@@frank8278 He is a holistic doctor not MD but better than MD in that he teaches how one can understand and look after oneself. . He teaches how to eat and exercise right, all the things that the MD's do not waste their time to talk about.
Isn't organic processed. Why do we use pesticide but to get rid of insects which are natural. to make plants grow without pesticides nowadays you have to use some of kind of process.
just want to say that I have followed your advice and you honestly may have saved my life... I was 287 pounds with a 90 resting heartbeat and a average of 165 / 90 blood pressure WITH medications. I was just recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and I saw one of your videos and starting to put your methods into practice. It has been 3 and a 1/2 months and I am down in weight from 287 pounds to 228 pounds! My resting heart rate has gone down to 77 beats a minute! My blood pressure has gone down to 120 / 70 and my blood sugar never goes past 100 even when i eat! (Says around 80 while fasting). I cannot express my gratitude enough Sir, you have My respect and I truly believe in your truth because I live it! (My apologies but I am going to post this same comment on your other videos in the hope you will see it or that it may inspire someone else).
Thank you for your wonderful and inspiring comment! I hope in a few months I will be able to also give such a glowing testimony of my healthy recovery. You lost 60 pounds that I just began to attempting to lose and I am borderline diabetic with high blood pressure I’m not sure how much it is right now. Bravo!
@enigmaticpro Thank you so so much, what a beautiful community of people. Down to 211lbs now with 75.6 lbs lost! Get a smart scale that connects to your phone and buy some electrolyte powder and Himalayan salt if your feeling dizzy. Drink bone broth and get some spinach powder if your really hurting on hunger. Do this I am telling you it really is worth it!!! Goodluck!
@@paulhailey2537 Aye, I was never much of a drinker, but I was happy to discover cannabis seems to be compatible with keto and fasting. I just have to be careful of "the munchies" and not lose my progress.

My father ate only health foods and got colon cancer. He exercised until he was 86. He was a health food nut. He didn't drink except for holidays. Salute dad ! He got cancer at age 78 and lived until he was 86. What a guy. Love and miss your arms holding me tight, telling me that you have broad shoulders and this is okay. You can handle anything dad. You have broad shoulders and endless love. Thanks Dad!
@@michaeltsung9741 Don't eat. Only drink water. But I'm sure this weeliebin will tell you the number of carcinogens found in water, aside from other toxins. But in all seriousness, I would rather follow what is said in the video than what some weeliebin says.
@@michaeltsung9741 Take what dude recommended in this video and make number 3 (meat), number 1, and eliminate number one (greens) and you'll be alright. No point in eating anything green. Your eye has 3 cones. One cone deciphers blue or yellow, one is for dark or light and the last is for green, or not green (red). The whole point of that last cone is to tell us what is FOOD. Out of all the green, we see the food POP because we are looking for ANYTHING not green. Green stuff is not food. Bitterness is indicative of toxins. If it doesn't taste good, don't eat it! (Granted that your gut is in decent shape) The only exception to this that I eat is delicious sauerkraut. (No longer green 😅) because the fermentation makes it much more digestible, helps the gut microbiome, and the fermentation process helps neutralize a lot of the toxins, and it goes from being bad, to good. Just like factory farm meat takes the healthiest food from great to pretty bad.
I quit eating processed sugars about a decade ago and Iv noticed that a lot of sauces and even some breads taste super sweet now. It’s crazy how much sugar is added to most food.
middle school, high school and college, I took all the mandatory health classes and a few electives. All of those combined could not do half as good a job as Dr. Ekberg in educating me on the multifaceted discipline that is health and nutrition. I feel like I FINALLY have the tools to successfully maintain a healthy lifestyle and ditch the " diet" lifestyle all together. Thank you Dr. Ekberg! not all angels have wings!
They don't teach health at schools but promoting Milo, vitagen n yakult a lot, because the government earn so much tax out of the food industry, especially those from big factories onto the supermarkets shelves with long shelf life. Then they earn much more in medicals n pharmaceuticals. They don't earn if u don't get sick.
*I WAS 260 POUND AND I WATCHED THIS DOCTOR'S FEW VIDEOS AND I HAVE LOST 20 POUNDS SINCE JANUARY 1ST AND I ALREADY FEEL SO LIGHT AND ENERGETIC, THANK YOU DOCTOR!*
@Jay Neale You are 100% right...I'm down to 191 pounds in 1 year and 2 month because I did followed doctor Ekberg's advices...it's been year and two month I haven't eat bread, flour involved foods and sugary foods and drinks...
@Sunny Road Trucker that's amazing 👏 really well done, I've been ill for two years after being very active most my adult life and put on huge amounts of weight so been looking for something that's balanced and sustainable to help get back to health , my misses did a very similar type of life change and works for her so was extremely interesting hearing the science behind many things talked about in the videos and given me the belief in it all to want to start sorting what I need to do ! Again really well done and keep up what your doing 👏
I can confirm that taste can change over time, more medical reasons I stopped drinking Coca-cola. After 3 years with out it, I can't drink it any more it's unbearably sweet.
I can live without SOFTDRINKS like pepsi cola, coca cola, and all kinds of softdrinks for the rest of my life... Just the universal solvent, WATER... Water is LIFE... ❤️🌹❤️🌷❤️
I cut out sugars about a month ago. I tried to drink some ginger ale the other day but couldn't. It was too sweet. Also, unsweetened dark chocolate is delicious now!😋
Pasture raised eggs bought directly from the farmer. Absolute game changer. I was completely astonished at how vibrant the yolk is, it‘s beautiful. Growing up in the city with poor parents, I never knew how healthy eggs look. The taste is very intense, extremely delicious! And they just REFUSE to go bad.
I live in a HUGE farm garden. My friend who owns the garden has chickens. The eggs are AMAZING and I have significantly upped my egg intake? The result? Improved hair and complexion and my physical aches and pains have almost GONE! Including my heartburn.
@@drekberg ,, My only concern was that you added meat in the form of Beef to the list. No beef is grass fed anymore and even if it is,,, it is laden with growth hormones. Otherwise, great video.

I just found him here on UA-cam yesterday and I started my first 3-day fast because he had the best presentation and metrics for understanding what is happening when not eating food for up to a week.
@@rexjantze296 Whoa, cowboy! A three day fast is pretty intense unless you have been working up to it. I started in April doing intermittent fasting (fancy name for "skip breakfast") and kept pushing lunch further into the afternoon. My wife and I did a four day last month, which I am sure helped my sore knee and skin itches. I just had a cup of organic bone broth with a little cumin and turmeric tossed in. My last meal was dinner two days ago. (I'm trying to break a set point). If you can just jump in and do a 3 day, God bless you, but I think unless you have done some prep work you might get dizzy or feel sick. One happy thing about dropping carbohydrates and sugar is your appetite changes. I miss chewing and tasting food when I fast, but I don't get hungry.
@@uncareid5557 🤠Yeah, rethinking that. I have done (nearly) two days without any problemo. Going to do a couple cleanses first, but its the autophagy I'm seeking, not the weight loss or other benefits, but they are welcome to show up as well. 3 days looks like a good minimum for autophagy. The other benefit I would want is the stem-cell/neurogenesis refresher. I'm a "big fan" of neuroplasticity and neurogenesis and ways to optimize the conditions that endorse changing the brain to feed back new mind. Pardner.
@@astos11 Hi Astos! You sound Greek. I had a medical procedure last Spring. I had to fast for 2 days before, that gave me a small head start. Getting weighed at the doctor and seeing 211 pounds was more motivation. I had never been that heavy. I retired last year from a construction job with a lot of stair climbing and sweating. Plus I was drinking too much beer. So I cut out the beer and most other carbohydrates like bread and potatoes and started riding my bike. I dropped to 200 in ten days. Then I started intermittent fasting (skipping breakfast). My wife watched a Dr. Ekberg video with me and was motivated to fast with me last month for four days (a complete fast- just coffee and bone broth). That helped my sore knee (old work injury) and I could ride my bike longer. I am now at 185 pounds, down 26 pounds in four months. I plan on doing a 3 to 4 day full fast every month, and I have not had 3 meals in one day in 4 months. Sometimes I eat only once. I hope you enjoy similar success!
Yeah just dropping alcohol, dropping sweets, and focusing on more valuable/healthy calories has made me feel so much brighter I can't even believe it. And the pounds are slowly and naturally slipping off as the weeks go by. Also less body pains at age 54.
for the herbs and spices portion i would love to recommend CURRY! the powder itself contains turmeric, cumin, ginger, chili, fennel seed etc use it to season your meat and veges, loads of delicious flavors.
The statement about the taste being learned is spot on. I live in Eastern Europe and when I tasted sweets or chocolate in the US, everything tasted too sweet to me....
In berries, I also grow currants, gooseberries, aronia, and mulberry. You'll seldom find them at a store, but they're healthy foods with limited sugar.
Mulberries! They're lovely. I don't see many mulberry trees here in the UK, which it's a shame as they're really delicious. Even hard to find in the shops, although I get some from local Indian shop, imported from Afghanistan no less!
@Wendy's Garden I adore mulberries; ate them right from the tree when a teenager in Charlottesville, Va where we lived for five years. The Garden Centre here (Oxon) has a couple which my children denuded when they were young. Nothing like tree climbing! Any case, you have inspired me: we've two apple trees (one Albemarle pippins, Q Vic's favourite, two Victoria plums, and a pear. Think we cd just squeeze in a mulberry. Fingers crossed it yields for us. Yrs, Lenore
So true about taste buds changing. For almost 20 years I drank coffee with sugar. When I started keto, I used stevia to sweeten and heavy cream. After that 1st year, I just started drinking coffee black. Now if I taste sweetened coffee, I want to spit it out its so gross. I NEVER thought I could give up my coffee habits, I was so attached to them. I love that i hate it now!
I’m from Kenya 🇰🇪 and I didn’t know there were white eggs until I travelled overseas and first saw them in supermarkets and stores. I’m glad I grew up eating unprocessed foods but things are changing with establishments of foreign supermarkets introducing these GMOs and processed foods
@@dianah.9718 my white chicken lays brown eggs and my black chicken lays white eggs... Different chicken breeds lay different colors.. green eggs don't come from green chickens
Spinach is extremely high in oxalates which can bring along a host of problems for people who can't process them. So are sweet potatoes, celery, beet greens, Swiss chard, rhubarb, gooseberries, blackcurrants, kiwi fruit, most nuts, seeds & grains.
Thank you. Just received six (3 varieties) Blueberry plants. Preparing the soil for the large wide pots they will go into (for the proper acidification they love). We also have two varieties of Mulberry trees. Also 3 Goji Berry, Barbados Cherry, 2 Fig, Pomegranate & 2 Jujube. Judi
Dear Dr. Sten. I am writing from Italy where I saw one of your programs by chance on UA-cam tube. I work on the construction of products for the transformation of meat, the typology are industrial grinding machines. In this delicate subject of the transformation into fine minced meat, metallic transfers are currently generated in the meat due to the exorbitant consumption of the blades and molds in. More than anything else due to the increases in production without making engineering updates to the machines that make up the sector, particularly industrial mincers which are very fast around 8000 kg/h in some cases. We have many patents in this field that reduce to 3/7 ppb instead of up to 80/100 ppm. This is only in the area of the grinding tools. The whole process inside the meat machine is a torture for the organoleptic qualities and the addition of another large quantity of iron and heavy metals, the lipid peroxidation is enormous!! So for this reason on cured meats and sausages and all mechanically processed meats are highly carcinogenic according to infinite scientific studies and universities. Stainless steel is a double-edged sword! These technologies are terribly approximate and based on ancestral tradition not considered in this time and available technologies. After 10 minutes of work, stainless steel is no longer stainless steel! It has lost the passivated layer from oxygen, whose thickness is 1 to 3 Nm = 1 to 3 millionth of MM. In a few minutes it is destroyed and what remains under the layer contains 75% Fe and about 18% Cr! that without passivated and iron. There is more if you are interested. It is too serious a topic not to be explained and resolved as we have done, but there are opposing interests... Congratulations and good work Marcello
@JD Its a little slower to me but its okay. And, his flat presentation might make some to miss the video. But, in terms of the content, he is just awesome. :-)
I've only just found you, but I watch your channel as often as possible to counteract our ingrained so-called healthy food habits. The majority of "health" information on the internet is incomplete and/or misleading. Your channel can save lives. Thank you!
Thanks Doc, and Happy New Year. I am 83 and still look forward to another year of listening to your great advice, especially hearing "Hello, Health Champions!". I figure that is my favorite name to be called. Love it! I have been closer to heaven ever since Costco became mostly organic.
Dear Dr. Eckberg, I’m so proud of you because you have explained to us in layman terms how the blood sugar works and how the insulin takes over and destroys our ability to lose belly fat because in our family we eat all day all day high carbs, potato salad, macaroni, and cheese Pizza so I was our body never gets a chance to rest when you explained on your show how why we don’t lose belly fat you help my family so much you saved out your saving our lives because we love carbs and we eat too many of them and then we eat fruit on top of the carbs so we we a lot of trouble we are volcanoes but Eckberg you helping us we watch all your episodes and we learning so much and you’re so calm. Thank you so much for helping people learn how our whole community can be saved through your education thank you for sharing your education. We love and adore. You have a wonderful winter. My name Barbara and please continue to tell her vision and the episodes of your wonderful education for our health. We appreciate you very much.
From my experience: Grapefruits, green apples and dark chocolate are a great bench mark for how much sugar you have in your diet. If those 3 foods taste awful, you are getting way too much sugar in your diet. If they taste amazing, you are probably on the right track with your sugar intake levels. After a few weeks of a low sugar diet, healthy foods tasted fantastic but I could not even eat normal mainstream treats. They literally burned my tongue and made me feel sick. The body adapts to bad things just as much as it does to good things. Something to think about.

I was competing with Dr Ekberg at 1992 Olympics Barcelona in the Decathlon and if I had his dietary knowledge, I could have benefitted greatly. Thanks for your good work. Keep it up.
I used to love sweet stuff, but over time, as I have reduced the sugar in my diet, I find a lot of things are "sickeningly sweet". Whenever I bake, I automatically reduce the sugar by half, and often find that it is still too sweet. I have found the same phenomenon with salt. Most restaurant meals are too salty for me. And I find that I appreciate the tastes of the different foods so much more when they are not salty. They put salt in everything supposedly to bring out the flavor of the food, but to me it just makes it salty.
From top down : 1. Non starchy leafy veg. ( Broccoli, Brusselsprouts,cauliflower) 2. Berries 3. Meat 4.Eggs (Pasture raised) 5. Fats and oils (Butter, tallow,coconut oil,lard, Olive oil) 6. Nuts (Macademia,pecan,walnut,almond) not peanuts 7. Seeds (Chia,Flax,Hemp,pumkin) 8. Avokad0 9. Tubers (sweet potatoe,potatoe,turnips,carrot) 10, Herbs and spices (Too many to mention) Eat lots of them
Es cierto que todo parece más dulce cuando reducimos el consumo de azúcar. Comenté mi experiencia en otro vídeo y ahora recuerdo que después de hacerla, me di cuenta que los jugos que compraba me parecían más azucarados y como más concentrados. Empecé por añadirles agua pero al final dejé de comprarlos y los hice yo misma. Lo mismo con los yogures; todos contienen demasiado azúcar, así que a veces solo compro yogur natural y mezclo yo misma la fruta.
Excellent. You are a natural teacher : informative, humorous, to the point, and you don't overdo the science! People trust presentations like this. I love the balance you strike.
CONGRATULATIONS DR ON BECOMING THE GENTLEMAN THAT YOU ARE... A LOT OF STUDY, DEDICATION, DETERMINATION AND COMMITMENT HAS GONE INTO YOU AS A HUMAN... A FINE EXAMPLE... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Здравствуйте доктор. Я в первые слушаю ваши передачи по питанию. Спасибо вам за спокойнуюи квалифицированную помощь. Очень нравится ваш подход к здоровью. Приму к сведению.❤
Down to earth, the Respected Doctor is an epitome of simplicity and grace. His way of explaining the vital points is superb and we Indians are able to imbibe and digest his words easily. Very valuable lecture. Thanks.
I grew up farming and we ate all of these foods. I don't eat desserts or sugary stuff. Milk right from a cow or goat is the best. Fresh eggs and you know what is in your meat. No one knows how old I am and think I am 15 to 20 years younger. Have had the same 32" waistline for 40 years. Dr. Ekberg knows what he is talking about.
There's not much to know about. It's called common sense and everyone who grew up before TV dinners became the norm knows that's the way to eat. If it's in a packet don't buy it.
@@judylloyd7901 Back in the day dairy was expensive. Butter for example cost a lot more than it costs today. There were no or few flavored yogurt offerings - you bought plain full fat yogurt that wasn't even homogenized (which is a really bad process) or made your own yogurt and you added your own flavor by cutting fruit into it. You also didn't eat a lot of it because it was a luxury. Milk was readily accessible but you didn't have too much of that either because water or tea was so much cheaper. Also Milk wasn't homogenized - a process where the fat particles in the Milk are smashed so small that they can no separate from the water any longer thus resulting in a milk that never has a cream top. Very bad process because the particle size lets those fat droplets pass your intestines into the bloodstream uncontrolled and that's a very bad thing.
I notice when we have visited European countries, especially Switzerland, everyone is healthy looking, on the go and active. Then when I come back home to the US, you see so many obese people, it’s radically different. After spending a week in Germany, same thing. While on the train back to the airport, they’re 2 obese Americans sitting ahead of us probably heading home .
Love this man, he is so intelligent, clear, and concise. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for all your knowledge, time and caring to explain simply and clearly. You are helping so many people, you're videos should be required in all schools. Thank you again.
Finally,: balanced, informed information from a pleasant scientist who is not trying to sell a product, nor a system, neither a school of thought, but simply delivers the truth without fanaticism and guilt trips. Thank you!
You fixed my stomach problems. I no longer eat at specified times. I eat when my body signals hunger and eat until full. Sometimes I only eat two meals. 🥰
in this video I saw foods that you said are healthy including eggplant and tomatoes, lettuce, and kale. You said eat as much as you can because they are healthy, nutrient dense, and low-carb.
I think one thing that's important to note is there is a big difference between Cocoa (spelled with the O first) And Cacao (spelled with a first) Cocoa is the more processed version with not alot of nutrients. Cacao is unprocessed version with a ton of nutrients like, magnesium, potassium, iron, calcium, fiber ect. Also certain brands will says 85% Cacao on the front of the package....but then you check the ingredients and it says Cocoa. This is because they can not lie in the ingredient section. Some brands also have some mercury in them so its important to buy Quality Organic Cacao. Thank you for a great Video Dr. Ekberg!!
So true about the ever-changing taste buds. I experienced this when I stopped drinking soda altogether for just water. After 2-3 years of not drinking soda, if I ever want to treat myself I physically can't drink dark ones like cola or dr. pepper. They're wayyyy too syrup-y, I can barely finish a Sprite these days, so I now PREFER water.
I go with flavored seltzer water or plain seltzer water with a spritz of fruit juice for flavor. Chilled/ice herbal teas are a flavorful treat too with no sweetener or a touch of honey on occasion.
I have been telling my patients for decades that yellow oils are bad and they get a huge shock when I tell them that lard, butter, etc. are better for them. I have also emphasized the Cholesterol myth forever. Mine is around 260 and I will never take statins to control what is naturally made by our liver. By the way, I love it that you speak clearly and do not rush like other exponents that seem like they have to go somewhere soon. Thank you for educating the people.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY AND YOUR MENTIONING OF YOUR CHOLESTEROL MENTION (AND YOU ARE A PHYSICIAN). - I HAVE BEEN EATING SUPER HEALTHY FOR 3 YEARS TO HEAL MYSELF. HOWEVER WHEN I WENT TO GET BLOOD TEST FOR MY ANNUAL, MY CHOLESTEROL LEVEL HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY WORSE (222 LAST YEAR N 202 THIS YEAR, VS 145-175 BEFORE DIET CHANGE). MY LDL LEVEL IS VERY BAD (124,145). I HAVE BEEN STRESSED ABOUT THAT. I HOPE TO FIND SOME UA-cam VIDEO WITH GOOD EXPECTATIONS TO THAT. THANK YOU.
@@newaur I am sorry to tell you that you have been lied to in this life. Cholesterol is not bad, they make you believe so. Mine is higher than yours. Please watch the video the Cholesterol Myth by Dr. Stephen Sinatra or Dr. Eckberg, so you can understand this. Greetings
Here in Jamaica Avocados are commonly called ‘Pear’😊 It’s in season now and the 2 trees in my backyard are loaded! I can’t wait for them to ripen so we can indulge. Very informative video, thank you.
He’s right. Changed my diet to mostly eggs daily, and a variety of low starch veggies and roots like broccoli carrots and pumpkin seeds, some high fat nuts, occasionally some starchy ones such as sweet potatoes too, and went from 194 lbs to 169 lbs in about three months! Additionally, my bloodwork revealed better than mid normal Range for every standard panel marker.
Le chocoloat, chaque soir je melange une cuillere à soupe de poudre de cacao cru 100% avec une cuillere à café de canelle et une cuillere à soupe de miel d euphorbe, c est juste magnifique.
Since I started keto I can't drink diet coke have sweetener in coffee or have anything that's too sweet and got sugar in. I've always loved dark chocolate so that was a bonus for me when I heard you could have it on keto I usually go for dark chocolate 85% to 100% dark chocolate.
Lemon juice also excellent to add to many foods at end of cooking. Try Meyer lemons if u can find them. THE LORD's blessings to all; those who teach, those who learn.
I love listening to you. Finally someone can explain to me why we eat what we should eat. I love your voice, your ability to explain things to the layman and such important topics! I even shared your channel with my sister who agrees with me completely.
Finalmente una esauriente e veritieri indicazioni sulle proprieta' dei cibi che sono in linea con quelli usati dai centinati che ci si dimentica che non hanno assimilato alimenti processati per molti anni, cosa che non si riscontra' nei prossimi aspiranti centenari .
Regarding eggs: i remember as a kid growing on my grandparents farm, i ate eggs from the farm chickens there that has deep orange colored yolks.. the eggshells are harder to break than the ones bought from the groceries.. Comparing the taste, the eggs from my grandparent's farm taste better than the ones from the grocery..
I can't find eggs with orange yolks in the grocery store for anything. I've tried every brand of organic and cage free there is and they all have yellow yolks.
This is some of the best information on diet and nutrition that I have run across. For a person who is optimizing their diet for nutrition, it is invaluable. It is not trivial information, and turns out to be multi-faceted and detailed. To master it sufficiently may be within the ability of every person, but nobody is born knowing it and many if not most never learn it. To me this suggests that food distribution should be organized for public health and well-being, something easier said than done, instead of corporate profit and shareholder value.
I’m so happy that I found your channel as it’s opened my eyes to so much important information on making my self healthy again. Thanks for sharing your channel is a wealth of knowledge. God bless you and greetings from New York 👍
@@bicgohill8756 eactly as he said , pork chicken eggs dairy and butter are healthy if the animal they were sourced from ate healthy and was true free range
@Random Thought I remember at a restaurant they had no seltzers so I opted for a Dr. Pepper since I hadn't had one in years and when I got it I thought their machine was broken. I said something was wrong and it has way too much syrup, so the waitress brought me a Coke instead. That tasted like it had way too much syrup as well, so I let my wife try it and she confirmed it tasted how it was supposed to taste. Also, there were a couple other people drinking Coke at our table who chimed in and said it's how Coke is supposed to taste.

@@Astronurd What type of diet would you recommend?
@@michaeltsung9741 Don't eat. Only drink water. But I'm sure this weeliebin will tell you the number of carcinogens found in water, aside from other toxins. But in all seriousness, I would rather follow what is said in the video than what some weeliebin says.
@@michaeltsung9741
Take what dude recommended in this video and make number 3 (meat), number 1, and eliminate number one (greens) and you'll be alright. No point in eating anything green. Your eye has 3 cones. One cone deciphers blue or yellow, one is for dark or light and the last is for green, or not green (red). The whole point of that last cone is to tell us what is FOOD. Out of all the green, we see the food POP because we are looking for ANYTHING not green. Green stuff is not food. Bitterness is indicative of toxins. If it doesn't taste good, don't eat it! (Granted that your gut is in decent shape) The only exception to this that I eat is delicious sauerkraut. (No longer green 😅) because the fermentation makes it much more digestible, helps the gut microbiome, and the fermentation process helps neutralize a lot of the toxins, and it goes from being bad, to good. Just like factory farm meat takes the healthiest food from great to pretty bad.
@@Astronurd Grow your own garden like ancestors did and all is healthy good vegetables, you know what you are eating and it tastes so much better
We live in an incredible age, we are able to listen to great lectures by Dr. Ekberg for free. You keep putting them out we'll keep watching, thanks!
I agree. All this helpful nutrition information for free.
🙌🙌🙌
Amen!
Yeah, he said, real eggs are orange color.. not even close, maybe in nyc hen on top of the building.
I wouldn't exactly call this an incredible age.
I quit eating processed sugars about a decade ago and Iv noticed that a lot of sauces and even some breads taste super sweet now. It’s crazy how much sugar is added to most food.
best thing you can do for your life. Maybe next step Ketogenic diet??? lots of people feel improvement in energy and mental clarity on those
middle school, high school and college, I took all the mandatory health classes and a few electives. All of those combined could not do half as good a job as Dr. Ekberg in educating me on the multifaceted discipline that is health and nutrition. I feel like I FINALLY have the tools to successfully maintain a healthy lifestyle and ditch the " diet" lifestyle all together. Thank you Dr. Ekberg! not all angels have wings!
Makes you wonder where all those tax dollars go in schools 🤔
You are an adult and you needed a UA-cam video to tell you what a healthy diet looks like?
the mans a national and natural treasure
You go and ask for your money back.
They don't teach health at schools but promoting Milo, vitagen n yakult a lot, because the government earn so much tax out of the food industry, especially those from big factories onto the supermarkets shelves with long shelf life. Then they earn much more in medicals n pharmaceuticals. They don't earn if u don't get sick.

@Sunny Road Trucker that's amazing 👏 really well done, I've been ill for two years after being very active most my adult life and put on huge amounts of weight so been looking for something that's balanced and sustainable to help get back to health , my misses did a very similar type of life change and works for her so was extremely interesting hearing the science behind many things talked about in the videos and given me the belief in it all to want to start sorting what I need to do ! Again really well done and keep up what your doing 👏
I can confirm that taste can change over time, more medical reasons I stopped drinking Coca-cola. After 3 years with out it, I can't drink it any more it's unbearably sweet.
good thing you WOKE UP. Always hated that crap & the sweet especially when I learned it de-rusts metal!
Yes woka-cola is garbage. Happy our family stopped drinking it too.
I stopped coke as well but I always felt Pepsi was sweeter even as a child I couldn’t drink it.
I can live without SOFTDRINKS like pepsi cola, coca cola, and all kinds of softdrinks for the rest of my life... Just the universal solvent, WATER... Water is LIFE... ❤️🌹❤️🌷❤️
I cut out sugars about a month ago. I tried to drink some ginger ale the other day but couldn't. It was too sweet. Also, unsweetened dark chocolate is delicious now!😋

Pasture raised eggs bought directly from the farmer. Absolute game changer. I was completely astonished at how vibrant the yolk is, it‘s beautiful. Growing up in the city with poor parents, I never knew how healthy eggs look. The taste is very intense, extremely delicious! And they just REFUSE to go bad.
Not everyone has this option though. I buy the organic cage-free eggs from Aldi (brown).

Since I started listening to Dr Ekberg (and Dr Berg) I have lost 20 pounds and my resting heart rate is down 5 BPM.
I just found him here on UA-cam yesterday and I started my first 3-day fast because he had the best presentation and metrics for understanding what is happening when not eating food for up to a week.
@@rexjantze296 Whoa, cowboy! A three day fast is pretty intense unless you have been working up to it. I started in April doing intermittent fasting (fancy name for "skip breakfast") and kept pushing lunch further into the afternoon. My wife and I did a four day last month, which I am sure helped my sore knee and skin itches. I just had a cup of organic bone broth with a little cumin and turmeric tossed in. My last meal was dinner two days ago. (I'm trying to break a set point). If you can just jump in and do a 3 day, God bless you, but I think unless you have done some prep work you might get dizzy or feel sick. One happy thing about dropping carbohydrates and sugar is your appetite changes. I miss chewing and tasting food when I fast, but I don't get hungry.
@@uncareid5557 🤠Yeah, rethinking that. I have done (nearly) two days without any problemo. Going to do a couple cleanses first, but its the autophagy I'm seeking, not the weight loss or other benefits, but they are welcome to show up as well. 3 days looks like a good minimum for autophagy. The other benefit I would want is the stem-cell/neurogenesis refresher. I'm a "big fan" of neuroplasticity and neurogenesis and ways to optimize the conditions that endorse changing the brain to feed back new mind. Pardner.
How did you do ? Kindly share with us 🙏
@@astos11 Hi Astos! You sound Greek. I had a medical procedure last Spring. I had to fast for 2 days before, that gave me a small head start. Getting weighed at the doctor and seeing 211 pounds was more motivation. I had never been that heavy. I retired last year from a construction job with a lot of stair climbing and sweating. Plus I was drinking too much beer. So I cut out the beer and most other carbohydrates like bread and potatoes and started riding my bike. I dropped to 200 in ten days. Then I started intermittent fasting (skipping breakfast). My wife watched a Dr. Ekberg video with me and was motivated to fast with me last month for four days (a complete fast- just coffee and bone broth). That helped my sore knee (old work injury) and I could ride my bike longer. I am now at 185 pounds, down 26 pounds in four months. I plan on doing a 3 to 4 day full fast every month, and I have not had 3 meals in one day in 4 months. Sometimes I eat only once. I hope you enjoy similar success!
its absolutely crazy how fast my body went from lazy to active when i changed my eating habits. Thank you
YEP!!! You can feel the difference immediately!!! At least I did.....
Yeah just dropping alcohol, dropping sweets, and focusing on more valuable/healthy calories has made me feel so much brighter I can't even believe it. And the pounds are slowly and naturally slipping off as the weeks go by. Also less body pains at age 54.
DDziekuje ❤
for the herbs and spices portion i would love to recommend CURRY! the powder itself contains turmeric, cumin, ginger, chili, fennel seed etc use it to season your meat and veges, loads of delicious flavors.
Thanks
The statement about the taste being learned is spot on. I live in Eastern Europe and when I tasted sweets or chocolate in the US, everything tasted too sweet to me....
In berries, I also grow currants, gooseberries, aronia, and mulberry. You'll seldom find them at a store, but they're healthy foods with limited sugar.
Gooseberries are amazing!
Mulberries! They're lovely. I don't see many mulberry trees here in the UK, which it's a shame as they're really delicious. Even hard to find in the shops, although I get some from local Indian shop, imported from Afghanistan no less!
@Wendy's Garden
I adore mulberries; ate them right from the tree when a teenager in Charlottesville, Va where we lived for five years. The Garden Centre here (Oxon) has a couple which my children denuded when they were young. Nothing like tree climbing!
Any case, you have inspired me: we've two apple trees (one Albemarle pippins, Q Vic's favourite, two Victoria plums, and a pear. Think we cd just squeeze in a mulberry. Fingers crossed it yields for us.
Yrs, Lenore
Neat! What climate are you able to grow those in?
White mulberries are my favorite , almost like a little fig, and not too sweet.
So true about taste buds changing. For almost 20 years I drank coffee with sugar. When I started keto, I used stevia to sweeten and heavy cream. After that 1st year, I just started drinking coffee black. Now if I taste sweetened coffee, I want to spit it out its so gross. I NEVER thought I could give up my coffee habits, I was so attached to them. I love that i hate it now!
Me too I just drink mine black now no problem!!
Same with me black and strong for the taste of real coffe. I love it
I learned recently that a TINY amount of salt cancels out the bitterness in coffee.

Dear Dr. Sten. I am writing from Italy where I saw one of your programs by chance on UA-cam tube. I work on the construction of products for the transformation of meat, the typology are industrial grinding machines. In this delicate subject of the transformation into fine minced meat, metallic transfers are currently generated in the meat due to the exorbitant consumption of the blades and molds in. More than anything else due to the increases in production without making engineering updates to the machines that make up the sector, particularly industrial mincers which are very fast around 8000 kg/h in some cases. We have many patents in this field that reduce to 3/7 ppb instead of up to 80/100 ppm. This is only in the area of the grinding tools. The whole process inside the meat machine is a torture for the organoleptic qualities and the addition of another large quantity of iron and heavy metals, the lipid peroxidation is enormous!! So for this reason on cured meats and sausages and all mechanically processed meats are highly carcinogenic according to infinite scientific studies and universities. Stainless steel is a double-edged sword! These technologies are terribly approximate and based on ancestral tradition not considered in this time and available technologies. After 10 minutes of work, stainless steel is no longer stainless steel! It has lost the passivated layer from oxygen, whose thickness is 1 to 3 Nm = 1 to 3 millionth of MM. In a few minutes it is destroyed and what remains under the layer contains 75% Fe and about 18% Cr! that without passivated and iron. There is more if you are interested. It is too serious a topic not to be explained and resolved as we have done, but there are opposing interests...
Congratulations and good work
Marcello
I like Dr. E, he speaks slowly, states everything clearly.
I do too love this ,very informative !!!

First time I could go throught a 26 min video without getting distracted, love the way you teach, keep it up doc!
From my experience: Grapefruits, green apples and dark chocolate are a great bench mark for how much sugar you have in your diet. If those 3 foods taste awful, you are getting way too much sugar in your diet. If they taste amazing, you are probably on the right track with your sugar intake levels. After a few weeks of a low sugar diet, healthy foods tasted fantastic but I could not even eat normal mainstream treats. They literally burned my tongue and made me feel sick. The body adapts to bad things just as much as it does to good things. Something to think about.
depends on what you like , i love grapefruit and dark chocolate but hate green apples

I used to love sweet stuff, but over time, as I have reduced the sugar in my diet, I find a lot of things are "sickeningly sweet". Whenever I bake, I automatically reduce the sugar by half, and often find that it is still too sweet. I have found the same phenomenon with salt. Most restaurant meals are too salty for me. And I find that I appreciate the tastes of the different foods so much more when they are not salty. They put salt in everything supposedly to bring out the flavor of the food, but to me it just makes it salty.

Es cierto que todo parece más dulce cuando reducimos el consumo de azúcar. Comenté mi experiencia en otro vídeo y ahora recuerdo que después de hacerla, me di cuenta que los jugos que compraba me parecían más azucarados y como más concentrados. Empecé por añadirles agua pero al final dejé de comprarlos y los hice yo misma. Lo mismo con los yogures; todos contienen demasiado azúcar, así que a veces solo compro yogur natural y mezclo yo misma la fruta.
Excellent. You are a natural teacher : informative, humorous, to the point, and you don't overdo the science! People trust presentations like this. I love the balance you strike.
Twenty years ago it took me about 6 weeks to go from 2 sugars in coffee/tea to zero. I dropped 1/2 teaspoon every 2 weeks.

@@SARDOG that's bad....funny but bad lol
And God a few thousand before... just saying :)
I grew up farming and we ate all of these foods. I don't eat desserts or sugary stuff. Milk right
from a cow or goat is the best. Fresh eggs and you know what is in your meat. No one knows how old I am and think I am 15 to 20 years younger. Have had the same 32" waistline for 40 years. Dr. Ekberg knows what he is talking about.
There's not much to know about. It's called common sense and everyone who grew up before TV dinners became the norm knows that's the way to eat. If it's in a packet don't buy it.
Except for the dairy. I believe he's wrong about that.
@@judylloyd7901 Back in the day dairy was expensive. Butter for example cost a lot more than it costs today. There were no or few flavored yogurt offerings - you bought plain full fat yogurt that wasn't even homogenized (which is a really bad process) or made your own yogurt and you added your own flavor by cutting fruit into it. You also didn't eat a lot of it because it was a luxury. Milk was readily accessible but you didn't have too much of that either because water or tea was so much cheaper. Also Milk wasn't homogenized - a process where the fat particles in the Milk are smashed so small that they can no separate from the water any longer thus resulting in a milk that never has a cream top. Very bad process because the particle size lets those fat droplets pass your intestines into the bloodstream uncontrolled and that's a very bad thing.
You’re so lucky.
I notice when we have visited European countries, especially Switzerland, everyone is healthy looking, on the go and active. Then when I come back home to the US, you see so many obese people, it’s radically different. After spending a week in Germany, same thing. While on the train back to the airport, they’re 2 obese Americans sitting ahead of us probably heading home .
Lol 😅
That's for sure😂
Great info, I didn't see lemons though. I have the juice of a lemon every morning , before breakfast. It really helps my digestion.
I love the way you call us "health champions", that's really cool.
He doesn’t mean it really. Do not be so naive.
@@urmenyi It's not so important if he means it. It's more important if we take it to heart.

I've incorporated more coco nibs into my breakfasts...goes good in chia pudding or yogurt and/or berries
So much common sense in these videos. Totally agree with what he says about sugar. Once you cut down, you can't bear the taste of it.
Finally,: balanced, informed information from a pleasant scientist who is not trying to sell a product, nor a system, neither a school of thought, but simply delivers the truth without fanaticism and guilt trips. Thank you!
You fixed my stomach problems. I no longer eat at specified times. I eat when my body signals hunger and eat until full. Sometimes I only eat two meals. 🥰
What were your problems?
in this video I saw foods that you said are healthy including eggplant and tomatoes, lettuce, and kale. You said eat as much as you can because they are healthy, nutrient dense, and low-carb.
I think one thing that's important to note is there is a big difference between Cocoa (spelled with the O first) And Cacao (spelled with a first) Cocoa is the more processed version with not alot of nutrients. Cacao is unprocessed version with a ton of nutrients like, magnesium, potassium, iron, calcium, fiber ect. Also certain brands will says 85% Cacao on the front of the package....but then you check the ingredients and it says Cocoa. This is because they can not lie in the ingredient section. Some brands also have some mercury in them so its important to buy Quality Organic Cacao. Thank you for a great Video Dr. Ekberg!!
In Nicaragua it's a local treat to drink a beverage made with Cacao and milk and ice. Straight unprocessed cacao the way it should be!
1. Non-starchy veggies: spinach, broccoli, cauliflower
2. Berries: strawberry, raspberry, Blackberry, blueberry
3. Meat: beef, lamb, wild, salmon, sardines
4. Egg: pasture raised egg
5. Fat and oil: butter, coconut oil, MCT oils
6. Nuts: walnut, Almonds
7. Seeds: chia seeds, flax seed
8. Avocado
9. Tubers or root vegetables: yam, potatoes, carrot
10. Herb and spices: garlic, ginger, tumeric, cinnamon, cloves, parsley
11. Dark chocolate
Excellent
I thought coconut oil is bad
What about other fresh fruits apart from berries?
@@josephfoko8289too much fructose
Is this protein safe with stage 3 kidney disease?
So true about the ever-changing taste buds. I experienced this when I stopped drinking soda altogether for just water. After 2-3 years of not drinking soda, if I ever want to treat myself I physically can't drink dark ones like cola or dr. pepper. They're wayyyy too syrup-y, I can barely finish a Sprite these days, so I now PREFER water.
I go with flavored seltzer water or plain seltzer water with a spritz of fruit juice for flavor. Chilled/ice herbal teas are a flavorful treat too with no sweetener or a touch of honey on occasion.
I have been telling my patients for decades that yellow oils are bad and they get a huge shock when I tell them that lard, butter, etc. are better for them. I have also emphasized the Cholesterol myth forever. Mine is around 260 and I will never take statins to control what is naturally made by our liver. By the way, I love it that you speak clearly and do not rush like other exponents that seem like they have to go somewhere soon. Thank you for educating the people.

@@newaur I am sorry to tell you that you have been lied to in this life. Cholesterol is not bad, they make you believe so. Mine is higher than yours. Please watch the video the Cholesterol Myth by Dr. Stephen Sinatra or Dr. Eckberg, so you can understand this. Greetings
I appreciate how you encourage a holistic approach to health and well-being.
Here in Jamaica Avocados are commonly called ‘Pear’😊
It’s in season now and the 2 trees in my backyard are loaded! I can’t wait for them to ripen so we can indulge.
Very informative video, thank you.
Interesting because they also called" pear "in Ghana!
That’s so interesting.. what do you call a pear?.. 🍐..
😉👏👍🇯🇲
Bombaclattt !!!! ship me some in Alaska please, our avocado look like Snapchat filters
Surely miss Jamaica and all the fruits and yes, pear!
He’s right. Changed my diet to mostly eggs daily, and a variety of low starch veggies and roots like broccoli carrots and pumpkin seeds, some high fat nuts, occasionally some starchy ones such as sweet potatoes too, and went from 194 lbs to 169 lbs in about three months! Additionally, my bloodwork revealed better than mid normal Range for every standard panel marker.
Did u exercise too?
Well done!!
What else do you eat for proteins
Eat foods high in polyphenols
What's your age
86% Ghirardelli dark chocolate is my go-to chocolate. Love it!
Le chocoloat, chaque soir je melange une cuillere à soupe de poudre de cacao cru 100% avec une cuillere à café de canelle et une cuillere à soupe de miel d euphorbe, c est juste magnifique.
Since I started keto I can't drink diet coke have sweetener in coffee or have anything that's too sweet and got sugar in. I've always loved dark chocolate so that was a bonus for me when I heard you could have it on keto I usually go for dark chocolate 85% to 100% dark chocolate.
Same--best chocolate is the 85% and higher!
Man Doctor Ekberg, I cant tell you how glad I am that I have found your channel. Im sending it to all my family members! Thanks
Lemon juice also excellent to add to many foods at end of cooking. Try Meyer lemons if u can find them. THE LORD's blessings to all; those who teach, those who learn.
I appreciate how thorough you are with your explanations. Makes a big difference!
What about grains and pulses like lentil,green grams,chick peas,beans....?
Dry fish
Cheese
Root vegetables
Mushrooms.....
This guy is great !!!Everything he says is right.
Thats all good its all about being in a calorie defict.
Think you'll find he pointed out that grains cause inflammation 👍
Love that it isn't the usual 'Top 10' superfoods. It's actually food groups! Thanks, Dr. E, as always ❤
I love listening to you. Finally someone can explain to me why we eat what we should eat. I love your voice, your ability to explain things to the layman and such important topics! I even shared your channel with my sister who agrees with me completely.
Finalmente una esauriente e veritieri indicazioni sulle proprieta' dei cibi che sono in linea con quelli usati dai centinati che ci si dimentica che non hanno assimilato alimenti processati per molti anni, cosa che non si riscontra' nei prossimi aspiranti centenari .
Gotta love the internet...so many things one can learn. Thanks Doc!!!
Absolutely brilliant presentation packed with super guidance. We need this fact filled information to make sound choices. Thank you Dr.
Do we need to buy organic berries?
Regarding eggs: i remember as a kid growing on my grandparents farm, i ate eggs from the farm chickens there that has deep orange colored yolks.. the eggshells are harder to break than the ones bought from the groceries..
Comparing the taste, the eggs from my grandparent's farm taste better than the ones from the grocery..
It's because of the bugs farm birds eat. Natural proteins
My hens were the best pesticide ever.
I can't find eggs with orange yolks in the grocery store for anything. I've tried every brand of organic and cage free there is and they all have yellow yolks.
Did those hens graze on grass/leaves like clover and dandelion? = Golden Yellow yolk.
@@Abruzzo333 Nellies or Pete and Gerrys are good eggs and should be orange yolks, if you can find them in your area
Thank you for 10 healthy foods list. Do you suggest any ways to combine these foods to enhance health benefits?
I don’t see how anyone can give a thumbs down on these informative, clear videos.
probably vegan
@@windy6036 Yes. The vegan cult is so smug.
@@karmakomodia vegan cult is new age sotonistic cult
This was excellent Dr. Sten! Always enjoy your videos!
Gullible dbag.
This is some of the best information on diet and nutrition that I have run across. For a person who is optimizing their diet for nutrition, it is invaluable. It is not trivial information, and turns out to be multi-faceted and detailed. To master it sufficiently may be within the ability of every person, but nobody is born knowing it and many if not most never learn it. To me this suggests that food distribution should be organized for public health and well-being, something easier said than done, instead of corporate profit and shareholder value.
Turnips, Collards, Mustard greens, cabbage, green beans are my go to veggies.
When someone starts in telling me if its natural it's good for you I remind them Arsnic is natural. Thank you for your help.
Katie Garrett - Oscar nominee for Katie Garrett! And grilled steaks grow on trees, don't they?
Arsenic is not food 🥘 genius.
@@LongNguyen-lx8if Arsenic is quite common in nuts. My friend who is a doctor always says: There are no toxins, there are only toxic doses..
I’m so happy that I found your channel as it’s opened my eyes to so much important information on making my self healthy again. Thanks for sharing your channel is a wealth of knowledge. God bless you and greetings from New York 👍
Thank you Dr. Sten. Out of all the keto channels on UA-cam you are the most thorough! I am learning so much from you.👍
Love him and Dr. Berg
This guy takes it to the next level, he is really great. You learn so much.
I always learn good details from him. I like to know how and why it works.
Doktor Sten,tack så mycket och hälsningar från Göteborg,tack
If you would only watch 1 UA-cam video in your life, it would have to be this one. Absolutely top notch content!
So thankful I stumbled onto this guy! All his videos that I have viewed so far are exactly THAT.....Top Notch!!!!😉
Well he suggest eating pork, chicken, eggs, dairy and butter which are really not that healthy. Keep watching UA-cam
@@bicgohill8756 eactly as he said , pork chicken eggs dairy and butter are healthy if the animal they were sourced from ate healthy and was true free range
And if you're going to watch 2, watch his (recent as of this posting) video "Your Doctor Is Wrong About Cholesterol".
Ein kompetenter und verständlicher Vortrag.
25:15 this is absolutely right. When I completely cut out sugar, even celery tastes sweet.
@Random Thought I remember at a restaurant they had no seltzers so I opted for a Dr. Pepper since I hadn't had one in years and when I got it I thought their machine was broken. I said something was wrong and it has way too much syrup, so the waitress brought me a Coke instead. That tasted like it had way too much syrup as well, so I let my wife try it and she confirmed it tasted how it was supposed to taste. Also, there were a couple other people drinking Coke at our table who chimed in and said it's how Coke is supposed to taste.
What about: beans , tomatoes,mushrooms, bell peppers, leeks, kohlrabi East onions
He limited himself to the best 10.
I took a photo of your food board and now use it when I am grocery shopping! Love it! Thanks for helping us.
Perfect idea , Thank you : )
Me too!
excelente, muy bien video 🥰
