Sugar doesn’t just cause weight gain-it has negative effects on almost every part of your body. Today we’re going to talk about how sugar affects your red blood cells.
A1C is a test that measures how much sugar is stuck to your red blood cells. If you have an A1C of 5.7% or less, that would be considered normal. An A1C between 5.7% and 6.4% would be considered prediabetes, and 6.4% or higher would be considered diabetes.
A healthy red blood cell is flexible, and it should be able to free flow and carry oxygen through the body. Sugar lowers the ability of the red blood cells to carry oxygen and reduces the volume of red blood cells.
An unhealthy red blood cell that has sugar stuck to it will be very stiff and sticky. This can cause clots and can cut off blood flow to certain tissues, which can lead to necrosis, gangrene, and infections.
It can also cause problems with the eyes, including diabetic retinopathy, which can lead to blindness. Other areas of the body that are affected are the gums, kidneys, and arteries.
An A1C test is a better test than a blood sugar test, and it can even be done right at home using a home testing kit.
It doesn’t take much sugar to raise your glucose and create a high A1C causing negative effects on your body.
Instead of only trying to treat the symptoms of this issue, start working on your diet. Try cutting out sugar and getting on the Healthy Keto diet, and see how much better you feel.

[@fhdb478]

For me, there's only one way to deal with sugar: Avoid it all cost and without exception. A little sugar in the daily diet creates the craving for more sweet stuff and I would end up eating more and more over time. The same goes for substitutes - I just avoid them! And yes, since the moment I made that decision and put it into action, I have become much more agile, sharp and I am basically never out of breath.

[@frostiefrost5534]

Problem is, unless you add the sugar yourself, the western diet is so processed...there is no small amount in food because it is literally in everything!!!! I went keto and I'm mindblown at the amount of sugar in things you'd never even think to look for sugar in. For me personally, I did have bad sugar cravings the first week I cut it out but just like any addiction, you need to replace it with something better. For instance, monkfruit and erythitol sweeteners aren't like sugar, but they're sweet and don't have the negative effects. Since I'm pretty used to the zero carb sweeteners, I don't actually have the cravings for actual sugar. I wasn't a huge fan of the monkfruit in my coffee,but I tried erythitol and it tastes better but I still will even drink coffee now with no sugar and it doesn't bother me. Then,if you do say drink a 12oz soda..after cutting alot of sugar out, it will throw you off as to HOW sweet it is after a keto reset.

[@fhdb478]

@Ketevan Dalakishvili neither where I grew up nor where I lived most of my life it was common to eat any of this. I don't have to fight any old habits, I just need to avoid picking them up. I have never lived in the US. Maybe you're right and it would be very hard to keep up my eating habit there.

Today I stumbled upon your "stop eating sugar for 2 weeks" video. And I believe you may very well have saved me from a slow, horrible death. I recognized many of my symptoms while you spoke. My mother had a book back when I was a teen called "Sugar Busters". My siblings and I hated it because as a teen, it removed everything we were used to. I got away with consuming tons of sugar in my lifetime. I'm in my early 50" now, and over the last few years it has started to catch up to me. Thank God I happened to see and pick on your video. Just as short as a few hours ago, I consumed 2 room temp bottled waters, and snacked on a big bowl of fresh lettuce. The shakes stopped, my gut discomfort isn't flaring up. I am completely sold. I can't say I'll completely avoid sugar all the time. But I will absolutely make a conscious effort every day from here on out.. Dr. Berg, Thank you for this video!!!

@@juststephanie1111 I lost 35 lbs. My advice is find a stevia sweetener you like and slowly use more of that and less of sugary foods to satisfy your sweet tooth. After 2-3 weeks you will be mostly waned off of the sugar. Also eat healthy fats like avocados or nuts to make you feel satisfied and full when you have cravings. Add salads too if you can, I know they're boring at first but the nutrients in them will satisfy mineral deficiencies that often cause us to crave sugary foods. And stay away from foods that turn into sugar quickly in your body, like pasta and white rice...they are just as bad as sugar!

The fact that you delivered this so gently (and thank you for that!) makes it no less terrifying. As a person who cannot go a day without consuming sweets multiple times a day, it helps to know just how damaging sugar is, and what exactly it's doing to our bodies on a cellular level. We all have our vices. Mine is that I'm addicted to sugar. I'm at a completely healthy weight, too, and that can give me a false sense of security to eat however much sugar I want. I'm trying to scare myself away from sugar. But it's so hard. Even knowing how destructive it is, I eat it. I've heard it said that a sugar addiction is akin to being addicted to cocaine.

In the morning I do a combo of stretching and QiGong and reps, in summer I hike the Alps or the mountainous terrain in Norway. I also intermittent fast regularly, sometimes till six pm. Sometimes when I'm bored I find myself grabbing sweets or a candy bar at work, it's a sort of frustration really. I'm looking for a reward in the middle of the day because I work hard. I need to get back to that stoic self I was in my twenties. It was a strong mindset, a good mental attitude. Even now I think I qualify as above average healthy and still I could do better. I'm fifty now and I want to avert any chance of ever getting cancer, and I'd like to continue to have strong eye sight. Your videos are very informative and well spoken and interesting. Every since I discovered IF in 2016 I have been watching your videos and you're been a tremendous inspiration, so thank you for this challenge! Best wishes from Holland.

I’ve dramatically cut my sugar intake for about a month and not only noticed changes in my physical health but also my mental health. I can think clearer, less and less brain fog, can do things and solve problems easier. I wish I would’ve done this years ago.

As an overweight person who has been loosing weight recently, I never really understood how badly sugar is affecting my ability to do so. Thank you so much. I've lost 26kg so far in the last few months, and this has just helped me be re motivated to loose more and get better.

I realized I had an awful sugar addiction a while ago but there does come a point where you know you're absolutely doing TOO MUCH and have to change immediately. For me, that day was when I was eating hibiscus flavored sugar. I made some hibiscus lemonade and ended up licking the spoon (it was sticky), why oh why did I have to lick the spoon! I knew I had to stop and I went on a sugar detox. I'd been doing well for months and recently had a little relapse, so this video is right on time. To anyone who is on the struggle bus with me, be encouraged! I can honestly say that you don't know how awful sugar makes you feel until you detox from it. I felt like was on drugs when I started back eating even just a small amount. It's NOT worth it. I needed this motivation to get back on track. Thanks Dr. Berg! Love you mean it!! :)

[@ChiIeboy]

Dr. Berg, I'm 60 years old and I got off sugar, flour, starches, etc., in mid-February, with only a few, very brief splurges since. Prior to going keto, you cannot believe how much sugar and carbohydrates in general, that I consumed on a daily/weekly basis. I shutter to think about it, because the reality is that I was surely becoming pre-diabetic. Tingling and numbness in my toes and parts of my feet -- it was very scary! Fast-forward to the present, and I can 100% testify that my condition is reversed and I'm well on my way to a much normal -- dare I say healthy -- condition. I'm drinking fresh lemon juice everyday, along with apple cider vinegar, and taking proper vitamins and minerals as well, and the truth is that I feel great. (Still difficult to get enough potassium, though!) I'm sleeping better, have much more energy, headaches (and body aches) are essentially gone and I have lost upward of 20 pounds of body fat. This is a very brief synopsis, but I had a few minutes and wanted to drop you a note to THANK YOU for everything you're doing to improve the health and well-being of people whom you will likely never meet. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I gained 10 kilograms and straggled to return back to my healthy weight. Thanks to your educational videos I started Keto and OMAD. I feel so much better and the weight has started to disappear! I need to check my iron levels but all is good so far. Thank you so much.

[@gabrielacsinte9849]

Don't follow rules as "getting back on ideal weight class". What's important is metabolism. You can be healthier with extra 10 kilograms if you do things right. OMAD keeps your body in a catabolic state, increasing a lot stress hormones for your body to be able to get energy from your tissues because you can't get enough calories and nutrients in only one meal a day and also you don't have enough glycogen stores in the liver and muscles to be able to keep energy high all day. You must focus on a diet that keeps you in a anabolic state that will increase your metabolism, you will lose the unnecessary weight, sleep with be way better and you could become fertile again if everything goes alright. To do that you must eat every 2-3 hours like bodybuilders do. Your goal is not to become fit and muscular, but to increase your lifespan, and eating often keeps stress low all time. Your body will prioritize getting energy from food rather than tissues. Also, don't go over 30g of protein per meal because that's the limit your kidneys can process, If You go over it, the remained protein will be transformed in ammonia which will damage your kidneys in the long run. It's known that keto increases cortisol and if you don't believe me, please go and check your cortisol levels and fasting sugar levels.

Your videos reflect a similar, personal, warm concern and care coming from your heart. It is easy to tell from your delivery that you are a kind, caring and giving person. I just wanted to say thank you and let you know I am taking pretty good notes here. My wife and I have been improving our diet and health situation, and over the last couple years we've gotten to a point where diabetes is no longer a concern for us. Your videos are reinforcing things we have learned and we are learning more. God bless you and your efforts and God bless you and your family. Sincerest best regards. Leonard & Tracey Misner From South Carolina. 😁👍🙏❤️

This explains so much! I can visualize the damage I have been doing to myself. Fortunately, I began intermittent fasting 4 years ago and have mitigated much of my risks but now am determined to go the extra mile and lose the rest of my excess weight. Day 19 of a 30 day fast! So far, down 26lb. Keep up the informative and useful videos. Thank you!

[@yvenstsimonis]

Wow! What was your starting weight? What is your age and height as well?

[@malavica]

Thank you so much for this I needed this.

[@nilakanthankannan298]

OMG. That was really scary. And I thought just because my sugar levels were normal I could keep binging on sugars. Opened my eyes to the dangers. Thank you Dr Berg. Marvellous advice and video

[@ElizabethBattle]

Wow, I was diagnosed with microcytic anemia a couple of years ago. Doctors blamed heavy periods and prescribed iron; but no one mentioned sugar and how it influences red blood cells health. It's good to know another anemia-fighting weapon! Thank you!

[@julieb4800]
