hi guys I’m back in we’re gonna talk

about what to say to your friends and

family members who keep pushing these

carbohydrates on you that tell you you

need more carbohydrates to increase your

energy kids need more carbohydrates it’s

a healthy thing how do you deal with

that okay so let’s just kind of go

through it there’s certain comments made

that keto is not balanced okay it

doesn’t include all the food groups

yeah well that’s for a reason because

the refined carbohydrates is part of

that food group and refined sugar is not

real food it actually depletes you of

nutrients okay so you don’t need those

eating those is not a balanced thing to

do because it’s going to deplete

nutrients and of course they’re gonna

say well they enrich it with synthetic

vitamins well it’s not the same thing

I’m sorry it’s not the same thing the

only group that is promoting this are

the food manufacturing people all right

so then we have this concept there is no

such thing as a bad food I know this

sounds utterly ridiculous yes there are

bad foods and there’s good foods but

some people are putting this out there

usually food manufacturing companies to

get you just to think in moderation to

eat their junk food in moderation

okay so then we get the cheat day will

help you stick to it I hear this

sometimes when people say well dr. Berg

how come you don’t have a cheat day it

allowed me to do it more consistently

and longer and stick to it

no won’t because it’s gonna increase

your blood sugar and then insulin is

gonna come in there and push it right

down now you’re really gonna crave now

you’re you’re doing fine now you’re

doing really bad because you’re gonna

want the carbohydrate even more it’s

kinda like having a cheat day with your

spouse is that going to increase a

healthy relationship what do you think I

don’t think so or how about this one yes

it’s true keto does help you lose weight

for the short term but it’s too hard to

do it long term because it’s so

restrictive well first of all it’s going

to get rid of your cravings to

carbohydrates it’s gonna get rid of you

the hunger making it incredibly easy to

do long term if you do the higher

carbohydrates with all the flexibility

of eating all the different food groups

you’re going to gain weight and have a

lot of health problems plus you’re

always going to be hungry and you’re

gonna be craving

the wrong foods and actually the longer

you do it the easier it gets because

your body adapts to fat burning and it’s

a natural thing and your and you’ll feel

better and you’ll want to stick to it

okay so realize there’s no essential

carbohydrates there’s no requirement for

carbohydrates okay there is none protein

and fat there is but not carbohydrate

and realize normal blood sugar and we’re

just gonna say like eighty eighty would

be an example of a normal blood sugar

okay what does that mean it means that

you have about a teaspoon of sugar in

all of your blood that’s a gallon and a

little bit more than a gallon and a half

of blood it’s not that much an average

person consumes thirty-one teaspoons of

sugar okay

that’s like 30 teaspoons more than you

need normally so that right there that

tells you our bodies were not designed

to consume that much sugar and you can

get that one teaspoon from eating fat or

protein you don’t need to eat sugar to

get your sugar all right and realize

that diabetes is a disease of high sugar

in the blood okay that’s what it is so

why would you want to add more sugar or

carbohydrate to a body that has too much

of it in the first place okay it’s like

dumping gasoline on a fire

it’s gonna make things a lot worse did

you realize that the number one cause of

death in Mexico is diabetes and they’re

the top country that consumes the most

soda I’m gonna wonder if there’s a

connection there yeah in America we have

diabetes ranked number seven as a killer

and that’s simply because it’s 65

percent of Americans

65 percent of the population is either

pre-diabetic or diabetic that means that

they’re consuming too many carbs alright
