I've been four years of no sugar, no carbs, eating the KETO way along with IF and the benefits are truly amazing. I'm 72, take no meds, and feel as good as I did in my 30's!
Awesome results! Way to go.
Excellent 👍
What’s your Questfortruth though?
Congrats! I follow the same diet, im loving my results. I was 418pounds. Now im 190. Enjoying my best life!!! Hopefully im like u at 72!!.
There is carbs in vegetables, so you should say your carbs come from vegetables. If you eat fruit there is carbs and fructose in them. I never say I don’t eat carbs because I do eat carbs, but very low carbs. I am more a meat eater then anything else. Just had bloodwork and my triglycerides were 30. Best ever. My liver panel was great also. I do eat very little sugar, which is normally Coconut sugar, or keto sweeteners, which I try not to eat much of it. I’m happy with my body because I’m losing the inflammation that was in my body. Happy you are doing great with your journey.
11 months after watching this and staying on the no to low sugar diet I had my blood draw and physical results yesterday. Dropped fasting glucose from 112 to 91. Weight dropped from 193 to 170 pounds. Thanks for the great video and definitely a life changer!
Thanks for that. Exactly what I was looking for. A half a pound every week or two pounds monthly. Perfect. Slow but doable. I don't want to completely stop or really can't. I take honey daily because since I became 60 (65 now) I have pee issues😢. So I take a couple tablespoons of honey daily. No issues until I stop. So I have to be able to keep honey in my daily diet. So zero to low sugar for me. Medicine is truly our healing miracle path to health. Heres to alternative health vs western medicine
I'm doing that right now, then I have depression and anxiety which means that I don't eat as I should, I've lost a little over 10 kg = 22 pounds in 3 months
At 63 I felt now is the time to make changes. Your channel has done that. Went from 348lbs to 288 so far. No sugar for 4 months and feel great. Thank you.
I’m your age and just started to modify my diet having decided to lose weight and get strong and healthy. Rather than no carbs I stopped many of them eg bread, sweet fruits, chocolate, desserts, fruit juices and milk but I eat a small portion of white rice daily with meat, vegetables, eggs and yoghurt and most importantly I stopped snacking between main meals. I think the intermittent fasting is also really important. Early days yet but I’m over the withdrawals and the satisfying fatty meat dishes that I love along with lots of tea and water helped close out the sugar cravings. I still plan to allow for cheat meals and occasional beer but it’s an exercise in moderation and discipline having learnt to appreciate the importance of the lifestyle change. Sten’s videos have been incredibly helpful!
Wow! Congratulations!❤️
Well done, congratulations 🎉

If not... You'll get slowly, more and more ....sick.

Me too lol
Doc. you changed my life. 60 days in I lost 25 lbs., and have crazy amount of energy. I now have no desire for sweets, and it's actually easy.Thank you, thank you, thank you.
That is awesome, congratulations. I'm on day 7 and I have sugar cravings and a rubber taste in my mouth.
For how many days did you have withdrawal effects?
Did u stop eating fruit , berries, vegetables?
@@tombouchard1980 no not at all, just raw sugar and bread
Hello im on my second day without sugar . I start eat fruits and stop meat at all . I get my protein from other sorces. I hope i get result and loss weight
YOU CAN EAT SWEETS YAHAWAH🔥 CREATED ALL THINGS THE THING IS SWEETS/STARCHES HAVE TO BE EATEN MODESTLY BUT I HEAR STARCHES ARE MAN-MADE SIRACH 38:4
Been following you for about a year following your advice I have had my blood pressure has dropped to 120 over 70 and sugar levels are 80 to 90 in most mornings, have lost 60 pounds and feel really good now thanks for caring and putting out the information to help people like me.
How do you check your sugar levels?
I have not had a drop of sugar in 60 days, not even artificial sweeteners. Besides the miraculous 35lbs weight loss, I have noticed vast improvements in my physical and mental health. Of most note is the improvements in my gut health and the changes in my taste palate! Thanks for the information Dr Ekberg🤗
It's a great feeling indeed.
That’s crazy impressive I’m obsessed with fruits that’s where I get my sugar specially after I run
hi did you do anything else? Like eating less or doing workouts? And can i know how much you lost in the first 30 days?
That's amazing. Never in my life have I gone that long without sugar. I love fruit also
if you ever read this response: you can have sweetener, HOWEVER, there's an ingredient that you ALWAYS must look before buy: sodium cyclamate.... if the sweetener have it, DON'T BUY IT! ALWAYS LOOK for that ingredient before ingesting on restaurants, cafes, or buying on a grocery store... but careful, your tastebuds will be sensitive to sweet, so, you may have to start consuming sweet again slowly, so you don't overwhelm your taste buds and think it's too sweet hahaha...
now, speaking about sweeteners (talking of in liquid form), there are 3 kinds: those who are compatible with warm-only temperature, those who are compatible with low-temperature only and those who are compatible with any temperature... unfortunately, there's no way to discern this, only by trying each one of them until you find the perfect sweetener: WITH NO SODIUM CYCLAMATE AND COMPATIBLE WITH BOTH WARM AND COLD TEMPERATURES...
HOWEVER tho, i've seen that sweeteners (always talking in liquid form) that are no compatible with warm temperature, TAINTS the milked coffee with a whiter color, like it's not suposed to be there, another thing that i've witnessed is that if a sweetener it's too bland (or not too concentrated), it can modify the texture of what you're cooking or increase the liquid volume on your cup (it happened to me several times, and i had to look for a new brand, etc., it's a tedious process but i'm a sweet tooth hahaha).
also, stevia sweeteners in liquid form usually don't come with the ingredient i just talked about, but always look at the ingredient table.
another thing before leaving you (which is my case for being a sweet tooth xD ): IF i ever go out to have a coffee (which i don't because i also avoid sugar like the plague hahahah and sweeteners on those places also don't help), i'd have either a black coffee without sugar (which i still can't get use to) or a regular one with plain sugar.
try not to use sweetener in powder form at home.
i truly hope that these tips helps you out to find a new way to enjoy a sweet treat and coffee without the worries of the sugar intake, and also, a more fulfilling snack/coffee
i apologize for such a long post, it was the only way to explain everything and leaving you the best of an advice :D thank you for your time!
I stopped sugar for 14months now it’s been life changing ⭐️💜🙏
then what do u drink besides water not to feel dull about what u drink?
@@privatprivat7279 coffee, tea, lemon water, just don't do too much caffeine decaffeinated coffee is also a good choice
@@privatprivat7279 also avoid fruit tea try to drink only root and herb tea there are hundreds up on hundreds of tea types and are mostly healthy
@@privatprivat7279 I always find it bizarre when people don’t appreciate water, and want some chemical concoction instead. That’s an addiction too. If you are thirsty water is wonderful.
Thank you Freedomstar10 for sharing your great results and helping inspire others. That is so awesome. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
As a nurse I am in awe of all the clear cut information I have learned from you Doc👍❤️
Hello Ranjana how are you doing?
Thanks Doc, 3 weeks ago found out I had Type2 diabetes and an A1c of 12.4. You taught me to reverse the issue instead of medicate it. I never took their meds and fixed the problem with diet/exercise. Now I relentlessly monitor my blood sugar and blood pressure and they are both normal. Even stopped taking my blood pressure medicine. My follow up is going to be sweet lol.
I'm curious about that follow up. All my uncles and aunts have Type 2. My parents and I are the only family that doesn't.
Will like to show my extended family your comment to get them to understand to eat better.
How do you monitor your blood sugar?
Beautiful presentation, well articulated, easily understood, made complex easily understandable...
@@Mastabacc sorry, never leave comments so didn’t know you had a question.
As for my follow up, doc was amazed and in shock. He made the mistake of trying to keep me on blood pressure meds to protect one of my organs. My blood pressure was perfect. A lot has happened in my 8 months. I lost over 100 lbs. My heart is functioning at an athletes level. Bp is 107/64. Blood sugar is 70-80 usually. I jog 2 miles before I hike 60 more minutes 5 times a week. I’ve went from tight 44 waist 4 xl shirt to loose 36 with large to xl shirts. Give me your email if you want to show them before and after pics. They don’t have to jog, just walk on treadmill. I just jog for fun.
@seanshaw6311 we need a update
I have been sugar free for 3.5 years. I avoided most of the withdrawal symptoms by increasing my salt and electrolytes. I'm 72 years old and my health markers are excellent.
I did the same. Went keto/very low carb and suffered the first 2 days, until I realized that by adding a small pinch of salt even to my coffee and lemon water, the keto flu subsided and no more terrible headaches. I'd recommend that protocol to anybody.
@@1951mytube It's funny that you mentioned coffee. I wanted to cut out artificial sweetener. I can't drink black coffee without artificial sweetener....I hate it! But I CAN drink it with salt! 😁
Hello Leah how are you doing?
I'm trying to cut it out of my diet, it's hard tho it's literally everywhere
This was an amazing video. Perfectly timed for someone who pretty much lives on a never ending cycle of sugar. Thank you!
You and me both bro.
I eat a lot of sugar everyday, I drinnk 7-8 coffes every day with a lot of sugar, I eat a lot of chocolate every day and candies, for me is great, I love sugar
@@onlyromanian4002 You dont love it, your just an addict with weak self control.
and some shops try to force sell it at the till should be banned
Great thing to watch late on halloween night as i stuff my face with candy no one stopped by to get...
Your teaching have helped me a lots, before my sugar level was 8.9 but after listening from you and also fellowing your instruction, my sugar down to 4.9. And am still working hard to cut it down, I thank God for sending you for helping those who don't know where to start.
Thank you simple single for sharing your great results and helping inspire others. That is so awesome. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
I actually watched this video when it was new. I cut out all processed sugar from my diet about September last year. Lost a lot of weight. Got rid of gout which was making a mess of my body and limiting my mobility. Teeth stopped rotting and are just holding on now instead of getting worse. Dizzy spells and tingling in my fingers are all gone. Brain fog and lethargy are gone.
This is the best video I have ever watched. I am going to do everything suggested in this video and report the changes. You are an angel for the people who want to get completely healthy and help others. Love you loads for doing this service.
Great video! I am currently about 3 months into no sugar/keto. I am currently down from 255 to 200lbs at 6'0 tall. I found what really helped me star the diet was I fasted for about 36 hours before my first meal so the cravings were minimal. Cutting out sugar for 95% of the time for me has been such a game changer its insane.
I live on the other side of earth. I have lost about 40kg in 7 months, restored my health, reversed IR, hypertension, hyperglycemia, fatty liver G3, ... all thanks to your Wonderful presentation of knowledge and insight into human body functions and needs. Can never thank you enough ever. Wish you the best, and keep up this fine work. God bless you ❤️
I've only been off sugar 5 days and I already notice several changes. One being the way "hunger" has been modified. I do 16-20 hour fasts almost daily and I'm used to feeling serious hunger prior to my eating. Now is a little different and hard to describe but it's like this: I still "feel" that I am hungry when my fast is over (empty stomach, hormones signalling time to eat, etc.), but they don't "compel" me to eat. I can ignore them and not trip off it. These feelings are still real and they are there but its like I don't really care or don't feel like listening to them. In a way, it's subtle but in a way it's very powerful.
I’ve been off sugar for 2 weeks and feel this
Giving up sugar, every flour product, and pastas have made such a huge difference in my body and my life. I definitely went through withdrawals…those withdrawals will make you or break you!
Do you still eat fruit etc? Any yogurt?
I just quit only "added" sugars for 30 days and uploaded a video of my experience, but I had no idea honey and agave were so chemically similar. May have to try cutting out all the above. Incredible video, thank you for this!
Right I don’t eat sweets - but I just noticed from this that im so dependent on my honey . . I can’t imagine life without it in my tea and coffee .
Love what you said about health insurance vs health ensurance. This was gold, just like healthcare vs sickcare.
Love this thank you. God bless!
Reminds me a bit too much of people who say they don't need vaccines because they pray for god to protect them, believe earth is flat because they can't see it curve, believe moonlanding is fake, STDs only affect gay people, they were abducted by aliens in their sleep, and so on
@@aureliabackup7313 All of these are true except for the Earth being flat though.
I'm 66 and been on a keto diet for 14 days and what he is saying is 100% correct. Lost 10lbs, feel much better, look happier. First week had withdrawal but after that much better and getting used to decent eating, no sugar, no carbs.
keto is dangerous. just leave out sugar and stick to healthy stuff like vegetables, eggs, rice and potatoes.
Good for you!
Wow u lost 10lbs in 2weeks at that age? It's a good sign. Indicates that ur metabolism is good😊
I’d rather die happy.
@@TravisMcGee151 you don't seem to be having psychological issues with the way you look. A lot of people lose weight not only for health reasons but mental issues as well including me. So i would say I'd rather live happy than die dissatisfied with life.
One of the best yet ! I don't know of anyone that wouldn't benefit from watching and learning what I just watched. If you don't think sugar is addictive just listen to the people when you ask them to give it up, it's like talking to an alcoholic or drug addict.
I just started my no sugar journey. The hardest for me will be avoiding potatoes and rice, but I am determined. Starting out at 217 lbs. I'll give an update in 3 more weeks. On day 6 right now.
It's been 3 weeks. Where ur update ?
If you cut sugar out you can eat some potatoes and be just fine. Boil then fridge before eating for less effect on blood sugar
What are you eating instead of rice/pasta/potatoes? I tend to stay hungry if I don't have any of these
I lived in Spain for nine months and my diet was mostly meat and fish. And I lost a lot of weight and I had a lot of energy to walk from my apartment to office every day. That was like 3 to 4 kilometres every day.
UPDATE: 2 months in. 210 lbs!! BP used to be 150/100. Went to doctor yesterday for check up. 127/85. I have boundless energy and no longer feel hungry. Biggest surprise: I get full very quickly on OMAD. Sleeping well. People are telling me "You look so good". Not just weight loss, but skin too (surprised me). The key thing I am learning is that the body adjusts. We just have to give it a chance. This journey will only get better. Please ask questions, I will gladly answer them.
My story regarding sugar and carbs: last December (2020) I weighed 220 lbs, and my doctor told me I was prediabetic (A1C of 5.9). I decided I would exercise like crazy during my week off between Christmas and new years. I lifted weights and walked 27 miles in a week, but I was eating like I normally did back then--lots of carbs. I lost exactly no weight at all. At the end of January I decided to go low carb/high fat, keep up the exercise and do intermittent fasting. I then lost 30 lbs in about three months, and that's with the added muscle from working out. It was easy, and I really didn't feel deprived. Just as important was how eating low carb made me feel--the mental clarity and energy i experienced once I got off of sugar was really amazing.
Exactly like me, everything Dr Ekberg said happened, low carb high fat with moderate exercise just made me feel great, focus on my work, mental clarity, and weight loss of 10%
7 days in to my 30 day no sugar/keto diet. First few days were so tough with cravings but now I feel so much better!
I graduated w a degree in personal training and nutrition and still find it hard to cut out sugar so I commend you. I did it once for a week and never had so much energy but this fast paced life style makes it very hard especially living in the NY area it's crap food everywhere
@Claudia Zommernig Wait does this include sugar in fruits?
So does he mean no fruits (i.e. apples, berries)?
Absolutely loved how you used simple words and clear language to explain it this critical information for all. This will surely change many lives.
you see you see sugar addictions are real

Dr. Ekberg. I just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me. You allowed me to stabilize my body to become normal. I have lost 20 lbs in 40 days. I haven’t been this way for over 20 years. Thank you. Your knowledge is the most advanced and rational in the entire health care system. Thank you, thank you, thank goodness.

“...the effects of sugar addiction, withdrawal and relapse are similar to those of drugs of abuse.”
I have the same problem with coffee... I am addicted and can't give up. Specially Türk kahvesi. :))
You've obviously never treated anyone suffering from narcotic or alcohol abuse. No one ever had a seizure or died from quitting sugar.
@@jcarlovitch yea quitting sugar is difficult but not a chemical reaction dependency that makes you sick. Very tiny drop in comparison... basically I agree lol
For me it was the easiest thing to quit. I guess we're all different.
Thank You Seyhan Guneser. Right. We have to realize that when we refine food and especially carbs, we create drugs. 😐
New inspiration for me thank you! I’ve cut sugar so many times before but always go back to it.. feeling rubbish again having eaten 3 choc bars and wanting to sleep all the time. Here we go, wish me luck plse lovely people!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼💝
I recently did a no sugar/less carbs diet for 2 months preparing for a girl trip and when I say my body looks completely different .

what do you eat instead to get energy?
This mention about the few days withdrawal made me think about the time I quit smoking by simply quitting. 4 days of being a nasty irritated person, then the craving just kinda let go. 2 weeks and I was already annoyed by the smell of my own clothes. Bottom line, it does seem the brain reconfigures rather quickly, you just need have to have that dedication to your goal. No sellable product will provide this, it has to be your own will.
Thank You Pandabird. Very good points. The body/nervous system will rewire itself in a few days, but first we must want to change. 😄

Yes you have to want to do it and be in a mindful ready to do it place.
I actually cut most carbs a few months ago after seeing one of your other videos on how insulin works... All I can say is it has been a game changer. So much of my health is improved that I did not even realize that I felt ill until I was feeling better after cut the carbs. Amazing. I feel 10 years younger.
I wish it had worked for me, it gave me nausea and gastro distress. but I did lose some weight .. I may try doing a modified version of it !
What do you eat in a typical day :)
well, Ive been about 18th years of super less sugar. People see me now in 42 just like 20y something. This is miracles to know how much health my body is. Thank you Dr. Sten for sharing this. So many people around judging me because the way I am living
I’m 47 years old 5’ 9” weight 230 lbs I was recently diagnosed with pre diabetic with an A1C of 6.1 back on 30 August 2021. I decided to take this 30 day challenge on October 1st
By eliminating all sugar and most carbs. Intermittent fasting 16/8. Exercise 1 hour cardio 30 min weight training 6 times a week. No medication. And as of yesterday my A1C was 5.5 no longer in the pre diabetic levels. Obviously I’m going to continue eating low carb diet and transition to a Keto diet continue my 16/8 intermittent fasting and my exercise routine. I want to bring it down to 4.8 or lower and maintain it there.

Carbs feed your brain. There's a difference between white bread carb and whole grain carb.
@@nancylebeau4523 not this again! The brain works fines on ketones and if it needs it the body can produce its own sugar
@@nancylebeau4523 NO, your brain runs on ATP and oxygen, which your body will convert from whatever you put in your body to the best of its ability. Bread is civilization's oldest junk food. If you want fiber, a tiny bit of sugar, and vitamins and minerals, eat vegetables. If you want a ton of carbs which turn into sugar and creates a sugar spike in your system, with about as much fiber as a bowl of sugar cereal, then eat bread.
I'm starting my 30 day challenge to help my body start feeling better. Will keep you informed...thanks doc
What happened ?
Guess it didn't work out??
Thank Doc; you've basically outlined my whole problem. Hi 🙋♂️ my name is lee and im a sugar junkie. Not always by choice as it seems to be in every thing... as a trucker i will really need to be diligent in limiting my intake. Last year i got to 600 glucose levels.. my taste became bitter and vision was being affected. Im doing better each day.
You, sir, saved my life and you are the real superman!
I can't even explain how important those videos are... just unreal. Better than gold. I'm so so grateful that I see this...
Been doing this for a year. Lost 50lb and put on a great deal of muscle. The only exercise I do is moderate paced walking. Every single organ has improved by measures of magnitude like a fountain of youth. I am 50 years old and have a six pack again. I can't wait to see what next year brings.
What's the average distance you have been walking per day?
outstanding
You got muscles from walking? ROFLMAO!!!! Your upper body must be the size of Arnolds >
do you eat carbs? in order to gain muscle you need carbs but if you just lose fat to let your exisiting 6 packs to show up, then it's not really put on a great deal of muscle.

Getting enough of these fats on a regular basis is especially important for people with diabetes, who have an increased risk of heart disease and stroke. Wish you best.
this is actually a lot more educational than i thought it would be, thanks for the info.
I started doing LCIF last month and lose 22lbs with exercise. No longer addicted to rice and bread but addicted to your videos. Thanks! 😊❤😅
I stopped eating sugar for over a year and I lost 20 lbs. I walked a lot (5 miles a day) I slept better and in general, I felt terrific. I’m 76 years old and feel 30.
OLD HAG😡😡😡😡😡 UGH IM SO ANGRY
You look young too
Hello Sally how are you doing?
Great Testimony !!
I am 30 and feel like 70 😓
This information or exact video needs to be part of core curricula in all public schools and possibly work training. This information needs to empower people and needs to be out there in front of eyes everywhere.
Great job.
Why isn’t it out there?
I agree 💯%, but right now there is more of an emphasis on gender identity, recognizing unconscious bias and critical race theory 🙄
no, i love my sugar
I just stopped four months ago. I've never felt better in my life.
Tack Doktorn! Jag har undvikit alla sötsaker i en vecka nu och känner mig redan piggare. Men, efter att ha sett denna så ska jag helt utesluta mjölk i kaffet och grädde i maten. Ska även utesluta det mörka brödet, pasta, ris och potatis. Den här videon var verkligen en ögonöppnare. Kanske kan även min kroniska rinit lindras, den blir avsevärt värre på våren.
Tack än en gång!!!
i would also mention that sugar also deprive you of vit b 2 and b6 if am not mistaken and the most important part is that it actually weakens your immunesystem
I’m starting to think it also causes phlegm and congestion because I can breathe so easily now (and I didn’t even know I was having trouble breathing before). 🤷♀️ But now it’s so clean when I do breathe. I’m only nine days in now, can’t wait to see what the future will be like.
@@stockinettestitch hi, just a thought. Dairy products increase mucus, phlegm, congestion. Have you given up dairy / dairy based products without noticing? Milk was listed as the primary culprit. Congrats btw. I noticed DEEP clean / clear breathing when I stay on a plant & raw based diet.
Hi Doc, I am from India. This is my first time watching you. It really opened my eyes to reality. Thank you so much. 😊
I’ve lost 25 in 3 weeks by implementing what I’ve learned for Dr. Ekberg. And I feel 20 years younger!!! Thank you for your videos. They have changed my life!!!
I thought I was the only one! I dropped 50 pounds in 6 weeks! We’re in line with each other! Way to go!
@@bearbear4030 That's amazing. Did you basically do keto? Strictly?
@@bearbear4030 yeah :) what did you follow specifically
Dr Sten I am so glad that I found your channel.
I have been an addicted to sugar my whole life, but I have made a decision that sugar won't control me ever again.
So far so good, I am not eating any sugary foods for one month now.
I can already feel and see the difference.
It is shocking, how ignorant we are about this poison called sugar.
With gratitude!
Best Wishes from UK.
I find this video to be sweeter than the actual sugar 😆
You are about to enjoy those sweet sweet youtube likes with this early comment.
Thank You saint limin. Sweet 😄
What bout fruits?? I can’t eat fruits like grapes,blueberries,mango etc whatever?? Is that count as eating sugar?? I don’t wanna gain💔
Well...these videos are addictive!
@@lilbigman00 Dr Ekberg has stated in other videos that berries in moderation are OK. He even ranks all the major fruits according to sugar content and glycemic indices. Veggies too.
This is so relevant for me. I'm diabetic and have reduced my sugar intake more than 90% and never noticed a difference except in my A1C numbers. A few days ago I made a carrot cake, just because I wanted a carrot cake. The next morning, after eating a couple pieces of carrot cake the night before, I felt depressed and didn't sleep well. I haven't felt a physical depression in years. I called my neighbor and sent here the remainder of the cake. That was such a revelation as I had never associated previous feelings of depression with diet.
The mind follows the gut. Poor gut health had me in the dumps and in a bed for almost 2 years.
i Normaly bake banana bread od banana muffins, with nuts, very ripe bananas with black spots, oatmeal flour and cinnamon its yum
Now your neighbor is depressed and can't sleep 😨
I didn’t had sugar for a month, honestly it felt great and I lost 10pounds!! I gained it all back because I wanted to eat chocolate cake sooo bad. I am still going to give up sugar. Wish me luck!
Good luck! I’m giving up sugar tomorrow, I feel so much better without it
Moderation is key, abstaining and binging cycle isn’t good
Good luck to you, I am a big sugar eater so my plan starting now is I will start with fasting cutting out a list of food just eating natural for 30 days also COFFEE is a big monster I get bad headache every time I stop drinking it, hope this will help me with my arthritis.
@@jwballer6 some people can’t moderate certain things. So for them abstinence is key. Each to their own
Good luck but what happened to your ensurance? 😉🤣
I did no sugar for 40 days and physically and mentally I felt good and also lost weight. Sadly after my 40 days I gained the weight back. Very disappointing. I will start my journey again🙏🏾
I have been doing intermittent fasting for almost an entire month! No sugar and very very low carb intake. Our daughter’s birthday was on Wednesday and I decided to be polite and have a small piece of her birthday cake with the family and I didn’t even like it- it was too sweet!
Is eating only complex carbs good? I've given up sugar, simple carbs, and any sugar replacements as I just use a banana in my smoothie.
Thats amazing isnt it? I did the same thing one time. Lol
@@lachlanB323 your blood glucose spikes up more by eating a banana than eating a Hersey chocolate bar. Not kidding here. If you are concern about sugar intake, skip the banana;)
@@TheHoth1 I'm not no sugar lol. Your body needs sugar. I'm anti added sugar. So I can eat as much fruit as I want! I'm also anti-Simple Carbs as they're so bad for you! But I eat a lot of Complex Carbs like wholegrains. So I can eat things like potatoes, certain bread (Wholegrain. NOT white bread as that's simple carbs.), Peanut Butter(There's no added sugar Peanut butter!) etc. I've never felt better.
@@TheHoth1 Btw the sugar is naturally occurring in Bananas.
What surprised me the most is the change in sense of taste: I notice sweetness in things I never thought to be "sweet" like normal white potatoes and peanuts :)
Same! 😊
Had a similar response after I got onto making and drinking milk kefir using the live cultures. After drinking mild greek yoghurt for months, regular milk tasted sweet. Haven't enjoyed 'soda' for a few years now.
I just don't want that stuff anymore and pass right on by it like it's not there on the shelf at the store. Easier when it's just you though. I can see why it's so hard on mother's trying to get their kids to eat healthy snacks and not a bags of chips or candy. You have to make fruit fun to eat I guess.
I was about to say the same thing.
@@SherylinRM indeed, same with wiped cream, without sugar obviously :).
I’ve done it twice and lost 30-35 lbs in 2 mths. No carbs made me light-headed and tired for a mth. After a 1.5 mths, I didn’t need it anymore.
You never eased into it which is why you lost all your energy for that month. Also puts you at a higher diabetes risk. It takes 1 full year of transfer to work properly. But then you have the problem of energy boosts which you will not get without sugar or caffeine.
@@lextacy2008 I love potatoes, bread, rice, and noodles. It was really hard. All I ate was chicken, fish, fruit, nuts, and nothing fried. Lots of cardio and lifting. As I said, after about 2 mths, my body didn’t crave it. It was for the military. I got most of the weight back bc I didn’t have to make weight anymore. Taking starch out of your diet is really hard but definitely doable. I probably need to do it again.
@@lextacy2008 i did keto for 30 days.. i lost 15 lbs. But i was dizzy... no energy.. tired.. headaches... i stopped it after the 3-4th week... no thanks. I can lose weight just cutting calories and walking 3x a day for 30 min.. lost 50lbs doing that. Didnt look at carbs of fat or anything.. just ate steaks.. burgers.. lizza.. anything i normally do.. minus sodas i stopped those ages ago for setlzer water.
People just want a easy way to diet and lose weight without working out. Keto did it for me.. but those side effects.. no thanks. What interesting is aspartame in zero sugar drinks. Also makes ne dizzy.
1 or 2 ill be fine. But a 12 pack in a week or less.. I got WAYYY dizzy and i thought i was very sick.. aspartame is some nasty stuff.. went bsck to just seltzer water and the dizzyness stopped
@@jeepsblackpowderandlights4305 Hey your plan is exactly like mine! I replaced sodas with mostly seltzer waters, vitamin water,sparkling ice, ect. Still eat what I want, but I throw in a banana to fill up quicker so I stop snacking too much for the night.
I cut out sugar around March as part of intermittent fasting and exercise and took off 25 pounds. Last month I had my teeth cleaned (every six months). My dental health is good with minor inflammation. For years and years, the hygienist always started with manual work then would switch to the ultrasonic which would take about a half hour. This time the hygienist noted that I had NO inflammation at all and started the manual cleaning. In less than 10 minutes she asked me what flavor polish I wanted. She said my teeth and gums were in great shape and no other cleaning was necessary. I'm 68 years old btw.
I've noticed my mouth looks and feels cleaner since cutting out sugar and lowering carbs.
Op😅p😅
Terrific explanation!! I CAN DO THIS!! Thanks, Doc!
What happens when you stop all sugar (and artificial sweeteners) for a month? In mid-July I was diagnosed with T2 diabetes. I also have RA. In 4-5 weeks, my CRP level went from 16+ down to 9.1, and A1C from 9.1 down to 7.5. In just a month! The chronic diarrhea I suffered from is gone, completely gone. (That was the aspartame) And another month later, the A1C is now 5.8! I feel great. Although I had to go through sugar withdrawal with annoying headaches, it was well worth it. And not least, I lost 7 pounds as well, though I had been dieting anyway, so this was real fat loss and not water bloat.
Wow 😮 👏🏼! 9.1 to 5.8 in two months! My doctor will only check my A1C every three months!
@@renpilak6048 Really no point in checking A1C any earlier than 3 months, cause it takes 3 months to replace the old red blood cells, which carry the sugar in the blood.
Not sure what any of that first part means, but, it really sounds great.
Too awesome on the A1C drop!
@@emom46 C Reactive Protien is a test for inflammation. You want it between .5 and 2.0
Just got diagnosed T2D. 5 days into no sugars and carbs. Feel great with much less hunger and mood swings. Days 2 was the only hard one since I wanted bread. Great video and advice. Thanks Doc.
Blood sugar level down ??
@@storageinvaders7029 Absolutely. I started with a fasting glucose of 159 almost a month ago now. Today, I wake up with around 125 due to liver making glucose, not food intake, then I fast for about 15 hours and after each fat and protein only meal, it drops to around 115 and then 109. Then I go to bed and it rises again overnight. I'm waiting till the cells get less insulin resistant so my morning levels drop. But apparently I hear natural higher levels not food induced do not cause disease. The diet advise from Doc saved me.
Dr. EKBERG,
I TOOK THE CHALLENGE AND i
Must not only thank
You, but rather feel
Blessed for having
Met you.
I shall never eat
Sugar again in my
Life.
Thank You Richard Chikhani. Good for you 😄
As a sugar addict myself it's easy for me to quit sugar and not buy it when I'm in the store. The problem comes to exposure at home, I see sugar everywhere becuase family doesn't want to stop buying sweets.
This is true for me too, or so I thought, because the few times that there truly isn't sugar at home, I end up buying it after all. It's quite vicious
Well maybe you're going to have to LIE a little bit. And tell them you think you're having an allergy and you can't really join them. Families can be a bad influence
Absolutely... if I have any sugar or carb-laden foods in my home I am sunk and will binge until they are gone. I have to win the battle at the grocery store! LOL
Friends, you can! Do not give up! You will not miss it after the 4th week with zero sugar. You will never regret that you did it! Be happy and healthy! I am sending you my love!
Now that I watched this I'm going on a run real quick, see ya guys.
😂😂😂
Just came back from mine
@@aashishdongre might be the longest run in human history🥴🐻
well after a month without sugar, I lost about 15lbs, my ravenous cravings stopped, and I feel great. The first week was terrible, the second week was bad but not like the 1st week and now I feel amazing and am about 30lbs downs after about 2 months or so with no exercise (still active just not a lot of exercise).
Way to go! I am closing in on 50 pounds lost. Had a setback, but getting back on track. I feel so much better when I stick to it (no sugar, low carbs).
Fantastic job! I hope to do the same. Do you still eat fruit?
@@christinefyffe2115 i’ll eat some blueberries and strawberries here and there but not a lot when I do, maybe a small handful of blue berries or 3 or 4 strawberries depending on size.
@@mrfunkybassist congratulations!
Can I ask you what exactly you took out of your diet to have such a good success ? Thanks !!
@@lulufiedler9090 i basically went keto, removed carbs as low as i possibly could go. and increased fats. I started slow also when it came to getting into keto, started with low carb and then worked down to as little carb as possible. I also used intermittent fasting (mostly fasting breakfast).
I stopped completely sugar almost 4 weeks ago. The results are mind blowing 😮. I feel better then ever, lost 5 kilos, no pain during my period, no bloating, feel happier, reduced appetite, skin looks younger… I am speechless 😊 I love it ❤️

And yeah you dont want to become a diabetic at a young age. It sucks
@@CesarSandoval024 swear to god u gotta change your ways before it’s two late once you get diabetes you can’t go back to how it was before
ngl takes a lot of will and resolve the first few weeks but after you're done with cravings and withdrawals you coast and feel great. You can ease up back into things you like without overdoing it, just watching out not to teach your brain to become addicted again 😅
I quit sugar back in October last year, immediately noticed the weight loss and most importantly my depression went away, never being in a better mood than throughout this year.
I've eased up into things that I like, like the occasional burger every couple months, no fast food, only craft tho, and coffee only black with no sugar, and this was the hardest because I used to only have those macchio-frappa-crappaccino sugar bombs all the time.
@@PemaMendez990 for me not eating sugar doesn’t faze me. Idk what it is.. I don’t crave it or anything. I’ve been working out so I haven’t really aint any sugar in like 2 months
I've been off sugar for 6 months and only use stevia or sugar alcohol and keto foods and drinks. I have lost 25 lbs and feel great.
Många tusen tack till Dr. Sten Ekberg för alla hans intressanta och lärorika videor ! Hjärtliga hälsningar från Jan Eklöf och Stockholm.
Great video! I kicked the refined sugar habit for about a year, years ago, and am trying to do it once again. This video provided a lot of good information.
It’s a life changer AND literally one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. It was f’n brutal. Happy Friday!

Thank You BookOfGenesis. Sorry for your loss, but you have the right attitude. Life will always throw us curve balls and we will take detours. The more firmly we develop our understanding and our knowledge, the quicker we can get back on track. Best of luck. 🙂
@@drekberg what ive been trying and failing and trying to get off sugar and carbs so many years that I feel like giving up. Yoyo over and over again. Social events I physically can't control myself around food.
Sorry for your loss
Did it for 6 months. Lost weight, more natural energy and not as foggy. I even noticed it easier to control my emotional range. I was also in a keto based diet so I'm not sure what crossovers there were. Overall, never felt better in my life. 40 years old btw.
I have cut my sugar intake down to minimal levels 11 years ago. I was a sort of reborn. All Dr. Ekberk is saying here, are perfectly true.
Thank you Dr. Eckberg for this rather profound lesson!
Lost 30 pounds, now I’m on my proper weight and this is all it took. I find it insane that everything that you’ve said and all the reactions you mentioned eventually happened. The difference between how you feel is fantastic.

I’m going to try this challenge . I’m 22 years old I’m addicted to sugar and carbs. I used to be overweight I weighed 226 pounds 4 years ago now I’m currently at 180 I’ve hit a plato and can’t lose the last 20 pounds! I currently weight train 4x a week and do 20 min cardio sessions after. I’ll try this and update you guys after a month. Wish me luck. This is my last resort to lose thar remaining fat i have
Congrats on your weight loss. That’s a big deal!! I am on my weight loss journey as well.

Thank u so much. I have learned so much from u. What a blessing. I’m trying so hard to quit sugar, it’s very hard for me, but I get encouraged when I watch your channel. U are giving the public so much knowledge and information about the human body. I am very blessed to have found your channel. Thank u from the bottom of my heart
When I started the keto diet and did IF, I had intense cravings for sugar and chocolate altho I didnt consume that much but after about a week doing IF and worked my way up to 16 hours without food..
The cravings went away.
Now I do eat organic dark 82% cacao bitter sweet chocolate and have walnuts with pink salt.
Mind over matter ...👁️
Don’t give up! New beginning !🌹
Just cut sugar and exercise more. Puls max 125. Cycling was best for me.... I was there and sending you love and strenghts!
Thank you Dr.! I didn't realize I was slowly adapting my body already to not need so much sugar. Before I knew the science from this video I told myself as a fast food "addict" if I had cravings I could not control I would not get the fries or the soda if I found myself at a fast food restaurant when I couldn't/didn't feel up to cooking. I did this for 1 year about 10 years ago and was so impressed with the results between having just the entree for cravings and trying to get as much home cooking in as possible I stuck with it and couldn't be happier! Now I am really cutting back on fast food in hopes to reduce my triglycerides (363, 30yr old male with diabetes in family :( )
No softdrinks/soda, packed juice/drinks since September 2009...These drinks are too sweet for me already and I can;t even have a sip of sparkling water. I feel like getting a toothache when I have a sip of softdrinks. I totally agree with him.
This is probably the best TH-cam recommended video I have come across thus far. And I think we all know how whacky that gets.
I've removed sugar and processed food from my diet completely. I've added rice to some of my meals for texture but over the last four months I've dropped 48 pounds. My last Dexa scan showed my last 10 pounds lost was fat. I gained 2 pounds of lean body mass. It changes things.
Hey Russell, that's great - congratulations! Where did you get a Dexa scan? From a doctor, clinic, or private pay? Thanks.
@@dianavp9054 private pay center. This was my second one.
That’s amazing! Congratulations!!
Hi..can I ask what substitute foods you used instead of your usual meals..thanks.
The reason for this is that you replace the calories you previously got from carbs with other ones, likely protein more than fat. Protein makes one feel full longer than carbs do, hence you eat less. It has nothing in and of itself to do with low/no-carb.
I stopped eating sugar altogether and reduced alcohol consumption to just 1 or 2 times per month. I'm 43 now and I haven't felt this good since I was a teenager. Not sure if quitting sugar or reducing alcohol had more health benefits but something tells me its the sugar.
I fasted for 24 hours at the start of this week. Then ate only protein that night and then ate dinner the next night again mostly protein. It was like a 2 day detox and I totally relate to all the benefits. By the 3rd night my energy had spiked and now I'm able to do stuff with my kids, not get tired, and it feels like I spent my last 6 months of work in a brain fog. Now if only I could get my wife to cut it out, but she still thinks fats are unhealthy from all that Low Fat marketing. :( :( :(
Be careful that she doesn't keep going on with a low fat diet, not eating enough fats can contribute to amenorrhea.
That whole low-fat and zero-fat marketing has only increased carb consumption and cravings in people.

@@marcosgarcia-3696 Wouldn't he make people cut out beans for this challenge? Or are we allowed to eat beans?
Well, back on the days my father was always against sweets for us kids. He only allowed us to have one lollipop a week, so we wouldn’t get addicted to sugar. Nowadays, I thank him. Eating cake is a struggle for me. Coffee? No sugar always.
