I love the way Dr. Robert Lustig put it (paraphrase): "When nature packages sugar, it always packages it with the antidote - fiber." We are the only creatures in the world, in our total lack of wisdom, that decides to minimize or completely discard the antidote and maximize the thing that will slowly poison us - sugar.
Fiber is not an antidote, it is a plug. Fiber literally covers your intestines so that they can't absorb nutrients very well. That isn't a good thing. Yeah, it blocks some of the sugar absorption buy it also blocks everything else including vitamins and minerals. It's the most ridiculous take to say that fiber is an antidote for anything. Fiber does harm to humans by reducing their ability to absorb nutrients from the food they eat. It's like saying that sealing a plastic bag over your head is an antidote for air pollution...
@@Hertz2laugh You are correct, that fiber does act like an antinutrient. I personally don't subscribe to the notion that we need fiber. However, in a nation hellbent on maintaining a sugar addiction, if they are going to consume copious amounts of sugar, at least fiber acts as a prophylactic.
@@simongarner5340 The problem is that sugar is often hidden in many foods and most people have no idea how much sugar they consume each day. So it is difficult to be moderate, whatever moderate means.
@@simongarner5340 Bear in mind that there are only about 4 grams of glucose normally circulating in the bloodstream and compare that to how much sugar is consumed in a meal.

Hi Jessie and thank you. I love orange juice but have been cautious of the sugar pile dissolved within it for some time.

Hello, I thought that the sucrose in cola is a table sugar, this is a disaccharide made up of one molecule each of glucose and fructose bound together. In contrast, oranges contain more fructose, which is absorbed by the enterocytes and metabolised independently of insulin. It reaches the liver via the portal vein, where it is broken down via fructose-1-phosphate and glyceraldehyde to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Excesses are stored in the liver and muscles in the form of glycogen, which can be converted back into glucose when needed. Only when the glycogen stores are full is the excess glucose converted into fat and stored in the fat cells. No insulin is required to break down fructose, which means that blood sugar levels are barely affected. Fructose is metabolised independently of insulin and has a low glycemic index (GI) of just 22, and therefore barely affects blood sugar levels. (The GI of glucose, on the other hand, is 100.) Then the question arises: why is the glycemia peak so high? Do manufacturers add extra sugar to orange juice?
The funny thing about that fact is fructose is actually *more* harmful to your body than the glucose in sugar. Your liver can only metabolize so much fructose (very little, as fructose was rare for evolving humans), and any excess is deposited as fat in your liver or neighboring organs, organ fat being the most harmful, worse than visceral fat. With many modern people already having compromised liver health, fructose is an added stressor the liver cannot cope with easily. Best to only eat whole fruit, and to only eat it in moderation, particularly around exercise.
I appreciate you making this video. What I would like you to know is that fruit sugar is mainly fructose which does not need insulin to digest. It is different sugar to glucose which needs insulin to digest. I learned so much from Dr Robert Morse about fruit sugar and that it is not bad. The way your body processes it makes it the problem which you can heal. I have eaten lots of fruit and drink lots of fruit juice. I eat melon for breakfast. I have no sugar rollercoaster up and down. I have more energy and I sleep so well

I used to work outside under the hot sun. I would drink soda and sugary drinks to "stay hydrated". I would get headaches and be thirsty even though I was tired of drinking too much water. Once I removed the sugary drinks and started eating fruit, drinking real fruit juice, my headaches vanished, i felt hydrated. I hear so many experts saying this food is "good", this food is "bad". Before believing them, I test whatever they say to confirm whether or not what they say is true. I have no issue with real fruit juice, but I understand other people might. Each person has to find out what works for them.
When I was young I ate lots of fruit, trying to be healthy. My dentist told me to stop because the acid was eroding my tooth enamel!😱 Apparently you shouldn't brush within half an hour of eating/drinking fruit because it makes the damage even worse!🤷🏼♀️
Yes both the acid and the sugar in fruit damage your teeth. And the sugar also damages the cells, mitochondria and dna in your body when you have too much. "Increased consumption of dietary sugars, especially fructose, leads to impaired mitochondrial respiratory chain function, resulting in altered activity and protein levels of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation system, namely in the subunits of the electron transport chain (I-IV) in the heart"
@@tadejdanev5030 The big problem is that fruit is not as healthy as it used to be because its source has been deliberately mutated into a form that makes the fruit much higher in sugar.
@@tadejdanev5030 Fruit is healthy, but you can have too much of a good thing! Fruit acids can damage your teeth, and fruit sugars can cause a glucose spike. Like the other person commented, modern fruit has been bred to be sweeter and larger than they were naturally. So eat in moderation, along with some protein and don't brush your teeth for half an hour afterwards!😅
I remember as a child in our home and many other homes there was small glasses just slightly bigger than a shot glass , these glasses were called juice glasses often had a design trim of fruit or flowers around them ! Even then they knew we needed to drink juice sparingly !
Your studio has got a lot of geometrical shaped furniture's which brings a very cryptic yet futuristic vibe at the same time. Having said that I love the way you explain your knowledge very lucidly with a lot of practical examples...
You are depressing us all (Who are already depressed & comforting with sugar) in such a lovely youthfull & happy energy that we can but forgive you & acknowledge what we already know but denied for years. More seriously thank you goddess for your advice ! Slowly but surely you are entering people's mind & as many truths are being unveiled it's the right time to decide to stop being fooled by the food industry.
After 20+ yrs of not drinking any juices, I have reintroduced half a cup of cold press OJ or pineapple in the morn after my bkfst. I am not talking about garbage pasteurized juice or shelf stable concentrate. Its not apple to apples. It actually makes me feel a lot better than the morning coffee I was drinking which would make me feel like crap by the afternoon.
What about gazpacho? Tomato, cucumber, peppers, onion, (this makes for 96,5%) vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and salt. I drink it as a snack when I get hungry at noon, it fills me up, and I thought it was a good snack, people have it as a soup. I've always been curious about this! (I have PCOS)
it depends of the concentration. I don't usually buy orange juice from manufacturers. If you make a juice with ONE orange and dilute with water , it doesn't have a problem at all. Only don't buy concentrated orange juice with additives.
*I had very high blood sugar I only managed to improve my health when I found a WONDERFUL treatment,❤❤ if you want to know about it, I left the name in the comment reply*
Just to be clear, the American Heart Association states 25 grams of ADDED sugar for a man and 22 for a woman. I think there is a difference in sugar in your diet vs added sugar. Am I wrong?
Jessica's comments on fruit juices and fruit growing are really good. First, most of the fruit juices are real sugar bombs, and secondly, nowadays fruit (and also vegetable growing) hast nothing to do with natural conditions. They must be big, in perfect shape, seedless, as sweet as possible, long enduring, spotless and so on. That's kind of sick, particularly, when you have once been to the tropics and have seen fruits or vegetables in a natural environment. They may often appear not so perfect as you may expect, but in many cases they are much more tasty than the ones cultivated in huge farms. By the way, I like Jessica's presentations very much, also due to her fantastic appearance. Heinz, 64, MD, GER
Darn. And I've been seeing/feeling such benefits when I do the 3 or 5 day organic pressed juice cleanse. Well you just saved me a lot of money 😅 Thanks for this great info!
I love your channel. But can you briefly describe what a good "savory" breakfast would be? I couldn't find the PDF you referenced. Thanks. Keep up the good work.
Steak and eggs. Has loads of vitamins, minerals, folate, healthy cholesterol, and protein. Virtually no carbohydrates (a.k.a. sugars). If you think eating plants is good for you (for whatever reason), add avocado.
Eggs is a big one. I found the pdf she talked about and it has two recipes. One for an omelette with tomatoes and feta cheese and the other a chia bowl with unsweetened stuff in it. I can’t remember too much about the bowl. Eggs are always a good option for a savory breakfast. If you like baking I saw a gf breakfast recipe that I’m going to implement for myself. Let me know if you’re interested I’ll send you the short.
Can u tell us about the difference between sucrose fractose and glucose and the relationship between them and insulin spike. I think fruits has 95% of fructose which doesn't results in insuline spike.I like you.
Fructose does cause spike. I get spikes from the fruit same way as from any other sugar. Like she said if is not juiced, might be that spike will escalate slower.
I truly love learning this 🤯 mind blowing information. If you add vegetables to the juice, does it make it better? Is it contraindicated? If you don’t mind unsolicited advise, I suggest making your videos more upbeat, faster, more dynamic. It would help! Thank you for the info!
I think the same principle applies when juicing vegetables, it is denatured, you are taking out the fibre. The fibre helps slow down the impact of a blood sugar spike. You’re better off not juicing at all. Furthermore, adding juiced vegetables will not drop the sugar content, 22g of sugar in a glass of orange juice topped up with juiced vegetables is still 22g of sugar. In fact, it is possibly more when the sugar in the juiced vegetable is factored in.
My dentist could always tell when I drank a lot of fruit juice by the state of my teeth. It was recommended to drink less fruit juice because it was equivalent to cola in terms of sugar. I stopped fruit juice, started water and never had a cavity again.

I'm brand new to the channel and while this information makes sense, it's also a shock to my brain. I mean, on one side I see guys going on juice cleanses and daily consumption of plenty of fruit and an other side there is blood sugar control. How do I believe what's true and best anymore?
Hey great video and channel it's really helping me. I've just started a 30 day no processed sugar but after watching this I think fj is also off only allowing real fruit. My question is if you can't even have fj then what do you guys drink?? Only water tea and coffee?
raising awareness by clear articulation and facts! thank you for making your videos, sharing your videos to win food arguments with friends works so much better than sending research papers! 😝
Loved this episode. I have been following some of her instructions like starting my meal with veggies, occasionally I drink vinegar before the meal and combining sugar-dense desserts with protein source like walnuts. I lost 5kg in a month :) and I do not feel hungry at all. The only side effect I have been experiencing is lethargy. I want to sleep for 10-11h, I get tired easily and basically want to go to bed all the time except morning hours. I believe this is the adaptation of my brain to low blood sugar levels. Just curious, is this diet eventually ketogenic? and since my sugar intake is lower but still not as low as in ketogenic diets, will my body and brain finally find their way to metabolism that will boost my energy, not the other way around? Happy to receive scientific articles regarding what happens in such scenarios :)
Hi Jessie-Angel, thanks for this 12.th science show with this important information. I don't drink fruit juices but I have a lot of friends who do. I'm always screaming when they order it when we are out for brunch etc. ... absoluty weird what the industry wants to make us believe. Now my dear, I have a video from you to share it with my friends. 🙏 You look gorgeous as ever. 🥰 Sending you lots of love & hugs, 🤗❤😘 Elisabeth (still from Düsseldorf, Germany)
This is such pure GOLD. Never have I ever heard clearer nutrition explanations. I wish I had learned this decades ago. Damn it! Thanks so much for this great (free) education you're providing us 🙌
I used to buy those half-gallon cartons of orange juice and drink half of it in one sitting during dinner. After listening to you, my goddess, I stopped buying orange juice. It's for the better. Thank you.
To put it more succinctly, juice is highly processed fruit, and one of the principal features of highly processed foods is the absence of fiber. As Robert Lustig. says." feed your gut (that's the fiber) and protect the liver(avoiding fructose, which is glucose's evil twin, and which, in excess. results in fatty liver and thus insulin resistance")"
As a nutrition scientist, I can say that she is not wrong. But also not completely right. Most dietetic institutions recommend 5 portions of fruit and vegetables. However, when asked whether these portions can be balanced out with juices, most say no. Which is right, imo. Juice has the many disadvantages mentioned above: High sugar content, low fibre. However, fruit in general often offers vitamin combinations that vegetables do not. It is therefore probably most beneficial to use them together in a diet. But the idea of eating only juice or fruit would also be problematic for humans for another reason: the constant consumption of acid would attack the teeth relatively quickly. Fruit is therefore not quite as bad as the video suggests. It just has a few things to consider.
'Most dietetic institutions recommend 5 portions of fruit and vegetables' They pull this stuff out of nowhere and can widely differ. Who cares about blind recommendations based ultimately on nothing, or worse industry and ideology, over actually understanding the body and food? The whole idea of it is fallacious and does more harm than good. They are more concerned with promoting their own authority than nutrition. If Vitamins were your concern, you wouldn't bother mentioning fruit or veg in general. It's actually ad hoc justification to hold up baseless beliefs.
Dear Dr. Inchauspé❤ You've mentioned before that modern fruits are not as natural as we might think and are primarily made up of water, sugar, and fiber. I consume fruits because I believe they're a good source of natural vitamins. Is this not true? Should we be turning to supplements for our vitamins instead?
Continue your consume your fruits, especially by eating it! Table sugar and fruit sugar is metabolised differently and fruit sugar doesn’t spike your blood sugar levels up like table sugar does. I’m so confused about the CGM chart she showed unless it’s orange juice with ADDED sugar
smoothies for breakfast on a empty stomach ( apple blueberries strawberry pineapple ginger kale broccoli celery cucumber banana) what’s your take on that? Good or bad? 🙏
Okay orange juice from packed juice. Have you ever known that there is a juice that homemade that called cold pressed juice. There is a machine for making it. I guess u already know it, yes it’s separating the pulp and the juice (extraction). And we can mix it with other ingredients and combinations between fruits and vegs.. so what do you think about that? Still causing glucose spike?
Orange juice is full of fructose and hence too much sugar as most people don’t eat the whole fruit with the fibre and need many at once to make a glass of juice…
Now that I know about Advanced glycation end products, there is yet another reason to avoid glucose and saccarose. Also keep in mind that often what appears to be juice is in reality nectar, hich contains even more sugar and is basically no better than soda pop.
I'm from Eastern Europe. And during my childhood, we never drank any type of fruit juice or cereal in the morning. Our breakfast consisted of things like eggs, cheese, toast, butter. We did have jams sometimes, but mostly it was very basic simple sandwiches. Toast with cheese and kolbasa (it's similar to sandwich meat) (sugar cube in tea) Toast with butter and jam with hot tea (no sugar in tea) Tea was the only drink for us during school time too, or if it was any type of juice, it was pear or cherry juice made that same morning in the school cafeteria. Many of your habits form when you're a child. So, unless you make an effort to start early with your children, they will eat bad food all their life.
People got so scared of genetically modified vegetables and fruits so much they're now scared of the genetically "modified" fruits that we "modified" thousands of years ago 💀
Thank you for the amazing content! I’ve been wondering about green smoothies and green pressed juice. How are these in terms of sugar? (Using only vegetables, ginger, etc, no fruit) Thank you!
I gave up my orange juice and grapefruit juice easily a decade ago. I still miss them but when a doctor told me fruit juices were like mainlining sugar, I stopped.
I love the way Dr. Robert Lustig put it (paraphrase): "When nature packages sugar, it always packages it with the antidote - fiber." We are the only creatures in the world, in our total lack of wisdom, that decides to minimize or completely discard the antidote and maximize the thing that will slowly poison us - sugar.

Your studio has got a lot of geometrical shaped furniture's which brings a very cryptic yet futuristic vibe at the same time. Having said that I love the way you explain your knowledge very lucidly with a lot of practical examples...
i love this episode, can you please do an episode on green /vegetables juice.
So grateful for this knowledge ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉 Thank you!!!
Thank you for ALL your great information! Yes, I quit fruit juice years ago. Sadly most common diet mistakes eat you into disease...
Thank you very much for your help! You and research has helped me! Keep up the amazing work!
Awesome, thank you for the information GG ❤️
You are depressing us all (Who are already depressed & comforting with sugar) in such a lovely youthfull & happy energy that we can but forgive you & acknowledge what we already know but denied for years. More seriously thank you goddess for your advice ! Slowly but surely you are entering people's mind & as many truths are being unveiled it's the right time to decide to stop being fooled by the food industry.
I used to drink orange juice in the morning. Can't imagine drinking it now.
Thank you for your help and support and say no for sugar ❤❤❤...
Thank you!
Beetroot and sugar beet are different things btw.
After 20+ yrs of not drinking any juices, I have reintroduced half a cup of cold press OJ or pineapple in the morn after my bkfst. I am not talking about garbage pasteurized juice or shelf stable concentrate. Its not apple to apples. It actually makes me feel a lot better than the morning coffee I was drinking which would make me feel like crap by the afternoon.
unique format! amazing! DO NOT CHANGE IT! 👏👏👏
I stopped enjoying containers of sugar that look and taste like oranges/orange juice about 15 years ago. This woman speaks truth.
What about gazpacho? Tomato, cucumber, peppers, onion, (this makes for 96,5%) vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and salt. I drink it as a snack when I get hungry at noon, it fills me up, and I thought it was a good snack, people have it as a soup. I've always been curious about this! (I have PCOS)
it depends of the concentration. I don't usually buy orange juice from manufacturers. If you make a juice with ONE orange and dilute with water , it doesn't have a problem at all.
Only don't buy concentrated orange juice with additives.
*I had very high blood sugar I only managed to improve my health when I found a WONDERFUL treatment,❤❤ if you want to know about it, I left the name in the comment reply*

Thanks for the information. Please also throw some light on vegetable juice like carrots
Just to be clear, the American Heart Association states 25 grams of ADDED sugar for a man and 22 for a woman. I think there is a difference in sugar in your diet vs added sugar. Am I wrong?
When I was a kid it was such a thing and my mom did every morning fresh orange juice, honestly thanks god it doesn’t harm my health 🙃
Jessica's comments on fruit juices and fruit growing are really good. First, most of the fruit juices are real sugar bombs, and secondly, nowadays fruit (and also vegetable growing) hast nothing to do with natural conditions. They must be big, in perfect shape, seedless, as sweet as possible, long enduring, spotless and so on. That's kind of sick, particularly, when you have once been to the tropics and have seen fruits or vegetables in a natural environment. They may often appear not so perfect as you may expect, but in many cases they are much more tasty than the ones cultivated in huge farms. By the way, I like Jessica's presentations very much, also due to her fantastic appearance. Heinz, 64, MD, GER
Darn. And I've been seeing/feeling such benefits when I do the 3 or 5 day organic pressed juice cleanse. Well you just saved me a lot of money 😅 Thanks for this great info!
If you’ve been seeing and feeling benefits, you must be doing something right?
@@kayo5291 🤦🏻♂️ u heard about dopamine!
Always important to know who is paying a particular research.😂👍 Money rules. Love your videos.❤
I love your channel. But can you briefly describe what a good "savory" breakfast would be? I couldn't find the PDF you referenced. Thanks. Keep up the good work.
Steak and eggs.
Has loads of vitamins, minerals, folate, healthy cholesterol, and protein.
Virtually no carbohydrates (a.k.a. sugars).
If you think eating plants is good for you (for whatever reason), add avocado.
Thank you,@@Hertz2laugh
Eggs is a big one. I found the pdf she talked about and it has two recipes. One for an omelette with tomatoes and feta cheese and the other a chia bowl with unsweetened stuff in it. I can’t remember too much about the bowl.
Eggs are always a good option for a savory breakfast. If you like baking I saw a gf breakfast recipe that I’m going to implement for myself. Let me know if you’re interested I’ll send you the short.
Can u tell us about the difference between sucrose fractose and glucose and the relationship between them and insulin spike. I think fruits has 95% of fructose which doesn't results in insuline spike.I like you.
If it ends with ‘ose’ it will spike your blood sugars.
Fructose does cause spike. I get spikes from the fruit same way as from any other sugar. Like she said if is not juiced, might be that spike will escalate slower.
I truly love learning this 🤯 mind blowing information. If you add vegetables to the juice, does it make it better? Is it contraindicated? If you don’t mind unsolicited advise, I suggest making your videos more upbeat, faster, more dynamic. It would help! Thank you for the info!
I think the same principle applies when juicing vegetables, it is denatured, you are taking out the fibre.
The fibre helps slow down the impact of a blood sugar spike. You’re better off not juicing at all. Furthermore, adding juiced vegetables will not drop the sugar content, 22g of sugar in a glass of orange juice topped up with juiced vegetables is still 22g of sugar.
In fact, it is possibly more when the sugar in the juiced vegetable is factored in.
If the sugar is the same everywhere then how come we have different GI on products with the same amount of sugar?
The funders of the research.... 🤣🤣🤣🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ hilarious
Your methods and perspective are very logical. 👍
Thanks for sharing such great information. ❤
My dentist could always tell when I drank a lot of fruit juice by the state of my teeth. It was recommended to drink less fruit juice because it was equivalent to cola in terms of sugar. I stopped fruit juice, started water and never had a cavity again.

Thank you very much for everything you do!
Thank you for sharing, you're doing a great job helping people.
But I like my veggie/fruit smoothies! Does the adding of chia or ground flaxseed have a positive effect?!?! And the protein powder?
I'm brand new to the channel and while this information makes sense, it's also a shock to my brain. I mean, on one side I see guys going on juice cleanses and daily consumption of plenty of fruit and an other side there is blood sugar control.
How do I believe what's true and best anymore?
Hey great video and channel it's really helping me. I've just started a 30 day no processed sugar but after watching this I think fj is also off only allowing real fruit. My question is if you can't even have fj then what do you guys drink?? Only water tea and coffee?
raising awareness by clear articulation and facts! thank you for making your videos, sharing your videos to win food arguments with friends works so much better than sending research papers! 😝
Loved this episode.
I have been following some of her instructions like starting my meal with veggies, occasionally I drink vinegar before the meal and combining sugar-dense desserts with protein source like walnuts. I lost 5kg in a month :) and I do not feel hungry at all.
The only side effect I have been experiencing is lethargy. I want to sleep for 10-11h, I get tired easily and basically want to go to bed all the time except morning hours.
I believe this is the adaptation of my brain to low blood sugar levels. Just curious, is this diet eventually ketogenic? and since my sugar intake is lower but still not as low as in ketogenic diets, will my body and brain finally find their way to metabolism that will boost my energy, not the other way around?
Happy to receive scientific articles regarding what happens in such scenarios :)
What about smoothies from fresh fruits made at home?
Hi, I kind of wish you would put the links of the research you are getting your information from . Just so I could read it myself
Hi Jessie-Angel,
thanks for this 12.th science show with this important information. I don't drink fruit juices but I have a lot of friends who do. I'm always screaming when they order it when we are out for brunch etc. ... absoluty weird what the industry wants to make us believe. Now my dear, I have a video from you to share it with my friends. 🙏
You look gorgeous as ever. 🥰
Sending you lots of love & hugs,
🤗❤😘 Elisabeth

This is such pure GOLD. Never have I ever heard clearer nutrition explanations. I wish I had learned this decades ago. Damn it! Thanks so much for this great (free) education you're providing us 🙌
I used to buy those half-gallon cartons of orange juice and drink half of it in one sitting during dinner. After listening to you, my goddess, I stopped buying orange juice. It's for the better. Thank you.
We as people need to see things for what it is and understand what’s going on around we’re conscious
To put it more succinctly, juice is highly processed fruit, and one of the principal features of highly processed foods is the absence of fiber. As Robert Lustig. says." feed your gut (that's the fiber) and protect the liver(avoiding fructose, which is glucose's evil twin, and which, in excess. results in fatty liver and thus insulin resistance")"
As a nutrition scientist, I can say that she is not wrong. But also not completely right. Most dietetic institutions recommend 5 portions of fruit and vegetables. However, when asked whether these portions can be balanced out with juices, most say no. Which is right, imo. Juice has the many disadvantages mentioned above: High sugar content, low fibre. However, fruit in general often offers vitamin combinations that vegetables do not. It is therefore probably most beneficial to use them together in a diet. But the idea of eating only juice or fruit would also be problematic for humans for another reason: the constant consumption of acid would attack the teeth relatively quickly. Fruit is therefore not quite as bad as the video suggests. It just has a few things to consider.
'Most dietetic institutions recommend 5 portions of fruit and vegetables'
They pull this stuff out of nowhere and can widely differ. Who cares about blind recommendations based ultimately on nothing, or worse industry and ideology, over actually understanding the body and food? The whole idea of it is fallacious and does more harm than good. They are more concerned with promoting their own authority than nutrition.
If Vitamins were your concern, you wouldn't bother mentioning fruit or veg in general. It's actually ad hoc justification to hold up baseless beliefs.
Fist actually accurate comment I’ve seen lol
I liked the video before I even watched it 😊. You are saving my life thank you
Dear Dr. Inchauspé❤
You've mentioned before that modern fruits are not as natural as we might think and are primarily made up of water, sugar, and fiber. I consume fruits because I believe they're a good source of natural vitamins. Is this not true? Should we be turning to supplements for our vitamins instead?
Continue your consume your fruits, especially by eating it! Table sugar and fruit sugar is metabolised differently and fruit sugar doesn’t spike your blood sugar levels up like table sugar does. I’m so confused about the CGM chart she showed unless it’s orange juice with ADDED sugar
OMG! I love how you explain things. Thanks for telling me the truth.
How long after having apple cider vinegar will it Give the protective benefits? How long after taking the ACV can you eat and it still work?
It WILL protect you, to a point.
smoothies for breakfast on a empty stomach ( apple blueberries strawberry pineapple ginger kale broccoli celery cucumber banana) what’s your take on that?
Good or bad? 🙏
There are also so many sugary drinks on the market that add vitamins and caffeine and push it as a healthy drink.
I really love the way you explain and Omg my entire life was a SCAM! in the name of fruit juice, thanks for explaining it please bring some more
Excelent! And remember, guys: always follow the money!
Okay orange juice from packed juice. Have you ever known that there is a juice that homemade that called cold pressed juice. There is a machine for making it. I guess u already know it, yes it’s separating the pulp and the juice (extraction). And we can mix it with other ingredients and combinations between fruits and vegs.. so what do you think about that? Still causing glucose spike?
Orange juice is full of fructose and hence too much sugar as most people don’t eat the whole fruit with the fibre and need many at once to make a glass of juice…
Now that I know about Advanced glycation end products, there is yet another reason to avoid glucose and saccarose. Also keep in mind that often what appears to be juice is in reality nectar, hich contains even more sugar and is basically no better than soda pop.
The vVitamin c in fruit reduces glycation by 75%
I Really enjoyed and learned with this information! Thanks a lot. Blessings from Juárez Chihuahua México beautiful señorita...❤
Who is your stylist? You dress amazing in your vids!
I'm from Eastern Europe. And during my childhood, we never drank any type of fruit juice or cereal in the morning. Our breakfast consisted of things like eggs, cheese, toast, butter. We did have jams sometimes, but mostly it was very basic simple sandwiches.
Toast with cheese and kolbasa (it's similar to sandwich meat) (sugar cube in tea)
Toast with butter and jam with hot tea (no sugar in tea)
Tea was the only drink for us during school time too, or if it was any type of juice, it was pear or cherry juice made that same morning in the school cafeteria. Many of your habits form when you're a child. So, unless you make an effort to start early with your children, they will eat bad food all their life.
I love all your content and your style!! Thank you GG, I have changed my diet with your hacks and feel great 😊❤
People got so scared of genetically modified vegetables and fruits so much they're now scared of the genetically "modified" fruits that we "modified" thousands of years ago 💀
No it’s the over eating of fruits and juice with high sugar ( Fructose) that is scary!
Just a question. Do you consider tomatoes or avocado as fruit or vegetables? Healthy starters?
She said in another video, that you can eat them as veg. She eats tomatoes in the mornings too. With other stuff.
Have a lovely day 🙌💗
Thank you for the amazing content! I’ve been wondering about green smoothies and green pressed juice. How are these in terms of sugar?
(Using only vegetables, ginger, etc, no fruit) Thank you!
Carrot, also. It is much sweetener though, I know that.
We don’t know what we eat whatsoever now😭😭
I gave up my orange juice and grapefruit juice easily a decade ago. I still miss them but when a doctor told me fruit juices were like mainlining sugar, I stopped.
That was a wonderful video jessie
Great video! Have you made one on smoothies? What are your thoughts? I’d love to know thanks xx
