You got to love how Dr. Berg explains what exactly you need to know without wasting too much time.

I just had an interesting and fairly painful experience with diet soda. Generally I don't like the flavor of diet soda but I went into a store one day and I was Jonsing for something sugary but as part of my own "Put an end to my TII diabetes" program I decided to get a diet soda rather than go around the corner and get some ice cream which is what I really wanted. The next day I did the same and all of a sudden I had a one, two or three a day diet soda thing going on. I craved them the way I craved sugar. Then I started to develop joint pain in my knees and elbows. I did not associate the joint pain with the sodas but it had come out of nowhere. No injuries or illness. Then, one day, I had to stop at a hardware store to pick up some stuff for a job. They had a soda machine and along with the hardware I needed I also got a large diet pepsi. I had been feeling a little creeky but nothing I hadn't gotten used to. I went to work and about an hour and a half after drinking the diet soda the pain in my knees was so bad I could hardly finish the job I was on. The only thing different in my day was that diet Pepsi. So I quit. No more diet drinks. The elbow pain went away first. Then the pain in the right knee and then, after several weeks of really intense knee issues in my left knee it finally went back to functioning like normal. Again-the only difference in my diet was eliminating the diet soda. The left knee got so bad that I was taking Ibuprophin just so I could sleep at night. Then the leg cramps started along with random spasms. So I added several doses of Turmeric, potassium and magnesium and that seemed to help. The last week or so I have not had any of the supplements and all of the leg issues are gone. Was it the diet soda? I think so, but I am not going to test it out by drinking the stuff again. It's bad stuff to begin with, I don't need it in my otherwise healthy diet. One last note-my HbA1c is now down around 4.6----down from 6 last September and down from over 8 three years ago.

Here I was carelessly drinking eating and drinking zero sugar labeled products in general for at least 1 year. Thought my issues stemmed from some other issue like a swollen prostate and age ( 38 ) . Man was I an idiot for having trust in the food industry and I blame myself for not looking into this sooner . It’s been about a month and a half since being diagnosed. I started hitting the gym and increased physical activities in general. I am on several medications. I eat nothing but berries, eggs, leafy greens, avocado, chicken and fish. I limit salt intake to a negligible amount. NO processed sugar at all. I eat twice a day , three times if I feel really hungry. My portion size is now half the amount in comparison to my familiar amount. I have managed to go from 237 lbs to 224 lbs since the diagnosis. I feel a lot better but still have work to do. I am giving it my all and trying my best to reverse this horrible disease.

Start water fasting, begin with one meal a day, then alternate day one meal a day and then go one prolonged water fasting, some people do 40 days, if you stay on a keto diet your fastings are easier. They reboot the system, People understand the need for sleep, muscle recovery, but they never understand the need for giving your ingestion digestion process a rest. Ofcourse consult your doctor, people like doctor jason fung and doctor pradeem jamnadas have done great contribution in this direction. Kindly heal yourself out of such diseases.

When I did keto years ago, I literally ate as much as I wanted, and I drank as many diet cokes as I wanted, and after 3 months I was shredded. Abs sticking out. People thought I had cancer I was so skinny. And then I went back to carbs and I kept losing weight. My metabolism reset and sped up. It took me like 6 years to gain all the weight back (where I’m at today). I’m debating doing the keto diet again but now that I don’t live at my moms house I have to cook and I get grossed out cooking raw foods it’s like a phobia of mine so I’m struggling but would love to go back to the keto for three months to reset myself. I never fasted like he suggests I had my 2-3 meals a day at least and snacks and lots of peanut butter believe it or not. The calories were def high but I shredded and again I smashed diet cokes like they were going out of style. I don’t think you can just have a blanket statement with diets. Everyone’s body responds difffernrly . You can also get shredded eating only carbs. Bodybuilders do it they stay lean and eat carbs you need carbs to grow. You have to find a diet that’s a lifestyle and not something that’s temporary otherwise you’ll always get back to your original fat self

If your ketone levels rise too high, insulin is produced to slow the break-down of fat (into fatty acids), inhibits the liver from turning fatty acids into ketone bodies and helps to make ketone use more efficient in the body. For type I diabetics they have to be concerned about Diabetic Ketoacidosis because they are unable to produce insulin which regulates ketone bodies in the blood. The only good test is a blood test. Breath and urine are extremely unreliable. 0.5 - 1.5 mM(millimolar) - Low to Moderate Nutritional Ketosis 1.5 - 3.0 mM(millimolar) - Optimal Ketone Zone (feel good for most zone) 3.0 - 5.0 mM(millimolar) - Most graphs call this "Starvation" > 10.0 mM(millimolar) - Ketoacidosis

Thank you for this! Ok, so if we drink the diet sodas you said (no caramel, no phos.., no aspartame) *does the body treat it as food*? I'm doing keto and intermittent fasting. I know you said anything you eat/drink activates insulin in the body. So I want to know if drinking said sodas will have an effect or if the body thinks it water . Thanks!

Always Zevia for me! Tastes great and the best option if you’re craving soda

My personal experience is that it doesn't kick you out of ketosis, but I'm sure it's playing with fire.

Thank You Dr Berg, such great content.

Just make your own soft drink. Grass fed beef Collagen powder. Organic lemons. Mint, ginger mix in carbonated water and your own sweetener. It's amazing I will never go back to drinking soft drinks again.

@@ultimaetsolder lol don't knock till you try it. Oh you are under impression that the Collagen powder has taste? It's the best drink I'm going add turmeric to give it more of a kick to make into a potent liver cleanser.

Dr Berg, would like to know your views on Cyclical Keto? I'm doing keto 6 days a week with under 20g carbs and having one day either a sat or Sunday with reducing fat, keeping protein pretty much the same around 160g and bringing carbs upto 150g, I've seen the forum online and if you could do a video on that please.

Mind blown on caramel coloring! Great info Dr Berg!

I drank both all through my Keto diet and I lost 109lbs no problems.

Wow thank you for this

Is Zevia soda (stevia) and Virgil soda (stevia, monk fruit, erythritol) safe for keto? Thanks

Thank you so much Dr. Berg. NOW I finally understand the exact and true dangers of consuming Coca Cola and Coke Zero! I had a heart attack in February 2015 and survived, and I always knew it was the Coke Zero that was one of the major reasons I did, because for about 5 years prior to my heart attack, I was consuming each and every day, 2 to 3 liters of Coke Zero. I was drinking very little watch but sure slugging back the Coke Zero. I never consumed Coke Zero since my heart attack. I did consume Coca Cola but have since quit anything sugar including artificial sweeteners for about a half a year. Excellent video. 10/10+++++

Thank you Dr. Eric for you well explained video. I really like Fanta Zero, and I wondering if it affects my keto diet. It contains Aspartame. I've read that aspartame comes in different solutions: pure, in sugar form, etc. And that some of these solutions can kick you out of ketose, and others not. What I then tried to do was test my glucose before the fanta zero. I got a glucose level of 86. Then drinked the can of fanta zero and waited 30 minutes. I retested my glucose levels and it remained exactly at 86. Does that mean I can safely drink it while doing keto (moderately of course). I'd usually drink one can (250 ml) during workday lunches

thnks for this video... waht can you recommend on soda?? ty

I quit drinking Diet Coke several years ago. I love soda and have started drinking “Sparkling Ice”. It says it has Antioxidants and Vitamins with Zero Sugar. Is this bad for you too?

*Thank you dr, berg♥*

This is very timely I was thinking about this, as if you are a mind reader ... thank you Dr. Berg!!! 😇

Dr. Berg, Is the Ammonia still an active ingredient after it's been heated? I should know this, but am stumped. Thanks so much.

Like so many videos he tells us what not to drink but I was waiting for him to make reference to at least one that I could drink. I have been drinking Diet Coke for years.

What about Monster Zero Ultra Energy Drink? It has no aspartame or caramel colouring.

What camera do you use doctor BTW focus is quite good?

Zevia is a very healthy Coke alternative with stevia. It doesn't contain caramel color or sugar, and you can get caffeine free if you prefer.
