Dear Sten, would you please consider an episode on the roles of fructose and URIC ACID on metabolic syndrom, fat storage, weight gain, diabetes insulin rsistence and blood pressure via NO - not only gout. All of this in context of endogeneously produced fructose from a paleo survival pathway. We humans and also great apes have an about 15 m years old mutation in the enzyme which gets us into trouble with a sofern high fructose diet. Important science was done by: 1. Prof. Richard Johnson, professor at University of Colorado Scool of medicine 2. Dr. David Perlmutter, University of Miami

When they start getting sick (& take it from someone it happened to, they will) cut their sugar out & replace it with Stevia & Xylitol; the latter of which tastes just like sugar, BUT is about 4x expensive per lb. Then they'll see how much damage sugar has done to them. As a vegetarian I've cut out an enormous amount of sugar, but I still eat a lot of vegetarian processed "meats" (soy based, etc.), but cutting out sugar from my coffee, switching from those sugar loaded juices (never a fan of 'sodas') to xylitol & stevia sweetened self made lemonade & ice tea & cutting out all alcohol for five years now, have & will make a real difference to my/your health. 👍😉

I'm a twin and my sister has put on lots of weight over the years... I feel worried for her because of her health issues and tell her to change her diet... She gets angry with me when I explain what she's eating is causing her health issues ... It's sad! I'm scared for her! She has become so resentful to me and I love her dearly... she says I love cooking and baking bread and it suits me ... We were born identical and now she is probably twice my size and looks so tired 😞 I pray she will start to listen... 🇬🇧

In 1978 when I was very young and so sad being obese in high school I came across a booklet I ordered from one of those supermarket tabloid newspapers. Long story short, I went cold turkey & 0 carbs each day for the 1st week. I felt horrible, but then the 2nd week I ate 10 carbs per day, the 3rd week I ate 20 carbs per day, and so on. I lost 75lbs over summer break easily & by the time I got to eating 70 carbs per day I ended up putting on 2lbs that week. So I learned to keep my carb intake at 70 per day if I wanted to maintain my new sleek & fit body. Afterwards anything processed & fast food tasted like horrible chemicals to me & still does to this day. I actually still have the booklet!

I’m sure you probably heard this many times before. But, as a radiologist and a fellow physician, I wanted to give you my heartfelt thanks for your video. I believe that you have extended my life with many additional good years. Based on your advice I cut out carbs and eat more fats, in only three months I lost 15-20 lbs, got my triglycerides down to 98 from 200, took my cholesterol down to 150 from 200 and my vldl down to 16 from 40. Plus, my hbh1c has gone down significantly. This in only 3 months! What I find disconcerting is how much bad advice is out there, when there is a whole body of evidence to show that what you recommend actually works. Big pharmaceuticals and food companies have no incentive to recommend what we really should be eating. And, until that changes, we will continue to have a metabolic crisis in this country. It’s very sad. Nevertheless, I am on the right path and I use much of excellent advice you give. Cannot express my thanks enough for what you do!

@bejit10 Radiologist here, too. I am a recovering SAD addict. All the misinformation about 3 meals a day and 2 snacks, which prioritizes “complex” carbs have made so many Americans so metabolically unhealthy and has lead to the obesity problem across the US….and now across the globe! I found keto and carnivore 4 years ago. Within 1 year I lost 65 lbs and my body underwent remarkable re-composition with more lean muscle mass and much less fat. I put on and maintain muscle tone so much more easily than with the SAD diet. I have been able to maintain my weight to my college and med school level and dropped to single digit clothing size. I have so much more energy, brain fog is gone, and I am mentally so much sharper! Amazing what switching to a proper human diet can do. Congratulations to you on re-discovering good health.

I was one of those (crazy) people who would skip dinner so I could have dessert, that's how addicted I was. Then, by accident, I started eating 1 meal a day. At first I ate whatever I wanted, no restrictions. Then here's what happened: 1. I completely lost my craving for sugar 2. I started craving good food, veggies, fruit, meat, nuts, etc. 3. My chronic indigestion and bloating went away 4. I wasn't hungry. In fact, I discovered that eating makes you hungry This was years ago, before IF was a thing, and I had plenty of push back from friends and family, but I didn't care. I felt great and it has been a perfect lifestyle choice for me. Of course, now everybody's asking me about it. 😄

Excellent video. My husband and I are 3 months carnivore and feeling great. For me, I just had to go cold turkey on carbs. And yes I did suffer for about 2 weeks. I don't think this approach will work for everyone but it's how I needed to do it. I no longer crave sugar/carbs at all. My addiction to carbs wasn't to ice cream or other typical sweets. My addiction was to bread. I could not eat even one slice of any kind of bread without going on a bread eating frenzy. I still look longingly at toast with butter but it's emotional and not a physical craving. I tell myself "that's not food". I'll now add "you shall not pass". A friend of mine was an alcoholic. She's not anymore and can even go to a bar with friends and not drink. I ask her how she is able to maintain her sobriety. She told me that if the only thing in life she can't do is drink alcohol, she's fine with that. She focuses on the innumerable other things in life that she can experience and never focuses on what she can't do. I was impressed by this approach and it clearly works for her . If I can't have bread there is an abundance of healthy fats and proteins I can have and and they are delicious. I'm 76 and feeling wonderful without any addictions.❤

OH MY GOD, this video is perfect! I’m 8 mos on a keto and IF lifestyle. I reached my goal weight and metabolic health in 3 months. December messed me up. I allowed myself a “little” of this and that, which rolled into the same behavior in January. I gained 5 pounds back (grr) but mostly I have made it harder on myself mentally. Tortilla chips & salsa are my kryptonite, so I can’t have them in the house (I just had to throw away 1/2 a bag and jar. I succumbed recently 😞) It is very hard to eat keto/IF with a SAD eating husband and all of his “food” around. So many temptations in the house. But I WANT to stay focused because I look and feel so much better. You nailed it. WANTING, FEELING and WHY are key. I LOVE that you told us about your ice cream addiction.

I weighed myself on 28th Dec '23, got the shock of seeing that I was heavier than at any point in my life. I immediately stopped eating carbs and adopted a 5:2 fasting regime with zero food intake after 18:00hrs on any given day. Early on in the process though I wanted to be making informed choices and soon discovered your channel Dr Ekberg, episodes were intensively binge-watched and helped me tremendously to adopt a healthy eating plan. I'm really enjoying the foods I can eat so don't feel put out by this lifestyle change. I'm happy to say that only 22 days in; my latest weigh in indicated that I've lost 8kg, I know it's coming off the belly fat too which is tremendous. Thank you for your really helpful uploads.

That last point is exactly what got me through my transition to carb free. I went cold turkey, which was indeed painful, but watching the pounds drop every single day gave me the reward and drive I’ve needed. After two weeks, I feel like I’ve completely defeated the cravings, and it’s incredible. Now I am probably over 90% carnivore, with occasional keto friendly veggies. I mostly eat just dinner, with an occasional lunchtime snack. Oddly, I feel like I can go the whole day without eating and never get that low sugar feeling I used to. The hangry me is gone.

For 4 weeks weeks now, I have been watching your videos 30 minutes before bed every night to get me educated AND keep me motivated to IF and OMAD. I am also following ALL of your steps in ALL of your videos. I have lost 15 fat lbs in 4 weeks and hope to keep this up until I have lost 45-50 fat lbs. Fasting for 18 hours was much easier than I thought it would be. Fasting for 24 hours is getting easier. I am looking forward to my first every 48 hour fast starting today. None of this is easy because I was ALWAYS IN FEAST MODE. BUT I have not cheated once since deciding to make this lifestyle change.

I've never done an illegal drug, have never smoked pot or even cigarettes and have never been an alcoholic......but I simply am unable to give up sugar. I have had no problem giving up breads/pastas etc. and ultra-processed foods but I just cannot give up sugars/sweets. I am truly addicted to them. I HAVE cut back but I still cannot give them up completely. Just way too hard for me. I lost 40 lbs in 7 months last year so at least there's that.

The only way I can do it is to not have access to it. Don’t buy it, have it in the house. If I have a bit I’ll just binge. And grit my teeth and find something to distract me. Exercise helps, I do vigorous gardening and walk. Well done on the weight loss!

I make my own peanut butter paste. Organic peanut butter powder, organic powdered butter, some ginger powder, Cocoa powder, cocao powder mint powder. I also added some turmeric and black pepper and mix it up with water and blend it. Then I just take a couple big spoonfuls or tablespoon or more. I'm sure you could add some honey if you wanted to. Sometimes I add organic coconut shavings from the mustard seed or Whole Foods. If you want some Texture and chewy sensation. You can also add Cocao nibs to make it a little bit more crunchy.

The way to stop sugar cravings is to deal with the emotions that are fueling them DIRECTLY instead of using food. How? I use open mouth humming and wailing. That gets the ENERGY of the unresolved grief that’s stuck in my body OUT of my body. *If you’re willing to eat anything, you’re eating out of hunger. *If you’re eating to satisfy a craving, you’re eating out of emotion.

This is the video I’ve been waiting for! I’ve had great success since a switched to a primarily animal based diet last year, having lost 30kg in 4 months and completely eliminating my severe depression and anxiety. My one remaining weakness though is sugar, which I’ve discovered I’m hopelessly addicted to. It’s been a real struggle trying to resist the cravings but I’m making progress. Steadily decreasing my sugar intake seems to be a better approach to just going cold turkey and then succumbing to the inevitable binges.

People who smoke say the same thing. Are they hurting themselves? Maybe maybe not. Thought and believe does create our reality. Don’t know where you live but here in United States we are bombarded with pharmaceutical drug commercials. Constantly telling us this could go wrong, that could go wrong with us, this statistic that statistic. (I mute the commercials so all I see is very happy people and not words convincing me that DRUG is necessary) If people hear something over and over and over and over it’s going to get in their heads. They are going to start believing it. And we all know fear controls! It’s what Hitler did. People heard his story so often that they went out and did the dirty work for him. (it’s just your typical narcissist and their flying monkeys except the ones you meet on a daily basis can only control a handful of people) So according to quantum physics if you truly truly believe with all your being what you’re doing is not going to hurt you it won’t. The problem is all of those around you are saying it is gonna hurt you. So how thick is your bubble?

However, sugar is definitely my thing! So, here I am, doing what my husband did, eating up all of the information that I can on the harm it causes.

I started following your advice of low carb, cutting processed foods and switching to healthy fats and proteins and lots of healthy vegetables especially leafy greens. I satisfied my sweet tooth with blueberries and blackberries mixed into plain Greek yogurt- the highest fat content I could find. I added a little stevia and voila- soo good! Before starting I had borderline type 2 diabetes and was starting to experience numbness and tingling in my fingers and toes. I immediately felt an improvement after just one week. I continued for about 3 months and after a particularly busy and stressful time in my life, I noticed the tingling was occasionally creeping back. I then decided to ramp it up and also do intermittent fasting. What a huge difference. Tingling has been for 6 months and I lost a total of 30lbs. I am back to my 20 year old size and I feel great at age 62. My blood sugar level dropped and I am no longer on the borderline of type 2 diabetes.

Most addicts in denial would say "i could quit anytime but where's the point in giving up all pleasurable things in life". I doubt they could quit without severe cravings and symtoms of withdrawal. And people would encourage each other not to quit because everyone is hooked on this drug. Great presentation as always, Sten. There's also some practical ways to stop the urge, like going for a walk or replacing the habit with drinking plain tea. And becoming thoughtful when reaching for snacks. Intermittent fasting also helps not going to the fridge all day long.

There are challanges to changing lifestyle it was difficult during gatherings. I went back to sugar a few years ago and I am struggling to get back. I'm good with no carbohydrate sugars but it's the chocolate or snacks that gets me the most. Emotional eating. I know this is the best lifestyle for me.

I'm on my second month of sugar and processed food free. I've lost 4 kilos, so am pretty chuffed. I suspect I'll plateau out on the next weigh-in, if so, I'll start monitoring the carbs and drop them gradually. Next week I'm starting an anti-inflammatory diet, so the initial month has been a great pre-cursor. Not sure if I'll get the benefits, but as they say, "if you never, never go, you'll never, never know"! It's worth a shot (I'm in my 60s and have chronic arthritis, which is extremely debilitating).
