I gave up all sugar many many years ago. Everything tastes so much better. Now I can’t stand anything sweet, no sweeter than carrots which I must have for my eyes.
Aww the daughter is cute I’d hate to deny eating something she made. What I would do if it were me is get some veggies and make a tray with those or arrange them into a shape or animal on a plate and let her eat that. 😊
When you’re trying to eliminate sugar, the best thing that works for me is knowing that I’m feeding the parasites. And then I kind of lose my craving for the sugar. Just a tip that works for me. Thank you Doctor for the videos they’re awesome.
While on this diet my wife acted like it made her life harder. I just had to tell her, "You guys eat whatever you want. I will take care of myself." The worst time for me was at the three or four day mark... once I got past the first week, it got way easier.... at one point we went to a BBQ where there was corn on the cob. I thoughtlessly grabbed some and took a bite.... it literally tasted like candy! And I said, "This is the sweetest corn I have ever had!" My wife told me, "Really, its okay I guess, but its not that sweet to me." Then it hit me, "Crap, I'm not supposed to eat this." I threw it away.
Hi! I'm a med student currently studying metabolism. Do you know if using vitamin C and taking vyvanse/elvanse around the same time causes vyvanse/elvanse to not work as well/decreases the half-time of dextroamphetamine because vitamin C activates dopamine beeta-hydroxylase so more dopamine is coverted into norepinephrine? Sorry for such a random and spesific question...
I have actually found that to be true. If I eat things with any vitamin C, I can tell a difference. I asked about it, and supposedly, things high in vitamin C are known to cause a problem, and it was suggested that things called "good source of vitamin C" aren't that high, like bananas. When I simply had it with protein, it worked better and faster. Another thing I noticed, if I skipped breakfast and took my Vyv on am empty stomach, it felt like I was a bit "wired"... Jittery, too much energy. Once I ate lunch, I would settle down and be able to focus. If I waited until after 2 to eat, it felt like I had just taken my meds, and I wouldn't be able to sleep until 2-4 in the morning.
my youter sister stuffed herself by brick cleaning with sugar. she (lesrned to home borning leader on human med uni) said because i need already wath burn not only wath make the burning...
There are studies that show keeper blood sugar high is good for ADHD. One with ADHD should slowly sip on a sugary drink. Drink it slowly. Also through a straw to avoid teeth decay. I did this for one day and it seemed to help me stay focused and motivated. I want to know what a thirty day experiment would do to you.
When my oldest son was younger and in elementary school he was diagnosed with ADHD and some other things. One of his teachers asked me if it was ok to give him a little cup mountain dew. I said sure, why not.....we've tried many things. It actually helped calm him down. Then we put him into sports which also helped immensely.....to the point he didn't need meds anymore.
This shows me that Genetics are dominant in your scores- You "cut it out" went thru the pain, did come down 8 percent, buit not what hoped for- 1) nI have a cereal in front of me with 44g of carbs, only 5 g of sugar- did you eat "carbed" zero "sugar foods"?
Maybe takes steps to steer her away from sugar. Take the bull by the horns, easier to re adjust the taste buds of youngsters. By "no sugar" are you saying you avoided processed foods? OR did you also cease eating hi GI foods fruit, grain etc??
Sorry, turned the video off right when you said you’re including fruit. I’m not trying to demonize fruits but they are NOT KETO. By all means eat fruit if you want, I’m not saying there’s any problem with that, but it’s NOT SUGAR FREE.
He didn’t say Keto for thirty days. I assume he’s trying to follow advice from Dr Lustig which would exclude pretty much all sugars except for the ones in fruit and veggies. Also some fruits are keto friendly. I eat blackberries all the time on keto
Along with sugar, did you also reduce your carbs? Sounds like you need more education on nutrition. Research Keto and what no sugar, low carb, high (good) fat diet can do for your metabolic health.
I did it for 3 months but after the hyper focus went away I went back into my binging habits. But I'm also unmedicated so controlling the cravings are so hard :(
this is the most textbook video of what to expect. You are great with condensing/summarizing information. Also, you're a great speaker. However, you are very much lacking in depth. And I'm pretty sure the claim of "your body starts detoxifying" (at 5:17) by quitting sugar is inaccurate as your body does not remove toxins from avoiding sugar.
Hi dr thanks for great video, i am not diabetics. But i stop sugar, and bread for 8 month now my sugar level before break fast is little high and after breakfast it normal. This new thing for me what do you think?
Please do not wave your hands all the time about when talking. It is highly distracting from what you are saying. When presenting info you do not need to “ perform” to your audience. It becomes excruciating to watch you. Think of how your president Obama delivered his speeches!
Do not be duped by his superficial charisma. President Obama was a slick talking psychopath. Hence why he gutted the Smith Mundt Act, essentially legalizing propaganda and now our country is full of idealigically subverted people that have been propagandized into oblivion. Most Americans are completely in the dark about every subject that matters. And the 2 party tyranny continues. Thank you Barrack Obama. The hand gestures here are probably likely due to his ADHD, they tend to be very fidgety people who are incapable of sitting still. I know it’s annoying but they usually can’t help it.
You look like you’re lying about everything you’re saying! It may be the shirt or the way you move your hands. …..Was this video made a year after you ended the diet/fast???
I’m embarrassed that you have a video about not having sugar for 30 days but you include fruit… In your diet. I don’t understand how intelligent people can be so clearly in denial.
Exactly… you clearly don’t get it. He meant doing no added and/or processed sugar. Naturally-occurring sugar is treated much differently by your body with fiber and all the other compounds that are found in fruit.
Your daughter is adorable. I think it's good you're saying no to her demands to eat sugar. It teaches her boundary-setting.
I gave up all sugar many many years ago. Everything tastes so much better. Now I can’t stand anything sweet, no sweeter than carrots which I must have for my eyes.
In three weeks of stopping sugar I went from 137 to 128 to 105. Lost five pounds
Huh? 🤔
@@BazzooookaI think the numbers are blood sugar readings not weight.
@@tracypowell9300okay
This is some really encouraging info Dr LeGrand, thanks so much for doing this valuable experiment and sharing it with us! Very inspiring.
The colour grading is soo 🔥🔥
Hey Dr LeGrand, you have the best thumbnails of anybody in this ADHD space, do you make your own thumbnails? If so, kudos 👏 👏 👏 your very talented
Thank you! 😁I currently do but have had others help me in the past 😊

I experienced the headache it was terrible…i was like is this normal?
Yeah it’s like going off drugs. Sugar is more addictive than cocaine actually.
I failed twice because I forgot. But my challenge is no sugar forever.
It can be done.

Magnesium helped with my headache

Oh man, I don’t even have ADHD but this background music is very distracting and makes it harder to focus on what you are saying.

dat sten ekberg thumbnail lol
How do you suggest that we track with the blood sugar monitor? I'm thinking of doing this
No mention of weight or body fat change. Was there any?
I'm having trouble with downloading the food guide, is there anywhere else I can get this?

No wonder I love sipping monster energy drink all the time 😂

The weight before and after?
Did you fast before you took the sugar test?
Have you done a video on berberine?
I just came here from that video

Calm down

But he never said he was doing keto…
Low glycemic fruits and veggies they exist and are fine
It's better than eating processed sugar.
Along with sugar, did you also reduce your carbs? Sounds like you need more education on nutrition. Research Keto and what no sugar, low carb, high (good) fat diet can do for your metabolic health.
Man I hope you kept this up. Having a fasting blood sugar of 115 is not good.
Over 95 is bad
How are you doing now ? A year later ??
Your daughter is sooo adorable 😍 💕 she wants daddy to eat lol
yeah, seeing her kinda awakened a father in me. Now I want a daughter too.
So what foods should i eat
Fruits and nuts are good
I never believe such thing unless i see video of your body before and after quitting sugar.
I did it for 3 months but after the hyper focus went away I went back into my binging habits. But I'm also unmedicated so controlling the cravings are so hard :(

If the garbage stops coming in a piling up, then yes, your body cleans itself up.
Hi dr thanks for great video, i am not diabetics. But i stop sugar, and bread for 8 month now my sugar level before break fast is little high and after breakfast it normal. This new thing for me what do you think?
Sugar=fructose.

You ate fruit, sorry but the title no sugar was BS
You didn’t do a no sugar diet if you ate fruit
processed/added sugars are WAY different than the sugar found in whole fruit.
Exactly… you clearly don’t get it. He meant doing no added and/or processed sugar. Naturally-occurring sugar is treated much differently by your body with fiber and all the other compounds that are found in fruit.
