      @D R I used to think I've the same problem as you except #2. Firstly add the following supplements magnesium glycinate, potassium, chromium and zinc (after checking with doc). Your sugar cravings will disappear. Eat 100-120g of total carbs per day (wholegrain, A2 Milk, cottage cheese, A2 whey protein, leafy greens and veggies, seeds & nuts). Make sure to eat enough protein and fiber and healthy fats (chia seeds at least 10 g per day, nuts etc). Do intermittent fasting 12-16 hours daily. Keep up the exercise routine. You'll easily lose weight and also feel great.

    TOFI, that was me! Tall and skinny, by the time I was 50 I had a small tummy, by the time I was 60 my tummy was bothering me and I knew I had to do something. I was over 200 pounds at 6'3". Most guys this height weight much more. I went Keto at age 68, just turned 70 now at 170 lbs and feeling better than I can ever remember feeling. I still have a tiny little roll of tummy right now but I am not stopping until it is gone and I will keep it gone. I always figured somehow my body was able to burn off sugars so eating a whole pack of oreos was nothing to me. For years my body put up with this, I am so glad I found out about sugar when I did. My body completely reversed all bad things, YOU CAN DO IT TOO.

    Well, from my experience it's not so easy to fix when working 11 hours per day.
    However, after retiring in 2020, I lost 45 pounds in 1 year and got back to BMI normal. It wasn't easy, but weightloss and fitness are my full time job as a retiree. So, the big difficulty in my experience is losing weight when employed.

    I started listening to this and I was in awe of what was being said. After 25 min's I had to drag and try to skip all the insulting talk, the scientific talk because i wondered where you were going with this. People who gain weight they KNOW they gained weight. I wondered how it was so easy to fix but I don't think you ever make that point. Everyone knows when they're eating bad food but the whole American diet is awful. I follow a guy by the name of Bobby Perrish to try and learn what food to buy and why. He picks out what food, what the ingredients are, what I need to not put in my body, he shops for me by showing me what to avoid because we are always being tricked when we shop.

      It’s a simple fix but it may not be too easy to accomplish, especially if you try to make the changes all at once and do it on your own. This is why a lot of doctors offices now have health coaches. Pick ONE thing to improve upon and start there. Once that change feels good and is becoming more of a habit, make another change for the better, and so on and so on. Once you start feeling better for theses changes it becomes far easier. You feel SO much better that you won’t want to go back to your old ways.

      I've heard that sugar is 3x more addictive than cocaine. I hope that you discover the way for you to overcome this. I'm cheering for you, Sharon.
      BTW, the profile of gut microbiome within us is probably the #1 reason behind sugar addiction. The bad bacteria which love simple sugar release chemicals which affect our brain and mood. This reinforces the feedback loop and drives the addiction. If a person could swap out their intestinal microbiome, then it might have an immediate and dramatic effect on the psychological components related to sugar (among other things). To transition to better gut microbiome, you could begin to phase out sugar and use Xylitol instead, and start steadily adding a good fiber like Inulin to your diet to promote the growth of "good" bacteria.
      There is the wild fecal implant therapy to consider. I've not met anyone who's done it, but the results seem to be incredible.

    My saving grace has been fresh vegetable curries with loads of greens: fenugreek, moringa, cilantro, parsley, spinach, swiss chard, kale, cabbage, zucchini, calaloo, carrot, beet, tomato, along with various pulses: chick pea, spilt pea, lentils, black, pink, butter, pinto, or kidney beans that I consume as a heavy soup, on occasion adding milk, fat free being acceeptable for flavor; for which I prepare layers of culinary and medicinal herbs, sometimes daily, such as fresh tumeric, and ginger root, garlic, onion, cumin, coriander, cloves, thyme, oregano, sumac, fennel seeds, kalonji, basil seed, sesame seed, pumpkin seed, guaje (Mexican), peanuts, all sorts of peppers: chile, poblanos, jalapeno, dried sometimes substituting cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, or allspine, with perhaps a small potato, either white or sweet, whole grains of: amaranth, rye berries, quinoa, millet, buckwheat, brown rice, oats, faro; sometimes adding kombu, and mushrooms, fresh everyday, also red Reishi (which must me simmered, of course.) This breakfast before my expresso laté that follows forty-five miutes later has greatly stabilized my gut microbiome and reduced cravings for starch and sugar globally because the waters that the vegetables bring from deep inside the electro-magnetic resonance of the earth promotes balance and greater realms of vibtational receptivity in consciousness.

      A lot of keto advocates will tell you either not to count carbs of green leafy vegetables (e.g. eat as much broccoli as you want, it won't spike insulin or kick you out of ketosis) or that fibre is not important. I faced a similar dilemma when starting keto and now I just don't worry about green leafy vegetables, I eat as much or little as I feel, life is pretty sad if you have to restrict the amount of cabbage you are eating.

    Nobody ever told me about this not even once. The doctors give me stuff for high blood presure but do zero actual doctoring. Just to say I have started on a new eating plan changing my diet. Stopping intake of carbs was not so easy. After a few days I was going through withdrawals, my body didn't like it. Since then and after some thought decided on replacing carbs with protein is the best route to go. So replaced pasta and rice with lentils and lupin splits, things like that. Mung beans soaked for a day in water throw them in the pot to replace pasta and rice. So it has been one week. Stopping the sweet treats is also difficult. That is very difficult to give up suddenly so to resolve it I give myself a treat in the weekends and once midweek. I think it is still too much of the sweet treats but better than I was maybe; I will get that under control at least I started. In the meantime the belly fat is not moving to the site but my physical output is much more able, after tackling the steep hill I need to climb to get to the local food market. It is an nogoing thing but am taking it seriously. I will see how much my blood presure has goine down after at this time next month. So far so good but I am not happy about paying out to some doctor do nothing so will not be going to a doctor because I no longer trust them here in Western Australia. They sold us to Pfyzer who made 100 Billion from us and 24 Million for their CEO. As for our doctors they made heaps from it also and so did the pharmicist's who I am not quick to trust either.

    Thanks doctors. I'm 39 and Asian and I went through many of the topics you talked about. I wish the whole world would just learn about this. The medical information you have shared to date in all your videos are important and real. People need to listen and follow what you have been teaching and sharing. These are the root answers to most of the health problems people are facing. Why does it take someone being sick and told you have anxiety and to go on meds for the person to finally give functional medicine our ears. Please practice what functional medicine is teaching. I remember when I had major inflammation and burns throughout my body after my 3rd C Section and other issues I sought a top allergist he took a quick look across the room at my hanging belly. Took blood work and said I have Uticaria. That doctor told me to take 2 pills of Zyrtec and 2 - 75 ml Zantac. Then he proceeded to say if that doesn't work I would need monthly shots for the rest of my life with each shot costing $750 dollars and to check with my insurance for help. I self taught myself what functional medicine preaches today without even knowing what functional medicine is. I just listened to my body.. ..there were points I had suicide in my mind because of my pain. Fast forward 3 years later I found and listened to your UA-cam videos and cried saying where was all of this information when I needed it. People need to know more about this. Our medical system, practices, and doctors need to stop making this life about business and money. Provide real care like you really care. Lastly that top allergist doctor had the nerve to tell me oh I only eat organic foods. That was his one only statement but he meant it as a comment and compliment to himself. Which made me realized doctors do know functional medicine but they don't care to share with you. Thank you Mark you are my health super hero.

    Don't eat sugar and simple carbohydrates because it will make you fat with adipose fat in your belly, and that adipose fat causes many negative physiological changes to the body that cause many conditions such as insulin resistance, which causes all that excess glucose in the blood stream to be stored in fat cells rather than metabolized into energy to fuel the body, and at the same time also prevents the breaking down of the energy stored in those fat cells into available energy to fuel the body. This also leads to diseases such as autoimmune diseases and cancers, which lead to a lower quality of life, and ultimately lead to early death.
    So, all you have to do is eat well, avoiding sugar and simple carbohydrates, and exercise continually, including at least two days a week of resistance training, aka weight lifting. Unfortunately, almost all of the food available to the US food consumer is processed, what is the factoid... 80% of the calories sold in grocery stores are derived from corn or high fructose corn syrup... so, the available food is loaded with sugars and simple carbohydrates, and most people in the US are stressed out beyond belief and are unable, or are barely able to meet the time and financial demands of every day, and that is without the time spent constantly shopping for fresh, non-processed foods, without the excess time preparing those foods into caustic tasting meals that no one in the family wants to eat, and finally committing a substantial amount of time each day to exercising.
    So, what are we supposed to do? We simply have to totally change our lives.
    That simply requires quitting a professional career that requires at least 60 hours a week to barely cover the mortgage, the purchase of energy, including electric, natural gas and petroleum, other utilities like internet and smart phone etc., about 20 types or required insurances for every aspect of our lives, including hugely expensive health insurance for every member of the family, and taxes, like tax on our income, then a flat tax on what we spend that income on, tax on our property, tax on all those required utilities, tax at the city level, the county level, the state level and the federal level (perhaps we'll soon have to pay international taxes to cover pressing demands like hoaxy pandemic response taxes, you think I'm kidding, just wait, and remember this random comment on YT!). Then there are the educational expenses, like our six figure debt for our own education that gave us access to our career we just quit, but also private schooling our children so they have a chance of learning, rather than wasting away in a school populated by unreared children, who are largely irretrievably sociopathic by the second grade, consuming popular media like the torture genre of movies, music where sex, violence, drug use and status are the only topics discussed, and are portrayed as life's only ideals, and video games that are very purposefully and successfully designed to produce the exact neurochemical response in the brain to induce maximum addiction, addiction which is indistinguishable from street drug addictions, which leads to arrested intellectual and emotional development, narcissistic tendencies, an inability to focus attention for more than 10 seconds (if that), social isolation due to the inability to form or sustain interpersonal relationships, and ultimately, a nihilistic world view where nothing has meaning, even human life.
    But even then, the private schools are now also being inundated with the same caliber of student, as while their parents care about their children, evidenced by the payment of crushing fees to educate them, these overworked parents simply do not have the time in the day to spend any meaningful time with their children due to the demands of their careers. And, of course, both parents must work now to afford the basic necessities of life, so no one is available to rear children.
    We can then withdraw our children from these hugely expensive private schools, enroll them in the pre-prison public school institutions where the remaining curriculum is anti-white, anti-American, anti-christian, anti-capitalism, and anti-male, then switch to a low paying part time job requiring only 20 hours a week so that we can spend the extra time necessary to eat diets containing no sugars or simple carbohydrates, which includes all the excess time shopping, and preparing that food, and then also spending the additional time exercising on a daily basis. The catch though, is that these actually non-toxic, nutritious, non-processed foods are too expensive to afford on a part time, low wage job.
    SO then, maybe we can make the same job switch, going from a full time job of 60 hours a week to part time job of 20 hours a week so that we can grow our own food requiring the purchase of a sizeable piece of arable land, which we can't do because we can't afford it, a few thousand hours of study into agricultural sciences, which we can't do because we can't afford it, the purchase of hugely expensive (thank you epa) farming equipment, which we can't do because we can't afford it. All this to get fresh food that isn't loaded with toxicity at every level from chemical to microbial, but then we have to contend with the reality that the air that our plants resperate is toxic, the water we irrigate our plants with is toxic, both intentionally and unintentionally, and even the soil that we grow our plants in is toxic, all of which concentrate those toxins into our own grown food, and when we eat that food, those toxins are concentrated in our tissue, producing innumerable negative health consequences, up to and including early death.
    I mean, do I really need to go on as to why everybody is fat, unhappy and ill?
    Again, it is as if these doc's are simply saying, "Let them not eat cake!" I really enjoy their glib attitudes, such positivity!

    Or you get rid of oils from your diet and limits nuts to one ounce per day and lower the fat inside the cells that blocks insulin. Whole foods, plant based, no oils or sugar has allowed me to lose 30 pounds in 6 months. Would have been more but half the time I was eating several pounds of nuts per week. Sauté with a couple of tablespoons of water instead of oil. Again, too many lipids inside the cell blocks insulin. I was paleo, (can't do keto because of fat malabsorption) and eating more veggies improved many things, but whole food, plant based no oil, flours or sugar, eating all I want and losing weight. A good portion low carb veggies and greens. I do berries for fruit because of their lower gylcemic index.

    Hyman: (roughly) "Whole wheat foods are better to prevent insulin spikes." BUT IN REALITY: Whole Wheat bread has a substantially higher glycemic index... Why do slightly fraudy MD's, and just all MD's in general always recommend whole wheat bread over white bread when whole wheat bread has a higher glycemic index, which causes higher circulating glucose levels, which in turn causes an insulin spike to handle the excessive amounts of glucose, which causes the parade of terribles.
