to produce bt toxins. Some are overly sprayed with chemicals. I avoid them.
Mainly fruit that isn't peeled and whole grain products.
Wherever possible i either buy locally from people i know aren't using chemical sprays. Or i buy organic. Much of my vegetables i grow myself.
I avoid chemicals whenever possible !!
I really enjoyed learning about the worst foods. I drink the sugar-free fruit flavored drinks. It's hard eating boring foods instead of the food that tastes good.
Hello Sandra......
Having been a lifetime addict to sugar sodas and sugar itself, I have now been off soda for several years, and have been sugar-free for over 2 years now. I promise you, Sandra, that if you will give it 100% and get off sugar, your body will actually start enjoying the stuff that it currently finds "boring". When you kick the sugar, your body starts tasting the actual sugar in fruits, nuts, and even crazy things like celery. I actually like celery, but after about a year of being sugar-free, I took a bite of a stick of celery and it actually had a little bit of sweet taste. I had never noticed that in my entire life until that moment. I have to throw in here though that it is super important to be careful not to go the route of sweeteners that contain aspartame. The sweetener I use is stevia. It definitely took some getting used to, and all Stevia is not manufactured the same. It took a couple of tries to find one that suited my taste, but it is a 100% natural sweetener, and it does not have the neurotoxins that so many of the other common sugar substitutes have. Anyway, if you choose to do it, you will be amazed. I never ever thought I would be free of soda and free of sugar. It's still amazes me!
I am pre diabetic and this video offers great guidance to me
The doctors said I have a risk of diabetes so I’m gonna try to block these food more specifically less salt and sugar
Get a specialist. General practitioners know very little about nutrition. Salt isnt evil. Your body wont use other minerals without it.
@@michaelc9311 what Michael said.
ononna rimi
Oils are also a no-no!
Salt is necessary.
If you have to, sell you soul to the deity of your choice to avoid getting full blown type 2. Your life will never be the same if you get it, take it from me. Best case scenario, it's a slow death from 1000 cuts...worst case scenario, they start chopping your toes, feet and legs off, or you get heart disease/have a heart attack, go blind, etc. Best part about it is that the "standard" treatment here in the US guarantees that the disease will progress. I could go on and on, but hopefully I'm scaring the sh** out of you to do whatever you need to. In all sincerity, good luck!
An eye-opening video. Should be viewed by every diabetic and taken to heart and practice.
Absolutely not. There is a lot of misinformation in this video surrounding whole grains. Most diabetics can't eat grains without having blood sugar spikes. The diet presented in this video is the standard diet most dietitians put their clients on to manage diabetes. Problem is, the success rate for this diet is actually kind of low because it's not designed to reverse diabetes; it's designed only to manage it. Most diabetics will remain in prediabetic or low diabetic range, often having to continue medication as well. And to be frank, it doesn't have to be that way. At all. Type 2 diabetes can absolutely be reversed. I would know because I did it. I reversed my diabetes. A1C dropped from 7.6 to 5.1. And guess what? Whole grains had to go. Sweet potatoes had to go too. They aren't any safer than a regular potato. Less carbs? Yes. Still packed full of carbs, though.
@@NexusNine Thank you for your comments and sharing your experience. As a vegetarian (NOT a Vegan - I still have dairy products like butter and milk) my diet choices are restricted. I cannot eat meat. If I set aside grains all I have to left to consume are vegetables and fruits. So what I try to do is consume those grains which have low glycemic index such as oats, quinoa, rye, millets and brown rice. By consuming these and taking my diabetes medication I am able to manage although my sugars levels are definitely not as healthy as I would like.
@@lgopalakrishnan3181 I hope you respond back to this, because I really want to have a legitimate and candid conversations with you. It's your life and you live it as you please, but please consider what I'm going to say in this message.
I'm not going to lie, I know vegans and vegetarians who have had to change to an omnivore diet and reintroduce meat into their meals for health reasons. Equally, I also know people who have controlled their diabetes on a plant-based diet, but do so understanding that they have a very limited pallet of what they can eat. They don't have a lot of variety in their diet, and they are okay with that. But it doesn't look like you are okay with such a limited diet.
To be flat, grains have to go, my friend. They are what's keeping you diabetic and on medication. You've unfortunately fallen into the same trap that all of us fall into on our diabetic journey. I promise you, I have fallen into this trap myself, and nothing good comes from grains in a diabetic body.
Oats are no good. One serving is 60 net grams of carbs. Brown rice is 45g of net carbs. Quinoa has 39g of net carbs per serving. Millet has 39g. These are what's keeping you diabetic. None of them are diabetic safe. Nor are the recommended carb limits that are prescribed by some dietitians. Many dietitians continue to push the idea that complex carbs are safer and better to eat than simple carbs, which is true but also untrue. Safer, yes. But safe in general? No. Complex carbs still break down in the body as glucose. In an insulin resistant individual, it doesn't much matter what kind of carb is breaking down into glucose in their body, the problem is that their blood cells are resistant to storing that glucose as fat and energy, so the pancreas overproduces insulin to compensate. Don't live and breathe by the glycemic index. Carb tracking is far more complex than that.
I don't know your reasons for being a vegetarian, whether you can't eat meat for health reasons, or whether it's just that you feel that you have a moral obligation to not eat meat. I get it if it's a feeling of moral obligation, but you're going to have to ask yourself if remaining a vegetarian is worth undermining your own personal health. Because meat really is a major part of a healthy diet. Like I said, you absolutely can control your diabetes on a vegetarian diet, but you have to be willing to live with a very limited number of food choices. Because I promise you, if you don't drop the grains, you're never going to reverse your diabetes, and you're never going to get off your medication. That will likely lead to more insulin resistance, putting more strain on the pancreas. That could then lead to your pancreas shutting down altogether, which you'll then find yourself on daily or weekly insulin injections for the rest of your life. I was on the verge of all of this myself until I realized that grains and oats had to go. Now my blood glucose is in the non-diabetic range and completely normal.
If you want to reverse your diabetes, you're going to have to make a choice. Either you're going to have to live with a very limited diet to maintain your vegetarian lifestyle, or you're going to have accept that meat may be a necessity in your diet now. But if you change nothing and keep packing in all of those high carb grains for the sake of food variety, nothing is going to improve.
Like I said, I just want to be candid with you. I want to see you beat this.
@@NexusNine First let me thank you for taking the trouble to explain and instruct. I am a vegetarian both by family background and personal inclination. I have read what you wrote about grains and that continuing to eat them will only result in a continued journey on the diabetes path. You also mentioned that giving up grains will leave me with very few choices of diet. In that case I must explore those few choices as well as I can. Perhaps I can bring myself to the point of giving up grains altogether. Perhaps I can reduce grain intake to a bare minimum and increasingly supplant this with other food choices. However, taking to meat is a decided NO for me. I will be looking into what I can do to stay vegetarian and alive. Once again many thanks! :)
@@lgopalakrishnan3181 I'm not going to lie to you, it's not going to be easy to maintain a lower carb diet on a vegetarian diet. It can be done, and I hope you can pull it off.
I'm a meat eater, but I can still give you some advice to help you drop those grains from your diet and stick to your vegetarian stance.
1. PASTA. You can replace whole grain pasta noodles with shirataki noodles instead. Shirataki noodles are plant based noodles made from konjac roots. They contain about 4g of fiber per package, and only 2g of net carbs. Net carbs is the amount of carbs a food has after subtracting fiber from the total carb count. Fiber doesn't break down into glucose, so it has little to no affect on blood sugar. Shirataki noodles having only 2g of net carbs makes it a perfect alternative to grain noodles which has over 30g of net carbs in them.
Or you can use zucchini noodles. They have about 4g of fiber with 4g of net carbs per package, or just 1g of net carbs for a single serving.
I use both shirataki and zucchini noodles to make all of my pasta dishes. I don't miss traditional noodles at all.
2. RICE. Brown rice is packed full of carbs and far less fiber than most people realize. Just 1/4 cup of brown rice is about 30g of net carbs. I'm willing to bet you eat more than just 1/4 cup of rice with your meals. Nobody eats that little bit of rice in one sitting. Meanwhile, cauliflower rice is also plant based, but 1 full cup contains the same 2g of fiber that brown rice has, while only containing about 3.5g of net carbs. You get a larger serving with the cauliflower rice and get a better nutritional value out of it as well. And it's vegetarian friendly.
I make all of my rice dishes with cauliflower rice. I don't miss brown rice whatsoever.
3. BREAD. This one you're a little stuck on. Most low carb and keto breads are made with egg whites, which is off limits on your vegetarian diet. I use egg white wraps to make sandwich wraps, quesadillas, quesadilla pizzas, tacos, stuffed spinach cheesy bread, and so on. But on a vegetarian diet, there are very little options for bread replacement. You can try Mission's Carb Balance Wraps, which have a lot of fiber, but the fiber is highly altered and blood sugar can still spike. I never suggest eating more than one on any given day. You may actually just have to give up bread.
I don't suggest trying to just simply cut back on the grains. Carbs are already high in serving sizes that are already rather small. Does it sound sustainable to cut 1/4 cup of brown rice in half while still consuming 15g of carbs? You're getting a lot of carbs and walking away hungry. Again, why not eat a full cup of cauliflower rice and get better nutritional values?
Now does that mean never, ever eat grains or higher carb foods? No. A small treat once in a while won't hurt. I allow myself a very small portion of potato salad every year for Christmas dinner. It just means that far more often than not, grains and starchy foods cannot be a part of the diet.
I was diagnosed prediabetic. It runs on both sides of my family.
I started replacing the white rice with brown. Cut out all sugary drinks. I’m following your list what not to eat. If I don’t buy it, my family won’t eat it. Just used up what I had in my kitchen and replaced everything slowly. And that has worked for me and it was easy to do.
Awesome. Thanks for sharing!!
Basmati rice is good for diabetics. Then quinoa and bulgar wheat are great alternatives to rice.
Brown rice is not a healthy option due to the husk
Recently diagnosed with PRE type 2 diabetes, I have changed my diet and eating mostly fresh fruit. I'm hungry all the time. 63 years old and very worried about the PRE type 2 diabetes diagnosis.
Michael, England UK 🇬🇧
Eating mostly fruit is not going to do it for you, Michael. You should be eating more protein and vegetables than fruit. Take a look at serving sizes for your protein, and make sure that you're getting at least 20 grams at every meal. Veggies should be non-starchy ones, so leafy greens, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, beets, salad, like that. If you're going to eat fruit, it should be in moderation, and you really should stick to citrus and berries because they have the most fiber.
Presentation was very informative and will continue live as it is taught today. thank you
Thank you for an honest informative video filled with the information we all need to hear. I was just diagosed with the adult 2 diabetis and even though being careful eating good foods is a right thing to so we must know the real reasons about some of our wrong choices. Your video makes me more aware of the foods to stay away from and how not to fall for the gimmics called nutritional.
All these true and very useful to diabetic patients.

You are absolutely right. It is time to sue these health endangering companies as tabacco companies have been sued for smoking. It is time to start now as it is rather late for the health of countless people.

I stopped drinking feel much better and my sugar levels fell eat a lot of fish and chicken instead of pies etc you wouldn't believe how much sugar is in alcohol
There is 0 sugar in alcohol. The sugar has been converted into alcohol.
The problem is the added or unfermented sugar.
@@herbbowler2461 well whatever it is I feel miles better for changing my diet and stopping drinking doctor said he could see the point in my results where I made the change
@@pauldavies8638
Good for you.
I am not saying you should drink. However if you choose to. Choose something without added sugar. Such as whiskey and ice. Or dry wine. Or dark ale.
Our bodies just get rid of alcohol. It doesn't use it or store it.
However if you have any liver problems it is best to abstain. Refined sugar is more of a burden than alcohol.
A little raw honey is ok.
Having been Type 1 for 53 years I am pleased to say that I rarely eat any of these foods. I do eat Bulgar Rice but never been sure if that is the same as Brown Rice or what!
Rice is a carbohydrate regardless of it's form which converts too sugars.
@@silent_whispers319 Yes I know, but which type of rice is the healthiest?
@@Georgestella100 , pick the rice that hasn't been refined, meaning it still has it's husk such as; brown rice. You only need a 1/2 to 1 cups a day too meet your daily grains requirement. This depends on your age, and activity level.
Cut the white Bread, pasta, rice and beans from my diet a few years ago. Lost 23 lbs. I’ve gained 5 back, but I’ve maintained this type of eating lifestyle for the most part since. Pretty sure I can lose another 10-15 (bring me down to 175) if I was a little more strict. But carbs are definitely the reason for Type 2 and weight gain.
Agreed soda and potato chip, do not have them in the house.
I gave up soda but giving up chips...a little harder...kinda like them once in a while. 😉
@@leahgary1107 The Sensible Portions brand ‘Garden Veggie Chips’ are a good alternative to the typical potato chips. The cheddar cheese chips are just one gram of sugar per serving of 14 chips. Similar for other flavors. The fat content is a bit high, but still better than ‘cheating’ by having normal potato chips. They come in tubes like Pringles.
@@orangutantapioca1530 I'll have to look for those.
Thanks Doc for your time by helping us to learn more on diabetic foods and drinks that are harmful effects 👌👍🙏
Much appreciate 👍🙏
I find this video funny in a painful way. they don't mention that many people in society are poor and have little to no option. The foods we shouldn't eat are the ones that are easiest to afford. Other sites say "tomatoes are bad for arthritus" it seems nothing is healthy anymore.
I agree. As a recently diagnosed pre-diabetic,all I actually know for sure is that I absolutely cannot eat is refined sugar and carbs… i’m spending a lot of time discerning just exactly what I can and cant eat and filling up a notebook with info. It isn’t easy to wade through all this info,it seems there’s a limited arena if what I CAN eat! And what I can eat seems to resemble the “Keto “ diet which seems to be scary and cause heart issues . So it all leaves me wondering if I am going to live the rest of my life on baked chicken or meat and a minimum of steamed plain greens.
I'm not diabetic, but I find this information important for any health conscious person.
Same here
The best food for diabetics is the best food for everybody. I've been eating ketogenic now for over two years and have never been healthier in my life.
So just eliminate the typical American diet!😄
Yep!!!
everything in moderation. having it once in a while, if you're not diabetic, your body can handle it.
SAD (Standard American Diet).
Mediterranean diet is best, you will never feel deprived. Everything is nutritious and delicious.
Pretty much, yeah?
Fresh cooking for us. Preservatives and additives are our enemy. Carbs are kept extremely low.
