I was diagnosed type two diabetic 20 years ago and weighed 300 pounds. I went on my own diet stop eating sugar and flour in a year. I lost 70 pounds and I am not diabetic now.
I'm a 70 year old retired Registered Nurse who began seriously dealing with my own type II diabetes over 20 years ago. I totally affirm everything in this video, and I can now happily say that I live with a regular keto diet much as described by the good doctor: I eat fat & protein & low carbohydrate veggies
Namaste Dr. Ekberg… greetings from India 🇮🇳..me and my husband star intermittent fasting after watching your videos… stopped consuming sugar… my husband had high cholesterol and was about to start pills… but thanks to you 3 months into IF his cholesterol levels were perfectly normal… I also lost around 15 pounds… tons of thanks to you 🙏🙏
But you're _supposed_ to be on at least 8 by that age - you're killing yourself, *LOL!!!! GOOD FOR YOU, that's wonderful!!!* My mom is 77 and is also on ZERO medications! I'm 51 and can say the same.
One of the things that are really irritating is that so many doctors never want to fix problems, they just want to maintain them. Thanks Doc for your info it is life changing and at my age that's great
Yummy pies, cakes, cream pies, cookies, ice cream and the many donuts I used to eat everyday until watching Dr. Stan Ekberg videos. Now I read labels looking for the evil added sugar and other toxic chemicals. My treat is now full-fat plain yogurt with added fresh or frozen berries.
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 👍👍👍
He's not a medical doctor but I agree that medical schools should teach this stuff. I've been shocked at how poorly my long term doc, who is a DO, understands nutritional science.
@@genuineimpulse9134 Seems pretty typical of the medical profession. Too much reliance of drugs to manage symptoms rather than dealing with the root cause, which is nearly always nutritional imbalances or deficiencies.
@@MrPDawes exactly, and again another area where WE have just let it get worse and worse. If we accept the agenda we have no one to blame but ourselves
Thank you Dr. Ekberg. I have cut sugar consumption to almost zero and my body is now used to that. Another positive response is losing weight and back pains.
@@patrikbjorling4391 Loosing weight helps reduce stress on the back, plus removing sugar reduces inflamation that affects the muscles and joints in the back and spine. IMHO. My back pains have dissappeared since I went LCHF and lost 20% of my body weight.
I quit drinking and sharply cut back on grains (like, almost none except a very thin slice of German Rye for breakfast with boiled eggs) and junk food and I feel so much better! My face isn't puffy anymore, YAY. Dr. Ekberg makes it easy to understand and puts the responsibility squarely on each of us to be the steward of our own good health. THANKS, DR. EKBERG!!
This is a very important topic. I've noticed that since I have given up sugar and even sugar from fruit, I appreciate real food much more. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for talking about this very important topic.
Sincere thanks for all that you do to educate us. 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!!
The problem is, a lot of people who could have benefited from such great information are not interested in it. They either don't want to or can't resist the sweet temptations. And that´s really sad.
And they'll argue with you even if they've no idea what they're talking about. I'm often accused of being on a 'fad diet'. When that happens I pull up my shirt so my belly is visible and invite them to do the same. I don't get many takers.
Used to consume a lot of sugar until I became prediabetic. Now that I’ve greatly reduced my sugar intake, it’s amazing how quickly I get aches and pains in my knees, hips and lower back when I occasionally indulge. Good thing is, these symptoms subside after a few days of cleaner food and time-restricted eating.
@@SL-fu7sh same here. My back went out for about a week when I over indulged on peanut butter fudge. I can definitely feel it in my knees when I eat too many sweets
Thank you so much DR. Ekberg. This video should be added to education syllabus to all high schools. Younger generation is in the crisis of high sugar intake.
No wonder we have so many health issues these days!! Excellent, informative video as always Dr. Ekberg ❤ It is absolutely possible to cut out all ADDED sugar! “Added sugar has no place in real food.” 🤩🙌🏼
As being a past semi-pro/pro endurance athlete (cyclist), having a background in the medical field, and doing manual labor almost every day...even while still being in "great shape" I can really start to sense changes in the body...they are subtle. 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 a feeling that for many if they take all this to heart...the differences felt between "now vs. later" would also be a feeling "out of this world." Thank you Dr. Ekberg for truly opening my eyes.
Be careful on that diet to add serious fiber to it or you will destroy your colon with diverticulitis! It’s a bad thing that happened to me! I did better on a low carb diet eating small meals!
@@Juke582 Fiber makes diverticulitis worse, that's the worst thing he could do. Stop eating fiber at all, it's completely useless to the human body and you don't need it.
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
Growing up, doctors and teachers blamed greasy food for acne. My college roommate swore up and down that she had a break out of acne everything she ate very sugary foods. I was a bit dismissive because the sugar connection to acne wasn’t being discussed like it is now.
Если избыток сахара то: 1. Вкус не ощущаете 2. Зависимость будет увеличить 3. Проблема с кожей как старение и появление других проблемы в коже 4. Быстро перегружать печень 5. Перепады сил 6. Перепады настроение 7. Вздутие живота 8. Будет имунные нарушения 9. Переваривания сахар будет создавать проблемы и уровень сахара превышает нормы и приводит к сахарнему диабету 10. Частые простуды и грипп и снижает иммунитет 11. Занимает место где должно быть полезных вещей (витамин) 12.
Dr. Ekberg has been saying this for years in different ways. This particular breakdown is a bit more digestible like you pointed out. Most people are idiots including me. They don't just make the lifestyle changes needed but keep coming back to youtube videos hoping that just watching them repeatedly might somehow give them the catalyst to make the changes!!!
Saying "the difference between glucose and sugar" is like saying "the difference between a Chevy and a car." Glucose is a type of sugar, as is sucrose and lactose.
Been watching the Dr for a few years and although I don't know what he's talking about some times he practices what he preaches and I think he is incredibly smart and to me knowledge is the key to life's journey
Most doctors don’t know (or don’t want to) test for HOMA-IR because they need a reason to prescribe diabetes medications. There’s too much money to lose if suddenly our populations became health conscious and cut out sugar. So now there’s a decent financial ecosystem from childhood cereals to old age medications that keep certain companies very profitable. 😢
I was a very young woman when I came to the US, healthy and not a single cavity at age 22 yrs.old., from Germany. Within one year I had gained 20 pounds and two cavities, due to a totally different diet which I ate at my friends house. I lived in 5 countries-the US has the sweetest foods I encountered , We also do not snack as much as Americans. I want to add. that the American people are the friendliest people I have met, New Yorkers excluded!
I like your comment. I just wanted to add a funny story told to me by my brother who spent some brief time in New York city years ago. One day he asked a horse mounted cop politely for directions to a nearby building. The cop looked at him quizzically and said: "What do I look like? An F'ing road map? Ask someone who cares". One can only hope this wasn't one of NYC's finest!
I was in a head on in GA. 10 miles from home and several emt's from NY on vacation were at the scene with medical bag but no gloves and were not gonna assist me but the RN came along and saved my life with the ambu bag the NY ppl had. Praise God for her.

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...
I feel this way about fast food burger joints, name any of the worldwide ones, they all have the same weird sugary taste to them. Pretty gross stuff once your tastebuds can identify it.
There is an old saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away". According to some sources, a single apple contains about 3.5 times the recommended daily intake of fructose. It doesn't make sense that consuming more than thrice the recommended amount is healthy, and at the same time be bad for you. Is the old saying wrong, or are there other factors that come into play?
Dr. Ekberg, you are so much right. When I first came to USA I couldn’t even eat bread. It was so unusually sweet. I don’t say about sweets, they are extremely sweet.
I appreciate your humility in saying ," in my opinion". Few people with strong knowlege and conviction about this subject will express such humility. What you discussed are knowlege so much needed in this world of " mainstream ignorance". I experiened all those signs and symptoms at age 45.I felt so old.i craved sugar to the point of no return. I was diagnosed as prediabetic.I refused to take anti sugar meds. My visions became blurry. No time to watch videos nor read health articles. At age 55 I was overweight with enlarged liver.I have asthma attacks, colds and flu more frequently than most people. My joints get frozen in the morning I could not even turn. Now at 64 I am healthy, full of energy and free of aches and pain. I took control of my health seriously. Thank you for your wonderful health information. better Knowlege is power. So true. Much appreciation for your workbso well- done. ❤️👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
That's not true if the only time you ever have cake is on your birthday you're not going to have a problem also it depends on where you get the cake and what's in it I find that if I get a cake from a bakery it's not as sweet as one I get from a grocery store
Ive had a healthy diet all my life. But still managed to.get diabetis in my sixties. Now 77 i get annoyed with people assuming its because y eat junk food. Prejudice against diabetic people
@@davechartier6898 it can happen to anyone not just the overweight. Any illness can happen to anyone even if they eat and exercise. Both my.sister in laws fixed this category one died cancer the other has had cancer twice and now has fungus in her lung. I would say don't worry ifvyvare eating the right veg. Y get in utube eat this eat that. Even some vegetables are deemed unhealthy salmon said dontveat gives you cancer then another Dr says eat salmon. Eat what you think is a healthy diet
0:24 14 years ago when my brother and I moved from Iran to Malaysia and The Philippines, our reaction was the same: Yoghurt can be sweet and fruity? Where to find unsweetened bread? Even the ketchup seemed more like a red syrup than anything made of tomato. Now that I live in Germany, foods are much more controlled and feel real again.
I found it very interesting since I've been type 1 brittle diabetic for over 45 years. I run a lot of highs and lows. I have no complications at 66 years old.
So true all of this. I want to address the skin. Years ago as a teenager and young adult I ate tons of sugar and had fairly severe acne. Back then they said it was unrelated to diet. I wish I was low sugar back then I know my skin would have been MUCH clearer. Even in my late 50s I am acne prone but keto has helped my skin tremendously
Add fiber to that diet as you will destroy your colon and get diverticulitis like I did! Horrible painful thing! I did better on a low carb diet eating small meals.
Another excellent video giving facts not fiction. The lies we hear from news outlets, dieticians, doctors, nutritionists, etc is quite astonishing Keep up the good work doc.
If there was only an easy way to detox from sugar…as I get older I see the damage it’s doing and I don’t smoke or drink but sugar is my vice …I’m continuously trying quit :(
Try increasing your protein. It's helped me to do that a lot. Also if I do have sugar and eat a bit of protein after, I don't act like a lawn mower or cookie monster after😅
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.
Me too! I am going to 59 in May and have been off sugar since 2016. I take no medications anymore, lost 53 pounds, and look much younger than I am. Try it!
Thanks Dr Ekberg for "raising the bar" ("lazy viewpoint " 18:14 ) We can do it! Decide today to turn your back and say no to highly processed and sugary food, for the sake of our health, quality of life and longevity 👏👏👏
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.
You had me at "rewarding kids by giving them sugar/ candies". I cannot tell you enough how many candies teachers at my kiddos give away as a reward when they achieve an A. Our culture is tough to change/ control/ clarify.
Awesome video! These warning signs could help prevent serious health issues. Key indicators of excessive sugar consumption include unexplained fatigue and energy crashes, particularly after meals. Constant hunger and intense sugar cravings signal blood sugar imbalances. Skin problems, especially acne breakouts, can occur due to hormonal disruptions from high sugar intake. Other warning signs include frequent headaches, increased thirst, and digestive discomfort. Long-term symptoms may include weight gain, mood swings, and difficulty concentrating. More serious indicators include blurred vision, slow-healing wounds, and frequent infections4. If experiencing these symptoms, reducing sugar intake is crucial.

Thank you for confirming my thoughts…..so fruits and natural grains are fine in moderation, but the table sugar, cane sugar, beat sugar…..all nothing but problems……thank you…..so I’m not crazy….🤦♀😂 And you’re right….I’m 62 and my dentist says there is not a tartar build up on my teeth when I go every 6 months for a cleaning……and for an avid coffee drinker…..hardly no stains either…and I drink it STRONG……really strong…..just no sugar or substitutes…….your confirming a lot of thoughts….
Making your blood sugar fluctuate also affects your mood tremendously! I think it’s a cause of road rage a lot! Arguing with people and being grumpy too! Consider this issue as well with sugar intake! Your body is all out of control!
Did you hear about the legal case in Ireland where subway was prosecuted based on the definition of bread being salt flour and max 3% sugar. subways bread had circa 10% sugar and therefore was not bread and therefore is cake which means that it attracts VAT sales tax ~ whereas bread by definition doesn’t attract VAT sales tax
Yo tomo y consumo productos sin azúcar añadida pero sí contienen azúcar, entonces está bien consumirlos siempre y cuando no diga que contiene azúcar añadida?
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.
It's wonderful to learn something truthful about the world we live in. Chemistry is fascinating. Thank you so much, Dr. Ekberg, for explaining the difference between "glucose" and "sucrose"! I really need to completely eliminate sugar; I've eliminated everything except for one specific treat. Sugar is completely Addictive. I'm 78 and again have acne; painful itchy raised bumps that drive me crazy and it's all because of Sugar! Thank you for all of your enlightening lectures. Knowledge is power.
The "primitive" people also did not subsist on grains and potatoes. They were essentially carnivores. Cutting out the sugar is *not enough* to fight tooth decay. You also need to cut out all the grain and starchy vegetable carbs.
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
Eat plain yogurt, it has no added sugar. Worse, flavored yogurt has to have "stabilized" sugar to keep the probiotics from eating it. These are worse for you than normal sugars.
Whatever the substance, addiction makes quitting hard. The comparison between alcohol and sugar lies with how the liver processes it. Fructose and alcohol damage the liver in such a similar way that most should avoid consuming it.
I totally stopped sugar when you posted the video of 30days no sugar challenge. Seeing me, Now many people in our health community have stopped eating sugar. We had a 15 yr boy doing it for 1 year and now for all of us it is our lifestyle. Tats it period🙂
This is one of the best videos for me, I understand insulin clearly now, since following you I make a conscious decision regarding added sugar sweet stuff, my weight is in my BMI range and life is great, Thanks
Many Asian friends are so surprised of the high level of sweetness when they tasted desserts and cookies in America. When American friends are introduced to Asian style cakes and desserts which are lighter and less sweet, they immediately fell in love. So it’s not just healthier when desserts are not loaded with sugar , it also tastes better.
Your videos inspire me daily to stay away from sugar and refined carbs. Thank you! I have recently, and for the first time, had my C-reactive protein tested and it’s nearly in the danger zone. Having watched your videos faithfully for years, my guess is that you think the “safe range” is too generous, and I expect you would consider my number scary. Would you please consider producing a video that explains what C-reactive protein is, and how we can reverse a scary result naturally?
You mean flagged as "danger zone" even after being on a low carb diet for 3 months I was in that zone just had another tested 1 month after the test (4 months low carb) referred to from a Rheumatologist it's improved. I have cervical spine issues.
you should do a debate with paul saladino about natural sugar in fruit and honey, he shows a lot of studies that support fruit and honey being healthy, would be interesting to see you two discuss it
It is healthy but it is non an all you can eat because it is still sugar. Limited. Plus, all fruits are not created equal. Dattes are not equal to blueberries for instance. The first ones are over sweet (high-school glycemic index) unlike berries.
When I was a child, whenever I went to the dentist they would always give children sweets, I wonder why they used to do that??? I have been asking myself this question as well - why do we brush our teeth with toothpaste when it is full of sugar, sugar rots teeth, doesn't it!
Excellent info and presentation. FYI - we don't have cold and flu season...we have an overload of SUGAR season (especially from Oct - Feb...just look at the HOLIDAY SUGAR from Halloween thru Valentine's Day!). They get the kids hooked early!!
It's difficult to avoid added sugar. They stuff it into everything. No matter what you go buy in a grocery store, there is sugar in it. We spend hours reading labels looking for food with no sugar in it. Of course, we ate buying raw meet and veggies but sometimes you want a variety of food not what's left to buy when looking for something without sugar... Same with vegetable oil. They stuff that scrap in everything too.
That's why I rarely go out and eat anymore, I can't trust how a meal is prepared. On the rare occasion I do go out, I presume they use recycled bad cooking oil. When I do have fruits, I have mostly berries & apples. I avoid pineapples and many other tropical fruits.
This is such an important and helpful video, and as usual very well explained 🤓😎👍👍 It helps enormously that Doc Sten Ekberg talks in that slow mode, so you can easily understand it and get the point. Thanks a lot 😊
I've watched many videos with the same topic, but i especially like yours the best, because you use a very easy to understand language and compress all the informations in a relativly short clip without any bloated filler content. It also helps that i find your voice very soothing. Thanks for your concise summary :)
Thank you so much for sharing this information. Recently, I started to have muscle pain and could not figure it out. In the back of my mind, I was wondering if I could possibly be sugar. I started to eliminate additional sugar in my diet and was hoping that it was the cause of my muscle pain as I notice it to be more severe after I had a few pieces of candy. Bye-bye additional sugar, and I will think twice before I take another bite of food with added sugar
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.
@@mamaitaliano9774 I have no idea but it certainly sets a habit. Rather than just leave it up to a child when he gets near sweets to go Stark raving crazy LOL
I do Carnivore most of the week and I am now delighted to get a legit HANGOVER headache every time I have even a pizza or a chocolate! Nothing motivates you to keep up the good foods like a hangover every time you eat stuff you used to eat every day!
American foods with added sugar are very sweet. I noticed this many years ago when the US- made chocolates replaced the UK-made equivalents in the country in which I grew up - US chocolates were SO SWEET!! No chocolate taste - just sweet! I find that many foods are unnecessarily sweet. No flavour, just sweet - loads of sugar or artificial sweeteners. It's downright criminal.
In the European Union, such so-called American "chocolates" are legally classified as candy, not as chocolate due to the amount of sugar they are made out of even though their European versions (Mars, Twix, Kinder etc.) are already WAY less sweet than the American one. Still not considered as chocolate.
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
Thanks for the info.....all good nuggets of wisdom. I am still on my path to insulin reduction. I reversed diabetes to prediabetes in just over a year.....a few more months and I get a peek at my new levels.
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 was diagnosed type two diabetic 20 years ago and weighed 300 pounds. I went on my own diet stop eating sugar and flour in a year. I lost 70 pounds and I am not diabetic now.
That's amazing. Congratulations for being strong enough to do it

Well done!! ♥️

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 👍👍👍
He's not a medical doctor but I agree that medical schools should teach this stuff. I've been shocked at how poorly my long term doc, who is a DO, understands nutritional science.
True!
@@genuineimpulse9134 Seems pretty typical of the medical profession. Too much reliance of drugs to manage symptoms rather than dealing with the root cause, which is nearly always nutritional imbalances or deficiencies.
@@MrPDawes exactly, and again another area where WE have just let it get worse and worse. If we accept the agenda we have no one to blame but ourselves
Rumor has it that Medical Doctors we're created by the pharmaceutical companies and Physicians are not.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg. I have cut sugar consumption to almost zero and my body is now used to that. Another positive response is losing weight and back pains.
Thank you @ntombicumalo. Congratulations 😄
@@drekberg Thanks to you doc. I am learning and profiting a lot 👍
What is the connection to back pain?
@@patrikbjorling4391 All I know is that after I have reduced the weight, the pains were gone.
@@patrikbjorling4391 Loosing weight helps reduce stress on the back, plus removing sugar reduces inflamation that affects the muscles and joints in the back and spine. IMHO. My back pains have dissappeared since I went LCHF and lost 20% of my body weight.
I quit drinking and sharply cut back on grains (like, almost none except a very thin slice of German Rye for breakfast with boiled eggs) and junk food and I feel so much better! My face isn't puffy anymore, YAY. Dr. Ekberg makes it easy to understand and puts the responsibility squarely on each of us to be the steward of our own good health. THANKS, DR. EKBERG!!
That German Rye bread makes my mouth water!
Ditch the bread.
This is a very important topic. I've noticed that since I have given up sugar and even sugar from fruit, I appreciate real food much more. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for talking about this very important topic.
I almost dont like coffee or alcohol after switching to a relatively high fat and low carb diet.

So good to see people are benefiting from this info
Sincere thanks for all that you do to educate us.
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!!
The problem is, a lot of people who could have benefited from such great information are not interested in it. They either don't want to or can't resist the sweet temptations. And that´s really sad.
If the rest of the people would stop paying their medical expenses, suddenly everyone would be interested.
People are addicted to their taste-buds as others are to Heroin.
And they'll argue with you even if they've no idea what they're talking about. I'm often accused of being on a 'fad diet'. When that happens I pull up my shirt so my belly is visible and invite them to do the same. I don't get many takers.
Ignorance is bliss 🙉😅
@@gilessteve you're right!
Used to consume a lot of sugar until I became prediabetic. Now that I’ve greatly reduced my sugar intake, it’s amazing how quickly I get aches and pains in my knees, hips and lower back when I occasionally indulge. Good thing is, these symptoms subside after a few days of cleaner food and time-restricted eating.
Same here! Sugar makes all my joints hurt!
Mine hurt and didn't know why all of sudden aches an pains. Drink to much Pepsi. Time for a change.
You & me both
@@SL-fu7sh same here. My back went out for about a week when I over indulged on peanut butter fudge. I can definitely feel it in my knees when I eat too many sweets
I think it effects me l like that, sugar is bad yet so addictive.
Soon as I touch sugar I have no limits, I'm best staying away altogether.
Me too
Agreed. Everyday I have to have some type of sugar
Ditto!
У Меня тоже

Thank you so much DR. Ekberg. This video should be added to education syllabus to all high schools. Younger generation is in the crisis of high sugar intake.
It should also be compulsory for new parents.
No wonder we have so many health issues these days!! Excellent, informative video as always Dr. Ekberg ❤ It is absolutely possible to cut out all ADDED sugar! “Added sugar has no place in real food.” 🤩🙌🏼

As being a past semi-pro/pro endurance athlete (cyclist), having a background in the medical field, and doing manual labor almost every day...even while still being in "great shape" I can really start to sense changes in the body...they are subtle. 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 a feeling that for many if they take all this to heart...the differences felt between "now vs. later" would also be a feeling "out of this world." Thank you Dr. Ekberg for truly opening my eyes.
Sugar is poisonous. Given up sugary food and sugar more than 10 years. Very informative thank you for sharing 🙏
Oki first sugar is not poisonous you do need sugar in ya diet to survive you simply need it in moderation

I've been on keto for 15 months. No more pre diabetes, no more obesity. Happy Man. 😊
Be careful on that diet to add serious fiber to it or you will destroy your colon with diverticulitis! It’s a bad thing that happened to me! I did better on a low carb diet eating small meals!
@@Juke582 Fiber makes diverticulitis worse, that's the worst thing he could do. Stop eating fiber at all, it's completely useless to the human body and you don't need it.
It will devastate your body before long.
@@Juke582 it's not true. I don't know why that happened to you, but it's not related to the keto diet
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
Growing up, doctors and teachers blamed greasy food for acne. My college roommate swore up and down that she had a break out of acne everything she ate very sugary foods. I was a bit dismissive because the sugar connection to acne wasn’t being discussed like it is now.

This is one of the best breakdowns of the differences between glucose and sugar I've ever listened to. Thank you for a very digestible breakdown!
Thank you @HSHeart723. Glad to hear it. 😄
Digestible, hilarious!
Dr. Ekberg has been saying this for years in different ways. This particular breakdown is a bit more digestible like you pointed out. Most people are idiots including me. They don't just make the lifestyle changes needed but keep coming back to youtube videos hoping that just watching them repeatedly might somehow give them the catalyst to make the changes!!!
More like INdigestible!😂
Saying "the difference between glucose and sugar" is like saying "the difference between a Chevy and a car."
Glucose is a type of sugar, as is sucrose and lactose.
Been watching the Dr for a few years and although I don't know what he's talking about some times he practices what he preaches and I think he is incredibly smart and to me knowledge is the key to life's journey
Most doctors don’t know (or don’t want to) test for HOMA-IR because they need a reason to prescribe diabetes medications. There’s too much money to lose if suddenly our populations became health conscious and cut out sugar. So now there’s a decent financial ecosystem from childhood cereals to old age medications that keep certain companies very profitable. 😢
The most clear and direct break down of this subject I have watched on TH-cam!
I was a very young woman when I came to the US, healthy and not a single cavity at age 22 yrs.old., from Germany. Within one year I had gained 20 pounds and two cavities, due to a totally different diet which I ate at my friends house. I lived in 5 countries-the US has the sweetest foods I encountered , We also do not snack as much as Americans. I want to add. that the American people are the friendliest people I have met, New Yorkers excluded!
I like your comment. I just wanted to add a funny story told to me by my brother who spent some brief time in New York city years ago. One day he asked a horse mounted cop politely for directions to a nearby building. The cop looked at him quizzically and said: "What do I look like? An F'ing road map? Ask someone who cares". One can only hope this wasn't one of NYC's finest!
that IS LIVING IN New York !thanks!@@joeblog2672

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...
Wish my taste buds were as sensitive 😔
Subway is labeled a dessert because of the bread

There is an old saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away". According to some sources, a single apple contains about 3.5 times the recommended daily intake of fructose.
It doesn't make sense that consuming more than thrice the recommended amount is healthy, and at the same time be bad for you.
Is the old saying wrong, or are there other factors that come into play?
Dr. Ekberg, you are so much right. When I first came to USA I couldn’t even eat bread. It was so unusually sweet. I don’t say about sweets, they are extremely sweet.
I appreciate your humility in saying ," in my opinion". Few people with strong knowlege and conviction about this subject will express such humility.
What you discussed are knowlege so much needed in this world of " mainstream ignorance".
I experiened all those signs and symptoms at age 45.I felt so old.i craved sugar to the point of no return. I was diagnosed as prediabetic.I refused to take anti sugar meds. My visions became blurry. No time to watch videos nor read health articles.
At age 55 I was overweight with enlarged liver.I have asthma attacks, colds and flu more frequently than most people. My joints get frozen in the morning I could not even turn.
Now at 64 I am healthy, full of energy and free of aches and pain. I took control of my health seriously. Thank you for your wonderful health information.

So true all of this. I want to address the skin. Years ago as a teenager and young adult I ate tons of sugar and had fairly severe acne. Back then they said it was unrelated to diet. I wish I was low sugar back then I know my skin would have been MUCH clearer.
Even in my late 50s I am acne prone but keto has helped my skin tremendously
I went keto 6 months ago and all 10 signs have disappeared. Thanks Dr. Ekberg.
Add fiber to that diet as you will destroy your colon and get diverticulitis like I did! Horrible painful thing! I did better on a low carb diet eating small meals.
Another excellent video giving facts not fiction. The lies we hear from news outlets, dieticians, doctors, nutritionists, etc is quite astonishing Keep up the good work doc.
Does your doctor tell you to eat added sugar? And processed food?
If there was only an easy way to detox from sugar…as I get older I see the damage it’s doing and I don’t smoke or drink but sugar is my vice …I’m continuously trying quit :(
Try increasing your protein. It's helped me to do that a lot. Also if I do have sugar and eat a bit of protein after, I don't act like a lawn mower or cookie monster after😅
Each time I stop taking sugar, I will start feeling lazy, difficult to assimilate things, and low energy. I wish I could find any replacements.
Des fruits
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.
Me too! I am going to 59 in May and have been off sugar since 2016. I take no medications anymore, lost 53 pounds, and look much younger than I am. Try it!
Thanks Dr Ekberg for "raising the bar" ("lazy viewpoint " 18:14 ) We can do it! Decide today to turn your back and say no to highly processed and sugary food, for the sake of our health, quality of life and longevity 👏👏👏
Thank you @therese3960. I love hearing that. We can raise the bar. 😄
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.
I stopped eating sugar three years ago and I became a vegetarian and I’m no longer pre diabetic and I’ve lost 100 pounds

You had me at "rewarding kids by giving them sugar/ candies". I cannot tell you enough how many candies teachers at my kiddos give away as a reward when they achieve an A. Our culture is tough to change/ control/ clarify.
Awesome video! These warning signs could help prevent serious health issues.
Key indicators of excessive sugar consumption include unexplained fatigue and energy crashes, particularly after meals. Constant hunger and intense sugar cravings signal blood sugar imbalances. Skin problems, especially acne breakouts, can occur due to hormonal disruptions from high sugar intake. Other warning signs include frequent headaches, increased thirst, and digestive discomfort.
Long-term symptoms may include weight gain, mood swings, and difficulty concentrating. More serious indicators include blurred vision, slow-healing wounds, and frequent infections4. If experiencing these symptoms, reducing sugar intake is crucial.

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.
It's wonderful to learn something truthful about the world we live in. Chemistry is fascinating. Thank you so much, Dr. Ekberg, for explaining the difference between "glucose" and "sucrose"! I really need to completely eliminate sugar; I've eliminated everything except for one specific treat. Sugar is completely Addictive. I'm 78 and again have acne; painful itchy raised bumps that drive me crazy and it's all because of Sugar! Thank you for all of your enlightening lectures. Knowledge is power.

The "primitive" people also did not subsist on grains and potatoes. They were essentially carnivores. Cutting out the sugar is *not enough* to fight tooth decay. You also need to cut out all the grain and starchy vegetable carbs.
I decided to stop consuming sugar after watching your and dr berg's videos
I'm only 18 and very fit
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
Eat plain yogurt, it has no added sugar. Worse, flavored yogurt has to have "stabilized" sugar to keep the probiotics from eating it. These are worse for you than normal sugars.
Whatever the substance, addiction makes quitting hard.
The comparison between alcohol and sugar lies with how the liver processes it. Fructose and alcohol damage the liver in such a similar way that most should avoid consuming it.

Many Asian friends are so surprised of the high level of sweetness when they tasted desserts and cookies in America. When American friends are introduced to Asian style cakes and desserts which are lighter and less sweet, they immediately fell in love. So it’s not just healthier when desserts are not loaded with sugar , it also tastes better.
No, they tend to find it bland due to the over sweet food they are used to.

Having watched your videos faithfully for years, my guess is that you think the “safe range” is too generous, and I expect you would consider my number scary. Would you please consider producing a video that explains what C-reactive protein is, and how we can reverse a scary result naturally?

you should do a debate with paul saladino about natural sugar in fruit and honey, he shows a lot of studies that support fruit and honey being healthy, would be interesting to see you two discuss it
I consume that during marathons like yesterday because most other food causes me diarrhea when working out that hard.
It is healthy but it is non an all you can eat because it is still sugar. Limited. Plus, all fruits are not created equal. Dattes are not equal to blueberries for instance. The first ones are over sweet (high-school glycemic index) unlike berries.
When I was a child, whenever I went to the dentist they would always give children sweets, I wonder why they used to do that??? I have been asking myself this question as well - why do we brush our teeth with toothpaste when it is full of sugar, sugar rots teeth, doesn't it!

It's difficult to avoid added sugar. They stuff it into everything. No matter what you go buy in a grocery store, there is sugar in it. We spend hours reading labels looking for food with no sugar in it. Of course, we ate buying raw meet and veggies but sometimes you want a variety of food not what's left to buy when looking for something without sugar... Same with vegetable oil. They stuff that scrap in everything too.
That's why I rarely go out and eat anymore, I can't trust how a meal is prepared. On the rare occasion I do go out, I presume they use recycled bad cooking oil. When I do have fruits, I have mostly berries & apples. I avoid pineapples and many other tropical fruits.
I saw sugar added in raw chicken too! Crazy 😝
Thanks Doc. Another important thing I understand about sugar is that Cancer cells love to eat it. If you have cancer and eat sugar it will get worse.

Thank you so much for sharing this information. Recently, I started to have muscle pain and could not figure it out. In the back of my mind, I was wondering if I could possibly be sugar.

Aaah my favourite doctor straight to the point within first 10 seconds 😊 💕💕💕
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.
I'm curious to your reasoning regarding the one crystal of sugar on the tongue habit, if you don't mind sharing, please? Thanks! It's intriguing.
Why do that?
Thank you @SupraSav 😄
@@mamaitaliano9774 I have no idea but it certainly sets a habit. Rather than just leave it up to a child when he gets near sweets to go Stark raving crazy LOL
Yes, why put 1 grain of sugar on one's tongue?
Currently, reducing sugar as much as possible and replacing it with herbs…hope will works in the long run💪🏼💪🏼🥰
I do Carnivore most of the week and I am now delighted to get a legit HANGOVER headache every time I have even a pizza or a chocolate! Nothing motivates you to keep up the good foods like a hangover every time you eat stuff you used to eat every day!
American foods with added sugar are very sweet. I noticed this many years ago when the US- made chocolates replaced the UK-made equivalents in the country in which I grew up - US chocolates were SO SWEET!! No chocolate taste - just sweet! I find that many foods are unnecessarily sweet. No flavour, just sweet - loads of sugar or artificial sweeteners. It's downright criminal.
In the European Union, such so-called American "chocolates" are legally classified as candy, not as chocolate due to the amount of sugar they are made out of even though their European versions (Mars, Twix, Kinder etc.) are already WAY less sweet than the American one. Still not considered as chocolate.
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
Thanks for the info.....all good nuggets of wisdom. I am still on my path to insulin reduction. I reversed diabetes to prediabetes in just over a year.....a few more months and I get a peek at my new levels.
Tack för en fantastisk upplysning 😊
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❤
