You guys are GREAT. What a fabulous video.

I gave up sugar about four months ago and it is the BEST thing I have ever done.

Thanks for spreading the word.

the first and last time I ate an Oreo I was three years old. My mom said I literally spit it out and I never ate one since and I'm 34 now. I don't even keep sugar in my house much less sugar substitutes. I also look at ice cream as frozen lard. BARFVILLE!

Make sure you replace your magnesium and calcium. because sugar makes you deplete it.

You know what, its funny, after I stopped eating sugar and a whole lot of carbs I was used to eating, I stopped smoking as well. It was SO much easier to kick the smoking habit. Odd, isn't it?

I think its because sugar make you feel like S#%T , so you smoke to alleviate such symptoms. I talk by myself, sice Ive started Low Carb I feel way better.

same neurotransmitters, sugar and cigarrettes are stimulants, they both pep up addicts and crash them, and keep you and your brain in an addicted state.

you guys are so anous about sugar the problem is not eating sugar... is eating too much of it. p.s.: sweetners make you gain more weight than regular sugar.

THANKS for your comment, but I'm speaking from personal experience. Sugar is at the root cause of not just obesity, but also many diseases because of the rise in blood sugar and insulin that occur when you consume it. I've never had an issue with this while eating alternative sweeteners. In fact, they helped me lose 180 pounds and vastly improve my health.

Uhhh, what?

the only advantage of sugar over other drugs is that its easy to quit sugar if you enter ketosis , ( there´s nothing like this to work against cocaine addiction or herion addiction ) so once you´re in Ketosis you´re saved from this addiction. if you´re not on ketosis, forget about it. the cravings are absolutely irresistible.

zegonzales 3 years ago

but I felt I still need these carbs to do a high intensity activity, aside from that I´d see sugar just like cigar , alcohol or tobacco, a drink twice a month won´t kill anyone, but if you take it everyday you know its no good, really, its an addictive drug, potentially deadly, sugar is EXACTLY the same, additive, potentially deadly and harmful ( after all, diabetes is a very serious health condition ).people who quit drugs prefer to see it as rat poison and that´s a good position too.

zegonzales 3 years ago

are basically empty callories as much as sugar a,d cookies are. so I see sugar mostly as a "recreational drug" , if you use it more than 2 times a month or so, you´ll get trouble. I understand your radical position against sugar, I could have this position too. I suffer from a type of masked depression for almost 15 years, and when I started Atkins, my symptoms suffered a dramatic improvement to the point that I was about to totally give up sugar, at least for a while.

zegonzales 3 years ago

But I can understad what you say about sugar being poison. I still use sugar for sport ( weight lift ) only, and I consider processesed sugar as maybe a drug like cocaine or tobacco. I don´t smoke anything, but I know some people who smoke tobacco or marijuana from times to times and they can cope with that. but will it do any good to your body, NO , and that´s the same with sugary foods , and others like bread and pasta too. interesting thing on how doctors innocent bread and pasta yet both are

No Matter what AMA says, with the world wide epidemic Obesity, Atkins and Low Carb will only get more and more popular. because results are been shoun to everybody, people can speak for themselves on internet, check out the still most popular Atkins weight loss video, I don´t know the name of the guy, but he used to be on army and years latter was absurdely overweight "My Atkins Diet Story".

tulinhu2 3 years ago

That's my good buddy Kent Altena (bowulf) you are talking about. He and I started on the Atkins diet about the same time and both lost about the same amount of weight. He is AMAZING!

livinlowcarbman 3 years ago

and aside from this sport usage I think suger is not needed , I don´t see it as rat poison, but let´s say, like a drug, like alcohol for example. its somwehat fun, but it should be kept to a minimal quantity, or it will ruin you. Most users of Atkins I know "cheat" the diet from time to time, but its different from eating this stuff every day. and yes, it IS addictive. Atkins e´xplains that on showing the addiction the insulin spikes causes on the sugar eater.

tulinhu2 3 years ago

And that's exactly why I have to avoid it like rat poison, tulinhu2! GREAT COMMENTS!

livinlowcarbman 3 years ago

I wouldn´t call sugar rat poison, but its certainly the thing we should care about the most on food. Im on a low carb diet and initially felt sugar was "rat poison" too, but I usually use "carb loadings" on lifting days ( only 2 lifting days a week ) and I feel its not really possible to do a decent work out without ... sugar ...

THANKS for sharing your comments zegonzales. I encourage you to pick up THE TNT DIET by Adam Campbell and Dr. Jeff Volek to learn why eating sugar as part of your weight lifting routine is archaic thinking. THANK YOU again for your feedback.

is different then the sugar thats used in products for most foods, so if you balance all that it works wonders, diet is a major part of people its how you eat and how much. Even vitamins are poisonous if over consumed.

Even fatty foods are good for you under certian circumstances any way good luck. Remember watch the calories too; but not as much as carbs those go directly into fat if not used immediately or directed by the body to be used. Good luck man.

Great comments Deatonis!!! :D

livinlowcarbman 3 years ago

awesome thing man and i see you respond to your viewers, im a diabetic and i agree entirely with this. Its also the amount of sugar in products, you see it takes alot to get a few gram or sugar, when people bake its normally several times lower cholesterol, sugar and etc then what stores do; they put it out their ti make profit so obviously its gotta be sugary. But id also argue its how you deal with it, you should mix your sugar intake, fruit sugars and real plant sugars (not sugar cane) ---

Deatonis 3 years ago

lol how I got over it was I actually said goodbye too the foods one by one.
