Are fruits good for diabetics? People keep googling that. It's ridiculous. But we can't blame you. The advent of the internet has brought conflicting information to your screens, leaving you baffled about the role of fruit in your diet and diabetes management.
Recently, doctors, experts, and influencers have bombarded us with claims that fruits are detrimental to our health. Much like white table sugar, they assert that fruits can cause weight gain and raise blood glucose levels.
Then you have the plant-based community like us proposing the exact opposite, urging you to reduce dietary fat, eliminate meat and dairy, and embrace fruits. Because incorporating fruits into your diet is an excellent strategy for enhancing metabolic health, promoting weight loss, and sustaining long-term well-being.
With such conflicting perspectives, it becomes crucial to seek clarity. In this case, let science settle the debate.
From 'fruit is just carbs' to 'fruit is worse for you than meat', here's Cyrus to shatter those stubborn myths!
00:00 - Intro
6:10 - Myth 1: Fruit is just carbs, and carbs are bad
14:32 - Myth 2: Eating fruit is like eating spoonfuls of table sugar
19:21 - Myth 3: Fruit spikes your blood sugar
24:12 - The Mastering Diabetes method
24:40 - Myth 4: Eating fruit will make you gain weight
40:05 - Myth 5: Fruit is worse for you than meat
48:13 - Summary

#insulinsensitivity
Anytime, I crave for sweet, I eat fruits and it’s very satisfying. And sometime, I combine fruits with nuts, it’s even better.
Regarding the healthiest way to regain metabolic health and insulin sensitivity, you are a voice crying in the wilderness.
Jay-z
Agreed. Just don’t eat carbs with fat. Or extremely sm drizzle!
Metabolic traffic jam. High insulin resistance is causing weight gain. Solution: lower fat and make sure you are not eating too many calories. Ty!
I feel this is a major injustice
I'm eating an apple and am a THIN Type 1 Insulin dependent Diabetic. My Glucose will go up - true. However my glucose will come right back down, and I do feel better with a touch of energy with a good healthy feeling after the Apple or any fruit. I do take it easy with Pineapple, Banana and Mangos, just because these fruits spike my Glucose for a longer period of time. Results of Fruit verses Sugar - No headaches. I do stay low on Carbs of any kind.
The presence of Mastering Diabetes and their prolific content is immeasurably awesome!!!
I am very thankful.
This man’s advice is absolutely correct. Watch Denise Minger’s synopsis of the research in TH-cam video called “In defence of low fat”. I tried it. It actually works…really well! The carbs are used perfectly in a low fat diet. It’s the fat that screws up our metabolism. So eat lots of fruit. It’s extremely good for you. It’s alive afterall.
All this new Info I been getting makes me get a headache 🤕 😅 I was recently diagnosed as pre diabetic and cut crabs overnight and went keto.. after 2 months and doing research it didn’t make sense to me how numbers still spike everytime we eat carbs.. so it’s just a bandage.. I need something to cure insulina resistance.. trying to find the right diet
i am type 2 diabetic.i followed keto for one year but ate bit of carbs one day my blood gulucose went up to 11.5.
Now I am follow very low fat diet.week 3 today no fat had large bowl of chickpea with boiled potatoes and rice just for experiment because my bloody blood sugar is not going up for so many days. Potatoes used to send my blood gulucose through the roof.decided to test after 1 and half hour.i was thinking its gonna be Around or above 12.but came out 4.7(84).i could not believe i thought meter didnt read it right.i did it again it was 4.6.how is that even possible? Then had a large bowl of oats.it went only up to 6.basically I am very insulin sensitive now.
This is GOLD. If you want to understand insulin resistance, Cyrus's explanation at 19:21 (Myth 3: Fruit spikes your blood sugar) is the best I've heard so far. I once was eating sticks of butter a day, afraid of fruit and getting sicker by the day, and now I'm happy, fit, and eat fruit all day! The Mastering Diabetes content and book gave me confirmation and understanding along the way. Thanks guys!
For me, including fruits in my diet squelched cravings for desserts.
Dr. Ken Berry, MD, has a channel and he is a very strong proponent of the keto diet, and he himself has gone 100% carnivore. He feeds his child bacon as a snack and has nothing good to say about fruits/vegetables. He is very convincing and after watching a few of his videos I decided to try keto, not for weight loss but simply to start eating healthier and improve overall health factors. After two months of off and on constipation along with frequent night time foot/ankle/calf cramps I quit the diet and have gone plant based whole food. I no longer have late night cramps and am VERY regular now. I attribute my former cramping to inadequate intake of potassium and other electrolytes/minerals while doing keto. Another popular youtube influencer is a doctor who has similar keto message and encourages her patients to go all in on keto, with her favorite food item being a can of sardines regularly....Dr. Annette Bosworth, MD.
I did keto for 2 months too because I am prediabetic.. didn’t make sense to me when I found out that people doing Leto for yrs still get spikes of sugar everytime they eat carbs.. so that’s not worth it for me. Also.. I started having some pain like soreness in my right side.. I think it was my liver.
@@yennyjen5742
My relative’s dr put him on keto diet only for three months. Strict keto bring down his high sugar levels. But he was advised not to continue keto forever as it will affect your body adversely.
My relative knocked off his insulin resistance and lost 15 kg. It was drastic but it helped. Nevertheless keto is not meant for long term.
I’m type 2 diabetic. Eating most fruits spike my glucose. I also had non-alcoholic fatty liver. Fruits contain fructose. Only the liver can process it and fructose contributes to fatty liver. I quit eating fruit and carbs and reversed my fatty liver and my type 2. Carnivore diet will give you diahrea at first for a few weeks as your body purges. Then that stops and you won’t have to go as much. Your body will use most of the food you eat and there won’t be as much waste not eating fiber you can’t digest. I got constipated once and learned that i needed to eat more fat. Fat is good for you. Carnivore made me feel awesome. I love fruit but now i avoid it.
@@gioxpfr Try fasting so you can eat healthier. Break fasts with fruit, as "they" say fruit should be eaten first on an empty stomach due to digestion. Fasting, I got rid of my insulin resistance and fatty liver. My cholesterol and triglycerides also plummeted.
@@yennyjen5742 Try intermittent fasting.
Very hard to get a good variety of fruits and vegetables in New York. All the fruits are delivered before they are ripe and have no taste and lower nutrition.
Peaches are hard as a rock and rot before they ripen.
Get frozen
Most useful message is distinction between simple (processed and refined) carbs Vs complex (natural and whole) carbs. I do Keto and used to fear all carbs but now learning I do not need to.
I almost got sucked into the keto world as well, but later learned that I can control my glucose spikes despite eating carbs - good carbs that is.
@@ZsuzsaKarolySmith Keto can work too but just need be careful with saturated fats and focus more using Monousaturated and polyunsaturated fats instead. I found Keto helps me more with Intermittent Fasting and once a day meals which has other benefits beyond weight loss.
@@chewiewins I like a good keto recipe, but I don’t need to lose weight, so I started eating carbs in moderation but not for breakfast! That puts me on a blood sugar roller coaster 🎢 but I’m ok if I eat them later in the day, esp if I exercise afterwards - that immediately burns off the glucose without causing a spike!
@@ZsuzsaKarolySmith I also not need lose weight but like keep my HbA1C low, previously borderline diabetic
@@chewiewins how low is your Hba1c ?
My family didn’t have history of diabetes. My younger brother ate too much fruits that caused him to have type 2 diabetes fruits that such as bananas,oranges,watermelon, sugar apple ranbutan, mango and many more Asian exotic fruits because he got a idea that fruits are good for the body but the blood test shown different .He never drink, never smoke, and never go out at night he exercises 4-5 times a week and sleeps 7-9 hours a day. He eats vegetables and fish most of the days. He got diabetes because consumed too much fructoses and that glucose converter into fructose caused insulin resistant. The main driver that causes chronic diseases today is fructose. All sugar turn into fructose inside the body and causes damaging to the body organs.
He doesn’t drinks sodas
Thank you for speaking the truth based on real-world experience. Several modern-day varieties of fruits have been bred specifically to have high sugar content because it sells, bananas in particular. This video has one of the most irresponsible, ill-informed messages for diabetics I have ever seen on YT, and I have seen hundreds of them.
That is also my understanding. It is fructose that causes fatty liver disease . Yes glucose converts to fructose. Cyrus says it is the fat that causes insulin resistance. It is the fat created by fructose. Fructose is only present in fruits or processed foods like sugar etc. yes there is fiber in fruit.
😂
Maybe he ate dairy or eggs or meat or vegetable oils , so it made his insulin not to work and he hot diebities
Ha ha I was of the pure keto attedute as well ,until I watched Dennis pollock and discovered that low carb food etc keto food is not the total answear. I ate today mixed grain full began bread 2 slices with my eggs and lamb chops. But the secret I have found is to do with 2 things, first you must consume some fibire eg cabbage broccoli b4 you consume your carbs. Then if you go for a good 20 min walk or as I do e bike right for 5 KS then you get a fantastic result. It's all about the blood sugar spike, you still have to be careful but you can freaking live not have to just eat meat and fat. When I eat some good carbs my body responds and I get back a bit of strength. I have also found its not about just calories ,yes of course you have to be careful but it's about our blood sugar spike. When I did these things and tested my sugars after 1 hour then 3 I got 6.8 then 4.8 and was truly amazed.
Thank you! We need more info like this. It's very sad to see women eating a few sticks of butter a day saying it's healthy?
Hi Cyrus. Thank you for making this video. You’re incredibly knowledgeable and very good at explaining things. Excellent video, very interesting, and informative.
Love fruit! I could not feel good without it! I break my fasts (14-20 hours) with fruit. Fruit first! I especially include pomegranate and kiwi. I suffered from insulin resistance my whole life, but now my fasting insulin is a 5 thanks to INTERMITTENT FASTING, and I do not hesitate to start my meals with a fruit plate.
Key point: stop the fat FIRST before adding fruits.
Thank you so much for all of your informative videos! I can’t tell you how helpful they are and I feel I can trust you bc of all of your education and actual studies related to this issue. I am so scepter of fruit from years of wrong thinking. I recently got my A1C down to 5.5 from 5.7 through a WFPB diet but I’m struggling w eating fruit because it may go back up!!!
Crazy thinking so thanks for all you do to educate us!!
Test everything with your glucometer. Everyone is different.
So if I'm insulin resistant is it worth the glucose spikes of eating fruits in the short to medium term to achieve more insulin sensitivity?
I'm guessing along with a tweak of your total diet not consuming so much bad foods with high fats
Thank you! Just purchased the book. Very excited to read it thoroughly
Loving all your videos now that I found your channel! Thank you!!!
Bravo!!!
I will listen to this again. Master full!! And I’m not diabetic😊
My understanding from listening to many of your videos and reading Mastering Diabetes is that it's really about getting the intramyocellular and intrahepatocyte lipid levels down (fat in skeletal muscle cells and liver cells), which causes the lion's share of the insulin resistance. This could take some time when following the mastering diabetes guidelines depending on many factors such as age, degree of obesity, degree of hormonal dysregulation, genetics, etc. Until intracellular lipid levels start to normalize, blood sugar can indeed spike with higher glycemic fruits, aka very ripe bananas, and starches but that will normalize quickly if one stays on the protocol. This is my understanding of that issue.

In the book there is a method to starting the diet that eliminates fruit for a couple days.
I wish they would respond to your questions. 😔
I'd like to know too. This info is already the complete opposite of what I've ever heard. 🥺
@@beekind6267 This information is exactly what I have heard from the actual studies on real diabetics by scientists.
So I'm guessing the book will tell you how to get rid of skeletal muscle and liver fat lipid levels to achieve eating fruits on a regular basis large amounts
Following these people’s advice has been the solution to the specific nature of my diabetes.
Fruit has become very expensive here. 20 servings a day isnt affordable for me, plus storing it all in my living situation.
Do raw lentil sprouts have the same nutrition as cooked lentils? They are much more easily digested, but can I count them as a serving of legumes?
When I ate a lot of grapes last Fall, my A1c and the glucose meter readings went up. However, I really felt better and the urine pH went up to 6 to 7.4 and with less acidity my legs felt much lighter. Can't remember if I gained or last weight, though.
Wow. That was GOOD! Thank you! SO informative.
Thanks!
I just ordered the book to try to learn about it! God bless you all.
I am on board with this and do well with fruit but what is a good macro ratio to start with also protien amounts. I know how to get the protein just looking for min level
This has been a great resource! Thank you. I have a question. Would this work for hypoglycemia? I have reactive hypoglycemia and was diagnosed as a teen. Fast forward 66 years. Still the same.
Absolutely gorgeous. Also perfect timing, me and my partner have been discussing this recently so this is such a beautiful synchronicity. Thank you both for sharing
Excellent video Cyrus!
💙
Thank you ! Important information giving us more helpful control over our health !
We're happy to do it!
Thanks so much for this! Very helpful!
Excellent presentation. Very informative and backed by research findings from meta analysis and own experience. I watched your video from East Timor.
I'm glad to hear the video , so informative.
I've been on your diet but I'm down to 97 lb how do I gain weight without getting off of this diet
Very Thorough talk. Thank you for taking the time to enlighten us.❤
So if someone is just starting with a wfpb diet , but still on Metformin and blood pressure meds, and statins, they should or shouldn't eat fruit?
This guy is a genius, new founded and I love it. Such a great help. I am learning so much❤
We're happy to hear we could help! 💙
Cyrus Great info! but When you say “the trick is to become LESS INSULIN RESISTANT before you begin eating the fruit “ that sounds like you’re saying hold off with eating any fruit until you have a lower glucose reading. But I sip and fruit smoothie in small amounts at various times spread out during my eating hours. And I have noticed my fasting glucose is lower. I also make sure I do yoga regularly throughout my day which helps too.
@tea7030 maybe it was solely due to your yoga instead ?
Great video Cyrus.
Very informative 👏 👌 got more understanding
How long does it take for the cells of an insulin resistant individual to flush out the fat that's preventing the insulin from getting in? I suppose it depends on the amount of excess fat an individual is carrying and how much fat they are consuming. But is it a matter of weeks, months or years?
After about just 1 week I noticed improvement and started to lose weight that I couldn't lose before. I ate pasta and weight was dropping because I was vegan. Then weight stopped dropping. I still need 5 lbs to lose.
I think a major problem is there are all of these youtube doctors making absolute claims with completely opposite opinions leading the general public to no longer trust doctors and their institutions. Before making anymore claims they should get together , sort through the data , run experiments , have private discourse . If. No conclusion is reach simply state “we dont know for sure but our current Opinion is this this and that …subject to change at any time”
Listen to your body and learn what works best for you. However, I can tell you that eating 20 servings of fruits a day would be disastrous for me, but then again I have common sense 😂
Same here.. I don't believe in fruit.
Doctors are too busy running patients through their offices to generate income.
This Dr...PhD...has the studies to support his positions
Like he said focus on losing fat in the cells which causes insulin resistance.
@DarthJeremy364, why do you need for them to do this , you can experiment each dietary intervention and let your blood works decide which is right for you over a 3 to 6 months period ?
how do you figure out Thermic effet + exercice accurately 🧐🧐🧐🧐 ???
Thank you for sharing this truth.🙏🏾
My journey has taken me exactly wat your saying now. I eat 1 apple a day normally grannysmith not as sweet as galas etc. The keto world has gone to far to the right in my view now. The plane sour apple yes has 16 carbs but they are released with their fibire slowly. Also green pears and strawberry are good with yogurt fat one
Thank you so much. I'm Diabetic and scared of the numbers but if I keep it whole and plant based I will be loosing fat no matter what the meter says looks like I will be okay. I'm happily jumping into the Plant Based lifestyle 🎉🎉
You're welcome! Here if you need support!
Eliminate all carbs and go to an Albany diet and your A1C will take you right out of diabetic range. There's hundreds of videos online and thousands of people who've had this happen. Fruit spikes blood sugar
I would be happy to lose weight and keep it off forever.
@deeshelton6440, after 8 months how are you feeling now and what is your latest Hba1c any improvement ?
You are doing the right thing. I’m following plant based whole food with a little meat thrown in and I’m getting better.
I follow a type 1 diabetic who shows his CGM results for various fruits. He divides them into red, yellow and green buckets. I follow a low carb diet and eat the fruits I like and limit the ones that are very high glycemic which I actually don’t like anyway; grapes, dates, watermelon, bananas for example. It serves me fine. I would never tell someone lots of fruit is a good way, but you do you. So if fruit reverses diabetes then how do you feel about gel packs for athletes?
Great Information Salute
I’ve tried to stay on this keto diet 2 years to lower insulin resistance Candida sifo and sibo. It’s not worked making me worse. All the time I’m depressed and tired.
Same here
I dod it for 2 months only but quieted when I started having pains in my liver.. more like soreness.. also didn’t make sense to me how people that have been yrs on keto still having spikes every time they eat carbs… meaning they never fix their insulin resistance. How are you doing now? How it’s your diet?
WOW! THANK YOU SO MUCH! IM INSULIN RESISTANT. I LOVE FRUIT. I NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT. CAN YOU TALK ABOUT WHY BAKING SODA IS BEING PRESCRIBED FOR DIABETICS? WHAT ABOUT APPLE CIDER VINEGAR?
Get yourself a CGM (continuous glucose monitor) that will provide you with glucose readings during two weeks and see for yourself how you respond to several food types.
Best would be a continuous insulin sensor, but those are not on the market (yet).
I totally agree w yo on my own journey re health n conditions
I live in defiance of not supposed t eat fruit
I learned fruits did all the things u said😊
@nickbardan : I agree. Also sticking to a diet regime ie keto/carnivore/plant based etc is completely incompatible with human existence.All the micronutrients ie fats/carbs/protein are available for a reason.
❤loved it !
I have been lchf for 6 months. Im reading your book now and i am ready to switch over to this way of eating. You say thay fruit will spikr my sugar but thst its hood for me to eat. This scsres me as ive worked hard to get my a1c down from 13.9 to 6.5 in 6 months. I just want to know what to expect when i start eating fruits.
@chellesmith5585 4 months later how was your experience on this method ?
what is your opinion on Allulose
So are you saying that carbs are better for me than protein?
Also
Are you saying sugar spikes from any source is ok because that’s the bodies natural response but have some insulin resistance? I was led to believe that spikes are what is bad about food. Say glucose pre dinner is 105, you eat and 1 hour later glucose is now 240. Pancreas is going to produce insulin and then the glucose will drop down significantly and may even drop it below 70. Is that ok?
Just trying to better understand what you are saying from what I have learned. Or should say relearned. Been a nurse for 21 years. So knowledge has changed couple times during that time frame. I grew with food pyramid system which I know killed many of good people.
How to become less insulin resistant before I eat fruits ? Thanks
I think you are right. I cut butter and other fats out and my sugars went down.
Great! I'm trying that now.
Best video ever on fruit and misinformation. Your explanation style is superb!
Thank you!!!
I just ordered your book mastering diabetes! I ordered it from Amazon I get it Tuesday ❤
He doesn't say what to do if your isulin resistant. No point in telling people to eat loads of fruit.
Since some people thrive on animal products and some on plant based- experts should consider blood type as well. For example type A has lesser ability to digest meat and type 0 does..
What is Cyrus's exercise program, and what protein supplements, shakes does he use to gain muscle mass?
Then how did humanity survive in the winter when carbs simply werent available?
I heard you say you might eat 600g carb in a day. The carbs you mention are very dense and it would take a lot of plates of them to get to 600g.
How are stevia and agave more refined than all the other things we eat like honey, maple syrup, mustard, etc…
🤔..very interesting! Pharmacist myself....the people love Ozempic! But on the long term...they need more..or stronger working Ozempic like medicine...experience learns...from patients and friends...
Thanks for sharing 👍
My husband is a pharmacist and my son studies biochemistry… fruits and vegetables and exercise is very healing to the body ..I would never take medicine to lose weight.
This is an excellent episode, Thank you very much! For the past 11 years I’ve been a t2d and have been eating a fruit salad every morning for the same amount of time. If I don’t know what to eat for lunch, I eat an apple. Five years ago I decided to lose some weight so I called my friend who is vegan and got some tips from her, I’ve since lost 23 lbs. it didn’t take the whole 5 yrs but the weight have stayed off since then. I still crave seafood & I will eat some now and again, but i get back on track eating a whole food plant based diet. Here in Hawaii, growing fruits and vegetables is an all year round activity, so there’s always something to eat.
By the way, my blood glucose stays 100 or in the 90s when I check it in the morning, I do take met metformin but I’m slowly whining myself off of it. I get bloodwork done so that I can check my numbers. I need to know where I am as far as my health is concerned. So much to work on.
For years, I dedicated myself to competitive crossfitting, initially embracing the Paleo diet before transitioning to the ketogenic diet as a strategy to address my non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. However, I found myself uncomfortable with the heavy reliance on animal products that the keto diet demands. In search of a healthier lifestyle that aligned more with my values, I eventually switched to a vegan diet over the past year. Reflecting on this transition, I realize that my keto-influenced habits led me to over-rely on coconut milk, oils, and nuts in my vegan diet. This approach seemed logical at the time, given my background in keto, but I now see the need to reassess and balance my dietary choices more carefully.
This might explain why I can never lose weight on the vegan diet.
I recently came across your channel, and maybe I might have to adjust my pallet, but I’m excited to give it a go. What you say makes a lot of sense. And I feel like modern day quack science, lacks a lot of common sense.
I’ll shoot you the results after the first month.
Thanks for sharing! We're excited to hear more about your journey!
What if a person has fatty liver.. too much fruit..aka fructose is processed in the liver. How do you fix fatty liver?
Please talk about sprouted wheat flour's Glycemic Index.
You talk about having 10-20 servings of fruit per day. What does a serving look like?
The sugar in fruit is mostly fructose. Is in it fructose the worst for you in excess?
If you have severe insulin resistance or struggle with fluctuating blood glucose, we recommend earning your ability to eat fruits high on the glycemic index by eating a diet containing as much low glycemic plant material as possible for a few weeks first.
Once you have gained a significant amount of insulin sensitivity, then begin increasing your intake of higher glycemic fruits and your blood glucose is unlikely to spike in the post-meal state.

When is the best time to consume fruit during the day?
Anytime/all day/a part of every meal! 😊
I have watched a lot of videos focusing on 3 different diets - 1) Vegetarian 2) Keto 3) Mediterranean. They will all work for a healthy way of living as long as you do them correctly. The most important thing they have in common is that they all agree is that you should stay away from refined foods and there are a lot of them, it's insanity! I believe anyone who wants to correct their diet and to live a healthy life style should look at all of their options of the 3. Learn about each one and decide for yourself which one would be the best option for you.
what about Fructose overload on liver..
What other whole grains are common available beside barley and steel cut oats?
You can eat rice.
There’s wheat berries ( whole wheat kernels which need long soaking and cooking but are fibre full) chickpeas are awesome. Soak few hours then boil. Add a bit of salt remove and pan fry with onions . Lovely to eat on its own or added to stews and you make hummus out of it by blending with garlic olive oil and salt. Spread hummus on Ezekiel bread ( sprouted grains bread )
There’s all types of coloured rice. Red , black , purple. Eat variety. Don’t just stick to one type of grain. You can make sushi out if cooked coloured rice ( fibre rich with lots of nutrients ) roll it in seaweed. Put cucumbers and carrots as the filling. Add your seasonings that you like.
The variety of whole grain whole foods is endless. Green veg are super. Containing stuff necessary for T2D
My blood sugar is steadily levelling itself as I’m on food whole grain diet. Wish you the best.
I meant to say skeptical!!
I am so confused most of the time and struggle to decide what to eat. I have type 2 diabetes, with deficiency in iron, b.12,thiamine, and D3. I also have neuropathy in my feet and acid reflux. I have bands in my esophagus and fatty liver. I also have anxiety and depression. I am struggling to get much support from my GP and unsure what my diet should be or what will beneficial or harmful to me. I would love to speak to a professional but I just can't afford to.
The Mastering Diabetes way of eating works!! I reduced my A1C from 14.0 to 6.6 in 3 months!! A low fat Whole Foods plant based diet is the best way!!
@@tsabine21 thank you
Listen 5o what was just said. He follows this way of eating and he is type 1 diabetic. Contact him
@@tsabine21 ,How long did it take after cutting out fats, did you see improvement in your bs . ?The only fat I eat is peanut butter and walnuts , but my AIC is going up.
@@barbaradavis1712 I started eating a whole food plant based diet 100% on February 16th. Fruit bowl or tofu scramble for breakfast, salad and beans/rice and veggies for lunch and dinner, pb and banana on toast after dinner and my A1C went from 14.0 to 6.6 by May 16!! I had to reduce my fats-the peanut butter was my main fat for weeks. No oil or butter in my vegetables , even now. So it took me about 6 weeks to notice I didn’t get spikes with potatoes or oatmeal.
Thank you, so much! Excellent!!! So do you have a lecture on how to become less insulin resistant?
Grab our book. www.masteringdiabetes.org/book/
How do I clear my cells of fat? ( Insulin resistant)
By lowering you fat intake and losing weight (exercise and calorie deficit) your body will clear that fat out of your cells for energy
@@mattzilla331 thx! Does that mean limiting fruit while cutting fat calories until cells are cleared and can accept glucose?
@@pamtewes5276 no need to limit fruit
@@pamtewes5276 I would say yes - I think 1 cup of berries a day is something Dr Fuhrman with his nutritarian diet recommends as they are not too sweet and have fibre. His diet is very similar to this one although he also is OK with some animal protein occasionally. I think he did say though the regular maintenance diet needs to be different from the the diet which makes you lose weight. And fruit does make you put on weight if you eat too much. I know overweight people who eat a lot of fruit. THe problem is always the portion size. You have to eat less than you need to lose weight either way. It seems to me diabetics also can eat more if they move around more. Its the body activity versus the food intake. No matter what you eat. A bit like the Bible says to paraphrase. "If a man won't work he shouldn't eat. "
That was a great video! Thank You so much! I have eaten green smoothies with lots of bananas and blueberries for over 25 years. I am 77 years old and very healthy! I always eat fruit before eating anything else! I eat mostly raw fruits and vegetables with the addition of sweet potatoes, beans, and a few oats! Lately I have been seeing videos talking about Keto and not eating fruit so I was really thankful for your video! Oh, yes it is important to keep it very low to no fat! Thank you again! ❤️💕❤️
CSIRO in Australia: No fruit on our diets, ever.
Their reasoning is that too many calories for their low carb diet.
What is the type 2 diabetes risk for eating fish?
After eating fruit, take estimate Insulin one hour later sugar reading still high after 50 units uninterrupted with 325mm reading
Stick with vegetables
I'm T1, on a low carb but not no carb diet. I don't eat much meat. When my BG goes low, I look forward to enjoying some favorite fruits. Eating all meat is so unappealing, unhealthy long term & 🌍 unsustainable.
I am beginning to think Frozen Fruit is part way between Fresh and Juice. Mangos in Michigan Grocery stores suck, rotting on one end and green (turpentine taste on the other). Just ate two bowls of frozen mango and extra trip to bathroom from sugar and insulin spike. If I was skinner and/or exercised before it might not be a problem.
I think the extra fructose creates fat in the liver Cyrus Khambatta. Some doctors say excess calories of any food causes the insulin resistance. Berries, tomatoes, bell peppers, limes, lemons work for me (30 BMI). As a type one Diabetics you'll never suffer the insulin spike that ocassionally sends me to nap time.
This week is a bit worse from half a pie with coconut oil in the crust, and olive oil and rosemary potato chips 3 days ago.
Made my Spanish Rice dish this week by doubling the diced tomatoes, replacing carrots with red bell pepper, and change the spices (not spanish rice any more), keeping the green peas and adding a small amount of apple cider vinegar.
I did do the whole foods plant based 99% of the time (except the last Thanksgiving-Christmas - were I gained weight on sourdough bread, whole rye kernel, dates, instant mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes with brown sugar and marshmellows and salted nuts) in the last 2 1/2 years in combination with intermittent fasting, walking and dumbells. 1st 10 months lost weight following mastering diabetes book without the higher glycemic index/load foods. So far never been able to eat all the recipes, but I did get off Metformin and reduce my A1C from 7.5 to the 5.7 to 6.1 range. Trying to lose weight again and get my A1C down 5.0.
After meals, nap time is so true for me. I just accept it as a way of life.. I can only eat fruit with a piece of ptotein, in that case I rather have a starchy vegetable or some rice instead which won't spike me and sustain me longer..
@@esinfa may be trouble digesting (more blood diverted to intestines), or drop in blue sugar from insulin spike.
So fructose is good for you? Doesn’t it become triglycerides?
THANK JOU VERY MUCH.BECAUCE I LEAVE FUIT.
I eat only fatty meat/fish variety (~1 pound a day) and fruit (~1.5 pound) mainly banana and clementines. No added dietary fat, no supplements. I’m +2000 kcal a day. Never felt better and looked healthier in my life, and I’m 45.
Another dangerous myth is fruit caused cancer
3:15 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
For those who like to eat fruit will love you very much!!😊😊😊
Soooooo basically... Buttermilk pancakes and Aunt Jemima with sausage is out of the question..... I better stick to Kale and Lima beans for the rest of my life...
My #1 concern is that ozempic also directs blood sugar to the kidneys , contributing to other issues with the kidneys
Nothing feeds bad bugs in the bladder and urinary track like glucose.
I was on Jardience ( removes sugar thru kidneys ) it damaged my health. I had shooting pains in legs. You lose electrolytes too. That makes it worse. I checked internet. Lots of side effects. Be warned.
Dr gave me ozembic in tablet form called Rybelsus. It was worse. Nausea , constipation, and diabetic retinopathy for eyes. Worse of all , I only found out after checking internet that it has all these side effects but I had all symptoms and didn’t know what was causing them until I checked internet.
Check side effects of meds first before taking them. Some side effects are worse than having T2D .
At least with T2D you can figure out how to handle it. With meds you are thrown into a dungeon and will be there until you find the key ( meaning you start using common sense )
