Sugar means doctor visits. Doctor visits mean medication. Medication means even MORE doctor visits. More doctor visits means less money. Avoid sugar, save money!

You cut a whole category out, big surprise.

I love this lecture and you have done a great job shortening it without losing the meaning.

beautiful work. Everyone should be sharing this with those they care about. Once you watch this look into the way sugar feeds cancer. In fact if you have cancer cells they are the first to light up immediately after eating sugar. SO MANY serious problems are linked directly to sugars. We SHOULD have a tax like we do for liquor, for all things sugar.

A sugar tax wouldn't stop people from eating lots of it. A sugar tax would just hurt poor people's wallet. Education is the key to changing people's minds and behavior.

People just to clarify to help you. Fructose from eating raw friuts and the Glucose from raw vegetables is very very healthy. What he is talking about is refined sugars from junk food and junk drink and excess complex carbohydrates and alcohol.

Well in fact he said opposite - Fructose is any different from other sugars, and sometimes is even worse. The thing is that fruits and vegetables are way much healthier due to vitamins, and fibers than junk food and that is why every dietetician will tell you that fruits are way much better than sweets but in terms of sugar they are the same, they are just lesser evil due to nutrition values.

Thankyou Dr. Lustig - very interesting - I live in South Africa - will load up on green veg - never drink sodas or fruit juices but like my wine - am cutting down consistently. Warm regards

Excellent information and video!! Learned alot. Thank you Dr. Lustig!

Very informative. Thank you for this excellent lecture!

I'm convinced - thank you! As far as the government, it just lends further credence to the need for individual responsibility vs government greed. Educate the individual and and demand will drive the products. Visit Pro Home Cooks and learn how to make catsup, tomato sauce, mayo, and countless other things for a fraction of the cost and without the added fructose, corn syrup, etc. Thanks for motivating me!

Amazing knowledge Thank you for sharing

brilliant ! great presentation, well summarised. thank you for sharing.

Terrific lecture and great editing. I've watched both versions. Dr. Lustig is admirable. I wonder how many "OK?"s you removed (thankfully). If you played a drinking game of a swig at every "Kay?"...talk about liver toxicity...

Thank you!

Bravo. Well summarized. I was having flashbacks to some of Linus Pauling's work that also demonized fructose. He too was a visionary by any measure.

Got ya. But where does the glucose come from? The breakdown of carbohydrates?

@schmoborama

2 жыл бұрын

pretty sure glucose 'is' a carbohydrate. it's the sugar that comes from starches like wheat & corn, and mr. lustig says that there's practically no amount of it that's toxic. That makes sense b/c who would believe that you can be poisoned by eating too much bread or rice -

I like the biochem better than the politics.

It would have been helpful if you gave us a list of good foods to buy. As you well know, the healthier foods are on the bottom shelves in the back. They don’t make it easy to find them and choices are very limited. Could you give us an idea of what foods you eat? This was very informative. Thank you.

Ok, great information I love it but I have one complaint and it's freaking HUGE, because it was driving me freaking freaking nuts I counted on a pencil and paper how many times this guy said ( OK) OH MY FREAKING GOSH HE SAID IT 167 TIMES. HE'S LIKE LEO GETS FROM LETHAL WEAPON DROVE ME INSANE AND I REALLY NEEDED TO HEAR THIS INFORMATION I HAD TO GO THROUGH IT SOMEONE NEEDS TO TELL HIM

It makes sense to me to pronounce fructose with a long u, like sucrose or fruit. I understand you wanting to rhyme it with fu*k .

Very informative ,but continually saying ok was driving me mad !!!

If someone could take all the bio-chemistry out of this and condense it down to a short length, it might be of value and interest. Simple talk for simple people...it is not. Too much like a boring college lecture where a professor takes an interesting subject and turns it into a nightmare.
