It’s horrible. I am 10 years clean from alcohol and a couple of other outside issues. I just got over withdrawal from sugar and refined carbs, and believe me, I had withdrawals. Maybe because of my past opioid use, but it was close to that withdrawal. Whole body pain, insomnia, you name it. Doing much better now and I feel so much better! My brain functions are back after damn near dementia, and I have more stamina, and can feel joy for a change.😂 Plus I’m skinny again. I highly recommend quitting.
Welcome to the club of good health. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

😊😊
I kicked alcohol 2 1/2 years ago, but I don’t know if there is any “other side” for me about sugar. 😢 I have a criminal amygdala.
Thank you for your posting! I have insomnia, severe short term memory loss that’s scaring me and whole body pain that I couldn’t relate to any particular activity. My doctor ordered bloodwork that didn’t reveal a cause. But sugar addiction screams loud and clear. I am a sugar addict but I didn’t realize what I was experiencing was from sugar. Certainly makes sense now. This very day, April 14, 2024 is the first day of my going off sugar and with the Lord’s grace being successful!
High fructose corn syrup is the drug bastard of all sugars. Great vid gentleman. Thx
This is so true. You can eat straight up sugar cubes and they aren't nearly as sweet tasting as things made with that crap
In love with Dr. Robert Lustig ❤️
He is telling you what you want to hear. Unfortunately that is far removed from the truth. Are you so dumb to think sugar is more responsible than other foods for so many overweight people? You don't believe cheeseburgers without the bun,, pepperoni cauliflower crust pizza, chicken wings, bacon and eggs, keto ice scream, T-bone steaks, and fried chicken won't make you fat? C'mon use your brain. Sugar consumption has declined significantly in the USA in the last twenty years. Obesity has kept going up at the same rate.
Dr Lustig is very passionate about human anatomy and public health.
What *is* surprising is his admission about caffeine - as it's a cerebral vasoconstrictor and considering how important white brain matter is, you would think he might eschew it in that regard. I imagine most things in moderation are equally helpful.
@@mark-ishHe said it with a modicum of irony.
This interviewer asked questions I’ve wondered about for years, especially about artificial fibers and protein powder. Very helpful video.
I admit that I have a sugar addiction. It is such a PITA! I fight with this all the time.
This video was a pleasure.. Got straight to the point.. Not a lot of mindless chatter.. Thank you!! ❤
I went keto then did meditation bought nothing in a packet except for deliberately allowing myself chocolate at weekends.
Cold turkey is easier if you learn how to do total fasting.
I found out that bread was deal breaker.
I could not just have one slice.
Chocolate was different somehow.
So the trigger for me is bread and must be totally avoided in my case.
I fast at least eighteen hours most days and then total fast for 36 hours once o'er week.
Eating fat like butter or lard and not being afraid of it has helped me escape the sugar trap.
May I ask what your LDL cholesterol is on a keto diet?
Sugar is bad. Do walking..
Well done. Can you elaborate on what your specific goals are and how close you got to them? Don't feel obliged to answer, but you took the trouble to write so if you can complete sharing your story.... 🌟
So what is your total cholesterol numbers
Impressive lifestyle change
I’ve listened to many of Dr Lustig’s videos but this one is my favorite!
Thanks again Dr. Lustig and Doug for trying to help others.
very educational. definitely will make changes to me and kids nutrition after this
I am starting utube sugar anonymous😂 Hi my name is Garry and I am a sugar addict 66 years now. It started in 1958 in first grade when my Catholic Grammar School first grade opened the candy locker in the back of the classroom every day at lunchtime with the most awesome display of candy one could have ever imagined!
Super helpful video! Thank you Doug and Dr. Robert for your valuable information and your nice presentation on Warning Signs You’re Eating Too Much Sugar! Keep up the good work! Warm greetings from Melbourne of Australia!
In the first 5 minutes of this video, Dr.Lustig helped me to understand the down regulation of dopamine. He's an amazing teacher ❤️
thank you Dr Robert H Lustig !
Brilliant absolutely brilliant!
Great conversation
Thank you for admitting you're addicted to coffee, Dr. Lustig 🤣👌💯
I love my morning too!
Java Java ☕️

Wow! Thank you for clearest why about glucose and fructose. Like your teaching style with musical voice range.
Excellent video!!
Thank you both!
The great and fabulous Dr, Robert Lustig, who has already changed lives of millions, for better, salute to you !
Lustig is full of crap.
@@donwinstonwhat are your credentials 😂 oh right, you're one of the vegan army who like to cherry pick what you believe in and are easily offended.
@@mark-ish Lustig is a charlatan and full of crap. The insulin carbohydrate model for obesity is completely devoid of any truth at all. It has been disproved beyond any doubt a zillion times. Lustig still promotes this nonsense as well as making many other baseless unscientific claims about weight gain and sugar and fructose.
Jay Feldmans podcasts helped me realize that sugar isn't that bad. Especially not natural sugars. Keto/carnivore doesn't work AT ALL for me but I got super scared of carbs bcs of the fear mongering in the keto/carnivore community.
When I quit eating sugar, I have severe insomnia, very irritable, tired, can’t function at work until I eat sugar again. I’ve tried to quit but can’t due to how bad it affects me at work. I’m an addict!! Sugar absolutely has withdrawal. I was addicted to opiates. It has very similar withdrawal symptoms. Insomnia being one that is horrible. Irritability, nausea, sweating. It absolutely produces withdrawals
I used to regularly get myself 2 candy bars whenever I went to the store, and really enjoy them. (plus other stuff) The way I backed off of them was by sensing what I was able to put off or say no to at the moment, realizing I didn't want to sneak or shame myself or hide, but I just kind of was my friend and said no to what I could, without being punitive. I changed my habits over time. So I don't know if that story is any good for you, I'm just thinkin' about what you're sayin'.
My sister had to let go slowly. Now, she's fine without sugar. Slowly switching from things like chocolate to fruit might help as a first step. Insomnia is awful! I hope you can get over the addiction! :-)
lol. Ex junkie with somatic histrionics. Similar to opiates!! I 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@datacipher keyboard coward. Bet you wouldn’t say it to my face .
16:50 into the video for advice to quit.
@lakerslovewater Thank you so much! I always scroll down to see if any commenter has provided important time stamps, especially where it's not to be found in the video description. Today I happened to be able to watch the full video, so I did. But I often need to get to the crux of the matter in a hurry and as thanks for the info, I leave a 👍and a comment, even if I don't subscribe.
So, don't think that you are doing anything wrong by providing a short cut. I do the same, whenever I have the time.
@@user-kc7mu4jp4pnot sure why you would consider that person is doing something wrong, lol.
Thanks!
Wonderful interview, many thanks! 👏
I've shared it with relevant ppl in my life.
Immense gratitude for Dr Robert, and I can't wait to immerse myself in his book, 'Metabolical', which I've recently bought.
Greetings from London, U.K. 🌷
Dr Lustig makes a point that fructose is the addictive substance, in contrast to glucose. I can think of lots of counter examples. I loved to eat macaroni. As I understand, that's not fructose. It breaks down to glucose. Also I ate potatoes. I don't eat them now, because I am diabetic now. I used to eat bread and butter.
Same here!!! I love bread 🥖 and pastry 🥐. Flour is in 95% of bakery ( I don’t know the real percentage, but I mean a lot) and the rest are flourless or alternative flours.🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
This is mostly glucose…
Sorry you are diabetic…. It’s tough!
Take care ❤❤❤
grains wheat have proteins which are highly addictive, I think it's gliadin, gluteomorphin, look up Dr Davis Wheat Belly. most people have the hardest with bread, the sweet is much easier to quit.
As a kid I ate brown sugar from a spoon. I kept a baggie of it to dip into.
I have cut out most of my sugar. I say most because there sugar comes in so many products , like fresh fruits. However, I do my best. I have lost weight and my glucose levels have came down to normal. Unfortunately, I am thinking about all the bakeries will go out of business .. what about birthday cakes and children’s parties? How about a book for alternatives recipes.
I was told I was on the verge of diabetes, so for the past month I did what I could to lower my blood sugar by testing every morning. I've been right around 100. well, yesterday at 4 pm I ate an oreo and this morning I read 148. So, I'm glad I have improved my overall habits, and the sweets I was eating were going to make me sick in the near future. The cookie was not so super delicious to me, either. I will watch this all the way through. Plus I had stress over political watching and a thing I said about my sister.
Carnivore diet. It changed my life.
Carnivore is the way to go.
Also intermittent fasting!!!
Lustig is a giant. You are honest and direct. The industry of food making only money...
What do you expect the food industry to do? Make food nobody will eat! You are being silly. Stop stuffing so much food in your mouth and move your butt.
I swiched smoothies for Cheesecake and the results have been staggering! Thanks Doc.
Thanks
I am interested to order a continuous glucose monitor. Where sold and how much
Thanks. Singapore
44:05 - I've found unsweetened sodas that have a little natural flavouring, and like dry wine with a fruity flavour, they taste a little sweet to me. It's wonderful to have bubbles again!!!
Love it, looked it up and it's got floride and micro plastic
@@jakemelinko I hope not in Australia, too. Enjoying one now.
About 3 weeks ago I stopped eating sugar, or most of it. I have used a spritz of maple syrup once or twice. I've only eaten whole food, real food, no meat. I stopped because I realized I was getting the jitters from sugar related hunger pangs and glucose spikes. It's working! I'm 75, and I've abused my body for a long time. It's never too late to learn or to change. in fact, change is guaranteed. With regard to withdrawal, I ate fruit instead, along with my rice, beans, greens and grains. I've tempered the fruit some now.
Why don't you eat meat?
It is industrialized, wastes resources, and regenerates violence.@@stepheneverhardt4731
Why stop eating meat? The only food that contains no sugar!
….and has the protein that you need!
Well, it's not just about sugar. Sugar and simple carbs are an obvious beginning. Meat as a food source is unsustainable for the world's population. I do currently eat eggs, fish and some dairy.
Wow doctor beautiful work, never seen anyone explain addiction so deep,I guess you done 12 steps program😂
A. Edit out host
B. Provide topic timestamps
Thanks
I understood you a bit thanks dr funding
I think doing a dopamine fast by going backpacking in the wilderness would be a lot more fun that being locked up in a hotel room with books.
I use marijuana. I know the doc is right about the dopamine receptors having a higher threshold and lower count(cell death). But hey, any chronic use like caffeine is probably much worse considering what it does to cortisol, dopamine and insulin resistance
Surger is converted to glucose in the body, fruits, carbs are also ultimately converted to glucose, sugar is a concentrated form of glucose, moderation based on personal activity, is the key , the difficulty is requiring lots of energy while young due to higher activity, this is learned and habitual, later in life you tend to slow down like the guy started with shovel is now managing others with shovels , eats just as before but not spending the same amount of energy, result a slow insidious gain with justification, denial, I know for I am living it, even zero sugar low carb doesn't compare to the demands the brain imposes with signals to subvert your understanding
I’m hoping you can give me some advice because I’m running out of hope on this issue.
4 months ago I got a kidney stone, I’m 54 and never had one.
They did surgery and removed the stone.
I had been on a normal American diet, sugar and fast food.
I went on a low carb and high fat diet. Carnivore with low carbs. Went I had my latest blood work after 4 months, my glucose went up from 92 to 108. Fasting insulin was 10.
Fatty liver test went from 26 to 32.
Uric acid was 7.8.
How can my metabolic health get worse when I cut out 90% of the junk I was eating? I’m at a loss and I’m worried about my uric acid and sugar.
I was eating everything and tons of sugar and cookies and my blood work was better.
Hope you can help me
Maybe you’re eating to much protein.
HiJim: those numbers are puzzling. I have a few thoughts : did you gain any weight because the body can make its own sugar ( gluconeogenesis) from protein and fats especially if the calories count is too high. Are you eating large amounts of fruit? The body cannon ert excess fructose to glucose. What are you drinking? Both soda and fruit juice are literally liquid sugar and can mess with your metabolism. Sports drinks are often high in sugar. One of Dr. Lustigs videos mentioned an athlete whose performance was deteriorating, he was as prediabetic and had to quit his sports drink. Also you said you quit 90 % of the junk food you were eating . This implies you are still eating some junk food.i suggest testing suspicious items with a glucometer to see which foods are spikingyour sugar. You could also test blood sugar one hour after a meal.
33:12 "...you can't freeze fiber."
Blueberries have fiber (2.4gm per 100gm - same as oranges), and they can be frozen no problem.
Freezing probably does destroy some fiber, but certainly not all in all fruits.
I go through serious withdrawals when i try to stop eating anything sweet - it's all i think about. It's my only addiction.
If you really work at it you can loose most of your cravings for sugar. I was a horrible sugar eater. I feel so much better giving it up. Still have to work on giving up corn, flour, and rice.
Rolling berries in sugar before eating is almost eating a tsp of sugar. Been there done that. Lol
Simple way is to not eat any sugar. Once you quit, after a while you get used to it and you won't miss the sugar. Sugar is terrible for you, so unhealthy for the body. Sugar from fruits isn't bad, plus it's not added sugar.
I ❤️ Fruit But In moderation
The sugar in fruit is still sugar....fruit is bad for your teeth...
@@nigellee9824that's why we clean our teeth. there's plenty of health benefits from eating essential vitamins over processed supplements. You lot are odd balls.
More than what u think
Thanks for the information. I definitely agree with the idea that you need to be consuming mostly unprocessed/minimally processed foods while getting a sufficient amount of fiber. As far as fruit smoothies, I think you’re still getting a good amount of fiber, but not as much as if you eat the fruit whole.
Compete nonsense. There are no fibre in smoothies. And besides that fibre is indigestible that's why you have big poops
The fiber doesn’t go away in then blender. No different than your molars grinding it up. Blender just pre-starts the digestive process. Blender isn’t juicing. Everything you put in is still there. If you’re still worried about the fiber, throw a few hemp/ chia/flax seeds in.
@@user-nf2th3bn5t what a load of rubbish. You think fruit juice has the same fibre as the whole fruit 😂 😂 😂 you know nothing pal
Wrong
39:20 Proteins
Smart! Dopamine Fast!
Going cold turkey is a recipe for failure/depression considering the nag of withdraw. I accidently started juicing a year prior to limiting sugar (then wheat, corn, rice and soybean oil). Now I blend for the fiber and nutrients. Nutritional saturation is needed to build willpower to resist the call of the nag, pretending to be hunger. Sugar robs a homie of nutrition. After decades of sweet and sour pork over rice, eating bok choy, onion and garlic stir fry seems remote. It was a lot easier to limit sugar AND wheat after building up nutrition. Especially on Friday nights when reasoning tries to convince you, you deserve a pizza for being so good.
When i quit sugar and carbs i had 5 days of flu like symptoms. After a few months i had one piece of birthday cake and next day had the worst hangover.
If you have to eat every 2 hours, you are carb addicted!
Where does maple syrup rate in this problem list ???
Pure fructose
Is there any minimum quantity of sugar required in grams?? like honey?
Required for what? Carbohydrate, including sugar, is the only macronutrient not needed from an external source, as the body will create the glucose it needs through a process called gluconeogenesis. There are many people who have started eating a carnivore diet in which they eat zero carbohydrate, and some have been doing it for 40-50+ years without any problem. In fact, many say that eating no carbs is healthy and can reverse many issues, including autoimmune, skin, gastrointestinal and mental health issues.
Any studies to support this?
@@Shiny54 no hay estudios, porque quien los podía pagar no lo hace, porque afecta el negocio de los alimentos y el negocio de las farmacéuticas. Cuyos pro pietarios son los mismos.
Yes...people that 100% commit to a no sugar, low carb lifestyle that Dr. Lustig and many doctor's recommend and do what they say and not lie about it (like accidentally forgetting to mention the 2 large pizza's, 24 dunkin' donuts, and gallon of cookie dough ice cream) they slipped in 3 days week.
There's really no study to prove anything to anyone. Just observe someone that does the aforementioned properly and see the results and there's your study.
People, even in their 80's, that do this reduce immensely or even get off all medications and drop weight to a normal level with this lifestyle.
Limit added sugar to
If high animal protein intake with high branched chain amino acids promote de novo lipogenesis which may cause fatty liver - why does carnivore cause massive weight loss with reduced visceral fat, low Triglycerides- high HDL ?🤔
I've heard swishing baking soda and water takes sugar cravings away.
I haven't tried it yet. Has anyone?
What do you have to lose. Try it.
I've been mindful with my sugar intake. It does add up to weight loss, mood and focus - dropping e.g. the sugar in coffee, or having mainly 70%+ cocoa content choccies. Such an ostensibly small thing can do a lot for the body.

Dr lusting I have to buy some oranges to make my bowels move since am eating properly 2 meals cabbage ect but I intend to stay on my diet but need my bowels to work dr lusting
I say I have a horrible sweet to explain why I am not eating sweets.
Great information!! Thank you!! Everyone needs to see this!!!
Are you saying that a woman's liver can only process 25gms of sugar in 1 day....or, at one time during the day ?
In one day
It’s 24 g.
262 names for sugar!
I am under the impression that Sperm cells, metabolize fructose? Is that not correct?
What about sugar in fruit
Negated by fiber
Fruit juices are very bad. The equivalent of a liquid candy. When you eat a piece of fruit, the fiber slows down the sugar spike. Drinking an orange juice, it's just all fructose without the fiber. That will skyrocket someone's blood sugar.
Did you even listen?
@@calibby85 it’s a long episode. Maybe they had to step away for some of it and missed it. I see no need to make a snarky comment. Whatever happened to kindness? Isn’t life hard enough?
Well put. Have a great day@@dragonwithagirltattoo598
Yes, it is BAD!!!
I dropped the sugar like a hot potato! I dont drnk pop, alcohol or fruit juice. A pot of black coffee and mist of a pack of cigaretts are my only addictions.
Is INSULIN spike twice daily on lunch and dinner necessary for amino acids to enter inside muscle cells??
Not if you eat steak and butter!
Every kid I've ever seen for the last 70 years will spoon sugar out of a jar if allowed
My sister & I did, or at least something similar - jello.
😊 ❤
Use fruit dates to break sugar addiction.
Have to Watch All the Sugars in Disguise, ingredients that end in ose are to looked out for. Soda industry is probably Worst Pusher of All, followed by Captain Crunch and his crew. Switched to "Sugar in the raw" is my attempt at control. especially when i heard that Bleach the sugar white to make it look more visually appealing, but the problem with that is it Takes All the Nutrients out. William Duffy wrote + excellent Expose on sugar danger. I'm not sure they're still in print tho because of the Corporate assassin's
I can easily eat several kilos fruits.
But sir the only one time I went starbugs that coff3e had a ton of sugar I thought it was honey with a drop of coffee
I can’t say anything! I’ve never been in any Starbucks 😂😂😂😂
If you like black coffee do not waste your time. Some of the lowest grade of coffee out there.
Starbucks will add sugar to your drink order if you don’t tell them otherwise. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve forgotten that.
@@quicklykay 😂😂
Ikr, I've never tried Starbucks but I've heard it described as "liquid sugar with a bit of coffee flavor" 😂
Great discussion about fruit and fiber starting at 26:05.
❤
I always eat three dates a day. I understand the theory sweet to the mouth harmful to the liver and vise versa. Please
Plan to fail. Fail to plan.
I just ate a quarter pound of dates
your problem...
@robertrandom7931 ...but the fiber...
It was a treat. I limited sugar to 9 tsp/day as you suggest two years ago and turned my health around.
@@robertrandom7931 Now when a sugar treat is served, the next day I have a psoriasis flair up. Before limiting sugar my psoriasis/psoriatic arthritis was constant. Now I can tell when it hits. That's from putting in practice what I learned from Fat Chance: Fructose 2. Thanks
A donut has more calories from fat than sugar, but it’s those pesky carbs that are the problem.
Every single time I watch videos on this topic I see a verry common question: " are there studies to support this "?
Do you actually think this man can talk like this for an hour or 2 at a time and just make this up??? LOL.
This guy knows EXACTLY what he's talking about due to "studies" for years.
If he posted the medical studies he's been observing for years do you think people would actually read them and retain?? We live in a society where people form opinions based on a couple sentences they read on Facebook and create enemies with someone because they were too lazy to research what the truth may have been. What makes anyone think someone would read medical research where they can't pronounce the words anyway??
Just LISTEN to what he recommends and see how healthy you get. It's hard to swap to this lifestyle like this but you CAN if you try hard enough.
That will be the "study" people are looking for 😊
I personally think when people ask this question, some not all, are basically saying this man is talking out of his a** and they want to read the medical data that proves this when they damn sure will not.
If you are one of those people, ask the food industry to provide medical data showing that cheerios reduces cholesterol and that Nutella is a fine way to start your kids nutritional day off with a big 30 oz cup of sunny delight and then eat healthy fruit snacks out of a bag 3 times a day.
But hey...it says it on the package so it's 100% been clinically studied and the proof is in the pudding because my kid is 7 years old and weighs 110 lbs and just got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

Sugar is ultimately very bad for you sorry!!!
20:18, "What if you had cocaine in all your food?" I'll say: bring it on!!!! ;)
Ever seen an old cocaine addict? I haven’t.
@@dragonwithagirltattoo598 are you saying....coca causes eternal youth?
Ironically Coke originally did have cocaine in it, that's where their name "Coca-Cola" came from. When they were legally banned from using cocaine, they added more sugar.
WAY TOO MANY ADS ! ! !

Can't freeze fiber? Frozen berries, all the frozen veggies...
And their all mushy
When they thawed, they are all mushy and the flavor is sooo different!!!
You’d need some kind of refrigeration device, stop living in the future 😂
I had a power outage and put everything in the freezer for maybe a day or two. The vegetables came out like mush.
Grocery store veggies are full of preservatives also. Helps with the mush from prefrozen store products. Completely different from feezing fruits and veggies at home. Try it and see for yourself
He eats steak from corn fed beef??? Ooooh. Better stick with grass fed!! Corn has been sprayed with glyphosate .

I have never heard that heme iron was inflammatory. I would like to read that study could you please give me the link. Thanks
Older generation helping younger? How are we supposed to do this when long term care is $5,000 - $7,000 a month? Save your pennies boomers or move in and live with your kids.

If you are sensitive to innulin you should stay away from it. Otherwise innulin is ok 🎉
Totaly wrong, if i should drink 1 0,35 l coke a day i surely would have choose ordinary coke!
They actually have a sweet tooth...it's the only tooth in their mouth.😅😅
I hope I'm not off point by saying this. I am not a sugar addict, but I do like the taste of an occasional cookie or bite of chocolate. Let's say I decided to eat zero sugar for 100 days. The idea that I'd experience these awful, horrible withdrawal effects is laughable. I might miss the fleeting pleasure of chewing up a chocolate chip cookie, but I'm not going to experience several days of misery!!!!
Its the devil !
Zero carbs, zero veggies...or just drink the kool aid.
Why not to say it in 5 minutes
