I stopped drinking sodas back in 2013. A month ago I decided to cut all juices & alcohol and drink water only. Two of the best decisions I ever made.
Do you drink plastic bottle water ?
I drink ice tea at del taco only, no sugar.
Keep telling your self that kevin.
Which other animal drinks soda on earth? Or pays rent to live??
Sparkling water has been a godsend for me with cutting back on soda.
A lot of people think it tastes bitter or "like drinking TV static" and I was once a part of that crowd, but it's because of our taste buds being used to the strong flavors of soda and craving sugar.
It didn't take very long of making myself drink it before I started to acquire a taste for it and now regular soda tastes way too strong and syrupy to me. Some brands are better than others too, Waterloo is by far my favorite.
I even got my sister on sparkling water the same way I did and she drank A LOT of soda prior.
I think almost anyone can aquire a taste for healthy alternatives like these if you have will power and give yourself enough time!
It’s annoying hearing people justify bad food by saying “I’m here for a good time, not a long time”
But once they start developing health issues, their tune changes real quick.
After they start developing health issues, now its suddenly everyone’s problem and they’re a “victim”
That’s what happens when an entries country becomes godless. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
I'm here for a good time not a long time
Deteriorating health is such a good time. Definitely much better than maintaining your health well into old age.
I'm here for a long time not a good time.
Fast food isn't a cheaper option anymore anyway
Depends on the country and in which zone you live.
Yes and no. It depends
And it’s never been fast 😂😂
McDonald's is kinda cheap in Singapore
its gotten insane over the last couple years, Mc.D. wants close to 3€ for a single Cheeseburger here in germany... just not a "fast grab, doesnt matter" food option anymore at that price
Once I started cooking all my food and only eating real food excess fat has just melted off. I basically don't have to do anything to maintain a proper body composition.
same here, its honestly pretty easy to stay healthy when cooking most of your meals and eating whole foods only
Yup exactly. 90% it’s all about diet. The other 10% is exercise.
@@cjperizo4150 nutrient density prioritized and caloric density reduced, with allowances for healthy fats and complex carbs in moderation, yes
fitness is managed with exercise
weight is managed by nutritional intake
yep
@@zzuji yup
The worst is foods marketed as "low fat" that have significantly higher sugar levels. I even see "fat free" on labels for candy.
Eat food that is not processed problem solved
On some products the fat free option actually has MORE calories.
How about "non-gmo" 😅 companies are using loopholes.
@@SilentStudioExplores everything we eat is genetically modified. What do you think selective breeding is?
@@abraxasjinx5207 i know that... Dosnt make my point invalid. So many companies misused the term non gmo because so much is modified
Don’t eat fast food and don’t drink soda. You’ll be good
Some neighborhoods only have mcd and no grocery store, the system is rigged.
Pretty much, I’m rail thin and never touch either. That hamburger helper crap and similar products are super unhealthy too.
@@kittypewpew I’ve experienced that too and not only urban environments but out in the counties with only a Dollar Store that sells bologna and expired canned food and the ever present Hamburger Helper that was jammed down my throat as a child. I’m still angry at everyone who was involved in that chapter of my life, especially that mascot, little helpful hand thing.
Just let me catch Helpful Hand or his Pillsbury Doughboy pal out on the streets…
@@chrisdraughn5941Hamburger helper was a weekly meal in my upbringing
Or have self control it just like all the dam drugs u doooo too much u get fucked up or addicted common sense
One day after considering my diet choices while looking at my body. I thought of what I REALLY wanted. I've tried to lose weight for so long. But that time, it clicked. It's sugar!
I told my girlfriend and I held my lumps aggressively. I told her a couple of times: "it's the sugar!!"
Few months pass, very little physical activity. I eat fatty foods like a pig.
I'm down 40 lbs.
Many symptoms of adhd just started to become less pronounced. And I have so much energy.
same here. changing my diet made me feel good enough to start working out and it's only been uphill from there
I wish people would realize the more sugar you cut the less you want it. I used to down 4 dr peppers a day and now I have one of the 8 ounce every other week cause the regular cans are too much for me. It gets easier your body adapts
You accidentally got on the keto diet. Good for you, it is also linked in less symptoms in neurodivergent people.
@@jeremyfisher8512i wish people were smart enough to understand what theyre doing to themselves. garuntee once this “its the sugar” thing goes on for a couple months hell be back to less energy once again. sugar doesnt make you fat and keto doesnt boost energy levels, over time it will make adhd worse as well.
@@SuperCakeKing technically sugar isn’t some magic fat formula. But sugary foods and drinks are high in calories that then in turn make you fat. If you want to be less fat cutting sugary foods is probably one of the best ways.
If the big sugar companies are doing that image what big pharmaceutical companies and government agencies are lying to you about lol
Worse than we can imagine
Blaming companies and the government is a lame excuse for not using your own initiative.
@@CT-vm4gfyou can use your own initiative and still acknowledge how we’re lied to daily by our government
The crazy part is that everyone knows the difference between healthy and unhealthy food. They dont care because they are hooked. They dont even have to lie to us.
they are destroying our planet.. we should definitely be blaming the companies and the government lmao while also taking initiative to grow a garden 😂 and dont forget to watch out for the drinking water 🤯
I'm from Europe and we are shocked about the stuff the US people eat, and how uneducated they are when it comes to food. The prime example is Bread, why does the US Bread contain sugar? The same accounts for ready meals, or semi ready meals like pre made sauces. We don't need experts in Europe to tell us how bad sugar is, everyone knows it and we grow up with it and learn to check packages for sugar content and how to calculate it.
I used to live there, i thought everything in the US is better than home, until i spent 10 years living and working there, the US is a prime example of extreme capitalism where these kind of companies allowed to become to big essentially its own entity, they have so much power to even skew science studies like mentioned in this video. For example, to find a local family owned bakery that serves a plain simple bread is near impossible in some cities it’s wild an sad at the same time, Americans are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met in my life, and knowing that their government basically treating them like a commodity to keep the capitalist economy running is heartbreaking.
It’s chain reaction in their industry which will throw you from one evil corp to another even healthcare.
I think USA use certain sugars and ingredients that are banned in places like the UK, the safety standards are low in America!
That's explain the obesity.
As a European myself we still have to look at our countries, too. Obesity and chronic illnesses are also huge issues here
@@aurora6920 They promote the use of High Fructose Corn Syrup (which is bad) because of the corn surplus they have as a result of archaic subsidies and also lobbyist
All that sugar keeping you big as hell
I’m 6 foot 2 210 and fit and eat fast food all the time stop spreading false rumors food is not what makes people fat lazy ass habits and bad genetics do
Shoutout to Corey Armstrong!
I wish lol

It's almost like corporations are financially incentivized to retain recurring customers...shocker.
everyone is always like “oh it’s because they’re incentivized to squeeze every penny out of you they can without you revolting” but no one wants to question that incentive
Gotta love capitalism
They love to make big profits and nothing and I mean nothing will get in there way of doing so
The real shocker is how government steps in and regulates the "bad actors" in our economy, yet Big Ugly Food has managed to avoid regulation for 70 years and counting. Why do I say 70 years? Well that's when we first had solid evidence to suggest sugar and processed foods kill you and destroy your life and your children's lives and cost everyone everything.
@@johncrohmer834 if you give into it, who is the fool? Make better choices
Even facing Chapter 11 bankruptcy, vice still churns out these quality documentaries
"Quality "
This is the vice I signed up to ❤
This is the kind of content I would love to watch in my 10th grade health class
this is the type of content my whole 10th grade health class would have walked out over. If teachers just share videos from some one else. Do we need teachers who know their subject, or should we just get teachers to play movies and videos all day? even if its relevant, I personally want teachers to stop playing videos.
In 8th grade we watched civil war movies for history. I was sick the whole month and came back the last day. We watched Glory,maybe the 10th video in the subject in a month. great movie but when I started asking questions, not a single person who had been there the whole month was able to tell me anything about the civil war, the movies they watched, or anything else from the previous month
Videos are great way to temporarily have their attention, but not really. Unless you have the perfect students. I have autism and ADHD, so that wasn't me. And yet...I knew more being gone a whole month than any one who had staid and watched 10 plus movies and documentaries.
Instead of watch the video, run a lesson on it. for instance, to show how vitamin pills work, you can fill a water bottle up with sand. Fill it with water, and cut a hole. most water goes right out while the sand holds a tiny amount. That is basically what your body does with vitamins.
Don' teach them to continue to be space cases, develop their attention span, don't be the teacher we already had for the last 20 years...its a recipe for failure.
@@ravinraven6913your talking to yourself try some lsd please for anger
One time i had a friend staying with me in the US from Copenhagen, Denmark (Europe) and after going to the grocery store a few times to stock up for a couple days he said something like “Man how come in America you have to pay more for less ingredients?” ….. that was a good 4-5 years ago and i think about it every time im in a grocery store😔💯
I too will think about this. Ty
I've cut out almost all sugar and I started at 245 and without exercise I'm now 163
What do you eat?
@@user-uf3tb9nz2l anything with alot of protein,tuna, chicken breast, salad,simple stuff
Congrats! You can be proud as hell. Wish you well.
This needs to be a series
why? do you want them to cut this video up and drag on the information thats already stated? what you want it repeated a hundred times?
@@ravinraven6913there’s much more to this than just sugar affecting our health. High fructose corn syrup, seed oils(canola, soybean), gmo’d foods, and more. I believe there could definitely be a series.
I quit drinking 15 years ago. Quitting sugar is harder.
There is a direct link to quitting alcohol and being addicted to sugar. My doctors have mentioned this a few times. Sweet, flavored liquor did it for me. 14 months sober, yet only had no sugar for 2 solid days since I stopped.
Sugar no problem for me, but beer is my vice and im not gonna stop drinking beer :D But I don't drink beer everyday. It's about moderation. It's not good obviously but the dose makes the poison.
Stopping alcohol can also…kill your?
It *was harder for you * lol
I stopped drinking sugary drinks it was not hard at all
As someone who doesn’t drink soda, it’s hard for me to understand why so many people like it so much, leave alone being addicted to it.
I couldn't imagine drinking soda with sugar in it. Every once in awhile when I do drink a soda, it feels very unhealthy.
Just because you don't drink it as i don't either, doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to understand why people like it
its a full body experience and sugar is addictive
Jokes on them, I'm so poor I can't afford sugary drinks anymore.
If I remember correctly Phillip Morris owns Kraft, Nabisco, and Miller. That would make so much sense
Now I know why I am fat 😢
@@Yuri_of_literature_club knowledge is power, use it to help yourself, best of luck to you
I eat cigarettes for dinner
As long as there is ultra processed foods and people to consume it, there will be an entire sector of the health care system dedicated to treating people who are sick because of the ultra processed foods. Without the foods, the added sugar and the health care sector to treat these people, our economy would be turned upside down and that's why no one does a damn thing about it. So disgusting.
the poisoning of Americans is strongly rooted in Big Pharma, the FD@, and the food industry to make food as toxic as possible without killing is immediately so we can spend half our income on gyms, weight loss supplements, doctors visits, prescription medications and suffer a low quality of life and lose our cognitive abilities to see the FACT that the government is being taken over by these greedy corporations. Robert F Kennedy Jr is the ONLY politician (who’s running as an Independent Presidential candidate currently) who has successfully had the guts to challenge and Sue The heck out of these agencies and corporations for poisoning Americans, our water systems, and cities. Needless to say they pay millions to the media to bad mouth him. You should check out the law suits he’s won fighting against Monsanto !
We don’t even understand how the human digestive system works completely.
We are only beginning to understand how big a scandal this is.
Kids im 30
I just started eating only grains ,fish and geen vegetables.
Its a lil bit taste for a low amount of money.
Plus it has everything your body needs except water and oxigen
Fascinating insights! This historical perspective really underscores the importance of transparent labeling and consumer education to combat industry manipulation. Awareness is key to making healthier dietary choices. 👍
Great video but found it hard to concentrate with the background music
Make it your personal revolutionary act to avoid consuming sugar or sodas. Drink only water. Eat food as close to its original state as possible.
Amen. I have IBS, a mysterious digestive disorder with no known cause… I suspect my IBS has been caused by the low quality Frankenstein foods in America.
I read an article where Americans with IBS moved to Europe and their symptoms were GREATLY reduced.
I also read an article that described people with gluten intolerance moving to Europe and being able to eat food with gluten.
*WHAT THE F ARE THEY PUTTING IN OUR FOOD!?*
It’s crazy! The unregulated food market in America is evil.
No need to drink only water - tea, coffee, milk, electrolyte powder etc. are completely fine, as long as no sugar was added.
I just had this conversation with my friend. I gave up fountain soda, and the fast food is trash, so I have that up as well. I've lost so much weight.
EVERY item I look at in stores seems to have HFCS in it. It's bizarre sometimes, too. PEANUTS?!? Like... why. WHY. What's the purpose of *that*?! Are you crazy? I'm lucky I don't have a peanut allergy in the first place. I don't want to see much else other than "peanuts, oil, sea salt" or whatever. Also, I've seen sugars (or HFCS) in mustard, ketchup, SOUPS (wtf?!), and even potato, rice, or corn chips. Again, seriously, ARE YOU CRAZY?
Me eating Takis laughing at your comment 😂
Yeah, even peanuts, I was shocked to see added sugar in peanut butter!!! Peanut butter is already sweet!
@@fisephalnoxt Exactly. And TBH, this has been going on for YEARS. I've been paying attention to ingredient labels for at least two decades. It doubles or triples my time in stores, but if I don't do it, I end up with like 48g of processed sugar in MEATBALLS or 24g of sodium in something that should only have six. It's bloody ridiculous. But WTF am I supposed to do? I buy fresh vegetables, but I can't police *every* single item! Are you crazy?!
@@Novastar.SaberCombat yes! i've been looking at the list of ingredients for the past 10 years too, and 95% of stuff has added sugar, high sodium, it's insane, they even add sugar in corn, corn is already sweet! It's criminal! I have to pay more for my peanut butter so they don't add extra sugar or oil, insane!!!!
@@fisephalnoxt NGL, it's been drivin' me NUTS (pardon the pun) for decades. I'm tired of constantly, repetitively, always having to check every single gaedaemn label on every bloody item I buy. WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO *DO* THAT?!? That means by default, mankind is constantly attempting to deceive one another with "food" items. Why? What purpose does it serve? What's the point of poisoning people for... what... money? Profits? Another nickel per sale? Again, I know I already typed it, but... ARE YOU FRIGGIN' KRAY KRAY?! 🙄😳🤯
Whole foods cooked at home will get the job done every time. We just need to get back to basics. Skip the boxed, packaged, and fast foods and you will see your health improve. It's not that hard.
Except that tomatoes that were bred for certain traits to have increased shelf life and to transport well (boosts profits by reducing spoilage losses), have far lower nutrient density and lack any satisfying flavor. Same goes for a lot of commercially developed produce. Organic food production is crucial. For myriad reasons.

That's why when I'm feeling lazy, I just cook eggs. Way better than any ultra-processed foods.
And if you’re not hungry enough to eat eggs, then you’re clearly not actually hungry. Imagine if everyone practiced this. 🙂
@@RCV2024I’ve recently only just started doing this- not to lose weight, I’m skinny, but to maintain consistent energy levels.
I’ve always had this notion that I need to have 3 meals a day. Which is fucking crazy to think if your eating despite not feeling hungry just cuz you need to reach the ‘guidelines’. Once I started eating only when hungry, and eating healthy when I did, I felt more energised than ever and my anxiety just melted away…
@@RCV2024 I personally couldn't disagree more with this statement unless you're being sarcastic. I hate eggs, so if I am not hungry for eggs I am not hungry? are you saying because I am not starving to death yet? I hate eggs. I will only eat them if I am starving.
I finally just got to the weight I am supposed to be at for my height. Even suffering malnutrition I didn't want eggs. I would rather have rabbit food.
What an awesome video! It gave me goosebumps 🤯🤯🤯😭😭 thank you for the numbers at the end, so, so eye-opening
I stopped drinking soda when I was 18, but I know there's a lot of sugar in other foods I eat.
Good to see VICE doing the work it used to do, which many aren't courageous enough to do.

And then people wonder why we distrust experts/scientists. Everyone has a price.
Anyone can write an article saying “ scientist say”. Media companies cannot be trusted.
Government and Politicans * there I fixed it!
Who do you trust then?
@@hansolo9585 the scientists and researchers exposing this kind of corruption
Not everyone "has a price", unless the price is their life and they are fighting for survival, then dynamics can be surprising. It is sometimes about greed or status, and other times the industries use coercion in various forms. Sometimes both combined. But it really sickens me that they corrupted science. I've known for decades, but it still sickens me. Every system is corrupted. To some degree. But science, it's such a violation of the principles and very core nature of the methods constituting what science *is* and the crap they are doing isn't science. It's crime. And they called it science and dressed it up as science and robbed the trust and empowerment scientific endeavors with integrity could have provided for the common weal. Wish it weren't so. Still fantasize about humans being different than they actually are. We're doomed though.
Thank you Vice! Great information, I definitely did not know the facts about dietary fats
I couldn’t find any sliced bread that doesn’t contain sugar
It sounds like they hired the guy from Cops for the voiceover
Wow a Vice video worth a damn!!

Ive lost most of my teeth and i blame Soda, and specifically: Mtn Dew.
You’re right. Why have any self accountability when you can blame inanimate objects?
soda doesn't pour itself down your throat everyday...
I wish I could hand you a glass of water through the screen
To the the two idjit's trying to blame this guy in the comments section.
How about yall check your pantry foods and tell me how many added sugars you have in your food items?
And then tell me factually that highly processed and synthetic sugars and processed foods don't cause cancer more than naturally occurring foods that aren't so interally fake like your biased ass comments.
Dont worry I'll wait here for your answers, if you can manage it.
Blame yourself
Please more in this.
is kinda rare now days to find products with real sugar everything is sweetened with high fructose corn syrup.... "HFCS is cheaper and sweeter than sugar, and is absorbed into the body more quickly. The FDA has approved HFCS as a safe ingredient in foods and beverages, in part because of its similarity to sucrose. However, eating too much HFCS can lead to obesity, Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and insulin resistance. Some studies suggest that fructose is more damaging to health than glucose because the digestive tract doesn't absorb it as well as other sugars."
It is real sugar. HFCS is about half and half fructose and glucose just like plain old granulated sugar. Eating too much of anything will lead to obesity.
@@Thezuule1name me 10 products now days with real sugar in the US, I'll wait....
@@EvilTwinzTVOfficial do you not speak English? There’s only four kinds of sugar, glucose, fructose, sucrose, and lactose, and all of them are quite real and used in combination to make countless food products. Your question is essentially nonsense.
@@Thezuule1 you prolly a corn farmer's plant bro, the fructose is absorbed faster by the body than Sugar, i don't care how many types of sweeteners are out there is proven HFCS is worse than Sugar period in any language you want...

This is all just so true as someone who is literally addicted to SODA I definitely feel sick to my stomach..... I was given soda when I was about 3 years old I was truly hooked from the. I have tried before to go without soda when I was in my teenage years & I'll tell you right now how SICK I would get ..... I pretty much have had a soda every single day of my life since I was a kid.....& Mind you I was a VERY athletic kid growing up I ran track placed 1st in all my meets & I was never bigger than 125 through my whole life until about 5 years ago .....Now that I'm in my 30s struggling with my health & now my weight went all the way up in the 200lbs soooooooo many health problems now soooooo many..... Now I have to drink a soda before I go to work cause if I don't by the time I'm halfway through my shift I start getting really nauseous & anxious, irritable & ESPECIALLY the HEADACHES mann they get SOOOOO bad they turn into migraines..... Even when I get home finally drink some soda it slowly starts to go away & it's actually pathetic really cause as much as I would love to stop or cut back on sodas there's always that voice & me that tells me "no you don't you'll get sick" & nobody should have to feel like that because of SODA & trust me I've tried alternative drinks nothing helps it hard to be a dark soda either Pepsi or coke that's it I don't really care for any other soda I don't even like light sodas ..🤷🏻♀️ people try telling me "oh you need caffeine drink some coffee or something"🤦🏻♀️ it's 1000000% NOT the same nothing else with help until I finally drink a soda 😔
It's all confusing & irritating & I can't stand it anymore I don't want to be like this at all & I have definitely been working on it little by little I don't want to live a short life because I have become addicted to sodas ..... I definitely don't want to feel that way anymore whatsoever
Hope you can get over the soda. Maybe you just have to power through it no soda
Besides abstaining from soda, you have to give your body some good things to fuel it, it'll help while you adjust. It'll be hard and *hard* and then it'll get a little bit easier and better, and then better, and easier.
Noom (I do not work for them) has a solid program that can educate and encourage you and you can get it discounted. See if the free trial option is there, and when you go to cancel after a few days, they will offer options. I wasn't even trying to stay on and they kept making cheaper offers until I stayed cuz it was so cheap. A lot was review for me, but in 2021 I'd gained weight and needed routine to get back on track. But learned a few new things too. You'll need to get processed foods out of your daily habits too, but baby steps. Success with small changes, then make the next change. However, some changes combined will make success easier. If you give your body some nutrient dense and high fiber low sugar foods to work with, it'll handle the absence of the soda better.
Try some kefir, if you like milk it's like carbonated milk, it is slightly sour because of the less sugger
Carbonated water w lime is the new soda
As long it doesn't have sugar, it's fine.
That's my go to. Delicious. Pity they charge up to 1.50 for a lime here.
I just drink sparkling water now.
I took a drink of a Coke and it was completely flat and nasty. I realized....wait a minute, it's the carbonation I like. It is kind of funny when you think about it. Soda is no good without carbonation.
finally, a vice video about vice
doctor told me I was very close to be pre diabetic ,a few days later my friend lost his leg because of diabetes , the very next day I started my journey with fasting and it was worth it.
Nutrition labels do list sugars that are not naturally occurring, it’s listed as “added sugar”
Thankfully they do now, but it took years to get it there.
narration and dreadful music sounds like AI prompt “Video on FDA sugar conspiracy use Ganglang format”
Through 20 years in the military, I developed many addictions and went inpatient twice. I quit alcohol, pills, and tobacco when I retired, but I still felt like crap. 1 year later, I quit sugar and truly experienced change. My life is so much better without it.
So glad this dentist wasn't just hanging out and letting everything slide.
She's a hero.
Good video keep making things like this Vice ♥️
Thank you
More awareness to all
Ive been struggling with a soda addiction
Thanks for this
Ill wean off this month
dont be fooled
I cut out soda completely in 2019 and now I might have it once a year if even that. I no longer even think about drinking it and I feel way better. Plus means I can get away with eating a bit more junk food when I feel like it.
I was watching this while eating sour patch candies lol
citric acid is worse than sugar for your teeth.
Same but peanut butter m@ms
Yeah lol.. dummies still eating that crap even after all the facts.
Yeah i know BECAUSE IT IS IN EVERYTHING
only if you go to the poor people store....in the rich people store, bread doesn't have sugar in it. In a rich people store, hummus doesn't have any animal biproducts.
Trying to break my Sprite habit. I tried Jamaica for the first time a week ago. It's the most refreshing drink (aside from water) that I've ever had. I finally found a replacement.
@@suzannemeowmeow I appreciate the suggestion, thank you! I'm gonna get around to trying seltzer water eventually. I wanted to try to make homemade ginger ale with it. It's on my to do list.
I quit all sugars for 3 three years, the weight melted off in six months with no extra exercise. It was remarkable, i could never get fit before.
I've got 4.5 years eating clean whole foods. The only junk I consume is coffee creamers from International Delight with sugar. No Junk food at all. Now give me 25 jumping jacks for the healthy like I just gave you.
Fck the coffee creamers dude, you can do it! Max healthy!!
@@RandomFunZer Max Healthy.Wow that was the coolest compliment I've gotten on my health journey so far. Thank You. Yea it's one of the last addictions I have left. I'm fresh out right now too Southern butter pecan. I wonder if I can shake it off 😃 Have a Wonderful day. Thanx again
This is surprising, the international delight creamers don't really taste good to me, only a few flavours but I'd still prefer a different brand or even just milk
10 grams of sugar per serving, they've got you addicted to their product. You're better than that, look at all the other healthy choices you've committed to!
@@NeilPundick That's great now give me 25 jumping jacks for false claim of 10 grams per serving
Read a book called sugar blues. I’ve not consumed any sugar cane since 2015. I’ve never felt so great!! Sugar is like cocaine or heroine put all 3 side by side, they are natural, same possess and all 3 are highly addictive- don’t be a slave to sugar!!!
I've heard and read that there were lab studies with mice. They put them in boxes, one with sugar, one with cocaine, and a control. They found out that sugar was just as addictive as cocaine. I've called it legal cocaine ever since, and have tried to curb it. It really is hard.
It's crazy how much sugar is in everything when you start looking at the nutrition labels. Salt, too.
thats why you should make your own food. If you go outside of countries with high processed bread, they don't have Gluten Allergies. Middle east, they grow their own grain for the bread and they don't need preservatives. No one over there has those allergies. It's only in developed rich countries who add fillers that we find people developing illnesses. Celiac, was a load of poor people hog wash, but they brought it on themselves.
Everything we buy in stores is garbage.
What we eat is garbage.
What we drink is garbage.
What we breathe is garbage.
The entertainment is garbage too.
People are garbage.
And the list goes on....
When the public is ignorant, the public gets manipulated easily. Do your own research. Keep an open mind. Hear all sides. Don't follow recklessly. And listen to your body and instincts. Oftentimes, they are correct.
Scientists and safety experts were lying about side effects and factual information, so you can't exactly listen to "both sides" if "both sides" are bribed. Plus they have expert manipulation techniques. The government needs to stop allowing this.
Dont forget about seed oils
Yeah no canola motor oil
Seed oil = poison
read the food "Fiat food" - really goes into seed oils
Anything processed
Blatant evil. I lost almost 200pounds cutting out processed garbage. Saved my life.
Restaurants in Argentina aren’t allowed to use salt for cooking anymore and that resulted in much lower cases of hypertension at hospitals!😊
I wonder what’s in our water
Superb content! I would be very grateful if you could add some bibliography about the topic to the description of the video or in the comments box. I find it very important to be aware of this industry.
I went on a candida cleanse (diet and supplements) and my cravings for sugar significantly decreased.
I now check the ingredient list on everything and try to cook from scratch as much as possible. Sugar is in just about everything that is processed.
Any time I see a documentary with Dr Lustig in it I have to watch. He's knowledgeable, and presents the facts in a no nonsense format. This guy must piss off the sugar industry so bad..lol. Thanks for all you do, hopefully one day people will wake up.
I love him. He's never waivered from his message and has spent his entire career documenting the very real negative effects of sugar. Bless him for being such a pitbull on the trouser leg of this crooked industry.
Thank you for giving his name I was looking in video but didn’t see it
I stopped drinking soda, and thus changed my entire life, and lost over 80lbs. Lifestyle being the step #1. I however support artificial sweeteners and now use “zero sugar” soda as an alternative for a sweet treat. Something people also should be aware of is the amount of carbs loaded into cheap, readily available processed frozen garbage
I drink seltzer water instead of soda! 👍🏾
The Zero sodas are a huge step up from the diet junk we had available for decades.
Artificial sweeteners and zero pop is just as bad for you.
@@northshoremoana not if “bad for you” means gaining weight. Zero calorie drinks cannot make you gain fat.
I’ve drunk soda for almost 30 years all the time and I’m not overweight and have all my teeth, maybe it doesn’t stem from food and soda but lazy habits and letting yourself get overweight in the first place, you think you can eat anything and not workout and still be healthy?
Quitting sugar is super easy.
Step #1: replace all sugar containing foods with "artificial-sweetners" alternatives.
Step #2: replace "artificial-sweetners" alternatives with healthy options.
Its easy because artificial sweetners are not addicting. All people in my family quit sugar easily using steps above.
Artificial sweeteners can be bad for you so i heard somewhere.
I cut out refined sugar almost two months ago. I’m so happy now! There’s a HUGE difference between refined sugar and natural sugar in fruits. My teeth are totally different! It has been hard, because they put sugar in EVERYTHING, but I just make everything myself now. It’s amazing!
I dont view any food as "bad". Any food is ok in moderation. Its just that in today's time most peoples entire diet consist of these foods. If you ate real whole foods a majority of the time but had some mcdonalds or a soda every now and then it would make no changes to your health. Its when ppl drink soda and eat mcdonalds day in day out that makes it horrible.
Soda is disgusting.
And so are you.
@@mickjames666 projecting?
No it delicious. But drink one every other week. Preferably with a straw. Not everyday....
We need to Test Fruits and vegetables coming over our border to see what kind of Pesticides they are using and chemicals.
Here in the U.K our government minister in charge of the nations health care is married to the chairman on British Sugar, the countrys biggest sugar producer. The hustle goes on and on.
I stopped eating food and drinking.
Sleeping too.
It’s been 3 weeks 💪👊
Meth, yeah!!!
@@ChuckFreeman0102 I haven’t needed to bathroom for 2.5 weeks.
Peak efficiency 🪳🦀🤖
Gotta confuse the brain babe! Shoop-aahh
You'll be outta here in a week or so. Later
Cocaine is best!!!
Welcome To Capitalism Baby
Only chance we have as a species is if aliens come down and wake us up.
There was a really good documentary from DW on hows is sugar affecting our brain etc. It was called Better brain health. Try to guess why it was taken down :)
Amazing mathmatical demonstration at the end, very informative video! This is something we need to all agree on and once we do, we'll start to live longer and more healthy lives.
Weird. It's the people who choose to pick up the food, put it in the cart, place on the conveyor belt, watch it being scan and then choose to pay for the sugar. Where does personal responsibility fit in?
All our ancestors drank themselves rancid even though we know alcohol is literally poison. People have been getting for as long as people have had agriculture. Let’s be honest here people have been bad at personal responsibility since the day they evolved to walk upright. For those who are interested in solving problems, “what about personal responsibility” is a useless question that doesn’t contribute to a solution. Solving a problem requires a pragmatic view of how people actually act, not how you think they should act.
if you but watch the documentary you would see that they have been paying scientists for 70 years to tell your parents the food is safe and not only safe but better than all the rest. So your parents fed you famine food (cereal), pop tarts, and hamburger helper thinking that was better than water and cooked meat. Then they got diabetes later in life and died. They got diabetes later in life bc their parents weren't brain washed into eating dumb, so they fed them real food until they moved out of the house. You on the other hand got diabetes before you turned 35 and died before you were old enough to tell congress we got to make a change for our kids. Then the cycle repeated itself and hundreds of millions of people died too young. Now we are here. Will you keep scrolling and let it continue? Or will you stand up and shout at the top of your lungs "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!"
fiat foods.
fix the money, fix the world.
Your comment doesn't make and sense unfortunately. Junk food is not a result of the money we use, it's a result of the system we live in. Namely capitalism
@geizigeratze My comment might seem puzzling, so let me clarify.
"Fiat foods" refers to our current food system influenced by profit-driven motives that aren't good for the long term health of our citizens.
Bitcoin changes our focus to low time preference, incentivizing healthier living and longer living.
It's worth noting that profit-driven motives aren't inherently a problem of capitalism; true capitalism promotes free trade and follows natural law. However, issues arise with crony capitalism, where government intervention distorts markets.
By fixing our monetary system, we can address these distortions and positively impact our food choices and the world. Hope this clears things up!
Thank you sm for bringing this to attention ❤
This is an old doc
Vice is defunct now afaik so it would have to be.
There’s nothing new to say on the subject.
@@CT-vm4gf yes there is. Every day there is someone in a position of power taking money to keep the sugar flowing into your mouth.
Serious topic, but the message is muddied by the decision to film like a TLC crime murder, the loud music and displaying a stock video every 10 seconds.
FTR: I don’t know anything about filming.
Yes. True. I have to stay away from sweets. I am an addict. 😢
A great documentary. But I just finished a snickers and a mountain dew, I'm struggling to keep my eyes open💤💤💤
bussin
Is vice using an AI voice?! Hell naw!
The best thing that can happen is, fast food joints pay employees higher wages which in turn makes fast food more expensive to buy. Back in the day i might have visited a hamburger joint once a month maybe. All meals were prepared and eaten at home.
Thank you Vice, for showing the truth.
It isn't as simple as: "We were lied to. Sugar bad, fat good!"
It's about the processing!
Fruit salad: Good.
Same fruits blended into a smoothie: Bad.
Sugary cola: very bad.
Yeah it's all about the processing... so wierd how I eat a blended smoothie per day for 15 years and people think I"m 23-27 but I'm 45. I've seen 28 year olds who drink soda and eat cereal. They don't look as good as me, I can say that much.
The problem is not sugar. Sugar does not create obesity. Eating too much meat. High fat meat, whole eggs, milk, junk food and process food is the problem. 80 year ago people eat less meat, no junk food, walked more,less process food, more vegetables. That's the problem that is why people become diabetic. Fruit have sugar and is good for the body but meat and to be precise excess meat is bad for the body. Gout, heart disease, obesity ect ect is the result not sugar.
Exactly. Sugar is the best for your health. You must eat it almost exclusively to stay healthy. It contains all the essential nutrients and it's how our hunter gatherer ancestors ate and what we evolved for. When my great grandfather monkey scoured the trees for food he didn't eat high fat nuts and garbage like that. He ordered door dash with extra cans of pop. I was going to continue educating you guys but then I died at age 16 of natural causes
