I’m on a slippery slope of “Dr Lustig” addiction! I just found and started with his first video and have his watched over 10 in a few days. I listen while I walk in the morning.. can’t get enough of his dynamic messages. His knowledge is incredible.. My wish is people who hear him will change and start a ground swell of “I’m mad as hell and not gonna take it anymore”. Please, Dr Lustig-KEEP TALKING!!! You are a massive gift to this country. Thank you so much for this humorous and wonderful video. So grateful -changed my life for sure.
Dr. Lustig, what an amazing human being in all his facets. Watched all his interviews that I could find. This interview is particularly special. I am taking away many pearls of his wisdom. Thank you thank you for this interview.
I appreciate Dr. Lustig, because not only is he a doctor but he is a teacher and I think that's why his RU-vid video has gotten 13 million hits. He details how the body works and I think the public is eager to learn and hungry for information. Dr. Lustig please keep on teaching.
I'm _so_ fortunate! I do bird photography and at age 65 walking around over rough uneven ground was getting a bit much for me. I weighed 83kg. I started looking for videos that would improve my health and help me lose weight. This morning I weighed in at 76.5kg - the lowest I've been for about ten years. I'm aiming, at 5'3", for 63kg. I've checked sugar, processed food and bread and I've upped my salads and veggies. I make and drink my own Kefir. I take Cod Liver Oil. I make my own skin care cream and, when I _do_ eat bread I make ny own Sourdough. My sleep patterns have improved. My skin looks better. I feel less nervous and calmer, happier. And, the original goal - I am enjoying my Bird Photography more than ever. In short, my quality of life has _vastly_ improved.
Well done you! I only came across Robert Lustig about a week ago and you know when something just clicks? I immediately started the journey and I am losing 1 pound every 1 to 2 days. Unbelievable.
Beautiful! How humble this doctor is to speak of his own experience. Keep focussing on the future, you can never appreciate what you have today. :) Only a wise man who has gone through life experiences can say that. 🙏
حقيقة، إن هذا الرجل روبرت لوستيج ذو فهم عميق، واسمحوا لي أن أذكر أننا نحن المسلمين نقول ( السعادة هي طرد الهم) إنني متفاجئ لأنه يوافق هرمون السيروتونين. طبعا ، لقد سمعت شرحا آخر لهذا الرجل، بل سمعت ساعات كثيرة رغم ضعف الإنجليزية لدي. شكرا له، ولصاحب القناة.
English Translation: In fact, this man, Robert Lustig, has a deep understanding, Allow me to mention that we Muslims say (happiness is the expulsion of worry). I'm surprised because it agrees with serotonin. Of course, I heard another explanation from this man, and I even listened for many hours, despite my poor English. Thanks to him, and to the owner of the channel. Reply: مرحبًا بك للغاية، ويسعدنا جدًا أننا تمكنا من تقديم بعض الأفكار لك. أشكركم على تعليقاتكم. You are very welcome and we are very pleased that we were able to provide you some insight. Thank you for your comments.
Great video. Love your talking points. - But when listening to you talking about marketing vs propaganda in the medical industry, i can't but help but wonder what makes a doctor, who have taken the "Hippocratic Oath" to then push drugs like Statins on their patients ? To me it reeks of a conflict of interest, or some such... ?
Let's not forget that most people can listen to an argument and make up their own minds based on the evidence they see, the persuasiveness of the expert and lived experience. Quite often you get to lived experience which often is negative and realise you ignored the evidence or the expert or both, then try to rectify the problem. The sooner you arrive at the right answer the better for your health. Dr Lustig has great advice, wish I had known about this message 20 years ago, but even 2 years of not poisoning myself anymore is beneficial
Like the thoughts on cooking. Best I’ve ever heard was from director Robert Rodriguez …. Not knowing how to cook is like not knowing how to f**k. He had a few 10 min cooking shows that can still be found on RU-vid.
24million views, at the moment. Respect. btw at 12:14, Rob made a little mistake: quote " the more pleasure you seek, the higher your serotonin rises, the more unhappy you get" here is the mistake: not serotonin but dopamine. (sry 'bout my bad English)
Thanks Én. We did notice but knew our audience would forgive the slip of the tongue. We hope that this will get to 24 million at the moment it's at 30,000 which is also very good. Thanks for watching and commenting. We have a lot more wisdom to share with all our videos. Make sure you subscribe. We just published out 100th episode. It is full of great lessons.
What a simple yet brilliant explanation as to why it takes 30 years for major changes in society. It's the new generations of kids who change the societies thinking, because basically people don't change.... they just die or become irrelevant. Can be applied to most major things that have happened... good and bad
This great thinker is in conjunction with the man who wrote Finntopia... That these are generational issues, we have to work on them for our grandchildren.
Please pass this question to Dr. Lustig I've asked this question to several experts but none has been able to answer satisfactorily. My grandma (died in 2018 at 100), my mother 75 at present, my three sisters in 50s, my half a dozen aunts in their 70's and 80's.. all of them consume literally tonnes of sugar as if sugar is the only food on earth, yet they are all generally healthy. Besides sugar they also consume processed and ultra processed foods as a daily routine without any hesitation. None of them have any signs of metabolic syndrome or any other major health issues. Why?
Hello Kuldeep. While we will pass on all comments to Dr Lustig this interview was to seek his lessons of wisdom for our audience. We are not promoting any medical advice as we are not qualified to do that. If Dr Lustig has a response we will publish it in this reply for you. We are glad that you enjoyed the show.
1. They all could have lived to be much older if they were on a reduced sugar diet. 2. A consultant I spoke to said Genetics is the big unknown. Some people can get away with a high sugar diet.
@@kevinc9194 I think your reply makes a lot of sense to me. The science of genetics is not very clear to the scientific community and much more has to be known yet. The Golden rule I've understood about diet is that eat what God has made in it's original format, do not eat if something is altered by humans or machines.
Simone's Maxims is a great reference and available for free download on Cancer History Project by Simone's family. Great interview here, statin comment was surprising.
Awesome information, Thank you. Update 10/2022 Dr. Lustig's video on Sugar the Bitter Truth, currently has 22 M views, hopefully 8 billion on the planet will all get to hear!
A great and brilliant interview. Many thanks! Respect Dr. Lustig for his courage and professional consciousness. God knows what Dr. Lustig has been doing.
what a great source of health and mind education. you have to become your own doctor when health problems arise -- and they probably will with age. i think my addiction is to these incredible podcasts and how to overcome the bs out there from your "experts and gurus". my one question is there a better way to metabolize what you eat ??
I hope Dr. Lustig a humble genius as genius's usually are, reads my thanks to him. Even my sugar head teenage son understands the logic of this long standing problem and as Dr. Lustig said, that's the beginning of change. Our journey has just begun. A little late for me with a fatty liver but let's raise a glass (just one a day!) to my offsprings (and hopefully everyone else's) long health! Fingers crossed and thankyou Robert Lustig 🤞
Hi Superfreak- hope you have reversed the fatty liver and diabetes. Type 2 diabetes can be reversed also, if it is long standing you may not get complete reversal but you can get MUCH better if you cut added sugars and refined carbs. Basically you should eliminate all ultraprocessed food because a recent study showed with every 10% increase in ultraprocessed foods there is a 14,% increase in death
thank you Robert. this class must be taught at schools as a requirement; instead of racial BS. thank you all of the doctors who share their knowledge and experiences with the public.
