    What he didn't talk about was that added sugars, especially high-fructose corn syrup, are more readily stored as fat in the liver itself leading to fatty liver disease, they produce AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products) which directly damage cells, and they cause a systemic inflammation response resulting in vessel damage and many other disorders.
    It's excess refined sugar and HFCS that actually cause many of the heart and vascular conditions blamed on dietary cholesterol. Cholesterol is a vital substance which your body actually needs and literally produces on its own. But when excess sugar damages your vessels, cholesterol is part of the body's attempts to fix the problem. When you keep your body in a constant state of inflammation, cholesterol builds up and can result in atherosclerosis, heart damage, etc.

    Well done for telling people that sugar isn't bad so long as you dont take excessive amounts of it and get plenty of exercise. I'm 85 and have consumed a kilo every 6 or 7 weeks throughout my life except during the war when it was rationed, and it has done me no harm. I take it mainly in my tea and burn it off with exercise, so it doesn't make me gain weight. I can still wear the same clothes now that I wore 60 years ago. I dont have any medical conditions to complicate the issue. I go for a 4 mile run once a week and do plenty of walking. Fruit and veg is an important part of my diet.

      Obviously, it’s still possible to lose weight on any diet - just eat fewer calories than you burn, right? The problem with this simplistic advice is that it ignores the elephant in the room: hunger. Most people don’t like to “just eat less,” as it may result in having to go hungry forever. Sooner or later, many will likely give up and eat without restriction, hence the prevalence of “yo-yo dieting.” While it should be possible to lose weight on any diet, some appear to make it easier and some to make it much harder.
      The main advantage of the low-carb diet is that it may cause you to want to eat less. Even without counting calories, overweight people tend to eat fewer calories on low carbs. Thus, calories count, but you don’t need to count them.

I have even seen improvements in my Autoimmune symptoms. Everything I was told about the dangers of low carb and ketogenic way of eating has been proven to be a lie.

A couple of my best takeaways are "You don't need to count calories, just make calories count" meaning avoid empty calories and the "double edged sword of malnutrition", or the tendency to consume too many calories and not enough vitamins, minerals, etc. And the other is "self control is really self care" meaning we make better decisions when we're really taking care of our bodies and not stressing them out, pushing them to their survival instincts. Take care of yourselves friends! I'm hoping the beat for you

    I think this video actually helped me understand why I'm hyperglycemic; I've always been on the taller and skinnier side, quite lean with a somewhat toned amount of muscle. It's extremely difficult for me to gain a significant amount of fat and I've never been fat or able to put on large amounts of it. So it seems that, if my body is unable to store that much glycogen in my muscles or my liver, and I am unable to remove the glucose from my blood by turning it into fat, then much more of my glucose would remain in my blood then the average person who can put on more fat than I can, hence the tendency for my blood sugar levels to be high and for me to be hyperglycemic/prediabetic. I'm trying to understand anatomy and my body better so I can adjust my diet and daily eating habits to better lower my blood sugar level so I can avoid developing Type 2 Diabetes, so this video has been somewhat helpful.

      I stopped eating anything with added sugar in boxes or sodas. Regular soda is bad with the added sugar. I drink diet coke and water only. Ever since I left the added sugars and got my sugars from berries and veggies I have felt better. Avoid anything that has added sugar. Theres snacks with sugar free but those are bad too but not nearly as bad as regular table sugar.

      Yeah. For example if I buy a whole piece of cheese (haha that rhymes xD ) there´s no sugar in it. But if I buy the same cheese presliced, sugar has been added. Same with sausage for bread. The sugar helps to maintain color and keep the food from becoming bad.

    • @cvgodd1432

      So true.. I just try to avoid the obvious ones like candy, soda and most juice. A can of Pepsi has a ridiculous amount of sugar. I can barely finish a can but some people will drink 7 to 10 of them a day and wonder why they’re fat. Soda needs to be regulated more, there should be a limit on the sugar they can put. This is what causes severe obesity, food can only get you so big. I never met a obese person who doesn’t drink a ton of soda. One thing my mom did was stop buying soda for the house and she will buy a few bottles of juice. She would say if you want it go buy it yourself, I’m never buying soda for the house again. All my friends would always tell me I never have anything to eat in my house. My parents didn’t buy junk food, everything had to be cooked. If they did buy some junk food my brother would demolish it in one sitting! Lol I was always 150 to 170 lbs at 6 ft I recently got to 190. The lockdown really got to me lol.

Moreover, I’m looking forward to watching your insulin and diabetes video. Thank you for the excellent topic.

      Diabetes is a barrier between blood sugar and glycogen storage. Type 1 is caused by a weak and failing pancreas (usually the immune system has attacked it) that doesn't produce insulin (in significant quantities if at all). Type 2 is the cells are unresponsive to insulin - usually because the receptor sites are clogged up with fat.

    This has been very helpful and clear. I eat healthy 99% of the time though so I can replenish my body with nutrients, just eating sugar (which typically comes in high amounts) causes oxidative stress on your cells making the aging process speed up. As well as not eating foods rich in antioxidants (such as donuts, that basically have no nutrients or antioxidants) isn't going to ve good for anyone. Micro nutrients such as the B vitamins also help with energy conversion so if you eating food high in sugar (again mainly junk) you won't really feel energetic or motivated.

    The main problem with sugar is when it's consumed the same time as fat. The fat blocks it's intended absorption and the sugar is redirected as a radical into the bloodstream causing inflammation. So it's best to keep your fat consumption separate. I reserve fats and complex carbohydrates to dinner and have no sugars during or afterwards, no desert!

Most men over 35 have used a pill out of necessity to function sexually when they could be doing exercises to combat the effects of erectile dysfunction. Oh and stopping porn use helps with erectile dysfunction because of the dopamine dumps.

    Great video on exercise. I'm at the gym 12 hours a week, no socializing, workout. I've got a better pump than 99% of the men in there at any age. I'm 67 years old. Getting back to this video. I cook everything I eat, never eat out, and NO processed foods and no table sugar. However, I consume 400- 450 apples and 70 to 90 bananas a week. I looked at the video to see if I was doing the right thing with all the fruit. What's your take on the fruit?

    • @tia8527
      @tia8527 Рік тому +4

      I'm not a professional in any sense of the word, but I have a general understanding of nutrition. Fructose, the sugar in fruit, breaks down the same way refined sugar does. HOWEVER, the rate of absobtion can be slowed due to the fibre consumed just by eating a fruit. This, along with general bowel health, is why eating a fruit is better than drinking fruit juice. Fruit also has the benefit of vitamins, which play a role in general bodily function and motabolism. The amount of fruit had typically means less than it's weight. Where I'm from, a serve of fruit is considered to be 250g or the approximate size of 2 of your own handfuls, and you'd want to have at least 2 of those per day, coming to about 3.5kg or 28 handfuls worth of fruit in a week.
      If you're concerned you might be consuming too much fruit from a sugar perspective, I do suggest speaking with your doctor or a registered dietician - in the abcense of funding for those, I always encourage intuative eating for the sake of stable health. This isn't eating whatever you please, but considering how the food you eat makes you feel physically and emotionally, and why. For example, I feel annoyed if I've eaten the same food over and over again, so I have to make efforts to change what food I have, or how I have it in order to stop myself from eating easy foods filled with sugars and the like. Paying attention to when you get full, to when you feel like eating, and to how each food makes you feel is best when eating for health. Quantity matters less as each individual body is slightly different. But try to speak to a proper health professional if you can.
      Edit: worth a mention I wrote this before watching the video - you comment caught my eye. I'm sorry if I've restated things that had already been adressed.
      Some additions I'd like to make after watching the video:
      -I'm honestly impressed you eat so many fruits given how fibre works to make you feel fuller for longer.
      -As mentioned, eating the fruit with other foods (like more complex sugars, protiens, higher fibre content foods) can change the absobtion rate. Or switch out the fruits for sweet vegetables (like carrots) that are objectively lower in sugars.
      -You should still see a doctor or registered dietician to get a proper evaluation of your diet in general. I imagine they might have some concerns and take your bloods, but it's always worth dicussing with someone who knows your situation and knows what they're talking about.

    I had hives on my upper arms for 30-40 YEARS! If I didn’t scratch myself bloody during the day, I did it while sleeping. There were nights I itched so bad that I never slept. I went to every doctor I could think of general practice, neurologist, allergist, dermatologist, on an on. I was put on Gabapentin which caused weight gain, and I was totally miserable. One day a chiropractor told me the scars on my arms looked like her mothers, and her mother stopped eating sugar for a week and a half, and all the hives went away. Done!

      Omg... I started getting this rash on my arms and they have become extremely itchy and I have red sores all over them. It looks horrible. I knew I needed to cut down on carbs and sugar because it's causing inflammation and making me feel lousy, but I just realized that maybe it's the cause of my rash. I've looked all over the internet for a cause or a name for it and I can't find anything similar. I'm cutting out sugar completely tomorrow and see if that gets rid of this damn rash!

    Also the other benefit of eating complex carbohydrates over simple sugars is that the digestive process is more complex requiring more energy spent by the body to break them down to their monosaccharides constituents, thereby preventing that calorie excess which comes from easily digestible sugars.

    What I'm missing here is the issue of _refined_ sugar. It is not sugar per se that is dangerous, it's the refined version, which can be absorbed very quickly. This triggers an insulin surge, and can be one of the factors for Type 2 diabetes because the cells develop a tolerance for insulin. Sugar in fruit and natural foods is absolutely fine. For one, there is not much of it compared to the other stuff like fibre. A litre of orange juice contains juice from 2kg of oranges - you can easily drink a litre of juice, you'll struggle to eat 2kg of oranges. It also isn't as immediately available as the refined sugar. A significant part of the sugar is locked within the cells of your fruit and veg, and it takes time to break this matrix down and absorb the sugar. And you get all that fibre as well (juicing is stupid, ask any dietician).

    • @thebraininsideahead

      sugar is sugar your body is trying to refine it when it breaks it down with digestion that is refined sugar and right when at the instannce in the moment you absorb it it is refined and your body wants to absorb the refined version because thats what it is trying to do when your body goes through the process becoming processed sugar and at the given time when its done breaking down the fibre there is o way you're not absorbing the same refined sugar as you would straight from the bag thats what your body is goiing for anyways it prefers it youre trying to give yourself direct access to the straight up available sugar and in the end that is what you get your body extracts it all the same you don't need to have a filter your body is 100% efficient at utilizing sugar , the sugar phobic community is insane.

      @@thebraininsideahead Try using some interpunction, this is outright painful to read and makes your comment seem even sillier than it is already.
      *Of course* sugar is sugar, and at the point when it is being used in your body there is no difference whether it came from an apple or from a bag of sugar, but there is bloody well a difference in terms of how it is absorbed within your body. Which is the whole bloody point of my post. When you consume refined sugar it goes into your metabolism all at once, and your body has to work hard to keep this surge down, counteracting it by a surge of insulin and converting it into fatty tissue. But when the sugar is released slowly - as is the case when you're digesting fruit and vegetables - there is no emergency and the sugar gets consumed during the normal operation of the body. You surely *must* understand the difference between downing a bottle of wine, and drinking it with a meal during the course of an evening, don't you?
      There is nothing "sugar phobic" in my comment, quite the opposite: I'm stating that the bad consequences of consuming sugar are not connected to all types of sugar, and that you *CAN* consume it from the fruit and vegetables without problems. You can also consumed refined sugar without problems, but only when you're doing heavy exercise and burn it off immediately. So do us all a favour and learn to read (and write) before embarrassing yourself with such a comment.
