There is so much confusion when it comes to carbs. We live in a world with conflicting nutrition advice, and carbohydrates are at the front and center of nutrition controversy.
Not all carbohydrates - or all carbohydrate-rich foods - are equal in terms of the nutrition they provide or how the body uses them. There are differences in types of carbohydrates, how they are digested and absorbed, and how they’re used by the body.

Sucrose is a type of simple carbohydrate called sugar. Specifically, sucrose is a disaccharide, meaning it's made of two monosaccharides; in the case of sucrose, it's made of the monosaccharide glucose and the monosaccharide fructose. Other disaccharides include maltose, which is 2 glucose molecules fused together, and lactose, glucose, and galactose fused together.
Individual sugar units can combine into more complex, often branched, polysaccharides, typically consisting of hundreds or thousands of glucose molecules fused together.
These carbohydrates are found in grains and vegetables and can be broadly categorized into digestible and indigestible types. Digestible polysaccharides include starch and glycogen. Starch is the storage form of glucose found in plant tissues, and glycogen is the storage form of glucose in the muscle & liver in humans and animals.
But Fun Fact about glycogen - when you eat meat, you don’t actually consume glycogen because it has already been broken down when the animal died. Indigestible polysaccharides mainly consist of fiber, which only comes from plants. Cellulose is an example of a fiber composed entirely of glucose molecules. But unlike the glucose found in starch or glycogen, the glucose molecules in cellulose are fused together to make it impossible for our gut enzymes to break them down.
Certain foods contain two types of fiber, both of which are important for you. Insoluble fiber is a type of polysaccharide that cannot be broken down in our body. It can’t be absorbed into your bloodstream, providing 0 calories. It passes unchanged through our digestive tract, and I’ll later explain why this is so important. On the other hand, soluble fiber dissolves during digestion, turning into a gel-like substance. It’s not digestible, but some components of it can be broken down by our gut bacteria in the colon, and what those bacteria do with it becomes very important.
For example, gut bacteria metabolize soluble fiber into short-chain fatty acids like butyrate, which get absorbed into the bloodstream. And that’s a good thing because butyrate has anti-inflammatory properties. But let's for a second, say you eat a carrot, which, yes, contains fiber, but it also contains starch.
You’re crunching on that carrot, and the saliva in your mouth starts to break down the starch molecules into smaller starch molecules because of an enzyme called…salivary amylase. If you eat a cracker and chew it long enough before swallowing, it tastes sweet on your tongue because the starch gets broken down to maltose.
So after that, the carrot goes into your stomach, where you have some acid, which deactivates the salivary amylase enzyme mixed in with those little carrot chunks. Then it makes its way to the first section of your small intestine, called the duodenum. Most of the starch is broken down into disaccharides there….maltose. Why? Because the pancreas secretes an enzyme here called pancreatic amylase.
You also have other enzymes located in the small intestine that break down the disaccharides into sugar’s simplest form, monosaccharides, mainly glucose and fructose, and lactose if you consume milk products. The monosaccharides get absorbed from the intestine into the blood, which immediately goes to your liver through your portal vein. The liver will convert fructose and galactose into glucose.
The human body is very efficient when it comes to absorbing sugars. The body uses glucose to provide energy for all sorts of functions, and that’s why the body carefully monitors blood glucose levels. It’s called glucose homeostasis, controlled by the pancreas and liver.
The pancreas secretes two important hormones, insulin, and glucagon when controlling blood glucose levels. When blood glucose increases, such as after eating carbohydrates, insulin is released from the pancreas. Insulin lowers blood glucose by stimulating glucose uptake by tissues, including converting extra glucose into glycogen in the liver and muscles. When blood glucose is low, glucagon is released from the pancreas, which has the exact opposite effects of insulin to raise blood glucose levels.

I don't know if it is because of the dark shirt, or the different background, but in this video, you are incredibly handsome and hot looking! I am jealous of your patients!
I am subscribed to your channel. I’ve bee watching and listening for about a year now. I’m fascinated by how you can keep your tongue from twisting with all those medical terms! 😊 ♥️
you could talk to me allll day in those terms. thanks :)
@@timbrut256 easy tiger.Horny or just a flirt?
I decided to eliminate carbs as much as possible a few months ago. I eat lots of meat, fish, eggs, plain yogurt, and a lot of vegetables. I completely avoid sugar, raw milk, potatoes, rice, breads, fruits, and cereals. I am a 60 year old male, was a little overweight, and have issues with cholesterol, fatty liver, and hypertension. I have also decided to eliminate alcohol 6 months ago. Since Christmas, I have lost over 25 pounds [I haven't been this weight in over 20 years], my blood pressure is much better. I feel great, I think my fatty liver is gone, but am waiting on tests to confirm. My goal is to lose another 10 pounds before slowly adding back some of the carbs I have eliminated from my diet. It has really worked for me.
@Ck Infinity I plan to. It's definitely working for me. The only carbs I might add back are limited amounts of fruit.
Monitor your cardio system. After 10 years it got me high BP and plaque, chest pain. I had to go WFPBSOS to reverse it somewhat after 18 months. My BP was 140/90 now it is 105/70. My BMI was about 22 but after starting WFPBSOS it went to 20.5.
Wow, great accomplishment!
I have been doing Keto for over 6 years. Best choice I have ever made for my body.
Are you monitoring your lipid panel? How has it responded to the keto diet?
He’s right. Refraining from sugar in my mid 30’s was the best decision of my life. I definitely treat myself but 95% of the time my diet doesn’t include carbs. Mental focus improved, more hydrated, clear skin, more social, could go on and on. Incorporating fasting into this equation and it seems to enhance everything more.
Why you = sugar with carbs?
The idea from your last video that you are literally "feeding the cancer cells" really stuck with me. Enjoying the nutritional content.
Hi, which video is it that you are referring? I’d like to watch that one. Thanks in advance!
Yes! Having heard (from the internet) that cancer cells are fed by sugar. 🙀🙀🙀
I've been sugar free since 2017 I don't even miss it anymore if anything I get goosebumps when I see someone eating a donut or any sugary snacks
After suffering 50 years with migraines I eventually was diagnosed with lactose intolerance. Immediately changed my diet without any migraines.
Note: back in the early 1940's lactose sensitivity was not known, no further help was there. Prescribed many meds which did not work forced to suffer with debilitating pain/suffering was intolerable. Decided to stop taking any meds then - at my young age of 80 - have no health issues. ☺️
What an amazing story!
Wow. Lucky you were diagnosed. I remember years ago an experiment where they took a section of a prison off all milk products. They went from aggressive & violent to agreeable lambies overnight.
I wish I could remember where it was.
I was raised like this, my siblings and I thought our parents were crazy! We were not allowed to go to fast food restaurants, eat packaged snacks, or drink sodas and juices that were sold in stores. However, after I started modeling in junior high school, I was okay with not eating those foods. My Home Economics teacher started putting into my head how good I was making clothes and that I should sign up to model them in the school fashion show.
I was convinced to pursue modeling and later, I was chosen to attend a performing arts school. Suddenly, I was okay with not consuming the aforementioned foods and drinks. Then I became an athlete which contributed to my desire to be fit and eat healthy without complaining. After I went to college and graduate school, I learned even more about the importance of eating healthy and the adverse effects of eating so much sugar.
After marriage and a baby, I realized I was becoming my mother while refusing to allow my daughter to eat those same foods and drinks my parents did not allow my siblings and me to eat. So, when people ask me for my secrets to looking so much younger than I am, I respond, "JESUS CHRIST, my parents, eating healthy, exercising, and positive energy."
Of course, they would laugh because they do not believe me and some say, "Nah, it's genetics!" Nope, I am the oldest of seven kids, and everyone tells me I look younger than all of them. Trust me, this video is absolutely correct, I am living proof. My mother is in her 80s, not on prescription drugs, and my grandparents lived to be centenarians! Moreover, my grandparents lived all of their lives up to their mid to late 90s without any prescription drugs.
Trust me, putting GOD first, eating the foods HE gave us (not man made foods), drinking lots of water, making organic homemade juices, exercising, removing stress and toxic people from your life will keep you healthy, youthful, and add longevity.
Just wanted to thank you for taking the time to write this.
@@vicibrahim7263 You are welcome! Many Blessings to you! 🙏🏽
Do you eat meat and fish? Just curious
you are full of chit ... and full of yourself.
ps pls confirm the photo is not yourself, because that is no 'model'
AMEN!!
I have sustained under 30 grams of carbs for 3 years and plan on living like this forever. I am 58 and feel great
Thank you wonderful Doctor. It is hard to eat healty in America, and in Canada. I am European living in Canada. I am shocked how most people here are eating too much, and junk. Even very young women are overweight. Heartbreaking.
Thank you Doctor Mike! I feel like you are reading my mind. Was just thinking about this topic today trying to find the truth!
Excellent info. I found your channel, a few months ago, and I'm really enjoying the content and advice. Thanks so much!
As ALWAYS interesting.☺️ We love you and appreciate you Dr. Mike. 🙏🏼
Congratulations for your 1 million subscribers in your UA-cam channel I am one of those subscribers, thank you for keeping our daily life in good health, your videos are full of interesting information you are the BEST DOCTOR, many blessings take care
I've been obnoxiously sharing & recommending Dr Hansen's video's for years. The studies he reads and simplifies are just mind blowing and in many cases absolutely necessary to know and understand.
Amazing as always! Loved the aging animation at the end! 💪🏽😎
I was immediately ready to start judging when I clicked the video, but I was pleasantly surprised by the good information, and overall great video. Nice, man
This is about the most balanced, sensible advice I've come across. Thank you!
As a former pre diabetic, I avoid most fruit because I spike glucose levels after eating it. I loved raisins, cranberries, watermelon, melon, etc but having them and the high carb starches pushed me further down the road to type 2 diabetes. I am doing well now, but the dietary re think and action had to be done before I totally went into a metabolic meltdown.
Very informative. Love the awesome visual effect at the end too.
Thank you Dr. Hansen for this video, it contains very available information.
Great Summary, thx and congrats for 1M subs
Great information as always. How did you do that trick in the end of the video (changing into your older self!!)... that was amazing.
Thank you for such educational content!
Thank you I always wanted to know about this
‘You da bomb’, Dr. Hansen! Guyton could not have done a better summery overview of CHO digestion. Wonderful teaching tool for my students! Thank you.
This video reminds me of learning biochemistry at my 2nd MB. You can clearly explain the important points of metabolism. Thank you Doctor Mike.
At 72, my heart feels full, hearing videos and Dr.'s like Mike, speak the Informed and accurate Truth about health, biochemistry and nutrition! 50 yrs ago when I received my degree in Biochemistry, opened my eyes to Naturopathy and Wholistic medicine. Unfortunately, it has taken all these years to apply these truths to Scientific and Medical acceptance! 💙
Hey hi Dr.Hansen 🖐 good see you again been awhile, thanks for all your videos you do , Dr.Hansen is awesome and the best take care pal good see you again 👊💪💪💪💪💪
Thank you doctor. Love the topics you choose.
Thank you for explaining it so well!
This is very informative Dr. Mike. Thank you! Also, interesting how you quickly aged there at the end. 😁
Great video. Thank you
Thank you Dr. HANSEN
Very interesting and informative. And a MOST EXCELLENT ending!!
I cut out almost all of the added sugar I was eating. I also stop eating any kind of processed food. In 3 months I lost 30lbs that I wanted to lose. When the good Doctor says sugar is hidden in labels he isn't kidding. Take note of all those names of sugars. You will find them all over the place on food labels to fool you into thinking they have not added any sugar. It's even in Mayo! Dukes Mayo was the only one I found with no added sugar. Salad dressings are also loaded up with sugar. I make my own now. I looked into Keto, but I found that it was A) really hard to stick with, and B) eating the right kind of natural carbs was just as good, and probably healthier.
Dukes is pure fat mate! Fat you eat is the fat you wear! 😄
@@durianriders I'll chose the fat over the sugar any day. If you are going to eat something with mayo...there is gonna be fat. They all have it (oil and eggs...fat)
@@durianriders lol nope, you have old school mentality thst caused the obesity issue in the us. Carbs and sugar are what make you fat.
Went on the Kito diet and my body ate itself. Never going back to sugar containing foods and carb containing foods. Now I eat what I can burn and I feel great. Lots of cruciferous vegetables for salads and cabbage for bread substitute. Yum. It's nice to be thin again and eat as much as I like.
incredible effort
beautiful presentation
authoritative knowlege.
tnx doc
So useful information dr. Hansen and congratulations to 1 million subscribers wishing you to soon reach 2 million ❤️👍🇬🇷
We love you doc! Great edu vid for the masses!
Great video. Thanks Dr. Mike
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing this info about carbs..stay safe Doc.God bless you more
Thx for another informative vlog. Great ending!
Nice finish! Love the pops of humor w a ton of info.
That was a lot of good information. I definitely need to control my sugar intake. Thanks, Dr. Hanson.
I think a lot of us do. They add sugar to everything.
Sugar is toxic! Read the book by Dr Robert Lustig all he talks about is sugar!
Carbs turn to sugar which causes the cravings. Many people that went no carb no longer have these cravings. Here are a few channels if interested: @KenDBerryMD, @ShawnBakerMD, AnthonyChaffeeMD, @NutritionwithJudy. I'm not sure if Keto has the same results but @DoctorBoz is a great Keto channel. Just go to any of these channels and ask about cravings after changing their diet, posting on newer videos will get more attention.
Well done.
Truthful, fair, and balanced.
Packed with all of the basic facts about sugar including that it ages you.
Thank you very much Dr , 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️
Awesome video, thanks! It takes courage to stand up against the industrial superpowers that don't want this kind of information to be public knowledge
Thank u so much for the information. God Bless.🇨🇦🙏🙏👌👍
Great video doc ,good to know your great !!!!!
Great topic! Is there one on thyroid health you can provide education about such has foods to avoid. I love cabbage and cauliflower but it is contraindicated in people with low TSH. Thank you
Actually i want say, on my experience.... Leave sugar giving miracle on my healthy... I looking forward for the true nutrition science... U all is the best science squad i ever seen...
Love the teachings,
😀
Nothing but the truth. Thanks for this informative video.
Thanks you so much
6:31: If I'm not mistaken, when you eat 0 carbs the body can function quite well by burning fat instead ("ketosis").
You are the thinking person’s “Doctor Mike”. Thank you for your excellent content.
Thank you.
Nice touch at the end 😂
Great video❤️
Excellent video!
Look at you adding an FX to your video! Nice 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for that visual explanation of how my food is broken down and absorbed into my bloodstream. It's always been difficult to understand what my pancreas and liver did for me in that process.
Very organized to the topic
Ok Monk Fruit? Never mind "justifying" thanks 😊 again! No added sugar since 2008 still I'm insulin intolerant, a few 10 or less 🤔 consumption (honey, or sucrose) but my body has gotten use to my diet change. Very informative 👏 I can only try to incorporate this information. Your the best. Thank you!
Thanks Dr Hansen for ur great info and a funny ending. Lol. Hope to see another video about diabetes 2 for old people 😊
Good video Doc
Very Educational for everyone , as we know having high sugar intake is not healthy, Doctor Mike great insight further review on how much we should consume , Thanks you, I start cut back, we all should 🙏🍒🍓🥝🍇🥭 good ,not too much allowing the body to break sugar down faster
Great episode
Removed most carbs and sugars at beginning of pandemic. Lost the 12 pounds I'd always wanted to.
Also have been IF and never felt better at 66!
Thank you. I needed that I put way too much weight on when the pandemic started and I'm trying to lose weight now.
That was a quite fine summary of carbohydrate metabolism of a human system. I studied nutrition as a secondary subject at the uni, so I dare to add following: 1) Did you mention that carbohydrates are divited as sugars ( mono- and disaccharides) and polysaccharides (three or more monosaccahride units linked together with different kind of bonds)(?) 2) Brain mainly use glucose as their energy source. If you don't eat carbohydrates at all, you probably don't get enough glucose as a digestion product. So your kidneys and liver have to create glucose from skeletons derived from certain aminoacids via pathway called gluconeogenesis. And if your blood sugar level is too low, your end up suffering shortage of neurotransmitters in the synapses between your nerve cells. That' s why in hypoglycemia your brain is fuctioning poorly. 3) Soluable fiber (from apples, berries, grains etc.) forms a gel with water in your stomach. This delays empting the stomach, food passaging of the digestive tract and slows down the glucose absorption in small intestine, so that your blood sugar level won't peak up. Soluable fiber with gel formation also makes you feel fuller and perhaps prevents you eating too much at one time. 4) HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) is cheaper to use than grainy sugar. So HFCS is used in soft drinks (like cola) and candy. Using/getting too much fructose can lead obesity, insulin resistance (developing of type 2 diabetes) and fatty liver disease.
Did you watch the video?? The first thing he talks about is glucose, fructose, disaccharides and polysaccharides! Just watch the video!
@@mellie4174 Yes I did watch it, but did you read my comment? As the legendary " opus of Owen R. Fennema "Food chemistry" teaches you mono- and disaccharides are considered as sugars in food chemistry. I'll repeat monosaccharides and disaccharides= sugars! Three on more monosaccharide ( glucose, mannose,galactose etc.) linked together are considered broadly as polysaccharides. Disaccharides (lactose, maltose, saccarose) consist two monosaccaride-units bond together. Monosaccharides can be divided as hexoses and pentoses, depending on how many carbon atoms are in their ringstructure. Position of the chiral carbon atom tells you is it a D-or L- monoccarides. Actually the division is: Carbohydrates = sugars (mono- and disaccharides),
+ oligosaccharides (3-10 monosaccharide units linked together) + polysaccharides (more than 10 monosaccharide units Iinked together.)
Our small intestine absorbs glucose. To get energy out of glucose it has to be converted first through glycolysis to puryvate/puryvic acid. Then the pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA, which goes through reaction pathway called citric acid cycle/ Krebbs cycle/ three carboxcylic acid cycle. Glycolysis form from 1 glucose unit 2 ATP molecules and and 1 puryvic acid. Krebs cycle forms 2 CO2-molecules, 3 NADH, 1 FADH2 and 1 GTP from 1 pyryvic acid. Electrons derived from NADH and FADH2 combines with O2 to produce energy in a form of ATP. So to get energy effectively out of glucose-molecule it has to go through 1) Glycolysis, 2) TCA-cycle and 3) oxidative phosforylation.
If you do not eat carbohydrates, your nerve cells still need glucose as their main energy source. Then your body uses certain amino acids to produce glucose. Then the reaction pathway used is gluconeogenesis. As an internist, doctor Mike Hansen knows this very well. But I do not recall him mentioning this process - gluconeogenesis. (He did not include it in his video.) So you do need carbs, as Dr Mike Hansen said. But you do not need saccarose.
And you should not eat candy and consume a lot of soft drinks containing HFCS. Usage of high-fructose corn syrup is restricted in the EU-area, for health reasons. Some experts are considering HFCS more harmful to your body than saccharose.
Sorry to disturbe you all the watcher of Dr Mike Hansen, who's broad area of expertise I appreciate very much. I won't be bothering you with my comments on nutrion or food chemistry anymore.
Dude, that age filter at the end caught me way off guard, especially with that sinister smile. Lol 🤣 good stuff.
Ultimately, feed the body protein and essential fats. Feed the gut some whole food carbs.
nice, Mike, thanks
Ouch! The way you aged at the end! Good summary, still looking to find a diet that can take the weight off like keto. I tried intermittent fasting, but the 12-12 definitely doesn’t work. The 16-8 will take more discipline.
i love this doc
💚🏜️ I appreciate the detailed carb explanation. This video is a good gateway to keto and carnivore. Once you realize you can live without carbs and FEEL BETTER, you start seeing what else is standing in the way of your health.
Absolutely! 💚🏝 Health is always at the priority (even lost the rice bowl due to the mandatory vaccination policy)! 🙏🍀🍀🍀
It can also be helpful to think of food as not just something you enjoy eating but also fuel for the day. If your day is mostly sitting at a desk, the total energy need is a lot less than if you're burning 4000 calories on a 100 mile bike ride. Sugars and simple carbs might be great for providing the most energy during intense exercise, but sitting at a desk doesn't need that fuel and it's just going to get stored for later as a bigger waistline
Thank you for such an informative video. Sugar is such a hot-button issue right now and you have used science to explain it and it makes so much sense. I wish that more people would understand this and maybe we as Americans wouldn’t suffer from so much metabolic disease!
He contradicts himself 3 times in the video though.
@@durianriders give references if you don't mind.
@@durianriders I didn't see any contradictions. Example?
maybe if we got off our lazy asses and walked more.
@@jhoughjr1 LOL Now you're just talking crazy.
Thanks!
Welcome!
Quality content. The aging effect of sugar is powerfully motivating, but some would argue that it’s the excess calories from any source that speed aging, not sugar itself. Would love to see a video exploring that.
@jcorb yes they do because they spike insulin
@jcorb You make no sense. Carbohydrates spike insulin more than animal proteins. Protein only spikes insulin if you consume large quantities like let’s say you eat 2 whole big chicken. Not only that, eating in general spikes insulin no matter what you consume. Protein and fats provide more stable insulin than grains. Grains like rice, pasta, bread elicit a greater insulin response than eating fish like sea bream, salmon etc. More so, when protein has fats the insulin response is far lower like eggs, salmon, mackerel, ribeye steaks etc
@jcorb So what you’re trying to say is not to eat animal protein? How would we get our protein then? Protein is vital for rebuilding the cells of the body
@jcorb Lentils are anti nutrients, they spike insulin so much because they’re a carbohydrate
Thank you, doctor. Loved the very end where you got old.
Yes, doctor Mike. I need sugar. It tastes good. My Chinese sign is Ox. One of the traits for this sign is it munch a lot. If you ever see those ox, even at work it still munch on grasses available. On side of the road, between rice terraces while plowing the field. So, as for me, I snack a lot. My mouth miss the taste. Nit because my body needs it.
I went keto years ago changed my life and never been better
Thank you!! You make the best videos ever!
Thanks
Great video even if I didn't understand 80% of the words you said. Loved the visuals you put to the video. I could relate to the woman pinching her FAT. I talked to my doctor and I basically know what I need to do. If I cut back on the junk I think I can lose at least a pound a week. I still don't feel comfortable going to the gym with all the people. Our mall opens up at 6:00 AM to "Mall Walkers". The stores are empty, but you can walk inside the air conditioned Mall. I loved your aging photo at the end. I did not expect that...LOL.
@@debbiec6216 Thanks! I am definitely going to try that!
Most doctors have no clue about nutrition. If your doctor suggested avoiding red meat and saturated fat then they have no clue and should not be taken seriously. When eating saturated fat and red meat you can have before and after pictures like @semiretiredbob and @FerrignoFreedom and many more.
I’m 75 year old and my A1c is at 5.5 so I’m no longer pre-diabetic by quitting desserts and other sugary foods. In 2020, I was A1c 5.9, 2021, 5.7 and 2022, 5.5 . My new problem is kidney disease due to my BP. Would you please do talk about improving kidney health? Thanks

Great video packed with information. Thanks for this.
Yes I do.
Can you tell the best omega 3 supplements, please? There are lots of brands. But have no idea which one is the from original cold sea fish. Thanks.
Loool that last aging thing was funny!!!
It will be hard giving up my sweet tea. I do use the sugar substitute whenever i make it homemade.
You don't have to give it up if you use stevia, monk fruit or erythritol to sweeten.
Very helpful. Could you please also talk about the difference between each of the sugars? The good and the bad ones, for example molasses vs. sweet corn syrup. TIA
There's no such thing as a good sugar and bad sugar. They're equal in calories and equal in what it does to the body. The only difference is some sugars might have a very, very small amount of nutritional value such as maybe molasses with iron
@@Livetoeat171 what about honey ?
@@soul2197 They all spike glucose which is a problem. They may have benefits but those benefits probably aren't worth the damage the glucose spikes are causing.
Super good video
Trying to balance low impact diet (mostly vegetarian), with weight loss and love of sugar 😅
Hahaha! Loved the ending! :D
I avoid fructose as much as I can, also seed oils (prefer coconut for cooking and olive oil for salads) . Unprocessed or minimally processed carbs (steelcut oats, rolled oats, red rice) I eat in moderation (they still have calories in them). They have good fiber in them. Am not on a strict keto diet (sometimes i eat keto meals, at times i still have carbs but try to consume less than 100 grams per day, typically 50 to 75 grams) but I maintain intermittent fasting, sometimes 12 hrs, 14 hrs , 16 hrs, at times 24 hours and occasionally 36 hours.
@Model941 Digestible carbs turn to sugar which spikes glucose so is not beneficial. Neither carbs or fiber are required to be healthy.
Wow! They ending of this video was great!!! Because SUGAR is addictive … perhaps a video to help reduce sugar from meals is in order.
Dr. Hansen, You are so good and funny. I like your humor. 🤗🌞👍
why ingest even good carbs if your body can produce them via gluconeogenesis? (not rhetorical, genuinely interested in finding out why)
on the keto vitamin/mineral deficiency, how would one become like that if everything you mentioned containing those vitamins/minerals is keto friendly? doesn't make sense to me.
also, people that eat high sugar/carb diets are 100% at the very least, vitamin deficient, given sugars/carbs cause the depletion of these in your body.
so I'm glad you mentioned no one ever needs sugar for anything but I don't understand why the negative keto remarks if they're not properly supported.
thanks for the good video!
Because fruits, vegetables legumes and whole grains are the healthiest foods for humans
@@larryc1616 Tautology. Not true.
I’m on keto now and I currently have really good markers of those minerals and vitamins, specially vitamins B since I introduced some beef liver (not large amounts), and I do eat a lot of vegetables but the carbs are mostly fiber. I’m 100% sure the amount of carbs you need to eat per day is 0, we eat plant for the other nutrients in them
Look into carnivore diet
