I have lost 40 lbs in 4 months. I started cutting out sugar then I watch a video from Robert Lustig which changed my whole perspective. I bought his book Metabolically. Then I started intermittent fasting and walking. I will never eat the same again. Thanks for having these informational videos, you are changing the lives of so many
Congratulations, thats awesome. I did the same 3 1/2 years ago. Lost more than 90 lbs, been able to maintain my weight loss. I've been doing what you're doing, no soft drinks, no sugar, no highly processed foods. Intermittent fasting, eat whole/living foods , and exercise I enjoy, walks, biking, getting into weights/resistance training now. It becomes a very sustainable lifestyle and you feel amazing doing it. I'll never go back...

Dr. Rangan always has great guest!!! Avoid bad carbs ...bread, cookies, pastries, juices. Walk daily and only drink water. I also do intermittent fasting it has helped me drastically.
And not vilifying all bread, yes if processed bread but bread can be healthy too and even high protein in some cases, great for balance with eggs/avocado for breakfast.
I went from 280 lbs. to 194 lbs. in 6 and a half months and almost every day in that time I drank orange juice, apple cider, ate high sugar yogurt and fruit mainly grapes, and ate rye bread. What I did cut out was drinking massive amounts of juice with high fructose corn syrup, Coke with high fructose corn syrup, fast food and TV dinners, I was consuming all these things almost every day for many many years. I also cut WAY back on ice cream and the Italian ices, Snickers bars & all that. My heart trouble is past me so I'm drinking Coke again but never the cans with corn syrup it's always the glass bottles and I'm doing the pizza again, I make my own at home so I'm back up to 225 but that sure beats my all time peak weight of 285!! this weight is manageable.
I believe what you're saying is true. I have lived a life of constant stress ,producing cortisol on a constant basis. I have belly fat ,I don't drink soda,juices,don't eat processed foods or simple carbohydrates. Producing Cortisol is my biggest problem . I do meditations and breathing exercises. Would love to know how to reduce the liver fat?
Try starting your day with green tea. Decades ago Dr. Perricone the skin doctor was on PBS stating flatly "lose 6 pounds in 6 weeks just switching from coffee to green tea in the morning". Now the market swims with "theanine" supplements etc. The stuff is medicine. PS you can still drink coffee later. 2 days a week I do the 24-hour fast (you just eat dinner one meal) with green tea AM black tea or coffee PM instead of eating. BTW I sweeten it with honey, use almond-milk derived creamer, the powdered artificials are one of the worst things you can put in your body. Yes going no sugar is best but if you skip the solid food it still works. (Don't eat ANY junk though, that means the "ultraprocessed" that is what is killing people--and the government gives EBT benefits for it! Subsidized Twinkies and Cheetos!)
There is newish research (that seems solid) on c15 fatty acid deficiency. So c15 is an essential fatty acid. If you are short of dietary c15 it can cause metabolic syndrome. So anyway c15 is mainly obtained by dairy. The best sources are cheese, butter, cream and fatty yoghurt. I’m not discounting Robert lustig as he is definitely correct. Sugar and alcohol in excess are terrible for your health. It’s just that c15 deficiency is also terrible for health. This is interesting because even if you cut out sugar and alcohol you could still end up with major metabolic issues if you are malnourished regarding c15. Anyway maybe you eat a kilo of pecorino cheese per day in which case this info is of no use to you! But if you don’t eat much dairy then give it a shot!
Wow! Love this one, thanks for sharing this kind of content - so helpful. Why can’t I find this one on Spotify?! Please share the episode number or link to the Spotify for this episode. Thanks!! ❤
The stuff about the sugar, processed foods and liver troubles makes so much sense to me. We had a relative pass away last year from liver failure after living with liver failure for years and all everyone who didn’t know him could ask was, was he an alcoholic or heavy drinker, and everyone who did know him couldn’t understand it cos he’d never drank or smoked etc a day in his life. The trouble was that he lived off processed food and sugary drinks. He either drank strong tea with 2 sugars, or he drank Coca Cola, and he lived off meals like the stuff you’d find on kids menus at restaurants or takeaways, or it’d be McDonald’s or Burger King. It was always sausage chips and beans, burgers chips and beans, sausages mash and gravy occasionally, pizza and chips, and then his pack ups for work would be ham or chicken sandwich with several bags of crisps, chocolate bars and all that stuff. I couldn’t understand why no one else could make the connection if I’m honest. All of this stuff really changed my attitude towards my kids meal options when we’d go out to eat too, and so they’d be sharing an adults meal between them rather than get them something from the kids menu. I think it’s time to reacquaint myself with this information in more detail. I can’t do much for myself now to the extent I did when I lost a lot of weight before cos of my physically disabilities now affect me and how it prevents me from cooking etc. it’s nice to know I haven’t been going crazy all this time. Anyway, rambling over 😂!
Wow, this is a fantastic podcast. I wonder where is the solution for belly fat. Life have stress regularly with different titles. I started no sugar, no bread +all kind of carb. I am on low Glycemic index vege, fruit, eggs and meat, no pork for sure. How do I loose belly fat? Age 76, active and love to help my body with these 3 fat depots. Please help us
I saw this video, and have listened to it many times. I got the book , and have started to read it. I hope that it will give me the tools to lose the weight I have put on after menopause, and deal with the acid reflux, hiata hernia and diverticulosis diagnosis, and insomnia all in a space of about 6 years. FYI, I'm from Newcastle, and neither my brother nor myself drink alcohol. We're probably not typical Geordies, but just saying 😉. Thank you for your channel ❤
I am post menopausal also. I used to have bloating, bad sleep, and some other unpleasant health problems. Was not a big sweets eater, didn't drink any soft drinks, "juices", rarely junk food, cooked almost everything myself. Eleminated from my diet added sugar products, thru out from my kitchen everything that contains added sugars, "natural flavors", colors, preservatives. Use only cold pressed unfiltered vegitable oils and butter, eat fruits in moderation, lots of cheese. I try to walk fast about 3-4 miles, sometimes twice a day, and go to the gym. Huge change in my wellbeing! Stomach problems - gone. Sleep normalized. Energy level went up.
We eat 1 meal a day avoid carbs and sugar - / used to drink Diet Coke but gave it up a year ago and just drink water - feel great lost a lot of weight/
It was written somewhere sugar is okay (to adults) only after exercise: it's said the body needs "fast" and "slow" carbohydrates. What I would like to know is the high blood sugar (glucose peaks) or sugar/fast hydrates in themselves. A little sugar treat after a meal doesn't raise glood glucose much (see what Glucose Goddes says)
Doctor you told us about the 3 Depots of fat, but now you have to tell us what steps one needs to do or steps to follow to reduce liver fat especially. .
I d like to thank you, Dr. Chatterjee and Dr. Lustig for having inspired me 6 months ago. I have lost 24 kilogrammes (20% of my body weight) and life is excellent. Yes, coming over the first 3 weeks of was horrible (cravings!) but afterwards indeed you feel empowered. Congrats also to all commenters that had comparable success
Please explain. If there are so many studies out there that show how to treat so many bad things just through nutrition and exercise, why do regular GP's not know or talk about this? It's so frustrating.
I just cant stand drinking water. Ive tried to switch to water many times and i always end up dehydrated badly. I know it's supposed to be 'in my head'...🤔
I know you want the docs advice on this but just to add my view ....Fasting makes you more insulin sensitive so it helps VERY much ... Continuous eating makes you more resistant to insulin so you then need to produce more insulin it's addictive to your cells ... eventually they get overwhelmed with it ...hence type 2 diabetes occurs.. So yes fasting sensibly is a great tactic in my view and has worked for me BIG TIME... Hopefully that makes sense.... Keith UK
I’m not denying that what he says is true but during my separation with my fiance in the past I lost so much weight. I was the skinniest I’ve ever been. I was obviously eating a lot less but my stress level was beyond high to where I wasn’t sleeping & had anxiety attacks & mental breakdowns once a week so I know my cortisol was extremely high so I wish he could explain that one cause I’m curious
Ty gentlemen for those great videos. This video sound the alarm to me to get rid of my tummy. As of today’s date no more SUGAR. (Fruits, sodas, and junk foods) Satan, retires-toi de moi. Only meats and avocados. Can’t go w/o my daily avocado. Cheers to you Drs. From Montreal, Canada 🇨🇦
Yeah for the average person, i can see how diet sodas make you eat more . But if you're already counting your calories and have discipline , you know not to go over , still a net win.
@@CIB8282what’s better for health and longevity? Using some diet soda to curb hunger(which water does not) on a calorie deficit for 4-6 months while you’re dieting down to get healthy and lean. Or staying at a higher body fat
@@JstBringIt diet soda doesnt curb hunger. It tricks your brain but not your gut. Its better to remove all added sweeteners, which will help your body adjust to a healthier diet. There is no evidence that diet soda helps people lose weight.
Excellent video.. thank you. In 70’s only drank TAB (taste was vile) and ate 1 apple a day. Almost killed myself but as a teenager but sure looked good. I just learned seltzer (no salt added) which I think is same as water … apparently it isn’t. Plain water is Alkaline and seltzer is Acidic. Acidic food apparently helps to fuel cancer. I have cancer. In remission a year. Can you give an overall evaluation of importance of alkaline and/or acidic environments in our bodies as a general eval not just re:cancer?. Smart Dr. “never answer a woman asking ‘do these jeans make me look fat?” If we ask that question… we already know the answer. Thank you again.
I agree on hormone thing but its mathematically impossible to gain weight with eating 500 kcal/day because basal metabolic rate is no less than 1200 kcal/day (probably even more than that)even for a kid.....First low of thermodynamics applies no matter what !! You can't cancel it like you can't cancel gravity.
I drink diet soda and have always felt it was my dessert. I NEVER overate when drinking diet soda. I have to wonder if it really happens as often as they say. I have no cravings when I drink diet soda. I guess it can work both ways.
I used to drink diet soda but quit them about 6 years ago the thing I noticed is when drinking them I was always hungry but now not so much because I drink water instead and it made a big difference and also stopped having migraines.
If it’s not sugar it will not release insulin. Also, even if the pancreas released more insulin with ingesting artificial sweeteners, how will it add more fat? Calories are calories. Where will it magically get more calories to store as fat if none were ingested?
Liver will convert protein to sugar which are then to be converted into fats in the presence of high insulin. Also if u take sweetener it will spike insulin after that ur blood sugar crashes which leads to hanger and u will eat more in the upcoming meals.
@@Healthwarning-ry9ql not true. Insulin rises only with sugar not artificial sweeteners. The chemicals in the blood send messages to pancreas. If you are right then how do you explain the glycemic index? Only when in the blood stream certain chemicals tell the pancreas how much insulin to release. Has nothing to do with taste sending signals to the brain.
@@Healthwarning-ry9ql Insulin is a well regulated hormone that is released in very specific amounts according to the food’s glycemic index. So only when the food reaches the digestive tract and bloodstream will certain chemical reactions occur and notify the pancreas as to how much insulin to release. If we use artificial sweeteners that contain zero sugar insulin cannot be released. Also, if a person is healthy and does not have diabetes 1 or 2, there’s no need to worry about insulin. It’s a natural hormone response in order to drive sugar and nutrients into the cell. Some foods have a higher glycemic index and will cause more insulin to be released then it normalizes itself. There’s no crash and there’s no excess hunger after you eat something sweet. The only time that’s harmful is if you are ingesting continuous and enormous amounts of glucose through out the day. Then you run the risk of developing adult onset diabetes because the pancreas is overloaded and fails to function properly.
@@Healthwarning-ry9ql the liver will do that only if there’s no glucose left in blood or muscle etc. You can’t just taste something and spike insulin. There’s chemical reactions that occur in bloodstream that signal the pancreas to produce insulin. It’s more regulated than that. That’s why every food has its own glycemic index.
Many years I'll go I would drink diet pop thinking that it would stop me from wanting to eat. But that didn't work and I quickly found out that I needed to just not drink that crap. For many many years I have not drank any kind of Pop once in a great while like maybe once every 3 years I might have a half a can of pop/soda with sugar. Unfortunately I eat way too much sugar. I never use artificial sweetener ever since I learned how bad it was for you I hate something that tastes terrible and might kill you
It's the 'simple carbs' here ..END OF ....with the saliva turning it to nothing more than pure sugar in the mouth and stomach... The miller's are the killers here IMHO ( processed food ) Control the insulin resistance and you're done....I eat fat protein fibre and complex carbs only now .. I've lost over 60lb gradually in 5 years ...have no more than 2 eating events in a day ... I'm now 67 and feel like I did when I was 30 ...I was on all sorts of meds... trying to apply the sticking plaster of meds to control a sugar and carb addition .... It's not rocket science...fuel your body on glycogen ( your livers sugars made from body fat ) not dietary sugars from simple carbs .. We are an old design body structure trying to operate on a new fuel in a modern lifestyle and it doesn't work well... I don't know why they call big people fat ... they should call them 'carbed' Dietary fat is not fattening if there is little insulin ( the fat storage hormone ) in the bloodstream at the same time... Thanks doc... great interview... I'm a retired food and bev lecturer...so have an avid interest now in nutrition .... would LOVE to do a podcast with you if it helps.... Keith M. Blackpool....
There are,just as many studies that show diet drinks improve weight regulation. Dr. Lustig has an agenda. Probably it depends. For some it's better for others it isn't. Either way, drink more water.
He is so arrogant I don’t like listening to him. Also he knows a whole food plant exclusive diet is the best!! Keto is so unhealthy very bad for diabetes you know fat is the main culprit more than bad carbs !
I've been able to keep a stable 220 lbs for a year now after being 350 at age 27 now 31, Non-Processed food, gluten free, and moving a bit more ^_^ was diagnosed with adhd but now all that brain fog is gone and I love it, please make your own food for you and your family so we can all think and be well :)
I have lost 40 lbs in 4 months. I started cutting out sugar then I watch a video from Robert Lustig which changed my whole perspective. I bought his book Metabolically. Then I started intermittent fasting and walking. I will never eat the same again. Thanks for having these informational videos, you are changing the lives of so many
Congratulations, thats awesome. I did the same 3 1/2 years ago. Lost more than 90 lbs, been able to maintain my weight loss.

Please help us
I'm new to these videos, there never seems to be an introduction, is that for any particular reason?
The best podcast in youtube.
I think Fasting helps break the addiction to sugar & carbs. Carbs are tough to get around.
When you do eat carbs have them after you exercise and with fiber. This will replenish your energy stores from exercise.
Check out Glucose Goddess she has excellent tips and hacks on how to lower insuline when consuming glucose & sugar & generally, carbs.
This so alarming as a parent! Especially when the over half does all this and thinks it's OK to give our child sugar 247 when I'm working away
Love you both! Thank you for this video! ❤
So if stress causes belly fat, does anxiety also cause belly fat because I've plenty of anxiety.
If you get stressed out by your anxiety, then yes. Exercise and being out in nature can help lower anxiety.

Jack LaLanne said it in the 60's..."Never eat anything man makes."
I’m not denying that what he says is true but during my separation with my fiance in the past I lost so much weight. I was the skinniest I’ve ever been. I was obviously eating a lot less but my stress level was beyond high to where I wasn’t sleeping & had anxiety attacks & mental breakdowns once a week so I know my cortisol was extremely high so I wish he could explain that one cause I’m curious
Does stevia and monk fruit sweetener trigger insulin the same way as diet sweeteners do? What about monch monch?
Is this a repeat episode? Looks similar to the time you had him on earlier this year.
What a treat !!!
Thank you 🎉🙏
Ty gentlemen for those great videos. This video sound the alarm to me to get rid of my tummy. As of today’s date no more SUGAR. (Fruits, sodas, and junk foods)
Satan, retires-toi de moi.
Only meats and avocados. Can’t go w/o my daily avocado.
Cheers to you Drs. From Montreal, Canada 🇨🇦
Lets not forget Dupont.
Can I use purified glucose as an sweetner?
Liver fat IS visceral fat as the liver is a visceral organ.
The 3rd major fat depot is skeletal muscle.
What about ground stevia leaf powder, is it a good choice...
Better to cut sugar all together otherwise you tempt yourself with the taste...with alcoolism you don't take "just a little drink"...
It's definitely better to get used to not eating sweet things
Stevia is fine, but allulose is better.
Yeah for the average person, i can see how diet sodas make you eat more . But if you're already counting your calories and have discipline , you know not to go over , still a net win.
Its not just about calories, diet sodas can disrupt your gut microbiome. Its ok to eat some whole fruit, so the microbiome can feed on the fiber.
Why do soda at all? I've been fine with water constantly! Just an addiction. 🤔
@@CIB8282what’s better for health and longevity?
Using some diet soda to curb hunger(which water does not) on a calorie deficit for 4-6 months while you’re dieting down to get healthy and lean.
Or staying at a higher body fat
@@JstBringIt diet soda doesnt curb hunger. It tricks your brain but not your gut. Its better to remove all added sweeteners, which will help your body adjust to a healthier diet. There is no evidence that diet soda helps people lose weight.

Excellent video.. thank you. In 70’s only drank TAB (taste was vile) and ate 1 apple a day. Almost killed myself but as a teenager but sure looked good.
I just learned seltzer (no salt added) which I think is same as water … apparently it isn’t. Plain water is Alkaline and seltzer is Acidic. Acidic food apparently helps to fuel cancer. I have cancer. In remission a year. Can you give an overall evaluation of importance of alkaline and/or acidic environments in our bodies as a general eval not just re:cancer?. Smart Dr. “never answer a woman asking ‘do these jeans make me look fat?” If we ask that question… we already know the answer. Thank you again.
i’d rather look sorta fat than only consume a soda and an apple a day 🙃
I can't see the Stefansson chair behind Dr. Lustig!
I can't see any chair behind the host either. What's your point?

@@DoloresLehmannI’m assuming it was just an observation. The chair was there in a previous chat. Maybe it’s covered with “stuff.” lol
I agree on hormone thing but its mathematically impossible to gain weight with eating 500 kcal/day because basal metabolic rate is no less than 1200 kcal/day (probably even more than that)even for a kid.....First low of thermodynamics applies no matter what !! You can't cancel it like you can't cancel gravity.
WHERE can i find his book METABOLICALLY I did all of the other thing only got worse and larger
10000 steps a day and diet drinks. I feel fine.
I drink diet soda and have always felt it was my dessert. I NEVER overate when drinking diet soda. I have to wonder if it really happens as often as they say. I have no cravings when I drink diet soda. I guess it can work both ways.
I used to drink diet soda but quit them about 6 years ago the thing I noticed is when drinking them I was always hungry but now not so much because I drink water instead and it made a big difference and also stopped having migraines.
If it’s not sugar it will not release insulin. Also, even if the pancreas released more insulin with ingesting artificial sweeteners, how will it add more fat? Calories are calories. Where will it magically get more calories to store as fat if none were ingested?
Liver will convert protein to sugar which are then to be converted into fats in the presence of high insulin.
Also if u take sweetener it will spike insulin after that ur blood sugar crashes which leads to hanger and u will eat more in the upcoming meals.
@@Healthwarning-ry9ql not true. Insulin rises only with sugar not artificial sweeteners. The chemicals in the blood send messages to pancreas. If you are right then how do you explain the glycemic index? Only when in the blood stream certain chemicals tell the pancreas how much insulin to release. Has nothing to do with taste sending signals to the brain.
@@Healthwarning-ry9ql Insulin is a well regulated hormone that is released in very specific amounts according to the food’s glycemic index. So only when the food reaches the digestive tract and bloodstream will certain chemical reactions occur and notify the pancreas as to how much insulin to release. If we use artificial sweeteners that contain zero sugar insulin cannot be released. Also, if a person is healthy and does not have diabetes 1 or 2, there’s no need to worry about insulin. It’s a natural hormone response in order to drive sugar and nutrients into the cell. Some foods have a higher glycemic index and will cause more insulin to be released then it normalizes itself. There’s no crash and there’s no excess hunger after you eat something sweet. The only time that’s harmful is if you are ingesting continuous and enormous amounts of glucose through out the day. Then you run the risk of developing adult onset diabetes because the pancreas is overloaded and fails to function properly.
@@Healthwarning-ry9ql the liver will do that only if there’s no glucose left in blood or muscle etc. You can’t just taste something and spike insulin. There’s chemical reactions that occur in bloodstream that signal the pancreas to produce insulin. It’s more regulated than that. That’s why every food has its own glycemic index.
@@joesalomone3764you're dealing with morons here.
HOLY COW
Many years I'll go I would drink diet pop thinking that it would stop me from wanting to eat. But that didn't work and I quickly found out that I needed to just not drink that crap. For many many years I have not drank any kind of Pop once in a great while like maybe once every 3 years I might have a half a can of pop/soda with sugar. Unfortunately I eat way too much sugar. I never use artificial sweetener ever since I learned how bad it was for you I hate something that tastes terrible and might kill you
What about peptides GP1 to help heal the gut...
If you only have one soda once in a great while, come on. It's the daily users that have a problem, don't you think?
“The sleeper has awakened!”
It's the 'simple carbs' here ..END OF ....with the saliva turning it to nothing more than pure sugar in the mouth and stomach...
The miller's are the killers here IMHO ( processed food )
Control the insulin resistance and you're done....I eat fat protein fibre and complex carbs only now ..
I've lost over 60lb gradually in 5 years ...have no more than 2 eating events in a day ... I'm now 67 and feel like I did when I was 30 ...I was on all sorts of meds... trying to apply the sticking plaster of meds to control a sugar and carb addition ....
It's not rocket science...fuel your body on glycogen ( your livers sugars made from body fat ) not dietary sugars from simple carbs ..
We are an old design body structure trying to operate on a new fuel in a modern lifestyle and it doesn't work well...
I don't know why they call big people fat ... they should call them 'carbed' Dietary fat is not fattening if there is little insulin ( the fat storage hormone ) in the bloodstream at the same time...
Thanks doc... great interview...
I'm a retired food and bev lecturer...so have an avid interest now in nutrition .... would LOVE to do a podcast with you if it helps.... Keith M.

There are,just as many studies that show diet drinks improve weight regulation. Dr. Lustig has an agenda.
Probably it depends. For some it's better for others it isn't. Either way, drink more water.
All sugar is terrible, even starches that turn into sugar. If it comes in a box, bag, or can it is not food.
Unless it's actually from drinking lol
I have no stress and my fat is all the healthy fat. :P
Your organs talk to you?? I think you need a psychologist.
Never ever drink them , don't see much weight loss on keto vore , 😂😂
❤
Don't watch
All fat is subcutaneous.
Is it, what about visceral fat that develops around the organs?
Aaah too much lip smacking

Carnivore diet is probably bad for longevity.
😆
I second that based on my own experience
Few know the truth
No it isn’t
He is so arrogant I don’t like listening to him. Also he knows a whole food plant exclusive diet is the best!! Keto is so unhealthy very bad for diabetes you know fat is the main culprit more than bad carbs !
I've been able to keep a stable 220 lbs for a year now after being 350 at age 27 now 31, Non-Processed food, gluten free, and moving a bit more ^_^ was diagnosed with adhd but now all that brain fog is gone and I love it, please make your own food for you and your family so we can all think and be well :)
No doubt he is really smart, but his face expressions sometimes are pretty evil
