@@ianosgnatiuc Correct ; ‘ the diabetes is not cancer ‘ . It is the presenting sign that there is a cancerous process already present in the person’s body .
I’m 58 years old and almost two years ago I was 242 pounds. I had a high sugar and ultra processed diet. I ate all the wrong things all day, every day and late into the night. I was getting sugar spikes, constant heartburn/acid reflux and my digestive system was going absolutely crazy. I stopped the sugar and ultra processed foods. I drink plenty of water have bananas and peaches for snacks instead of donuts and walk my dogs at a brisk pace between 2-4 miles everyday. My weight dropped to 196 pounds (I’m 6’1”) and all my digestive issues have resolved. My waist size dropped from a 38” to a 34”. It wasn’t easy sometimes but it was well worth it. Thanks be to Dr. Dhand. It was your videos that made me want to do it. Thanks again!!!!
It's what they always used to say it was -- diet and exercise. That's the whole thing. That's 90% of healthcare. Diet and exercise. Diet in the sense of NUTRITION, not "dieting". They stopped giving that advice. Now it's pills and more pills. And the population has become fat and sick and I think that's the way they like it.
@@jenniferclarke3622 Glucose feeds cancer and a whole host of metabolic diseases. Fructose is converted into glucose in the body. Fruit is not healthy. Fruit is a treat.
I have osteoporosis, like brutally bad. I have done "intermittent fasting" since high school...almost 50 years ago. My early efforts to be thin very likely caused me to never develop max bone density, so now, at 63, I have the bones of a 90 year old. When I was diagnosed, I did change my diet, increased my activity (I had been a runner and weight lifter, but had stopped both because I kept injuring myself--before I knew I had osteoporosis,) despite pain...and sadly, all signs point to diabetes anyway, and ckd, and I'm still in pain/struggle to increase strength without making my life miserable. It can be a damned if you do, damned if you don't proposition, and I understand why some people don't try.
@@cindylutz7442 yes and hiking up mountains and wild places comes with the risk of wild animal encounters but its so rewarding physically as forested trails mostly are softer /less impacting on your joints/bones compared to pounding pavement if running. a mountain bike with only a front shock is a great low impact way to keep fit and stay lean /healthy esspecially when learning to climb hills while standing on your pedals and off the seat even on paved roads it gives you a total body workout. the mountain bike allows you to keep your back straight compared to road racing bikes and just learn to keep your tires inflated for your body weight as too much air makes steering control tricky and you can lose control/fall and too little air can make pedalling too much of a chore and taking the fun out of it. avoid rear shock bikes as even when locked out they make riding a chore unless you like racing really fast down a mountain trail/road.👍
There are so many approved cRap in the U.S. that are banned in other countries. Sea Turtles banned here but crickes are approved here and get a pass in the ingredients list. Not listed on labels.
Americans are so inclined to blame someone else for everything wrong. Smoking, drinking, junk food. We have become a nation of blamers. And not even educated blamers. Rather hysterical, finger pointing, spineless blamers. I can say this because after decades of nutrition and health studies, the indifference to knowledge is pathetic. Here, have a candy bar, bag of chips, soda. Have all you want. It's your life. Choose friends who have a healthy lifestyle. They are more fun. 🌱
A lot of products sold in grocery stores I would not consider to be called food. These so called foods that contain sugars(artificial)are laboratory concoctions
A couple of years ago I read a great little book on natural healing called ‘My Physician, Myself’, written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention. It’s available on Amazon and well worth the read. You might also look into the work of Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman who lived to 102.
Yep....even moderate daily exercise....keeping a reasonable (not ripped) body weight....and at.least making 80% of your food unprocessed.....that would solve this issue.
True. Just look at the contents in most people’s grocery carts. And look at the people pushing them. (Or riding on the scooters because they can’t walk.)
@@richardwood6017 yep....there's a bunch of other influences, but being way more sedentary and just eating processed unnatural foods are the two biggest.
@@richardwood6017 nothing like now!! People didn’t snack 24/7 back then. Most ate three meals a day and more people cooked. I didn’t know what fast food was as a kid in the 60s.
@@catlolisIt's the crοοked majority of that trade that made the title a curse. It's not the trade itself. I believe this can be reversed. It was not their free choice to becοme crοοks, most of them at least...
He’s not that wonderful and caring . We posted some important information and it was just deleted . ( Information regarding proton pump inhibitor’s and magnesium deficiency . )
You mentioned people trying to get the closest parking space possible. I get a kick watching people going to the gym to exercise will drive around the parking lot for 10 or more minutes to get a close parking spot. When my wife and I go to the grocery she gets annoyed at me for parking near the end of the parking lot. I tell her that I'd rather walk a bit further than to have to deal with the car and foot traffic close to entrance. Unfortunately she just doesn't get it.
@@TudorCityGrrrl Yes, walking in a parking lot can be dangerous. You have to pay as much attention when walking as driving. I figure that while walking I'm a smaller target and can change direction a lot quicker.
I'm fat (changing that thru carnivore) but have parked way out for years. I HATE driving around to find a spot. I get in and out quicker by parking farther out. And fat or thin, the walk is better for me.
My dad got type 2, that has set me up for life to avoid getting it. Going fine so far, turning 78 next week 😅. So appreciate you Dr Dhand, keep at it, you are not whistling in the wind 😊
You are a godsend Dr. for all people who have medical knowledge and for those people who don't. You are so revered for your knowledge and definitely for your HONESTY. MAY YOU LIVE A LONG & HEALTHY ❤LIFE. BLESS YOU🙏🙏🙏🙏
The best part about quitting sugar is that after a while, you don’t even crave it anymore. I used to be THE BIGGEST sugar addict. Now I’ve been carnivore for 2 years.
I think there is something they do to white sugar that makes it more addictive. I switched to organic sugar years ago, which I use pretty much only for my coffee, and I really don't care for sweet foods anymore as I used to.
@@ianosgnatiuc There you go again. White sugar is bleached. Organic sugar is not. Organic in the phrasing is about how it is sourced, and the use of no pesticides or other man made chemicals on the sugar cane in the growing or harvesting process. A cancer sufferer who consumes white sugar will have a tougher time achieving full remission compared to a cancer sufferer who consumes organic sugar. Why? Because organic sugar contains nothing carcinogenic. If you're gonna speak on a subject like this as if you know what you are talking about, you should do enough research so you do know what you are talking about.
Thankyou for the great informastion. I have a "Masters degree" in nutrition and totally agree with you. I am also 81 years old and do not have diabetes nor take any prescription meds.
I take thyroxine every day for under active thyroid..In your opinion,what should I eat to get off this medication. It’s the only prescription drug I take. I’m female 65 years old.
@@annecoyle5811I took synthroid for years bc a doc said I needed it. I simply quit taking it, survived just fine. 68, no pHARMaceuticals. Been returning the cart from a distance at all retail stores for 30 years, TV free for 10 years, as well, and 60 pushups daily.
If you’re reading this start living before it’s too late. I recommend reading “Health and Beauty Mastery” that book is a real eye opener about shocking stuff health industry is doing!
65 years old and sarcopenic so I joined gymnastics. Best thing I could have done to improve my health. Young people do not care that you are old and fat. The people at my gymnastics class don't want to hear excuses and are very supportive. I really enjoy being around young people. It is a life saver for me.
I am 61 and very deconditioned . I have never been able to do gymnastics and never been a real athlete. I am worried about ripping or pulling tendons muscles. Did you use to be a gymnast ? I’m just wondering what your baseline is ? I am pretty desperate because I am scared . It’s just me and I do not know what to do to start to become physically strong . M so many things I can not do because I can’t lift more than 10 lbs and there is no one to help. There is a lot of depression but that’s another story . Anyway thank you for any info you can send my way. Thank you again
@@Grungefan2018 You sound like me. But I am 5 years older than you! My baseline is 0. I'm going to guess you already know what Dr D has said? As I do. But can't seem to start. Might I suggest that you don't need to do gymnastics because you just read about it - only if you really want to. Make sure you are not grabbing at solutions just because you have read about it (as I do everyday). Two things. Start with walking outside every day. Even just to the nearest lamppost and go to the next one every few days. Do strength exercises easy to find on YT physiotherapy sites. Set yourself a goal of just doing these for 2 weeks or a month. Setting an easy goal is important, esp with depression around. You sound to me as if, like me, you, from fear, plan to transform your world 100% every day; but it never happens? Just do this initially, to get started, then, in a few weeks, it may come to you what, more group, exercise you would enjoy doing. Maybe Tai Chi or Xi Gung? Seniors kick boxing even. 😀 Both increase strength. Do it because you enjoy it. That's important. Find your own path. Second thing, write down, in a notebook, what you plan, your thoughts, why you are doing it. That is your friend. Writing things down make things more real in our minds. Use a PEN and PAPER! Typing does not have the same connection to your brain as hand writing does. I hope, for both of us, we can follow this and start to make changes. Another tip is to list to Dr Michael Mosley's series 'Just One Thing', for many small, positive changes we can all make. I wish us both the best of luck. xx

A beef steak is the highest most bioavailable source of total human nutrition on the planet.... Every plant based person I know after a year or two of not eating meat looks 20 years older than their calendar age...
@@derkong7114weird, as all the plant based ppl i know look younger, and have more energy than the carnists i know. ure pants on fire? im guessing they are.
I like the way you put it:”It’s your temple, why would you put any toxic into it?!” But actually it’s God’s Temple why would you put any toxic chemicals into it?! ❤
I would suggest not relying on willpower and setting up your home food environment such that the healthy choices the default choice. Higher risk, tempting foods are best left outside of the house to be enjoyed on occasion
I stopped baking a long time ago. I live alone. I would make brownies with the idea I'd eat them slowly over time. In fact, I'd have a day where my emotions went haywire and those brownies could disappear kwik
'Nothing tastes so good as being healthy feels.' Quit the carbs. Quit everything in the middle aisles of the suoermarket as well as the packaged foods in the fridges. Treat vegetables with care. They have anti-nutrients. And you can't be sure of which fertilisers, pesticides and fungicides were used to grow them. Eat beef(and fish, pork, chicken if you wish) butter (or lard , tallow, ghee, duck fat to cook with), bacon and eggs with salt and water. Do it for a month and you won't look back.
Dr Suneel Dhand. I hope you don't mind , but i have adopted you as my Doctor / Mentor. Have been having major problems with getting to see a doctor and anything with the NHS. Have been keeping up with viewing your uploads and has opened my eyes to so much. Being in my early 50's , change has to happen for me to begin recovery. I just wanted to thank you 🙏 for everything you do to help people. Blessings 🙏 to you and your family ⭐
@@drsuneeldhand I am 66 and have been sedentary since I retired aged 50. I have zero activity and sit all day watching TH-cam and or flying MSFS 2020 on my Xbox Series X gaming console and I am 5' 10" and weigh 110kg's however I do NOT eat Supermarket foods or fast foods. I like to cook and I eat very very little carbs for 20 years and eat a lot of meats, eggs etc. My yearly bloods come back fine and my A1C is always < 5.7% and my average blood glucose level is always below 6 mmol/L. Am I a freak as well????
My mum has Diabetes, but shelistened to my advice and changed her diet and got mostly off carbs. After her last blood test, the Dr was stunned as she had the best levels and asked her "What are you doing?" - smirk ✨️✨️✨️
My doctor warned me that my diet was "really dangerous" but after ten years she admitted "By now I would have expected you to be on two or three diabetes medications". Another nine years and I'm still on none plus I came off all my other meds. The only downside is that now I am nineteen years older. That wouldn't have happened if I continued to eat the dietician's diet, I would be much fatter, on lots of drugs and almost certainly already dead. Congratulations to you and your mum.
@@Joegengstah Yes, I used my glucometer to tell me how many carbs I could eat when. Initially I was limited to 15g at breakfast and 30g by evening. After I had been doing it for a while my morning tolerance strangely reduced to 10g but by evening I could eat 80 or even 100g, a useful party trick but I mostly stick below 50g/day. I eat more protein and especially fat until I could smell the ketones in my pee. Today I had a thickly buttered oatcake with smoked salmon for breakfast, and I just had an evening meal of bacon, lamb's liver and a giant mushroom lightly fried in EVOO with some broccoli boiled briefly a couple more thickly buttered oatcakes and a glass of malbec. Other days I eat rump steak and buttered asparagus or ham and buttered peas and similar stuff. I used to eat breakfast then not eat again until I became hungry, which might be any time between late afternoon and late evening, irrespective of whether I was sat at my computer or walking round the bird reserve, up and down the coast or over the heaths and farmland. Now I can't walk so much. Obviously people especially doctors will blame eating too much fat or meat and completely ignore over fifty years of diabetic damage.

Dr. Dhand... Your last video... I'm starting to worry about your safety??? I have heard of others who have been outspoken of the Truth... who are No Longer with us. Please be aware of this. Thank you for all your Fantastic Videos! Be Safe.
I appreciate this video. It gives me a lot to thing about. I do read labels and I do try to make good food purchases and cook a lot of what I eat at home. I have fallen prey to the sugar/carb addiction and the sedentary lifestyle. I already knew that but it it something I needed to hear someone say to me. I am 78 years old and until recently, since covid, have gained about 35 pounds and have had osteoarthritis that has given me a lot of hip pain that I have given in to. Most of the weight gain is around my middle and it makes me miserable. In the last month I have started checking my BP regularly and it is high most of the time. I have noticed some physical symptoms like headaches and jitteriness. I do believe I can get this under control. I need to save this video and listen to it everyday until i know I am doing all the things I should be doing. Thanks for listening and keep this excellent information coming.
They can be misleading; however, once one knows how to read them, they still help identify bad food. My rule is to avoid food with labels that mention any ingredient unavailable before the Industrial Revolution. Combining that with minimizing even real single-ingredient foods that are high carb, life is much better.
The only way to know for sure what is in our food is to prepare it from raw ingredients. Either that or get a chemistry degree in order to understand the labels.
@@coweatsman If a child cannot easily read a food label, then no one should eat that product. A rare exception is fermented foods with labels that list strains of bacteria.
Go carnivore, start eating healthy fat, and toss out all recommendations from the medical community. The fat will help you be satisfied while you are eliminating carb cravings.
I was doing high protein/ low carb, animal fats included. Certain vegetables, legumes and grains tend to be my main IBS triggers. I eat the veggies that don’t trigger it. I can’t afford to do it consistently anymore. I do what I can but it is having an impact on me. My IBS has returned and my joints are back to aching. Canada’s food prices are wild. The healthy foods are the ones that have skyrocketed the most in cost. The other issue is grocery stores selling expired food and spoiled produce. This is becoming too common of an occurrence where I live. Who wants to buy grey hamburger and moldy tomatoes and peppers? Rotting grapes, anyone? I have food allergies and IBS so I read food labels and have for many years. I buy products that have the least amount of ingredients with ingredients that you can actually pronounce.
@@elenarogers5311You straight up sound like a cheesy informercial. I’m surprised that you didn’t add in a half dozen exclamation points at the end of your sentence…only one?
Bless you, Doc. I'm sure your mission to help people get healthy is paying off. I help people, too, but maybe not with physical health. My philosophy is that if you can help one person to a better life, it's worth the effort. In your case, it's much more than that, of course, and I appreciate your channel. You make me "shape up!" I'm one of these "lazy ones," but that's going to change.
You know what is very interesting? There are 8 million people in the UK waiting for surgery and they say it will take a year to start the process. I guess a medical system is completely destroyed in the UK. The United States is next. Great video. Spot on. Thank you very much doc.
Again so TRUE;this bigger picture you so eloquently give is just so true. Thank you (and the Stoïcs you obviously have read) You are a medical frontline fighter for sure! Thanks again!
Well stated!!! I spend time now reading labels like never before. self-preservation is the key! If you don't move sh--t happens! Keep up the good fight!
This is.a great message and also it is helpful for those who are 50 and above, especially women going through massive hormonal changes, to know that the transformation may be slower and you can get to great change even if it is slow going to get there. I've been working at it for 2 years very consistently and with the support of a great low carb doctor and community. It can be discouraging because the natural body changes are counteracting the work I'm doing, so I am not seeing a miraculous turn around despite the hard work. But I would be much worse off if I wasn't doing these positive changes while going through perimenopause/menopause. So if you are feeling discouraged, keep on going. It may not be "weeks", it may be years, but it is worth it!
'Do not put in your shopping cart' ... I went a step further, Do not enter a grocery store I order online from specialist suppliers, usually basic foodstuffs l prepaid myself
Sorry but that takes forever because they don’t always have that item in stock and shipping takes a couple of days. Ive had pet orders be delivered to the wrong house
Thanks Dr Dhand. Your advice focusses on what you should eat. That is absolutely correct. I would add point 4 though as follows. How much you eat is also very important because what you body cannot use it is programmed to store the balance as fat.
Oh how true your comments are. I have a dear friend who has diabetes and it’s getting worse. She was just in hospital after having a hyper episode and is now on insulin injections, she has cataracts in both eyes is vastly overweight too. She keeps saying the doctors have told her this is not her fault. I’m gobsmacked they told her that. I tried to help her when she was pre diabetic but in only 6 months she is on the insulin . I’m having to make a step back as she continues on this path as I just can’t make her see. All the info and videos I have sent her from TH-cam she will not watch or listen. Is so sad to see this happening to her but I’m angry at the same time!
In many jurisdictions fioe gras (AKA non alcoholic liver disease in geese) is illegal. It is considered unethical and inhumane. The geese are fattened with high carbohydrate food for corporate profit. But this is exactly how food corporations are treating consumers. Consumers are treated like feedlot animals, fattened up for corporate profit. We sometimes treat animals better than people. We need an RSPCA for humans as well as animals and one which is not corrupted for corporate funding.
I don’t think foie gras is a big corporate item, it’s mostly from private farms. And yes, the farmer wants to make a profit, that’s how he survives. But I get your point.

I decided to go keto. I do not eat meat either. I was eating too much processed,so three years ago I decided to pull my big girl pants up and take care of myself. Carbs are the killer , processed food is dangerous! I also fast . My blood sugars have plummeted. I was 11 @ my highest. Shocked to be told by my diabetic nurse that she nursed folk whose blood sugars were in the 30s..WOW.. I am 58 and strength train, athlete in my youth,but had my kids,work and just did not think about my diet.,This Doc is 100 per cent correct
I've been a carnivore for a little over a year and was strict keto for over 2 decades before that. I can lift more than men 1/3 my age. I can't drink alcohol because my body doesn't have alcohol dehydrogenase in sufficient amounts. That makes me 6 to 10 times more likely to develop esophageal cancer if I drink, like the grandpa I never met who died at age 58 from that disease. I have no idea what a cigarette tastes like. I train 3 of my friends 3 times per week in my house, but I can't convince them to stop eating carbs, sugar, and processed foods. You would think that since I'm the same age and am the only one who doesn't have diabetes, obesity, HBP, and am not on a statin, they'd give up eating human kibble, but the addiction is so powerful. If I'm not working out, I'm working someone else out. I even walk my cat, and he gets at least 20 minutes of quality play every day in addition to that. My dad had his first heart attack before he was even 40. That was in the early 70s when everyone was skinny, too. Luckily, I was a hyper child who had to be put in gymnastics. I broke a neighbor's basement couch by jumping on it repeatedly. I got long Covid in 2020, so severe, the doctor thought I had a major stroke. Weeks earlier, I set a personal best of 142 consecutive pushups, so it was devastating. I gained 20 lbs over half a year as I battled the severe fatigue that came with it. If I overdid it, I'd pay for days after. I'm not 100% yet with my endurance, but my strength is greater than before, which is great since I'm turning 60 this winter. Eating meat is like a fountain of youth. I can't explain it, but it seems very obvious that it's nutrient dense and all of those nutrients are bioavailable. I got IBS from the Covid booster shot. It went into remission when I eliminated plants. I am the only person in my family with no fillings. I can do more pushups than Joe Rogan, but my 2 sisters can't do 1 pushup between the two of them, and one is thin. My brother and I are more dedicated to maintaining a good quality of life as we age through exercise. He is really into intense bike riding. I outlift him, but he kicks my cardio butt. He also eats better. He has the self-control to eat 1/2 of a homemade sandwich and a vegetable or a piece of fruit. He's 65 and seems immune from food addiction. He has never gained weight in his life. I joke that when it comes to math and weight, he got the Japanese genes.🤣 Although I was a wirey athletic kid, weighing 110 lbs. all through my 20s and riding my bike to work, after menopause, I seem to have a choice of being chubby or muscular. Keeping my furnace as big as possible has kept my dad's and grandpa's diabetic tendencies in check. I can't even look at a bagel, or I'm doomed. If you want to really piss off Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and Big Food, eat only REAL food in its natural form. There's nothing more annoying to your typical doctor than when you are in better shape than they are, and they could be your kid.🤣🤣
Sorry, but you aren't and never will be a carnivore. You are an omnivore. There is also no support for that fad diet, and a lot of issues. So do you follow the Beef and Milk only version from the 1850's, , or the version that allows only meat and hot water? Good luck with lowering your risk for diabetes the same amount you increase your risk for cancer, Gout, and Kidney disease, and destroy the environment while you are at it. Smart move.
As a person with a recently diagnosed thyroid issue, I am keenly aware on what is in our food thus avoid them. I do read labels. The issue is the price of food in general, they make it cheaper for a reason, the addiction factor from what is these foods unless you grow it yourself. I avoid soda, fast food and work on a horse farm before I see patients at my job. Today after I fasted my glucose was 91. Intermittent fasting is ok, but I don’t make a habit of it. I make most of what I eat. Growing vegetables is what I do. Currently have squash growing in the back yard that I will be canning for soup in the winter time. I don’t trust the FDA they are corrupted.
I am on a low dose of synthroid. I’d like to get off it. Do you have any idea how to do that? I think most peolle are deficien5 in iodine. And that is what makes your thyroid work. I’ve been eating sardines for lunch several times a week and I have some iodine drops I use in water. One drop a day.
@@lizwilliams14 Dr. Westin Childs video on the subject. I suggest seeing an endocrinologist in your area. They will do blood work to see where you’re at. Be upfront with what you consume, even supplements. I hope this helps.
@@lizwilliams14 The thyroid is sensitive to toxins, especially heavy metals. Try Dr Pompa's three stage detox program. The third stage cured my 17 years of hypothyroidism. No more meds.
Thank you! Agree with you 100%. Up until a few years ago I had good eyesight, but now have to wear low-power glasses for reading. I do shop & eat healthily, but checking food labels is a challenge. I don't like wearing these optical appendages, so rarely do so when shopping. But even if I do, the 'small print' is so small that ingredients lists are difficult to read. The print size should be such that, even without glasses, it is readable. Additionally, I mistakenly bought some pork pies with some fancy name ('hog-roast' I believe). Upon eating them I discovered they had been sweetened: however, there was nothing on the packaging to indicate that that they contained sugar! Buyer Beware!
After watching this video I decided to park in the lower parking lot every day. This forces me to take what we call on campus "The Stairway to Heaven". And I take the stairs up to my office on the second floor (alway done that). That's a total of 100 (stair) steps. By the time I get to the top, I am a little out of breath and my legs hurt. But it will get better.
You are a good man for being straight forward and threatening but giving hope to all who are willing to change. It works if I work it, I am with it so I will work it.
I do believe a lot of what you say and I will admit I don't have a ton of time to make my own food. I do run 4 miles/day though, so that's a plus. I did keto and lost a lot of weight, but my cholesterol numbers got quite high (albeit the test uses a formula I believe and it overestimates when you have low triglycerides). Eating in some ways becomes a bit of a chore and so I can often reach to those quick snacks which likely does stall losing my last 50 lbs or so. But indeed I need to plan easy and quick meals to keep on top of things. Carbs can be an ugly cycle, although it is nice to indulge to some degree. The issue though is that it makes you want to eat more carbs. I suppose I ought to be a bit more of a stoic 😂
You don't have to read ingredient labels if you don't eat foods with ingredient labels. Dr. Pradip Jamnadas has a saying: "If food has a bar code on it, don't eat it."
Ultimately, we are all responsible for our own health. There is so much information available to live a clean and healthy life...if you choose to ignore the advice you should expect to get sick. Period.
Happened to me. At 56 yrs old. An avid cyclist, clocking 200 km a week. I couldn’t drop a pound, and eventually became diabetic. Not an overeater, but ate primarily carbohydrates and had a sweet tooth. After cutting almost all processed carbs and cut almost all processed refined sugar, I am almost below prediabetic blood sugar level and dropped 20 pounds. In 3 months! I’m never going back, and anyone who asks how I lost so much weight I tell them it’s sugar and processed carbs. I’m not keto. I’m not no carb, I am no processed carbs and no sugar! Yes it’s hard to make the shift, but so satisfying when you succeed! If I can do it at my age. Anyone can!
I always check ingredients for Polysorbate 80. It is one of those chemicals found in both edibles and cosmetics to improve texture. I can actually taste it and it's nasty.
I read the ingredients on everything I buy. One single ingredient I don't want in my body and I don't buy it. I cook myself and rarely eat out. I use my home gym (most people can get at least some dumbbells, a bench and a mat) 3-4 times per week. Taking walks almost every day. A run or two per week on top of that. I'm not training HARD but I don't just go through the emotions. I don't think doing what I've just written is hard at all and at 45y it keeps me in great shape. Very easy to do for most of us, buying clean food and moving the body.
I agree 👍 I rarely have ice cream, but when I do I get the real stuff. Usually 3 ingredients. Cream, sugar, cocoa. Other crappy ice creams have a long long list of Ingredients I don't even recognize. 😮 just eat real food. ❤
I'm in Germany. Our catsitter's diabetic father just came home from the hospital after doctors removed most of his leg! I don't know what our lovely catsitter eats but she's very fat and believes that diabetes is genetic. Thank you, Dr. Dhand. We must make careful choices every day, in many ways. Stay well, everyone. 🍁
There is a genetic version. I used to work in a dance shop and my boss’s grandsons both have it. She was paediatric nurse who worked in the neonatal unit so she assisted in their care. It came from their father who is a carrier. Both of her grandsons were born with it. Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus. It’s a form of monogenic diabetes.
@@tammylaronde8593The rate of occurrence is apparently 1 in 90,000 births, so most people who think it's genetic aren't referring to that type, and don't associate their own dietary choices with poor health outcomes.
For around 24 years I've been overweight, exhausted and now am increasingly struggling cognitively. I also had a small stroke. 4 years ago my digestion became a big issue with a sensation of fullness and severe indigestion. I developed pain under my rib and very recently my GP has informed me that I probably need my gallbladder removing and that it could become a medical emergency. She also has sent me for tests to ascertain whether my liver is salvageable. I admit I am reeling but I'm overweight and addicted to carbs. Please don't assume that everything is OK just because you don't have symptoms yet.
Remove bad foods from your house entirely then. Develop good habits and keep pushing. Feeling bad is a anowball effect, but so is feeling good. Keep going and it will get better and better. YOU CAN DO IT!!! GOD BLESS!
Food corporations in general take a lackadaisical approach toward creating a product with safety and nutrition at the forefront. Marketing and profit squeeze it out unless the target market is aware and looking for specifics in that area. Dr. Dhand you are right on subject with your outlook and recommendations to the public at large. Many people think that if the product is in the marketplace it has been properly vetted, who would sell poison food to someone it is believed. I have maintained the understanding that we live in a world where a company will sell you cigarettes, hardly a healthful product.
I started reading food labels in 1970 after reading Adele Davis. And in the 70’s there was a lot less poison in our diet. Good rule is don’t eat anything your grandma wouldn’t recognize as food
Not always! It was my gran who turned my mother on to Trex the UK equivalent of Crisco. Prior to that she used lard. She went back to it later fortunately. Oh I just flashed back to her suet pudding.
Good video and very comprehensive. I don't know about others but my body tells me to exercise. I go on regular spirited walks and look for jobs which are strenuous like gardening and jobs requiring tools. If I were to sit around my body would say 'get out and move'. I always park well away from shops (easy to find a space) and walk - often not directly- there. I also go for country walks and am amazed how FEW PEOPLE I meet. Despite this I am pre diabetic so very aware of what I eat now.
I'm from the UK was diagnosed with type 2 ,7 years ago about 8 months after my mum passed away after a year battle with Vascular Dementia, I ended up comfort eating after she died to a ridiculous level, my Hba1c was 52 I managed to reverse it a few months after diagnoses and managed to stay with in the range for about 5 years, unfortunately couple years ago i had some other trauma happen and started the comfort eating again as was severely depressed, my Hba1c is now 110 and I'm on metformin which effects my stomach, I'm trying to stop the bad eating habit's again as want to reverse it again. Blood test again in Jan next year to see if improved. Also not long after I was diagnosed I had an appointment with the diabetic nurse at the surgery and she said whilst looking at my notes and said oh yeah, a year ago when you had a blood test we knew you were pre diabetic and was like all happy with herself didn't think much of it till went home and thought why the bloody hell didn't anyone phone me and let me know, could have prevented the condition altogether, pretty sure that's medical negligence. I haven't done anything about it as too much time has passed now, but did pi** me right off.

I’m 58 years old and almost two years ago I was 242 pounds. I had a high sugar and ultra processed diet. I ate all the wrong things all day, every day and late into the night. I was getting sugar spikes, constant heartburn/acid reflux and my digestive system was going absolutely crazy. I stopped the sugar and ultra processed foods. I drink plenty of water have bananas and peaches for snacks instead of donuts and walk my dogs at a brisk pace between 2-4 miles everyday. My weight dropped to 196 pounds (I’m 6’1”) and all my digestive issues have resolved. My waist size dropped from a 38” to a 34”. It wasn’t easy sometimes but it was well worth it. Thanks be to Dr. Dhand. It was your videos that made me want to do it. Thanks again!!!!
It's what they always used to say it was -- diet and exercise. That's the whole thing. That's 90% of healthcare. Diet and exercise. Diet in the sense of NUTRITION, not "dieting". They stopped giving that advice. Now it's pills and more pills. And the population has become fat and sick and I think that's the way they like it.

I was pre diabetic and did intermittent fasting and reversed it 👏🏾👏🏾
I have osteoporosis, like brutally bad. I have done "intermittent fasting" since high school...almost 50 years ago. My early efforts to be thin very likely caused me to never develop max bone density, so now, at 63, I have the bones of a 90 year old. When I was diagnosed, I did change my diet, increased my activity (I had been a runner and weight lifter, but had stopped both because I kept injuring myself--before I knew I had osteoporosis,) despite pain...and sadly, all signs point to diabetes anyway, and ckd, and I'm still in pain/struggle to increase strength without making my life miserable.
It can be a damned if you do, damned if you don't proposition, and I understand why some people don't try.
Yes!! Intermittent fasting is great 👍 my husband and I in our 60s do that
@@cindylutz7442
That's not intermittent fasting, what you've done, that's malnourishment.
Same. On pre-diabetes stage and I’m trying my best to reverse it by eating clean!
@@cindylutz7442 yes and hiking up mountains and wild places comes with the risk of wild animal encounters but its so rewarding physically as forested trails mostly are softer /less impacting on your joints/bones compared to pounding pavement if running. a mountain bike with only a front shock is a great low impact way to keep fit and stay lean /healthy esspecially when learning to climb hills while standing on your pedals and off the seat even on paved roads it gives you a total body workout. the mountain bike allows you to keep your back straight compared to road racing bikes and just learn to keep your tires inflated for your body weight as too much air makes steering control tricky and you can lose control/fall and too little air can make pedalling too much of a chore and taking the fun out of it. avoid rear shock bikes as even when locked out they make riding a chore unless you like racing really fast down a mountain trail/road.👍
When food became a corporate global commodity, instead of locally produced and owned, that was the beginning of the end.
There are so many approved cRap in the U.S. that are banned in other countries. Sea Turtles banned here but crickes are approved here and get a pass in the ingredients list. Not listed on labels.

Americans are so inclined to blame someone else for everything wrong. Smoking, drinking, junk food. We have become a nation of blamers. And not even educated blamers. Rather hysterical, finger pointing, spineless blamers. I can say this because after decades of nutrition and health studies, the indifference to knowledge is pathetic. Here, have a candy bar, bag of chips, soda. Have all you want. It's your life. Choose friends who have a healthy lifestyle. They are more fun. 🌱
For animal welfare, too.
A lot of products sold in grocery stores I would not consider to be called food. These so called foods that contain sugars(artificial)are laboratory concoctions
Simplest, most honest advice possible.
It’s basic and sound common sense this doctor speaks!
Unfortunately, there are many people that lack common sense.

A couple of years ago I read a great little book on natural healing called ‘My Physician, Myself’, written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention. It’s available on Amazon and well worth the read. You might also look into the work of Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman who lived to 102.
Agreed. And his videos are clear and succinct.
Definitely.
People have been conditioned to TV, mobile phones and crap food. They're basically addicted to a crap life.
Yep....even moderate daily exercise....keeping a reasonable (not ripped) body weight....and at.least making 80% of your food unprocessed.....that would solve this issue.
True. Just look at the contents in most people’s grocery carts. And look at the people pushing them. (Or riding on the scooters because they can’t walk.)
You are right, let's go back at least to the 60's. Don't remember many fat people then.
@@richardwood6017 yep....there's a bunch of other influences, but being way more sedentary and just eating processed unnatural foods are the two biggest.
@@richardwood6017 nothing like now!! People didn’t snack 24/7 back then. Most ate three meals a day and more people cooked. I didn’t know what fast food was as a kid in the 60s.

You mentioned people trying to get the closest parking space possible. I get a kick watching people going to the gym to exercise will drive around the parking lot for 10 or more minutes to get a close parking spot. When my wife and I go to the grocery she gets annoyed at me for parking near the end of the parking lot. I tell her that I'd rather walk a bit further than to have to deal with the car and foot traffic close to entrance. Unfortunately she just doesn't get it.
Do the same. Great exercise
I just worry about getting hit by a car pulling out. So I do try to get close.
@@TudorCityGrrrl Yes, walking in a parking lot can be dangerous. You have to pay as much attention when walking as driving. I figure that while walking I'm a smaller target and can change direction a lot quicker.
I'm fat (changing that thru carnivore) but have parked way out for years. I HATE driving around to find a spot. I get in and out quicker by parking farther out. And fat or thin, the walk is better for me.
Maybe tell her you are actually doing it for both yourself and her to have a better, healthier life? 😉
Wow! Preach it brother. Everything you have been putting out is gold
How do you know?
My dad got type 2, that has set me up for life to avoid getting it. Going fine so far, turning 78 next week 😅. So appreciate you Dr Dhand, keep at it, you are not whistling in the wind 😊
You are a godsend Dr. for all people who have medical knowledge and for those people who don't. You are so revered for your knowledge and definitely for your HONESTY. MAY YOU LIVE A LONG & HEALTHY ❤LIFE.

The best part about quitting sugar is that after a while, you don’t even crave it anymore. I used to be THE BIGGEST sugar addict. Now I’ve been carnivore for 2 years.
I think there is something they do to white sugar that makes it more addictive. I switched to organic sugar years ago, which I use pretty much only for my coffee, and I really don't care for sweet foods anymore as I used to.
@@Itsallsotiresome
There's no such thing as "organic sugar". That's just sugar for which you pay more.
@@ianosgnatiuc You didn't even include a reason. You just made two flat opinionated statements that you're treating as a fact.
@@Itsallsotiresome
Yes that's just a fact how the sugar is made.
@@ianosgnatiuc There you go again. White sugar is bleached. Organic sugar is not. Organic in the phrasing is about how it is sourced, and the use of no pesticides or other man made chemicals on the sugar cane in the growing or harvesting process. A cancer sufferer who consumes white sugar will have a tougher time achieving full remission compared to a cancer sufferer who consumes organic sugar. Why? Because organic sugar contains nothing carcinogenic.
If you're gonna speak on a subject like this as if you know what you are talking about, you should do enough research so you do know what you are talking about.
Thankyou for the great informastion. I have a "Masters degree" in nutrition and totally agree with you. I am also 81 years old and do not have diabetes nor take any prescription meds.

65 years old and sarcopenic so I joined gymnastics. Best thing I could have done to improve my health.
Young people do not care that you are old and fat. The people at my gymnastics class don't want to hear excuses and are very supportive.
I really enjoy being around young people. It is a life saver for me.
Nice but what did you do for a change in your "diet"?
I am 61 and very deconditioned . I have never been able to do gymnastics and never been a real athlete. I am worried about ripping or pulling tendons muscles. Did you use to be a gymnast ? I’m just wondering what your baseline is ? I am pretty desperate because I am scared . It’s just me and I do not know what to do to start to become physically strong . M so many things I can not do because I can’t lift more than 10 lbs and there is no one to help. There is a lot of depression but that’s another story . Anyway thank you for any info you can send my way. Thank you again
@@Grungefan2018 You sound like me. But I am 5 years older than you!
My baseline is 0. I'm going to guess you already know what Dr D has said? As I do. But can't seem to start.
Might I suggest that you don't need to do gymnastics because you just read about it - only if you really want to. Make sure you are not grabbing at solutions just because you have read about it (as I do everyday).
Two things.
Start with walking outside every day. Even just to the nearest lamppost and go to the next one every few days. Do strength exercises easy to find on YT physiotherapy sites. Set yourself a goal of just doing these for 2 weeks or a month. Setting an easy goal is important, esp with depression around. You sound to me as if, like me, you, from fear, plan to transform your world 100% every day; but it never happens? Just do this initially, to get started, then, in a few weeks, it may come to you what, more group, exercise you would enjoy doing. Maybe Tai Chi or Xi Gung? Seniors kick boxing even. 😀 Both increase strength. Do it because you enjoy it. That's important. Find your own path.
Second thing, write down, in a notebook, what you plan, your thoughts, why you are doing it. That is your friend. Writing things down make things more real in our minds. Use a PEN and PAPER! Typing does not have the same connection to your brain as hand writing does.
I hope, for both of us, we can follow this and start to make changes.
Another tip is to list to Dr Michael Mosley's series 'Just One Thing', for many small, positive changes we can all make.
I wish us both the best of luck. xx
@@Grungefan2018 just start. and keep going. find lifting videos, lift what you can 3 sets of 5 or 6.
I started lifting at 54. slowly
Good advice. Just walk a little. Go upstairs a couple of times. Lift a can of beans. Little steps
Do NOT bring junk, processed foods into your home. This is just one thing that helps me.

I like the way you put it:”It’s your temple, why would you put any toxic into it?!” But actually it’s God’s Temple why would you put any toxic chemicals into it?! ❤
There's more bullshit in religion than in the food and medicine industries combined.
I would suggest not relying on willpower and setting up your home food environment such that the healthy choices the default choice. Higher risk, tempting foods are best left outside of the house to be enjoyed on occasion
I stopped baking a long time ago. I live alone. I would make brownies with the idea I'd eat them slowly over time. In fact, I'd have a day where my emotions went haywire and those brownies could disappear kwik
I was so sad when we stopped baking brownies and cookies, but it has saved my wife's life and slowed my aging.
'Nothing tastes so good as being healthy feels.'
Quit the carbs. Quit everything in the middle aisles of the suoermarket as well as the packaged foods in the fridges.
Treat vegetables with care. They have anti-nutrients. And you can't be sure of which fertilisers, pesticides and fungicides were used to grow them.
Eat beef(and fish, pork, chicken if you wish) butter (or lard , tallow, ghee, duck fat to cook with), bacon and eggs with salt and water. Do it for a month and you won't look back.

My mum has Diabetes, but shelistened to my advice and changed her diet and got mostly off carbs. After her last blood test, the Dr was stunned as she had the best levels and asked her "What are you doing?" - smirk ✨️✨️✨️
By the question you see they do not know what they are doing. I do not go to id**** like that. You are dead long term.
My doctor warned me that my diet was "really dangerous" but after ten years she admitted "By now I would have expected you to be on two or three diabetes medications". Another nine years and I'm still on none plus I came off all my other meds.
The only downside is that now I am nineteen years older. That wouldn't have happened if I continued to eat the dietician's diet, I would be much fatter, on lots of drugs and almost certainly already dead.

@@chrischillingworth4812 Happy to hear you're still doing so well and that you are still among us.
What did you change in how you eat? Low carb?
@@Joegengstah Yes, I used my glucometer to tell me how many carbs I could eat when. Initially I was limited to 15g at breakfast and 30g by evening. After I had been doing it for a while my morning tolerance strangely reduced to 10g but by evening I could eat 80 or even 100g, a useful party trick but I mostly stick below 50g/day. I eat more protein and especially fat until I could smell the ketones in my pee. Today I had a thickly buttered oatcake with smoked salmon for breakfast, and I just had an evening meal of bacon, lamb's liver and a giant mushroom lightly fried in EVOO with some broccoli boiled briefly a couple more thickly buttered oatcakes and a glass of malbec. Other days I eat rump steak and buttered asparagus or ham and buttered peas and similar stuff.
I used to eat breakfast then not eat again until I became hungry, which might be any time between late afternoon and late evening, irrespective of whether I was sat at my computer or walking round the bird reserve, up and down the coast or over the heaths and farmland. Now I can't walk so much. Obviously people especially doctors will blame eating too much fat or meat and completely ignore over fifty years of diabetic damage.
You mean refined carbs like candy, pop, doughnuts, cookies, cakes not complex carbs whole grains the body's much preferred source of fuel .

Thanks for being straight with us! I am on my journey of changing my habits. Already seeing results and I’m not looking back.
I appreciate this video. It gives me a lot to thing about. I do read labels and I do try to make good food purchases and cook a lot of what I eat at home. I have fallen prey to the sugar/carb addiction and the sedentary lifestyle. I already knew that but it it something I needed to hear someone say to me. I am 78 years old and until recently, since covid, have gained about 35 pounds and have had osteoarthritis that has given me a lot of hip pain that I have given in to. Most of the weight gain is around my middle and it makes me miserable. In the last month I have started checking my BP regularly and it is high most of the time. I have noticed some physical symptoms like headaches and jitteriness. I do believe I can get this under control. I need to save this video and listen to it everyday until i know I am doing all the things I should be doing. Thanks for listening and keep this excellent information coming.
Even the labels often lie.
They can be misleading; however, once one knows how to read them, they still help identify bad food. My rule is to avoid food with labels that mention any ingredient unavailable before the Industrial Revolution. Combining that with minimizing even real single-ingredient foods that are high carb, life is much better.
The only way to know for sure what is in our food is to prepare it from raw ingredients. Either that or get a chemistry degree in order to understand the labels.

I watch every day. Your wisdom is very much appreciated. Thank you for all the work you do.
I am doing omad carnivore and my life has never been better. Healthy at 70. I take no medications or supplements.
What is omad carnivore?
I was doing high protein/ low carb, animal fats included. Certain vegetables, legumes and grains tend to be my main IBS triggers. I eat the veggies that don’t trigger it.
I can’t afford to do it consistently anymore. I do what I can but it is having an impact on me. My IBS has returned and my joints are back to aching. Canada’s food prices are wild. The healthy foods are the ones that have skyrocketed the most in cost.
The other issue is grocery stores selling expired food and spoiled produce. This is becoming too common of an occurrence where I live.
Who wants to buy grey hamburger and moldy tomatoes and peppers? Rotting grapes, anyone?
I have food allergies and IBS so I read food labels and have for many years. I buy products that have the least amount of ingredients with ingredients that you can actually pronounce.

Nothing of that will lower the insulin. That's impossible physically. The only way to lower insulin is to eat less carbs.
You know what is very interesting? There are 8 million people in the UK waiting for surgery and they say it will take a year to start the process. I guess a medical system is completely destroyed in the UK. The United States is next. Great video. Spot on. Thank you very much doc.

Again so TRUE;this bigger picture you so eloquently give is just so true. Thank you (and the Stoïcs you obviously have read) You are a medical frontline fighter for sure! Thanks again!
I'm following your advice. Most of my friends have it....
Well stated!!! I spend time now reading labels like never before. self-preservation is the key! If you don't move sh--t happens! Keep up the good fight!
Thank you dr dhand i have payed atention for a while now god bless you for healthy life
This is.a great message and also it is helpful for those who are 50 and above, especially women going through massive hormonal changes, to know that the transformation may be slower and you can get to great change even if it is slow going to get there. I've been working at it for 2 years very consistently and with the support of a great low carb doctor and community. It can be discouraging because the natural body changes are counteracting the work I'm doing, so I am not seeing a miraculous turn around despite the hard work. But I would be much worse off if I wasn't doing these positive changes while going through perimenopause/menopause. So if you are feeling discouraged, keep on going. It may not be "weeks", it may be years, but it is worth it!

Just make up your mind that you are going this for life, not just for a few weeks or months.
Excellent Dr Dhand. If you weren't saying it, no one would. People are listening to you, me definitely. Thank you.
Keep going, you are doing a FANTASTIC job at Wake Up America!
It certainly is an industry and doctors are enabling it by lowering the criteria for diagnosis at regular intervals.
I've been watching your videos and have lowered my A1c from 8.3% to now 6.1 low carbs are a real game changer thanks Doctor.
Well done! Keep it up 🙌🏽
Excellent advice!! Thank you Dr Dhand for your honesty.🎉
Your straightforward approach helps convey the urgency of preventing this illness. Great work raising awareness!
Natural movement recommendations are sound 👍🏽
You are a wise doctor, a doer of good - thank you. I also approve of your taste in books (I had a peep while you were talking 😀).
😆
Brilliant Dr. Expert advice and guidance. Straight to the point.
Thanks Dr Dhand. Your advice focusses on what you should eat. That is absolutely correct. I would add point 4 though as follows.
How much you eat is also very important because what you body cannot use it is programmed to store the balance as fat.
Make a fist with your hand...that is the size of stomach. Don't need much food...most folks overeat...❤
Do you think taking Vitamin D helps to combat insulin resistance?
That helps with bone minerals and immune function. Exercise, reducing carbs, sugary drinks, and alcohol, and eating quality food helps
No.
Getting proper B vitamin complex is more likely to help, since they are necessary for proper metabolism of macronutrients.
Oh how true your comments are. I have a dear friend who has diabetes and it’s getting worse. She was just in hospital after having a hyper episode and is now on insulin injections, she has cataracts in both eyes is vastly overweight too. She keeps saying the doctors have told her this is not her fault. I’m gobsmacked they told her that. I tried to help her when she was pre diabetic but in only 6 months she is on the insulin . I’m having to make a step back as she continues on this path as I just can’t make her see. All the info and videos I have sent her from TH-cam she will not watch or listen. Is so sad to see this happening to her but I’m angry at the same time!
Thank you Dr. Dhand-I share all of you're videos to all my Family & Friends!
In many jurisdictions fioe gras (AKA non alcoholic liver disease in geese) is illegal. It is considered unethical and inhumane. The geese are fattened with high carbohydrate food for corporate profit. But this is exactly how food corporations are treating consumers. Consumers are treated like feedlot animals, fattened up for corporate profit. We sometimes treat animals better than people. We need an RSPCA for humans as well as animals and one which is not corrupted for corporate funding.
I don’t think foie gras is a big corporate item, it’s mostly from private farms. And yes, the farmer wants to make a profit, that’s how he survives. But I get your point.
Good observation!, " British farmers have been banned from producing foie gras since 2007".
Great analogy.

Thank you, Dr. Dhand. I stopped adding sugar in my coffee now. 😊
I don’t think that will hurt you, people in the 50’, and 60’s put sugar in their coffee, it’s the processed foods

Discipline is the key to a healthy body Dr Dhand thank u for sharing.
I decided to go keto. I do not eat meat either. I was eating too much processed,so three years ago I decided to pull my big girl pants up and take care of myself. Carbs are the killer , processed food is dangerous! I also fast . My blood sugars have plummeted. I was 11 @ my highest. Shocked to be told by my diabetic nurse that she nursed folk whose blood sugars were in the 30s..WOW.. I am 58 and strength train, athlete in my youth,but had my kids,work and just did not think about my diet.,This Doc is 100 per cent correct
I've been a carnivore for a little over a year and was strict keto for over 2 decades before that. I can lift more than men 1/3 my age. I can't drink alcohol because my body doesn't have alcohol dehydrogenase in sufficient amounts. That makes me 6 to 10 times more likely to develop esophageal cancer if I drink, like the grandpa I never met who died at age 58 from that disease. I have no idea what a cigarette tastes like. I train 3 of my friends 3 times per week in my house, but I can't convince them to stop eating carbs, sugar, and processed foods. You would think that since I'm the same age and am the only one who doesn't have diabetes, obesity, HBP, and am not on a statin, they'd give up eating human kibble, but the addiction is so powerful. If I'm not working out, I'm working someone else out. I even walk my cat, and he gets at least 20 minutes of quality play every day in addition to that. My dad had his first heart attack before he was even 40. That was in the early 70s when everyone was skinny, too. Luckily, I was a hyper child who had to be put in gymnastics. I broke a neighbor's basement couch by jumping on it repeatedly. I got long Covid in 2020, so severe, the doctor thought I had a major stroke. Weeks earlier, I set a personal best of 142 consecutive pushups, so it was devastating. I gained 20 lbs over half a year as I battled the severe fatigue that came with it. If I overdid it, I'd pay for days after. I'm not 100% yet with my endurance, but my strength is greater than before, which is great since I'm turning 60 this winter. Eating meat is like a fountain of youth. I can't explain it, but it seems very obvious that it's nutrient dense and all of those nutrients are bioavailable. I got IBS from the Covid booster shot. It went into remission when I eliminated plants. I am the only person in my family with no fillings. I can do more pushups than Joe Rogan, but my 2 sisters can't do 1 pushup between the two of them, and one is thin. My brother and I are more dedicated to maintaining a good quality of life as we age through exercise. He is really into intense bike riding. I outlift him, but he kicks my cardio butt. He also eats better. He has the self-control to eat 1/2 of a homemade sandwich and a vegetable or a piece of fruit. He's 65 and seems immune from food addiction. He has never gained weight in his life. I joke that when it comes to math and weight, he got the Japanese genes.🤣 Although I was a wirey athletic kid, weighing 110 lbs. all through my 20s and riding my bike to work, after menopause, I seem to have a choice of being chubby or muscular. Keeping my furnace as big as possible has kept my dad's and grandpa's diabetic tendencies in check. I can't even look at a bagel, or I'm doomed. If you want to really piss off Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and Big Food, eat only REAL food in its natural form. There's nothing more annoying to your typical doctor than when you are in better shape than they are, and they could be your kid.🤣🤣
Sorry, but you aren't and never will be a carnivore. You are an omnivore. There is also no support for that fad diet, and a lot of issues. So do you follow the Beef and Milk only version from the 1850's, , or the version that allows only meat and hot water? Good luck with lowering your risk for diabetes the same amount you increase your risk for cancer, Gout, and Kidney disease, and destroy the environment while you are at it. Smart move.
Love your videos! Thank you for the wonderful advice! ❤
As a person with a recently diagnosed thyroid issue, I am keenly aware on what is in our food thus avoid them. I do read labels. The issue is the price of food in general, they make it cheaper for a reason, the addiction factor from what is these foods unless you grow it yourself. I avoid soda, fast food and work on a horse farm before I see patients at my job. Today after I fasted my glucose was 91. Intermittent fasting is ok, but I don’t make a habit of it. I make most of what I eat. Growing vegetables is what I do. Currently have squash growing in the back yard that I will be canning for soup in the winter time. I don’t trust the FDA they are corrupted.
Too bad they don't label the meats or fresh vegetables, as we know they are poison and artificial too.
I am on a low dose of synthroid. I’d like to get off it. Do you have any idea how to do that? I think most peolle are deficien5 in iodine. And that is what makes your thyroid work. I’ve been eating sardines for lunch several times a week and I have some iodine drops I use in water. One drop a day.
@@lizwilliams14 Dr. Westin Childs video on the subject. I suggest seeing an endocrinologist in your area. They will do blood work to see where you’re at. Be upfront with what you consume, even supplements. I hope this helps.
@@lizwilliams14 The thyroid is sensitive to toxins, especially heavy metals. Try Dr Pompa's three stage detox program. The third stage cured my 17 years of hypothyroidism. No more meds.
Thank you! Agree with you 100%. Up until a few years ago I had good eyesight, but now have to wear low-power glasses for reading. I do shop & eat healthily, but checking food labels is a challenge. I don't like wearing these optical appendages, so rarely do so when shopping. But even if I do, the 'small print' is so small that ingredients lists are difficult to read. The print size should be such that, even without glasses, it is readable. Additionally, I mistakenly bought some pork pies with some fancy name ('hog-roast' I believe). Upon eating them I discovered they had been sweetened: however, there was nothing on the packaging to indicate that that they contained sugar! Buyer Beware!
What an inspiring video! Thank you
After watching this video I decided to park in the lower parking lot every day. This forces me to take what we call on campus "The Stairway to Heaven". And I take the stairs up to my office on the second floor (alway done that). That's a total of 100 (stair) steps. By the time I get to the top, I am a little out of breath and my legs hurt. But it will get better.
Most honest, forthright doctor on TH-cam.
You are a good man for being straight forward and threatening but giving hope to all who are willing to change. It works if I work it, I am with it so I will work it.
I do believe a lot of what you say and I will admit I don't have a ton of time to make my own food. I do run 4 miles/day though, so that's a plus. I did keto and lost a lot of weight, but my cholesterol numbers got quite high (albeit the test uses a formula I believe and it overestimates when you have low triglycerides).
Eating in some ways becomes a bit of a chore and so I can often reach to those quick snacks which likely does stall losing my last 50 lbs or so. But indeed I need to plan easy and quick meals to keep on top of things.
Carbs can be an ugly cycle, although it is nice to indulge to some degree. The issue though is that it makes you want to eat more carbs.
I suppose I ought to be a bit more of a stoic 😂
You don't have to read ingredient labels if you don't eat foods with ingredient labels. Dr. Pradip Jamnadas has a saying: "If food has a bar code on it, don't eat it."
I just ate a food with an ingredient label on the bag. It said "Peaches".
@@wellhellothere6347 Well, peaches, probably not grown in your area and out of season isn't exactly good for you either.
Love Dr. Jamnadas! He's another great doctor like Dr. Dhand.

Ultimately, we are all responsible for our own health. There is so much information available to live a clean and healthy life...if you choose to ignore the advice you should expect to get sick. Period.
The information in conflicting, deliberately.
Numerous health "experts " insists on plant based, low fat.
But others insists on high fat low carb.
Happened to me. At 56 yrs old. An avid cyclist, clocking 200 km a week. I couldn’t drop a pound, and eventually became diabetic. Not an overeater, but ate primarily carbohydrates and had a sweet tooth. After cutting almost all processed carbs and cut almost all processed refined sugar, I am almost below prediabetic blood sugar level and dropped 20 pounds. In 3 months! I’m never going back, and anyone who asks how I lost so much weight I tell them it’s sugar and processed carbs. I’m not keto. I’m not no carb, I am no processed carbs and no sugar! Yes it’s hard to make the shift, but so satisfying when you succeed! If I can do it at my age. Anyone can!
Can you speak about polysorbate 60 or 80? And methyl cellulose additives? Thanks. What do they cause? Why is it added to food?
I always check ingredients for Polysorbate 80. It is one of those chemicals found in both edibles and cosmetics to improve texture. I can actually taste it and it's nasty.
I read the ingredients on everything I buy. One single ingredient I don't want in my body and I don't buy it. I cook myself and rarely eat out. I use my home gym (most people can get at least some dumbbells, a bench and a mat) 3-4 times per week. Taking walks almost every day. A run or two per week on top of that. I'm not training HARD but I don't just go through the emotions. I don't think doing what I've just written is hard at all and at 45y it keeps me in great shape. Very easy to do for most of us, buying clean food and moving the body.
I agree 👍 I rarely have ice cream, but when I do I get the real stuff. Usually 3 ingredients. Cream, sugar, cocoa. Other crappy ice creams have a long long list of Ingredients I don't even recognize. 😮 just eat real food. ❤
Great video!
I'm in Germany. Our catsitter's diabetic father just came home from the hospital after doctors removed most of his leg!
I don't know what our lovely catsitter eats but she's very fat and believes that diabetes is genetic.
Thank you, Dr. Dhand. We must make careful choices every day, in many ways.
Stay well, everyone. 🍁
There is a genetic version. I used to work in a dance shop and my boss’s grandsons both have it. She was paediatric nurse who worked in the neonatal unit so she assisted in their care.
It came from their father who is a carrier. Both of her grandsons were born with it. Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus. It’s a form of monogenic diabetes.
@@tammylaronde8593The rate of occurrence is apparently 1 in 90,000 births, so most people who think it's genetic aren't referring to that type, and don't associate their own dietary choices with poor health outcomes.
I hope you can help your catsitter out of the hole. x
Type 1 diabetes is something people are born with. The diabetes that Dr. Dhand speaks of is type 2 diabetes. Big difference.
@@bb2021 I don't offer advice.
Most people are ignorant to their addictions.
What's yours?
For around 24 years I've been overweight, exhausted and now am increasingly struggling cognitively. I also had a small stroke.
4 years ago my digestion became a big issue with a sensation of fullness and severe indigestion.
I developed pain under my rib and very recently my GP has informed me that I probably need my gallbladder removing and that it could become a medical emergency.
She also has sent me for tests to ascertain whether my liver is salvageable.
I admit I am reeling but I'm overweight and addicted to carbs. Please don't assume that everything is OK just because you don't have symptoms yet.
Remove bad foods from your house entirely then. Develop good habits and keep pushing. Feeling bad is a anowball effect, but so is feeling good. Keep going and it will get better and better. YOU CAN DO IT!!! GOD BLESS!
Doctor , Will you consider doing a video on Chronic Kidney Disease. That seems to be a disease that many people have or are going to get . ❤
thank you Dr very very informative… oh and where did you buy your splendid coat…?
Excellent Dr Dhand 👌👌👌
Food corporations in general take a lackadaisical approach toward creating a product with safety and nutrition at the forefront. Marketing and profit squeeze it out unless the target market is aware and looking for specifics in that area. Dr. Dhand you are right on subject with your outlook and recommendations to the public at large. Many people think that if the product is in the marketplace it has been properly vetted, who would sell poison food to someone it is believed. I have maintained the understanding that we live in a world where a company will sell you cigarettes, hardly a healthful product.
I started reading food labels in 1970 after reading Adele Davis. And in the 70’s there was a lot less poison in our diet. Good rule is don’t eat anything your grandma wouldn’t recognize as food
Not always! It was my gran who turned my mother on to Trex the UK equivalent of Crisco. Prior to that she used lard. She went back to it later fortunately. Oh I just flashed back to her suet pudding.
Good video and very comprehensive. I don't know about others but my body tells me to exercise. I go on regular spirited walks and look for jobs which are strenuous like gardening and jobs requiring tools. If I were to sit around my body would say 'get out and move'. I always park well away from shops (easy to find a space) and walk - often not directly- there.
I also go for country walks and am amazed how FEW PEOPLE I meet. Despite this I am pre diabetic so very aware of what I eat now.
HEAR! HEAR! Dr Dhand
I'm from the UK was diagnosed with type 2 ,7 years ago about 8 months after my mum passed away after a year battle with Vascular Dementia, I ended up comfort eating after she died to a ridiculous level, my Hba1c was 52 I managed to reverse it a few months after diagnoses and managed to stay with in the range for about 5 years, unfortunately couple years ago i had some other trauma happen and started the comfort eating again as was severely depressed, my Hba1c is now 110 and I'm on metformin which effects my stomach, I'm trying to stop the bad eating habit's again as want to reverse it again. Blood test again in Jan next year to see if improved. Also not long after I was diagnosed I had an appointment with the diabetic nurse at the surgery and she said whilst looking at my notes and said oh yeah, a year ago when you had a blood test we knew you were pre diabetic and was like all happy with herself didn't think much of it till went home and thought why the bloody hell didn't anyone phone me and let me know, could have prevented the condition altogether, pretty sure that's medical negligence. I haven't done anything about it as too much time has passed now, but did pi** me right off.
