Never Eat These 'Healthy' Foods 🚫

Get ready for some eye-openers!

That handful of dried fruit? It’s a sugar overload!

And beware of "gluten-free" labels – some gluten-free pasta can spike your blood sugar just like regular pasta.

Then there's coffee – keep it simple or risk turning it into a sugar-laden dessert.

Even fruity yogurt can have more sugar than you’d expect.

Join us to uncover these surprising sugar traps and learn how to outsmart them!

Dried fruit has the same sugar as fresh fruit, the same fiber as fresh fruit, the same everything as fresh fruit.
The only difference is you get more of these nutrients per weight compared to fresh fruit.
The problem is that we tend to eat way more of the dried because it's condensed into a smaller volume.

I guess the only safe thing to ingest is "water". Just make sure it's not in a plastic bottle !! And for nutrients... Stare at the 🌞. 😀

Dates and prunes are packed with micronutrients and fiber.

I understand why peanut butter with added sugar and oils is bad, but you can pry my plain natural peanut butter out of my cold dead hands

You should be more detailed with your list. Glad you specified Starbucks, but the coffee is not the problem - its the sugar. Your list mostly boils down to hidden sugar.

You can eat absolutely anything, just exercise after ever meal. Do not let all these Doctors scare you.Take a walk after ever meal 15minutes preferably.

I wouldn't just say coffee, there's a world of difference between a black cup of coffee and a vanilla frappe from Starbucks. I would hope people know that lol

[elizabethrose]

it’s near impossible to avoid sugar in today’s world. depriving yourself of common tasty foods with other nutrients and just eating the most bland stuff you can find isn’t worth the stress

1) dried fruits (loaded with sugar)
2) peanut butter and frozen diners - belly fat
3) gluten free pasta - diabetes
4) fancy Starbucks coffee - diabetes
5) fruit yogurt (loaded with sugar)

Although dried fruit has sugar, it is a natural sugar, and it also has fiber, whereas refined sugar has zero fiber and gets absorbed faster than the fruit sugar.

Thank you for these important highlights!

Thank you for clarifying the dried fruits. I wanted to be clear on dates as I I love those

[yellow]

Ty for true you the one speak the truth we need more ppl like you !!

[jeannieconsiders]

Thank you. Dr. I didn't know that I should avoid some GF foods.

For dried fruit, you just have to eat the same number of fruits than fresh fruits, not the same weight.

So coffee is okay only if it doesn’t have added sugars/flavors/dairy ?

[thomasehrlich]

You’re absolutely correct this is why there is a health crisis. First it starts with insulin resistance then pre diabetes and eventually full blown diabetes.

[toniabardlabon]

i’m confused now. You did a whole video saying dates are fine to eat in moderation, yet they are the main item showing in your video today of what not to eat (dried fruit).
