    This is so true about the bread!! I use to eat garbage and after about 6 to 7 months of eating healthy i took notice of this. I gave in to eating a slicen of pizza for a friends bday celebration. When i ate slice i thought i ate a piece of pineapple that accidentally got in my slice. Nope! I realized it was the actual bread that was way too sweet. I ask others about the sweetness and they could not tell the difference, for them, the pizza was good. It was gross...

Subtle, or not, while being as a whole, the changes are absolutely relentless! THIS is pretty scary especially after seeing this episode! I will venture to say that this probably one you absolute best Dr. Sten Ekberg! Mosly because this presentation can hit home to most anyone who actually takes the time to listen. Realize that THIS is critical information that can probably change every aspect of your life...not many get to experience what it feels like to be at the very top your game. Simply put, it is a feeling this is out of this world.

    I have an interesting related story to tell ..
    My UK NHS dentist took me off his list because I hadn't been in for two years (I brush well, inc gums). Back of queue? No, they don't even have a waiting list.
    It was a bad time of life for me to sort this kind of thing out so I thought I would just go without a dentist, but as I have a sensitive tooth, and i wanted to be sure of no cavities, I completely stopped taking any kind of sugar except where it's unavoidable. I even avoided sweet cereals. I've been for years like that now, and the results are absolutely amazing. I had every single one of those symptoms in some small way, sometimes in a large way ... especially unstable energy. All gone. And I have not had a proper cold or 'flu in years (I'm 63 and walked off Covid easily too)
    SO IT WORKS!!

    I discovered that you are based about 77 miles southeast of me. I want to find a doctor amenable to keto and carnivore in my rural mountain area. Will be searching for a new one before next summer. The only one I had who encouraged a low carb/keto way of eating passed away suddenly and I was left floundering yet again. I only go to the doc once each year to retest my thyroid to see if my Synthroid is still correct because I'm never sick. My current provider, a PN, became angry when I challenged her suggestion to eat "heart healthy" because my total cholesterol was just over 200, meaning again, ignorance about cholesterol (I'm an almost 67 yr old woman. My trig were only 55, HDL 60). I eat mostly carnivore. Ignorance is rampant in the medical community about sugar and everything else to do with diet. Generally, I can't even broach the subject with any doctor. Appreciate your channel. ~Cynthia

    I got rid of sugar and all sweeteners several years ago. Don't miss it. I was always more of a spicy food kind of guys as opposed to sweets anyway. Lost a lot of weight (about 25% of my peak weight). I also don't eat processed foods with any additives. The most processed foods I eat are red lentil pasta (one ingredient, red lentils) and canned fish (in water or olive oil).
    Although I had lost a lot of weight, I decided to stop drinking alcohol about a year ago. I almost immediately lost 2" off my waist. That was a bit of a problem because I had just bought several pairs of jeans (on sale) having lost 2" at the beginning of my diet change.

    The "getting started as kids" is very true. I drank Kool-aid as a baby, so sugar is the hardest addiction for me to kick. The only thing allowing me to not eat it (over a year now!) is that sugar tends to piggyback with soy. Unless I add it myself (or make desserts), I can't eat most sugary things so it's sorta easy to not eat sugar. Going carnivore definitely helped re: fruits too. lol

  • @StormierNik
    @StormierNik 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

    Man, this is really interesting to watch. For a period of time I would eat sugary foods mostly whenever. Not really taking into account much how much I was having. Having some soda, having a dessert later on in the day. But after ive been watching my sugar intake for 6 months and limiting it below 36 grams at most, but usually around the 25g mark, the difference is insane. I used to get some sugar cravings at night, strong urge that I had to put away and which concerned me, i dont have those any more at all.
    I still have sugar, about like.. every other day in some form, but it never goes above the suggested daily intake. If i have a soda, i only have half of it because a single one goes far above. And if i have a less sweet cereal with some milk, im basically not eating much sugar at all for the rest of the day. My sugar cravings are gone and replaced with hunger to eat actual food instead (the ice cream i'd eat every other day goes uneaten in the freezer and forgotten), the random aches and paints i'd get randomly and commonly are gone, those breakouts have been like.. maybe I've had 1? When they used to be common. I don't feel bloated, and ive been losing or at a stable weight.
    Additionally, i always felt TIRED. Tired randomly, bursts of energy, wanting to stay in bed tired and exhausted, burst of energy but now i have energy at appropriate times throughout the day and get tired when i should.
    Please, anyone having above the suggested limit, you can keep having sugar as far as I can tell.. but limit yourself. It'll make your life way better and you won't even have to give up your tasty foods. It'll just make you appreciate them when you have them more.

My waist has dropped, my weight remains the same except I've noticed muscle growth.

    My taste has totally changed since I cut all sweets from my diet and live a Keto lifestyle.

      Same here; the thought of eating a "sweet treat" nauseates me now - no temptation at all, LOL.

    Fabulous presentation, far reaching, deep diving, but accessibly so! I know critics might ask for links to references, and certainly this could be a further added value for newcomers, but having encountered the sources elsewhere I know the material holds up. However it is amazing to find such information density, with concise explanations of many concepts delivered in a small amount of time. Well done, and thank you!

    Thank you Dr.Ekberg for this life saving information🙏 I am trying to make better choices in my mid 40s. Used to be athletic up to my late 20s but I got busy and constantly tired especially after choosing to be home with my kids (my choice and hubby was supportive ...also and I don't have regrets just being honest) I was tired and run down looking after 2 active boys and managing the cooking and cleaning😂.
    I didn't eat well and definitely didnt make time for exercise. I'm feeling so crappy as its been years now...I know its up to me to make changes. I loved coffee even though I was having trouble digesting it. I cut it out for over 3 months and im feeling better. I also am cutting salt/sugar/oil and carbs. Theres alot of stuff in our food!!! The best is whole foods and portion control. Salad can be unlimited but we make our own dressing. Can pair with grilled salmon or chicken. Cut down on rice and potatoes. I started meal prepping and its one of the best things I've done.
    I hope everyone watching this video is encouraged to make the changes we all need to in order to have a better quality of life for us and our loved ones❤

    I think it’s also important that we understand that foods like Fruits and vegetables have sugar (but in significantly smaller amounts). This was a great video but one piece of constructive criticism is that I wish you would clarify the difference between Added and Natural Sugars more.

  • @EthanG298

    The reason its easier and more realistic to avoid alcohol than it is added sugar is because added sugar is in everything. It feels unfair to compare the two because alcohol is often bought as its own product e.g bottle of wine whereas sugar is just another ingredient that can be added to any food/product
    If I want quit alcohol I will say "okay, i will no longer buy that bottle of wine or gin" the sugar equivalent would be to say "okay I will no longer buy those sweets" but what about the sugar in my ketchup or in my low fat yogurt or my cereal for brekafast?
    It is much harder to cut out sugar than alcohol or drugs in my opinion

    There’s also salt …lots of sodium to spike your blood pressure. Also high saturated fats -high cholesterol. So after avoiding all this stuff what’s left ? I have tried to cut way back on sugar and this has backfired on me. Alcohol too is a sugar. It’s a losing battle.

    This absolute wizard of a human being is sharing things that would be considered hidden knowledge maybe 50, 100s of years back. So grateful for your expertise and willingness to teach.
    Edit: Being elder and caring for my younger cousins, one of the things I would do when at the dinner table is take 1 grain of sugar and put it on their tongue. I never tired of doing that with every infant.

    My joints and teeth ache when I eat too much sugar. Energy fluctuation and skin breakouts are also signs I get.
