Ice cream tasted better when I was a kid back in the 1970s, because my grandparents had an ice cream maker. The ingredients were all natural. I'm not just being nostalgic either.
Listening to this from Southern Italy is very funny. I live in a small city where barely any tourists arrive and we have at least 3 world-class gelaterias that make the most delicious ice cream with local fresh milk and fresh fruits. What you describe is unheard of here and people wouldn’t believe it.
Yeah, supermarkets in Nixa Missouri only carry high fructose poison ice cream. That fructose they found is the greatest cause of a major liver disease. I think I'll make my own
@@nicholasdickens2801 That is the truth. I live close to several beach resort towns and we have two local "Homemade Ice Cream" companies in the area. Although both have long since abandoned the in house small town ice cream making of the 60s, both still use fresh local ingredients and manufacture close to their retail stores and both far outperform national ice cream brands.
Start reading the ingredients. If it’s bioengineered, do not buy the item. Bioengineered food has been around since 1994, the thing is, it wasn’t put on the back of the items until they were made to.
Absolutely; I live in Texas which is known for Blue Bell, but their quality of ingredients is absolutely TERRIBLE. So much artificial crap! There are way better options made by smaller manufacturers. I'm glad he repeatedly called out the sugar alcohol. I effing HATE when companies use that as their sugar substitute. There's of course the famous gummy bear review of the guy that consumed a large bag sweetened with sugar alcohol... Protein bars are especially guilty of this. Allulose and Monk fruit are definitely top tier as far as sugar substitutes. Stevia is OK is small quantities, but when it's the primary source it has a weird bitter flavor. I would often honestly take raw honey as a sweetener over any substitute other than the aforementioned.
In my country, Indonesia, we made traditional ice cream using coconut milk, shredded coconut, a little salt, and unrefined cane sugar. Just blend everthing with crushed ice cubes, then stir it vigoriously. Sometimes we add boiled mung beans, or red beans, or avocado or jackfruit or pandanus leaf for variety of flavour. No artificial ingredients and it's really YUMMY!!
Homemade ice cream recipe: 1 cup organic grass-fed heavy cream 2 pasture-raised, organic egg yolks 3 tbsp powdered allulose or 1 tbsp honey 1 pinch sea salt 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract ½ cup pecans or walnuts (optional) Directions: Blend the ingredients and freeze for 4 to 5 hours. Thank you Dr Berg! Bon Meowpetite!😺🍧
@@danielwood6578🌸 I can remember some chefs on TV used powder in their ice cream It must have been either custard powder or egg powder, if you Google it, I bet you can find healthy one I make my ice cream with frozen bananas to form ice base, another frozen fruit, then I put either healthy yogurt bought or I make it myself. Make sure there is no added sugar in that yogurt 😊 Blend and put in freezer, it will taste like ice cream , but you have to consume it in 3 days 😊
I tried his recipe and it's not ice cream; it's frozen dessert. You need an actual churn to make ice cream; blending the ingredients and sticking them in the freezer is not enough.
It's nice that Dr.Berg told us about his venture in the ice-cream market! I REALLY appreciate when people talk about their failures or setbacks, it takes guts, transparency and maturity to do so. In a world made of shadows, mirrors an fakeness, it's always refreshing to see true people that talk about their real experiences (good or bad). Thank you!
same. I don't think it had to be a fail, however, Perhaps just an explanation of the process on the label. I would have loved to try it. I appreciate that he tried to bring that to the people.
Remember the Ice Cream Test w/ Turkey Hill Brand.. It wouldn't Melt..... it so full of a horrid substance .. so Scary ..I won't buy their products i.e drinks etc
This is why I buy his supplements. In his videos he talks about how and why his supplements are better than the competition. He discusses not putting shady fillers or ingredients in them. It sold me.
I gave up on ice cream 18 months ago. Really not missing it at all. Went on a healthy keto diet and have lost 44lbs. Have to stick with it. It’s my new normal.
@@barryjames73 Very doable. I stopped eating bread/grains and drinking beer casually on the weekends and lost 25 pounds in 2 weeks, and I didn't think I had that much to lose as I keep in pretty good shape for my age.
6:29 _No Sugar Added_ does not mean there is no sugar in the product. It just means that if there is sugar in the product, they didn't add it. It was already there.
I remember the original Breyers vanilla when my parents bought ice cream cones for me and my sister from a true grandma and grandpa candy shop over 45 years ago when it WAS ONLY TRULY MILK, CREAM, SUGAR, AND VANILLA before they destroyed it🤮
You can also freeze whipping cream into cubes. Blend the cream cubes with vanilla extract and honey (optional). Or blend cream with frozen banana slices.
The only Ice Cream we eat we make. Straus Organic Cream and Milk. Quarter cup organic sugar. Organic Vanilla and then whatever we might like it flavored with. Organic cream cheese has been working out really well. All part of the food do-over my wife and I have been on for the last couple years. What we can make from scratch we make. We grow alot of food in our garden and eat Little to nothing pre-made or processed. Big differences in quality of life. Your channel has been helpful for parts of this journey.... Best.
Reading your comment felt like a beautiful day in the warm sun, as a beautiful breeze blows as I swing on the chair on the front porch, having a connected conversation with family and friends. It feels so nostalgic. xx
I have cancer and I really like making malts. I live in Wisconsin, and I am blessed to live in a town with an ice cream store that has made their own ice cream for the last 50 years. Ranison ice cream la crosse Wisconsin.
I just quickly saw the name of the post and I have a question. How do you begin to stop eating sugar. I have such a bad sweet tooth habit and I'm quit overweight. I know of one person that told me they don't eat sugar.
@@representing50plus Stop eating anything GMO! That will solve many of your health and weight problems. Your body is starving, GMOs are referred to as Franken food, they have been stuffed with roundup and the seed itself has been 'redesigned' by extremly evil men!Look it up study this, corn and soy are deadly for our bodies and most everything has some sort of these two in them. Our beef and chicken most meats are fed with this stuff. You are fat because you stay hungry and can't resist stuffing yourself with poison! Start reading labels, start feeding your body with nonGMO.
@@representing50plus🌸 I can tell you how I did it, I started by cutting back on all sweets first I removed it from all hot drinks, and had my tea without. I took earl grey because it’s fragrant and mixed with a fruit berry one It tasted so good that I didn’t need sugar I also cut back on all fried foods, as I noticed that made me crave sugary foods I then cut all sweets once I felt ready. I did fall off the wagon and knew I needed something more drastic Mental Reprogram: So I envisioned myself looking at table with all healthy foods and I stood just behind it in my ideal form, healthy and happy Then I envisioned another table filled with all junk foods, I saw very disfigured me, because of diabetes etc I pictured vermin crawling all over it, putrid waste all over it Human hair etc, anything to cause a mental reprogram so that I associated good whole foods with healthy life and bad foods with vile things and health problems Vision Board:- I wrote my goals on vision board and I saw it day n night in my bedroom I celebrated any small wins and I exercised gently daily, within 3 months I got flat stomach, healthy body It is very easy to maintain once you start and once 3 weeks went by my cravings for sugar stopped I used healthy sugar sweeteners for anything I needed to be sweet I removed all sauces, I never went near bakery etc. I made my own keto friendly sweets using free RUclips recipes I hope that helps, one 1 mth turn into months you start to taste food and even detect more flavours sugar was concealing After long while I started to eat fruits again and that became my only source of sugar and I never ate any too sweet Just enough fruits so I got vit c 😊
Added humor? Dr Berg has been funny as long as I've been watching him... which is several years now... and much of the time, I dont think hes even trying to be funny 😂
awesome video, Dr. Berg. my family had an ice cream maker when I was growing up and made it on occasion, but it was like three ingredients if I recall and you had to have that rock salt. it really taste pure..
We have a guy who makes ice cream in the area and sells it in a food truck. Best stuff I ever had and he doesn’t use any sugar. Mainly organic local heavy cream.
Here's my chocolate ice cream recipe: 16 ounces of heavy cream, 16 ounces of whole milk or coconut milk, 3-4 tablespoons cocoa powder, 6 to 8 tablespoons allulose/monk fruit powder, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, half cup almonds (optional). Shake up in a 5 cup Rubbermaid container with a lid and freeze overnight.
@@meldenedorn8585 You can, but just know that the milk will tend to get frothy, so don't do that too much to it. I sometimes use a small whisk and add the milks a little at a time and shake in between adding more milk/cream.
Breyers isn't ice cream anymore either. You blurred out the picture, but at 1:22 you can see that at the bottom of the carton it also says "something something frozen dairy dessert" in white letters.
My favorite flavor and the ice cream with the best, all natural ingredients that's widely available is Haagen-Dazs Vanilla Bean. INGREDIENTS: Cream Skim Milk Cane Sugar Egg Yolks Ground Vanilla Beans
I tried something different: I use a inexpensive home ice cream maker, and mix low carb protein shakes with 1/2 cup heavy cream and half the water for the shake mix ( or less) . you will need 2 servings of shake mix, some sticks to the machine, but it makes a very satisfying dessert. If I'm doing it after dinner I use a Casein protein mix like cookies and cream, and it helps me sleep through the night! Add fresh berries, nuts, whatever you like! Following Dr. Berg, in 18 months I lost 75 lbs., down to 205 and off prescription blood pressure meds I have been on for 10 YEARS! Thank you Dr Berg for your no nonsense information!
I was in Paris near the Nortre Dame. There was a Haagen Dazs stand, so I got some. It's the only ice cream that I eat. To p-off the snobby Parisians in line, I told them that H-D is an American brand. They sneered at me and said, "You are misinformed. It's Danish". I told them to "google it". That made my day....
On the rare occasion when I just gotta have some ice cream, and can't make my own, I go for Haagen Dazs Vanilla or Coffee only. They are the only 2 (I think Pistachio too, actually) that don't have "natural flavors" added. Just 4 ingredients. Not organic of course, but better than anything else in the regular grocery store.
@@mrlafayette1964 I dislike the chocolate on the almonds in this one. Will not melt in your mouth, resembles wax to me. I'm sure this chocolate contains paraffin. The one I loved was the vanilla with the fudge swirls that ran through it. They quit making it for some reason.
I love icecream too! We are so glad you do not use the filter on your face anymore like in previous videos- so much better. We like honesty. Thank you!
Me too! I like real ingredients. I just do not eat it very often. Haagen Daz is the best as far as I am concerned. I usually only eat ice cream in the summer and only in moderation.
Glad your ok with rebel, been able to eat that ice cream and doing keto and intermittent fasting for 2 yrs lost 50 lbs and kept it off, food actually taste better and is more satisfying doing the healthy keto diet.
If you "need" a treat of ice cream, Rebel is the way, IMHO. happy to have found it yrs ago. But, homemade is ideal for ingredient control. A little time spent and you can compliment yourself on your culinary wizardry.
All my local stores stopped carrying Rebel and I'm SO mad about it. I would buy a pint once or twice a month. Yes, I would eat the entire pint in one sitting, but I was eating it seldom enough that that wasn't a problem.
I don't eat ice cream very often because store bought ice creams affect my cognitive ability. It seems to be the "gums" they use that shut down my thinking and processing ability. I stick with homemade ice cream - from scratch. (Which I rarely make!) My recipe might not be the healthiest, but my brain functions normally. Thank for the great info - especially the recipes.
I have always chosen Häagen-Dazs, not really out of concern for sugar content but merely the fact that the ingredients list is the shortest and most natural compared to other ice creams. Their basic flavors even have the certified non-GMO label on them. Any other flavors of Häagen-Dazs though beyond chocolate, strawberry and vanilla aren’t anywhere near as natural and also aren’t certified non-GMO. Their chocolate is amazing. Very rich cocoa flavor with just enough sweetness, but not excessively sweet like most chocolate ice cream.
I'm never going to make ice cream, so H-Daz is the only one I buy, for the same reasons you listed. Vanilla is my go-to. I can add my own fruit, nuts, cookies or broken candy bar if I want to jazz it up.
When I contact a company asking about what are their natural ingredients and asking if it is sugar the only think they will tell me is avoid their product if I have any concerns. They won't tell me what it is.
I love you’re humor and your voice is pleasant to listen to. Being a retired RN I’m interested in what you have to say. I discuss some topics with my chiropractor. lol
@@frankgeorge3437as long as you dont wash the eggs, or keep them in the fridge, very unlikely. Its when you wash them and then keep them out of the fridge where they get warmed that's the danger.
I used whole melon like honeydew, 100 gram of coconut milk and 3 table spoons of sweet condense milk...I have tried with just melon, honey and coconut as well. Heavy cream and egg would be a no go for me.
I have never of most of these Ice Cream Manufacturers names in Scandinavia. Häagen-Diaz is about the only one. There is nothing in the world to beat Italian Ice Cream. They make the best Gelato’s with a wide array of fantastic flavours.
@@moony77 it’s worse than that, actually. Under the FDA guidelines, there are over 11,000 chemicals there are allowed to be called natural flavorings, but every single one of them is a chemical and anything but natural. If it’s a natural flavoring that is truly natural, it must list the ingredient right next to the word “natural flavor”, like (Apple Pectin) or (beets), etc.
I'm surprised you didn't comment on mono & diglycerides present in a lot of options nowadays. From my understanding, this is a way to reclassify hydrogenated oils as emulsifiers and avoid the FDA ban on them! I've noticed they started showing up in protein powders and a lot of "health" products in general.
Ice cream has always been something i can't leave behind.. cigarettes, seed oils, fizzy drinks, carbs etc were far easier to give up than this cold heaven sent food😭 i shall try your recipes, thank you Dr Berg!
This summer I have been snacking on frozen grapes. Not considered Keto, bit I never gain when eating these. Nor am I a fruit lover by nature. But frozen high quality grapes are like bites of the sweetest popsicles, and very cooling on a hot day. I love them!
Wow, i was in my late 40s and ate 1 Ben and Jerry's every night. I would buy them when you could get 2 for one and back then they were only 2.50 a pint. It was during a bad time in my life and it was my happy food. I was up to 230 lbs and wasn't lifting weights at the time. Fast forward to now and im 64 5'10 173 and have been back to lifting 5 days a week for the last 6 years.
That's my story too! I always said that B&J were hypocrites because they promoted social responsibility while feeding us addictive food. I want the FDA to inspect their ingredients to find the evil substance, haha! My favorite was Dastardly Mash (aptly named) which they don't make anymore - probably was banned, lol
Only Haagen Dazs is the only commercial brand even close to real ice cream. It's sad, because Breyer's and Ben & Jerry's used to pride themselves on their ingredients. Now they're junk. Thanks for the recipe (with honey). Will be trying that one out.
@@kathleenwarner4888 If we can believe the label on the vanilla, it's things like cream and vanilla extract. Is there something you know that we don't?
@@kathleenwarner4888 I usually avoid dairy due to lactose intolerance but Haagen daz is the only dairy ice cream I can eat that doesn't upset my stomach.
I've been making my own "ice cream" for a few years. I have an ice cream addiction that I've been struggling with for awhile now. My simple recipe: -⅓ of a large blender cup filled with crushed ice - Fill with unsweetened almond milk about ½ an inch above the ice line - 2-3 teaspoons of King Author sugar substitute (one of the best sugar alternatives I've ever tried; 1-2 grams of carbs per teaspoon) -1 teaspoon real vanilla extract -1-2 pinches of Himalayan salt Blend in a high quality blender. I use a nutribullet. Blend until smooth. If you store it for later, it freezes solid, but if you leave it out to defrost about 20 minutes, you can stir it up and it's ice cream again. 🍦 👍
So grateful for you Dr. Berg. Always so relevant and efficiently informative which is important. Thank you for caring about people especially in the U.S. with its broken Healthcare system/industry. I often feel more hopeful after listening to you. You are making a difference for so many. Truly.
I made mine with raw cream, milk, honey, sea salt and vanilla. Delicious and simple. Added a little fruit. Gonna try other stuff with the basic vanilla.
I made this and substituted vanilla nonfat greek yogurt for the cream. I also used Maple syrup instead of honey. The next day I substituted Molasses for the honey. Both ways delicious 😋.
We grow a lot of organic produce and this year we have had a bumper crop of strawberries. We enjoy them fresh but we simply had too many to keep up with. So strawberries gently simmered and then sieved to get a nice thick juice. Into the icecream maker with whipped thick cream and a drizzle of honey. That's it. Delicious.
Ice cream: Heavy cream, milk, eggs, sugar, real vanilla. I mix the goodies in my Kitchen aid. Freeze the bowl. Every thing goes in as cold as possible. Yep homemade ice cream. Crank or plug in for about 1/2 hour. Then stir in homemade caramel, easy to make. Or grab a can of Hershey's chocolate and mix that in.
I am in love with your channel. You are a natural at teaching. I love ice cream, and I am a vegetarian, so I have tried a couple of them that are vegan, but last time, I had a hard time with strong pain in the left side of my stomach . Decided not to eat it anymore since previously I had another softer but negative experiences with them. I am wondering about Cold Stone because, usually, it works well on me and the Gelatos. Can you provide more information about them? Lately, Baskin Robbins has been tough for my stomach, sometimes including nauseas. I would rather Cold Stone. I love Haggen Daz even though I have had a couple of indigestion eating them and nausea. But, still think they are really goooood. Now I see your take on this scientifically speaking. God bless you and your family 💚🌿🪻
I am a recent cardiac patient. My doctor told me out of all the foods, to avoid it would be ice cream, which is odd, because I was never a heavy ice cream eater. I saw a video where Bryers does not fully melt even after one week due to all the unhealthy added chemicals.
🥳 Van Leeuwen ice cream, handles and Strauss… 3 clean brands with no added garbage. If you’re going to eat ice cream, go ahead and eat it with the cleanest ingredients list…. 1 scoop of the good stuff is better than 3 of the crappy stuff. Good ice cream should just be: cream, sugar, eggs.. and that’s it. (It’s always nice to have some fresh berries and some real vanilla as well).
I wish your ice cream were on the market!!!! You are the best. Thank you for all of your videos. They have helped us so much. The video about the 1.5 billion tons of arsenic used in the U.S. in the last century - most of it in agriculture (weed killers and bug killers and even fertilizers if I recall correctly) had a huge impact on our eating habits and making sure we avoid things that are not organic. And all of your videos. In our entire family, no one has been sick in 5 years. (We follow the Weston Price diet with lots of good pastured animal fats, and buy all raw milk products and pasture animals directly from farms, etc). I am trying the carnivore diet that you did a video on! Thank you so much.
People don't be fooled by Rebel ice cream either because all it takes is a simple Google search to find out their labeling is misleading you are not supposed to subtract ALL of the sugar alcohols to figure out how many grams of carbs per serving! Only subtract half of the sugar alcohols which means for example if you get the butter pecan right on the front it says 4 G net carbs per pint that's absolutely misinformation! Read the label and you will see when you subtract half of the sugar alcohol which is how you do it and you subtract the fiber both of those from the actual carbs it is not 4 total! Also not for nothing when the main ingredient is heavy cream saturated fat clogs your arteries I don't care who you are so typically if a person eats this whole container or even half of it saturated fat is like 15 G which is insanely High be very careful people! Even if you ate half the container of the butter pecan flavor half of it would be 10 carbs total but the saturated fat would STILL be 16 grams! SUPER HIGH!
I remember once I made raw milk ice cream. It was amazing as you would expect, but I remember bringing some to my girlfriend's family and when I told her dad it was raw milk ice cream he yelled at me "Are you trying to kill us?" to which I replied, okay more for me. Some people are very ungrateful.
@@jenniferburchill3658 Then you may have a misunderstanding about bacteria. Not all bacteria is bad. Some bacteria are beneficial. The milk in the shelves might as well be white water.
Its funny how we have been swept aside from all the pure raw food slowly. Im born and raised in Pakistsn and village people there who consume pure food (milk, wheat bread, non processed cane brown sugar, non processed naturally organic fruits and vegetables, etc.) are much more healthy than those city people who are killing themselves with processed food. There's nothing wrong with consuming raw milk in moderate amounts if you able to digest it from early childhood and develop a strong digestive and immune system from early childhood and ofcourse if you do good amount of exercise to make use of that pure food.
I have a grandbaby who couldn't do eggs so i made some ice cream from scratch using 32 oz of half & half, an Avocado for the fat, cocoa powder, sea salt and dates. Stuck it all in a blender, froze it, broke it up, blended it, froze it and blended it. I don't have an ice cream maker. Turned out really good. Very creamy.
That sounds delicious! I make lots and lots of "alternative" ice creams and look forward to trying your recipe. I have not used the avocados in my ice cream recipes but I do use them for an 'alternative' chocolate pudding recipe.
I stopped eating ice cream 🍦 10 years ago due to being lactose intolerant and no matter what I WILL NEVER EAT IT AGAIN. Thank you for caring for us all the way you do. BRAVO 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 Dr. Berg
I have the same problem 😩. I know I should probably just cut the dairy completely out, I went for quite awhile years ago dairy free but gradually fell off the wagon.
🌸 Similar issues, I haven’t eaten real ice cream since I was maybe 10 yrs. I just can’t tolerate dairy since I was child It got worse in 20’s However hard cheese is my weakness, as I crave it If I accidentally ate cheese in anything if it’s mild or soft cheese, omg I die slowly for days Once I was out cold at friends, they nearly called ambulance because I was in so much pain, vomiting etc I still think I am not lactose intolerant and eat a harder cheese, fart like a man and blame it on the pet 😂 Seriously I need to stop eating dairy as my tolerance for it is getting less n less as time goes by and I nearly died last mth after accidentally eating cheese again, it slipped out of pan into my mouth somehow 🤣 I do try be careful 😅
@sunitafisher4758 I haven't been able to drink milk since I was 8 months old. I was able to eat ice cream and cheese, but that's about it. Funny thing is I've never broken any bones in my life, thank God. I know only eat cheese here and there. I'm actually happy that it worked out that way
You are truly a God send, Dr. Berg! I love ice-cream…store bought is absolute crap, and I don’t want to buy another kitchen gadget! Thank you for this video, breaking down the ingredients in the commercial brands, followed by your healthy delicious, 🤗CAN DO recipe! Thank you SOOO much! Love and huge hugs, as always! 🥰🥰🥰
Interesting. I won a commercial gelato machine at an auction for $45. This is the best Ice Cream (Gelato) that I have ever had. The first time I made this I just made it, it was off the cuff without a recipe but after I perfected this recipe. Ingredients 1+ cup of Balkan Yoghurt - the real stuff no fillers except whole milk and culture like Gort's Organic Yoghurt (6% butter fat) 2 cups of frozen raspberries which are totally defrosted 1/4 cup of real maple syrup 1 Tbs of lemon juice (optional) 1 egg (the emulsifier) 1 Tbs rum (the anti-freeze) Method Defrost raspberries - add everything to a bowl - mix with a beater - add to Gelato maker and process for 25-35 minutes - pack and freeze. Makes nearly a litre. I put on 20 pounds so I sold the machine to someone who should have it for $100. I no longer buy ice cream at the grocery store but once a week I permit myself to have an ice cream cone when I go on one of my mini cycle tours.
Simple smoothie twice a week to handle ice cream cravings. Blend 1 cup of ice with a handfuls of raw almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, peanuts. After that add a roughly chopped half of a frozen banana, half of a small avocado, tablespoon of pea protein, tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, frozen blueberries and strawberries, dash of cinnamon, 1 cup of almond milk a bit at a time for preferred thickness and 2 teaspoons of vanilla. Alter the type of fruit and or milk to your taste and dietary needs. Blend it all. Superfood low cholesterol and low carb. So good.
I'm watching this while eating 1 serving of a butter pecan Haagen-Dazs pint. I like the balance of the healthy fat in the pecans and the sugar in the ice cream but I wish there was no corn syrup in it. Thanks for this video!
Thank you Dr. Berg for reviewing all the store bought Ice cream. We decided to buy and make our own ice cream. We tried your recipe this morning after watching your podcast. It was the creamiest ice cream we have ever made to date. Our recipe was 2 C. Hvy Cream Organic, 4 egg yokes, 3 TBSP Whole Earth Monkfruit/erythritol, 1 TBSP vanilla, pinch of salt. Blended and put into the ice cream maker. Added fresh cherries or any berry fruit. Thank you Dr. Berg!
General question... WHAT are "natural flavors"??? Scary, I think, when vanilla ice cream ingredients list "vanilla" AND natural flavors. What would that be? So many products list it. I make my own.
I'm trying to stop my addiction to ice cream. Especially if they're on sale, like 2 for $6. Turkey Hill, Bryers. I was starting to eat both cartons in just about one to two days. It messes with my digestive system. Today, I really struggled to avoid going to the grocery store to buy it. Talk about illegal drugs and alcohol. Sugar can be just as bad.
Thank you Dr Berg for this very helpful video! I always wondered which ice cream was really best. The labels can be confusing but your info helps a lot! There again sticking with homemade ice cream is the most healthy thing and more fun too! There are times I just want to eat ice cream when it's 100° outside ❤
I'm so glad you solved the mystery of what ended up happening to the ice cream you were working on. I remember your video that you came up with a keto friendly ice cream that was unbelievable so me and my wife were so excited to try it when you made it available.....and then a few years went by and never heard anything more about it and just in the past few months it came across my mind and I just said to myself there must have been some type of complications with your recipe so I'm so glad at least I know now why you never made it available...what a shame, we were looking forward to some healthier type of ice cream!!! I haven't had any in a few years and it's the one thing out of a few things that I still miss!
Make my own. Heavy whipping cream, dash of milk, real vanilla, tsp of cinnamon. Toss in machine until it's ice cream. NO SWEETENER (cinnamon is slightly sweet), so the high fat content limits how much I eat at one time. Throw a few blueberries on it if desired. No carb overload. All the fun of a dish of ice cream, without the risk
Thank you very much for this video. You were speaking to me. I also used Bryer's vanilla for insomnia and it worked not knowing this was a sugar coma. I will try my own now especially after reading some of the helpful comments here. In my country we make ice-cream using our local ingredients. So we have coconut ice-cream, soursop, barbadine, rum and raisin etc. But as you were speaking I checked my soursop ice-cream in the fridge and it contained way too much sugar. We don't use egg yolks in ice-cream. Will make my own from today.
I heard someone say other day ,that Braums ice cream is real ice cream. I went yesterday to read some lables. Wow! The amount of artificial ingredients in most were crazy! Especially the ones marketed for kids! Those were the worse! I'm not big on sweets but I do enjoy a small amount of ice cream or a snow cone here and there so I make my own and the syrups too.
Healthy selfmade icecream from a mixer: 300 gram frozen berries 200 ml whole milk 1-2 teaspoons real raw honey Eat as much as you want. Healthy and delicious This is a variant from the german kitchen aid recipe (Thermomix)
@@sharongarrett4356 yeah my wife too she is lactose intolerant. But this is such a nice recipe you can give kids as much ice as they want no bad conscience.
I discovered that pure maple syrup doesn't raise my blood sugar near as much as honey. If I really want something sweet I'll mix in a few drops of stevia and a small amount of maple syrup.
3 cups heavy cream from local grass feed cows, I pint strawberries chopped, 1/4 cup monk fruit sugar, 2 teaspoons vanilla. Mix together and add to an ice cream maker, cool/blend for 20 minutes. Yum!
Strawberries should be organic. The worst pesticides are used on strawberries ! The one fruit you should not eat conventionally grown is strawberries. That's what I read anyway. Who knows. Look it up
Omgoodness. I’ve been eating Rebel ice cream lately not for the calories but for the low sugar content!! I like to keep a bit of weight on after 50, but I have to watch my sugar intake! Hi doc. Looking great with those glasses on!
Ice cream tasted better when I was a kid back in the 1970s, because my grandparents had an ice cream maker. The ingredients were all natural. I'm not just being nostalgic either.
Oh yeah, those old fashioned ice cream makers make the best tasting ice cream!
Lucky you, I’ve never had the treat of having truly homemade ice cream. I’ve always wanted it to.

Anything made by a “major food company” can essentially be considered poison.
@@nicholasdickens2801 That is the truth. I live close to several beach resort towns and we have two local "Homemade Ice Cream" companies in the area. Although both have long since abandoned the in house small town ice cream making of the 60s, both still use fresh local ingredients and manufacture close to their retail stores and both far outperform national ice cream brands.
exactly!
Start reading the ingredients. If it’s bioengineered, do not buy the item. Bioengineered food has been around since 1994, the thing is, it wasn’t put on the back of the items until they were made to.
@@karengordon6610I turn packages around so people hopefully see the ingredients.
Absolutely; I live in Texas which is known for Blue Bell, but their quality of ingredients is absolutely TERRIBLE. So much artificial crap! There are way better options made by smaller manufacturers.
I'm glad he repeatedly called out the sugar alcohol. I effing HATE when companies use that as their sugar substitute. There's of course the famous gummy bear review of the guy that consumed a large bag sweetened with sugar alcohol...
Protein bars are especially guilty of this. Allulose and Monk fruit are definitely top tier as far as sugar substitutes. Stevia is OK is small quantities, but when it's the primary source it has a weird bitter flavor.
I would often honestly take raw honey as a sweetener over any substitute other than the aforementioned.
Happy to know Häagen-Dazs isn't that bad but lucky me I just bought an ice cream machine to make my own now I can make protein ice cream.
That is the way to go
In my country, Indonesia, we made traditional ice cream using coconut milk, shredded coconut, a little salt, and unrefined cane sugar. Just blend everthing with crushed ice cubes, then stir it vigoriously. Sometimes we add boiled mung beans, or red beans, or avocado or jackfruit or pandanus leaf for variety of flavour. No artificial ingredients and it's really YUMMY!!
Ok, that sounds great! 🎉
Omg that sounds so delicious !!! Now I’m sad 😞 that I don’t have easy access to it

Homemade ice cream recipe:
1 cup organic grass-fed heavy cream
2 pasture-raised, organic egg yolks
3 tbsp powdered allulose or 1 tbsp honey
1 pinch sea salt
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
½ cup pecans or walnuts (optional)
Directions:
Blend the ingredients and freeze for 4 to 5 hours.
Thank you Dr Berg!
Bon Meowpetite!😺🍧
thank you fidel
Hell yeah
I take cottage cheese and blend it in a pint of ice cream so it’s high in protein and a little better for you
Isn't there a risk of salmonella because of the raw uncooked eggs?
@@danielwood6578🌸 I can remember some chefs on TV used powder in their ice cream
It must have been either custard powder or egg powder, if you Google it, I bet you can find healthy one
I make my ice cream with frozen bananas to form ice base, another frozen fruit, then I put either healthy yogurt bought or I make it myself. Make sure there is no added sugar in that yogurt 😊
Blend and put in freezer, it will taste like ice cream , but you have to consume it in 3 days 😊
Thanks for trying to develop the perfect ice cream brand! Ice cream lovers around the world thank you for your service. 😊
I tried his recipe and it's not ice cream; it's frozen dessert. You need an actual churn to make ice cream; blending the ingredients and sticking them in the freezer is not enough.
My husband always made ice cream. Now though, it's Haagen Dazs. Chocolate, Strawberry, or Vanilla Bean.
Have you noticed adverse affects? More sugar cravings? Etc
It's nice that Dr.Berg told us about his venture in the ice-cream market! I REALLY appreciate when people talk about their failures or setbacks, it takes guts, transparency and maturity to do so.
In a world made of shadows, mirrors an fakeness, it's always refreshing to see true people that talk about their real experiences (good or bad).
Thank you!
same.
I don't think it had to be a fail, however, Perhaps just an explanation of the process on the label. I would have loved to try it. I appreciate that he tried to bring that to the people.
Remember the Ice Cream Test w/ Turkey Hill Brand.. It wouldn't Melt..... it so full of a horrid substance .. so Scary ..I won't buy their products i.e drinks etc
This is why I buy his supplements. In his videos he talks about how and why his supplements are better than the competition. He discusses not putting shady fillers or ingredients in them. It sold me.
Can't believe they made 20,000 units for a first run. Should have tried a lot less the first time.
@@JustIceForSake well said!
I gave up on ice cream 18 months ago. Really not missing it at all. Went on a healthy keto diet and have lost 44lbs. Have to stick with it. It’s my new normal.
44 lbs in 18 months? Ouch.
Way to go! Good job! 👏🏼
@@barryjames73 Very doable. I stopped eating bread/grains and drinking beer casually on the weekends and lost 25 pounds in 2 weeks, and I didn't think I had that much to lose as I keep in pretty good shape for my age.
Salute to you 🫡 I've changed my diet as well along with fasting I've lost over 80lbs this year!
Congratulations!
I`ve always thought Ben and Jerry`s was the worst ice cream you can eat, and it has nothing to do with the ingredients.

That's hilarious 😂 good one!!

@@Abena_Goddess87 Why would you ask him that?
6:29 _No Sugar Added_ does not mean there is no sugar in the product.
It just means that if there is sugar in the product, they didn't add it.
It was already there.
I remember the original Breyers vanilla when my parents bought ice cream cones for me and my sister from a true grandma and grandpa candy shop over 45 years ago when it WAS ONLY TRULY MILK, CREAM, SUGAR, AND VANILLA before they destroyed it🤮
Breyers used to be the only ice cream I would buy. I won't touch it today. It is awful.
When did the recipe change, roughly?
That's all I buy. It's their Natural Vanilla flavor. Then we add our own nummy foods for variety.
Yes…Breyers use to be the best before they destroyed it.
Yup, I used to love Breyers too. It went downhill fast. It's worse than the cheapest brands now.
I put frozen raspberries (or other berries) in the blender and mix with cream. Thats it.
Me too! Frozen berries and cream is all you need.
It works well, but sometimes I want other flavors.
You can also freeze whipping cream into cubes. Blend the cream cubes with vanilla extract and honey (optional).
Or blend cream with frozen banana slices.
Same here😋
I mix berries with yogurt and raw milk
THANK YOU! THANK YOU!😊
The only Ice Cream we eat we make. Straus Organic Cream and Milk. Quarter cup organic sugar. Organic Vanilla and then whatever we might like it flavored with. Organic cream cheese has been working out really well. All part of the food do-over my wife and I have been on for the last couple years. What we can make from scratch we make.

🎉🎉
I just quickly saw the name of the post and I have a question. How do you begin to stop eating sugar. I have such a bad sweet tooth habit and I'm quit overweight. I know of one person that told me they don't eat sugar.
@@representing50plus
Stop eating anything GMO! That will solve many of your health and weight problems.
Your body is starving, GMOs are referred to as Franken food, they have been stuffed with roundup and the seed itself has been 'redesigned' by extremly evil men!Look it up study this, corn and soy are deadly for our bodies and most everything has some sort of these two in them. Our beef and chicken most meats are fed with this stuff.
You are fat because you stay hungry and can't resist stuffing yourself with poison!
Start reading labels, start feeding your body with nonGMO.
Wow inspiring 🥰🥰🥰
🌸 for me it’s 3 yrs for me now 🎉
So happy I came off sugar and I don’t miss it 😊
@@representing50plus🌸 I can tell you how I did it, I started by cutting back on all sweets first
I removed it from all hot drinks, and had my tea without. I took earl grey because it’s fragrant and mixed with a fruit berry one
It tasted so good that I didn’t need sugar
I also cut back on all fried foods, as I noticed that made me crave sugary foods
I then cut all sweets once I felt ready. I did fall off the wagon and knew I needed something more drastic
Mental Reprogram:
So I envisioned myself looking at table with all healthy foods and I stood just behind it in my ideal form, healthy and happy
Then I envisioned another table filled with all junk foods, I saw very disfigured me, because of diabetes etc
I pictured vermin crawling all over it, putrid waste all over it
Human hair etc, anything to cause a mental reprogram so that I associated good whole foods with healthy life and bad foods with vile things and health problems
Vision Board:-
I wrote my goals on vision board and I saw it day n night in my bedroom
I celebrated any small wins and I exercised gently daily, within 3 months I got flat stomach, healthy body
It is very easy to maintain once you start and once 3 weeks went by my cravings for sugar stopped
I used healthy sugar sweeteners for anything I needed to be sweet
I removed all sauces, I never went near bakery etc. I made my own keto friendly sweets using free RUclips recipes
I hope that helps, one 1 mth turn into months you start to taste food and even detect more flavours sugar was concealing
After long while I started to eat fruits again and that became my only source of sugar and I never ate any too sweet
Just enough fruits so I got vit c 😊
I used to get sleep the same way he did. I call it "Intermittent Fatting" I got sleep, but I also got extra blubber.

Added humor? Dr Berg has been funny as long as I've been watching him... which is several years now... and much of the time, I dont think hes even trying to be funny 😂
awesome video, Dr. Berg. my family had an ice cream maker when I was growing up and made it on occasion, but it was like three ingredients if I recall and you had to have that rock salt. it really taste pure..
We have a guy who makes ice cream in the area and sells it in a food truck. Best stuff I ever had and he doesn’t use any sugar. Mainly organic local heavy cream.
Any added sugar. Lactose is also a sugar.
Although there isn't too much of it in natural dairy.
I'll pass.....foodtruck???? Lol
@@lexseec6124 what's wrong with that?
Then how is it sweet?
I need to try it.
Here's my chocolate ice cream recipe: 16 ounces of heavy cream, 16 ounces of whole milk or coconut milk, 3-4 tablespoons cocoa powder, 6 to 8 tablespoons allulose/monk fruit powder, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, half cup almonds (optional). Shake up in a 5 cup Rubbermaid container with a lid and freeze overnight.
Nice!
Can you blend it in a blender instead of shake it?
I use almond milk instead of whole milk because of the sugar but otherwise hell yeah
@@meldenedorn8585 You can, but just know that the milk will tend to get frothy, so don't do that too much to it. I sometimes use a small whisk and add the milks a little at a time and shake in between adding more milk/cream.
2 healthiest homemade 'ice creams' .... but actually 1960's style of 'Fudgesicles' ....
(1) Avocados, Cocoa Powder, non-sweet full fat Coconut Milk, Stevia, Pure Vanilla Extract
(2) Bananas, Cocoa Powder, non-sweet full fat Coconut Milk, Stevia, Pure Vanilla Extract
Either one! Blend it, pour into molds, add sticks, freeze. Voila, 1960's Fudgesicles !!!
This doctor 💊 has very good arguments! Wow! He should get the Noble Prize for saving lives!! Thanks Dr. Berg!! ☮️♾️♾️♾️☮️
Breyers isn't ice cream anymore either. You blurred out the picture, but at 1:22 you can see that at the bottom of the carton it also says "something something frozen dairy dessert" in white letters.
My favorite flavor and the ice cream with the best, all natural ingredients that's widely available is Haagen-Dazs Vanilla Bean.
INGREDIENTS:
Cream
Skim Milk
Cane Sugar
Egg Yolks
Ground Vanilla Beans
Yes and I love the Strawberry.
Love pineapple
The chocolate ice cream is also delicious. Same clean ingredients.
I tried something different: I use a inexpensive home ice cream maker, and mix low carb protein shakes with 1/2 cup heavy cream and half the water for the shake mix ( or less) . you will need 2 servings of shake mix, some sticks to the machine, but it makes a very satisfying dessert. If I'm doing it after dinner I use a Casein protein mix like cookies and cream, and it helps me sleep through the night! Add fresh berries, nuts, whatever you like! Following Dr. Berg, in 18 months I lost 75 lbs., down to 205 and off prescription blood pressure meds I have been on for 10 YEARS! Thank you Dr Berg for your no nonsense information!
Congratulations 👍🎉
@johnheadley7650 sounds nice! Would freezing it not break the aminoacids in the protein, though?
he made this video because as he walks home he feels its too hot out and he had enough lol
I was in Paris near the Nortre Dame. There was a Haagen Dazs stand, so I got some. It's the only ice cream that I eat. To p-off the snobby Parisians in line, I told them that H-D is an American brand. They sneered at me and said, "You are misinformed. It's Danish". I told them to "google it". That made my day....
🤣🤣🤣
On the rare occasion when I just gotta have some ice cream, and can't make my own, I go for Haagen Dazs Vanilla or Coffee only. They are the only 2 (I think Pistachio too, actually) that don't have "natural flavors" added. Just 4 ingredients. Not organic of course, but better than anything else in the regular grocery store.
That is exactly me! I have cut way down on ice cream, but will always choose Haagen Daz over anything else, even homemade ice cream at the stands.
@@dianemackey Same here, my fav is Swiss Vanilla Almond.
Same! I’ll do the chocolate too on special occasions
@@mrlafayette1964
I dislike the chocolate on the almonds in this one. Will not melt in your mouth, resembles wax to me. I'm sure this chocolate contains paraffin.
The one I loved was the vanilla with the fudge swirls that ran through it. They quit making it for some reason.
I just do Häagen-Dazs as well, and just the absolute plain flavors. Vanilla, chocolate, or coffee.
My go to "ice cream" is blending frozen berries with kefir. That's all I use.
That sounds good.
Trying this next, sounds beneficial and tasty
Does the kefir make the ice cream taste similar to frozen yogurt? 💚☘️💚 I’m going to try your recipe too!
Great idea!
I'm going to try this, thanks. I've been blending frozen bananas and cacao powder. Cheers
I eat anything I want with moderation. I'm not worried about a dessert, which I eat only occasionally, being healthy. Moderation is key.
I love icecream too! We are so glad you do not use the filter on your face anymore like in previous videos- so much better. We like honesty. Thank you!
I think I'll go celebrate this info with a pint of Hagen Daz 😊
😆💓
😂😂👍👍
Or the magnum ice cream bars 🤤
Me too! I like real ingredients. I just do not eat it very often. Haagen Daz is the best as far as I am concerned. I usually only eat ice cream in the summer and only in moderation.
Breyers changed their formula a long time ago I think.
Glad your ok with rebel, been able to eat that ice cream and doing keto and intermittent fasting for 2 yrs lost 50 lbs and kept it off, food actually taste better and is more satisfying doing the healthy keto diet.
If you "need" a treat of ice cream, Rebel is the way, IMHO. happy to have found it yrs ago. But, homemade is ideal for ingredient control. A little time spent and you can compliment yourself on your culinary wizardry.
All my local stores stopped carrying Rebel and I'm SO mad about it. I would buy a pint once or twice a month. Yes, I would eat the entire pint in one sitting, but I was eating it seldom enough that that wasn't a problem.
I eat 2 pints a year and make it last 4 days per pint 😂 @@HappilyCarnivore
Rebel tastes like cardboard.
@@maddisonbythesea3015 got to copy some of that control
I love making my own “ice cream” in the Ninja Creami!
I don't eat ice cream very often because store bought ice creams affect my cognitive ability. It seems to be the "gums" they use that shut down my thinking and processing ability.
I stick with homemade ice cream - from scratch. (Which I rarely make!) My recipe might not be the healthiest, but my brain functions normally.
Thank for the great info - especially the recipes.
I have always chosen Häagen-Dazs, not really out of concern for sugar content but merely the fact that the ingredients list is the shortest and most natural compared to other ice creams. Their basic flavors even have the certified non-GMO label on them. Any other flavors of Häagen-Dazs though beyond chocolate, strawberry and vanilla aren’t anywhere near as natural and also aren’t certified non-GMO. Their chocolate is amazing. Very rich cocoa flavor with just enough sweetness, but not excessively sweet like most chocolate ice cream.
I'm never going to make ice cream, so H-Daz is the only one I buy, for the same reasons you listed.
Vanilla is my go-to. I can add my own fruit, nuts, cookies or broken candy bar if I want to jazz it up.
@@savage22bolt32same only buy haagen daz vanilla
"Natural flavorings" could be anything.
I always assume it's very toxic when they list that vague ingredient
Neurotoxic for sure
@@ChelseaChfy-ex1po Or it could be Beaver Butt Juice!!! That's natural. 😅
Yep. I believe arsenic is also natural.
@winsomewife7112 you are right lol, that Natural Flavorings could be all Natural Crude Oil lol. You never know.
When I contact a company asking about what are their natural ingredients and asking if it is sugar the only think they will tell me is avoid their product if I have any concerns. They won't tell me what it is.
I love you’re humor and your voice is pleasant to listen to. Being a retired RN I’m interested in what you have to say. I discuss some topics with my chiropractor. lol

I’d LOVE to know what these companies consider a “natural flavoring”
Exactly! It’s PROPRIETARY 🥴
@@moony77 it’s worse than that, actually. Under the FDA guidelines, there are over 11,000 chemicals there are allowed to be called natural flavorings, but every single one of them is a chemical and anything but natural.
If it’s a natural flavoring that is truly natural, it must list the ingredient right next to the word “natural flavor”, like (Apple Pectin) or (beets), etc.
9/10, usually under cover for Monosodium Glutamate, a flavor enhancer. Not good ! addictive !
No you don't. 😄
Avoid!
I'm surprised you didn't comment on mono & diglycerides present in a lot of options nowadays. From my understanding, this is a way to reclassify hydrogenated oils as emulsifiers and avoid the FDA ban on them! I've noticed they started showing up in protein powders and a lot of "health" products in general.

Wow, i was in my late 40s and ate 1 Ben and Jerry's every night. I would buy them when you could get 2 for one and back then they were only 2.50 a pint.

Fast forward to now and im 64 5'10 173 and have been back to lifting 5 days a week for the last 6 years.
That's my story too! I always said that B&J were hypocrites because they promoted social responsibility while feeding us addictive food. I want the FDA to inspect their ingredients to find the evil substance, haha! My favorite was Dastardly Mash (aptly named) which they don't make anymore - probably was banned, lol
Awesome.

Only Haagen Dazs is the only commercial brand even close to real ice cream. It's sad, because Breyer's and Ben & Jerry's used to pride themselves on their ingredients. Now they're junk. Thanks for the recipe (with honey). Will be trying that one out.
Yes sold their souls to Uniliver and of course profits over product.
Which of them all are you going to try?
Hagen daz has horrible ingredients
@@kathleenwarner4888 If we can believe the label on the vanilla, it's things like cream and vanilla extract. Is there something you know that we don't?
@@kathleenwarner4888 I usually avoid dairy due to lactose intolerance but Haagen daz is the only dairy ice cream I can eat that doesn't upset my stomach.
1. Frozen bananas
2. Milk/oat milk/almond milk/etc
3. Cocoa or carob powder
4. Few ice cubes
Blend until the consistency of ice cream
I've been making my own "ice cream" for a few years. I have an ice cream addiction that I've been struggling with for awhile now.
My simple recipe:
-⅓ of a large blender cup filled with crushed ice
- Fill with unsweetened almond milk about ½ an inch above the ice line
- 2-3 teaspoons of King Author sugar substitute (one of the best sugar alternatives I've ever tried; 1-2 grams of carbs per teaspoon)
-1 teaspoon real vanilla extract
-1-2 pinches of Himalayan salt
Blend in a high quality blender. I use a nutribullet.
Blend until smooth. If you store it for later, it freezes solid, but if you leave it out to defrost about 20 minutes, you can stir it up and it's ice cream again. 🍦 👍

I made mine with raw cream, milk, honey, sea salt and vanilla. Delicious and simple. Added a little fruit. Gonna try other stuff with the basic vanilla.
Yum!
I commented on a Rebel post to request pumpkin ice cream for this fall season. Gotta have it!
I made this and substituted vanilla nonfat greek yogurt for the cream. I also used Maple syrup instead of honey. The next day I substituted Molasses for the honey. Both ways delicious 😋.
I was literally browsing through ice cream online for curbside pick up lol. Oops caught haha I never expected an ice cream video from this channel!
We grow a lot of organic produce and this year we have had a bumper crop of strawberries. We enjoy them fresh but we simply had too many to keep up with. So strawberries gently simmered and then sieved to get a nice thick juice. Into the icecream maker with whipped thick cream and a drizzle of honey. That's it. Delicious.
What is your exact recipe? It sounds delicious.
Sounds wonderful but I’d skip the sieve as love the berries too.
Ice cream: Heavy cream, milk, eggs, sugar, real vanilla. I mix the goodies in my Kitchen aid. Freeze the bowl. Every thing goes in as cold as possible. Yep homemade ice cream. Crank or plug in for about 1/2 hour. Then stir in homemade caramel, easy to make. Or grab a can of Hershey's chocolate and mix that in.
I am in love with your channel. You are a natural at teaching.
I love ice cream, and I am a vegetarian, so I have tried a couple of them that are vegan, but last time, I had a hard time with strong pain in the left side of my stomach . Decided not to eat it anymore since previously I had another softer but negative experiences with them.
I am wondering about Cold Stone because, usually, it works well on me and the Gelatos. Can you provide more information about them?
Lately, Baskin Robbins has been tough for my stomach, sometimes including nauseas. I would rather Cold Stone.
I love Haggen Daz even though I have had a couple of indigestion eating them and nausea. But, still think they are really goooood. Now I see your take on this scientifically speaking.

I am a recent cardiac patient. My doctor told me out of all the foods, to avoid it would be ice cream, which is odd, because I was never a heavy ice cream eater. I saw a video where Bryers does not fully melt even after one week due to all the unhealthy added chemicals.
😱😱😱
We had the same situation with "Perry's" ice cream. We put it out side and it lasted a while
🥳 Van Leeuwen ice cream, handles and Strauss… 3 clean brands with no added garbage. If you’re going to eat ice cream, go ahead and eat it with the cleanest ingredients list…. 1 scoop of the good stuff is better than 3 of the crappy stuff. Good ice cream should just be: cream, sugar, eggs.. and that’s it. (It’s always nice to have some fresh berries and some real vanilla as well).
Give Cremily a try. It's a pretty clean keto ice cream and it's really good.
I wish your ice cream were on the market!!!! You are the best. Thank you for all of your videos. They have helped us so much. The video about the 1.5 billion tons of arsenic used in the U.S. in the last century - most of it in agriculture (weed killers and bug killers and even fertilizers if I recall correctly) had a huge impact on our eating habits and making sure we avoid things that are not organic. And all of your videos. In our entire family, no one has been sick in 5 years. (We follow the Weston Price diet with lots of good pastured animal fats, and buy all raw milk products and pasture animals directly from farms, etc). I am trying the carnivore diet that you did a video on! Thank you so much.
I've been eating Rebel ice cream for years...glad it gets the green check mark:+) God bless~
Rebel is the best! I tried all
Of them.
People don't be fooled by Rebel ice cream either because all it takes is a simple Google search to find out their labeling is misleading you are not supposed to subtract ALL of the sugar alcohols to figure out how many grams of carbs per serving! Only subtract half of the sugar alcohols which means for example if you get the butter pecan right on the front it says 4 G net carbs per pint that's absolutely misinformation! Read the label and you will see when you subtract half of the sugar alcohol which is how you do it and you subtract the fiber both of those from the actual carbs it is not 4 total! Also not for nothing when the main ingredient is heavy cream saturated fat clogs your arteries I don't care who you are so typically if a person eats this whole container or even half of it saturated fat is like 15 G which is insanely High be very careful people! Even if you ate half the container of the butter pecan flavor half of it would be 10 carbs total but the saturated fat would STILL be 16 grams! SUPER HIGH!

There's nothing wrong with consuming raw milk in moderate amounts if you able to digest it from early childhood and develop a strong digestive and immune system from early childhood and ofcourse if you do good amount of exercise to make use of that pure food.
Nice to have another reason to avoid Ben and Jerrys
Alden's Organic Ice Cream , made in Oregon. Delicious. Their Strawberry is incredible!
I have a grandbaby who couldn't do eggs so i made some ice cream from scratch using 32 oz of half & half, an Avocado for the fat, cocoa powder, sea salt and dates. Stuck it all in a blender, froze it, broke it up, blended it, froze it and blended it. I don't have an ice cream maker. Turned out really good. Very creamy.
I'm not gonna lie I think that sounds disgusting 😂 maybe that's why I'm fat
Duck or quail eggs are alternatives to chicken eggs.
That sounds delicious! I make lots and lots of "alternative" ice creams and look forward to trying your recipe. I have not used the avocados in my ice cream recipes but I do use them for an 'alternative' chocolate pudding recipe.
@@kevinkelly1529 I’ve seen recipes like that. It sounds delicious. My daughter in law made avocado fudge no too long ago. It was pretty good, too.
@@Bruce_Wayne35 Yes! We found that out this year 😊but I didn’t have any on me that day so I used what I had 😉😋
I stopped eating ice cream 🍦 10 years ago due to being lactose intolerant and no matter what I WILL NEVER EAT IT AGAIN. Thank you for caring for us all the way you do. BRAVO 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 Dr. Berg
I have the same problem 😩. I know I should probably just cut the dairy completely out, I went for quite awhile years ago dairy free but gradually fell off the wagon.
🌸 Similar issues, I haven’t eaten real ice cream since I was maybe 10 yrs. I just can’t tolerate dairy since I was child
It got worse in 20’s
However hard cheese is my weakness, as I crave it
If I accidentally ate cheese in anything if it’s mild or soft cheese, omg I die slowly for days
Once I was out cold at friends, they nearly called ambulance because I was in so much pain, vomiting etc
I still think I am not lactose intolerant and eat a harder cheese, fart like a man and blame it on the pet 😂
Seriously I need to stop eating dairy as my tolerance for it is getting less n less as time goes by and I nearly died last mth after accidentally eating cheese again, it slipped out of pan into my mouth somehow 🤣
I do try be careful 😅
@sunitafisher4758 I haven't been able to drink milk since I was 8 months old. I was able to eat ice cream and cheese, but that's about it. Funny thing is I've never broken any bones in my life, thank God. I know only eat cheese here and there. I'm actually happy that it worked out that way
Raw cow milk
I do tolerate lactose but I don't eat ice cream, I see no need
Thank you for educating us. I read all labels but it is hard to keep up with all the crap manufactures put in food,
Very glad to be of help.
You are truly a God send, Dr. Berg! I love ice-cream…store bought is absolute crap, and I don’t want to buy another kitchen gadget! Thank you for this video, breaking down the ingredients in the commercial brands, followed by your healthy delicious, 🤗CAN DO recipe! Thank you SOOO much! Love and huge hugs, as always! 🥰🥰🥰
Very welcome, enjoy!
Interesting. I won a commercial gelato machine at an auction for $45. This is the best Ice Cream (Gelato) that I have ever had. The first time I made this I just made it, it was off the cuff without a recipe but after I perfected this recipe.
Ingredients
1+ cup of Balkan Yoghurt - the real stuff no fillers except whole milk and culture like Gort's Organic Yoghurt (6% butter fat)
2 cups of frozen raspberries which are totally defrosted
1/4 cup of real maple syrup
1 Tbs of lemon juice (optional)
1 egg (the emulsifier)
1 Tbs rum (the anti-freeze)
Method
Defrost raspberries - add everything to a bowl - mix with a beater - add to Gelato maker and process for 25-35 minutes - pack and freeze. Makes nearly a litre.
I put on 20 pounds so I sold the machine to someone who should have it for $100. I no longer buy ice cream at the grocery store but once a week I permit myself to have an ice cream cone when I go on one of my mini cycle tours.
I love the humor mixed w slow voice parts ❤
👍🏽😂
Simple smoothie twice a week to handle ice cream cravings. Blend 1 cup of ice with a handfuls of raw almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, peanuts. After that add a roughly chopped half of a frozen banana, half of a small avocado, tablespoon of pea protein, tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, frozen blueberries and strawberries, dash of cinnamon, 1 cup of almond milk a bit at a time for preferred thickness and 2 teaspoons of vanilla. Alter the type of fruit and or milk to your taste and dietary needs. Blend it all. Superfood low cholesterol and low carb. So good.
I'm watching this while eating 1 serving of a butter pecan Haagen-Dazs pint. I like the balance of the healthy fat in the pecans and the sugar in the ice cream but I wish there was no corn syrup in it. Thanks for this video!
Thank you Dr. Berg for reviewing all the store bought Ice cream. We decided to buy and make our own ice cream. We tried your recipe this morning after watching your podcast. It was the creamiest ice cream we have ever made to date.
Our recipe was 2 C. Hvy Cream Organic, 4 egg yokes,
3 TBSP Whole Earth Monkfruit/erythritol, 1 TBSP vanilla, pinch of salt. Blended and put into the ice cream maker. Added fresh cherries or any berry fruit. Thank you Dr. Berg!
General question... WHAT are "natural flavors"??? Scary, I think, when vanilla ice cream ingredients list "vanilla" AND natural flavors. What would that be? So many products list it. I make my own.
Natural flavors could be anything!... that's where they hide the really bad stuff
Human remains
@@michelledee2586 What a world, huh?!
It's a custard you cook until it thickens. Eggs are tempered then cooked. We used to make ice cream in the 60's. Very good.
I'm trying to stop my addiction to ice cream. Especially if they're on sale, like 2 for $6. Turkey Hill, Bryers. I was starting to eat both cartons in just about one to two days. It messes with my digestive system. Today, I really struggled to avoid going to the grocery store to buy it. Talk about illegal drugs and alcohol. Sugar can be just as bad.
Thanks for sharing, doctor! Your message is simple and highly valuable.
Thank you Dr Berg for this very helpful video! I always wondered which ice cream was really best. The labels can be confusing but your info helps a lot! There again sticking with homemade ice cream is the most healthy thing and more fun too! There are times I just want to eat ice cream when it's 100° outside ❤
Best ice cream IMO ‘Van Leewen’ vanilla flavor. Chef’s kiss! 💋
Thank you for another outstanding and very informative video.
You're absolutely welcome!
I'm so glad you solved the mystery of what ended up happening to the ice cream you were working on. I remember your video that you came up with a keto friendly ice cream that was unbelievable so me and my wife were so excited to try it when you made it available.....and then a few years went by and never heard anything more about it and just in the past few months it came across my mind and I just said to myself there must have been some type of complications with your recipe so I'm so glad at least I know now why you never made it available...what a shame, we were looking forward to some healthier type of ice cream!!! I haven't had any in a few years and it's the one thing out of a few things that I still miss!
Make my own. Heavy whipping cream, dash of milk, real vanilla, tsp of cinnamon. Toss in machine until it's ice cream. NO SWEETENER (cinnamon is slightly sweet), so the high fat content limits how much I eat at one time. Throw a few blueberries on it if desired. No carb overload. All the fun of a dish of ice cream, without the risk
THANK YOU SO MUCH DR BERG FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE & ICE CREAM RECIPE! 🫶
Glad to know that you liked this post!
Haagen-Dazs ice cream is literal poison for my IBS.
After this I'm making my own, but I still love my Hagen Daz❤😊
So apparenly, Haagen Dazs is a healthier brand. Enjoy it! It's my favourite brand too!
Mine too, but I am going to make my own now.
Thank you very much for this video. You were speaking to me. I also used Bryer's vanilla for insomnia and it worked not knowing this was a sugar coma. I will try my own now especially after reading some of the helpful comments here. In my country we make ice-cream using our local ingredients. So we have coconut ice-cream, soursop, barbadine, rum and raisin etc. But as you were speaking I checked my soursop ice-cream in the fridge and it contained way too much sugar. We don't use egg yolks in ice-cream. Will make my own from today.
I heard someone say other day ,that Braums ice cream is real ice cream. I went yesterday to read some lables. Wow! The amount of artificial ingredients in most were crazy! Especially the ones marketed for kids! Those were the worse! I'm not big on sweets but I do enjoy a small amount of ice cream or a snow cone here and there so I make my own and the syrups too.
Wow you got me on Breyers. All these years i thought it was one of the healthiest!
Healthy selfmade icecream from a mixer:
300 gram frozen berries
200 ml whole milk
1-2 teaspoons real raw honey
Eat as much as you want. Healthy and delicious
This is a variant from the german kitchen aid recipe (Thermomix)
Same, but I use unsweetened almond milk.
@@sharongarrett4356 yeah my wife too she is lactose intolerant. But this is such a nice recipe you can give kids as much ice as they want no bad conscience.
Almond milk is processed garbage.
I discovered that pure maple syrup doesn't raise my blood sugar near as much as honey. If I really want something sweet I'll mix in a few drops of stevia and a small amount of maple syrup.
@@alayadeluce Yeah I do not know much about maple syrup. But we have beekeepers around here in Germany
3 cups heavy cream from local grass feed cows, I pint strawberries chopped, 1/4 cup monk fruit sugar, 2 teaspoons vanilla. Mix together and add to an ice cream maker, cool/blend for 20 minutes. Yum!
Strawberries should be organic. The worst pesticides are used on strawberries ! The one fruit you should not eat conventionally grown is strawberries. That's what I read anyway. Who knows. Look it up
My go to ice cream is Blue Bell homemade vanilla.
I like Nick's. It's low carb, no sugar, stevia. Rebel, as u mentioned is great. Just moderation. Thank u
Omgoodness. I’ve been eating Rebel ice cream lately not for the calories but for the low sugar content!! I like to keep a bit of weight on after 50, but I have to watch my sugar intake!
Hi doc. Looking great with those glasses on!
