I found hundreds of aphids in my 🥬 kale, make sure you wash it!

152 POUNDS of sugar !!!!

I’m surprised you went back to your addiction!

sugar is bad but stuff taste good with sugar in it, so all brands put sugar in it. you need to look into keto diet and keto deserts. you use erithretol instead of sugar which is a fruit alcohol. and u r good to go. u justneed to make ur own deserts but im pretty sure thereare tons of keto deserts in usa just not in most countries.

I agree. I did not eat biscuits ,since they are my biggest problem, for a few days. Then I accidentally ate some chocolate and before i know it i had already eaten around 5 biscuits and a small cake.

I know what you mean. I gave up alcohol 29 years ago. Some say I should just try it in moderation, but it is much easier drawing the line and saying I won't cross it at all. At least alcohol isn't in just about every product in the grocery store.

@@vintagejock3951 HOW. HOW???? LMAO

What works for me is intermittent fasting, specifically OMAD. This way I can still have my desserts without the inevitable craving and binges that comes with constant sugar consumption. I've been doing OMAD for a year now and every single meal I would have a dessert afterwards without feeling any cravings outside of my eating window.

100% that’s how addiction works I recently quit caffeine six days ago and I am five days into Quitting sugar. Hope it works out.

that is good things, i ve heard sugar gives nutrition to cancer cells, so by prevent it and eating alkaline foods you makes the cancer cells starve and that is good

@@deamonica1126I also heard fasting from sunrise to sunset for 30 days gets rid of cancer cells and renews I heard that another reason why Muslims do it

Hi Memoria... 🙏 Good luck with your fight. About eating sugar, can you try reducing the consumption amount rather than quitting it totally? The glucose spike or anything physical health related is one thing. Being happy, contented is another. I believe that if, say, you eat a slice of chocolate every 3 days is not much and will not do harm to your health, instead it will make your day. Remember, every 3 days and just a slice of chocolate. Not every day and a whole packet of chocolate bar... Surely, this is just a suggestion!

Congratulations on beating cancer! I have heard that cancer is caused by parasites. Parasites feed off of sugar. Fenbendazole and Ivermectin kill parasites. I wonder why so many in the medical field are against us taking this safer than Tylenol Nobel prize winning miracle drug. Here’s a video claiming cancer is parasites. 🤷‍♀️ kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bZaprKuG39eRo4k.html

i wish you the best

What major benefits are you feeling so far?

@@lehutjomaja1173 Can't speak for him, but I quit most added sugars when going on a cut (lasted ~8 months), and yeah, the differences were tremendous. The main things I found were decrease in hunger/snacking, decrease in stomach problems, and an overall increase in happiness (especially that corelated with eating). After researching sugar, I found that a side effect of eating it is an increase in hunger levels, I don't remember the exact details but that was the just of it. This was the reason for less snacking, and eating overall, and led to the increase of joy found in eating as each meal seemed more special as there wasn't the sugary/sweet snacks which, in the context of dopamine levels, outclassed regular meals. As for stomach problems, this is something I struggled on and off with over time, though had a complete end to this once I started no added sugar, probably just because high levels of added sugars are hard on the digestive system as a whole. I will say that it was hard to sustain for about the first 2 weeks, but after there was only some occational light temptation, though it was easy to resist. That was my experience with this kind of diet

Please provide the benefits you experienced.

80lbs!! That's great! I've been eating healthier, gym, water, no booze, etc for a year and only down 30lbs but I'll just keep plugging along. Maybe doing the strict no added processed sugar will do the trick.

I've been buying no sugar chocolates for my sweets and while they aren't the same, they do seem to hit the spot.

​@poochiew.9302 you just need to use organic 72% dark chocolate chips.

Look at magnesium. Low on magnesium and you get sugar cravings. Magnesium is very hard to test for in blood tests so hard to know if low

How’s it going

@@alyupde9337 going good.. but no more weight loss.. weight loss 6 pound total.

How are you doing?!?!

@@KimsLantern 45 days and still going strong..no craving

@@KimsLantern I think he lost all his weight and just disappeared

That’s like 0.2 kg a day wtf

@@jsgv7935 Most of it is water weight tbh. I've started plateauing.

@@realzionygo ok

Yes but really well done 👍

how's your results going now, a month later?

My sister keeps telling me to eat just meat, she's been doing it for a year and loves it. I dunno if my kidneys could take it...

@@natlegend Too much protein isn't kind to the kidneys but you don't have to eat that much meat. It's about balance. I'm in my 40s and I feel better than I did in my 30s.

Did that for a year and a half , dropped almost 90 pounds, had outstanding mood/energy stability throughout the day. Recently I've been looking to get back into it, and it seems harder as sugars are getting added to even more products they don't have any business being in, and meat/produce prices are skyrocketing.

Just started a Keto with 24h between meals(fasting) and it is brilliant😊

Same!!!! Sugar addiction is real and so gross. Keto and intermittent fasting has been a total life changer for me. I have more energy, mire mental clarity, no more intense cravings, and way better mood management. I am so thankful to have found the information and discipline to carry it out

So true.

Agreed

facts. its like drugs, you cant escape it unless you transfer to other environment.

Sugar is a nutrient your body runs on it, most food has sugar, all athletes eat foods with sugar/carb because it is good for you. Its not withdrawal its lack of nutrients in your body, you want sugar just how you want some sodium, fat, protein.

@@dasdasdas7326 complex carbohydrates contain longer chains of sugar molecules than simple carbohydrates, means digest slower and keep insulin level stable. it is so easy to overeat your calories in simple carbs/sugar. I personally dont see the use of simple carbs other than athlete or workout addict who need a super fast energy source before/after workout

Great Work! I gave up sugar completely about 9 months ago when I learned that fructose is a real killer. Rice syrup doesn't have any fructose - it is a milder sweet and I use it all the time in my recipes! It has worked really well. I have noticed that I am now really sensitive to even dried fruit! Interesting palate change!

Amen I feel the same

Hi, congratulations Laurie Sherman on your success! Besides cutting out sugar what other changes did you out do?

@@Bornagain1076 mostly I was just trying to live healthier. Getting more and better sleep which has been an issue all my life. Moving more. I've had desk jobs for the last 12 years. With my new job I'm on my feet and moving almost constantly. It was tough the first few weeks but I'm used to it now.

Congratulations! Well done.

how its your joint? Im vegan for 2 weeks already in an effort to cure my reactive arthritis and by the day 5 my inflammations in lower back and the most inflammated part, left foot, are 90% gone. Well, my left foot still has some inflammation, but I CAN WALK and I can wear almost all my shoes, because inflammations exploded some 4-5 month ago and I could only wear 2 pairs of shoes from textile material. now I can almost run, no backpain at all...I highly recommand vegan diet.

Veganism is the worst diet there is! You would be better off living on white sugar alone. You need animal fat to be healthy, period.

@@Junkinsally nope.

Lay off bananas (too much natural sugar). I hope the absence of sugar helps you but it never helped me however, the eventual weight loss was a tremendous help

@@danielnapoli649 Thanks for your reply, Daniel. In the two months since I wrote my comment there's been an important change. My body now finds the pineapple TOO SWEET. Amazing and quite unexpected! Now I have changed the smoothie, so it contains only frozen banana blended with unsweetened oat milk, and some of William Davis' "SIBO" yogurt stirred in. The SIBO yogurt (fermented using certain probiotic capsules as the starter) repopulates the gut with the correct microbes, the sort that are supposed to be there.

Interesting.

Well done, keep it up! Earning back your energy levels with a choice like this is so rewarding because it GIVES energy to make better choices for the next meals too. And to the sleep part: never better, right?!

You sound EXACTLY like me ! Im a month in and my bad knee pains GONE !

What were some surprising foods that you found helped you?

It's great isn't it? After cutting down on sugar I sleep better, the pain in my legs got better, my skin got better, I have more energy, I don't bloat anymore. It's like I am allergic to sugar. I sometimes have a little sugar but not consistently. It's the solution to many problems and a easy diet.

Have to take the time to make homemade. Start with salad dressings

Also acquiring a taste for the very dark chocolates took time. The best way I thought about it in comparison was thinking of a really good expensive coffee or a craft beer (things that require an acquired taste). The dark chocolate are the same but once you experiment and find ones you like they are actually delicious and don't taste like dirt anymore. Haha When I have a craving for sugar I go and grab a small piece (typically 1 or 2 squares) and that completely satisfies my craving. Just thought I'd share what's worked for me if anyone else out there is giving it a go.

@@nickr500. I am one of those who simply doesn't eat things I don't like. I see no point in 'acquiring a taste' for something I dislike. Coffee, alcoholic beverages and dark chocolate are among them. This was not the popular choice when I was in high school and everyone wanted me to acquire a taste for beer. 🙂

@@gusmonster59 no problem with that. I don't drink much myself. I was just saying that to relate to more people

@@gusmonster59 understandable, eat what you like! in this case though, the "aquired taste" could also be affected by the fact that the tastebuds after a time without so much sweetness are no longer desensitized and now can taste the chocolate better than before... people often say foods that didn't taste sweet before quitting sugar now do.

Ghirardelli 92% is the only dark chocolate I enjoy. In fact I enjoy it too much and have to restrict how much I buy lol

I've yet to see a vegetable with added sugar. Never had a steak with any added sugar either. If you're gonna eat processed foods don't be surprised with what's in it. Just eat regular FOOD. And drink water.

I bought an air fryer after watching this video too!

Really ?I live in the UK and have found most stuff has added sugar in it.

There is still added sugar but the American foods take it to another level @@Satsusss

it does, but over in the US it's ramped up even more so the UK seems much tamer in comparison @@Satsusss

The UK is pretty much infamous for its unhealthy food, but so is the US. I didn’t know there was such a difference between them.

Lol 😂 how’s it going?

@@GraceHolmes pretty damn well.

I am on my day 3🥲 it's sooo hard

@@ektatomer2399 just hang in there, after 3 2 weeks youll see its not that hard 👍🏻

@@ektatomer2399 I’ve been eating sugar for both of you so you don’t have to:)

OMG, Wendy, I'm glad you made it through alright. Sounds like a frightening experience. Thanks for sharing your story, it's a good reminder for all of us to put health before social expectations and pressures.

Wendy, Check out Afrezza, the only ultra rapid-acting mealtime INHALABLE insulin. My nephew has been using it for 4 yrs and loves it.

Being allergic to sugar sounds more like a blessing than a curse tho

Do you eat fruits???

Never let a family member poison you in order to remain polite. Your sister in law probably feels terrible now.

This is sooooo inspiring 😭 I get REALLY bad sugar cravings when I miss meals. (I may be hypoglycemic) and the other day, missing two meals, started craving Cocoa Puffs like a bad habit, and had convinced myself up until I saw your comment, I was going to get a box this weekend. This has helped me decide I don’t need to. That money will be better spent on whole meals, and satiating foods 😊

Do you have any snack tips? (: or cravings tips?

keep it up!!!

@@purpuranegra Day 31 18lbs and I made it through my first Christmas party without any sweets.

Congrats, SO awesome

Update?!?

@@kimberlymorfin6275, Had blood tests last week Cholesterol and Sugar are excellent (cut them in half), 27lbs total weight loss. Energy is up all day long. I have a consultation with my cardiologist in March to discuss dropping meds. Thanks for asking!

You do know he was acting, right?

Oof. I turned 36 on Sunday, and the middle-aged fluff is REAL. I've been 3 days with no soda, which is surprisingly hard even though I only drank one can a day.

Her doctor was "surprised" that she could control her diabetes through diet? That is a stupid doctor.

I'm diabetic too. (Caught something nasty that almost killed me and scared my liver and left me diabetic.) I'm also severely allergic to soy. There is a large overlap between the two, so it's not much worse than one or the other. Basically, I can have almost anything (except potatoes and rice) but I have to make it myself. Ketchup? I can eat normal ketchup, but it's better if I make a low carb ketchup. Mayo? Same thing. What I find is when I make the prerequisite ingredients for everything, instead of buying them from a super market, my food jumps in taste. People keep wanting to come by just to eat my food. The few times I go to a restaurant I'm stunned at how mediocre even a high end restaurant tastes. Making base ingredients really does improve dish taste, surprisingly quite a bit. I even bake my own low carb bread (real bread, yeast and gluten, knead and rise, not that fake stuff) and make low carb noodles. For rice I'll make a cauliflower risotto from time to time, but that's about the best I can do. For potatoes there is no substitute. For most western dishes, like Italian, French, German, American, I'm covered. I make a killer pizza and lasagna. For most Asian dishes I'll substitute rice with noodles, so like noodle curry for example. The trick to spending very little time in the kitchen while having all these wonderful meals is two fold: 1) Making the prerequisite ingredients in bulk and then freezing it. This is called prepping. When I want a meal I assemble some pre-made ingredients and a meal comes together in 5-15 minutes. 2) I follow normal non diabetic recipes and just substitute ingredients as needed. I make multiple kinds of low carb sugar that kicks ass flavor wise, I make a few kinds of low carb flour that are pretty good, and I make a low carb milk that tastes like normal whole milk. From there, I can make a low carb bread, noodles, and so on. So just about any dish out there I can make. Sometimes the alternative ingredients taste better than the original. I feel like I'm the only person on the planet who does this, but it works well for me. This week I'm making a satay chicken curry, peanut sauce for dip, and naan for eating the curry. I have noodles premade but I'm not sure, I might just go with naan. (That and bagels and meatloaf, and I'm eating out gyro salad bowl, .. not sure what else yet.)

The sad thing is nutritionists often advise diabetics to eat stuff like low-fat yogurt because it's "healthy", but guess what they add to low-fat food to make it more palatable...

Same for me. In addition I’ve always won weight loss challenges with friends. So if I gain 15-20lbs because of a few Starbucks which isn’t Keto friendly

honestly sugar is one of the best things in this world. It is a sad life without it, I dont care

@@Account-br9kc Nah, fat and protein are better. And salt! And herbs and spices! Longer carbohydrates can also be amazing. You can make the most amazing bread using just flour, water, yeast, salt, olive oil, and oregano. No sugar needed. It is fun to make but if you don't feel like putting effort in, try the cold rise technique. Basically just mix a big batch of dough, pop it in oiled and closed plastic containers with plenty of space to rise (40-80% air), and forget about it for a couple days. Heat oven, put dough directly from fridge in the oven, and bake :)

Update? Im on day 8 and i feel like a crackhead😹 piece of me has died i miss soda with all my heart ive only been drinking water nothing else bo juice no tea no coffee nothing

Good point. I always eat organic steel cut oats with oatmilk, but since the milk had added sugar I made the oats with water and bananas. it was sweet and satisfying and I had to really try to taste it.

I can't even make it 1 day. :(

Don’t give up. The longer you go the easier become

If you have cravings for food all day long, try to cut the carbs and eat more protein and your cravings will disappear.

@@Jupit_hare But there`s a lot of sugar in bananas as well. Try nuts and seeds or berries like raspberries, blueberries, boysenberries, fresh currants, gooseberries, loganberries and cherries.

I was relieved that he didn't actually trash it 😅

I was about to say, “Why don’t you freeze…” and then he put it in the freezer. Lol.

I did the same thing. I always rolled my eyes when people droned on about "inflamation" until i started a very low carb lifestyle. The amoint of issues i thought were normal that just went away was astonishing. Inflamation causes soooo much problems and most dont recognize it.

Drink more koke.

Did you also exercise !? Or was it just cutting off sugar intake ?! I’d like to know please:):)

@@lakshmipriyakarri i went from 207 to 158 pounds in about 5 months eating a high fat diet with less than 20 grams of carbs per day. I did not exercise at all to lose the weight. Now that i feel so good, i am starting to lift weights. Might jog every now and then too. Weight loss is strictly diet. I understand that now

Nausea! That's what I feel when they give me ridiculously sweet things. I couldn't name the feeling before. But it's liike nausea.

It is "That Sugar Film" made by Damon Gameau.

Figs are natural. No added sugar. But they are full of carbs. Will make you fat if you eat too many.

Well done

John Cleese under pseudonym making a KZfaq appearance... God Save The King (from sugar)!!!!

Great job!

You’re best to just have it in moderation in a well balanced diet. You can ruin a whole weeks worth of work in just 1 day of over eating

The issue with sugar is - especially having eaten it for so long - even a little bit makes you want more and more again and again just like an addiction. So for Them to recognise the success of 6 sugar free days - and be back on it Monday - is probably a good way to stay focused. As humans we often forget that progress is slow and focusing in on small achievements is beneficial for personal goals. Even just praising yourself for turning up to the gym.

Hi there! I'm in my third day without sugar, how have you been doing? Did you manage to cut it? :D

just eat one meal a day, whatever you want. Cut the coke and only drink water/coffee etc and I would bet 3lbs lost each week min.

@Insert name here: 😭😂

Same thing has happened to me, I am amazed that I actually have to have myself eat something now, instead of being super hungry all the time.

How much did u weigh initially?

I realised I had a problem when I had the overwhelming urge to walk to the local shop and buy chocolate. It's a highly addictive substance.

So what does honey contain? Yes, sugar.

⁠​⁠@@andreakahl756 pure honey does not which I think is what they meant and not the ones you buy from stores like Walmart and target

Update- still going strong. Now lost 1st 2lb and back to my original weight x

What is keto, a fad

Amen

Me to I’ve done keto on and off the last 2 years but I’m really sticking to it at the moment. Body is happily burning its own fat lost a shed load of weight and feel better than I have for years. So to the other commenter no it’s not a fab it’s a way of life

@@atlasstjames5904 not a fad it’s literally what our ancestors thrived on for 100s of thousands of years.

Unfortunately/fortunately (deppends which side of the fence You live) added sugar in everything happens only in countries with decades long tradition of making processed food - like US. I live on Poland and it's really unheard of to see sugar in sausage and the like. I can easily buy bread without it, heck I would have to really try to find one with sugar in traditional bakery. So I feel realy sorry for you guys in US because what You get served as a food is shocking.

I hate cacao nibs, that's such a good tip! There's a smoothie place near me that puts them in everything and I'm too awkward to ask for it without so I soldier through. But it does satisfy that itch and I never want any more, that's for sure

It helped me to change what I want, that way I don't have to fight myself. As in the video, having lots of snack options gets you in the mindset of enjoying other types of food.

@@bramvanduijn8086 stop snacking so much and you will feel even better.

I live alone. So going out for a drink or dinner is part of being social. It's rough

Sometimes you just realize you only live once and just go for it. It's great to be mindful of health, but at the same time, do we really want to go through life always depriving ourselves? As we age, it's amazing how our perception of things change.

@@josephmango4628 it is amazing how our perceptions change as we age. We realize that in order to be at our best we must do what we never did before. Deny ourselves. A treat every once in a while is OK, but for some people every once in a while, turns into all the time.

Update 9 days later?

So how is it?

The best solution is cooking at home to control the ingredients - and taste! I bake my own bread with just organic flour, yeast, salt and water. I even make my own flour and corn tortillas, whole wheat and rye flat breads, etc. Recently I had a store-bought bagel, and it tasted like sweet, gummy cake. Nasty. In fact, I remember reading a recent story that England classified Subway's bread as cake because of the sugar content, so they didn't get some sort of tax break the country allows for real bread.

@@leapintothewild I agree and I bake myself, but my point about the US is the sugar levels are so normalised that a lot of people don't even know how much they're consuming.

@@JohnMoseley I totally agree. Sugar levels in food are outreagous there. And then people are paying the highest price - with their health. I have been to USA only once but everything I tried was so sickly sweet that I could eat only like one or two bites and that was it.

@@yogalifeclubPL Yeah. I guess the key point for Americans unfortunate enough to be hooked on this stuff is, for the rest of us it doesn't even taste nice. It might be hard logistically to give it up, but it doesn't mean they'll never enjoy their food again.

@@leapintothewild I live in the UK and I didn't know that about Subway. That's really funny

Wow your a goat. I’m so proud of you 🎉

As a pre diabetic too, I took control of my health. My parents were diabetic and suffered a lot because this condition affected their blood pressure, heart, eyesight, kidneys & brain. I so scare to suffered their fate. First I got rid of sugar & starches. Wasn't easy, like he said in this video, we are addicted to these food, and like all addictions created difficulties in our body to adjust to the lack of the substance. But if you really care about yourself you will fight to take control of your health. The second thing I did is to talk to professional in diabetes with experience in nutrition to follow, I was recommended to follow a program from Dr. Fung a Nephrologist. The program involved Interment fasting & nutrition with more protein & less carbs. For me worked very well. I managed to loose 15 pounds & to feel full without cravings. My blood sugar levels are very good. Everyone should follow their own path that work for them, but the important thing is to take control of our health.

I repeat this process over and over and over.....

That was my big problem with this video. While HE may understand that, his viewers might not. He should have looked at the ingredients lists and spent a little time talking about the different "sneaky" names for added sugar. That would have been a better service to his viewers. (I've been a label reader since I managed a health food store 40 years ago.)

Yes, fiber will slow down blood sugar spikes. But fiber doesn't eliminate sugar. Our bodies still have to handle the entire amount of sugar we consumed. So insulin will rise to handle storing that sugar.

@@mettamorph4523 It certainly does not eliminate it, I didn't mean to imply that. Fibre helps REGULATE the body's use of sugars, helping to keep hunger and blood sugar in check. A bit of a gate keeper. It's all part of the control and craving balance that we require. Without the fibre increase it would be harder to lessen the amount consumed.
