How To Break Free From Sugar Addiction - Do This Today To Stop Craving Sweets! | Dr. Robert Lustig

[@barrysmith8193]

I’m a 3 tour Vietnam combat veteran with VA diagnosed chronic PTSD. I discovered via Dr Lustig that my diet, that was never discussed in VA counseling, was driving my PTSD. I changed cold turkey to nothing but real foods and eliminated all toxins and the result was, and still is, dramatic.

[@perfumedhydra8866]

This is so great. Rock on! 🤘

[@scorpionpro]

Thank you for serving 🙏❤️ I'm glad you are getting good results !

[@Triple265]

You are loved❤

[@marycollins8215]

Very impressive. I'm a 65 year old who never was in the military, thank you for your service, but at 36 I was diagnosed with MS and I made major changes in diet, also had to do my own research and have been validated now nearly 30 years symptom free. I'm sure that your story is one that is uncommon and that's sad. Hoping that things like youtube will change all of that!

[@MrTea7]

There is more wisdom in your statement that in everything the TV network MDs say in a year.

Too right jimmy, it is simple, and it is not easy, but the alternative is awful.

[@pennyt820]

thank you for confirming - takes 3+ weeks. I still fight wanting sugar every day (dream about it) but instead of a fast I exercise, eat right and get 15 min of sunshine daily.

[@ginalee7704]

[@tinacarvelli6884]

Don't give up!

[@MrTea7]

Sunshine the best vitamin and it's free. Not sure if it holds but one saying is "if your shadow casts taller than you" you are past the point where skin-absorbed D works. But season of year matters, etc. I trust intuitive sense of yourself. I rode out Covid using just D-absorbed skin exposure , whole body 1/2 hour each side mid day in May. Felt better getting it and after. In 2013 I heard CoastAM guest say "take D in winter you won't get the flu" so far it works.

[@debbiedean3165]

Eat pure, real food. No processed food. It takes 30 days. You'll feel great, and exercise tremendous control in the future because now you'll know how addictive sugar is. Maybe in the future you could have one treat a week. But if you have the same experience I did, you'll feel so amazing you won't want to go back to the enslavement to sugar and processed food. Try it.

[@LelaHaines]

[@sunbeam9222]

After starving myself for decades avoiding any type of fat and then binging on carbs senseless , I finally caught up with the fact that it was the wrong approach. I now do not restrict, eat to satiety and make sure my diet is full of LCHF food 🥑. Each meal is a celebration so savoury and rich comparing to my previous diet full of privation only to binge later on that week. I eat way less, I thought i was a glutton, actually not at all, I was just deprived of beautiful nutrients.

Fortunately, I have a niece who received a degree in nutrition from BYU and she lives next door. She makes the most incredible foods without additives, sugars, oils, et al. And it is wonderful!! I eat pretty well anyway on primarily fruits and vegetables, flaxseed oil, some butter and eggs from organically pastured chickens. But my young niece has shown me how delicious real food can be so tasty and easy to make (like a cashew mayo that is simple and excellent).

What this man says is true. We are addicted to Sugar it's like a drug. My husband is the one that's a bad influence. He doesn't feel like he needs to give up anything because he's never been sick yet he's 56 now it will catch up to him

[@mohsinalithecver8]

Detachment is the key

[@rebeccadunehew8768]

Yeah, unfortunately it may catch up with him. My husband thought his high blood pressure and sleep apnea were no big deal. Had first stroke at 51, another milder one at 53, and was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension (caused by years of uncontrolled high blood pressure) in July before his 54th birthday and died 4 months later. As you get older your body just isn't as resilient and forgiving. Contrast, my Dad was told he had high cholesterol and high blood pressure at about 50. Started walking most days per week for exercise, , improved his diet, lost a little weight (about 25 pounds) and lived to be just a month or so shy of 87. I also had high blood pressure, did low carb diet, lost about 50 pounds and got off the beta blocker. It can be done.

[@Dominik40301]

I think sugar addiction is influenced by personality and physical properties of person, because there are people who eat more sugar than they should- like 75 grams per day, from bad sources, but they dont go wild and like eat 3 slices of cake often. They somehow dont cross that line even though they like to eat sweet and they eat more than they should. Where there are people who can normally drink like big bottle of Coca Cola and that alone is like 200 grams of sugar + sugar from food that day. So yes, sugar is addictive, but to certain degree based on individual.

[@katubahsimcha7053]

Oftf and on, over the years, I have blamed the people in my house for my eating poorly. Recently I decided that my health was my responsibility, and no one else's. It takes planning and self discipline, and I'm sure I'll have occasional setbacks, but everyone else in my house seems to have a different metabolism (arrgh!), but, as they say, you never fail, until you give up! 😉

I've been eating a high nutrition whole food diet for decades. I work w/ a guy who hates vegetables and eats a lot of processed foods. He destroyed his microbiome and had to have an Ileostomy, or he would be dead. Avoid sugar, seed oils and all processed food if you value your life.

[@kimwestra2961]

Taking baby steps like saying to yourself “Just for today, I’m not going to eat processed foods.” Pick a place to start and start there. Be consistent!!! I don’t look at the calories anymore but look at the food and say to myself how will that raise my glucose.

[@barrysmith8193]

Accepting personal responsibility is imperative. In reality insulin resistance is personal responsibility resistance. We ever eat sugar in any form. We are both 76, glucose baselines of 96, BP base line is 108/72, eat zero foods that we don’t prepare, if it has a label we don’t buy or eat it. We also ride our bikes 2 - 30 minute events each day, and take no meds of any kind. This is not magic… you have to be responsible to each other.

[@2puffs770]

[@sunbeam9222]

I do now how that feels. Please start with believing you can totally overcome that addiction. It's all about hormone regulation and insulin. Insulin stores the calories into our body as fat, and so we're forever looking for more carbs. Once we manage to understand and break this pattern , we consume fats and proteins instead, and those macro give us satiety. And when we do that long enough we lose the attraction for carbs, because our hormones have rebalanced.

Actually my grandma use to sit at her table and take a teaspoon and dip into the sugar bowl and eat a spoon of sugar when she wanted something sweet.

damn that Pepsi... the sugar free is awful... best i can substitute is unsweetened tea with lime .... arg.. ive quit softdrinks several times but the shit always weedles its way back... fastfood .. popcorn.... tacos... arg ... need strength cuz this shit is literally killing me.....maybe carnivore?

[@RobertMckee-r3d]

Get a water filter, so water tastes good.. The only thing that’s ever worked for me was to go cold turkey by going low-carb (20-30 carbs per day). No sugar or processed food (Cut it down as much as possible).. It will be hard for a few days, maybe a week.. Then the cravings go away and food tastes amazing. There is no one answer for everybody, but what works for me probably works for a lot of people.

[@PeCo333]

Carnivore diet is a good idea!

[@mybeautifuldoggies]

Soft drinks ARE a real struggle to give up!! I also had to do it a few times before it finally stuck -- it's been twenty years now 🥳. This is what worked for me ... there are certain foods that you feel simply cannot be eaten without Coca-cola, or Pepsi, or whatever ... I substituted Welch's Concord Grape 🍇 Juice for Coke ... it's an acceptable substitute ... it will do. I did this for a year or two, can't remember, exactly. In that time, the Coca-cola addiction was completely broken, then I worked on substituting water for the juice -- you can do that gradually. I still love the juice, as I had some when it was right in front of me a few months ago, and then I craved it for a few weeks, but the key 🗝️ is not to have it around. Juice is easier to give up than the soda -- self control will do it -- but the soda is a drug -- it is formulated to addict! ☹️ Part of the secret is to hate it -- hate the fact that it was formulated to addict you, and to destroy your liver ☹️ -- learn about what it does to your liver, and thereby destroys your health. It helped me just to get angry enough 😡, that there are people who are so evil that they want to destroy my health for their profit 🤑! Sending my best wishes for your health! 😊

[@wtpwtp]

Nonsense! I've eaten a zero-sugar diet before (except for fruit), & I can (& will, if I allow myself any leeway, due to my sugar-addiction) eat virtually unlimited fruit. However, the fiber does nothing to slow down or limit my fruit intake. Therefore, I end up with all sorts of health issues from the fruit sugar. My solution is to simply no longer eat any fruit (or any direct sugar from any source) so that I don't fall into my sugar addiction trap.

[@Dominik40301]

Its interesting how some people eat excess sugar in diet like 75 grams per day, but they dont go wild- like eat whole 200 gram chocolate or drink 2 litres of Coca Cola. They do get sugar from bad source- coffee, juices, cakes, cookies etc, but they like dont drink like entire 1litre apple juice like i did before when i ate lot of sugar. Its like based on person, will you get addicted to certain level or not. Because if it is so addictive in general, all people who lets say drinked 3 glasses of apple juice would get startet addiction, but they dont, next time they drink 2 glasses etc. So, they say sugar is more addictive than heroin, yes, to certain people, but not in general.

[@user-wr3jh7ov3h]

Do people really struggle that much? Just throw away any food that has added sugar in it. Keep a small jar of actual sugar for special occasions (visitors, birthday cake, etc). And at the grocery, only buy foods that haven’t been highly processed and have little to no sugar in it. You can’t binge eat on sugar if it’s not in the house.
