I've got one question about Bread. Understood about the mechanism and the whole glucose adsorption. But how can you compare that to thousands of years of Mediterranean people consuming only bread (almost) their whole life to survive and even today healthy people in Italia, france, spain..that religiously consume bread every single day. I cant believe that if you do "every" else right in your diet or life and consume bread you are still "destroying" your body.
By following your nutrition advice, my non verbal teen son with autism and food obsession has lost 100+ pounds and his blood sugar and pulse are greatly reduced. Thank you for all of your hard work!
Agree..following him for a year….no meds, 100% better diet ( flexitarian: wild pacific salmon 3x / week, grass fed humane dairy…2 eggs daily, full fat milk, scant grass fed cheese, cottage cheese, fruits- mostly berries…some organic vegetables, no No processed or fast foods. BP dropped to 115/ 70, weight maintained at 110# ( small 5’ 75 yo Nonnie)

@@themanftheworld8439 if you drink it without any artificial additives. Should be 100% cranberry juice, which in general it is bitter and no sugar in it. It becomes bad when mixed with other juices or sugary water.
Your TH-cam channel is a FREE wealth of knowledge … I love that you are not trying to sell us anything, just honest free education … thank you, thank you, thank you! ❤️🇨🇦
@@patclaus8510 And yet, I've watched him for about 3 years and have never once heard of the product, or had it pushed on me to buy. If it comes from him, I'm sure it's excellent, but at the same time, don't feel like he is shoving it down our throats to buy anything, which I truly appreciate.
Put all in moderation and you will be fine all those foods are all in store to eat to much is not good even white rice said it bad but I don’t think so .thank you for sharing Dr.Ekbergthis health issue
There are 3 brilliant Doctors on TH-cam and I always follow their recommendations and learning every time how to eat healthy and is such a pleasure listening to Dr.Mandell,Dr. Berg,and Dr. Ekberg,they are truly a treasure to humanity on TH-cam
still one of the best food health channels on youtube... I also don't have a problem with some things being repeated over and over again, that actually helps me!
Thank you @l33t00r. Repetition is the mother of skill. I'm glad you realize the value of it. First you get exposed to an idea. Then you start understanding it. Then it starts growing on you and finally you own it. Even then it needs reinforcing, because there are so many distractions.😄
Muy buena explicación doctor,usted es genial, gracias por compartir su conocimiento de los alimentos que nos enferman... saludos desde Comodoro Rivadavia Argentina
@@drekberg repetitions are okay with me because there might be updated information to what you've shared in past videos. I love your channel! Keep up the good work! Thank you so much! ❤
After 25 years of research, I consider myself a bit of functional Electrition expert and after listening to hundreds of different people, I found you to be one of the absolute most knowledgeable and on the cutting edge of everything that is correct
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 2 years ago ago and completely cured myself by cutting out bread.and orange juice, I lost weight and feel so much better.I am 80 years old
My mother is diabetic and I've been telling her for years to stop the meds and eat different foods. I'm a chef and a certified dietary manager so I started her a no carb no sugar diet this past monday....its Thursday and she already feels better, less lethargic and more energy. It's also improved her gut health as she also has diverticulitis. 4 days and a difference already. She's 71.
Hi Dr Ekberg, thanks so much for sharing this video with us. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s over 10 years ago, and about 15 years ago several thyroid nodules were found and one of them is growing into fairly large size. I had a flare about 10 years ago and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism for a short period of time, after a week in the hospital on a drip, I haven’t been on any medications since as my TSH, T3 and T4 levels are still within the normal range, however, my antibodies have been extremely high. I have been suffering with hair loss, dry hair, headaches/migraines after doing sports, tiredness, eczema, depression, and anxiety for years and never even realised it was all related to my Hashimoto’s disease. I discovered your channel a couple of years ago, I am so grateful for all the content you made to educate us how our bodies truly work. I have been sharing your videos to my families and friends although hardly anyone appreciated it and they just kept living an unhealthy lifestyle as they always do which frustrates me so much. I tried keto diet for a while and then it was sort of discontinued as I had a three months holiday in Europe last year so I was eating loads of carbs and sweets during the trip. After the trip, I haven’t been able to commit to a strict diet again until 3 weeks ago. I went to my GP to get blood tests done a while ago and I was told there’s nothing I could do with my high thyroid antibodies, one day my thyroid gland would be completely destroyed and I would have to be on thyroid hormone replacement for the rest of my life. It made me extremely depressed thinking about when that day comes. I knew I had to do something to fight against it. Finally, three weeks ago, I was determined to commit to a strict diet and intermittent fasting. I started doing intermittent fasting for 18-20 hours a day without eating and only eating during a 4-6 hours’ period. I cleaned up my fridge and pantry, threw away all the food I am not supposed to eat. I have eliminated all the wheat products, dairies, soy products, sugar, nightshades vegetables, foods contain lectins, etc etc. off my diet. I also stopped drinking black tea and replaced it with matcha green tea. I have been eating grass fed beef, pasture raised eggs, free range chicken, wild-caught salmon and prawns, leaf greens, sweet potatoes, bone broth, sauerkraut, I use only EVOO and coconut oil for cooking, I drink a smoothie each day with one banana, one avocado, some chia seeds, hemp seeds, flaxseeds, and organic coconut milk. (I only buy coconut milk/cream with 100% coconut meat extract in it) I am extremely proud of myself for keeping this up for almost three weeks now. During these three weeks, I have noticed a lot of positive changes to my body, including less cravings, less hunger, less fatigues, less depression and anxiety, more energy, weight loss, clearer skin etc. my hair loss hasn’t improved but hopefully it would get better soon. I have done a lot of research about Hashimoto’s diet. It’s a bit frustrating as apart from not eating soy, gluten, dairy, goitrogenic fruits and vegetables, legumes, sugar, and processed foods, I have found all different information regarding which nuts to avoid, which vegetables are good or bad for Hashimoto’s, which made me very confused and not sure whether if I should avoid some of the foods in my current diet or continue eating, such as eggs, almond milk, oat milk, sauerkraut, ginger pickled in apple cider vinegar, bananas, pears, cruciferous vegetables, onions, garlic, hemp seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, cocoa powder, buckwheat, matcha green tea etc. I was wondering if you could make a video about the proper diet for Hashimoto’s disease with details of which nuts, vegetables, fruits, plant milk, seeds or even meat should be avoided, and also which foods are beneficial to people with Hashimoto’s disease. It would be extremely appreciated as your channel is the only reliable source regarding health advice for me or even for all your followers. ❤🙏
I just got diagnosed with diabetes 😢. Completely my own fault, I used to have lots of everything on that list and lots of ice cream on top. Since being diagnosed, I have completely changed my lifestyle. Both food and drink consumption, also exercise. Not too much exercise to raise cortisol levels but nice walks after meals, and some hiit too. Looking forward to the difference it makes when I have my next hba1c test in January. Just wish I'd found Dr Eckburg 20 years ago! Brilliant. Thanks Dr 😁
Hey hlwhat foods do you have for breakfast beside eggs ? Can you do slow weighted workouts? Love to know more on cortisol and l have high insulin resistant.. is kidney beans ok tho thought they were antinutrient
The typical breakfast made me laugh. I was in a hospital and was served a breakfast of orange juice, a banana, sweetened fruit yogurt, pancakes with 2 packets of syrup and coffee with 2 packets of sugar. I calculated the sugar content to be over 103 grams. When I told the hospital dietician about it, she didn't believe me until I showed her the calculations. She asked what I would like the next day and I told her high protein/low carbohydrate. I did get eggs, but also toast with jam, orange juice, a banana, yogurt, and coffee with sugar. I ate the eggs.
Similar. I asked for the Diabetes Diet Menu. The hospital must have been using the “pie plate” meal model, as they had blueberry muffins as an option. Hospitals use buillion cubes as a “soup,” but they are salt bomb chemicals.
Yes my mom unfortunately has been in the hospital for the last 3 months so the hospital is my second home right now. The food in the machines and the cafeteria is shocking. Even the foods the nurses eat really surprises me.
@@lynnback2194 I am so sorry you and your mom are going through such difficult times. … i think i used bone broth powder, hard-boiled eggs, raw nuts, green and herbal teas to help.
Worrying, not many people have the funds or not even sold in the stores by them. Nothing but advised eating fish, blueberries, veg and now to find out they are maybe even more harmful. The last year I have therefore been eating mercury and pesticides taking advice on using foods to cure illnesses. The answer is not to eat or don't worry about anything you eat and take medicines to dampen the symptoms and try and enjoy life. At the end of the day we all die anyway.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg! All MDs should learn this in medical school and teach their patients. This should be the first go to instead of a pill; cure the root cause.
I am diabetic, when first diagnosed I was offered by my GP to put me on Netformin, as I had read that I could reverse the diagnosis by changing ing my diet I told him I would try that first. I loathe white bread and rarely eat it, fruit juice ie bought in supermarkets, I never buy it. I do eat fruit, should be berry fruit but sometimes I also eat other fruits. Sugary cereal never buy it, prefer oatmeal porridge. Fast food only fish and very few chips. Alcohol I rarely drink a small amount as it upsets my stomach, art. Sweeteners never, deep fried food fish and chips only, margarine never after reading what it is made of, only butter now. Energy drinks and soda, never buy them. I did feel very much different by watching my diet and got into the “ normal” range for blood sugars, but my downfall is chocolate and sweets, I’m trying very hard to avoid the confectionary and cakes and biscuits aisles when in the supermarket but it’s not easy.
Hello Jane, I managed to be able to walk past the bread and cake isles after 90 days by cutting out all sugar, all sweet tastes, and grain carbs, but I had to read alot of food labels on the way. I worked at it, one food stuff at a time, and was surprised that I did not feel that "pull" to buy, while walking through the cake and sweet isles. I wish you success on your goals.
I've had saccharine since I was about 12 and now I have changed to Aspartame. I'm in my 70's and I'm fine. I don't eat any fried foods but I do wear clothes or I might frighten people, especially young people 😀
After I reduce my bread consumption and starch I reduce some weight , and got a better digestion. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes but no need to use medication anymore.
This Doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about HEALTH. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely 👍👍👍
Funny how bad foods (Which are processed!) are cheaper and good foods are more expensive, turn that around and the majority of people will turn their health around they just can't afford it, it's about survival at present!?!
The 2 very best things for your health. Eggs(Pasture Raised, dark yokes) and grass fed red meat. I recently went on Keto, not to lose weight, because I already weigh 175 for 6ft2 But just the feeling you get after eliminating sugar and about 95% of carbs, its absolutely amazing after the first week... The brain fog is gone, and full energy all day. I no longer eat any bread either. But once every 2 weeks, I cheat one time, and either eat my favorite pizza or Rao's pasta with organic red pepper spaghetti sauce. Everyone should try Keto for 1 week, and watch how incredible you feel after getting thru the first few days.
I’ve been on Keto for 7 months and lost 30 pounds and noticed an improvement in my digestive system. My main objective was to reduce inflammation caused by RA. Unfortunately that hasn’t happened and I didn’t get any of the other benefits most people get when on Keto.
@@myrtlemaude47 that’s ok. Just reduce slowly over time. Switch to whole grains that take longer to process AND to chew! Once in a while have the sweet treat or pasta or delicious French bread and enjoy! We all know those super healthy eaters and exercisers who have all sorts of illnesses and others who smoke into their 90’s. I have become a believer in 80% clean and 20% splurge. This has kept my weight stable and blood results in normal range.
I'm a zookeeper and whenever we feed our omnivores, the protein portion of their diet is always the food they eat first. They also tend to leave the fruit portion behind. We can learn a lot from animals. The traditional American breakfast has always made me feel poorly. Bring on the eggs!
My Grandparent's breakfast was egg and bacon and wintertime whole rolled cooked oats. It wasn't given till 11a.m. we had to do our chores first. Us girls had the house to go through, washing laundry and then feed water the chickens and collect their eggs and wash them. The boys feed the pigs and washed down the cows for milking, their day started at 4a.m. After breakfast we worked the kitchen garden. It was a healthier lifestyle. The USA changed all the recommendations for diet in the 60s recommended a more sugar lean diet that my Mom took to heart and basically destroyed our diet.
Good information. About the only thing left on my "top 10" list is the seed oils. But I use butter, lard or bacon fat whenever possible. The "keto" lifestyle eliminates and replaces most of the "top 10" foods. Thanks for the video.
Dr. Ekberg, thank you in every way. Since we had a session one on one with you, our health has greatly improved. Can you please make a video about menopause, hormone therapy, and how one can maintain sufficient natural hormones without using HRT.
YES 🙌 I just learned that dropping hormone chemicals can definitely cause nausea and essentially change all kinds of things in our gut health!! I would love a video on this topic! SO NEEDED!!
I watched a mother the other day at a convenience store blocking the door to soda pops from her son. She was telling him he couldn’t have a coke because it had to much sugar and wasn’t healthy. She told him that he was allowed to have Gatorade. People have know clue what they are drinking and eating. Thank you for your videos!
Exactly! Same thing with so called “diet” sodas, which have a sugar replacement that has a higher Glycemic index -Maltodextrin. All drinks on store shelves r bad. Best to juice on your own.
Great program Dr Ekberg. I've been trying to do pretty much what you have said the past 3 months when I found that my sugar was high. I have lost about 16 lb and now have my sugar at around 100. Sometimes a little lower sometimes a little higher. Your teaching will help me to stay on track. I'm assuming you're probably from Sweden. My grandfather's last name was soderberg and he came over in the early 1900s from Sweden. He actually was supposed to come over on the Titanic but got held back because of a baby dedication for his cousin. They ended up going about 2 weeks later after that happened to the Titanic. Thank you for all your teachings. May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord's face shine upon you
I am a new watcher (and a fellow Swede), and I must say this is one of the best health channels and coaching I've seen. I've been gradually changing my diet going from five meals per day with tons of carbs to doing 2MAD for the past two years, and I'm never looking back. I thought I was living healthy, but turns out I wasn't at all! Still working on improving my diet, but I'm getting there. Bread is the hardest for me to shake, but I'm eating the heavy loaves with sourdough and rye, no additives. Same with fruit. I have a weakness for raisins, dates and other dried fruit, but now I know that's sugar too and needs to be dropped. Anyway, if I could make one request it would be for a video going over the E-additives. There are so many of them, and they are in everything. A list of which are the worst and if some might even be OK would be very helpful! Thank you, Dr. Ekberg and please keep making these videos!
(1) As a recommendation look into:: Ezekiel Bread made with “no” flour but rather from sprouted wheat instead. I use this brand:: Silver Hills Bakery made from “organic” sprouted wheat. I store it in the freezer frozen and then thaw it out very lightly in the toaster. (2) Also, did you know that you should always freeze your Bread or at least keep it cool in the refrigerator. Because, REFRIGERATION for about 12 hours or more AFTER cooking or baking CREATES “Resistant Starches” in high carbohydrate starchy food like Bread, Pasta, Rice, and Potatoes. “Resistant Starches” are not broken down into glucose in the stomach so they have a lower calorie content, because glucose is stored as FAT in the body including the Liver. “Resistant Starches” instead pass through to the large intestine, where they act more like a dietary fibre and can provide all kinds of useful gut benefits. Then reheat this food and eat it. That is why Rice should be refrigerated for at least 12 hours after cooking it to build “Resistant Starches”, then reheat it in the microwave.
@@martinsvensson6884 → When that subject comes up, such as those on line CGMs, it seems that people just WANT it to be better. My wife and I test our blood sugar most days. We normally freeze bread since we don't eat it often but we do eat a slice when it's fresh from the store. We have both tried to find that difference and simply can't. My wife has normal insulin test response, I'm type2.
@royjohnson465 you had me till you said reheat in the microwave. Microwaves destroy your food, there is no nutrition left, there is plenty of research available on the internet to confirm this. You are irradiating your food. Avoid at all costs.
Thank you for the education you provide for those of us who want to not only eat healthy foods, but also to know why we should. So many “ health channels “ do not elaborate on the science behind the dangers of processed foods, and/ or the benefits of whole foods. The work you put into your presentations is appreciated.
I totally agree with your opening statement- Why would anyone eat something that would ruin their health. This is why I won't eat plants anymore. I'm a carnivore and I'm living the best life ever since figuring this out. I haven't been sick in 10 years and naturally lost All of my body fat without trying. I'm a lean, Lion Looking Guy in his 60's. Never going back!
Dr Sten is talking straight to me! I have been listening to so many TH-cam vids. I am so confused! I already eat very little bread, pasta etc. But got to get off the sugar!
i started OMAD and KETO more then a year ago after watching your video, Doctor. Feel great, loosing weight , blood work is amazing. My family doctor is confused:). I am 67 , type 2 diabetic. Thank you Dr. Ekberg!!!!!!!!
I have nafld because I ate sugar and sweets too much of my life. I’m 5’1& 131#. No alcohol! Now I have issues with my stomach even though I’ve backed way off sugary foods! I’m 82 and no meds so I’m blessed.. but I do have pain and belching and gas occasionally. Any ideas what causes that and what I need to do? Thanks sooo much . Blessings
@@thegreypath1777i can imagine your doctor loves you hehehe. They love all the things that challenge traditional mainstream medicine. Kudos. Everyone should discuss this with their docs
I work in a grocery store . Hyper inflation and the cost of white bread tripled. I'm wondering would people eat better if food didn't cost more than a house payment ? And that is white bread . The cost of eating healthy means they would have to live out of their car and fix it from the dash board. There was a kid that use to buy a cart full of healthy foods . He can now afford 1/4 of that cart . He said...I still eat healthy, I just have to not eat for three days due to high cost. Rich get richer and poor eat white bread.
You can take over inflation due to Joe Biden hundred dollars of groceries for years ago is now over 300 I just cut back my eating a little bit and I tried to concentrate on my main food items to be organic and non-GMO
Just happened to come across this channel and I love it and have shared with some relatives including sons. I’m considered a health nut but I’m so enlightened by Dr Sten!! I too, take a ton of notes and have subscribed. I’m in the medical field and totally impressed by the simplicity of his presentations; anyone can understand the message. Let us all understand that medicine is a business. You have to take care of yourself! Thank you for these great presentations.
Thank you Dr Sten. I am so grateful for your willingness to share your knowledge, and for free too! 🙏🏽 thankful to have discovered you at 34 and not 94
I feel healthier now at 72 than I did in my mid 60s. I started listening to my care givers and changing my eating habits. The biggest misnomer to me is how nutritionist know you're going to cheat, so they give you allowances in foods you should not eat at all.
Thank you @jaymichael91 for sharing your great results and helping inspire others. That is so awesome. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
@@brucemckay6615: Nonsense. Eating 95% healthy food is MUCH better than eating below 25% re lots of things like metabolism, sugar, sodium, fats, cancer risks, and on and on. The nutritionists allowing for human nature is likely much better than just having patients lie and do random things when they cheat.
As a woman in my mid sixties with a couple of medical issues I do my absolute best to to eat as healthy as possible and your videos are invaluable to me.Thank you for explaining everything so well,I really appreciate you!
This one 40 minute video would greatly alter big pharma if we all absorbed the information and followed through with it daily. Thanks Dr. for your level of information and details
Thank you @dna7500. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain the principles and mechanisms of health in such a way that you start gaining an understanding and respect for the miracle that is the human body. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and start owning the mechanisms we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
A doctor, in addition to knowledge, must also be understandable to his patients. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Ekberg, for his precious videos. Ciao from Italy
I think this is the best nutrition channel. I understand everything better, bc he gets into scientific details and I remember that for whatever reason. So, no matter how tempting a lot of foods are, I indulge so rarely bc of knowing what it's doing.
It's a big challenge for me bcos i live in country that so call reach of foods varieties. I've been on diet for 4 yrs and since then i admitted it's has been countless i felt into those unhealthy food. Wish i can totally out from those unhealthy food..but i managed to lose 35kgs..now i'm on ideal weight..thanks Dr.Sten for priceless info
I also would like to thank you for this great explanation of bad things we put in our mouth. I like the speed of talking, one can get all the material.
Teaching children how to eat a nutritious diet is a PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY. Parents need to stop being lazy and pushing their responsibilities onto teachers and schools. We already have more than enough to do! And how about teaching your children proper, kind, and polite behavior, too? Most people these days raise their kids like pets. They feed and clothe them, sit them in front of a screen, and think they’ve done their job. Sad.
Dr. Eckberg, thank you for being the one who put me on my Keto journey, and being so instrumental in me turning my health around nearly three years ago.
I love your channel and the way you break things down for us Dr. Ekberg! I am encouraged that I am on the right track and know how to eat! I am 42 and don’t have any health problems or take medications. Thank you for sharing this information and keeping it in the light!
I think it’s when and why you drink alcohol or wine. Wine has been drunken in France for years to accompany the meal and may be occasionally drunk in the evening. I think Dr. Ekburg stresses that too. I think it’s when you drink to suppress your worries or depression you begin on the spiral down maybe. An holistic doctor once told me you can nearly always tell a person suffering stress by looking at their face and hands. He said if stress causes these signs on the outside what do you think is happening on the inside?
Bravo merci je comprends mieux maintenant, j'adore le pain et c'est addictif, j'écoute également vos autres vidéos. Je vais changer ma façon de me nourrir 😊
I love your videos. I find it so knowledgeable and interesting. I have always struggled with my weight and sugar addiction. Now I am older I want to eat a clean diet. I know people who live at McDonald's and are a bad influence. I know somewhat what is healthy. I don't smoke or drink alcohol. You are a great example of looking fit. I really want to learn as much as I can watching your videos. Thank you, Dr. Ekberg.

A friend of mine is an alcoholic. I've been warning him for more than a decade about what is coming his way health wise. He drinks 16 bottles of cheap wine every week. He's now in hospital being tested for bowel cancer after he went in to have his piles taken care of, as if that wasn't bad enough. If he doesn't stop he will 100% die from his drinking, no question.
@@adammckay2647 52. I've already lost two friends to alcohol in recent years. It seems to be an epidemic atm. I live in a small street of 20 odd houses and I know of at least 4 alcoholics living here.
@user-sc3ts6lf8r No it's not. Millions of people do it in moderation without any risk whatsoever. Quality red wine has health benefits. Abuse of alcohol is a problem like the abuse of anything else.
Hi Dr Sten, I have started following you, and most of what you say makes sense. I am planning on doing the Whole 30 diet for the third time in January, so I know what it’s like to give up sugar-it's not easy. The main issue for me is that I travel for work, so I’m forced to eat at restaurants, which is almost impossible to do healthily. Do you have any advice for this? I have a load of questions for you but for now, I’ll leave it here.
Thank you so much for this video and all your other ones. I have learned so much from you. I’m spreading the word but most don’t want to listen unfortunately.
Redefining 'food' is critical on a personal level as well as societal. In this video you describe it as 'real food' vs 'fast food'. I distinguish them by calling them food and "food".
Nutrition in the form of food is most beneficial to your health. In’23 my ex’ was in NHS hospital in Staffordshire. I was shocked that for weeks, they gave him tomato soup, (HIGHLY INFLAMMATORY/HIGH in SUGAR) and juice,(WITH SWEETENERS!) hardly anything else at all as he wasn’t allowed a main meal in months. Strange, they were giving it to start with (mushy meat, potato, & some veg). They wouldnt let us try stuff, but did @ the start & son juiced greens which he drank & improved, could move his arm a bit and hand. Then as they weren’t giving him any protein or vitamins, they were making the inflammation a lot worse, he went down hill, and deteriorated. We didnt get to take him home as expected. I told someone he’s not getting ANYTHING his body needs to live. I told him you need protein and vitamins, even a bit of starch and youre not getting any. Your body cant live without it! Absolutely disgusting food in our hospitals anyway even if you CAN HAVE meals. I hardly ate anything in 8 days when i was in. They said youve got to eat. I said get me something healthy and I will. I tried stuff but didnt eat the rubbish. How on earth are you supposed to get well. Or, perhaps thats it.
Boy did I score! The hospital i was in had insane food! I didn't want to leave! I ordered off a menu. All fresh... veg... u name it! But healthy! Ashland, Oregon Kudos!!!
It was probably easy to digest though. IV's can sustain you. I lived on just that for months once. It takes a lot of energy to digest whole foods. Not saying the food was great- it wasn't but just pointing this out. They want no issues- they deal with this every day. They probably know real food makes people gassy and vomit. Nutrition can come when you get home.
@@MOAB-UTlow carbo, high fiber-> hard to digest-> lowering glicemic index, hypertention, etc. And 1 thing, the body can do autofagy as there are e small amount of food or in intermittent fasting
Needs to add 2 important things to bread: 1) Eat sourdough bread only and in small portions, as sourdough breaks indigestible proteins (ie gluten). Plus sourdough bread has a much lower glycemic index. 2) Whole grain bread is full of lectins, which damage your intestines. So don't eat it at all.
Dr E… how is it possible that rice and grains are bad foods. The Japanese have been eating white rice for hundreds of years and are some of the healthiest people on the planet.
because they COMBINE those foods with HEALTHY, WHOLESOME foods like vegetables, fiber, and protein, and they are PHYSICALLY MORE ACTIVE. You have to look at the WHOLE PICTURE, and NOT ISOLATE individual food items. 70 % of the American diet consists of SIMPLE CARBS, PROCESSED FOODS, and SUGAR.
Also usually our rice is fortified which makes it bad. If humans and machines chemically change how the food came to form naturally than it's not good.
@@جنجالیpart of real learning is questioning, for clarification. If you don’t ask questions or express that some things don’t make sense to you and you ask for further explanations, then you have a weak mind, you have no critical thinking skills. Perfect candidate for brainwashing.
There's no words to accurately describe my gratefulness and appreciation for your priceless information and explanation on the reels you post. I've shared them with dear friends and family in hopes they will feel as good as I do now. Sadly, I fear that I'm fighting a losing battle and I'm accepting the fact that I can only change me. Thank you from the bottom of my healthy heart!!❤
Dr.Eckberg, My the Lord Reward you with lots of Blessings and Good Health for ALL THE WELLNESS YOU PROVIDE TO OTHERS WITH YOUR TEACHING! I have to say that I have not experienced any other video regarding health in such a perfect documentation!
My hand my wife have gone on a healthy eating diet because both us had medical scares a few years ago we have lost a lot of weight and feel a lot better. I think when you’re are younger you don’t notice that some food is not now doing you health good
Thank you @eddiejones.redvees. That is so true. Most people don't care much about health until they've had a scare or a diagnosis. The average audience on TH-cam is 13 y/o. Mine is about 60. 😄
I had my VA doctor tell me one time that he would rather take a pill and eat what he wants then to change his diet for the good he was overweight as well
Went to the hospital for a CAC scan. I was amazed at all the overweight doctors and other health care works that were overweight and just looked unhealthy. Even the security guards had lots of extra weight on them.
Was in a local supermarket, and a grossly overweight woman was riding a motorized shopping cart. In the cart were several twelve packs of a well-known cola and multiple 2-liters of the store brand diet sodas. Filled to the top and nothing else in the cart, she rolled to the checkout. Soda is more addictive than alcohol. The sugar effect is more obvious and immediate.
I am concern about the lipid profile of a 14 year old HDL37; LDL114; total cholesterol 102 AIC 5.8 and non HDL CHOLESTEROL 134 He started exercising in the gym 3x/week. We appreciate your advice. Thank you
Straight forward and clearly explained. Thank you Dr. Ekberg. I love the how watching your videos reinforces good decision making.. I woke up to this new one.. great way to start the day 😊
Thank you Dr. Ekberg, could you please cover the following subject: What happens to Dairy products after heating them up for pizza, cooking with butter or drinking a hot chocolate?
Thank you @djmalou. Unless you use raw dairy, it has already been heated, so - not much happens after that. If you can get raw dairy though, it has enzymes and bacteria that helps you digest it. 😄
@@drekberg Thank you for your answer! Strange, it seems I can't digest cooked butter at all, the uncooked I can though. Croissants, puff pastry, butter sauces... no! I was also expecting to have some toxins to form when cheese is grilled...
@@drekberg If I cut back on milk I start having bad cramps in my legs at night. If I eat eggs and bacon for breakfast I get constipated. If I eat organic rasin bran cereal with 1/2 of a banana and blue berries everyday I am fine.
In Canada we don't have high fructose corn syrup in our food much. People in the US are dealing with one of the worst sweeteners imaginable, a sweetener that's high in fructose and it's in everything, and it's produced with glyphosate resistant corn. Even baby food has HFCS. It's pretty alarming. a lot of countries actually discourage the use of HFCS. It started being a common sweetener in the US when various policies made HFCS a cheaper option than white sugar.

Hi sir how do you do?
Dr Ekberg, excellent content but too many Ads running.
I've got one question about Bread. Understood about the mechanism and the whole glucose adsorption. But how can you compare that to thousands of years of Mediterranean people consuming only bread (almost) their whole life to survive and even today healthy people in Italia, france, spain..that religiously consume bread every single day. I cant believe that if you do "every" else right in your diet or life and consume bread you are still "destroying" your body.
Good information 👍🏾 👍🏾
specially if you eat organic wheat (not from the US)

My mother is diabetic and I've been telling her for years to stop the meds and eat different foods. I'm a chef and a certified dietary manager so I started her a no carb no sugar diet this past monday....its Thursday and she already feels better, less lethargic and more energy. It's also improved her gut health as she also has diverticulitis. 4 days and a difference already. She's 71.
I worked out for years and was physically fit. Now I know what I didnt know. My diet sucked. Thanks for teaching an old dog a new trick.
Hi Dr Ekberg, thanks so much for sharing this video with us. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s over 10 years ago, and about 15 years ago several thyroid nodules were found and one of them is growing into fairly large size. I had a flare about 10 years ago and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism for a short period of time, after a week in the hospital on a drip, I haven’t been on any medications since as my TSH, T3 and T4 levels are still within the normal range, however, my antibodies have been extremely high.
I have been suffering with hair loss, dry hair, headaches/migraines after doing sports, tiredness, eczema, depression, and anxiety for years and never even realised it was all related to my Hashimoto’s disease.
I discovered your channel a couple of years ago, I am so grateful for all the content you made to educate us how our bodies truly work. I have been sharing your videos to my families and friends although hardly anyone appreciated it and they just kept living an unhealthy lifestyle as they always do which frustrates me so much.
I tried keto diet for a while and then it was sort of discontinued as I had a three months holiday in Europe last year so I was eating loads of carbs and sweets during the trip. After the trip, I haven’t been able to commit to a strict diet again until 3 weeks ago.
I went to my GP to get blood tests done a while ago and I was told there’s nothing I could do with my high thyroid antibodies, one day my thyroid gland would be completely destroyed and I would have to be on thyroid hormone replacement for the rest of my life. It made me extremely depressed thinking about when that day comes. I knew I had to do something to fight against it.
Finally, three weeks ago, I was determined to commit to a strict diet and intermittent fasting. I started doing intermittent fasting for 18-20 hours a day without eating and only eating during a 4-6 hours’ period. I cleaned up my fridge and pantry, threw away all the food I am not supposed to eat. I have eliminated all the wheat products, dairies, soy products, sugar, nightshades vegetables, foods contain lectins, etc etc. off my diet. I also stopped drinking black tea and replaced it with matcha green tea.
I have been eating grass fed beef, pasture raised eggs, free range chicken, wild-caught salmon and prawns, leaf greens, sweet potatoes, bone broth, sauerkraut, I use only EVOO and coconut oil for cooking, I drink a smoothie each day with one banana, one avocado, some chia seeds, hemp seeds, flaxseeds, and organic coconut milk. (I only buy coconut milk/cream with 100% coconut meat extract in it)
I am extremely proud of myself for keeping this up for almost three weeks now. During these three weeks, I have noticed a lot of positive changes to my body, including less cravings, less hunger, less fatigues, less depression and anxiety, more energy, weight loss, clearer skin etc. my hair loss hasn’t improved but hopefully it would get better soon.
I have done a lot of research about Hashimoto’s diet. It’s a bit frustrating as apart from not eating soy, gluten, dairy, goitrogenic fruits and vegetables, legumes, sugar, and processed foods,
I have found all different information regarding which nuts to avoid, which vegetables are good or bad for Hashimoto’s, which made me very confused and not sure whether if I should avoid some of the foods in my current diet or continue eating, such as eggs, almond milk, oat milk, sauerkraut, ginger pickled in apple cider vinegar, bananas, pears, cruciferous vegetables, onions, garlic, hemp seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, cocoa powder, buckwheat, matcha green tea etc.
I was wondering if you could make a video about the proper diet for Hashimoto’s disease with details of which nuts, vegetables, fruits, plant milk, seeds or even meat should be avoided, and also which foods are beneficial to people with Hashimoto’s disease.
It would be extremely appreciated as your channel is the only reliable source regarding health advice for me or even for all your followers. ❤🙏

I just got diagnosed with diabetes 😢. Completely my own fault, I used to have lots of everything on that list and lots of ice cream on top. Since being diagnosed, I have completely changed my lifestyle. Both food and drink consumption, also exercise. Not too much exercise to raise cortisol levels but nice walks after meals, and some hiit too. Looking forward to the difference it makes when I have my next hba1c test in January. Just wish I'd found Dr Eckburg 20 years ago! Brilliant. Thanks Dr 😁
Hey hlwhat foods do you have for breakfast beside eggs ? Can you do slow weighted workouts? Love to know more on cortisol and l have high insulin resistant.. is kidney beans ok tho thought they were antinutrient
The typical breakfast made me laugh. I was in a hospital and was served a breakfast of orange juice, a banana, sweetened fruit yogurt, pancakes with 2 packets of syrup and coffee with 2 packets of sugar. I calculated the sugar content to be over 103 grams. When I told the hospital dietician about it, she didn't believe me until I showed her the calculations. She asked what I would like the next day and I told her high protein/low carbohydrate. I did get eggs, but also toast with jam, orange juice, a banana, yogurt, and coffee with sugar. I ate the eggs.
Well stated! I have experienced the same situation myself 😏 Thanks for sharing and Blessings to you!
Similar. I asked for the Diabetes Diet Menu.
The hospital must have been using the “pie plate” meal model, as they had blueberry muffins as an option.
Hospitals use buillion cubes as a “soup,” but they are salt bomb chemicals.
Yes my mom unfortunately has been in the hospital for the last 3 months so the hospital is my second home right now. The food in the machines and the cafeteria is shocking. Even the foods the nurses eat really surprises me.
@@lynnback2194 I am so sorry you and your mom are going through such difficult times. … i think i used bone broth powder, hard-boiled eggs, raw nuts, green and herbal teas to help.
I spent a few weeks in the hospital last year. The patient menu was really high on muffins,pudding,granola bars and fruit juice etc.
The fact that we get free medical videos on TH-cam by Doctor Ekberg is truly a gift. 👍👍👍
A gift.
Agreed!
Worrying, not many people have the funds or not even sold in the stores by them. Nothing but advised eating fish, blueberries, veg and now to find out they are maybe even more harmful. The last year I have therefore been eating mercury and pesticides taking advice on using foods to cure illnesses. The answer is not to eat or don't worry about anything you eat and take medicines to dampen the symptoms and try and enjoy life. At the end of the day we all die anyway.
Бред фанатика получаем !
Because of him I will live until I'm 120
Thank you Dr. Ekberg! All MDs should learn this in medical school and teach their patients. This should be the first go to instead of a pill; cure the root cause.
I am diabetic, when first diagnosed I was offered by my GP to put me on Netformin, as I had read that I could reverse the diagnosis by changing ing my diet I told him I would try that first. I loathe white bread and rarely eat it, fruit juice ie bought in supermarkets, I never buy it. I do eat fruit, should be berry fruit but sometimes I also eat other fruits. Sugary cereal never buy it, prefer oatmeal porridge. Fast food only fish and very few chips. Alcohol I rarely drink a small amount as it upsets my stomach, art. Sweeteners never, deep fried food fish and chips only, margarine never after reading what it is made of, only butter now. Energy drinks and soda, never buy them. I did feel very much different by watching my diet and got into the “ normal” range for blood sugars, but my downfall is chocolate and sweets, I’m trying very hard to avoid the confectionary and cakes and biscuits aisles when in the supermarket but it’s not easy.
Hello Jane, I managed to be able to walk past the bread and cake isles after 90 days by cutting out all sugar, all sweet tastes, and grain carbs, but I had to read alot of food labels on the way. I worked at it, one food stuff at a time, and was surprised that I did not feel that "pull" to buy, while walking through the cake and sweet isles.
I wish you success on your goals.

The 2 very best things for your health. Eggs(Pasture Raised, dark yokes) and grass fed red meat. I recently went on Keto, not to lose weight, because I already weigh 175 for 6ft2 But just the feeling you get after eliminating sugar and about 95% of carbs, its absolutely amazing after the first week... The brain fog is gone, and full energy all day. I no longer eat any bread either. But once every 2 weeks, I cheat one time, and either eat my favorite pizza or Rao's pasta with organic red pepper spaghetti sauce. Everyone should try Keto for 1 week, and watch how incredible you feel after getting thru the first few days.
fog= too much carb
I’ve been on Keto for 7 months and lost 30 pounds and noticed an improvement in my digestive system. My main objective was to reduce inflammation caused by RA. Unfortunately that hasn’t happened and I didn’t get any of the other benefits most people get when on Keto.
@@myrtlemaude47unfortunately keto is not sustainable for the long term. A friend list 50 lbs and eventually gained back 75.
@@reginag7911 I agree. No carbs is very hard for me.
@@myrtlemaude47 that’s ok. Just reduce slowly over time. Switch to whole grains that take longer to process AND to chew! Once in a while have the sweet treat or pasta or delicious French bread and enjoy! We all know those super healthy eaters and exercisers who have all sorts of illnesses and others who smoke into their 90’s. I have become a believer in 80% clean and 20% splurge. This has kept my weight stable and blood results in normal range.

I'm a zookeeper and whenever we feed our omnivores, the protein portion of their diet is always the food they eat first. They also tend to leave the fruit portion behind. We can learn a lot from animals. The traditional American breakfast has always made me feel poorly. Bring on the eggs!
Meaning fruits are not healthy? Or that animals love protein more than fruits? Could you explain the point?

My Grandparent's breakfast was egg and bacon and wintertime whole rolled cooked oats. It wasn't given till 11a.m. we had to do our chores first. Us girls had the house to go through, washing laundry and then feed water the chickens and collect their eggs and wash them. The boys feed the pigs and washed down the cows for milking, their day started at 4a.m. After breakfast we worked the kitchen garden. It was a healthier lifestyle. The USA changed all the recommendations for diet in the 60s recommended a more sugar lean diet that my Mom took to heart and basically destroyed our diet.
Classic American breakfast is eggs and bacon.
Good information.
About the only thing left on my "top 10" list is the seed oils. But I use butter, lard or bacon fat whenever possible.
The "keto" lifestyle eliminates and replaces most of the "top 10" foods.
Thanks for the video.

Great program Dr Ekberg. I've been trying to do pretty much what you have said the past 3 months when I found that my sugar was high. I have lost about 16 lb and now have my sugar at around 100. Sometimes a little lower sometimes a little higher. Your teaching will help me to stay on track. I'm assuming you're probably from Sweden. My grandfather's last name was soderberg and he came over in the early 1900s from Sweden. He actually was supposed to come over on the Titanic but got held back because of a baby dedication for his cousin. They ended up going about 2 weeks later after that happened to the Titanic. Thank you for all your teachings. May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord's face shine upon you

Interesting story
I am a new watcher (and a fellow Swede), and I must say this is one of the best health channels and coaching I've seen. I've been gradually changing my diet going from five meals per day with tons of carbs to doing 2MAD for the past two years, and I'm never looking back. I thought I was living healthy, but turns out I wasn't at all! Still working on improving my diet, but I'm getting there. Bread is the hardest for me to shake, but I'm eating the heavy loaves with sourdough and rye, no additives. Same with fruit. I have a weakness for raisins, dates and other dried fruit, but now I know that's sugar too and needs to be dropped.
Anyway, if I could make one request it would be for a video going over the E-additives. There are so many of them, and they are in everything. A list of which are the worst and if some might even be OK would be very helpful! Thank you, Dr. Ekberg and please keep making these videos!
(1) As a recommendation look into:: Ezekiel Bread made with “no” flour but rather from sprouted wheat instead. I use this brand:: Silver Hills Bakery made from “organic” sprouted wheat. I store it in the freezer frozen and then thaw it out very lightly in the toaster.
(2) Also, did you know that you should always freeze your Bread or at least keep it cool in the refrigerator. Because, REFRIGERATION for about 12 hours or more AFTER cooking or baking CREATES “Resistant Starches” in high carbohydrate starchy food like Bread, Pasta, Rice, and Potatoes. “Resistant Starches” are not broken down into glucose in the stomach so they have a lower calorie content, because glucose is stored as FAT in the body including the Liver. “Resistant Starches” instead pass through to the large intestine, where they act more like a dietary fibre and can provide all kinds of useful gut benefits. Then reheat this food and eat it. That is why Rice should be refrigerated for at least 12 hours after cooking it to build “Resistant Starches”, then reheat it in the microwave.
@@royjohnson465 → I believe that "resistant" starch is a myth. Freezing in no way changes the sugar of the starches.
@@wilhelmtaylor9863 Its not a myth. Only question is how big of a diff it makes..
@@martinsvensson6884 → When that subject comes up, such as those on line CGMs, it seems that people just WANT it to be better. My wife and I test our blood sugar most days. We normally freeze bread since we don't eat it often but we do eat a slice when it's fresh from the store. We have both tried to find that difference and simply can't. My wife has normal insulin test response, I'm type2.
@royjohnson465 you had me till you said reheat in the microwave. Microwaves destroy your food, there is no nutrition left, there is plenty of research available on the internet to confirm this. You are irradiating your food. Avoid at all costs.
Thank you for the education you provide for those of us who want to not only eat healthy foods, but also to know why we should. So many “ health channels “ do not elaborate on the science behind the dangers of processed foods, and/ or the benefits of whole foods. The work you put into your presentations is appreciated.
I totally agree with your opening statement- Why would anyone eat something that would ruin their health. This is why I won't eat plants anymore. I'm a carnivore and I'm living the best life ever since figuring this out. I haven't been sick in 10 years and naturally lost All of my body fat without trying.

I work in a grocery store . Hyper inflation and the cost of white bread tripled. I'm wondering would people eat better if food didn't cost more than a house payment ? And that is white bread . The cost of eating healthy means they would have to live out of their car and fix it from the dash board. There was a kid that use to buy a cart full of healthy foods . He can now afford 1/4 of that cart . He said...I still eat healthy, I just have to not eat for three days due to high cost. Rich get richer and poor eat white bread.
You can take over inflation due to Joe Biden hundred dollars of groceries for years ago is now over 300 I just cut back my eating a little bit and I tried to concentrate on my main food items to be organic and non-GMO

I feel healthier now at 72 than I did in my mid 60s. I started listening to my care givers and changing my eating habits. The biggest misnomer to me is how nutritionist know you're going to cheat, so they give you allowances in foods you should not eat at all.
Thank you @jaymichael91 for sharing your great results and helping inspire others. That is so awesome. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
Yep…. Even 95% adherence is not enough…. So ‘cheat days’ are an absolute no-no….
@@brucemckay6615: Nonsense. Eating 95% healthy food is MUCH better than eating below 25% re lots of things like metabolism, sugar, sodium, fats, cancer risks, and on and on.
The nutritionists allowing for human nature is likely much better than just having patients lie and do random things when they cheat.
What naturalism substitute do you know of for synthroid or levothyroxine?
As a woman in my mid sixties with a couple of medical issues I do my absolute best to to eat as healthy as possible and your videos are invaluable to me.Thank you for explaining everything so well,I really appreciate you!
The way you manage your crops is inspiring! 🌾 [8:05] Thanks for the great advice
This one 40 minute video would greatly alter big pharma if we all absorbed the information and followed through with it daily. Thanks Dr. for your level of information and details
Thank you @dna7500. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain the principles and mechanisms of health in such a way that you start gaining an understanding and respect for the miracle that is the human body. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and start owning the mechanisms we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
Thank you for all you do and for caring. @@drekberg
Merci @@drekberg
❤❤❤❤❤
The truth is most of us fall sick enough to search out this information ourselves
A doctor, in addition to knowledge, must also be understandable to his patients. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Ekberg, for his precious videos. Ciao from Italy
The low fat myth really adversely affected my weight and health. Will try to eat healthier. Thanks for your ad which warned about bread, rice, etc.
I think this is the best nutrition channel. I understand everything better, bc he gets into scientific details and I remember that for whatever reason. So, no matter how tempting a lot of foods are, I indulge so rarely bc of knowing what it's doing.
It's a big challenge for me bcos i live in country that so call reach of foods varieties. I've been on diet for 4 yrs and since then i admitted it's has been countless i felt into those unhealthy food. Wish i can totally out from those unhealthy food..but i managed to lose 35kgs..now i'm on ideal weight..thanks Dr.Sten for priceless info
I also would like to thank you for this great explanation of bad things we put in our mouth. I like the speed of talking, one can get all the material.
Needs to be taught in every classroom/ school…..like Right Now!!!! Thank you again ❤
Excellent. This should be a part of school curriculum and new parent teaching. Raise our littles right!
Comer papa hace daño?
Teaching children how to eat a nutritious diet is a PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY. Parents need to stop being lazy and pushing their responsibilities onto teachers and schools. We already have more than enough to do! And how about teaching your children proper, kind, and polite behavior, too? Most people these days raise their kids like pets. They feed and clothe them, sit them in front of a screen, and think they’ve done their job. Sad.
Thank you. Keep on sharing the truth. You are a credit to your profession.
Dr. Eckberg, thank you for being the one who put me on my Keto journey, and being so instrumental in me turning my health around nearly three years ago.
I love your channel and the way you break things down for us Dr. Ekberg! I am encouraged that I am on the right track and know how to eat! I am 42 and don’t have any health problems or take medications. Thank you for sharing this information and keeping it in the light!
¡Gracias!
My grandfather drank wine every day and was never sick. Lived to age 84.
I totally agree. There is a difference between having a drink or being an alcoholic.
O.K, well thats air-tight proof that you should do it too....
Uh… maybe coulda been to 94?
So, you think 84 is old???? Ha ha ha!!! That's young!! I will be disappointed if I don't make it to at least 104!!
I think it’s when and why you drink alcohol or wine. Wine has been drunken in France for years to accompany the meal and may be occasionally drunk in the evening. I think Dr. Ekburg stresses that too. I think it’s when you drink to suppress your worries or depression you begin on the spiral down maybe. An holistic doctor once told me you can nearly always tell a person suffering stress by looking at their face and hands. He said if stress causes these signs on the outside what do you think is happening on the inside?
“Energy drinks (corrupt food) and credit cards” that’s the deepest analogy I ever heard from a true dr. Respect 🎩
Bravo merci je comprends mieux maintenant, j'adore le pain et c'est addictif, j'écoute également vos autres vidéos. Je vais changer ma façon de me nourrir 😊
I love your videos. I find it so knowledgeable and interesting. I have always struggled with my weight and sugar addiction. Now I am older I want to eat a clean diet. I know people who live at McDonald's and are a bad influence. I know somewhat what is healthy. I don't smoke or drink alcohol. You are a great example of looking fit. I really want to learn as much as I can watching your videos. Thank you, Dr. Ekberg.

A friend of mine is an alcoholic. I've been warning him for more than a decade about what is coming his way health wise. He drinks 16 bottles of cheap wine every week. He's now in hospital being tested for bowel cancer after he went in to have his piles taken care of, as if that wasn't bad enough. If he doesn't stop he will 100% die from his drinking, no question.
How old is he ?
@@adammckay2647 52. I've already lost two friends to alcohol in recent years. It seems to be an epidemic atm. I live in a small street of 20 odd houses and I know of at least 4 alcoholics living here.

Drinking alcohol isn't a problem. As your story demonstrates, abusing alcohol is very bad for your health.
@user-sc3ts6lf8r No it's not. Millions of people do it in moderation without any risk whatsoever. Quality red wine has health benefits. Abuse of alcohol is a problem like the abuse of anything else.
Hi Dr Sten,
I have started following you, and most of what you say makes sense. I am planning on doing the Whole 30 diet for the third time in January, so I know what it’s like to give up sugar-it's not easy.
The main issue for me is that I travel for work, so I’m forced to eat at restaurants, which is almost impossible to do healthily. Do you have any advice for this?
I have a load of questions for you but for now, I’ll leave it here.
Thank you so much for this video and all your other ones. I have learned so much from you. I’m spreading the word but most don’t want to listen unfortunately.
Redefining 'food' is critical on a personal level as well as societal. In this video you describe it as 'real food' vs 'fast food'. I distinguish them by calling them food and "food".
Thank you @AzaleaBee. Exactly 😄
Thank-you Dr. Ekberg for all or your instructional videos, they are the best out there. Bless you!
Is there anybody who still doesn't know these things? 90% of the products in a supermarket is garbage... Thank you dr for reminding
Yes far too many.
I know married couple one diabetic. Gross weight. Both. Very high carb, takeaways.
Going on Keto has made shopping really easy 😊
Nutrition in the form of food is most beneficial to your health.
In’23 my ex’ was in NHS hospital in Staffordshire. I was shocked that for weeks, they gave him tomato soup, (HIGHLY INFLAMMATORY/HIGH in SUGAR) and juice,(WITH SWEETENERS!) hardly anything else at all as he wasn’t allowed a main meal in months. Strange, they were giving it to start with (mushy meat, potato, & some veg). They wouldnt let us try stuff, but did @ the start & son juiced greens which he drank & improved, could move his arm a bit and hand.
Then as they weren’t giving him any protein or vitamins, they were making the inflammation a lot worse, he went down hill, and deteriorated. We didnt get to take him home as expected.
I told someone he’s not getting ANYTHING his body needs to live. I told him you need protein and vitamins, even a bit of starch and youre not getting any. Your body cant live without it!
Absolutely disgusting food in our hospitals anyway even if you CAN HAVE meals. I hardly ate anything in 8 days when i was in. They said youve got to eat. I said get me something healthy and I will. I tried stuff but didnt eat the rubbish. How on earth are you supposed to get well. Or, perhaps thats it.
👍👏👏👏❤
Boy did I score! The hospital i was in had insane food! I didn't want to leave! I ordered off a menu. All fresh... veg... u name it! But healthy! Ashland, Oregon Kudos!!!
It was probably easy to digest though. IV's can sustain you. I lived on just that for months once. It takes a lot of energy to digest whole foods. Not saying the food was great- it wasn't but just pointing this out. They want no issues- they deal with this every day. They probably know real food makes people gassy and vomit. Nutrition can come when you get home.
Thats the problem, its easy to digest but not good for a sick body so, its easy to ruin a body@@MOAB-UT
@@MOAB-UTlow carbo, high fiber-> hard to digest-> lowering glicemic index, hypertention, etc.

Needs to add 2 important things to bread: 1) Eat sourdough bread only and in small portions, as sourdough breaks indigestible proteins (ie gluten). Plus sourdough bread has a much lower glycemic index. 2) Whole grain bread is full of lectins, which damage your intestines. So don't eat it at all.

Dr E… how is it possible that rice and grains are bad foods. The Japanese have been eating white rice for hundreds of years and are some of the healthiest people on the planet.
because they COMBINE those foods with HEALTHY, WHOLESOME foods like vegetables, fiber, and protein, and they are PHYSICALLY MORE ACTIVE. You have to look at the WHOLE PICTURE, and NOT ISOLATE individual food items. 70 % of the American diet consists of SIMPLE CARBS, PROCESSED FOODS, and SUGAR.
Also usually our rice is fortified which makes it bad. If humans and machines chemically change how the food came to form naturally than it's not good.
Don't argue
Just listen and learn

@@جنجالیpart of real learning is questioning, for clarification. If you don’t ask questions or express that some things don’t make sense to you and you ask for further explanations, then you have a weak mind, you have no critical thinking skills. Perfect candidate for brainwashing.

Thank you @eddiejones.redvees. That is so true. Most people don't care much about health until they've had a scare or a diagnosis. The average audience on TH-cam is 13 y/o. Mine is about 60. 😄

As a Korean, I don't even eat rice and I've quit everything else, but I can't quit drinking.
I'm the same way with sugar!! Serious !!

6-7 cups in a day? What kind?

I had my VA doctor tell me one time that he would rather take a pill and eat what he wants then to change his diet for the good he was overweight as well
Went to the hospital for a CAC scan. I was amazed at all the overweight doctors and other health care works that were overweight and just looked unhealthy. Even the security guards had lots of extra weight on them.

Was in a local supermarket, and a grossly overweight woman was riding a motorized shopping cart. In the cart were several twelve packs of a well-known cola and multiple 2-liters of the store brand diet sodas.
Filled to the top and nothing else in the cart, she rolled to the checkout. Soda is more addictive than alcohol. The sugar effect is more obvious and immediate.
Yeah.. I know exactly what you mean. 😊
Lucky it was diet soda... Or she'd be TWICE that size ⁉️

Thank you Dr. Ekberg, could you please cover the following subject: What happens to Dairy products after heating them up for pizza, cooking with butter or drinking a hot chocolate?
Thank you @djmalou. Unless you use raw dairy, it has already been heated, so - not much happens after that. If you can get raw dairy though, it has enzymes and bacteria that helps you digest it. 😄
@@drekberg Thank you for your answer! Strange, it seems I can't digest cooked butter at all, the uncooked I can though. Croissants, puff pastry, butter sauces... no! I was also expecting to have some toxins to form when cheese is grilled...

In Canada we don't have high fructose corn syrup in our food much. People in the US are dealing with one of the worst sweeteners imaginable, a sweetener that's high in fructose and it's in everything, and it's produced with glyphosate resistant corn. Even baby food has HFCS. It's pretty alarming. a lot of countries actually discourage the use of HFCS. It started being a common sweetener in the US when various policies made HFCS a cheaper option than white sugar.
Well that's because USA is run by evil demonic forces. Seriously. My word
