In 1972, when British scientist John Yudkin first proved that sugar was bad for our health, he was ignored by the majority of the medical profession and rubbished by the food industry. We should have heeded his warning.

1:17:01 - Some time ago I read two tips for healthy eating: 1.) Eat only foods that spoil, and 2.) Eat them before they spoil.

im a big addict, i quit smoking 4 years ago after a 30 year battle, i limited grain intake 3 months ago, im still struggling with alcohol abuse for 30 years, but eversince i limited carbs and just stick to whole foods, im feeling good but i must stop this deadly alcohol abuse which i dont have a handle so far.

We all know what sugar does to our teeth but it's horrible knowing what it does to the rest of our bodies and now our minds. Thank you so much.

You cant buy happiness but you can buy pleasure. And there in a sentence is the major problem with our world.

Am a huge fan of Dr Lustig. He is fascinating to listen to. He makes so much sense...good show👍

I am 68. Life has been good but could have been much better with the wisdom/knowledge of Dr. Lustig.

A big fun of Dr. Robert Lustig. I am a licensed Nutritionist Dietician and learned so much more from watching youtube and podcasts. Thank you for having him here❤️

Dr. Robert is an amazing human. I feer the current generation of young doctors are not made like him anymore. We need more brave and daring people like Dr. Robert

Wow, how much an (educated), intelligent, honest voice can reveal!

I value Dr Lustig courage to voice out the issue in our health system.

Dr Lustig is my hero

Stunningly thoughtful and well-informed thoughts from Robert Lustig. Robert is an intellectual superstar. A good listen! Next the book.

DR. ROBERT LUSTIG IS A WISE MAN, IF I HAVE EVER HEARD ONE SPEAK TRUTH.

The amount of intelligence in this is amazing, I need to save this and watch it again, so much to take in here! Thank You

Makes you wonder what the world will be like when the baby boomers are gone...there will be no one who remembers a simpler time. Excellent interview.

Dr. LUSTIG is my hero. If there is any reason whatsoever to respect U.S. scientific community, Dr Lustig is that reason

Listening while fasting for 48 hour's 👍🏾 I'm in this new schedule since 60 days regularly without any breaks.

Every time I hear a lecture from, or an interview, with Dr Lustig I learn a lot. Incredibly interesting, well done!

The fact that people are watching music videos in the hundreds of millions and billions while this Doctor's videos are getting tens of thousands of views shows how misled the public is. Make lady gaga sing Dr. Lustig's message of TRUTH and we will solve our problems practically overnight.

Thank you Dr. Lustig! Your video Sugar the Bitter Truth helped me be determined to quit sugar. Now sugar is like poison to me. I am really glad I am totally over it.

Guys. Genius. I discovered you by chance. So glad I did

It's not just about physical health. It's about save the generations to come. Dr. Robert Lustig is really a modern Copernicus.

Nobel prize ….

Dr. Lustig is such a world of knowledge and very intelligent. Love his videos. And his interviewer is very knowledgeable too. This is a delight. Thank you.

"Pleasures are like poppies spread You seize the flower, the bloom is shed Or like the snowfall on the river A moment white, then gone forever..." (Robert Burns)

Eventual pain occurs when we trade what we want most for what we want at the moment. [Happiness vs. pleasure]

I have so much respect for Dr Lustig and know from personal experience he speaks the truth. Vicki

Feed the gut..+ ...protect the liver Grateful for this rule . I hope we follow 🐥🐥

The incredible Dr Robert Lustig, I learned a lot in a very short time, learning health, you also learn the world behind, truly a golden man.

This was just fantastic. Thank you both of you

Thank you Dr.Lustig from my heart. Your help is huge,God bless You!

A great delight to listen to a very wise man.

"Exercise your pre-frontal cortex. Read a friggin' book." is about the bast damn quote I've heard that I can use in the last few years. It's just sooo. "Dia-Metabolical" '-)

Wow! This man is amazing. I listened to this months ago, but it's still a revelation 2nd time around. Thank you for an amazing interview

Dopamine vs Seritonin Wow that lesson is huge!!! It explains my whole life.

That interview was amazing! The talk about Serotonin and Dopamine was explained so well, as were all the subjects discussed. Thank you!

explosively enlightening! Dr Robert Lusting nailed it!

Excellent interview, great questions, thank you. Dr Lustig has a wonderful voice.❤️

Super informative podcast, excited to hear more!

Thst was so informative and interesting, thanks!

Inspiring knowledge!

Got 2 of his books. What a great man and Dr!!

Dr Lustig is a genius!!

What a talk! Great men! Thank you!

This information needs desperately told in Appalachian areas!!

Great wonderful words

fantastic interviewer.

I'm irresistibly addicted to Dr Lustig's videos! Is there a treatment, symtomatic or causative?

Brilliant !

Love your work, thank you from Norway 🙏👑🇳🇴

Hi Greg, understand how you feel. With so many children, for my wife and I, it is our no.1 priority to ensure they ALL have a positive effect on our small planet.

Dr. Lustig is God sent for us, our saviour that opened our eyes We are literally ingesting poison (fructose) on a daily basis (I don't anymore since I found his video).

You done the best explanation of regligious happiness connection to serotonin and eye connection

so wise, God sent

Being a victim of modern society habits, I ve started my own battle against metabolic sindrome three or four years ago. After winning first few battles I realised that I had two allies: keto or low carb on one side and vegan diet on the other, so I was perplexed and confused because they were very opposed one to another! All other things aside, great Prof Lustig explains why they both work and why they shouldnt be confronted!!! Great insight for all of you who are into low carb or who are vegans!!! And "other" things, he is talking about here, are very, very important as well...Thank you very very much Prof Lustig!!!

now i understand, thank you.

The book is metabolical, and I am listening to it while swimming

"Read a friggin' book" - buy this one!

Phenomenal thinking, and what an absolute Godsend, to be able to understand the biological and chemical linkage, between true and transient success and our fundamental human experience. Amazing. Amazing knowldedge. Dr Robert Lustig is a great thinker of our time. Glad I heard this.

This guy is really going to save me he's going to save my life my liver

Fantastic guy super intelligent uses his gifts to help and educate others i have two of his books and one is signed in person as i have had the honour of meeting him in person in London at a co ference on sugar. Yudkin son was there too to represent his father. Thank u Prof Lustig 🙏🏼💙

GENIUS GENIUS YOU ARE A TRUE GENIUS

Dr Lustig, respetuoso saludo, le escribo en español, para darle a conocer una inquietud, veo muy pertinente para la divulgación de su acertada cruzada, la subtitulación desde el origen de todas sus intervenciones, incluso profecionales de la salud, se alejan de esta valiosa información por no tener la comodidad de leerlo en su idioma materno, con mi admiración y agradecimiento y con la camiseta de su equipo, puesta y sudada, de usted, Carlos Arturo Valencia Uribe, médico y cirujano de la universidad de Antioquia, Colombia

Money can't buy you love but it helps you look in a lot more places.

Also healthy grassland which only can be made by grassfed animals has the capacity to absorb up to 65 times the methane that the animals it can support.

Your first book Robert, stopped me from eating all carbs except green vegies. This interview is amazing.

I'll tell you made a lot of friends with the food industry laughing out loud bad as I hate to say so I'm going to have to give up sugar myself

"read a friggin book" life lesson #1

1:10:10 And this is why rotational planned grazing is fantastic. It stops the need for chemical fertilizers, the need for grains (or transporting them), the need for antibiotics/other chemicals, rebuilds the soils/soil life (which puts carbon (organic matter) BACK into the soils, and with good grass genetics and proper finishing makes great beef/lamb/mutton, etc. This makes top-level products fetching top-dollar which helps the Farmer make a better world for him/herself and you and me.

Activities to reduce dopamine and increase serotonin: Eat real food (food out of the ground and animals that ate what came out of the ground) Take time for yourself e.g. meditation; yoga; read a book (exercise the prefrontal cortex) Doing for others/create community

Dr Lustig was my eye opener to the true meaning of science and health. I am a medical technologist and what I learned from school is different from what is true. God really gave us perfect body and perfect environment but people really want to destroy it just because of money.

I watched the whole thing and, it gave me great pleasure to do so (dopamine). Utilizing this information, and my sharing of it, will provide a modicum of happiness (serotonin).

I'd love to walk into a grocery store and put on a pair of glasses that light up only 2 things -- foods that will protect my liver and foods that feed the gut. OH and, I wouldn't mind a third --carb to fiber foods that are 5 to 1. Dr. Justig has converted me...and I'm doing so well really paying attention to this but it would be so interesting to see where the light goes on with these 'magic glasses' in a grocery store.

I got loss on sleep depivation and dopamine. Someone please explain what was meant by the list of 5 things.

Now... on vegetarianism.... and I'll speak only for myself here: I have been a true vegetarian all my life. My omnivorous parents never managed to convert me, no matter how hard they tried. I won. They ate meat, me, just the fruit and veggies, please! And it has stayed this way for soon 70 years. I am healthy, 100%. Never had a doctor in my life, except for a broken wrist because of roller skating too hard, and for some car accident or other. Can you imagine somebody who does not even have a generalist doctor? Who takes zero medicine? Who only sleeps for 5 hours a night, tightly and happily, and is full of energy all day long? That describes me. Yes, besides my vegetarian life style, I am also a long-time meditator, do it every day, and I even coach/teach it to people who want to learn. I am a yogi, a sufi, a philosopher and I burn with life's passion for many things. My life is full of rewarding relationships and activities, too! Too good to be true, eh? Ask people who know me, they'll confirm it! Back to my diet. I would like to see how a meat eater would deal with a raw chunk of meat, no tools, just his hands and mouth. Good luck with that! I on the other hand, never had a problem eating with the help of just my hands and teeth. It's natural. I have no canine/feline dentition. My molars were meant to grind and chew food, not cut it. My digestive system is set up for long digestion to break down fibrous foods. Unlike the animals who eat other animals. Their digestion is comparatively short. There is a reason for that. I don't want to bore everyone as to what that might be... google it or buy a book! Anyhow, vegetarians, if any, inflict the least ecological load on Mother Earth, provided they either grow food themselves, like me, or buy organically grown fruit and veggies. And yes, I cook every day, I preserve food stuff, I eat only entire food items, things I can identify and which do not come in a pretty box (which tells them to just nuke it and eat!). This is a good way for a healthy life style. Sure, not drinking alcohol may seem like a drag to many, but I never missed it. The same goes for cigarettes, to which I was once addicted for several years, in my twenties. I fought my way out of that one! So, the choices we make lead to the type of life we lead, it is our decision. Nobody can tell us what to do. We have free will, can do whatever we want, and we also have to endure and accept the consequences of the choices we make. Those two things go together, even though most of us try very hard to have the first and get away from the second.

Love story of Raisin Bran my son loves them .

Excellent ! 😁✌️👍🇬🇧🙏

Hacking of the Global Mind! Dr R Lustig is a combination of Intelligence, Compassion and Courage, a perfect healer for our broken-down Sick-care system! Interviewer asked a lot of good questions too; Brits are always deeper in thinking?! :-)

Massive informations from a great scientist big thx to u guys

This totally explains why the creation of social media has only accelerated Humanities psychological dysfunction.

"Taking your prefrontal cortex offline". Well, if that's his new book's title, I'll buy it.

Truth

The 4 C's are a brilliantly simple way of oversimplifying life, as a whole. Had this guy not been a doctor, he would be a priest or a rabbi or a LIFESTYLE COACH. Hats off Doc. 🙏🏻 And lest I forget while being overwhelmed by the sheet simplicity of your approach and words - THANK YOU 🙏

Is tolerance and resistance synonymes in terms of hormones/neurotransmitters working?

People at least need a wage that lets them live a life of dignity. Instead of feeling like they need to work three jobs

ths dr robert you are amazing.. excellent by all means

Are all fruits ok? Even watermelon and melon? Arent they very high in sugar? Or does the fiber within them counters the high sugar?

So is there any relationship between consumption of high dopamine stimulating substances eg coffee and sugar, and later in life having Parkinson's??

Me personally I never could do anything in moderation almost when I first got introduced to horse racing it was like a rush and a half to see your horse win turn the cards around it was like a just a down and out to see your horse lose

I listen to Robert Lustig... he's balanced. He's not a scammer like the Low Carb, Keto, Carnivore, Low Fat shill "dieticians". He didn't sell out. Even though "Low Carb Down Under" invites him to talk sometimes, he doesn't espouse a low Carb diet. He's more of a Cut Sugar, Cut Refined Carbs, Eat Diverse Whole unprocessed foods kind of guy.

Fantastic episode! @ ~1:16:00 - Dr Lustig pointed out that screen time stymies imagination and creativity. I disagree a bit. It is possible to use digital media/screen time to inspire creativity, imagination, and learn amazing things. I have learned SO much from podcasts like this one and childrens resources too. Resources that are fortunately accessible via digital media.

I'm 61 years old most of my finding is people rely on kilic rapping about their health until they're about ready to lose it or until it's too late

The goat

I wondered how long it would take for the guy interviewing Dr Lustig to have to be corrected about the fructose in fruit! Lustig has no problems with the consumption of unrefined carbs, nor fruit, yet they still keep plugging away at it.

1:17:05 The Essence...

Agreat dr who ring the bell to warn us..i hope every body hear this great dr.4 Cs Conect..meditate Contribute outside your self ...throgh your work to help the others. Cope ..sleep /mindfulness/exercise (Mobile sleep depriver ..stop using screens.) *mind fulness..unitask not multitasking COOK....(vegetable/omega 3/ low froctos food) Thank you dr...

He's wrong about tryptophan. It's not at all in short supply. Most people automatically get about 1000mg in their diet and we only need about 4mg per kg of body weight. And eggs are _not_ the best source of tryptophan - turkey is, as well as milk, cheese and steak.

We eat too much overall...portions today are huge compared to what was normal when I grew up in the 50's.
