Today, I’m going to tell you about 7 foods to avoid, along with some healthy alternatives.

1. Liquid sugar
Soda, juice, and high-sugar beverages deplete your body's vitamin and mineral reserves and contribute to insulin resistance. If you like soda, try Zevia zero-sugar soda instead!

2. Processed cheese
Pasteurized cheese products can’t be called cheese if they contain less than 51% cheese. Processed cheeses typically contain skim milk, canola oil, milk protein concentrate, modified food starch, whey protein, maltodextrin, preservatives, and salt. Choose real cheese instead!

3. Protein bars
Many protein bars are worse than candy bars! They’re often made with soy protein isolates and casein, and can contain 30 to 47 grams of sugar per bar! This number doesn’t include the starches, which are also sugar.

Protein bars are usually sweetened with highly processed sweeteners such as rice syrup, corn syrup, and tapioca syrup. Some are sweetened with sucralose, an artificial sweetener made from a chlorine compound.

Try boiled eggs, cheese, and meat jerky for quick protein.

4. Seed oil mayonaise
Almost every mayo available lists soy oil as its first ingredient. Soy oil is a seed oil that’s highly processed using solvents like hexane. It’s high in omega-6s, which can be highly inflammatory. Look for mayo that is made with avocado oil and zero seed oils. Chosen Foods mayo and Primal Kitchen mayo are much better options.

5. Sweetened, flavored yogurt
Seventy percent of the yogurt people buy is sweetened, flavored yogurt. This yogurt contains more sugar per ounce than ice cream! It also contains artificial colorings and flavorings.

Opt for plain whole-fat grass-fed yogurt from A2 protein cows. For an even better option, try whole-fat kefir from grass-fed cows, sheep, or goats.

6. Soy protein
Soy protein is a cheap, heavily processed protein found in many foods. It negatively affects your gut and liver. Opt for whole protein sources such as meat, eggs, fish, and seafood.

7. Modified starches
Starches are chains of sugars, often used as fillers. Starches cause a more significant spike in blood sugar than sugar! Consume natural starch from butternut squash, beets, plantains, and purple potatoes.

Basically, people SHOULD NOT eat anything with a label listing ingredients. It's very simple. I follow this approach successfully 🥰🥰🥰

[donnananar]

I am cancer survivor twice, thanks to you, Dr. Berg, I am happy, and healthy today, because of you! God bless you, and your beautiful family always!🙏🏻❤️

After following Dr Berg for one and half year, I quit eating all these poisons. My waist reduced from 36 to 30, and no more shortness of breath and high blood pressure. Thanks!

Maybe the best video you've ever produced because America allows in food what Europe outlaws!

[rander]

I've always been very conscious of what I eat (since I was 20 yrs old; I'm 75 now), but since watching Dr. Berg's videos, I've become far better at choosing foods that are healthy, minimizing my sugar intake, avoiding seed oils, and so forth. Thank you, Dr. Berg.

[helpinyerdasellavon]

"You don't need to refrigerate it. What does that tell you?" That's spot on, Dr Berg 🎯

[muhammadtaha]

May God protect Dr. Berg. He is a global asset.

Don’t stop! You have been helping me gain better health since 2018.
Thank you 💜💜💜

What’s nice about Zevia is that they filter it and then test it to make sure there’s 0 ppm of chemicals like fluoride, chlorine etc

It's saddening, scary that some of these foods are sold in the so called Health Food Stores!

My health started to deteriorate some 25 years ago. Age my doctor said. Some 15 years I go I was diagnosed with Diabetes 2. Take these pills, my doctor said.
Then take more pills, he said. In the mean time I was eating nachos dipped in melted velveta fake cheese. Then 15 month ago I got numb toes, my doctor prescribed me Xanax, this will make you feel better, he said.
I went home, never filled the prescription and started educating myself. I learned, that all my life, the food industry is trying to kill me. Of course they must know their products are dangerous to my health. I knew all my life about the dangers of cigarettes and alcohol, but not about the dangers of Trans-Fat, Seed-Oils, Fructose, refined carbohydrates e.t.c.
And the entire healthcare industry is complicit with the food industry, because NO DOCTOR EVER told me that these foods will kill me.

I'm a teenager who's currently looking into the food I eat, I started substituting out the unhealthy chips into healthier ones that won't burn my stomach. Even though I barely munch on snacks anymore, I am more interested in eating proper meals. Like eggs, lean meat, and other stuff I can think are healthy. You're a teacher and a model for healthy eating, and I recommend you to other people around my age!

[CherieSchnelle]

Everything in moderation. My problem is that I don't do moderation well!!! God bless everyone. Love and be happy. Be kind and do your best to eat healthy. Love above all.

Homemade mayo is the best and super easy to make! It's avocado oil and an egg. ❤️ Lots of recipes and instructions to make it on Pinterest.

[ruthsamaroo]

What can I say?
1. Never knew this about "concentrate." No more for me.
2. I used olive oil mayonnaise thinking it was good. No more for me. I did check, and as Dr. Berg said it does contain other oils. How sneaky is that!
3. Protein bars- shocking for a supposedly "healthy" snack.
4.Flavored yogurt- never knew. Scrap that from my list.
My grocery shopping is taking longer. But it's worth it.
Unfortunately for me when I remain in air-conditioned buildings longer than 90 mins I get terrible body pains.
Thank you very much Dr. Berg. I look forward to your videos every day because I am learning so much.
Greetings from Trinidad. 🇹🇹🇹🇹

So glad you have our back Dr. Burg. Thank you👍❤️🙏

Years ago my mother, saddled with 13 children (his, hers, & theirs), wanted to raise healthy children. Adell Davis books became her Bible, as well as Life Extension. As a result she instilled in me the goal of eating healthy and learning constantly as to how to maintain my health. At 72 I watch people my age dying all around me, crippled with endless ailments. Though I do have age related issues and a weight problem I’ve had my entire life, my life has improved greatly and am by far healthier after I learned much about what you are teaching. I fully expect to live to 90 or there abouts and maybe even longer. My mom died at 88 and probably would have lived longer were it not for a prolapsed heart valve only discovered in the last couple years of her life and diabetes 2 which is related to stress and infections. She ended up with a systemic E. coli infection. Knowing what we are learning now from the likes of you, I often wonder just how long she would have lived if we’d known much of this sooner. Thank you so much for all the knowledge you share. From this video I realize I’m doing pretty good at eating healthy despite the industries that want us sick. Bless you and all you do. ❤
