Is the sugar in fruit bad for you? - Dr. Eric Westman

- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- People are very surprised when they see the food list Dr. Westman uses-there’s no fruit! With other ways of eating, it often seems like the more fruits & vegetables, the better. But keto diets are different.
Fruit isn’t “bad” for you, but when you need to keep your total carbohydrate intake very low in order to lose weight or reverse chronic issues like type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome, you need to limit all sources of sugar and starch, and that includes the sugar in fruit. If your carb tolerance is a bit higher, you might have room for berries and other lower-glycemic fruits, but some folks need to avoid fruit altogether for a while. Learn more in this week's video.

I have had such a difficult time getting this info into my thick skull....sugar begats sugar cravings no matter where the sugar comes from candy bar or fruit. When I cut fruit/all sugar out for several weeks...then I just add back a few berries a few times per week with my eggs in the morning I do very well. Side note: my sister has aggressive lung cancer, getting chemo, still smoking and eats a TON of sugar daily...PLEASE TAKE YOUR HEALTH SERIOUSLY FRIENDS...PLEASE. Your health matters!!!!!!!
I wish your sister good health. Lung cancer causes a misery of suffering before it kills you. Any person taking chemo for any kind of cancer has much better chances if they go into nutritional ketosis, which means a diet as close to zero carbs as possible.
But here is a tragic practice: most hospital care will try to encourage chemo patients to eat by giving them sugar foods.
Hospitals do that for all their patients, not just cancer patients. I have diabetes and the hospital dietician knew I had diabetes, but still the food trays, that had a piece of paper saying "diabetic meal", came with sugar muffins, apple juice, orange juice, banana, jam. Yogurt made with rice starch. Not every single hospital is like this, but the three hospitals in my area are like this. We have to unite to get the food guideline for registered dietitians changed to allow institutions (hospitals, schools, old age care homes, military, lunch cafeterias in businesses) to offer low carb - high fat menu. Now it is the opposite. Institutions will insist on serving vegetables oils, not animal fat. Insist on 50 percent carbs, not low carbs.
In the long run society must change. Rates of cancer, diabetes, cardio-vascular disease, auto-immune disease, you name it, are all going sky high.
She passed away last June. I appreciate your warm thoughts and helpful tips tho. She was unwilling to make any changes, she smoked, drank, ate bad food right up to her death. You are right...hospitals keep giving em carbs and sugar, just sickening. Anywho, I eat a keto and hope for continued good health. @@blahblah6725
I also love you explain that excessive fat intake is not necessary after becoming fat adapted. I find lowering the amount of fat helps in the weight loss phase.
for sure
Fruit like avocado pear, olives and tomatoes are fine. I eat some berries (blackberries, blueberries) in my full fat yoghurt once a week or so. I try and stick to 50g of carbs (net) per day, which is around 10% of my daily calorie intake.
Careful with tomatoes,
Make sure to deseeds them and remove skins. They’re high in lectins which can cause inflammation and leaky gut.
List: Low-carbohydrate fruits: Avocado, Berries such as currants, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, gooseberries, Sour cherries, Peaches and apricots, Watermelon, Kiwi, Citrus fruits such as oranges, tangerines, clementines, grapefruits, limes and lemons.
❓️I understand fructose is the _worst_ sugar for the liver ...
That seems to be the case.
I think he says not to worry about what kind you eat because if you're only eating 20g or less of total carbs you aren't overdoing any particular type.
When I began Keto, I went 2 years without consuming most fruits. Then, one day, I had one bite of a banana and it really shocked me how sweet it was. I would never have described bananas as sweet before. Most fruit is just far too sweet for me now.
Thank you.
Now 10 months in ketosis. Only fruits I use are the berries in a Greek yoghurt (10-15% fat) , max once a day but usually every other day. Cheers
@@woutmobiel We like that too.
Bananas have a lot if sugar in them.
Fresh fruits are very healthy, but not good for keto diet.
@@PeCo333it isn’t healthy due to it’s sugar content. Before we hybridised fruit it was much less sweet ie most was sour!
Thanks for your message. You talk in an compassionate and understanding way to us.
I reversed my severe insulin resistance removing all refined sugar from my diet and ate fruit instead. I effortlessly lost 23 kg. Fruit is super healthy. The problem is when too much processed high fructose sugar spills over to the liver. The study from 2018…. The small intestine - a new player in fructose metabolism:
“We were surprised to find that the small intestine metabolizes almost all dietary fructose, especially for modest doses of fructose like those found in fruit,” explains Rabinowitz. Data from the present study show that ∼90% of dietary fructose is converted into glucose and other metabolites, such as lactate and glycerate, by the small intestine before it reaches the liver.
The researchers found that they could overload the metabolizing capacity of the small intestine by feeding mice a high dose of fructose. When the small intestine was saturated with fructose, increased amounts of unmetabolized fructose entered the liver and some even entered the colon, where it fed the microbiota.
The researchers propose that the small intestine shields or protects the liver from fructose toxicity.”
I have very early stage prediabetes - my latest fasting glucose was 102
I want to get that under control and exercise fasting but I do not want to eliminate fruit - I enjoy fruit, it's from the earth, and there are many good nutritional benefits from fruit.
This video is very informative and well-explained. Dr. Eric Westman's advice is invaluable for understanding the impact of fruit on health. Thank you for sharing such useful insights!
Love the way he explain it so easy to understand and get to the point. Good job doctor
I went on a partial keto diet and I have lost 20 pounds and that put me well within the normal BMI range. I did not have diabetes, But my blood glucose it's over a 100 I would like to see it below that. I still avoid starchy vegetables, bread, and other high carb foods. My question is how long should most people have to stay on a strict keto diet? I think once you reach your goal you can ease off a little and enjoy some of the good stuff again like a cookie every so often. do you agree?
"Cravings will go away in one day." Lmao!!! For some people. I remember pacing up and down by the displays so badly wanting a carb fix MONTHS after starting. The cravings ARE less and less over time. And thankfully, my tastes have changed so if I do cave, that "treat" isn't as good as I remember. :) Helps me to abstain the next time which will surely come.
Thank you, great vlog, not overly long with non-md language! Pls consider future topic, @ mile marker 2yrs on Keto/carnivore. WHY am I down my pant size from 42 to 33, YET my belly button tape measurement is static? Legs and arms are becoming alarmingly tiny....
You might be losing muscle and not fat? Eat more eggs?
Just a thought but perhaps you have residual visceral fat (internal fat around your organs), which is quite difficult to get rid of from what I understand. Getting a DEXA scan would be one way to find out if you have visceral fat.
@@grubbetuchus I have a recollection from a distance runner friend who is an MD tell me the body at the end of a long race goes after muscle as a preference; I used to have in my 20s when I had a very small percentage of body fat, so perhaps it just applies to that body composition....
List: Low-carbohydrate fruits:
Avocado.
Berries such as currants, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, gooseberries.
Sour cherries.
Peaches and apricots.
Watermelon.
Kiwi.
Citrus fruits such as oranges, tangerines, clementines, grapefruits, limes and lemons.
From time to time only 😊
Excellent video
Keeping under 20 grams of carbs per day has to be experienced to be believed it's fantastic. If in the future I need to gain weight and go up to 150 grams of carbs would the excessive body fluids return? This was surprisingly the first big benefit of low carb joint pain and general sluggishness gone within a week or so. So my fear now is would the fluid return on 150 grams of carbs per day?
Why in the world would you leave your 20 gram successes with 150? Leave the good feeling of being a fat burner? Knowing what you now know? Water follows sugar and salt.
@@MarkSmith-js2pu My intentions are to keep under 20 grams. Because the weight loss is so fast I'm thinking what if I lose too much? Along with weight loss there are so many other benefits with low carbs. I'll never go back to my old ways of eating. Thanks for the reply.
@@johndevlin5111 it will slow down and level off at some point...
Thanks!
Thank you 👍
Fruit IS good for you. If youre eating low fat then the fruit sugar helps. Avoiding the Randle Cycle and eating in a huge energy excess then of course fat will be storing-as its 98% storable as fat.
You can eat high carb...be active (healthy metabolism & mind and body should be active) then keep fats low and protein moderate or low.
C70-15-15 works well and still lets the body oxidise fat on a high carb diet. Breathing out fat while you exercise. Creating high Insulin Sensitivity. All the lean Asians and Africans who ate non westernised high carb low fat stayed lean due to being metabolically healthy.
I did a gaffaw spit take when you said "...your body is made of protein, pause, not fruit!" Bwahahaha
A piece of fruit a day, is fine once you've reached your desired weight, simple!
Then you get sick because of the oxalates.
What about Gatorade zero
Gatorade Zero has artificial sweetener and that can cause leaky gut syndrome and it's possible that it also causes an insulin response. Any sweetness of taste makes it more difficult to forget that sweet exists, and it tends to increase hunger pangs.
Dr. Westman say as long as it is zero calorie and zero carbs you are go to go...if it causes intestinal distress...dont drink it...drink water, coffee or tea or anything with zero carbs. Get Westmans book "End your carb confusion" you can get it on audible or buy a reg paper book. This book answers ANY question you have about low carb keto...He knows what he is talking about!! Hope this helps in your health journey!!
Nope!
And all the incredible health benefits of most fruits must just be disregarded because there is sugar present. However, the fruit comes with fiber and water, which minimizes the sugar content. It is received and digested differently to what is normally referred to as harmful carbs
if you are lean and can afford to eat 150 grams of carbs a day its fine right?
Perfectly OK if you're metabolically healthy.
When you get cancer you might regret all those carbs.
This does not make sense fruit and veg should be a staple
Without watching.. absolutely body dosnt know the difference sugar is sugar in any form and rotts our teeth ya have an apple in apple season and so on but that's it meat only c Mon man only peasants at fruits,grains, vegetables are we all still peasants I've thought we have grown
You low IQ?
It's % of calories from fat, not percentage of fat vs protein. 100g of fat has 900 calories. 100g of protein has 400 calories.

👍💯🌹
I would never subscribe to a course that says that meat, poultry, fish and eggs are your main source of protein. This shows you know nothing about protein sources and the body's needs. Mother's milk is less than 1% protein and this is for a growing baby. Most vegetables and fruits etc., are between 15% and 20% protein in the superior form of amino acids which are far better source than dead,
embalmed animals full of antibiotics, and many other carcinogens. The tiny amount of training doctors get regarding diet is funded by the meat and poultry indu$tries, etc.
Partner, you need to go look this doctor up. He runs an obesity clinic at Duke. He’s well aware of how food works. He’s single handedly curing diabetes in our great nation to those who are fortunate enough to work with him.
...embalmed?
A general elimination diet that eliminates fruits is a crazy risky diet. Carbofobia.
My friend! Apple only has card?!?! You only can find card in an apple?!
Only a fool trips over something that is behind them.
Stay clear from fruit.
Love this quote! Stealing it forever!! 🙂
Be my guest! ❤️
Thanks dr Westman for keeping things so simple it helps me immensely
I experimented with fruit after I lost 130lbs on keto and hunger came back with a vengeance. Fruit completely disables my satiety. Unfortunately I can't have any :/.
Don't worry, though. Fruit is not needed for a healthy diet.
@@wocket42 I am beginning to believe this!!! I am 60 years old and this last few years going thru changes, almost died from covid AND the stupid injections, anywho... and trying veg juicing for a year, carnivore for over a year and keto on n off for 2 years...coming to conclusion that prescriptive keto ,like Dr. W teaches, works the best for me and my hubs. His book on audible (I just listen to it daily) "End Your Carb Confusion" has been the best, most informative and realistic life change we have made...it works!!!
pomegranate is really a great fruit...
@@wocket42 Not true. Fresh fruits ARE necessary for a healthy nutrition.
@@wocket42Not while you're trying to shed major weight. When you reach your appropriate weight, sure, in moderation!
Thank you Dr. Westman, sadly we have been told for years how healthy fruit is, which hasn’t been helpful.
Fresh fruits ARE healthy, but we cannot eat them when we eat keto diet. I 've been missing them.
Of course fruit is healthy , one separate thing is that you have chosen to be on Keto
You say that fruit is not bad. But what about the fructose? When it can´t be used immediately, it will cause liver fat. Your thoughts, please?
I think you answered your own question.
He did qualify by saying very tiny amounts...1/4 cup if it's within your carb limits.
Eat moderately, just small amount
The nutritional miseducation of the nation is what is killing us. What's good today is bad tomorrow they we get blamed for getting it wrong ugh!!!
My engineering logic tells me that if you are diabetic fructose is bad until cured. Decide to eat fruit again if you want to be diabetic again
I know Dr Westman supports both ketogenic and carnivore diets. Meaning for some patients he works with, they eat some vegetables while maintaining ketosis by limiting the quantity of carbs.
That does not work for me. I can't nibble on lettuce without wanting to eat more lettuce. Next thing I know, I am eating 3 whole heads of lettuce. And I will drift from the lower carb, greener lettuce to the iceberg lettuce or whatever has even the slightest bit more carb.
I eat carnivore, mostly beef but also fish, eggs, and sometimes butter. And I STILL count the carbs. Yes, carbs in carnivore. An egg is half a gram of carb. There are days when I eat 10 eggs, and I count that as 5 grams of carbs. I don't fret much about it, but I keep in mind I want to stay under 10 grams carbs per day. So I won't eat 20 eggs in a day.
Beef liver has carbs in it. About one-percent carbs by weight. So if I eat 200 grams of beef liver, I ate 2 grams of carbs.
And regular beef has carbs in it. A little less than liver, but still in the half-percent to one percent range. And it happens often enough that I eat a kilogram of beef in a day. That's 10 grams of carbs.
So there is no way I am going to add in a minuscule piece of fruit instead of eating beef. Given a choice of a mini-serving of berries, versus a kilogram of beef, I will take the beef every time.
Hmmm. A kilogram of beef. Let's call it 15% fat. I make that 4850 calories. Lettuce is so not your problem.
Your advice is always clear and sensible. The version of keto that you are teaching is simple. Maybe not easy at times, but it is simple. Thank you for all you do Doctor!
Fruit is off the table for me, very addictive. But then so are nuts and cheese.
Wow. I ate all of these foods when I reversed my severe insulin resistance. I just stopped refined sugar. Effortlessly lost 23 kg and felt so much better.
There is nothing wrong with fruit, nuts, and cheese.
To much sugar l
@@ScarlettDuchess what did you define as refined sugar? Breads and pastries? Ice cream and sweets?
Yeah fruit makes me hungry too. It also gives me a little bit of bathroom problems the next morning. I’ve lost almost 3 sizes doin Carnivore and I am healing much more than just a few things I’ve got to say. It’s several
Since 2007 I have considered fruit natures candy because of how sweet it can be.
If fruit does trigger more sweet cravings, I consider a serving of fruit like the amount you get when you to a breakfast place. With your meal you get a slice of orange and 3 small cubes of another fruit. That’s it.
Many of us can't moderate fruit like t hat. If I eat a slice of orange or 3 small cubes of some other fruit in 30 minutes I'll be craving more, and will likely cave in. Every time I've tried to have a small bit of fruit it has sent me off the rails for at least two weeks.
@@HappilyCarnivore very true. My comment on portion only works if you are a moderator.
sad but true. i remember Dr Peter Attia once saying he hadn't eaten a banana in 7 years. I used 2 have 1 nearly every day--1/2 really per the nutritionist in cereal or oatmeal🤣🤣. oh well..haven't had a banana in year & 1/2. good for blood sugar, but hasn't assisted with weight loss. 1/2 peach or apple okay by me. better than artificial sugar i think. Think it was the late, great Greg Allman who said Eat a Peach😉 Tough to pass them by in Costco tonite but better not to buy I guess tho season is very short really
I eat some berries and half an apple a day.
@@PeCo333 yeah, healthier than artificial sweets..has fiber, minerals & nutrients. better bet as far as I can tell. Best luck!
@@mariad1151 Yes! Best wishes to you!
I sometimes have 2 or 3 strawberries on my breakfast plate with my eggs and bacon or sausage. I eat green leafy vegetables at dinner and I try to fast 16 hours. I am losing weight at a good rate--70 lbs in all and my blood sugar is usually around 6mmols.
Wouldn't it be easier to talk in weights? Cups mean nothing to me.
I have Parkinson’s they say strawberry and bananas help
Dr. Westman your method measuring is just like my great grandmothers when she made her own homemade bread. She never used measuring cups. When she showed me how to make her homemade bread she just take handfuls and say about this much and about that much. Maybe I'm a bit anal-retentive when come to getting it right.
But to tell me an apple is this much or that much is not very helpful since any fruit comes in different sizes.
Thank you Dr. Westman. I recently bought your book - End Your Carb Confusion - and it is the best food that I have found that explains low carb/keto healthy eating plans and presents the 3 phases of carb intake. I refer to it frequently. Thank you for all that you do to keep us healthy !!!
Thank you for releasing this video it answered the questions I had after listening to the last post😅🖖🖖🖖🖖👍👍👍👍🍀🌟🍀🙋🏼♀️
🚫 = 🍇🍊🍒
What I would really like to see Dr Westman upload here is a meal plan (general guide), and forgive me if he has uploaded it already but I've been unable to find it. Because he says his version of keto is better than Internet keto, it would really be beneficial to use.
He says nobody wanted it when it was free, so he sells it for 5 dollars on one of his pages.
Will you guys go back to having Adapt Your Life events? Would love to attend
Thanks Doc. 👍
Awesome to listen to and witty at the same time. Thanks real Doc
Thank you Dr Westman you made keto diet easy and you made me understand I like you ❤
Always on target
Your awesome…. Love your videos !
How about cheese
if ya can get Dr. Westmans book "End your carb confusion"...it will truly do this for you.I have read at least 20 book son health, fitness n so forth. This is my fave book by far!! I got it on audible so I can listen to it whenever I am driving to remind me of my daily food choices helping me to feel great and be energetic in my 60's!!
@@lilpoohbear653 What does that have to do with the cheese question?
I have question . I am a female and have lost 35 lbs since starting keto/low carb. I love it . It is definitely sustainable for me But for some reason since starting Keto my blood pressure has gone up . I have alway had perfect blood pressure even when I was 50 lbs overweight . At 60 years and younger I had blood pressure around 115/68. My 88 year old mother has this range too. But having lost 35 lbs and at a weight of 145 and height of 5’7 my bp has stayed around 145 or 150 over 80 to 90. I will say that my Keto is dirty Keto but I have maintained that weight for almost a year . I have started exercise and have been doing so for over 2 months but no change in bp .I will not go on medication . The doctor I saw said nothing in regards to bp . Do you have any suggestions?
Do you know how many grams of omega 6 fatty acids (LA, etc) you are eating? Do you use any oils, lots of nuts? Even though this is "Internet keto" territory, try to limit omega 6 consumption to 2-4g per day.
You need to eat some fruit. Carbs are essential. Insulin spikes are necessary. My sex drives goes away without carbs. When I add them back in I'm good to go. With carbs you have to be active and avoid preservatives, seed oils and fillers.
Just my opinion but you said you are “dirty keto”. Perhaps if you are eating a lot of packaged keto snacks or artificial sweeteners that could be doing you wrong. Maybe time to look at a whole foods low carb lifestyle if you have concerns about blood pressure. Another thought is stress/anxiety in your life will definitely affect bp. All the best ❤
Your BP is ok!!!
My wife has the same problem. BP is high since starting low carb.
Remember nothing is forever you can do anything for a few months. This is a lifestyle change not a life sentence. Once you reach a goal you can let yourself have a little something. Don't think of it as a cheat, if you do then your mind thinks this is a diet.
Iv'e been on keto for 1 year and stayed within 30g of carbs and I used the ketones blower (and it's worth what it worth I guess) and I'm seeing the keto dietetian soon, but my sister was on carnivores for 1 year and she saw her keto/carnivore doctor and he told her that her ketosis was way out of wack her insulin, glucose, A1C was 11, 11 for somebody who doesn't even touch carbs at all. He told her that she needs to add some carb in her diet WHAT. Yes I guess everybody is different and your body reacts differently I guess. She doesn't eat veggies her body reacts violently but me I can. My weight was all over the place playing yoyo up and down and I re-add a bit of carbs or I should say a bit more because I was between 20 and 30 and my weight stop yoyozing. My sister was blowing a 60 plus on the ketone meter on a daily basis, I was blowing 50 plus and I manage to bring it down within a normal range (before; I was revolving around 28 during 1 year than went up into the 50's). My sister is having a hell of a time to bring it down into a normal ketone range and she is still blowing in the high 40 even if she added some fruits as per her doctor's suggestion. In a nutshell you have to go with what your body is telling you and as far as loosing weight I guess this is also hit an miss until you get into the right combination.
Dr Westman: you say if doing “prescription strength ” keto.
Very few are likely to have been “prescribed” keto from their doctor. Most are likely trying to do keto the fad diet.
DOCTOR, AT 76 I NOW HAVE VARICOSE VEINS, MOSTLY THE LEGS. I READ FLAVONOIDS ARE AN IMPORTANT NUTRIET TO FIGHT IT, OR STRENGTHEN THE VEIN WALLS. BUT I ALSO READ FLAVONOUDS ARE IN FRUIT. I GAVE BEEN ON A KETO/CARNIVORE DIET FOR THREE YEARS. I HAVE HAS LITTLE FRUIT IN THAT TIME. DOCTOR (OR SOMEONE) CAN YOU COMMENT?
I agree that the sugar in fruit counts in keto, but I originally went on the ketogenic diet because it helped me control narcolepsy. Curiously, the carbs in fruit don't seem to have the effect on the problem that other types of sugars have. Why? All I know is the carbs in fruits are monosaccharides, and the carbs in most other foods are disaccharides and polysaccharides . It is true though that I can control weight better if I stay away from fruit too, so I usually do. Dextrose is a sugar that is a monosaccharide.
Fruit sets my sugars off like nothing else, 5 strawberries are enough to get it around 13.5 😅 so we just don't have it no more
What about an orange if you squeeze most of the juice out? The carbs are in the juice is in it?
I can't speak for y'all but it's bad for me.
Fiber in fruit will lessen the absorption of fructose doc🙄
Grains are off limits in the beginning.
I feel really sick on keto true not hungry
Thank you doctor
So the creator placed all these fruits in existence for animals only? If a body is in optimal condition, fruit is toxic?
Unfortunately most of the fruits God gave us has been genetically modified to be much much sweeter than God ever intended.
The availability of fruit all year around can be attributed to the modern food distribution methods and not something God put in place :) Every now and then when it's In season is not too bad *_if you are healthy_* , having it every day when it's 10F and snow-covered outside isn't God's work.
Most modern fruits are heavily hybridized, so that they contain a great deal more fructose. E.g. Original/traditional bananas had seeds and were low in sugar, modern varieties are just candy in disguise - never consume them. Best to limit to original traditional fruits if you can find them, and/or the low sugar fruits such as Avocado, blackberry and blueberry. Perhaps strawberry but it's the highest pesticide exposed mass produced fruit, best avoided completely unless home grown. Avocado is very low sugar and also high fat so eat as much as you desire no limit.
Also; Eat only when in season locally. God designed various food supplies for humanity throughout the different climate regions of the planet. So different diets that match local climate growing conditions can be very healthy and nutritious if they're not mass produced (which uses chemical fertilizers and pesticides - so they're contaminated and also low in nutrients). Of course mixing them all up by shipping them around the planet is an extremely foolish thing to do, and so to is ignoring their toxin contamination..
A significant danger with all the western mass produced "foods" is the contamination with glyphosate. There's so much contaminating the western food supply that everyone's blood will test positive for it's presence. It effectively kills bacteria so that it kills off your microbiome, which is a big problem. The gut microbiome is responsible for up to 70% of all you nutrient absorption. Killing it off with toxins or antibiotics will dramatically reduce your overall health (to below 50% of full health). Note that GMO products have been specifically engineered to be glyphosate tolerant, meaning that they're guaranteed to be contaminated. Never ever consume GMO products. Cheers.
Thank you Rose. Great insight.
Appreciate that tech. I will take note.
The key sentence here is.... If you want to loose weight......or reverse diabetes.....
You can do low carb and intermittent fasting and lose weight. I regularly eat 20-50 carbs and losing weight nicely. 19 pounds in 6 weeks. A1c went from 5.7 to 5.2% in the same 6 weeks.
I was looking for a change in diet I plan to have the rest of my life...
...I know some people do Keto or carnivore life long, and maybe I will someday, but this works, and I feel no difficulty.
Fruit is my weakness. Love my berries.
Me too!
Me too, including bananas!
I eat approx 600g carbs a day (hardly been running lately either) Holding 91kg. When i ate high fat high carb i was 107kg. Carbs dont make you fat. Excess fat with carbs makes you fat. Energy surplus of mixed macros (high fat high carb) = fat storage. Cheers
Fat burn or sugar/card burn. The humans choice…. Pick one and see how it goes. For most, there’s only one real answer.
There is a man on here who was Carnivore for 2 years who left to now add lots of fruit and other healthy product He after some issues on Carnivore like Electrolights
Paul Saladino?
Thank you doctor
I dont eat or drink sugary foods even bread but i ate a lot of fruits😢 now i have auto immune psoriasis bcoz of sugar in fruits😢
What
What the heck??? No fruit it has all the benefits for health always in moderation
You forget they test isolated nutrients not the fruit as a whole. But i agree ,in moderation ,sadly that mean like having one banana spread to 3-4 days. You have to remember today fruits are nothing like wild fruit. Like wild strawberries are big as a coffee bean and not sweet at all. Mostly sour with a hint of sweet aftertaste. Or raspberry, in wild they are smaller then a pea, and you guest it mostly sour.
Geez no fruit.
Yes
I’ll save you all the trouble. “Yes”. Sugar in fruit is sugar in a snicker bar. Same same. Love you long time. Cheers
Incorrect. That's not what he's saying at all. If you eat 100 Snickers you'll have a nice case of Diabetes. If you eat 100 blueberries you'll be healthy and full of energy.
Snickers has high fructose corn syrup...not the same as fructose in fruit😌
What about people who eat raw and eat tons of fruit and vegetables and swear by it? I’ve tried telling my family member that sugar is sugar no matter where it comes from!
And its even worse since starch is just more complex sugar.
All vegans work just on carbs and are lean because vegetables are mostly water and undigestible fiber. So basically they eat carboard soaked in sugar water. And because they eat almost no protein at all they hardly gain or sustain any muscle mass.
It’s worse for sure. They are accelerating the sugars entry into the bloodstream and pausing the fat burn longer due to more quantity of fruits…
Out in 2024
1. Keto and low carb
2. Intermittent fasting
3. Feeding window. We are not animals
4. Trying to eat like our ancestors. We have evolved and they died out
5. Fat adapted
7. Cold plunge
8. Any talk of insulin resistance
9. Fasted workouts. That will deplete muscle mass
In for 2024
1. Balanced diet. 60% carbs, 25% protein 15% fats
Keto is for fat people
Out in 2024
1. Logic
2. Your 4th point is fallacious and made zero sense in the context of this conversation.
Agree. This doctor is out here arrogantly saying that fruit is bad. The fuck is he talking about..
@@bluepandamanI’ve been following his advice for four months now. He’s changed my health for the better. Thankful for this excited physician.
My friend was hospitalised with chronic constipation from keto diet
Keto diet cleared up my bowel issues. Weird.
Great advice! Been carnivore for 4 mos. No fruits. Introduced 4 bananas a day. My losing weight has declined which is good as i do not want to be thinner now. It also made me sleep like a baby and the i suppose the testerone goes up, judging from experience. So maybe just maybe paul saladino is right, that carnivore with a little of fruit would help in its entirety.
I look forward to trying just a bit of fruit once I reach my goals from dr westman. So far, he’s been spot on with his strategies for me. The weight and health benefits have been great but I’ll need to stop losing weight shortly.
