I love the way Dr. Robert Lustig put it (paraphrase): "When nature packages sugar, it always packages it with the antidote - fiber." We are the only creatures in the world, in our total lack of wisdom, that decides to minimize or completely discard the antidote and maximize the thing that will slowly poison us - sugar.
@Hertz2laugh8 ай бұрын
Fiber is not an antidote, it is a plug. Fiber literally covers your intestines so that they can't absorb nutrients very well. That isn't a good thing. Yeah, it blocks some of the sugar absorption buy it also blocks everything else including vitamins and minerals. It's the most ridiculous take to say that fiber is an antidote for anything. Fiber does harm to humans by reducing their ability to absorb nutrients from the food they eat. It's like saying that sealing a plastic bag over your head is an antidote for air pollution...

@@Hertz2laugh You are correct, that fiber does act like an antinutrient. I personally don't subscribe to the notion that we need fiber. However, in a nation hellbent on maintaining a sugar addiction, if they are going to consume copious amounts of sugar, at least fiber acts as a prophylactic.

A few times a week I will mix the sparkling with fresh lemon and some orange juice. Then in the afternoon switch to just water again. Get my little fix, highly diluted, well before bedtime.

Hello, I thought that the sucrose in cola is a table sugar, this is a disaccharide made up of one molecule each of glucose and fructose bound together. In contrast, oranges contain more fructose, which is absorbed by the enterocytes and metabolised independently of insulin. It reaches the liver via the portal vein, where it is broken down via fructose-1-phosphate and glyceraldehyde to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Excesses are stored in the liver and muscles in the form of glycogen, which can be converted back into glucose when needed. Only when the glycogen stores are full is the excess glucose converted into fat and stored in the fat cells. No insulin is required to break down fructose, which means that blood sugar levels are barely affected. Fructose is metabolised independently of insulin and has a low glycemic index (GI) of just 22, and therefore barely affects blood sugar levels. (The GI of glucose, on the other hand, is 100.) Then the question arises: why is the glycemia peak so high? Do manufacturers add extra sugar to orange juice?

The funny thing about that fact is fructose is actually *more* harmful to your body than the glucose in sugar. Your liver can only metabolize so much fructose (very little, as fructose was rare for evolving humans), and any excess is deposited as fat in your liver or neighboring organs, organ fat being the most harmful, worse than visceral fat. With many modern people already having compromised liver health, fructose is an added stressor the liver cannot cope with easily. Best to only eat whole fruit, and to only eat it in moderation, particularly around exercise.

I used to work outside under the hot sun. I would drink soda and sugary drinks to "stay hydrated". I would get headaches and be thirsty even though I was tired of drinking too much water. Once I removed the sugary drinks and started eating fruit, drinking real fruit juice, my headaches vanished, i felt hydrated. I hear so many experts saying this food is "good", this food is "bad". Before believing them, I test whatever they say to confirm whether or not what they say is true. I have no issue with real fruit juice, but I understand other people might. Each person has to find out what works for them.

I appreciate you making this video. What I would like you to know is that fruit sugar is mainly fructose which does not need insulin to digest. It is different sugar to glucose which needs insulin to digest. I learned so much from Dr Robert Morse about fruit sugar and that it is not bad. The way your body processes it makes it the problem which you can heal. I have eaten lots of fruit and drink lots of fruit juice. I eat melon for breakfast. I have no sugar rollercoaster up and down.

Jessica's comments on fruit juices and fruit growing are really good. First, most of the fruit juices are real sugar bombs, and secondly, nowadays fruit (and also vegetable growing) hast nothing to do with natural conditions. They must be big, in perfect shape, seedless, as sweet as possible, long enduring, spotless and so on. That's kind of sick, particularly, when you have once been to the tropics and have seen fruits or vegetables in a natural environment. They may often appear not so perfect as you may expect, but in many cases they are much more tasty than the ones cultivated in huge farms. By the way, I like Jessica's presentations very much, also due to her fantastic appearance. Heinz, 64, MD, GER

I think the same principle applies when juicing vegetables, it is denatured, you are taking out the fibre. The fibre helps slow down the impact of a blood sugar spike. You’re better off not juicing at all. Furthermore, adding juiced vegetables will not drop the sugar content, 22g of sugar in a glass of orange juice topped up with juiced vegetables is still 22g of sugar. In fact, it is possibly more when the sugar in the juiced vegetable is factored in.

Loved this episode. I have been following some of her instructions like starting my meal with veggies, occasionally I drink vinegar before the meal and combining sugar-dense desserts with protein source like walnuts. I lost 5kg in a month :) and I do not feel hungry at all. The only side effect I have been experiencing is lethargy. I want to sleep for 10-11h, I get tired easily and basically want to go to bed all the time except morning hours. I believe this is the adaptation of my brain to low blood sugar levels. Just curious, is this diet eventually ketogenic? and since my sugar intake is lower but still not as low as in ketogenic diets, will my body and brain finally find their way to metabolism that will boost my energy, not the other way around? Happy to receive scientific articles regarding what happens in such scenarios :)
