I lost 60 lbs just by cutting sugar, carbs, only drinking water, and doing 30 minutes of exercise 6 days a week. It sucked at the start. But, now I'm straight-up addicted. I didn't have abs in high school, but have them at 32!
GuntherL1 you have no Idea food is not he same anymore ie EVERYTHING kellogg's makes is high in HFCS and it was not in your grandparents day. just one example
gekiryudojo I have a very good idea since I avoid sugar in all forms. However, if you limit your intake drastically, a bit of sugar won't poison you. For most Americans that means that they have to dump all soft drinks, processed meals, cereal and sugary snacks. That would enable them to eat a sugary desert every one or two weeks without negative consequences. Unfortunately, we have lost that balance completely.
@@GuntherL1 poison is always about dose. Just because sugar as poison acts slowly does not mean it is not a poison; just like anything that kills us slowly. EMF and microwave radiation from our electronic devices is also poison.
I quit all types of sugar including fruit in November 2019. 3.5 months later I'm nearly 40lbs lighter. I work out 5 days a week, eat mostly protein and veggies, and I'm 71 years old. Started at 235lbs, now down to 195lbs, im 6' tall, medium build, in great shape, and it started by not eating sugar. Amazing
@@wolfpackflt670 let me write a retraction. I eat 2 or 3 dates about once a week, so I am eating a little, but absolutely no processed sugar, at least not that I know of. I'm still 40lbs lighter than I was 4 months ago and feel great
Thanks! 20 years ago, I realized that I was addicted to sugar in all its forms (molasses, honey, etc.). Sugar was devastating my health--I was overweight, pre-diabetic, and having trouble with cavities. I also obsessed about food issues, with lots of guilt and unhappiness. So, I stopped eating sugar in all its forms. It was hard, but only for a few weeks. After quitting for years at a time, I relapsed a few times--thinking, like an alcoholic, that I could eat just a little sugar. But, due to the build-up of tolerance, a little sugar led to a lot. I, finally, realized that I could never eat sugary sweets again. I eat mostly unprocessed foods and avoid as much as possible the sugar in salad dressings, etc. I use stevia as a sweetener, which gives me no health problems and has 0 calories. I'm 70 now. My weight is normal; I'm extremely active and healthy--I take no medications at all. Not eating sugar has freed me from food hangups and health problems. If you want the details of why Lustig is so anti-sugar, read his book "The Hacking of the American Mind."
Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm 54 and quit drinking wine a couple of months ago--which has resulted in massive sugar cravings. I've been feeling awful, so started doing research. Your experience is in my toolkit. ;-)
Thank you for this comment! Sugar has ruined my life too, and I'm only 35 years old. Have gout/kidney stones, and I'm working on eliminating sugar out of my diet, and getting my uric acid levels back to normal.
Mr. Robert Lustig, you have my greatest respect. Amazing speech. I heard decades of dedication behind every Sentence. Blessed to have stepped upon your video.
This guy been researching this since 1995 so yeah, and check his other videos he goes into more expansive details about everything. "is calorie a calorie" and " sugar the bitter truth" are a must to watch
Beautiful message! I'm very happy for the exposure of such an important information. I'm an 81 year old lady, who decided 30 years ago to study on my own why I was experiencing some awful symptoms. In the beginning, I presented them to my doctor, his treatment didn't work. So I decided to read about some posible solutions. I happened to find a company that distributes some natural products, but they also educate about how to change our eating habits, excercise, and have a positive mental attitude. Ever since I became a constant client. I decided to follow their advice. I also started to use their wonderful products for all those years. Ever since, when I go for my routinary check up, doctors are amazed to see an old lady that has no kinds of ailments. I'm saying this to support your wonderful mission to awaken up the citizens to go back to normal. Keep up your good work!

Followed his recommendations. No Sugar. No Alcohol. And I wasn't eating that much. But sugar was hidden in all the food. Lost 10cm round the belly while eating like crazy. Only the right things! Lustig is a GENIUS!
+Pr0fit5 Yeah, it makes me laugh that I can lose so much weight, gain so much strength while eating delicious food like a pig whenever I want. I just had to quit sugar (incl hidden sugar, e.g. fruit) and simple carbs (wheat, potatoes etc.). Most of the time I eat fish and vegetables (mainly the ones that grow above the ground) and I feel awesome. I plan to start eating small amounts of fruit and berries in the future. Funnily enough I also sleep much better and I read online that after switching to my diet, you can get sleep problems. Weird. Maybe I am a mutant.
In Chile they clearly label high sugar food as being hazardous in the same way as they do for cigarettes. And the food companies have responded by decreasing sugar to avoid the labeling. We could use that here.
I stopped having sugar and processed foods. I had no period cramps at all this month. And I lost 13kg in 3 weeks. I will continue with this lifestyle as I feel good🙂.... And bloating has fallen💗

Maybe because of the delivery? The way he's dressed? I had the sound off and was just reading subtitles last night after everyone went to sleep and it was informative and really pulled me in. Didn't finish it last night, so this morning I have the sound on and am watching and listening and honestly, I've stopped watching at the 20-minute mark because he is so aggressive and sounds so angry and then goes after libertarians (I am not a libertarian, but any group singled out is just wrong -- they didn't cause this as far as I know) and just seems holier than thou and YUCK! Where was HE 40 years ago? I hope he was sounding the alarm then, because I am totally turned off by this. I am here asking WHY are you so angry with me? It's not like he's angry at the system, he's angry with ME (or libertarians, but I'm bearing the brunt of it). Where was I 40 years ago? Why wasn't I doing something? I get it ... don't eat sugar, the food industry sucks. The rest is aggressive, angry diatribe that has left me feeling SO uncomfortable ... and not in a good way. There are other TEDx talks that get their point across much more eloquently and thought-provokingly -- watch "Sugar is Not a Treat" by Jody Stanislaw - TEDxSunValley. This dude is just too angry AT me instead of WITH me.
I feel so lucky my mom in a wild experiment in the late 70s took us off sugar for two years. Completely changed my path towards being heavy my whole life.
I've just adapted the Keto Diet + Intermittent Fasting. My psoriasis (which I had for 6 months) disappeared within 2 weeks. Society needs a paradigm shift in what we think about food.

3 weeks ago, I cut out all sugar out of my diet. I went on a low carb/high fat diet. some call it a keto diet. I have lost 15 lbs., my energy is up, my auto-immune symptoms are going way down, I have my life back. It's not that hard to do, there are many substitutes for sugar, erythritol, stevia, etc. My husband has also lost the same amount of weight, and his afternoon slumps are gone, his skin looks brighter, we're both happier. I didn't realize just how bad sugar was for our bodies til we adopted this way of eating and eliminating sugar and all but 20 grams of carbs per day.
+5piles If I cut out carbs, I would feel sick and anemic. I read somewhere that it depends on blood type and ethnicity. Being I'm mainly Hispanic and Chinese, rice and noodles are a HUGE stable in my diet. I can't imagine living without them. I could live without meat, but I can't give up the rice and noodles. Sorry. Atkins and Keto diets can kiss my ass.
+5piles That's a gross oversimplification of everything about the human body. Fatigue can come from a lot of things, including poor lighting, vitamin deficiency, overactive immune system, food, drugs, hormones, allergies, bad/weak lungs, weak/clogged vascular system, coffee withdrawal (neuro-vascular constriction) or the disruption of your sleep patterns. Carb deficiency is an unlikely cause of fatigue. It's not impossible, but it's unlikely.
+Yusiley Sierra Yeah, I've never liked the idea of cutting carbs. The work I do is like doing a math exam for 6.5 hours a day. For me, cutting carbs would probably be like pinching the fuel line on a race car and then sticking it into a race.
its amazing from these comments how many people still dont seem to get it going on about why they cant cut out all carbs..you dont need to ...just the sugar..without the sugar you will self regulate because it will be the first time you have listened to your body without the interference of sugar
One of my favorite talks. Really gets good around 10:40. A calorie is not a calorie, sugar is cause of diabetes, get RID of the processed food and EAT REAL FOOD!
Dr. Lustig is one the best scientistic in USA.It's joy to listening.I was sugar addicted. Now I spent more time to read labels of food, to avoid any sugar.
I've been changing my life now from watching this guy and others similar to him for over a year now, And my life is slowly changing in a positive way thankyou sir for your time and effort s for humanity 🙏 ❤️.
Addiction to foods. Sugar is highly addictive. Why do you think McDonalds soak their french fries in usage water? The brain/body prefers fat for fuel. It is a cleaner fuel. If you do more research you will find that sugar/bad carbs are causing so many health issues over time. Google keto diet and ? whatever - and disease or health condition you can think of.
That would be lactose, a naturally occurring sugar in milk, that appears as 'sugar' in plain yogurt, not added sugar. Compare it to the sugar in fruit-preserve filled yogurt, and you'll see the difference.
Because the food processing industry knows it is addicting, so when you eat the mayo with sugar added your brain says Ummm, this mayo tastes better, so buy it next time! Same with canned beans, ketchup, salad dressings, etc. If you quit ALL sources of processed sugars for at least 30 days, unsweetened foods will taste so much better, and sweetened foods will taste waaay too sweet. The food manufacturers know this, they want us to keep buying processed foods so it's added to everything so we have a hard time excluding it UNLESS we read every label or just quit eating anything processed in any way. If you need sweetener for coffee or tea, you can safely use stevia extract, not Truvia or other processed stevia, only pure extract.
Karl J: odds are, that's "salad dressing" and not mayonnaise. Real Mayo doesn't contain sugar, but "salad dressing", i.e., Miracle Whip type dressing, does.
Dr. Lustig is a gift to humanity. I watched all his videos.. just found this one. He is BRILLIANT.. and right. It’s up to every one of us…and to help our kids too. Please…save yourselves.
There’s actually nothing wrong with American cooking. There are two types of diets here, American cuisine and fast-food-too-busy-and tired-to-care diet. The last one is more of a business than diet,
Dr. Lustig has been my sugar guru for years. I am six years without sweeteners of any kind natural or artificial. Yes, if I eat in a restaurant they nip it in to things, but never have I eaten ice cream, cake, pie, cookies, juice. After years of yoyo dieting my weight has been stable within a few pounds for six years.
Great information. I learning more every day. Sugar is in everything. I now walk around a store and observe peoples shopping carts. Its amazing how people in America still don't get it. I keep talking about this but it falls on deaf ears. So i appreciate your efforts and teaching us how to spread the word. I just wish company's would be more caring about what there doing to us. There are plenty of other problems we can move on to.
You're so right, but it's not just the US it's the same in the UK. The company I work for sends a 'wellness' package to employees each month and for the most part it's either a patronising message, junk food or chocolate...
I started cutting out sugar 25 days ago, and dropped from 156.5 pounds to 150 pounds during that time. I've got another 10 pounds (at least!) to lose, so I'll be continuing it. And even after that, I doubt I'll ever go back to sugar. Having lost my mother (who was overweight) to a premature heart attack, I don't want to go down that same path.
Thank you Dr. Lustig. Any survey of the foods advertised on children's programs will reveal cups of sugar daily, not just teaspoons. If we won't allow cigarette advertising, why on earth do we condone sugary products and empty, processed calories? Children want what they see. It is our job not to permit toxins in their environment.
Let me tell you how ingrained sugar is in today's schools. When I was still in HIGH SCHOOL (I am 70-years old now), I remember when they removed the vending machines containing fresh apples and oranges, and replaced them with candy machines. When parents complained about it, the government told the candy manufacturers that they had to offset the selling of all these sugary candies with something "educational." So they immediately complied. They started showing 'educational' films in the classroom, ON THE HISTORY OF THE TOOTSIE ROLL!!! I can't make something like this up, this really happened. All major corporations are criminal organizations in disguise.
I think this guy is great! I just hope he continues to educate, and make the world aware of this very real problem - Well done again Dr Lustig! - Please, Please can we have some more of the same - Siobhan UK
1000 years back Ayurvedic text in India, told this science. Once eating in a whole day ( 24 hours) become great monk. Two times eating in whole day leads to healthy human. Frequent eating (more than three) leads to ill or unhealthy. Eat food like medicine.
One of the best TEDx speeches I ever heard. Dr Lustig understands both medicine and politics. Unfortunately, we haven't moved too much since this speech.

Sugar free for three years 20 years ago and limiting the amount of sugar intake thereafter, but expensive dentistry awoke me to the fact that I was again consuming enough sugar to deteriorate my health. Sugar is in most of the food, it's advertised everywhere, nearly everyone you meet is addicted to it. Thanks to Dr. Lustig for spelling it out once more: sugar is a crippling addiction
Dr. Lustig, I watched this TED talk when it was new, and I still watch you ALL the time. I was a hard sell (I was convinced being vegan was more important--now I eat meats), but now I'm totally on Team Lustig.
Great talk. Like alcohol, sugar is unlikely to be made illegal, and we would need to show conclusive evidence of harm in order to tax it like tobacco. It's amazing to me how we continue to subsidize sugar and corn, creating this gap between what people can afford and what's healthy to eat.
I agree with everything EXCEPT raising taxes. Why is junk food so cheap? Subsidies! Why should we pay to subsidize and also pay a tax to consume. REMOVE THE SUBSIDIES! Let sugar and corn products be their real prices before we add a tax on for every. Why is that never discussed???
the diet from the US and then spreading out is only designed as Robert says for one reason - to create cravings and therefore create more cash from spending more cash on carbage

As more and more consumers become ill and cant get affordable health care and the crisis becomes unmanageable perhaps then our desperate situation will begin to change.
Part of the reason sugar is in all our food is because high fructose corn syrup is so cheap because the government subsidizes corn growing through the farm bill.

@@MLGBrownCat There are good fats and bad fats, there are good sugars and bad sugars. Honey and maple syrup are very healthy, olive oil, coconut oil and avocado oil are good fats.
@@crand20033 Honey and Maple syrup are still sugars and they are metabolized in the same exact processes in the body and have the same negative effects as any other sugars would have.
It should be understood that this talk is about SUGAR and not all carbohydrates. The fiber found in whole food carbohydrates is the difference here. Even sugars from fruits are fine so long as the fiber is still intact.
That's bull. Go watch Penn and Teller's "Organic Food is Bullshit" episode. It's pretty enlightening. The main point they make is that without engineered farming, most of the world would starve. The whole "GMO" thing has been debunked pretty thoroughly by science. Lot's of anti-GMO people read some of these studies and draw FALSE conclusions from them (conclusions the scientists who WROTE the fucking paper do not make). That's why it is not a good idea to read academic papers unless you're an expert in the field. Most anti-GMO people are wholly scientifically illiterate. They are NO DIFFERENT from the idiots who say "vaccines cause autism."
bustinasscoach I eat low carb, but I don't think it's necessary for everyone to take out all natural carbohydrates. Vegetables are great for you, a piece of fruit a day is fine for most people, and some can even handle more. Insulin sensitive people can even handle things like sour dough bread, potatoes and rice. Not everyone is the same and the body can and will metabolize glucose and/or manufacture it. If you are lean, active and young, upwards of 100 grams of carbs might be fine. Others do better on less. Others on a ketogenic diet.
The sugar problem is rooted in people's need for short term satisfaction at the expense of their long term health; sugar gives people that fast energy spike for which they would sacrifice their long term health. The food industry exists to make money, if people crave sugar, sugar will be added. Government won't step in because food industry generates a lot of tax revenues. Nobody, except yourself, can make the correct food decision for yourself. The capitalist world operates on profits, and since any social system has flaws you can't expect a capitalist society to make decisions that care about the long term health of its population; capital is short sighted. For those of you that watch this video, you are already taking important steps to educate yourself, so make sure to educate others around you as well.
Thank you doctor Robert lustig. You saved me you changed my life for the better. You're making everybody's like better you're saving America you're saving the world. You're very well spoken a great speaker.
I used to have a lot of sugar in my diet. I wasn’t able to cut it all out, but made a drastic reduction by targeting sugary snacks I used to have daily. And by not adding sugar to things like coffee or cereal. I lost 15 pounds in 2 months. And another 5 a few months later
$245B for diabetes + $200B for dementia, all going from patient-victims, and going to... Where my lawyer at? All I've studied points to insulin as the main enemy of health. Dr Jason Fung makes some good arguments. Also, excess protein causes an insulin response.

Thanks! 20 years ago, I realized that I was addicted to sugar in all its forms (molasses, honey, etc.). Sugar was devastating my health--I was overweight, pre-diabetic, and having trouble with cavities. I also obsessed about food issues, with lots of guilt and unhappiness.
So, I stopped eating sugar in all its forms. It was hard, but only for a few weeks. After quitting for years at a time, I relapsed a few times--thinking, like an alcoholic, that I could eat just a little sugar. But, due to the build-up of tolerance, a little sugar led to a lot. I, finally, realized that I could never eat sugary sweets again. I eat mostly unprocessed foods and avoid as much as possible the sugar in salad dressings, etc. I use stevia as a sweetener, which gives me no health problems and has 0 calories.
I'm 70 now. My weight is normal; I'm extremely active and healthy--I take no medications at all. Not eating sugar has freed me from food hangups and health problems. If you want the details of why Lustig is so anti-sugar, read his book "The Hacking of the American Mind."
A little bit of raw unpasteurized honey is still good. Other than sweet fruits, That's the only sugar I have everyday.
Thank you for recommending the book
Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm 54 and quit drinking wine a couple of months ago--which has resulted in massive sugar cravings. I've been feeling awful, so started doing research. Your experience is in my toolkit. ;-)
Thanks for your testimony. I'm trying to avoid eating added sugar and grains this year.
Thank you for this comment! Sugar has ruined my life too, and I'm only 35 years old. Have gout/kidney stones, and I'm working on eliminating sugar out of my diet, and getting my uric acid levels back to normal.
Mr. Robert Lustig, you have my greatest respect. Amazing speech. I heard decades of dedication behind every Sentence. Blessed to have stepped upon your video.
This guy been researching this since 1995 so yeah, and check his other videos he goes into more expansive details about everything. "is calorie a calorie" and " sugar the bitter truth" are a must to watch
Stepped upon your video? No respect! Lol
Beautiful message! I'm very happy for the exposure of such an important information. I'm an 81 year old lady, who decided 30 years ago to study on my own why I was experiencing some awful symptoms. In the beginning, I presented them to my doctor, his treatment didn't work. So I decided to read about some posible solutions. I happened to find a company that distributes some natural products, but they also educate about how to change our eating habits, excercise, and have a positive mental attitude. Ever since I became a constant client. I decided to follow their advice. I also started to use their wonderful products for all those years. Ever since, when I go for my routinary check up, doctors are amazed to see an old lady that has no kinds of ailments. I'm saying this to support your wonderful mission to awaken up the citizens to go back to normal. Keep up your good work!

What is your diet like?
Followed his recommendations. No Sugar. No Alcohol. And I wasn't eating that much. But sugar was hidden in all the food. Lost 10cm round the belly while eating like crazy. Only the right things! Lustig is a GENIUS!
+Pr0fit5 Yeah, it makes me laugh that I can lose so much weight, gain so much strength while eating delicious food like a pig whenever I want. I just had to quit sugar (incl hidden sugar, e.g. fruit) and simple carbs (wheat, potatoes etc.). Most of the time I eat fish and vegetables (mainly the ones that grow above the ground) and I feel awesome. I plan to start eating small amounts of fruit and berries in the future.
Funnily enough I also sleep much better and I read online that after switching to my diet, you can get sleep problems. Weird. Maybe I am a mutant.
@@PiretBCN Which vegetables grow above ground?

And the knowledge has been there for decades. A huge thank you to John Yudkin and Robert Lustig and Tim Noakes (amongst others)!
In Chile they clearly label high sugar food as being hazardous in the same way as they do for cigarettes. And the food companies have responded by decreasing sugar to avoid the labeling. We could use that here.

Maybe because of the delivery? The way he's dressed? I had the sound off and was just reading subtitles last night after everyone went to sleep and it was informative and really pulled me in. Didn't finish it last night, so this morning I have the sound on and am watching and listening and honestly, I've stopped watching at the 20-minute mark because he is so aggressive and sounds so angry and then goes after libertarians (I am not a libertarian, but any group singled out is just wrong -- they didn't cause this as far as I know) and just seems holier than thou and YUCK! Where was HE 40 years ago? I hope he was sounding the alarm then, because I am totally turned off by this. I am here asking WHY are you so angry with me? It's not like he's angry at the system, he's angry with ME (or libertarians, but I'm bearing the brunt of it). Where was I 40 years ago? Why wasn't I doing something? I get it ... don't eat sugar, the food industry sucks. The rest is aggressive, angry diatribe that has left me feeling SO uncomfortable ... and not in a good way. There are other TEDx talks that get their point across much more eloquently and thought-provokingly -- watch "Sugar is Not a Treat" by Jody Stanislaw - TEDxSunValley. This dude is just too angry AT me instead of WITH me.
Because big business and big pharma are screwing us. Time to wake up world we are on the losing end of this deal!
I feel so lucky my mom in a wild experiment in the late 70s took us off sugar for two years. Completely changed my path towards being heavy my whole life.

3 weeks ago, I cut out all sugar out of my diet. I went on a low carb/high fat diet. some call it a keto diet. I have lost 15 lbs., my energy is up, my auto-immune symptoms are going way down, I have my life back. It's not that hard to do, there are many substitutes for sugar, erythritol, stevia, etc. My husband has also lost the same amount of weight, and his afternoon slumps are gone, his skin looks brighter, we're both happier. I didn't realize just how bad sugar was for our bodies til we adopted this way of eating and eliminating sugar and all but 20 grams of carbs per day.
+5piles If I cut out carbs, I would feel sick and anemic. I read somewhere that it depends on blood type and ethnicity. Being I'm mainly Hispanic and Chinese, rice and noodles are a HUGE stable in my diet. I can't imagine living without them. I could live without meat, but I can't give up the rice and noodles. Sorry. Atkins and Keto diets can kiss my ass.
Yusiley Sierra there are no carbs necessary for human survival
Deborah McLeod-Morris
Yea, whatever tell that to the millions of people who are alive today due to rice and pasta. >_>

That's a gross oversimplification of everything about the human body.
Fatigue can come from a lot of things, including poor lighting, vitamin deficiency, overactive immune system, food, drugs, hormones, allergies, bad/weak lungs, weak/clogged vascular system, coffee withdrawal (neuro-vascular constriction) or the disruption of your sleep patterns.
Carb deficiency is an unlikely cause of fatigue.
It's not impossible, but it's unlikely.
+Yusiley Sierra
Yeah, I've never liked the idea of cutting carbs.
The work I do is like doing a math exam for 6.5 hours a day.
For me, cutting carbs would probably be like pinching the fuel line on a race car and then sticking it into a race.
That was the most cogent Ted talk I have ever watched. Thank you my good sir.
I love how he speaks. This is how a professional delivers
These kind of videos are very important for our health. Everybody should see them!
How articulate & calm he is!
its amazing from these comments how many people still dont seem to get it going on about why they cant cut out all carbs..you dont need to ...just the sugar..without the sugar you will self regulate because it will be the first time you have listened to your body without the interference of sugar
That's because the biggest epidemic in the world is not even being talked about .....

@@hemanrocks9249 fully agree man
One of my favorite talks. Really gets good around 10:40. A calorie is not a calorie, sugar is cause of diabetes, get RID of the processed food and EAT REAL FOOD!
Mandatory viewing for everybody on the planet ... Bravo Dr Lustig! Please share this as much as possible ...and don’t stop!
Dr. Lustig is one the best scientistic in USA.It's joy to listening.I was sugar addicted.
Now I spent more time to read labels of food, to avoid any sugar.
Scientist
I've been changing my life now from watching this guy and others similar to him for over a year now,
And my life is slowly changing in a positive way thankyou sir for your time and effort s for humanity 🙏 ❤️.
The Doc needs a National stage to address the masses. Bavo!! The Truth needs to be spoken far and wide.
This is absolutely brilliant. Listen to this man!
This is one of his most captivating concise talks.
I bow to this man. He helped me a lot already. 👏🎊
I looked at the ingredients in my fridge and found sugar in almost everything..I.e. Chicken Broth and Mayonnaise...WHY???
Addiction to foods. Sugar is highly addictive. Why do you think McDonalds soak their french fries in usage water? The brain/body prefers fat for fuel. It is a cleaner fuel. If you do more research you will find that sugar/bad carbs are causing so many health issues over time. Google keto diet and ? whatever - and disease or health condition you can think of.
That would be lactose, a naturally occurring sugar in milk, that appears as 'sugar' in plain yogurt, not added sugar. Compare it to the sugar in fruit-preserve filled yogurt, and you'll see the difference.
Because the food processing industry knows it is addicting, so when you eat the mayo with sugar added your brain says Ummm, this mayo tastes better, so buy it next time! Same with canned beans, ketchup, salad dressings, etc. If you quit ALL sources of processed sugars for at least 30 days, unsweetened foods will taste so much better, and sweetened foods will taste waaay too sweet. The food manufacturers know this, they want us to keep buying processed foods so it's added to everything so we have a hard time excluding it UNLESS we read every label or just quit eating anything processed in any way. If you need sweetener for coffee or tea, you can safely use stevia extract, not Truvia or other processed stevia, only pure extract.
A good tip for you.
You can purée dates or even apples so they make a paste. Then you can use that sugar instead of unnatural ones.
Karl J: odds are, that's "salad dressing" and not mayonnaise. Real Mayo doesn't contain sugar, but "salad dressing", i.e., Miracle Whip type dressing, does.
Dr. Lustig is a gift to humanity. I watched all his videos.. just found this one. He is BRILLIANT.. and right. It’s up to every one of us…and to help our kids too. Please…save yourselves.
I'm native Seminole and don't do the American diet or fast-food like Taco Bell. Death Food! No Mucus No Disease!
"No mucus No disease" Great band name.
There’s actually nothing wrong with American cooking. There are two types of diets here, American cuisine and fast-food-too-busy-and tired-to-care diet. The last one is more of a business than diet,
Dr. Lustig has been my sugar guru for years. I am six years without sweeteners of any kind natural or artificial. Yes, if I eat in a restaurant they nip it in to things, but never have I eaten ice cream, cake, pie, cookies, juice. After years of yoyo dieting my weight has been stable within a few pounds for six years.
Great information. I learning more every day. Sugar is in everything. I now walk around a store and observe peoples shopping carts. Its amazing how people in America still don't get it. I keep talking about this but it falls on deaf ears. So i appreciate your efforts and teaching us how to spread the word. I just wish company's would be more caring about what there doing to us. There are plenty of other problems we can move on to.
You're so right, but it's not just the US it's the same in the UK. The company I work for sends a 'wellness' package to employees each month and for the most part it's either a patronising message, junk food or chocolate...
I started cutting out sugar 25 days ago, and dropped from 156.5 pounds to 150 pounds during that time. I've got another 10 pounds (at least!) to lose, so I'll be continuing it. And even after that, I doubt I'll ever go back to sugar. Having lost my mother (who was overweight) to a premature heart attack, I don't want to go down that same path.
Thanks to Dr. Lustig for fighting the good fight.
900 fools thumbed down ! So sad . This man is someone you must believe. He will save your life .
They work in the food industry 😅
Thank you Dr. Lustig. Any survey of the foods advertised on children's programs will reveal cups of sugar daily, not just teaspoons. If we won't allow cigarette advertising, why on earth do we condone sugary products and empty, processed calories? Children want what they see. It is our job not to permit toxins in their environment.
THANK YOU! Dr. Lustig! Save our children...
Mr. Robert, you are AWESOME, simply THE BEST!!! Thank you!!!
Let me tell you how ingrained sugar is in today's schools. When I was still in HIGH SCHOOL (I am 70-years old now), I remember when they removed the vending machines containing fresh apples and oranges, and replaced them with candy machines. When parents complained about it, the government told the candy manufacturers that they had to offset the selling of all these sugary candies with something "educational." So they immediately complied. They started showing 'educational' films in the classroom, ON THE HISTORY OF THE TOOTSIE ROLL!!! I can't make something like this up, this really happened. All major corporations are criminal organizations in disguise.

When I was a kid and a boy scout, we were taught to start our campfires with sugar, that’s when you really see how much energy is in it
Sugar free for three years 20 years ago and limiting the amount of sugar intake thereafter, but expensive dentistry awoke me to the fact that I was again consuming enough sugar to deteriorate my health. Sugar is in most of the food, it's advertised everywhere, nearly everyone you meet is addicted to it. Thanks to Dr. Lustig for spelling it out once more: sugar is a crippling addiction
"I don't believe in common sense. I believe the data." Excellent talk.
Makes you think about why the two aren't the same
Dr. Lustig, I watched this TED talk when it was new, and I still watch you ALL the time. I was a hard sell (I was convinced being vegan was more important--now I eat meats), but now I'm totally on Team Lustig.
Great talk. Like alcohol, sugar is unlikely to be made illegal, and we would need to show conclusive evidence of harm in order to tax it like tobacco. It's amazing to me how we continue to subsidize sugar and corn, creating this gap between what people can afford and what's healthy to eat.
Worth watching like a mantra everyday.
Sugar is most addictive substance.
I agree with everything EXCEPT raising taxes. Why is junk food so cheap? Subsidies! Why should we pay to subsidize and also pay a tax to consume. REMOVE THE SUBSIDIES! Let sugar and corn products be their real prices before we add a tax on for every. Why is that never discussed???
the diet from the US and then spreading out is only designed as Robert says for one reason - to create cravings and therefore create more cash from spending more cash on carbage

Watching this again for motivation
I can't get enough of Dr L.
I wish I saw this 10yrs ago
It should be understood that this talk is about SUGAR and not all carbohydrates. The fiber found in whole food carbohydrates is the difference here. Even sugars from fruits are fine so long as the fiber is still intact.
Yes, quality fruits and such
That's bull. Go watch Penn and Teller's "Organic Food is Bullshit" episode. It's pretty enlightening. The main point they make is that without engineered farming, most of the world would starve. The whole "GMO" thing has been debunked pretty thoroughly by science. Lot's of anti-GMO people read some of these studies and draw FALSE conclusions from them (conclusions the scientists who WROTE the fucking paper do not make). That's why it is not a good idea to read academic papers unless you're an expert in the field. Most anti-GMO people are wholly scientifically illiterate. They are NO DIFFERENT from the idiots who say "vaccines cause autism."
no better to avoid those carbs also, no reason to eat carbs really
you get your health information from...entertainers?
bustinasscoach I eat low carb, but I don't think it's necessary for everyone to take out all natural carbohydrates. Vegetables are great for you, a piece of fruit a day is fine for most people, and some can even handle more. Insulin sensitive people can even handle things like sour dough bread, potatoes and rice. Not everyone is the same and the body can and will metabolize glucose and/or manufacture it. If you are lean, active and young, upwards of 100 grams of carbs might be fine. Others do better on less. Others on a ketogenic diet.
The sugar problem is rooted in people's need for short term satisfaction at the expense of their long term health; sugar gives people that fast energy spike for which they would sacrifice their long term health. The food industry exists to make money, if people crave sugar, sugar will be added. Government won't step in because food industry generates a lot of tax revenues. Nobody, except yourself, can make the correct food decision for yourself. The capitalist world operates on profits, and since any social system has flaws you can't expect a capitalist society to make decisions that care about the long term health of its population; capital is short sighted. For those of you that watch this video, you are already taking important steps to educate yourself, so make sure to educate others around you as well.

Thank you doctor Robert lustig. You saved me you changed my life for the better. You're making everybody's like better you're saving America you're saving the world. You're very well spoken a great speaker.
I used to have a lot of sugar in my diet.
I wasn’t able to cut it all out, but made a drastic reduction by targeting sugary snacks I used to have daily. And by not adding sugar to things like coffee or cereal.
I lost 15 pounds in 2 months. And another 5 a few months later
We're all addicted to sugar in our food. Cutting way back on sugar in our diet is extremely hard.
No it's not!
Don't eat at fast food places for starters...
$245B for diabetes + $200B for dementia, all going from patient-victims, and going to... Where my lawyer at?
All I've studied points to insulin as the main enemy of health. Dr Jason Fung makes some good arguments. Also, excess protein causes an insulin response.

???What's going to become OF the sugar farmer???there's a lot of them IN this world, that's where it all starts, they would have to grow some thing else, any suggestions? Was a great Talk for us, Thanks Doc.
It's hard to give up what's hurting you but a person's just going to have to if they want to feel good
there is no money in being heallty ..... if everyone was healthy .... how many would be out of a job?
agree 100%
We would have a lot more models.
That may be the obscure reason behind this. Lots and lots of jobs in healthcare, pharma and food industry would be scrapped.
Treating instead of curing.
Prescribing medication against symptoms instead of treating the reason for the disease.
The american nutrition pyramid with sugars at the base.... (really?)
Not really. If someone is healthy, they will still buy healthy food.
