    12:34 Learn more about the best diet for metabolic syndrome and other health concerns!
    Today we're going to talk about the metabolic syndrome myth. Metabolic syndrome is also known as syndrome X.
    Metabolic syndrome is a combination of several conditions, including:
    • Abdominal obesity
    • High blood pressure
    • High blood glucose
    • High triglycerides
    • Insulin resistance
    • Hyperinsulinemia
    • High uric acid
    Metabolic syndrome is typically treated with a lot of medications, and there isn't a well-known cause.
    I believe metabolic syndrome is a protective mechanism. But it's not protective anymore.
    Let's first take a look at glucose and fructose. When you consume glucose, receptors all over your body metabolize it. Fructose is a unique type of sugar that can only be metabolized by the liver. Fructose produces more fat and enhances the fat genes more than other types of sugar.
    Early humans may have infrequently consumed fructose in fruit and honey as a survival mechanism for various reasons. These reasons that used to be beneficial are now contributing factors to metabolic syndrome.
    We don't need fructose for survival anymore-in fact, it's hurting us. If you have problems related to metabolic syndrome, try avoiding fructose in all forms.

      The old food guidelines limit it to two servings a day. Still way beyond what I eat. I go weeks without any fruit, which matches up with nature. But still have the odd bit.
      Now you have people who put 5 to 10 servings in a blender and drink it for breakfast. And think it is healthy. Then snack on fruit during the day.

    Stop eating sugar (other than fruit in moderation), stop eating flour/ultra-processed products...eventually the need for medications won't be necessary. Do not rely on a doctor to convince you medication is necessary (they are paid off by big pharma to promote medications), they (doctors) need you on medication to maintain their lifestyle. I grew up with a doctor (step-father) and he was always traveling on big pharma expense to attend seminars about thier new drugs...I started IF, cut out sugar/flour, do cold water therapy and eat organic...50 y/o male, 32" waist (was 36") and feel amazing. Essentially, you are what you eat...DON'T BE A DOUGHNUT!

Broccoli, spinach, carrots and potatoes are all high in antioxidants, and so are artichokes, cabbage, asparagus, avocados, beetroot, radish, lettuce, sweet potatoes, squash, pumpkin, collard greens and kale. There are plenty of low sugar sources. Elimination of fructose to the extent you are able is wise if you have metabolic issues. Thanks for another good video, 25 pounds to go. It does seem to be a protective system, not that I am a doctor.

      Insulin resistance isn't really a disease. Raised blood sugar by the liver in the morning is just a sign that your liver wants to burn fats. So you just have to fast or do keto while, or start intermittent fasting by skipping meals, that blood sugar in the morning is very convenient for that.

My potassium was chronically low and they would not discharge me from.the hospital until my potassium levels were raised. (Sodium and glucose levels are normal.)

When your doc says to lose weight and avoid sugary drinks, alcohol, etc. because of your fatty liver, that INCLUDES fruit juice. Fruit juice IS FRUCTOSE, and is actually terrible for you if you have any metabolic syndrome, overweight, or fatty liver, etc. Just putting that out there for anyone else, because my doc never mentioned fruit juice and I did not think it was harmful until I was told I have fatty liver with moderate fibrosis.

    If someone does not have a metabolic problem and practices fasting and never consumes modern junk food. I think that some fructose in its natural form is not unhealthy at all but it should only be in special occasions and very modified consumption . It adds up to your nutritional needs.
    Of course if one is on a junked up diet and unhealthy lifestyle. consuming fruit won’t make it better in anyway. A big problem like this should be solved from its core.

    I was truly addicted to oranges before my body stopped losing weight. I knew something was wrong so I stopped eating 3-4 oranges a day, and there you go- that's what it was, but the damage was done; Gallbladder issues, liver issues equals digestion problems, plus menopause. So a complete body/organ detox was a must. I learned about the endocrine system watching Dr. Berg's videos, and 1 year later 90 lbs lighter by a new eating and fasting reset to learn what my body responds to. I am smaller now than I was when I had my last baby in 1985, and It is so easy to maintain, and lose now since I have the knowledge of understanding. Thanks to God for leading me to Doctor Berg.

    • @Dostav

      Don't be that scared of those sugars. Sunflower seeds for example have already a lot fats and pretty good amount of fiber. All that stuff slows down absorption of sugars in them, so you can basically eat as much as you want of them. I can eat sunflower seeds for more that an hour, and feel perfectly fine. Experiment with your diet, a bit of sugar won't hurt

    An obervation from living in the tropics regarding fruit - we often focus on sugar and nutrients - but fruit is mostly water right? Nowadays that doesnt matter but back then; a source of water wasn't always around. So, eating fruit could have a hydrating benefit right? This video mentioned that fructose makes the body hold onto water; which could be beneficial in the environment where the human can only find fruit for water.
    This may sound absurd but in the tropics; there are multiple fruits that drop and ripen during the driest time of year. Mango is a great example.

From getting on keto I too lost weight, water weight, like all of us. My weight was 47, now it's 42 kg. Going back to eating carbs just for having that number bigger isn't in my plans for your knowledge.

    It strikes me that the time of year when, as hunter gatherers, we were more likely to have access to fructose was in the fall, when fruit was ripest. That was also the time of year when it would be most important to store calories for the winter.
