The average American consumes 75 teaspoons of sugar per day! Find out why you should stop eating sugar today. Your health depends on it! 0:00 Introduction: Stop eating sugar! 0:12 Symptoms of low blood sugar 1:24 Blood sugar explained 2:12 Insulin resistance 4:44 Processed sugar vs. whole sugars 9:56 What about low blood sugar? 10:24 How to break sugar addiction 10:39 Fructose Today, we’re going to discuss the effects of sugar on your health. Sugar is considered toxic in the body, so it is removed from the blood when you consume it. Similar to body temperature, blood sugar is kept constant at around 80. When you consume sugar, the hormone insulin removes sugar from the blood and puts it into the cells. If you continue eating large amounts of sugar, the body begins to protect itself by blocking the receptors for insulin in your cells. This ultimately decreases the amount of sugar inside your cells. Over time, this compensation mechanism will break down, and you will no longer produce enough insulin to keep your blood sugar levels down, eventually leading to diabetes. There are two types of sugar: processed sugars and whole sugars. Heavily processed sugars, such as glucose, dextrose, corn syrup, glucose syrup, high fructose corn syrup, agave syrup, white sugar, brown sugar, and rice syrup, are devoid of important nutrients like B vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, and phytonutrients. Your body requires nutrients to turn sugar into energy. When you consume processed sugars without the nutrients, your body pulls from your nutrient reserves to use the sugar as fuel. Raw honey has 181 different chemicals that offer protection and allow you to metabolize the sugar. Maple syrup, turbinado sugar, molasses, coconut sugar, palm sugar, and date sugar are also less processed forms of sugar. If you’re having trouble quitting sugar, consume fruits or whole sugars instead of processed sugars as you focus on lowering your intake.

Came across this video around 7am. I was about to eat a bowl of cereal. I threw it out and made some eggs instead for breakfast. Thank you Dr. Berg for the reminder this morning.

I stopped eating sugar six weeks ago and faced some withdrawal symptoms during the first days. Now, in the seventh week, I feel my body gets used to it. The type of addiction that sugar causes is very disturbing. Thanks a lot for the knowledge around that topic.

I did an experiment at college for a week and we presented our findings to the class. My group eliminated grains and sugars (even natural sugars and balsamic vinegar.) 3 days in I had a migraine (I expected that) after that I had cold like symptoms for a couple of days. After a week, it was like my brain woke up. I was motivated, sharp, and even more energetic. I slept so well, and my clothes were noticeably looser, yet I never felt hungry. My back pain disappeared too, which had been really bad. Some things like cashews tasted so much sweeter. I wish I'd kept it up. I'm going to do it again. Trust me, the benefits are amazing!

I was pre-diabetic, and I quit sugar and went on Keto. Not only did I lose 110 lbs all together, but when I went back to the doctor 6 months later, I was no longer pre-diabetic. Thanks Doc.

I quit eating sugar and lost all my desire to eat. I eat now, simply as a maintenance routine, but the gluttony is gone.
