WHY Sugar is as Bad as Alcohol (Fructose, The Liver Toxin) 

i almost don't consume sugar but now i'm going to consume even less

Watching this while eating SNICKERS

I’ve watched most of your videos the last few months, but today I started rewatching them and noticed your recent comment. I’ve quit sugar & processed foods, switched to a high fat diet and have been fasting daily for the last months; never felt healthier. It’s still particularly interesting to watch your videos again as there is lots of useful information that can be very useful for many people. Thank you for all the research you’re doing and especially for sharing your findings!

I read this comment with your voice in my head

Bravo! :)

Mitochondria is the Powerhouse of the Cell

-emia means presence in blood

Gotcha

Yeah..

It literally is. You will go thru withdrawal syndrome just like addicts giving up drugs.

Just view eating bread or any carb as no different than eating a jelly donut and it will be much easier to overcome the urge to eat food that turns into sugar in the body.

6 months carnivor! Lets do this! :)

I’m doing it even though I love sweets. It ain’t easy and I’m not going to lie; I still have them once in a while but nothing like I used to. Give me strength, Universe!

Exactly what I did and felt

@Demscout I went from about 90 kgs to 77 since then. I try not to eat anything with more than 15% sugar unless its fruit.

@SandboxArrow it’s not about completely avoiding sugar, it’s about avoiding added sugar. You can’t possibly tell me that we can’t live without that, since that’s what life used to be like for millennia, in the absence of excessive added sugar

@@activechaos128 you lost 13 kg in 4 months?

@@Piccoclolo yes, just about 13kgs. Over the winter I've put some back. I'm now at about 80kgs. I haven't been as disciplined as I'd like to be over the last 3 months but I'm getting back on track now. I had not only eliminated sugar but was also eating spinach salads, meat/veg meals and fasting 18 hours in between. I also went jogging 1-2 times a week for 30-60 mins (5-10 kms). One other thing I did was water fasting. When I dropped to only eating 1 meal per day and because I would eat that meal in the evening one night I went to sleep without eating and when I woke up I continued my day like I normally had without eating. I was shocked because even though I hadn't eaten in over 36 hours I wasn't feeling hungry. It was more a feeling that there was something that I forgot to do. I then pushed it to the next day once again going to bed without eating. I then ate around 1200 the next day ending my 60 hour fast. I think I dropped 2 kgs in that time. I made sure to stay hydrated and I also take a multivitamin which keeps my b vitamin levels up. I definitely recommend doing a 48-72 hour fast every so often. Its not as hard as you would think and the benefits are amazing. Breaking your sugar addiction is key to controlling appetite. Once I did that I realized that before I would tell myself "I'm hungry" and then gravitate towards foods with sugar or that rapidly convert to sugar with little to no nutritional value. In nature foods that contain sugar often contain nutrients so our body falsly associates them so if you have vitamin or mineral deficiencies, which most of us do, you will crave foods with high sugar.

This will never happen

Sugar has been eaten as a food for thousands of years by even lower class citizens. No way something like that will ever happen.

@@sinkmagg0t Smoking tobacco has been done for hundreds of years, but once we learned of the health effects, we reduced smoking. It is not uncommon to see pictures from the early 1900s where children are smoking cigarettes - today we view this as outrageous, but it was just the culture back then. 100 years from now, as our understanding of health will have developed, we will likely find the idea of feeding children candy just as outrageous.

@@badmittens5160 Ok then stop it now :). i'm trying since two month and it's impossible to stop completely

maybe try fruits instead of sweets? every time you want something sugar packed just grab a apple, a cup of berries or an orange. thats how i started and ive been sugar free for over one and a half year. also reading about the health benefits of the stuff youre eating instead really gives satisfaction and motivation

Me too. I have to stop.

@@michalski9141 this usually works until I'm at work and stress kicks in and other people have donuts and candy laying around. I have to work on my will power.

That's dumb.

Cold turkey quit. Bear the withdrawal and then never look back. 3 fructose-free years for me now. I refuse to eat sugary things ever again. They now repulse me. I used to be a total addict and am still dealing with being overweight (repricussion of my terrible diet before this).

Yeah I was super scared of fruit for a minute. Then I was immediately relieved AF

Yep. Also, no one gets obese on nuts or 99% chocolate either, for some reason. Seriously. You can eat whole handfuls or bars and still lose fat by the bucketload. Well, it's not easy to eat too many nuts. They're filling. Very. Or 99% chocolate. 50g is already daunting. _Warning:_ Eating too many brazil nuts can be toxic. So be careful.

Olivia esddms - Are you speaking of the 99% dark chocolate with less sugar? Because am absolutely certain this one can get obese consuming loads of milk chocolate. Have noticed dark chocolate doesn't induce overeating frenzy like milk chocolate does. Would also like to read about nuts being this way if you still have references on it.

No, we don't. If your body ever for some reason needs glucose there is a process called gluconeogenesis.

Jim Engström It is, very. Withdrawal kind of sucks ass, and with soda it's a double whammy.

Jim Engström try home made kombucha

I did it, it was awesome. I drank sugar free sodas, I'd start there. Make sure your foods have little to no added sugars. Avoid them like the plague.

Dropping the soda is a big step. It was hard for me in the beginning. Once I cut out carbs it calibrated my ability to sense the effects of glucose. Less tastes sweeter than before, I can feel when I had too much or when I should have had something with it to slow the insulin spike. In this process I've learned the value of 'x' amount of food. I know when I have had enough, I don't need more. The awesome thing about willpower is the more you use it, the stronger it gets and the better it feels.

Trying by using sugar free soda is a good start. I personally find many SF sodas taste funny, either because the sweetener is not idea for me, or they try to oversweeten it. Flavored, sweetened seltzer water is another step down. Then flavored seltzers are the next step down. I'm talking about when you want something other than plain water. When thirsty, plain water is great, but sometimes you want fizz or flavor. I still get diet ginger ales or diet root beer, but I don't really want diet colas and lemon sodas anymore. I'd rather have lemon or berry seltzers for flavors. and unsweetened ice tea, made with a good quality tea that is not over steeped can be awesome. Lemongrass, hibiscus, and Rooibas, and other non-camelia teas have great flavors as well as well made green tea that's not bitter.

@Mike M the hnic sadly passed away right after typing this

I’d imagine you feel guilt free as long as the sodas diet.

Glad you said that!! I sort of glazed over at things like "The SREBP1 from before activates these three enzymes..." 😎 It's hard for those of us who have no idea what he's talking about, because even those with a thorough grounding in biochemistry seem to disagree on what is actually going on. There seems to be a massive disparity between what's taught on the standard curriculum, what seems to be new information, and "Facebook science." I'm suitably wary of the latter, but also don't entirely trust the standard curriculum as most of it dates from pre-internet days when research was done in more isolation.

Fruits and natural honey don't count boooooiiiiii

Anyone tried this yet? Any comments?

Pasta is similar to bread which he has already explained in the video. Fruits are okay because they have fibre but I have no idea about honey. Refined sugar are usually things like white sugar, brown sugar(no, they are just as unhealthy as white sugar), syrups, overwhelming majority of cereals, juices and others. Pro tip: Avoid packaged foods as much as possible and try to stick to foods that are not processed. If possible, try to cook at home because you'll know what stuff you have put in when you're cooking.

That is true, but cooking your own food can be quite fun, release a lot of stress, and teach you an important life skill. I've been cooking all of my food for 2 months now, and it just makes it taste better when you've put all the work in

You don't have to avoid it.
