In this video, we’re going to talk about some of the side effects of consuming too much sugar. Some of the well-known side effects of sugar include fatigue, brain fog, belly fat, carb cravings, and cavities.

Is there a difference between sugar and carbohydrates? A carbohydrate consists of sugar, fiber, and starch. Starches are called polysaccharides, meaning many sugars or multiple sugar molecules connected together. Starches raise blood sugar levels significantly more than sugar.

Starches like maltodextrin, modified food starch, and modified corn starch have a much higher glycemic index than sugar.

Here are 7 surprising signs that you’re consuming too much sugar:

7. Reduced collagen
Reduced collagen will result in loose, wrinkled skin and premature aging.

6. Chronic white tongue
Candida from too much sugar will cause you to have a white tongue. You won’t be able to get rid of it without eliminating sugar from the diet.

5. Chronic sinus problems
Most chronic sinus problems are caused by a fungus called Aspergillus that feeds on sugar.

4. Red or pink gums
Red or pink on your toothbrush after brushing could signify a mild case of scurvy or vitamin C deficiency. High sugar consumption blocks vitamin C.

3. Low testosterone
Low testosterone can cause erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, and difficulty building muscle.

2. Susceptibility to infection
Too much sugar can weaken your immune system, making you more vulnerable to infection.

1. High adrenaline levels
Too much sugar damages the cell’s ability to make energy in the mitochondria. To compensate, the body produces more adrenaline.

I thought it was impossible to quit sugar but after nearly a year, I no longer crave sweet things

[DoritosBurger]

I don’t really crave sugar too much, the issue for me is just having sweets in the house, then I’ll be encouraged to eat it, but if there is nothing sweet in the house I can go without it just fine.

“Eating too much sugar” if I say that to my diabetic dad, he’ll burst out saying “I don’t have sugar” even though I’ve told him hundreds of times that carbs are sugar🙄 he still eats his carbs🤦🏻‍♂️

Now here's a docter I don't mind having an appointment with. Most docters don't share their knowledge because all they know is drugs. This guy cares!

Happy mother's day to all mothers living and all mother's in heaven 🙏🏽

[luvinprogress]

Wow…. now I know why I had chronic sinus issues and nervous energy etc. growing up. I’m really grateful for all the wisdom you impart. Teaching is certainly your gift - thank you!

[Yamaazaka]

I'll never forget Dr. Shawn Baker telling stories from his practice, of having to tell people to their face that he will have to cut off their diabetic foot if they don't cut the carbs... And some outright respond that they cannot! If that's not addiciton. There is no such thing.

[smallisbeautiful]

This video was THE MOST convincing one yet.Those particular symptoms are way too familiar to me... Everything from having to brush and scrape the plaque off my tongue AT LEAST four times per day, to the chronic sinus infections, insomnia, etc... And those profit margin discrepancies when comparing the different foods! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS INFORMATION!!!

[gertwallen]

Also beware of labels that say "No added sugar", they are mostly worse than sugar as they contain other chemicals that are more glycemic (sorbitol, etc)

This is so insightful. I remember it was your video I watched that made me quit sugar years ago, no more puffness in face and eyes, beautiful skin, relaxed mood and feeling great, best decision ever and I'm so grateful for that. Thank you so much, Dr Berg 🙏🏻

[francesbacon]

I sent your video on multi dextrin to my nurses. Not one of them even heard of it. They thanked me so much. I have not had 1 sugar free soda since viewing it. Thank you. I also purchased Vitamin D 10, 000 units with is it K3 right after watching your video.

[judithcoe]

Thank you Dr Berg. I am suffering from high sugar, cholesterol and blood pressure. I appreciate you educating us on the sugars in food and related to profit. May God Bless you! Have a Happy Mothers Day to All!❤🎉🙏✝️💐

[Jikkyy]

Love the honesty in your videos & the depth of critical thinking. And wit!

[heroicsquirrel]

I’ve nearly completely stopped eating bad sugars, no bread, cereals, cakes, beer etc etc, I’ve had two squares of 85% dark chocolate in the last two weeks and some salted crisps that’s it, my sleep is massively improved and general energy levels are higher. At some point I’ll enjoy a beer or something but for now I’m avoiding bad sugar, my body deserves a break

[k_j]

Started a healthy low carb diet & OMAD + weights&cardio about a week ago. I see massive improvements in my skin and my belly fat has almost completely melted away. More people need to see doc's vids. Sharing them with everyone I know!
