I am literally sitting here smiling, only because I tell people this all the time, and they look at me like either I’m crazy, or they just can’t understand how we’ve been lied to for so many years! Thank you for another awesome video!
@@pancake_ghosty After surgery in March taking the cancer out the first food she was given was sweet yoghurt and apple juice..Now she is doing chemo number 4 dose and the doctor said that no one lives past this but they are going ahead with radiation and stem cells.. I was watching how they do metabolic theology now but it cost not much money so that’s not good for the doctors pockets.. It’s better to have you suffer so they can buy a new house or car…
Man made the Coca Cola... God made the fruit. The way our bodies work with fruit is a lot different from Coke. Out ancestors ate fruit... not soda pops, lol. I tried the Carnivore Diet for a couple of weeks and felt horrible. My heart started palpating and I couldn't sleep at all. (Before the Carnivore Diet, I was on the Keto Diet following Dr. Berg on UA-cam) Since I was feeling so horrible from Carnivore Diet, I chose to add fruit, raw dairy (goats milk) and a little raw honey. Now I am back to normal and have plenty of energy again and sleeping well. I saw Dr. Paul Saladino eating this diet I am now on and how healthy he is... so I gave it a try and I love it!
The statement you made about fruit in another video has been a game changer for me. You said that today's fruits have been bred to be so sweet and they are little sacks of sugar. As a diabetic this really resonated with me so I stopped having fruit on a daily basis. I occasionally have a couple of strawberries & that has had a huge impact on my A1C. It dropped from 6.2 to now 5.3 at my last dr visit. My dr reduced my insulin dose twice since the beginning of this year & said I am well on my way to reversing my diabetes. THANK YOU DR BERRY!!!!!
Glad to know about your improved blood sugar. But have you been thinking about other health markers which are affected by diffiencies in vitamins and minerals? Or by overconsumption of animal products and fats? Blood sugar is not the only health marker to worry about.
@@abdelrahmanelsheikh5798 I was diagnosed with d3 & b12 deficiencies decades ago and have been on supplements to correct that since then. I have all markers tested regularly. I do eat vegetables which are low in oxalates and not inflammatory. All of my markers, including inflammatory markers, have improved. Best (very thorough) labs I have received in 30 years.
@@JamesThompson-ol3eu I have been monitoring my blood glucose very closely. If I have a few berries (not the box) my glucose does not skyrocket like it did with other fruit.
I stopped eating fruits in 2018, when I initially began the ketogenic way of eating, and have not had any fruit since. I just recently had blood work done (a week ago), and my Nurse Practioner says my labs looked great! Of course, she's a bit concerned about the slightly "elevated" cholesterol levels. However, I informed her that - in my opinion - since I am NOT eating a traditional "western/American" diet, but do consume a LARGE amount of fatty red meats, that the cholesterol numbers were likely fine, and not to worry. I'll probably out-live her (I'm 60). Thanks Dr. Berry!
Beautiful. So you are able to stay on purely meat, with no fruits or other carbs? What about cheese and butter? Any thoughts on that? Im starting to think those would have to be unpasteurized as that process fills it up with some sketchy chemicals... :) (Been carnivore myself for 6 months and have learned I cant eat fruits or drink so far... But I do wonder if its best to be in ketosis all the time or if it should be broken up at times?)
@@Meatups whenever I break out of Keto I loose my keys, forget where I parked, get a bit moody... So I always go back to a Ketovore style of eating since 2018 as well. It's my new normal. Not being in ketosis is weird.
You are wrong not to worry about elevated blood cholestrol from animal fats. They have shown to cause heart and artery disease which is the number 1 killer in the US. If you choose to ignore that because of the keto community misinformation, it's your choice, but you are wrong!
I absolutely love your videos and information. My brother turned me on to you and the ketogenic diet. I have to say that you are so helpful in understanding the diet and all of the myths that we have been taught all of our lives. I have completely changed and healed my body from the inside out. My A1C was 6.2 and now it's 5.0. My triglycerides were at one time 477 and now it's at 118. My cholesterol levels are now in the normal range also. I can't thank you enough for telling us the TRUTH! Finally, a doctor who isn't afraid to speak up. Oh, and by the way, my pcp is completely on board with me doing this keto diet. He is so pleased with my results. Please know that I'm sending you a great big hug and a thank you from the bottom of my heart. I knew that I hated fruit for a reason! Lol. P.S. congratulations on being a daddy again.
@@johnruble5796 Everyone can claim their own research 🙄🙄🙄. Check your own lab values and ultrasound your own organs after you have been eating certain types of food to know what works best for you. That is the best research.
Amazing that we’ve been snookered all these years. I heard a lady on a Facebook live the other day describing a recipe she was making. She was using grapes and said she was on weight watchers so the fruit is a free food. That is crazy that fruit is free on WW.
@@c_b5060 I think it does work - the first time! I achieved one of their little badges back in the 70/80's. [It was around the time they brought in baked beans]. Even on maintenance I lost weight. This is probably what they bank on - it doesn't last. The second time I joined WW nothing shifted. Fruit was weighed then, and certainly wasn't free.
At one point they were pushing recipes using fructose as a healthier sweetener. I lost weight when fruit was one point, then they made it free and I was off to the races with fruit and couldn't stick to the plan.
Thanks for the breakdown of fruit sugars! I don’t eat fruit because my body doesn’t tolerate any sugar! I love and respect the gift of my health so I eat beef, bacon, butter and eggs🥓🥓🥓😎🤩😍
I've discovered I can afford good beef because of all the stuff I now DON'T buy. Organic fruit being one of those. Whew! All those years I thought my fruit (and green) smoothies were good for me. Lost another pound this morning. Averaging a pound every 3 to 5 days. Got a ways to go, still. 4th week on carnivore and down 7 (solid) total pounds.

@@Ocbsucks water weight getting lost first 2-3 days, after that it’s fat. Also, when switching to carnivore from keto, there is no water - all lbs are fat lost
@@c_b5060 You're right. I experienced a stall and felt Carnivore wasn't working for me anymore. Started Carnivore with a weight of 89kg, now i weigh 62 all in 5 months.
Fruits are not only sugar. They are packed full of vits fiber potassium magnesium and even protein and other nutrients. You just eat in moderation and like with any other foods, exercise, go for a walk after a meal, keep busy and active. Following a strict diet, any diet, and sitting at computer desk all day long and laying on the couch watching TV at night won't do any good. Use common sense and enjoy the food. Fruits are good if you know how to eat and when to eat them.
Eating fruits is best when we totally cut human made sugar and pastries and beverages. Only source of sweet is through fruits naturally it's awesome. Eat what nature shares with us instead of listening BS from modern doctors.. just eat fruits and vegetables.
Thank you Dr.Berry! Just recently discovered your channel and Neisha's! Love your content! I have Crohn's but it's been in complete remission for decades. Never been on any biologics, I don't go for Colonoscopies. The rare time I have a flare( and it's mild and goes away) is when I eat almonds, some fruits and anything coconut. I have stayed away from fruits and vegetables for years and I'm so thankful given the new info that they are actually pro inflammatory. I didn't eat a ton of grains but I did eat oatmeal. Kicked it out of my diet. I have been taking Vitamin D for many years. Two weeks ago I started carnivore and I love it! I don't need to lose weight, I'm just doing it for overall health and wellness. Best decision ever! Thank you for getting the truth out there regarding food and diet.
Hey! Quorra, I too am diagnosed with Crohn's, very recently. I have been vegetarian all my life, and now trying to make up my mind towards carnivore. Still not tried though. Eggs are my only non-vegetarian food. However, how did you understand that you've overcome Crohn's? And also guide me on some good books, on it, if you've read any. (From India).

Thank you for another great video. Quick update: almost 1 month on a carnivore type diet plus IF, and im down 20lbs, Thank you for that! I don't know if i could have done it without your Channel and my friends.
Very good information, I've always wondered about this. I have heard that the best options as far as fruit goes, are berries, as they are lowest in sugar, yet still high in nutrients.
First of all I rarely comment on any videos, but I have to say this one hits home. I have followed you along with several other doctors including Paul Saladino for many years. I like Paul a lot and feel like I’ve learned a great deal from him. I decided to go full strict Carnivore in January of 2020. My physical health certainly improved, but my mental health is where i saw the most significant changes. The deep sadness and depression I had lived with the majority of my 38 years had almost completely lifted along with the heavy anxiety attacks I would have daily. It was profound. About 4 months ago I decided to add in some fruits (organic blueberries, organic mango, ys eco bee farms organic raw honey). I valued Paul’s perspective and figured “why not”. At first I didn’t seem to notice much of a difference. I wasn’t bloated, my skin didn’t break out, my bowel movements remained somewhat similar. However sugar (at least for me and my body and brain) is a sneaky little devil. I found myself not wanting to get out of bed in the mornings, and distancing myself from all of my friends. I had bouts of extreme emotional distress even though nothing in my life had really changed. Without even realizing it I was back in a deep depression surrounded by the heaviness of anxiety. Also if that wasn’t heartbreaking enough I was now fully addicted to sugar again. Paul says seed oils are what makes you not be able to stop eating. I can tell you for an absolute fact he is wrong! I could never debate him or understand the science to his degree, but I do know my own body and mind better than anyone! I have not touched one drop of seed oils in over 3 years and I could not stop eating mangos or honey! I was eating up to a pound of honey per day it still took everything I had to put it back in the cupboard. I also ate so much mango (even when I wasn’t actually hungry). All I would think about when I wasn’t home was getting back and eating those foods. The cravings were insane. As smart as Paul obviously is, he is missing something extremely crucial here and is spreading misinformation to so many people! I have since then gone through all of the withdrawal symptoms and am back on a Carnivore diet again and finally feel like my life is coming back together. I’m out of bed early and am back around friends and participating in life. I appreciate you Dr Berry, your videos have been very valuable in my life!
Yeah, instead of a witch in a gingerbread house, the road to ruin is Paul in a mango hut with a boogie board by the door. I did the honey experiment and really started to feel worse. Strict carnivore for me.
Thanks for sharing! But a pound of honey a day? Damn , that is so, so extreme and pure sugar! How did you do that? No wonder you fell back. Happy to hear you overcame it.
@@muratisik6956 I completely agree that it’s extreme. As crazy as it sounds I could have easily eaten more than that. I felt so addicted to honey and especially mango that I felt like no matter how much I ate it wasn’t enough. The cravings were more powerful than I can explain. As much as I love those foods, they unfortunately can’t be a part of my life.
I agree with you. There’s a UA-cam video “why did Paul Saladino quit carnivore” by carnivore camaraderie, that says Paul is actually going to pay if he doesn’t wake up. Good video
Now I don't eat fruit, unless its fermented. But I would like to see a video with you and Dr. SALADINO, because he shows studies in favor of fruit. I don't understand the science, So I would like to see you both have a friendly discussion about this. THANKS
You can find a "study" nowadays that proves just about anything. Just need to use some critical thinking skills. "I wonder what would happen if I ate only fruit?" Since fruit is not harmful right???
@@bensherman9126 no one is saying eat only fruit. But according to Dr Saladino if you are metabolically healthy, fruit doesn't have that bad of an impact. But I'm not a scientist. That's why I would like to see them have a conversation about it. I know Dr. Berry feeds his son fruit.
I like it when truth is spoken good or bas or positive or negative and no biased added, like when Ken says I like fruit and enjoy it very much but the health and vitality is much more important. Cheers Based on info from this Kens site and 2 others I've been OMAD, and BBBE now since Jan 05/22... and loving it Thank You again for the inspiration...
My favorite fruit is: slightly but not quite ripe durian. Fat, protein, and lower carbs and it’s all there and so tasty. Fresh off the farm in the village, we only get it in June/July but so good. Happy low carb in Thailand.
Can you share your educated opinion and knowledge on Ribose, both in connection to the other sugars and possible health benefits? Excellent video presentation. Thank you.
I switched to a vegan diet full of fruit and l actually lost a lot of weight and my blood pressure is perfect. Before, l rarely ate fruit but l was eating dairy and meat my blood pressure was always over 130. But now it s 120 or below.
Mine Was High When I Did Vegan, But I Blame The Grains. Now Trying Carnivore With Just Enough Fruit To Keep Me Out Of Ketosis, BP Seems To Be Dropping 🤔
I have followed both Dr. Paul and Dr. Ken since their earliest youtubes, and am a fan of both, and have been strict carnivore for three years. I healed my gut completely, and now am 9 months into reintroducing fruit as per Saladino. As an athlete who gets daily sun for hours in season, my performance has been absolutely amazing, no inflammation or fat deposition. YMMV if you are sedentary and indoors.
I am a fan of both too. I just shifted from beef, eggs, occasional sardines, fat, a bit of salt to adding in about 150 grams carbs from fruit. Starting with 25 grams a working up slowly to give my body time to ramp up insulin production. Recent study did show that fruit consumption made pre-existing NAFLD worse in diabetics. But another recent study showed no effect in people who are metabolically healthy. (too lazy to hunt up links)
@@terraflow__bryanburdo4547 Same. Once I got rid of IR which I actually did on whole foods vegan diet, I could eat BIG meal including some fruit and my blood glucose would top out around 120-125 max.
Once I added fruits (berries, applesauce) and small amounts of honey to my carnivore meals, all my nightly muscle cramps went away. I had been strict carnivore for 2+ years. I learned the lesson. No more strict carnivore.
..what should be mentioned in this video is that the sugar is absorbed very differently with fruits due to the fibre content of each different fruit so you get a slow release of the sugar as compared to junk food. I believe this is where the misconception occurs.
What are your opinions on berries? I eat Strawberries, Raspberries & Blueberries (Mulberries in my backyard too!) The most. Those are my main sources of fruit in small amounts throughout usually just a small handful with breakfast or in a shake with raw eggs & 8% buffalo milk or water sometimes yogurt or whey. What about PEACHES & WATERMELONS? I occasionally have some of those in the summer time just don't gorge like I used to on a big bowl of sugary fruit hahaha
Straight forward, and no non-sense. Thank you. I see so many medical types on YT and even in the Keto space, giving mixed messages on this. I know from my own experience that I can get just as woosey on the sugar picked off my own backyard fruit trees as I can from multiple packages of cheap candy from the Dollar Store. WHY are other doc's talking about the "protective" fiber in fruit? WHAT does that even mean?? The effects are the same!
I went on medical medium, Anthony Williams on eating lots of fruit, it almost killed me, my eczema went crazy and I ended up getting psoriasis which I neve did have. Now I am on Keto and it is almost gone the skin rashes. I won't touch sugar or fruit ever again.
Dr. Barry's video brilliantly dispels common myths about fruit sugars, backed by USDA data. His clarity on fructose, sucrose, and glucose content in bananas, grapes, apples, oranges, and mangoes educates effectively. A must-watch for debunking misconceptions and promoting informed nutrition choices.
I think fruit occasionally and sensibly is fine don't go eat a whole damn box of strawberries or eat a whole watermelon at once but I really don't think a slice of watermelon or a small bowl of fruit on the weekend is gonna harm u at all I eat low carb ketovore Monday through Friday then on Saturday or Sunday I might eat a little fruit and that works perfectly fine for me people been eating fruit occasionally when they could find it since the beginning of time.
The operative words in your comment are "occasionally" and "sensibly." The issue for many of us is moderation, so none is easier than a little. If I eat a little watermelon, the rest of it haunts me like a bad argument. 😂
A lot of people think fructose is less harmful than sucrose or glucose because it doesn't spike your insulin. They'll tell you how agave syrup is a healthy alternative to other sweeteners, among other lies. What they don't tell you is that almost all of the fructose you ingest is metabolized by your liver, and if the liver can't metabolize it all, it turns that fructose to fat. This leads to fatty liver disease, visceral fat, and other health problems. If the FDA, AMA, ADA and other 'health' organizations actually had our well being at heart, they would tell us to drastically slash or even eliminate all sugars, seed oils, processed foods and other crap from our diet.
I never felt good after eating fruit, even when I was little, and I never understand why. Now I do. Dr. Berry: Thank you - so much - for this information! 🌹
Thanks Doc. It's great you give explanations in chemistry terms and show the diagrams to everyone. It's rare to meet physician whose O chem is even decent. It is a very common misconception that plants somehow biosynth different molecules. A molecule is a molecule. If it was different it would be a different molecule. lol
Your information is so appreciated. I've watched your videos for several years since switching to KETO. I haven't eaten any fruit (or juice) for years and haven't missed them at all.
As someone who has a degree in chemistry, I started laughing at the comparison of the molecular formulas. But, indeed, Dr. Berry is totally right. There's no magic - the sugars are the same.
For me, fruit and honey is fine in moderate amounts, AS LONG as I make meat my dominant source of intake/satiation. If I were to make fruit/honey my main source of food that would be a whole different story. It's good to be aware of how each macro affects you from a snapshot, but the fact is we just don't fully understand diet from a broad and whole perspective, in terms of good and bad. What is considered good today will be bad again tomorrow, vice versa, etc. We can do our best, but we should ALL be skeptical in what we think we know and understand today.
@D B Moderation allows for everything to not have to exist in black and whites only. Otherwise, your diet becomes a religion. Your point for being low carb is not likely everybody's point. Ketosis doesn't have to be a forever goal or even a goal, depending on the person. And you are correct, I am not low carb whenever I decide to incorporate fruit/honey. 🤷♂
@@boomer6549 Moderation ia a myth. Something either has an effect or it doesnt. The Randall Cycle occurrs whether or not you eat low carb or high carb.
@@shogunofharlem8240 Moderation doesn't deny something has an effect, rather the effect is likely moderated. It amazes me how many people SO BADLY want to think only in black or white about something. Im not denying to be in ketosis, you need to eat low carb. A better question might be, "Is keto the always and forever goal? Is that really ideal? Maybe for some and not for others. There is space for both.
@D B it’s not ignorant…it’s called living life. I am hard core keto but occasionally having weed, fruit alcohol , potatoes or pasta is not killing me. Moderation works for many folks stop being self righteous. It’s folks like u that turn folks away when they are TELLING you what works for THEM🙄
@@TheAMW You are not 'hard core keto'. You folks have a problem with definitions, which is why you like the term 'moderation' which means nothing and everything at the same time.
A point about fructose and diabetes. Diabetes is diagnosed by chronically high blood sugars, so lots of effort is expended in returning those glucose levels to a normal range. The reason it matters is that glucose is a vital nutrient, but is strictly controlled by the body because it also potentially damaging to every cell of it is too high. Who cares if fructose doesn’t raise blood sugar levels? The real question is, does it damage cells? Yes, at about 7-10 times the rate of glucose. Saladino needs to stuff that papaya somewhere else. He’s totally gone off the deep end.
Saladino lives in the region where lots of stuff is natural, he literally picks it off the trees. He surfs for hours, sun there daily, probably minimum stress. His life is totally different from any of us or at least me. I went carnivore months ago, was doing great. Started adding fruit and of course bloating is back, weight started to creep up 😢. I LOVE berries! I may have to do week on just carnivore and week with a bit of fruit/berries and see how I do. And of course it increases my consumption of food.
I love seeing all his sheeps losing their mind about him eating fruit LMAO. Because thats the problem with the American diet. Too much fruit. Give me a break
Love you Dr. Berry! I went into the Food Database link you listed but don't understand what carbs by difference and carbs by summation mean - which one do I follow please?
I did Keto, OMAD for years. Switched to animal based diet with fruit. My labs changed only slightly but I remain insulin sensitive despite eating fruit daily. I feel fine. it's been less than a year so I'll check my kabs again. I heard thyroid can be damaged on prolonged keto?
Another pervasive myth about fruit is the one were they say that ancient fruits were somehow "healthier" than modern counterparts because of selective breeding and genetic modification. Ancient humans only ate fruit when it was in season and the biologically-adaptive imperative to eat it was because it triggered fat storage (by influcing our response to insulin, the primary fat storage hormone), and the extra fat stores helped us survive the cold, lean winter.
Ancient humans in rainforests had no seasons and access to different tasty fruits and leaves all year around. Never seen a fat chimp or other ape there in modern times, besides. If our ancestors got fatty liver, cancer and other issues by eating much fruit there would be no humans alive today.
@@stigsrnning6459 Humans are not chimpanzees. According to the definitions offered by various animal science Phd.'s, humans can be classed as "facultative trophic carnivores." Humans are an intellectually higher-order animals and are capable of using reason for our dietary choices. Although humans are not obligated to eat meat to survive, we thrive on diets that are heavy in nutritionally and calorically-dense, bioavailable meat, animal fats, and organs. Chimpanzees and Bonobos (our closest living relatives) are hypocarnivores as they obtain around 30% of their nutritional and caloric needs from eating other species of monkeys, rodents and, to a lesser degree, insects/invertebrates, and they seek-out and hunt for animal foods (even at times when the fruits they eat are ripe and in abundance). Their requirement for calorically and nutritionally dense food would only increase if thet were required to venture-out from the safety of the canopy, which our human ancestors did millions of years ago. The increase in human brain size is directly linked to hunting and our increased consumption of animals, as we were obligated to hunt for our prey as we travelled away from the abundance of fruit in the canopy..
@@stigsrnning6459 Humans are facultative trophic carnivores. In humans, the small intestine is about 6 meters or 20 feet long and the large intestine is about 1.5 meters or 5 feet long. The gastrointestinal tracts of the Chimpanzee, Orangutan, and adult human and a human fetus were studied and compared by Stevens and Hume in 1995. The chimpanzee intestines showed a longer appendix, a much lower number of loops in the small intestine, and the large intestine had increased haustrations, as compared to humans. It is thought that reduction of the gut is a function of the higher-quality, easier to digest (i.e., less fibrous) diet of humans realtive to other apes, and that an evolutionary trend for gut reduction began when early members of the genus Homo began to incorporate a greater amount of animal tissues (muscle, marrow, fat, organs, brain matter, etc.) about 2.5 million years ago. Since gut tissue is metabolically expensive, the reduction of the gut may have allowed early members of our genus to devote greater metabolic energy to brain growth and maintenance, thus relaxing a constraint on the evolutionary increase in brain size ( an idea known as the "expensive tissue hypothesis": Aiello & Wheeler, 1995). It has also been suggested that cooking, which breaks down plants fiber (cellulose and lignin) and connective tissue in meat (collagen) allowed early humans to extract more nutrients from foodstuff with less digestive effort, thus also contributing to an evolutionary reduction in (shortening of) energetically expensive gut tissue. Our primitive ancestors digestive systems would slowly evolve over time to be specialized toward a more meat-heavy diet. You only need to examine our current digestive system in comparison to our closest living relatives to witness this. In humans, the small intestine is about 6 meters or 20 feet long and the large intestine is about 1.5 meters or 5 feet long. The gastrointestinal tracts of the Chimpanzee, Orangutan, and adult human and a human fetus were studied and compared by Stevens and Hume in 1995.

Herbivores have specialized digestive systems equipped to process certain plant species that these animals have eaten since their evolutionary beginnings, always keeping up pace with the slow evolutionary changes and adapting to any defensive mutation the plant may develop over an evolutionary timeline. Ruminant digestive systems are one example of a highly-specialized fibrous plant matter digestive system.
@@miltonbates6425 Remember that sugar in fruits keep those fresh longer compared with meat and vegetables, then the primates eating those fruits have more time to find, gather and consume, letting the growth of more fruit trees increase.
A few years ago I had an LPN at work tell me the importance that it is to avoid sugar because cancer cells feed on sugar. The immediate question that popped into mind is, "Then how do you eat fruit?". I didn't ask her because I knew she wouldn't have the answer. Since March when I came across keto eating, I have since read numerous reports that fruits are not healthy because of the sugar content. Aren't 75% + of the calories in fruit from the sugars in them?
It's the carbs (which turn into glucose) that matter, not the calories. A properly working body can run on dual fuel. It accesses the glucose in the blood first and once it has used all of that it uses fat which can include your stored body fat, which is why people get slimmer when eating a low carb diet. My weighing scale isn't moving much at the moment but I am losing inches around parts of my body. It only 9 months I've gone from a 44" waist to 38" without even trying. The new underpants that I bought just before I changed to low carb are now huge on me and I've had to buy new ones.
I tried eating just beef water and Himalayan salt and was fatigued and dehydrated, so tried adding fruit back in and the pounds still melted off and I have tons of energy and well hydrated. From my experience fruit is metabolized much easier than other carbs. It works for me, but to each their own. I’m not going to stop eating fruit!
Your body "thought" that there was a food shortage, so it did not want to lose any weight. Once you added in a bit of fruit, your body recognized that there was not a food shortage, so it began letting go of the weight.
I honestly don’t think people believe me when I say fruit is bad for your liver. Nor that bacon and eggs is healthier than a bowl of cereal for breakfast. Even my own Internist told me “Enough with the Keto”. She’s concerned my weight is getting too low. I’m five foot, two and a half inches and weigh 120! It’s almost as if she wants me to get fat again!
I sure understand you. When I dropped from 250 lbs to 230 lbs, then came in at 228, my Dr got very concerned and said you need to stop the weight loss! I’m 5’6”, 228 is still way obese, and I rolled my eyes and ignored him! I know he means well and has gotten me out of a few issues, but he has to live with the fact no I won’t take statins and no I won’t eat your vegetarian (his is for religious reasons) way of eating. Slowly he is learning.
@@VeldaE12 I assume you are a woman. I am a guy the same height as you. I went from 254 to today I hit the scales at 160. I still have a way to go to rid of my tummy. BTW, according to the BMI chart, I am still considered overweight.

Dr. Berry! Please do a video on exercise and metabolic profiles/lipid profiles. Whether resistance training and cardiovascular steady state training benefit bioenergetics and insulin sensitivity. Love your videos!
Mango is so delectable. I dig into the skin with my teeth hoping there is a trap door with more. I'll be giving it up now. It was a once-in-a-while treat.
Actually fruits contain structured water that is extremley beneficial to the body and their "life" or light , vibratuonal quota is very high. Its not just chemicals that are important in what we eat but how alive the food is. I ve been eating loads of fruits for years : usually 5 apples a day plus berries , bananas , avocados , strawberries . I have stable weight , aged 65 , no health issues and feeling great. I follow what my body craves mostly but dont eat any junk foods or fried foods. Its not as black and white as science tells you
Yeah I agree, I believe every person and body is different there for the diet is as well. If fruit works well with your body then great and if it doesn’t then take it out
Thank you Dr. Berry. I have a hard-headed friend who thinks doing keto is unhealthy... but she's super fat, eats tons of fruit and sugar and feels tired and cranky all the time. 😂
Not true. If she is fat she's fat, fruits and food are not to blame. I am fruiterian and so is my whole family from great great grand ancestors all the way down to my generation. No one diets, we eat what is natural from the Earth and that we believe is healthy. No one of us is fat.vwe are very thin at BMI 19 athletic and healthy. Live your life, not people life

Seasonally appropriate fruits, taking into consideration one's personal carbohydrate tolerance and metabolic health, may work for some. Keeping in mind most folks are metabolically unhealthy.
Thank you for doing this video, Dr. Berry. A lot of my doctors have told me vegetables and proteins, and to STAY AWAY from fruit because of the sugar. I am pre-Diabetic.

You should openly debate CarnivoreMD. He is pro carnivore+fruits. He eats a TON of fruit everyday. We are talking an entire pineapple, mango and a couple bananas for breakfast. That's alot of carbs and sugar. Ironically, his blood panel numbers improved since doing it. He has a video where he shows us. I have also started eating alot of watermelon on a daily basis (I live in Las Vegas so I tend to feel dehydrated even after drinking water and electrolytes). I still continue to lose weight since doing so. I'm actually down now from 140 to 138 by incorporating watermelon, a full squeezed lemon and ACV at breakfast, and sometimes apples. I also feel more satiated and have more energy for working out.
same for me after incorporating green smoothies with greens and berries I got my blood sugar from 101 to 70 in less than year…I think that fruits and only fruits diet can improve health very quickly as they can cleanse but its when the fruits are eaten at the wrong times or too often with cooked foods or too close to other foods that it can mess us up for example like America makes it okay to eat fruit with a sandwich and chips as lunch and thats just not good …watermelon is amazing and I love it fresh green juices and fruit juices have helped so many ppl heal auto immune diseases but the average person isnt going to just eat fruit and green juice only and nothjng else to heal so it is what it is I do agree with Dr. Berry in that fruit can hinder so its best to understand nutrition and when and how to properly eat fruits
It's because fruit isn't bad for you. Majority of people can tolerate it with no significant adverse effects and there's even cases of diabetics reversing their condition eating fruit. The people that can't tolerate it are the exception and there's something wrong with their metabolic function. Can't blame the fruit, that would be like a person with broken legs blaming walking and exercise for worsening their condition. A lot of these carnivore gurus also call the mechanistical data/science as facts, but they're not facts at all as we're still studying how human physiology works on different individuals on a microscopic level. It's a theory or educated guess. Simple clear results are more accurate. Most people after eating fruit benefit from it, especially if they're healthy individuals.
Back in the 90s, I attended OA (Overeaters Anonymous) with a partner. I'm finding myself wondering if fruit is part of the reason that the program often failed. We were encouraged to eat a piece of fruit for breakfast - and to pick the biggest and juiciest one we could find. That and the fact that the base of the diet was two pounds of vegetables per day. Some vegetables are very high in sugar and I noticed that many members tended to focus on those vegetables.
Juicy and aromatic fruit has a very high satiation levels which is so important if you have problems with overeating. It makes you feel fuller. That's probably why it was recommended. Not sure what your aim was- but as an overeater myself (I used to be anorexic/bulimic and this damaged my brain-stomach-brain response) I would say their way of thinking was sort of right. Adding loads of veg's and some fruit to the diet would make a difference for somebody addicted to junk food.
Ate a mango yesterday just to see what I have been missing for the past two years.off sugar, and my body temperature spiked which is how I know that my body cannot handle it. Also, my right arm itched horribly for the next 8 hours. ( I once went a couple of years without being able to get to sleep before 3am due to upper body itching. ).
This makes me VERY SAD, I love summer fruits, I really do, I buy pluots, nectarines, plums, watermelon and peaches. I really didn’t know about the sugar levels being so outrageous I always drink concentrated orange every morning. So now I hear I have to cut all this out to cut down on fatty liver foods. 😩
@@PieInTheSky9 when you are metabolically healthy and exercise 4 hours a day with lots of sun like Paul Saladino, you can probably eat fruit. For most of us, it just doesn’t work.
This is true we shouldnt over do it on fruit but if you take person A who eats 60grams of sugar from donuts and honey buns every day and person B who gets the same amount from fruit they will definitely look feel and perform very differently. Just like protein from steak is very different from pea protein or egg protein etc. Just like not all fats are created equal sugar fructose and glucose react differently in our bodies
My dad was pre diabetic he eat mostly fruit and reversed it completely so relax enjoy fruit

I tried the Carnivore Diet for a couple of weeks and felt horrible. My heart started palpating and I couldn't sleep at all. (Before the Carnivore Diet, I was on the Keto Diet following Dr. Berg on UA-cam) Since I was feeling so horrible from Carnivore Diet, I chose to add fruit, raw dairy (goats milk) and a little raw honey. Now I am back to normal and have plenty of energy again and sleeping well. I saw Dr. Paul Saladino eating this diet I am now on and how healthy he is... so I gave it a try and I love it!
The statement you made about fruit in another video has been a game changer for me. You said that today's fruits have been bred to be so sweet and they are little sacks of sugar. As a diabetic this really resonated with me so I stopped having fruit on a daily basis. I occasionally have a couple of strawberries & that has had a huge impact on my A1C. It dropped from 6.2 to now 5.3 at my last dr visit. My dr reduced my insulin dose twice since the beginning of this year & said I am well on my way to reversing my diabetes. THANK YOU DR BERRY!!!!!
Glad to know about your improved blood sugar. But have you been thinking about other health markers which are affected by diffiencies in vitamins and minerals? Or by overconsumption of animal products and fats?
Blood sugar is not the only health marker to worry about.
@@abdelrahmanelsheikh5798 I was diagnosed with d3 & b12 deficiencies decades ago and have been on supplements to correct that since then. I have all markers tested regularly. I do eat vegetables which are low in oxalates and not inflammatory. All of my markers, including inflammatory markers, have improved. Best (very thorough) labs I have received in 30 years.
All berries are highly recommended for Diabetics (except maybe by this doctor).
@@JamesThompson-ol3eu I have been monitoring my blood glucose very closely. If I have a few berries (not the box) my glucose does not skyrocket like it did with other fruit.
@@lindaa2437 please what accurate strips to use at home?
I stopped eating fruits in 2018, when I initially began the ketogenic way of eating, and have not had any fruit since. I just recently had blood work done (a week ago), and my Nurse Practioner says my labs looked great!
Of course, she's a bit concerned about the slightly "elevated" cholesterol levels. However, I informed her that - in my opinion - since I am NOT eating a traditional "western/American" diet, but do consume a LARGE amount of fatty red meats, that the cholesterol numbers were likely fine, and not to worry. I'll probably out-live her (I'm 60).
Thanks Dr. Berry!
Beautiful. So you are able to stay on purely meat, with no fruits or other carbs? What about cheese and butter? Any thoughts on that? Im starting to think those would have to be unpasteurized as that process fills it up with some sketchy chemicals... :) (Been carnivore myself for 6 months and have learned I cant eat fruits or drink so far... But I do wonder if its best to be in ketosis all the time or if it should be broken up at times?)
@@Meatups whenever I break out of Keto I loose my keys, forget where I parked, get a bit moody... So I always go back to a Ketovore style of eating since 2018 as well. It's my new normal. Not being in ketosis is weird.
Hi, may I ask how high is your Cholesterol because I have the same problem but Triglycerides is low also HDL 1.8, thank you.
Check out the Cholesterol Code
You are wrong not to worry about elevated blood cholestrol from animal fats. They have shown to cause heart and artery disease which is the number 1 killer in the US. If you choose to ignore that because of the keto community misinformation, it's your choice, but you are wrong!
I absolutely love your videos and information. My brother turned me on to you and the ketogenic diet. I have to say that you are so helpful in understanding the diet and all of the myths that we have been taught all of our lives. I have completely changed and healed my body from the inside out. My A1C was 6.2 and now it's 5.0. My triglycerides were at one time 477 and now it's at 118. My cholesterol levels are now in the normal range also. I can't thank you enough for telling us the TRUTH! Finally, a doctor who isn't afraid to speak up. Oh, and by the way, my pcp is completely on board with me doing this keto diet. He is so pleased with my results. Please know that I'm sending you a great big hug and a thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Amazing that we’ve been snookered all these years. I heard a lady on a Facebook live the other day describing a recipe she was making. She was using grapes and said she was on weight watchers so the fruit is a free food. That is crazy that fruit is free on WW.

@@c_b5060 I think it does work - the first time! I achieved one of their little badges back in the 70/80's. [It was around the time they brought in baked beans]. Even on maintenance I lost weight. This is probably what they bank on - it doesn't last. The second time I joined WW nothing shifted. Fruit was weighed then, and certainly wasn't free.
At one point they were pushing recipes using fructose as a healthier sweetener. I lost weight when fruit was one point, then they made it free and I was off to the races with fruit and couldn't stick to the plan.

Fruits are not only sugar. They are packed full of vits fiber potassium magnesium and even protein and other nutrients.
You just eat in moderation and like with any other foods, exercise, go for a walk after a meal, keep busy and active. Following a strict diet, any diet, and sitting at computer desk all day long and laying on the couch watching TV at night won't do any good.
Use common sense and enjoy the food. Fruits are good if you know how to eat and when to eat them.
So how much fruit and berries should a person eat per day I ate quite a few of everything
Eating fruits is best when we totally cut human made sugar and pastries and beverages. Only source of sweet is through fruits naturally it's awesome. Eat what nature shares with us instead of listening BS from modern doctors.. just eat fruits and vegetables.
That's right, and potassium counteracts the negative effects of sodium, which is usually high blood pressure.

Thank you for another great video. Quick update: almost 1 month on a carnivore type diet plus IF, and im down 20lbs, Thank you for that! I don't know if i could have done it without your Channel and my friends.
Very good information, I've always wondered about this. I have heard that the best options as far as fruit goes, are berries, as they are lowest in sugar, yet still high in nutrients.
First of all I rarely comment on any videos, but I have to say this one hits home. I have followed you along with several other doctors including Paul Saladino for many years. I like Paul a lot and feel like I’ve learned a great deal from him. I decided to go full strict Carnivore in January of 2020. My physical health certainly improved, but my mental health is where i saw the most significant changes. The deep sadness and depression I had lived with the majority of my 38 years had almost completely lifted along with the heavy anxiety attacks I would have daily. It was profound. About 4 months ago I decided to add in some fruits (organic blueberries, organic mango, ys eco bee farms organic raw honey). I valued Paul’s perspective and figured “why not”. At first I didn’t seem to notice much of a difference. I wasn’t bloated, my skin didn’t break out, my bowel movements remained somewhat similar. However sugar (at least for me and my body and brain) is a sneaky little devil. I found myself not wanting to get out of bed in the mornings, and distancing myself from all of my friends. I had bouts of extreme emotional distress even though nothing in my life had really changed. Without even realizing it I was back in a deep depression surrounded by the heaviness of anxiety. Also if that wasn’t heartbreaking enough I was now fully addicted to sugar again. Paul says seed oils are what makes you not be able to stop eating. I can tell you for an absolute fact he is wrong! I could never debate him or understand the science to his degree, but I do know my own body and mind better than anyone! I have not touched one drop of seed oils in over 3 years and I could not stop eating mangos or honey! I was eating up to a pound of honey per day it still took everything I had to put it back in the cupboard. I also ate so much mango (even when I wasn’t actually hungry). All I would think about when I wasn’t home was getting back and eating those foods. The cravings were insane. As smart as Paul obviously is, he is missing something extremely crucial here and is spreading misinformation to so many people! I have since then gone through all of the withdrawal symptoms and am back on a Carnivore diet again and finally feel like my life is coming back together. I’m out of bed early and am back around friends and participating in life. I appreciate you Dr Berry, your videos have been very valuable in my life!
Yeah, instead of a witch in a gingerbread house, the road to ruin is Paul in a mango hut with a boogie board by the door.
I did the honey experiment and really started to feel worse. Strict carnivore for me.
Thanks for sharing! But a pound of honey a day? Damn , that is so, so extreme and pure sugar! How did you do that? No wonder you fell back.
Happy to hear you overcame it.
@@muratisik6956 I completely agree that it’s extreme. As crazy as it sounds I could have easily eaten more than that. I felt so addicted to honey and especially mango that I felt like no matter how much I ate it wasn’t enough.
The cravings were more powerful than I can explain. As much as I love those foods, they unfortunately can’t be a part of my life.
@@coffeemachtspass absolutely man, gotta be strict carnivore for me as well.
I agree with you. There’s a UA-cam video “why did Paul Saladino quit carnivore” by carnivore camaraderie, that says Paul is actually going to pay if he doesn’t wake up. Good video
Thank you, Dr. Berry! This is good information.
Now I don't eat fruit, unless its fermented. But I would like to see a video with you and Dr. SALADINO, because he shows studies in favor of fruit. I don't understand the science, So I would like to see you both have a friendly discussion about this. THANKS

I have followed both Dr. Paul and Dr. Ken since their earliest youtubes, and am a fan of both, and have been strict carnivore for three years. I healed my gut completely, and now am 9 months into reintroducing fruit as per Saladino. As an athlete who gets daily sun for hours in season, my performance has been absolutely amazing, no inflammation or fat deposition. YMMV if you are sedentary and indoors.
I am a fan of both too. I just shifted from beef, eggs, occasional sardines, fat, a bit of salt to adding in about 150 grams carbs from fruit. Starting with 25 grams a working up slowly to give my body time to ramp up insulin production.

..what should be mentioned in this video is that the sugar is absorbed very differently with fruits due to the fibre content of each different fruit so you get a slow release of the sugar as compared to junk food.

What are your opinions on berries? I eat Strawberries, Raspberries & Blueberries (Mulberries in my backyard too!) The most.

What about PEACHES & WATERMELONS? I occasionally have some of those in the summer time just don't gorge like I used to on a big bowl of sugary fruit hahaha
Straight forward, and no non-sense. Thank you.
I see so many medical types on YT and even in the Keto space, giving mixed messages on this. I know from my own experience that I can get just as woosey on the sugar picked off my own backyard fruit trees as I can from multiple packages of cheap candy from the Dollar Store. WHY are other doc's talking about the "protective" fiber in fruit? WHAT does that even mean?? The effects are the same!
Terrific information.
Thank you!
I went on medical medium, Anthony Williams on eating lots of fruit, it almost killed me, my eczema went crazy and I ended up getting psoriasis which I neve did have. Now I am on Keto and it is almost gone the skin rashes. I won't touch sugar or fruit ever again.

You are smart. I owe you much in terms of accurate health information. Many thanks.
I think fruit occasionally and sensibly is fine don't go eat a whole damn box of strawberries or eat a whole watermelon at once but I really don't think a slice of watermelon or a small bowl of fruit on the weekend is gonna harm u at all I eat low carb ketovore Monday through Friday then on Saturday or Sunday I might eat a little fruit and that works perfectly fine for me people been eating fruit occasionally when they could find it since the beginning of time.
The operative words in your comment are "occasionally" and "sensibly." The issue for many of us is moderation, so none is easier than a little. If I eat a little watermelon, the rest of it haunts me like a bad argument. 😂

Thank you for your information. I love your videos
A lot of people think fructose is less harmful than sucrose or glucose because it doesn't spike your insulin. They'll tell you how agave syrup is a healthy alternative to other sweeteners, among other lies.
What they don't tell you is that almost all of the fructose you ingest is metabolized by your liver, and if the liver can't metabolize it all, it turns that fructose to fat. This leads to fatty liver disease, visceral fat, and other health problems.
If the FDA, AMA, ADA and other 'health' organizations actually had our well being at heart, they would tell us to drastically slash or even eliminate all sugars, seed oils, processed foods and other crap from our diet.
I never felt good after eating fruit, even when I was little, and I never understand why. Now I do.

For me, fruit and honey is fine in moderate amounts, AS LONG as I make meat my dominant source of intake/satiation. If I were to make fruit/honey my main source of food that would be a whole different story.
It's good to be aware of how each macro affects you from a snapshot, but the fact is we just don't fully understand diet from a broad and whole perspective, in terms of good and bad. What is considered good today will be bad again tomorrow, vice versa, etc. We can do our best, but we should ALL be skeptical in what we think we know and understand today.
@D B Moderation allows for everything to not have to exist in black and whites only. Otherwise, your diet becomes a religion. Your point for being low carb is not likely everybody's point. Ketosis doesn't have to be a forever goal or even a goal, depending on the person. And you are correct, I am not low carb whenever I decide to incorporate fruit/honey. 🤷♂
@@boomer6549
Moderation ia a myth. Something either has an effect or it doesnt.
The Randall Cycle occurrs whether or not you eat low carb or high carb.
@@shogunofharlem8240 Moderation doesn't deny something has an effect, rather the effect is likely moderated. It amazes me how many people SO BADLY want to think only in black or white about something. Im not denying to be in ketosis, you need to eat low carb. A better question might be, "Is keto the always and forever goal? Is that really ideal? Maybe for some and not for others. There is space for both.
@D B it’s not ignorant…it’s called living life. I am hard core keto but occasionally having weed, fruit alcohol , potatoes or pasta is not killing me. Moderation works for many folks stop being self righteous. It’s folks like u that turn folks away when they are TELLING you what works for THEM🙄
@@TheAMW
You are not 'hard core keto'. You folks have a problem with definitions, which is why you like the term 'moderation' which means nothing and everything at the same time.
A point about fructose and diabetes.
Diabetes is diagnosed by chronically high blood sugars, so lots of effort is expended in returning those glucose levels to a normal range. The reason it matters is that glucose is a vital nutrient, but is strictly controlled by the body because it also potentially damaging to every cell of it is too high.
Who cares if fructose doesn’t raise blood sugar levels? The real question is, does it damage cells? Yes, at about 7-10 times the rate of glucose.
Saladino needs to stuff that papaya somewhere else. He’s totally gone off the deep end.
Thanks. I learned something today.
Saladino lives in the region where lots of stuff is natural, he literally picks it off the trees. He surfs for hours, sun there daily, probably minimum stress. His life is totally different from any of us or at least me. I went carnivore months ago, was doing great. Started adding fruit and of course bloating is back, weight started to creep up 😢. I LOVE berries! I may have to do week on just carnivore and week with a bit of fruit/berries and see how I do. And of course it increases my consumption of food.
I love seeing all his sheeps losing their mind about him eating fruit LMAO. Because thats the problem with the American diet. Too much fruit. Give me a break
@@skatinka5788 exactly, context matters. Abide by the laws of nature where you are and you'll be fine
@@thisjointisloose ... 😂
Thank you SO MUCH! It makes so much more sense to me now.
Love you Dr. Berry! I went into the Food Database link you listed but don't understand what carbs by difference and carbs by summation mean - which one do I follow please?
I did Keto, OMAD for years. Switched to animal based diet with fruit. My labs changed only slightly but I remain insulin sensitive despite eating fruit daily. I feel fine. it's been less than a year so I'll check my kabs again. I heard thyroid can be damaged on prolonged keto?
Another pervasive myth about fruit is the one were they say that ancient fruits were somehow "healthier" than modern counterparts because of selective breeding and genetic modification. Ancient humans only ate fruit when it was in season and the biologically-adaptive imperative to eat it was because it triggered fat storage (by influcing our response to insulin, the primary fat storage hormone), and the extra fat stores helped us survive the cold, lean winter.
You are tuned in to how all this works. I've learned so much from Dr. Berry.
Ancient humans in rainforests had no seasons and access to different tasty fruits and leaves all year around. Never seen a fat chimp or other ape there in modern times, besides. If our ancestors got fatty liver, cancer and other issues by eating much fruit there would be no humans alive today.
@@stigsrnning6459 Humans are not chimpanzees. According to the definitions offered by various animal science Phd.'s, humans can be classed as "facultative trophic carnivores."
Humans are an intellectually higher-order animals and are capable of using reason for our dietary choices. Although humans are not obligated to eat meat to survive, we thrive on diets that are heavy in nutritionally and calorically-dense, bioavailable meat, animal fats, and organs. Chimpanzees and Bonobos (our closest living relatives) are hypocarnivores as they obtain around 30% of their nutritional and caloric needs from eating other species of monkeys, rodents and, to a lesser degree, insects/invertebrates, and they seek-out and hunt for animal foods (even at times when the fruits they eat are ripe and in abundance). Their requirement for calorically and nutritionally dense food would only increase if thet were required to venture-out from the safety of the canopy, which our human ancestors did millions of years ago. The increase in human brain size is directly linked to hunting and our increased consumption of animals, as we were obligated to hunt for our prey as we travelled away from the abundance of fruit in the canopy..
@@stigsrnning6459 Humans are facultative trophic carnivores. In humans, the small intestine is about 6 meters or 20 feet long and the large intestine is about 1.5 meters or 5 feet long. The gastrointestinal tracts of the Chimpanzee, Orangutan, and adult human and a human fetus were studied and compared by Stevens and Hume in 1995. The chimpanzee intestines showed a longer appendix, a much lower number of loops in the small intestine, and the large intestine had increased haustrations, as compared to humans. It is thought that reduction of the gut is a function of the higher-quality, easier to digest (i.e., less fibrous) diet of humans realtive to other apes, and that an evolutionary trend for gut reduction began when early members of the genus Homo began to incorporate a greater amount of animal tissues (muscle, marrow, fat, organs, brain matter, etc.) about 2.5 million years ago. Since gut tissue is metabolically expensive, the reduction of the gut may have allowed early members of our genus to devote greater metabolic energy to brain growth and maintenance, thus relaxing a constraint on the evolutionary increase in brain size ( an idea known as the "expensive tissue hypothesis": Aiello & Wheeler, 1995). It has also been suggested that cooking, which breaks down plants fiber (cellulose and lignin) and connective tissue in meat (collagen) allowed early humans to extract more nutrients from foodstuff with less digestive effort, thus also contributing to an evolutionary reduction in (shortening of) energetically expensive gut tissue.
Our primitive ancestors digestive systems would slowly evolve over time to be specialized toward a more meat-heavy diet. You only need to examine our current digestive system in comparison to our closest living relatives to witness this. In humans, the small intestine is about 6 meters or 20 feet long and the large intestine is about 1.5 meters or 5 feet long. The gastrointestinal tracts of the Chimpanzee, Orangutan, and adult human and a human fetus were studied and compared by Stevens and Hume in 1995.

Herbivores have specialized digestive systems equipped to process certain plant species that these animals have eaten since their evolutionary beginnings, always keeping up pace with the slow evolutionary changes and adapting to any defensive mutation the plant may develop over an evolutionary timeline. Ruminant digestive systems are one example of a highly-specialized fibrous plant matter digestive system.
@@miltonbates6425 Remember that sugar in fruits keep those fresh longer compared with meat and vegetables, then the primates eating those fruits have more time to find, gather and consume, letting the growth of more fruit trees increase.
Such valuable information...thank you. I'm watching the fruits from now on....cutting down for sure
Thanks for clearing this up.
A few years ago I had an LPN at work tell me the importance that it is to avoid sugar because cancer cells feed on sugar. The immediate question that popped into mind is, "Then how do you eat fruit?". I didn't ask her because I knew she wouldn't have the answer. Since March when I came across keto eating, I have since read numerous reports that fruits are not healthy because of the sugar content. Aren't 75% + of the calories in fruit from the sugars in them?
It's the carbs (which turn into glucose) that matter, not the calories. A properly working body can run on dual fuel. It accesses the glucose in the blood first and once it has used all of that it uses fat which can include your stored body fat, which is why people get slimmer when eating a low carb diet. My weighing scale isn't moving much at the moment but I am losing inches around parts of my body. It only 9 months I've gone from a 44" waist to 38" without even trying. The new underpants that I bought just before I changed to low carb are now huge on me and I've had to buy new ones.
Look for a new video from Dr. Anthony Chaffee. He interviews a cancer researcher who studies the effect of diet on cancer treatment.
Dr Berry, it's TRUE that an apple a day keeps the doctor away, but only if you throw hard and your aim is good! 😆
Great video ken
Good stuff Doc!
I tried eating just beef water and Himalayan salt and was fatigued and dehydrated, so tried adding fruit back in and the pounds still melted off and I have tons of energy and well hydrated. From my experience fruit is metabolized much easier than other carbs. It works for me, but to each their own. I’m not going to stop eating fruit!
I enjoy a bowl of fruit a day. A lot better than eating junk and or candy.
Your body "thought" that there was a food shortage, so it did not want to lose any weight. Once you added in a bit of fruit, your body recognized that there was not a food shortage, so it began letting go of the weight.
people like Ken are just full on...everything in moderation is the way to go
Laurie Jennings ... Yes I love fresh fruit and eat lots of it every day, it's so easily digestible and leaves me feeling great.
@@martinwebb1681 That's what's know as a sugar addiction. It makes you feel great, so why in the world would you not eat it again?
I honestly don’t think people believe me when I say fruit is bad for your liver. Nor that bacon and eggs is healthier than a bowl of cereal for breakfast. Even my own Internist told me “Enough with the Keto”. She’s concerned my weight is getting too low. I’m five foot, two and a half inches and weigh 120! It’s almost as if she wants me to get fat again!
I am 5 5 , 123 pounds and when I sit down, the belly looks nasty. You can lose way more fat.
I sure understand you. When I dropped from 250 lbs to 230 lbs, then came in at 228, my Dr got very concerned and said you need to stop the weight loss! I’m 5’6”, 228 is still way obese, and I rolled my eyes and ignored him! I know he means well and has gotten me out of a few issues, but he has to live with the fact no I won’t take statins and no I won’t eat your vegetarian (his is for religious reasons) way of eating. Slowly he is learning.
So having adequate choline cancels out all the sugar in fruit??
@@VeldaE12 I assume you are a woman. I am a guy the same height as you. I went from 254 to today I hit the scales at 160. I still have a way to go to rid of my tummy. BTW, according to the BMI chart, I am still considered overweight.
I knew a farmer that ate bacon 🥓and eggs for breakfast and sometimes supper his whole life he lived to be a 100 probably would have lived longer but fell off his bicycle when he was 96 or 97 and broke his hip
Dr. Berry! Please do a video on exercise and metabolic profiles/lipid profiles. Whether resistance training and cardiovascular steady state training benefit bioenergetics and insulin sensitivity. Love your videos!
Mango is so delectable. I dig into the skin with my teeth hoping there is a trap door with more. I'll be giving it up now. It was a once-in-a-while treat.
Actually fruits contain structured water that is extremley beneficial to the body and their "life" or light , vibratuonal quota is very high. Its not just chemicals that are important in what we eat but how alive the food is. I ve been eating loads of fruits for years : usually 5 apples a day plus berries , bananas , avocados , strawberries . I have stable weight , aged 65 , no health issues and feeling great. I follow what my body craves mostly but dont eat any junk foods or fried foods. Its not as black and white as science tells you
yep I believe fresh fruit is fine in moderation and it's 'life force' is very therapeutic
Good for you, wish people would understand how good for you fruits are
Yep 50% of my daily diet is fresh fruit, I love the way its so easily digestible leaves my stomach feeling light and great.
Yeah I agree, I believe every person and body is different there for the diet is as well. If fruit works well with your body then great and if it doesn’t then take it out
@@Seraphielium 100% agree

Thank you Dr. Berry. I have a hard-headed friend who thinks doing keto is unhealthy... but she's super fat, eats tons of fruit and sugar and feels tired and cranky all the time. 😂
Not true. If she is fat she's fat, fruits and food are not to blame. I am fruiterian and so is my whole family from great great grand ancestors all the way down to my generation.

You should debate Dr. Paul Saladino on how much fruit should be part of the optimal diet
Seasonally appropriate fruits, taking into consideration one's personal carbohydrate tolerance and metabolic health, may work for some. Keeping in mind most folks are metabolically unhealthy.
Thanks Dr. Berry for this great video
another great video thank you
Thank you for doing this video, Dr. Berry. A lot of my doctors have told me vegetables and proteins, and to STAY AWAY from fruit because of the sugar. I am pre-Diabetic. I am doing Optavia which does not allow fruit in the first phase, which is the 5&1 fat burn phase. I am 168.8 lbs right now with a weight goal of between 118-128 lbs.
Fat is your friend. You'll get tired of protein without it. See Dr. Berry's videos for more info.

You should openly debate CarnivoreMD. He is pro carnivore+fruits. He eats a TON of fruit everyday. We are talking an entire pineapple, mango and a couple bananas for breakfast. That's alot of carbs and sugar.
Ironically, his blood panel numbers improved since doing it. He has a video where he shows us.
I have also started eating alot of watermelon on a daily basis (I live in Las Vegas so I tend to feel dehydrated even after drinking water and electrolytes). I still continue to lose weight since doing so. I'm actually down now from 140 to 138 by incorporating watermelon, a full squeezed lemon and ACV at breakfast, and sometimes apples. I also feel more satiated and have more energy for working out.
same for me after incorporating green smoothies with greens and berries I got my blood sugar from 101 to 70 in less than year…I think that fruits and only fruits diet can improve health very quickly as they can cleanse but its when the fruits are eaten at the wrong times or too often with cooked foods or too close to other foods that it can mess us up for example like America makes it okay to eat fruit with a sandwich and chips as lunch and thats just not good …watermelon is amazing and I love it fresh green juices and fruit juices have helped so many ppl heal auto immune diseases but the average person isnt going to just eat fruit and green juice only and nothjng else to heal so it is what it is I do agree with Dr. Berry in that fruit can hinder so its best to understand nutrition and when and how to properly eat fruits
@@SadaMMcCoy Fruits should always be eaten on an empty stomach....preferably in the mornings
@@AlanForde-CheyneMS 💯percent agree
He does a lot of sport. Maybe this plays a role too?
It's because fruit isn't bad for you. Majority of people can tolerate it with no significant adverse effects and there's even cases of diabetics reversing their condition eating fruit. The people that can't tolerate it are the exception and there's something wrong with their metabolic function. Can't blame the fruit, that would be like a person with broken legs blaming walking and exercise for worsening their condition. A lot of these carnivore gurus also call the mechanistical data/science as facts, but they're not facts at all as we're still studying how human physiology works on different individuals on a microscopic level. It's a theory or educated guess. Simple clear results are more accurate. Most people after eating fruit benefit from it, especially if they're healthy individuals.
Thank you very much Dr. You are a life saver. 🙏🏼❤️
Thank you Dr Berry. You encourage me to stay strong in keto lifestyle
It's amazing to me that people forget that fruit and grains used to only be seasonal.
And people didn't eat grains at all until a few thousand years ago.

Back in the 90s, I attended OA (Overeaters Anonymous) with a partner. I'm finding myself wondering if fruit is part of the reason that the program often failed. We were encouraged to eat a piece of fruit for breakfast - and to pick the biggest and juiciest one we could find.
That and the fact that the base of the diet was two pounds of vegetables per day. Some vegetables are very high in sugar and I noticed that many members tended to focus on those vegetables.
Juicy and aromatic fruit has a very high satiation levels which is so important if you have problems with overeating. It makes you feel fuller. That's probably why it was recommended. Not sure what your aim was- but as an overeater myself (I used to be anorexic/bulimic and this damaged my brain-stomach-brain response) I would say their way of thinking was sort of right. Adding loads of veg's and some fruit to the diet would make a difference for somebody addicted to junk food.
Thanks for your knowledge. You definitely cleared up the debate for me. Respect and blessings 💪🏾🇺🇲
LOVE YOUR INFO, could you please do a top five of lowest sugar for fruits. I CHECKED blueberry and strawberry and they look low. DO you agree?

I really didn’t know about the sugar levels being so outrageous I always drink concentrated orange every morning. So now I hear I have to cut all this out to cut down on fatty liver foods. 😩
Check out Paul saladino, he has very good evidence as to why you shouldn't give up fruits.
They should be eaten in season if you like fruit because the summer is the time to store fat for the winter according to the plant paradox book.
Eating seasonally is fine if you re healthy.
@@PieInTheSky9 when you are metabolically healthy and exercise 4 hours a day with lots of sun like Paul Saladino, you can probably eat fruit. For most of us, it just doesn’t work.
@@ClintGilliam Well the argument is that adding fruit and raw honey can lead to metabolic health in the first place.
Thank you so much
This is true we shouldnt over do it on fruit but if you take person A who eats 60grams of sugar from donuts and honey buns every day and person B who gets the same amount from fruit they will definitely look feel and perform very differently. Just like protein from steak is very different from pea protein or egg protein etc. Just like not all fats are created equal sugar fructose and glucose react differently in our bodies
