I think the majority of people who use sweeteners are diabetic patients, and not many people use them to lose weight. Therefore, recommending only for short term is not going to help. Also, the study that Dr Pal mentions at 3:43 only deals with three artificial sweeteners (aspartame, acesulfame-K, and sucralose). I don't think there is any published data linking cancer to naturally derived sweeteners like stevia and monkfruit.
It’s really hard to drink or eat anything if I remove Stevia long term. I have Diabetes in my family so i avoid sugar as much as possible, but removing even Stevia long term will be painful and really difficult. With coffee, tea, and green teas, I need some sweetener. If I can’t even use stevia every day, then it’ll be really hard to live life.
Doc - i follow your words sincerely - 2 questions - 1. you mentioned what is the adverse effect in monk fruit subtly without actually what is that adverse affect - please say it 2. what is the cut-off to be defined as a long term -thank you Doc in advance
Hi @Dr Pal, Can you please share the risks and side effects of gallbladder removal. I am seeing a lot of videos in internet which are mostly negative. Would like to hear your views on it and any measures to take post ops for long term better health.
Great question. Doctors in India recommend removal of the gallbladder if possible laparoscopically. Doctors in the USA recommend to let the sleeping dog lie and go in for surgery only if it becomes absolutely necessary- infection etc. Because most patients will not have this emergency in their life time. The logic of the indian doctors is that if it becomes an emergency situation at old age or after diabetic or other situations arise, it adds to complications operating in that situation.
What about Diabetic and cardiac patients ? If they have cut down on carbs in their regular meals can they add little sugar in their daily (1 cup only) coffee
I used white sugars...switched to demerara sugar and then to mudcovado for sometime. Then my plant based physician asked me take Powder jaggery which i loved and now he asked me to go for date syrup or stevia. I need to confirm whether it's for long term or short term. I have severe B12 and D3 deficiency and am on treatment for the same.
Video is very helpful. Thank you for sharing this knowledge. We use no sugar Nestle coffee creamer. Is it okay to have zero sugar products like chobani yogurt or coffee creamer daily. Could you plz advise. Thanks 😊
Wonderful video as always. Does natural Brown sugar any good or its just marketing gimmick? I wanted to understand the impact of multivitamins supplement. Would you be kind enough to make video for that.
Brown sugar is slightly better than white sugar, as white sugar is calories with no nutrition white brown sugar has some level of nutrition in it. Similarly honey, jaggery etc all are better than white sugar but still harmful if not taken in moderation, they show similar insulin spike like white sugar
i have a doubt! does sucralose acts or fakes like sugar or trying to make believe it is sweet to brain by blocking sweet taste receptors something like that? like hallucination...

Hi Dr. Pal, Thanks for your continuous effort to knowledge people about the importance of healthy eating to support their health and longevity.

Also, if I am not wrong, as soon as our tongue senses the sweet it sends signals to brain and further communicate pancreas to secrete insulin despite any elevation in blood sugar levels especially with the case of natural or artificial sweetener. Would this lead to any sub cellular pathology and in turn manifest in to chronic metabolic conditions such as diabetes type 2 or any other hyper insulin related syndrome?
Hi Dr Pal,thanks for the amazing videos. Is it ok to take protein powders? I have tried many brands but I hate taking them as it’s too sweet for my taste buds. I recently tried a mango flavored protein powder which I like, however it has stevia, is it safe to drink them everyday. What is your take on protein powders?
I have this same question. I'm trying to decide whether to buy a protein powder with cane sugar or stevia. Think I'm gonna go with the organic sugar just to be safe. Not sure if stevia is safe for everyday use. In the video, he said definitely take stevia short term for a few months only.
