I am 65 years old and have lived through the whole sugar exposure period. Starting with having most of my teeth removed when i was three years old due to sugar exposure. My childhood was just sugar in everything. There was nobody saying it was a bad thing in those days. Despite keeping physically fit all my life and staying relatively slim i had a heart attack at 59. Due to presentations like this one i am now realising just how damaging sugar is. I am currently removing sugar from my life and pass this message on.
Yeah - the public was really deceived by the food industry. I recently dropped sugar (by relying on artificial sugar, that's right) and lost 8 pounds! I regained six pounds when I started eating sweets again. I've dropped it and have gone down by 3 pounds again and should be back down the full six within a month. That takes me to 159 which officially not overweight.
Yep my sister lost her teeth and it's bad she's also only 3 due to just eating sugar sugar sugar. Also didn't brush because she was never taught. People should be happy their parents made them eat their veges
I think one of the healthiest diets was the one during WWII when refined sugar was rationed. Households had about 50gms. per week but today many people eat that amount in one meal or snack. Manufacturers hide sugar using other names for most ending in ose.
It took me four months to get sugar out of my life and stop craving it - until I went through this detox I had no idea how addictive it was. Teaspoons of sugar a day - zero is good.
I had no idea what BLISS was possible, until I'd experienced my fifth or sixth day of a COMPLETELY sugar-free diet. And by 'Completely', I mean absolutely zero added sugars (like what they're sneaking into breads), no processed grains, no starchy vegetables, and no fruits. You have to rethink everything, to get here. But once you're here, you never want to go back.
After listening to Robert Lustwig and various TH-cam sugar podcast we have cut our consumption to almost zero, cut our processed food to zero, cook everything from scratch. My husband health has improved already. Thank you guys.
I helped many lose 100lbs by the easy phrase...gotta read it, don't eat it. Choose food that should have more fiber vs lesser fiber especially as you get older. Those 2 things helped the most since the people I know get to confused by dieticians....which I visited with them and had to correct them with the idea to watch calories on juice....juice? in a fiber war I said. Diabetics were asking me questions on the side.
The first ingredient listed on Gatorade's list of ingredients is SUGAR. As a dental student, I learned that every oral sugar exposure (EACH SIP of a Coke or sports drink) counts as a 30-minute exposure to acid in the mouth. This is ORAL risk; it seems the systemic risk is greater and more directly life-threatening. W Bryon Satterfield, DDS
Since 12th February 2023,I stopped eating 1. Table Sugar 2. Rice ( All types) 3. Bakery Products ( Refined Carbohydrates) 4. Flavored Drinks ( Nescafé, Nestea etc ) 5. Soda drinks ( Coca Cola, Sprite, Fanta etc..) & also adapted to a 12 hour Fasting at Night. Recorded Fasting Blood Glucose Every Morning and graphed with excel & monitored the fluctuations & managed to maintain it two months average of 96.5 mg/dl. Meanwhile I Increased intake of Protein (Chicken, Fish, Eggs,Salmon), Olive oil & Green Leafy Veggies (Mainly Cauliflower, Beans, Okra, Brokali & Parsley). During the day I had some milk with added coffee and dark chocolates ( 50% of Cocoa made in Sri Lanka) & occasionally had some curd with one or two teaspoons of Honey. My HBA1c dropped from 9.3 to 4.7 by 1 st May 2023 (Within exactly 78 days). ALT (AGST) dropped from 38.9 to 12.7. Weight lost 8.7 Kg. My BMI is exactly 22. I am so happy to bring down My HBA1c to None Diabetic level ( < 5.7) without any doctor fees, Prescription Drug Costs, Unnecessary Lab Report Fees & without time wasting. Meantime, I got my Lipid Profile, eGFR (Kidney Function Test), Complete Liver Profile, Full Blood Count & Specially the C - Peptide Report that measured the functionality of pancreas & all reports are almost perfect (No deviation from recommended values ). My special Thanks going to Prof. Robet Lustig, Jason Fung, Dr. Sten Ekberg, KenDBerryMD, My wife for preparing the delicious meals without Carbs and you also.
This information will not be readily acceptable because cutting down and/or eliminating sugar affects big industries- food, medical, and pharmaceutical. And anyone being sponsored by these same companies will not promote this information and may actually suppress it or lie outright in their marketing. Anyone who is not ready to listen to this information, won't. I love scientific backed, neutral information from scientists and doctors who have integrity and have experience through practice and thorough research. Thank you! Keep up the good fight! You're saving lives and every life matters!
Totally agree with you. Also until there's a pharmaceutical drug to treat NAFLD physicians won't be testing for it as protocol. I only was tested because I requested it even though I had Metabolic syndrome my physician never tested me prior to me asking for it. Sure enough I have it. Then I had to do all my own research because all I was told was to lose weight!
I cut sugar and processed foods over a year ago. Although it had been 2 years since a dental visit, not only did I have no cavities, the hygienist told me I "have the gums of a 20-year old." I'm 59. Bonus, my A1C is 5.1 and triglycerides are 66.
Off added sugar about 8 months, still eat non starchy veg (starch is concentrated sugar)... lost about 50lbs, cravings for sweets, crisps etc 95% gone, feel healthier, eating nutrition dense, non-processed foods!
Good for you. I’m a senior but also active teaching and training in the martial arts but found it difficult to drop weight. Cut out sugar and processed foods and lost 30 pounds in a couple months. I think sugar and refined foods are responsible for more deaths than any virus past or present. More power to you...
I disagree with the doctor’s statement that eating healthy will have an economic impact because healthy foods are more expensive. Healthy foods (nutrient dense and fiber rich) fill you up. Slop(sugar rich, nutrient deficient ,fiber poor, and highly processed) doesn’t fill a person and short circuits the process by which the body lets us know that we should stop eating, causing us to feel full. So we eat more and more and then crave more and more. That can become expensive in terms of dollars spent not to mention loss of health...
@@brunoborer7038 Indeed, but now consider this angle; look into the dust bowl in the US and how they started using nasty fertilizer and pesticides which have entered the water table, so truelly healthy organic food is not really possible, healthier food is but 100% healthy? Very difficult.
@@zigziar I don’t disagree. If enough people become aware of how directly our major illnesses are related to what we eat and how often, the market will have no choice but to respond to a major shift in consumer demands. There will be more and more small farm operations specializing in healthy produce from pesticide and fertilizer free soil. If the big players can’t change their operating model, they’ll go out of business. Bad news for the big fellows, the food industry making the crap that sickens us, the medical establishment profiting off of our poor health, and the pharmaceutical industry that cries ‘wolf’ for every virus but remains deathly quiet about our toxic diet. If they can’t read the writing on the wall, they’ll be in the red soon enough. It all depends on us becoming aware and active...
NOBODY BLAME THE FOOD INDUSTRIES nobody , They addicted with sugar SUGAR SUGAR not FOOD , we are not eating anymore , the gouvernment should change the policy of FOOD INDUSTIES ,THEY ARE PROTECTING THE FOOD INDUSTRIES THE FOOD industries are killing HUMANITY..lucky me i able to quit sugar and lose 50ils .Now i could jogging at age 50 yrs. SUE food industies
This Christmas I eat lots of cakse, sweets, wine, fruit juices, and now I am in bed sick, and I woke up with a bloated abdomen, weightloss stopped and now I am heavier than at xmas.Normally I avoid added sugar as much as possible, and now I blame me sickness on the added sugars that I suddenly consumed over a whole week. Now I am going to ban all added sugar..for good.
What an excellent presentation! I have personally experienced not only the deleterious effects of excess sugar consumption but also the benefits of cutting sugar from my diet. I slept better, experienced a sharper memory, had improved overall mood, lost weight and, believe it or not, could see more clearly. These benefits were just from eliminating the most obvious sources of sugar (ie. donuts, chocolate bars, cookies etc.). Thanks for posting this video!
When you stop eating food with more than one ingredient, or that's in a box, and start making your own sauces, salad dressings, and seasonings, 20 grams of added sugar is actually very easy to do. I thought it would be far more difficult. I don't even add sugar to my oatmeal anymore. Takes time to get used to, but with fruit and nuts, it's not so bad.
Mash about 3 inches of ripe bananas and make it very soupy, then mix it into your oatmeal along with cinnamon and vanilla. That's not too much sugar. I don't eat oatmeal but I cook it for my husband.
I love these seminars. I'm thankful for doctors, like these, who will tell you the truth!! Yaaay for fruit! I'm watching this while eating blackberries! ❤️
Im glad I cut out sugar 4 months ago I feel much better and reverse my pre diabetes and lost almost 50 pounds and feel much better thank god 🙏🙏great video ..
I cut my sugar addiction five years ago. Took only three days of withdrawal symptoms. I firmly believe that the optimal sugar consumption is zero (0) - and given that I can have all the butter & bacon I care to eat, staying off sugar is easy. The temptation is gone, simply.
And the sugar content of processed foods is manipulated by the food industry in the same way the nicotine content of tobacco products is manipulated by that industry. In both cases the goal is to raise consumption to the level of physical/psychological addiction. At least the tobacco industry never pretends that their products provide nourishment. In this sense the food industry is just as deserving of exposure, criticism and a Surgeon General’s Warning on many, if not most, of their products...
Honey has many other benefits. Rule of thumb is that natural foods are better for you than processed foods. Fruit contains fructose but this is offset by the fibre in whole fruits. Honey kills bad bacteria in the gut and certain cancer cells. Of course, if you're using honey as a substitute for sugar but you put sugar on everything, you're going to eat it to excess.
@@Vasilia4 I don't eat antioxidants; I eat food. Avoid processed foods, stick to traditional diets, and you'll be fine. Ergo honey is good. Incidentally, honey has many health benefits and no evidence that it's bad for you.
@@MrMjwoodford Honey IS bad for you and the benefits are so marginal they do not outway the damage of the fructose. Fructose is poison for your body. Do NOT use it as a substitute for sugar, because it will do the same amount of damage. Limit your honey intake as much as you can. There are healthy foods that contain the antioxidants honey contains. Idk what "traditional diet" even means. Stick to a low sugar (and ideally low carb) diet. That includes honey
@@Vasilia4 I don't use honey as a substitute for sugar. I eat it when I feel like it. If you're eating either honey or sugar all the time, then you're eating too much of it. It certainly is not poison. It's been eaten as an occasional treat for thousands of years and it's ridiculous to call it poison. A traditional diet, btw, is anything your grandparents might have eaten and no modern processed foods.
My grandparents ate white rice 6-10 cups/day and they died of old age, 91 and no disease. My mom in her 60s and no diabetes, hypertension or whatever. I got NAFLD from drinking 1-2 can of soda/day + ice cream. I reduced my soda to 1-2 cans/month and still eat 3-6 cups rice a day and no more NAFLD.
I've read that natural sugars in fruits and grains are far less damaging because the fiber that is in these foods creates a slower absorption rate. Any other research on this ?
Grains(flour) are mainly starch (glucose) and fiber ,ie no fructose, whole fruit you chewed and swallow End up only a portion of sugar you got since you don’t typically “ground “ all of the fruit flesh like juice Machine does.
This is a great starting point for people.My only vice was always sugar and I'm getting a good handle on it. Stevia drops helped immensely! Thank you for exposing the myths - the food industry isn't stepping up, so thank you for doing it!
@@perry-6723 Cut out carbs, no bread, pasta, potatoes, no sugar, or starchy foods. Stop eating processed foods Don’t use vegetable oils, not canola, grape seed, no seed oils at all. Use coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil, butter, lard, or beef tallow. Eat beef, pork, chicken, and fish, eat leafy greens and bright colored vegetables most vegetables are good I don’t eat corn or carrots, or beans to many carbs. I started doing this after I was told I was pre diabetic my blood AC1 was 5.7 It dropped to 5.3 in less then 2 months, I started this in mid September and as of Christmas I’ve lost 55 pounds, you didn’t say you were overweight. So if you are not just cutting out sugar, starches, processed foods, and processed oils listed above & switching to the healthier oils that will help you
I stopped sugar and within a month had lost 15 lbs, my skin had cleared up, I was filled with energy and my triglycerides were normal. When I tell people I quit sugar they get quite angry. My theory is that almost everyone is an addict and they need their sugar desperately. If you even allude to quitting they get crazed.
The information was great to hear. Very realistic and achievable. Sugar is addictive without offering any benefits but it is present in so many manufactured foods using different names. Any ingredient ending in mose such as maltose or sucrose or a syrup ,corn syrup etc. should be avoided.
Just a note, the blood circulatory system only contains about 4g of glucose: Consider this; potatoes, rice, oatmeal, and other sources of carbohydrates will raise your blood sugar just as quickly as sugar. White Bread, for example, has 13 grams, and whole wheat has 17 grams of carbohydrates per slice. Carbs are converted almost immediately to glucose, by amylase, which is present in our saliva and digestive juices. I lost 80 pounds in 8 months by restricting carbohydrates to less than 30g/day. Just a note, the red blood cells and brain do require glucose. However, the liver produces everything the body needs through the process of gluconeogenesis.
if you wanna buy healthy food - you have to pay more money? This is ridiculous!! Healthy food is FREE!!!! It grows just on the ground!! JUST PLANT IT!!!!
Unfortunately, not too many of us can maintain a well-stocked kitchen garden. Ideally that would make us a dozen times healthier, but we just don't have that much free time.
Shobha Roy takes about a days prep to get your plot ready in first place, a couple of hours digging per year then on and then about 2hrs to plant seeds etc. Water more often than not comes from the sky. If you can't commit to say 15mins per week then you have other problems re good time management!
Nutrigrain bars were desert in basic training, people used to hoard those things in the barracks. It's insane to thing what people believe is healthy. Sugar sweetened yogurt, granola bars loaded with sugar, heck, some people even think honey is healthy.
Well, honey from the store is questionable but the honey bought from the farmer, yes I would say it's good. Not to eat it with the spoon but to put in a tea, coffe..why not. We are designed to want sweet taste...
I love to eat sweets but my Doctor advice me to lessen my weight I’m 77 years old I maintain my 120 lbs.but my blood pressure is high.. I m taking my tablets for my maintenance. Actually I don’t crave for sweets..love to eat fruit snacks. The discussions are important Thanks ..
I can't consume any refined sugar! It's like a drug to me. Messes with my cravings, mood and focus. Nope, haven't touched the stuff, accept accidentally, in the past 8 years. How does one accidentally ingest refined sugar? Labels are deceiving. You have to learn the many different names of sugar. Also, many companies sell out and add refined sugar to their products without a label change warning. So keep checking the labels now and then.
Either way, I can't eat it. I stepped on the scale today and realized I've lost 90LBS in the past 6 years and getting refined sugar out of my diet was the first step.
Really interesting stuff. I remember reading Dufty's "Sugar Blues," many years ago and being frightened by it. I'm currently rereading the less hysterical book, "Pure White + Deadly," by John Yudkin. I've struggled with trying to give up sugar for many decades. My mother binged on sugar, while pregnant with me and I ended up with Yellow Jaundice. Is there a connection to liver issues? This video seems in line with many of the recommendations by Dr Robert Lustig, including the issue of fructose in fruit etc. He also maintains that there's no harm in allowing ourselves a "sweet treat," once in a while and, I believe he allowed his kids one soda and dessert a week. Sounds like a sensible approach to me. I'm already following most of what I see in this video. I've given up sodas, sugared and diet varieties, both and juices and have stopped eating obvious sources of sugar, that is, breakfast cereal, biscuits/cookies, chocolate and desserts, but I am, allowing myself one sweet treat a week and to be honest, it always seems horribly sweet now. I'm not, at present, over concerned by the added sugar content of store bought products, such as soup and pasta sauce etc, or what there is in the odd dollop of mayo!
I drink water and black coffee and don't eat fast food on a regular basis. We actually make our own food from as close to scratch as possible. It is a little deeper than that.
We have never been natural fruit eaters all year round. Yes we should be very careful of the fruit we eat, some people really overdo the fruit thing. Fruit is seasonal and it's designed to fatten us up for winter or the season when food is scarce. Not in the supermarket all year round. And worst of all is the dried fruit, the dates, the dried grapes in all forms as they're all the sweetest and you can't stop eating them and the sugar is concentrated.
This is a Great Topic and I am learning something here today. Thank you for that. However, I notice that University Symposiums are always speaking of Studies In Progress and Incomplete Peer Review. It looks like endless research leads to Job Security. I am a High School graduate who was at the top of the bottom quarter of my class.
At our NMA Surgical Breakfast seminars we used to have a full breakfast available for attendees, bacon, eggs, oatmeal, yogurt, various fruits, coffee, tea, orange juice etc. Different strokes....
Oh: There's no way that these scientists will make me increase my sugar consumption to a whopping 9 teaspoons per day!! Not even if I count in non-added sugar.
Actually, it doesn't. Starches have been eaten by humans for HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of years with zero diseases. Starch granules have been found in the teeth of paleo men. Do some research.
@@mowthpeece1 If you've ever used a glucose meter, you'll see your blood sugar spike with a potato as high as it does with a candy bar. The body itself is the final arbiter of truth in this regard. I believe my glucose meter when it reads 180 after eating starch.
@15:43 thank you for saying that because so many people don't realize that just because a person is slim, it doesn't mean they're healthy. We need to have more public information like this geared towards ALL people, not just obese people.
Re: Brown vs. white rice- get a blood glucose monitor. Take a reading before you eat, at 30, 60 & 120 minutes. Then decide for yourself if brown is any better than white. The same process is good for any food. Some things that might not be too bad for one person, can be terrible for another.
According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the maximum amount of added sugars you should eat in a day are 9 teaspoons for men and 6 teaspoons for women. In calories It means 150 calories for men and 100 calories for women. No vitamins, no minerals, no proteins, no heathy fats... just 150 calories with no other nutrient than "pure, white and deadly" refined sugar : they can't be right! There is no need for added sugars in food, just eat real food.
Agree American Heart Assc. is not working for the patient, but teaching people to insure hey never go out of business. Funded by meat and sugar industry. See "What the Health"
@@meman6964 It also said that the American Diabetes Association is used to be funded by Coke A Cola, Kellogs and lots of other food companies that makes sugary food. Nice!
This is an excellent presentation on the impact of sugar intake on the human diet. I appreciate the accurate and critical reminders for consumers to be aware of the advantageous use of industry-funded research in advertising. 12/30/2015
Sugar seems to be the very thing that is causing a lot of BODY pain for me. And beer, and other carbs are just as bad. My abs and chest are hurt from eating a bad diet.
at 28:33 - Dean Schillinger talks about the additional sugar in breakfast cereal. Here is a sneaky way that cereal makers make you think there is not so much sugar in their products - they play with the serving size. Ex. Honey Nut Cheerios: serving size is 3/4 cup and has 9 grams of sugar; Multigrain Cheerios serving is 1 cup and has 6 grams of sugar; original Cheerios - serving size is 1 cup and has 1 gram of sugar.
Depends if you want it...I could sleep on a bale of tobacco and never once want to smoke it....same with candy...don't want it if it is free...you've got to not want it then it's easy....for that you need a strong core constitution....I choose my abs...I choose my lungs...I choose my grandkids...I choose health...it's all about choice
Its 2023- and I grew up addicted to sugar due to my father who treated us to giant bags of chocolate before every movie we went out to see. He was a movie junkie too. I just read that sugar is more addictive than cocaine. I tried off and on for decades to quit, but it was more for weight loss. I am 64 and now its for longevity and survival! I am 3 wks into almost zero sugar and I am having nightmares, headaches, anxiety and fatigue still. I dont drink alcohol but some days I feel hung over! This time I understand that the addiction to poison sugar can give heart attacks and destroy the immune system. I see that the buzz I got every morning in coffee was less about caffeine and more about the hit from sugar. I am hoping that after maybe 3 months or so my system will be adjusted and I wont feel so awful.
Sugar is a legal drug. It's administered to our family and friends via supermarket packaged foods, marketing and even nutritional confusion. Like any other drug, "using" or consuming too much of it is bad for you. Sugar isn't bad, too much sugar is.
YES, OMG sugar is addictive, and when I stopped drinking Coke Coke 20 years ago, it took me a week of huge headaches and feeling angry and frustrated. I have not drunk Coke anymore and I have continued the same behavior of taking things with sugar out of my diet a little at the time. Interesting enough, the best diet for a junkie munchie person like is me has been intermittent diet because it creates boundaries on constant eating (craving carbohydrates), and has reduced my craving. I think because I have eaten so much sugar in my life, I react to carbs a lot and tend to crave immediately if I had a day with a lot of carbs. And like an addict when I eat a more carb/sugar diet, I immediately loose interest in vegetables and food with less carbs with makes a vicious cycle. This love affair with sugar started when I was six years old and I have been working this addiction all my life. I started to reduce sugar forever since my children were born (23 years ago), and it will be with me for the rest of my life. I have bad relations with sugar and stress created this habits as a child. I have to add that I have never drank wine, beer, or smoke etc despite that I am from Argentina. I drink coffee with no sugar, and my diet has little sugar, but how many years it will take for me not to crave sugar (specially when I am tired or stress), a lot. The sugar affected my teeth, a lot. weigh watchers I did three times, and it does not work at ALL. I can give you the reasons but the main one is that WW does not address the addictive behaviors to sugar and carbs of their customers because they also sell you all their JUNK and make money from repeat customers. There is no mention of metabolic issues. I have started running everyday, and that has modulated my behavior toward stress and sugar more than any WW meeting “hands down.” Thanks @recreating60
Guys, if you crave sugar (a coke, a frappe, an ice cream etc.), just eat some fresh fruits and see if you'll still be craving that coke after. That's what I did and it works like a charm.
I have not had overwieght problems but I have never much liked sweet things, I don't know why, however I make cakes and love a slice now and again. I was drawn to your comment because I just love orange papaya, I buy it whole, peel it, deseed it, chop it up in chunks and store in the fridge. It is the most delicious sweet trip I can go on and no added sugar and loads of fibre. It is just natural fruit - I hope anyone battelling with a sweet tooth can get fresh papaya, but the orange coloured ones. Natural sweetness and just a couple of chunks does the trick. Fresh fruit in moderation without added sugar does exactly what my learned friend Radu has stated.

Fruits won't help you. Unless you want to add fat.
the only food items I could really taste while having COVID were highly-sweetened consumables, such as ice-cream, cake, chocolate bars, among other similar sweets. Since I was so fatigued to exercise, while eating ice-cream and cake, I put on weight. Now, that my energy has returned and I can taste non-sweetened foods, I'm hoping to lose those extra pounds.
Disappointing that Winco Foods and S&W foods are now putting sugar in canned beans. What are they thinking????? Check your labels again. They have changed ingredients on so many products.
at 48:00 I still confused on fruit and Dr. Schmidt's response - is too fruit that contains higher levels of sugar (pineapple, ripe bananas) harmful in quantities above moderation consumption for diabetes, obesity, or other possible health issues ?? She contained her reply only to cardiovascular disease.
This session is very meaningful and helpful for Diabetics .. Myself aType 2 diabetic patient.... Function of added and natural sugars are discussed in a vivid manner..... Fruit drink without Fruits....is an Impressive Finding..... Cause of Fatty liver is understood....and the role of rice is well understood as I am from India and rice is a staple food here .... Thank you for the Video..
In spite of the credentials of the panel, how can we trust the depth and independence of your presentation, when you present us with numbers from the American Heart Association which receives fundings from the major food corporations.
I'm really pro-artificial sweeteners. I use them a lot. But the problem is it's really hard to avoid to altogether! Slightly disappointed the lecture didn't cover sugar-blockers and how they can stop you digesting sugar (e.g. SucroStop).
When anything is marketed ie surgery products or margarine etc at industrial scale it become very difficult for consumers to distinguish what's good for them . I found spreadable Butter which contains oil in it so benefit of butter are Lost . One has to become proactive for theirs own Health . Thanks for your very Good Video hope people especially Younger Generation Listen and Enjoy Healthy Life .

It's actually pretty easy: If your food has a package that you have to read, put it down and back away from it.
wow that's powerful
your kidding right? Every bag of lentils I own has writing on it.

Totally agree with you. Also until there's a pharmaceutical drug to treat NAFLD physicians won't be testing for it as protocol. I only was tested because I requested it even though I had Metabolic syndrome my physician never tested me prior to me asking for it. Sure enough I have it. Then I had to do all my own research because all I was told was to lose weight!
I cut sugar and processed foods over a year ago. Although it had been 2 years since a dental visit, not only did I have no cavities, the hygienist told me I "have the gums of a 20-year old." I'm 59. Bonus, my A1C is 5.1 and triglycerides are 66.
4 years for me
Off added sugar about 8 months, still eat non starchy veg (starch is concentrated sugar)... lost about 50lbs, cravings for sweets, crisps etc 95% gone, feel healthier, eating nutrition dense, non-processed foods!
xeb, that's what I did and lost 60 lb in 6 mo
Good for you. I’m a senior but also active teaching and training in the martial arts but found it difficult to drop weight. Cut out sugar and processed foods and lost 30 pounds in a couple months. I think sugar and refined foods are responsible for more deaths than any virus past or present. More power to you...
I disagree with the doctor’s statement that eating healthy will have an economic impact because healthy foods are more expensive. Healthy foods (nutrient dense and fiber rich) fill you up. Slop(sugar rich, nutrient deficient ,fiber poor, and highly processed)
doesn’t fill a person and short circuits the process by which the body lets us know that we should stop eating, causing us to feel full. So we eat more and more and then crave more and more. That can become expensive in terms of dollars spent not to mention loss of health...
@@brunoborer7038 Indeed, but now consider this angle; look into the dust bowl in the US and how they started using nasty fertilizer and pesticides which have entered the water table, so truelly healthy organic food is not really possible, healthier food is but 100% healthy? Very difficult.
@@zigziar I don’t disagree. If enough people become aware of how directly our major illnesses are related to what we eat and how often, the market will have no choice but to respond to a major shift in consumer demands. There will be more and more small farm operations specializing in healthy produce from pesticide and fertilizer free soil. If the big players can’t change their operating model, they’ll go out of business. Bad news for the big fellows, the food industry making the crap that sickens us, the medical establishment profiting off of our poor health, and the pharmaceutical industry that cries ‘wolf’ for every virus but remains deathly quiet about our toxic diet. If they can’t read the writing on the wall, they’ll be in the red soon enough. It all depends on us becoming aware and active...
I am off sugar for a year now
Have you seen a dramatic increase in your overall health?
Hello ? year later updates ?

What an excellent presentation! I have personally experienced not only the deleterious effects of excess sugar consumption but also the benefits of cutting sugar from my diet. I slept better, experienced a sharper memory, had improved overall mood, lost weight and, believe it or not, could see more clearly. These benefits were just from eliminating the most obvious sources of sugar (ie. donuts, chocolate bars, cookies etc.). Thanks for posting this video!
Such information needs to be published in every way possible !
When you stop eating food with more than one ingredient, or that's in a box, and start making your own sauces, salad dressings, and seasonings, 20 grams of added sugar is actually very easy to do. I thought it would be far more difficult. I don't even add sugar to my oatmeal anymore. Takes time to get used to, but with fruit and nuts, it's not so bad.
Mash about 3 inches of ripe bananas and make it very soupy, then mix it into your oatmeal along with cinnamon and vanilla. That's not too much sugar. I don't eat oatmeal but I cook it for my husband.
This was 5 years ago. Awesome how this is truer today than it was yesterday!
I love these seminars. I'm thankful for doctors, like these, who will tell you the truth!! Yaaay for fruit! I'm watching this while eating blackberries! ❤️
Lots of great information here. As a Type 2 Diabetic, I can confirm, it's not great. Cut out the sugar and start eating healthy. It's worth it.
Im glad I cut out sugar 4 months ago I feel much better and reverse my pre diabetes and lost almost 50 pounds and feel much better thank god 🙏🙏great video ..
I cut my sugar addiction five years ago. Took only three days of withdrawal symptoms. I firmly believe that the optimal sugar consumption is zero (0) - and given that I can have all the butter & bacon I care to eat, staying off sugar is easy. The temptation is gone, simply.
Your bacon is made from sugar
i eat what ever i like......
No need to go to extremes. Sugar is a luxury that can be indulged in from time to time and in small amounts.
@@MrMjwoodford agree but the problem is it is addictive so you really need to avoid it at all
@@angelajackson7560 the problem, especially in America, is companies put sugar in things that aren't supposed to have sugar in!
yes sugar is addictive
Thnx for the simple answer! Lol conversation was interesting just long winded wow! Sugar is deadly!!
yes its a drug the gouverment stay quiet.
Addictive, ubiquitous, and delicious lol.
whatever, happened, to the consumption of caffeine , it use to be right, up there with sugar, what happened?
And the sugar content of processed foods is manipulated by the food industry in the same way the nicotine content of tobacco products is manipulated by that industry. In both cases the goal is to raise consumption to the level of physical/psychological addiction. At least the tobacco industry never pretends that their products provide nourishment. In this sense the food industry is just as deserving of exposure, criticism and a Surgeon General’s Warning on many, if not most, of their products...
I'm glad that they put in "added sugar" on the labels. I hope it's helped people know what's been tampered and what's not like it did for me

Honey is not complicated. It's about 40% fructose, vs 50% for table sugar (sucrose).
Do not use honey as a substitute for table sugar.
Honey has many other benefits. Rule of thumb is that natural foods are better for you than processed foods. Fruit contains fructose but this is offset by the fibre in whole fruits. Honey kills bad bacteria in the gut and certain cancer cells.
Of course, if you're using honey as a substitute for sugar but you put sugar on everything, you're going to eat it to excess.
@@MrMjwoodford you can get those antioxidants without eating honey. Honey is not healthy. You're better off not eating it than eating it
@@Vasilia4 I don't eat antioxidants; I eat food. Avoid processed foods, stick to traditional diets, and you'll be fine. Ergo honey is good. Incidentally, honey has many health benefits and no evidence that it's bad for you.
@@MrMjwoodford Honey IS bad for you and the benefits are so marginal they do not outway the damage of the fructose. Fructose is poison for your body. Do NOT use it as a substitute for sugar, because it will do the same amount of damage. Limit your honey intake as much as you can. There are healthy foods that contain the antioxidants honey contains. Idk what "traditional diet" even means. Stick to a low sugar (and ideally low carb) diet. That includes honey
@@Vasilia4 I don't use honey as a substitute for sugar. I eat it when I feel like it. If you're eating either honey or sugar all the time, then you're eating too much of it. It certainly is not poison. It's been eaten as an occasional treat for thousands of years and it's ridiculous to call it poison. A traditional diet, btw, is anything your grandparents might have eaten and no modern processed foods.
My grandparents ate white rice 6-10 cups/day and they died of old age, 91 and no disease. My mom in her 60s and no diabetes, hypertension or whatever.
I got NAFLD from drinking 1-2 can of soda/day + ice cream. I reduced my soda to 1-2 cans/month and still eat 3-6 cups rice a day and no more NAFLD.
Rice is life !
No...he didn't die of old age because humans can live to well over 120 years ...so imagine how long he could have lived with a more healthy lifestyle
I've read that natural sugars in fruits and grains are far less damaging because the fiber that is in these foods creates a slower absorption rate. Any other research on this ?
Grains(flour) are mainly starch (glucose) and fiber ,ie no fructose, whole fruit you chewed and swallow
End up only a portion of sugar you got since you don’t typically “ground “ all of the fruit flesh like juice
Machine does.
I stopped eating sugar about two weeks ago and already I feel better💪
Really?
Fabulous Panel. Thank you for this talk. Very thorough. Would love to hear even more in depth talk about this. It's important.
This is a great starting point for people.My only vice was always sugar and I'm getting a good handle on it. Stevia drops helped immensely! Thank you for exposing the myths - the food industry isn't stepping up, so thank you for doing it!

@@perry-6723 Cut out carbs, no bread, pasta, potatoes, no sugar, or starchy foods. Stop eating processed foods Don’t use vegetable oils, not canola, grape seed, no seed oils at all. Use coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil, butter, lard, or beef tallow. Eat beef, pork, chicken, and fish, eat leafy greens and bright colored vegetables most vegetables are good I don’t eat corn or carrots, or beans to many carbs. I started doing this after I was told I was pre diabetic my blood AC1 was 5.7 It dropped to 5.3 in less then 2 months, I started this in mid September and as of Christmas I’ve lost 55 pounds, you didn’t say you were overweight. So if you are not just cutting out sugar, starches, processed foods, and processed oils listed above & switching to the healthier oils that will help you
I stopped sugar and within a month had lost 15 lbs, my skin had cleared up, I was filled with energy and my triglycerides were normal. When I tell people I quit sugar they get quite angry. My theory is that almost everyone is an addict and they need their sugar desperately. If you even allude to quitting they get crazed.
me too
Mmmmm cake 🍰
Interesting , good in educating and help remove myths for gaining good health.This could be turning point for those who all want to be healthy.
The information was great to hear. Very realistic and achievable. Sugar is addictive without offering any benefits but it is present in so many manufactured foods using different names. Any ingredient ending in mose such as maltose or sucrose or a syrup ,corn syrup etc. should be avoided.
Excellent and well rounded presentation. Definitely encourages one to learn as much as possible about health effects of sugar. Thank you!
Just a note, the blood circulatory system only contains about 4g of glucose: Consider this; potatoes, rice, oatmeal, and other sources of carbohydrates will raise your blood sugar just as quickly as sugar. White Bread, for example, has 13 grams, and whole wheat has 17 grams of carbohydrates per slice. Carbs are converted almost immediately to glucose, by amylase, which is present in our saliva and digestive juices. I lost 80 pounds in 8 months by restricting carbohydrates to less than 30g/day. Just a note, the red blood cells and brain do require glucose. However, the liver produces everything the body needs through the process of gluconeogenesis.
Fantastic video. Why did so few people see it? I have been avoiding any added sugar and started a whole food plant based diet to reach that goal.
Thank you so much. I'm done with sugar!!
Studies on sugar, sponsored by industry, are 5 times (500%) more likely to find no problem with sugar...
if you wanna buy healthy food - you have to pay more money?
This is ridiculous!!
Healthy food is FREE!!!!
It grows just on the ground!!
JUST PLANT IT!!!!
+rospotreb pozor AGREED! AND NO CHEMICALS SPRAYED ON OUR OWN GROWN ORGANIC HEALTH FOOD THAT WE PLANT AND GROW OURSELVES :)
Unfortunately, not too many of us can maintain a well-stocked kitchen garden. Ideally that would make us a dozen times healthier, but we just don't have that much free time.
Being in matrix just consider stepping out of it for fresh air, then plant your seeds of choice. They will grow.
Shobha Roy takes about a days prep to get your plot ready in first place, a couple of hours digging per year then on and then about 2hrs to plant seeds etc. Water more often than not comes from the sky. If you can't commit to say 15mins per week then you have other problems re good time management!
Nutrigrain bars were desert in basic training, people used to hoard those things in the barracks. It's insane to thing what people believe is healthy. Sugar sweetened yogurt, granola bars loaded with sugar, heck, some people even think honey is healthy.
I love sugar going to be hard to handle
Sugar is what makes chocolate as popular as it is. Most who eat 100% dark would spit it out.
Well, honey from the store is questionable but the honey bought from the farmer, yes I would say it's good. Not to eat it with the spoon but to put in a tea, coffe..why not. We are designed to want sweet taste...
Honey has health benefits as do all fruits...it's the white refined sugar that's the killer not fructose(natural fruit sugar)

I can't consume any refined sugar! It's like a drug to me. Messes with my cravings, mood and focus. Nope, haven't touched the stuff, accept accidentally, in the past 8 years.
How does one accidentally ingest refined sugar? Labels are deceiving. You have to learn the many different names of sugar. Also, many companies sell out and add refined sugar to their products without a label change warning. So keep checking the labels now and then.
My favorite name for sugar is evaporated cane juice.
Either way, I can't eat it. I stepped on the scale today and realized I've lost 90LBS in the past 6 years and getting refined sugar out of my diet was the first step.
New Covenant Fellowship Congratulations.
thanks....
Windsor table salt has added sugar. Also you have to watch which creams you buy. I have learnt to always read the labels.
The best information I have ever heard thank you so much now I know what is my problem and how to take care of it
Really interesting stuff.
I remember reading Dufty's "Sugar Blues," many years ago and being frightened by it.
I'm currently rereading the less hysterical book, "Pure White + Deadly," by John Yudkin.
I've struggled with trying to give up sugar for many decades. My mother binged on sugar, while pregnant with me and I ended up with Yellow Jaundice. Is there a connection to liver issues?
This video seems in line with many of the recommendations by Dr Robert Lustig, including the issue of fructose in fruit etc. He also maintains that there's no harm in allowing ourselves a "sweet treat," once in a while and, I believe he allowed his kids one soda and dessert a week.
Sounds like a sensible approach to me.
I'm already following most of what I see in this video.
I've given up sodas, sugared and diet varieties, both and juices and have stopped eating obvious sources of sugar, that is, breakfast cereal, biscuits/cookies, chocolate and desserts, but I am, allowing myself one sweet treat a week and to be honest, it always seems horribly sweet now.
I'm not, at present, over concerned by the added sugar content of store bought products, such as soup and pasta sauce etc, or what there is in the odd dollop of mayo!

Well done wish i coukd too
Very informative! I’m detoxing from sugar asap. Thank you
Stevia seems to be a great natural table sugar substitute. It's good because it doesn't have that metallic aftertaste like the others do.
We have never been natural fruit eaters all year round. Yes we should be very careful of the fruit we eat, some people really overdo the fruit thing. Fruit is seasonal and it's designed to fatten us up for winter or the season when food is scarce. Not in the supermarket all year round. And worst of all is the dried fruit, the dates, the dried grapes in all forms as they're all the sweetest and you can't stop eating them and the sugar is concentrated.
This is a Great Topic and I am learning something here today. Thank you for that. However, I notice that University Symposiums are always speaking of Studies In Progress and Incomplete Peer Review. It looks like endless research leads to Job Security. I am a High School graduate who was at the top of the bottom quarter of my class.
The relationship between sugar and PH is the key! Acidic environments in our body creates toxins that cannot leave without help.

Oh: There's no way that these scientists will make me increase my sugar consumption to a whopping 9 teaspoons per day!! Not even if I count in non-added sugar.
There is honey fruits...
This applies not just to sugar, but to everything that turns into sugar after you eat it, i.e. all starchy carbs.
Absolutely! People don't realize how the body will process these foods! Our poor liver, heart, joints!!
@Steven Stolar Become a fat burner by adapting a keto diet.
Actually, it doesn't. Starches have been eaten by humans for HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of years with zero diseases. Starch granules have been found in the teeth of paleo men. Do some research.
@@mowthpeece1 If you've ever used a glucose meter, you'll see your blood sugar spike with a potato as high as it does with a candy bar. The body itself is the final arbiter of truth in this regard. I believe my glucose meter when it reads 180 after eating starch.
@15:43 thank you for saying that because so many people don't realize that just because a person is slim, it doesn't mean they're healthy. We need to have more public information like this geared towards ALL people, not just obese people.
Re: Brown vs. white rice- get a blood glucose monitor. Take a reading before you eat, at 30, 60 & 120 minutes. Then decide for yourself if brown is any better than white. The same process is good for any food. Some things that might not be too bad for one person, can be terrible for another.
According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the maximum amount of added sugars you should eat in a day are 9 teaspoons for men and 6 teaspoons for women. In calories It means 150 calories for men and 100 calories for women. No vitamins, no minerals, no proteins, no heathy fats... just 150 calories with no other nutrient than "pure, white and deadly" refined sugar : they can't be right!
There is no need for added sugars in food, just eat real food.
Agree American Heart Assc. is not working for the patient, but teaching people to insure hey never go out of business. Funded by meat and sugar industry. See "What the Health"
@@meman6964 It also said that the American Diabetes Association is used to be funded by Coke A Cola, Kellogs and lots of other food companies that makes sugary food. Nice!

Sugar seems to be the very thing that is causing a lot of BODY pain for me. And beer, and other carbs are just as bad. My abs and chest are hurt from eating a bad diet.
Trust your body.
Get healthy today...quit alcohol now...give up candy and cake...eat one balanced meal per day...it's a lifestyle not a diet
I need help to overcome sugar. So therefore I'm watching this presentation.
at 28:33 - Dean Schillinger talks about the additional sugar in breakfast cereal. Here is a sneaky way that cereal makers make you think there is not so much sugar in their products - they play with the serving size. Ex. Honey Nut Cheerios: serving size is 3/4 cup and has 9 grams of sugar; Multigrain Cheerios serving is 1 cup and has 6 grams of sugar; original Cheerios - serving size is 1 cup and has 1 gram of sugar.
Most people eat 2 cups each time; not 3/4 cup
Very informative .
Thanks to the Doctors team.
Extremely hard to avoid sugar,,,,,
Not at all. It's very easy. Just avoid food with labels and bar codes, eat meat and real food.
If a Donut cost three dollars we would buy less if they cost $10 we would buy none
Depends if you want it...I could sleep on a bale of tobacco and never once want to smoke it....same with candy...don't want it if it is free...you've got to not want it then it's easy....for that you need a strong core constitution....I choose my abs...I choose my lungs...I choose my grandkids...I choose health...it's all about choice

Its 2023- and I grew up addicted to sugar due to my father who treated us to giant bags of chocolate before every movie we went out to see. He was a movie junkie too. I just read that sugar is more addictive than cocaine. I tried off and on for decades to quit, but it was more for weight loss. I am 64 and now its for longevity and survival! I am 3 wks into almost zero sugar and I am having nightmares, headaches, anxiety and fatigue still. I dont drink alcohol but some days I feel hung over! This time I understand that the addiction to poison sugar can give heart attacks and destroy the immune system. I see that the buzz I got every morning in coffee was less about caffeine and more about the hit from sugar. I am hoping that after maybe 3 months or so my system will be adjusted and I wont feel so awful.
Sugar is a legal drug. It's administered to our family and friends via supermarket packaged foods, marketing and even nutritional confusion. Like any other drug, "using" or consuming too much of it is bad for you. Sugar isn't bad, too much sugar is.
No sugar no salt => no disease
If sugar is consumed moderately no health problems are faced rather it is beneficial.
YES, OMG sugar is addictive, and when I stopped drinking Coke Coke 20 years ago, it took me a week of huge headaches and feeling angry and frustrated. I have not drunk Coke anymore and I have continued the same behavior of taking things with sugar out of my diet a little at the time.
Interesting enough, the best diet for a junkie munchie person like is me has been intermittent diet because it creates boundaries on constant eating (craving carbohydrates), and has reduced my craving.
I think because I have eaten so much sugar in my life, I react to carbs a lot and tend to crave immediately if I had a day with a lot of carbs.
And like an addict when I eat a more carb/sugar diet, I immediately loose interest in vegetables and food with less carbs with makes a vicious cycle.
This love affair with sugar started when I was six years old and I have been working this addiction all my life. I started to reduce sugar forever since my children were born (23 years ago), and it will be with me for the rest of my life.
I have bad relations with sugar and stress created this habits as a child.
I have to add that I have never drank wine, beer, or smoke etc despite that I am from Argentina. I drink coffee with no sugar, and my diet has little sugar, but how many years it will take for me not to crave sugar (specially when I am tired or stress), a lot.
The sugar affected my teeth, a lot.
weigh watchers I did three times, and it does not work at ALL. I can give you the reasons but the main one is that WW does not address the addictive behaviors to sugar and carbs of their customers because they also sell you all their JUNK and make money from repeat customers. There is no mention of metabolic issues. I have started running everyday, and that has modulated my behavior toward stress and sugar more than any WW meeting “hands down.”
Thanks

Health Communication, sounds interesting. So does the consideration of life style factors and community challenges.
great video.....very informative.
Guys, if you crave sugar (a coke, a frappe, an ice cream etc.), just eat some fresh fruits and see if you'll still be craving that coke after. That's what I did and it works like a charm.
I have not had overwieght problems but I have never much liked sweet things, I don't know why, however I make cakes and love a slice now and again. I was drawn to your comment because I just love orange papaya, I buy it whole, peel it, deseed it, chop it up in chunks and store in the fridge. It is the most delicious sweet trip I can go on and no added sugar and loads of fibre. It is just natural fruit - I hope anyone battelling with a sweet tooth can get fresh papaya, but the orange coloured ones. Natural sweetness and just a couple of chunks does the trick. Fresh fruit in moderation without added sugar does exactly what my learned friend Radu has stated.
Fruits won't help you. Unless you want to add fat.
Hello Miss Barbara French. Good job for not having sodas in your home. Do keep that up. I'm also trying to be soda free.
the only food items I could really taste while having COVID were highly-sweetened consumables, such as ice-cream, cake, chocolate bars, among other similar sweets. Since I was so fatigued to exercise, while eating ice-cream and cake, I put on weight. Now, that my energy has returned and I can taste non-sweetened foods, I'm hoping to lose those extra pounds.
Just do fasting and then most type 2 and type 3 ( Alzheimer’s) Diabetes are reversible.
@Jimbo Jones Then either she ain't fasting properly or needs to fast for longer.
@Jimbo Jones Fasting in combination with Ketogenic diet is the solution. Search for Dr. Eric Berg videos in TH-cam...
@Jimbo Jones Then she is doing it wrong. Completely wrong.
@Jimbo Jones If your wife is gaining weight, she is not doing it properly.

Disappointing that Winco Foods and S&W foods are now putting sugar in canned beans. What are they thinking????? Check your labels again. They have changed ingredients on so many products.
at 48:00 I still confused on fruit and Dr. Schmidt's response - is too fruit that contains higher levels of sugar (pineapple, ripe bananas) harmful in quantities above moderation consumption for diabetes, obesity, or other possible health issues ?? She contained her reply only to cardiovascular disease.
This is excellent presentation, thanks a lot to all
This session is very meaningful and helpful for Diabetics .. Myself aType 2 diabetic patient.... Function of added and natural sugars are discussed in a vivid manner..... Fruit drink without Fruits....is an Impressive Finding..... Cause of Fatty liver is understood....and the role of rice is well understood as I am from India and rice is a staple food here .... Thank you for the Video..
So the advert before this was an advert for sweets 😂😂
I’m wanting sugar even before it gets started.
Besides the increase in sugar being a major reason, we have the lack of fiber and the lack of nutrients or nutrient accessibility.
Honey is NOT harmless, it‘s just 90% as bad as white sugar (sucrose)
Please provide your evidence! How much honey do you eat, daily?
I don't believe fatty liver or hypertension is a disease but a symptom of breaking the 6/9 rule of sugar consumption
In spite of the credentials of the panel, how can we trust the depth and independence of your presentation, when you present us with numbers from the American Heart Association which receives fundings from the major food corporations.
Thank you so much. It was very informative session.
I wish the guy had spoken more, he said some really interesting stuff, but the woman in the middle hoarded this debate.

When you make your own cookie or cake from scratch, you will know how much sugar you are putting in your body. Don't use cake mix.
I'm really pro-artificial sweeteners. I use them a lot. But the problem is it's really hard to avoid to altogether! Slightly disappointed the lecture didn't cover sugar-blockers and how they can stop you digesting sugar (e.g. SucroStop).
