Podcasts about Fructose

 This report will shock you… I have done my research. I looked videos for 3 hours (see links at the end) from the best sources, most the things are sciences proved. Except, I add the wisdom of the Chinese medical system to complete my research. A.) Finally, it is proved that our guts are the second brain in our body….B.) We gain leaky guts through Western Food or nonvegetarian unhealthy food. And through the leaky guts, we can get: 1.) Anxiety2.) Depression3.) Autism4.) Dementia5.) And our brain will be damaged over a long time…. Gut-brain connection part 2C.) Love heals our guts and reduces our stress.D.) Gluten-free diet.E.) No snacks!!!F.) Probiotic and Healthy Lactic acid (bacteria).G.) The legendary dangerous Candida fungus.H.) No alcohol.I.) How to produce the most healthy yogurt with the best bacteria?A.) Our gut work independent from our brain…Our gut is controlling our complete digestion, this means liver, stomach, gallbladder, and pancreas.In our gut, we have 100 of sensors, and they report to our brain…When we eat drugs, our gut tells that our brain… or get influenced … And even our fast food can cause depression.The toxic in our gut influences our thinking and feelings.Autism, anxiety, and depressive behaviors can come from unhealthy bacteria in our gut.Any drug/medicaments can have a negative influence on our feelings and thoughts through our gut-brain connection…Our fears can trigger our bowels to release our excrete…If we over-analyze, then we get constipation and can't excrete… Stress shut up our small intestines, and so our digestion will not work correctly. Proverb:Trust your gut feelings…If we get some sensations/ vibrations in our guts, we can check if this is related to things that we desire… Our guts are related to the subconsciousness and super-consciousness (intuition)…For Asian are the bowels a second brain.- We should think more with our gut instead to analyze with our mind.For the Tao or Qigong, the guts are the battery that we can charge with energy. And if we do so, we have much more power and focus on the things that we want. With our gut, we can heal our body;- if we apply for instance Qigong.B.) Leaky GutIn our colon, we have healthy and unhealthy bacteria and organism. Through unhealthy food and Stress, we kill the healthy bacteria and increase the harmful bacteria and organism in our gut.If we would eat a vegetarian diet based on :1.) Fruits and vegetable,2.) non-gluten, (I explain later)3.) no white sugar, 4.) and low fat. 5.)The best are: Broccoli sprouts kills these ((H-Pylori or Lipopolysaccharide, I explain later). Or mother breast milk.We could even heal leaky gut and kill the dangerous organism and bacteria in our gut with this healthy diet.When we eat unhealthy food like : 1.) Corn syrup.2.) White sugar.3.) Fructose syrup.4.) Peanut butter.5.) Meat, fish, poultry.6.) Industrially processed food.7.) Fast food.8.) An average Western food based on high fat, low fiber increase to 71% the chance of leaky gut.We will get leaky guts over the time through this food.Leaky guts are caused when the lining of the small intestine becomes damaged by unhealthy organism and bacteria. Through leaky gut undigested food particles, toxic waste products, unhealthy bacteria, and organism to "leak" through the intestines and flood the bloodstream.Over the blood, the unhealthy bacteria and organism reach our brain and damage or influence it. In our brain, we have a Blood Barrier that protects the brain from unhealthy bacteria and organism. If the harmful organism (H-Pylori or Lipopolysaccharide) from the Colon/stomach go in the blood and break the Blood Barrier of the brain (Protection of the brain against unhealthy bacteria), the harmful bacteria can enter the brain and damage it.25% of Americans are suffering from mental disorder/diseases like depression, anxiety Autisms…36% of autism have leaky guts, Through the leaky gut, we can get:1.) Anxiety.2.) Depressive symptoms.3.) Cognitive deficits.4.) And in the end, our brain gets damaged.It is easy to see that this fits many old people…MicrobiomeFor instance, a baby got antibiotic for an ear inflammation and afterward showing signs of autisms. Again they gave the baby antibiotics, and the autism disappeared… After the first treatment of antibiotic, unhealthy bacteria came in the Colon and changed the behavior of the baby… And today, it is proved if we inject in a rat specific harmful bacteria, the rat gets depression,…Our gut produces also the vitamin B12.Stress is the worst!Through stress, the small intestines are shutting down and can't function properly to absorb the nutrition and to produce vitamin B12. Even more under stress the unhealthy bacteria and organism increase. If we eat a wide variety of anything, our digest system gets confused, and so the small intestines can't work correctly….Eat simple dishes and don't look for a variety. The stomach also has very much influence on the healthy gut flora… The acid of the stomach should be PH2.If our stomach is over PH2 (less acid), it can't kill most of all unhealthy bacteria and organism… When you reduce with soda the acid of the stomach, the unhealthy bacteria and organism like H-Pylori can enter the small intestines and can go so in the blood. My Video: Gut-brain connection part 1 https://youtu.be/kzSqBzwIarMMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/Gut-brain-connection-part-2.mp3

Send us a textShort Summary: How dietary fructose affects the growth rate of cancer.About the guest: Gary Patti, PhD is a professor at Washington University in St. Louis, holding appointments in chemistry, medicine, and geneticsNote: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and everyone on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere. Full transcript and other information on Substack.Episode Summary: Nick Jikomes talks to Dr. Patti, exploring how cancer cells metabolize sugars like glucose and fructose, focusing on a recent study showing fructose indirectly boosts tumor growth in mice via liver-produced lipids called LPCs. The discussion covers cancer biology basics, Warburg effect, tumor microenvironments, and systemic metabolic impacts of cancer, while also touching on dietary implications, fasting, and the complexities of nutrient use in cancer progression.Key Takeaways:Cancer cells often rely heavily on glucose, excreting it as lactate even when oxygen is available (Warburg effect), but take up more than their mitochondria can handle.In a study, high fructose diets accelerated tumor growth in mice by 4x, not because cancer cells use fructose directly, but because the liver converts it to LPCs, which tumors use to build membranes.Tumors are not just cancer cells; they recruit healthy cells in their microenvironment, and their metabolic effects ripple across the entire body, altering distant tissues.Excessive fructose consumption may worsen tumor growth, but cutting it poses little risk and could benefit cancer patients, pending human studies.Fasting may reduce cancer initiation risk in animals, but its effect on existing tumors is less clear and could worsen wasting (cachexia) in late stages.The body tightly regulates blood glucose via the liver, so simply cutting dietary glucose won't starve tumors, highlighting cancer's metabolic adaptability.Related episode:M&M #200: Dietary Fats & Seed Oils in Inflammation, Colon CancerSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, etc. at the M&M Substack Affiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

Find out how to lose visceral fat by avoiding the 6 foods that prevent belly fat loss. In this video, I'm going to tell you what NOT to eat to lose belly fat. Avoid these foods if you want a flat stomach!Visceral fat surrounds the organs and keeps your body in a state of inflammation, preventing fat loss. Avoid these 6 foods that prevent fat loss. 1. Low-fat yogurtLow-fat yogurt is typically high in sugar and often contains industrial food starches like modified food starch, modified corn starch, or maltodextrin. Starch is not sweet, so people consume much more than sugar. It's higher on the glycemic index than sugar and is used to add bulk to a product. 2. Processed meat Hot dogs contain industrial sugars such as corn syrup that will spike blood sugar. Adding sugar to meat creates advanced glycated proteins. Organic grass-fed beef hot dogs are a good option!3. Atkins products These products are marketed as low-carb and keto-friendly but contain very low-quality ingredients such as soy protein isolates, seed oils, GMOs, and synthetic fibers. These can cause bloating and diarrhea and also prevent fat loss.5. Juice Many products marketed as “juice” often only contain minimal amounts of fruit juice and have high amounts of sweeteners, such as high-fructose corn syrup. Juice from concentrate is devoid of nutrients. Fructose found in fruit juice can only be broken down by the liver, which can contribute more to a fatty liver than glucose. 6. Agave nectar This sweetener seems healthy but is very high in fructose, which is hard on the liver. Coconut sugar and honey are better options but should be avoided when focusing on fat loss. 7. MayonnaiseProcessed mayo is mainly composed of soy oil. This type of fat is stored in the fat cells and isn't burned by the body as quickly as saturated fat. Seed oils like soy oil may be at the root of chronic disease.

Story at-a-glance Glucose and fructose, two simple sugars, behave differently in your body. Glucose provides quick energy while fructose goes directly to your liver Fructose in whole fruits is paired with fiber and nutrients that slow absorption, while processed fructose like high-fructose corn syrup flood your liver with sugar Excessive fructose consumption leads to de novo lipogenesis in the liver, resulting in fat buildup and an increased risk of fatty liver disease Processed sugars, unlike whole fruits, create rapid blood sugar spikes that put stress on insulin production and increases the risk of metabolic issues Consuming whole fruits with natural sugars supports a healthier metabolism by delivering fiber, water, and antioxidants that balance sugar absorption

In this episode, we welcome back Nick Norwitz for Part 2 of our deep dive into metabolism, food addiction, and dietary nuances. We cover everything from broken metabolisms to the role of hormones in weight regulation, the impact of glycemic load, and the ongoing debate about fruit, dairy, olive oil, and the carnivore diet. If you've ever wondered about food science versus food fear-mongering, this is the episode for you! Key Topics Discussed: 1. Understanding “Broken Metabolism” The difference between metabolic dysfunction and metabolic perception. The role of insulin and other hormones in fat storage and hunger regulation. Why glycemic load matters more than calorie counting in weight loss. The importance of patience in metabolic healing, especially after years of processed food consumption. 2. Why Weight Loss Can Plateau Metabolic adaptation and how fat cells retain memory. How food labels can be misleading and the importance of tracking glycemic response. The role of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) in fine-tuning nutrition choices. 3. Fruit and the Fear of Fructose Debunking the myth that all fructose is bad. How the small intestine processes fructose before it reaches the liver. The importance of context: different fruits have different effects on blood sugar. Recommendations for lower-glycemic fruits, such as berries, for those with insulin resistance. 4. Olive Oil and Muscle Health The role of oleuropein in mitochondrial function and aging muscles. How olive leaf extract might help improve muscle metabolism. The importance of choosing high-quality olive oil for maximum benefit. 5. Dairy and Cardiovascular Health New research showing that cheese may actually reduce cardiovascular disease risk. Why saturated fat in dairy is not necessarily harmful. The importance of individual tolerance—some people thrive on dairy, while others find it triggering. 6. The Carnivore Diet: Is It Right for You? Carnivore as an elimination diet rather than a meat-only ideology. How some people experience relief from autoimmune and gut health issues by eliminating plant foods. Why sustainability and long-term adherence matter more than short-term results. Key Takeaways: Metabolic health is adaptable: Your body can heal, but patience and consistency are key. Fruit isn't the enemy: Choose fruits wisely based on your metabolic health and glycemic response. Whole foods matter: The effects of food go beyond macros—consider nutrient density and processing. Individualization is key: Whether it's carnivore, keto, or Mediterranean, the best diet is the one that works for you.

This week we get to unlock the secret to better health with Dr. Richard Johnson, a leading mind in the field of sugar metabolism, as he reveals the hidden dangers of fructose and its surprising role in metabolic diseases. Dive into the science of sugars and uncover the biological mechanisms that make fructose a stealthy culprit for obesity. While fruits like dates and figs may seem harmless, their high fructose content is a concern, especially when consumed in juices. Dr. Johnson demystifies the connection between sugar and fat storage, and why the body mistakenly believes it's low on energy, leading to weight gain.Explore the fascinating interplay between fructose, salt, and carbohydrates, and learn how these elements influence blood pressure and metabolic health. Discover why a low-carb or keto diet might be your best defense against the adverse effects of salt and uric acid. We also navigate the world of sugar substitutes, with a spotlight on allulose, a promising alternative. We also discuss Dr. Johnson's informative book  "Nature Wants Us to Be Fat" for further reading on this critical healthcare topic.https://drrichardjohnson.com/ (20% off using DrLufkin20): https://rxsugar.com/discount/DrLufkin20Free sample chapter -Lies I Taught In Medical School :https://www.robertlufkinmd.com/lies/Our sponsors: Siphox Health, at-home health testing (15% off):https://pathlongevity.com/Prolon & the Fasting Mimicking Diet (20% off ):https://prolonlife.com/Lufkin *** CONNECT***Web: https://robertlufkinmd.com/X: https://x.com/robertlufkinmdYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/robertLufkinmdInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/robertlufkinmd/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertlufkinmd/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/robertlufkinmd Threads: https://www.threads.net/@robertlufkinmdBluesky: https://bsky.app/profi...

Dr. Robert Lustig joins Buck to discuss the alarming state of metabolic health in America, where only 7% of the population is considered metabolically healthy. He breaks down metabolic dysfunction, linking it primarily to mitochondrial inefficiency, and explains how sugar—especially fructose—plays a major role in various health issues. The conversation explores the dangers of ultra-processed foods, identifying key contributors to metabolic dysfunction, including excessive sugar, insufficient fiber, and emulsifiers in processed foods. Dr. Lustig also examines the impact of hyperinsulinemia, the effects of fructose on liver health, and the role of branched-chain amino acids in metabolism. Beyond diet, he highlights the importance of understanding how insulin, amino acids, and mitochondrial function influence overall metabolic health. The discussion touches on inflammation, the challenges of making healthy choices in grocery stores, and the pros and cons of different diets, including ketogenic and carnivore diets. Lustig also underscores the significance of fasting insulin as a key marker of metabolic dysfunction and explores how nutraceuticals can support mitochondrial health.

Understanding glucose and fructose metabolism within the cell and the effect each substrate has on ATP, the energy currency, is not just for advanced horse owners. This knowledge is crucial to anyone caring for horses as it explains why Equine Metabolic Syndrome, Insulin resistance or dysregulation, misbehaving issues, and a generalized unwillingness are prevalent in every aspect of the horse industry. Fructose is not just a dietary component but also produced in mammals through the Polyol Pathway. Its purpose is to prepare the horse for challenging times like winter. However, when produced throughout the year, fructose metabolism leads to depleted energy within the cell, increased cellular and body inflammation, body fat production, and heightened hunger and aggressive behavior. These are serious issues that every horse owner should be aware of and motivated to address. Exercise is a key player in reducing the effects of fructose metabolism, but it's not always feasible for many horses. However, controlling fructose intake and the triggers that convert glucose into fructose are practical, effective solutions that every horse owner can and should implement, empowering them to take control of their horse's health. ********** TheHorsesAdvocate.com is a website for learning about horses, horse barns, and farms.

Welcome to this crucial podcast, where I introduce a concept that is not just limited to humans but also affects animals: the ability to convert glucose into fructose within the body. This process is significant as it can have detrimental effects on cells, leading to a range of health and behavioral issues in animals, including horses.  While the chronic metabolic effects of fructose may seem negative (obesity, cognitive decline, inflammation, decreased cell metabolism, and cell death), they serve a survival purpose for animals during times of food scarcity, such as winter. However, in today's world, where sweet-tasting foods rich in fructose are readily available to horses year-round, these effects can lead to serious health issues, including obesity, behavioral problems, illness, and lameness. The goal of upcoming podcasts is to break up the information on fructose production and metabolism into small, digestible chunks so that all of you listening will quickly understand why fructose, fed or made year-round, causes many problems in our horses. Part 1 introduces the novel thought that horses can make fructose. In the upcoming episodes, I will delve deeper into how glucose becomes fructose, the triggers causing it, and how fructose metabolism lowers energy and drives the degradation of the body. ********** TheHorsesAdvocate.com is a website for learning about horses, horse barns, and farms.

High Fructose Corn Syrup's Profits over Health:  Richard Gale & Gary Null PhD Progressive Radio Network, July 24, 2024 There is an unseen culprit hiding in the shadows. It is a toxic poison contained in many of the foods and beverages that we commonly eat. A toxin that has been implicated in causing cancer, diabetes, heart disease, lowered cognitive function, addiction, depression, and obesity. The magicians and alchemists of the corporate food industry have cleverly disguised this ingredient and sing its praises.  If you are waiting for mainstream media to undertake an in-depth investigative report on this topic you will be waiting a long time. Back in 2015 Tufts University's department of nutritional sciences conducted a study published by the American Heart Association that documented the annual rates of global deaths directly due to over-consumption of beverages with high sugar content. The results estimated that 184,000 adults die annually from sugary drinks.  Dr. Gitanjali at Tufts analyzed data documenting sugar-related deaths across 51 countries between 1980 and 2010.  Deaths were compiled according to cardiovascular disease, diabetes and various cancers. Based upon the data, the study concluded that sugar contributed to 45,000 annual deaths from cardiovascular disease, 13,000 deaths from diabetic complications, and 6,450 deaths related to cancer.  Credit Suisse's Research Institute published a scathing report that brought sugar's health risks into sharper focus.  The study revealed that upward to 40% of American healthcare expenditures could be directly tied to overconsumption of sugar in the average American diet.  Today, the US' national addiction to sugar contributes to $1 trillion in healthcare costs annually, which includes coronary heart disease, diabetes and metabolic syndrome. There are numerous studies published in reliable peer-reviewed medical journals associating sugar with each of these life threatening diseases. As far back as 1971, I began writing about the hazards of sugar. In 2002, my documentary Seven Steps to Perfect Health was premiered on PBS stations. During a special appearance on one station's fund drive, I poured sugar out of a bag. The amount I poured equaled the number of teaspoons that an average American teenager consumes daily. My general counsel, David Slater, verified the quantity by proper measurement according to scientific food and diet data.  After the initial airing of this special, I was informed by the station's program director that they could not rebroadcast the performance, even though it was the most successful program during the fund drive. I was informed that the station had received harsh criticism from the sugar industry. The program director explained that the information I presented about sugar's dangers, even though I provided full scientific verification of the facts, ran up against the president of the station board Sharon Rockefeller. I was told she had received a phone call from a sugar-lobbying group representing soft drink makers and sugar manufacturers.  Therefore the station made the decision to pull my program. I was never asked to return to the station. Not surprisingly, a subsequent investigation revealed Sharon Rockefeller sat on Pepsi's board at the time, one of America's largest manufacturers of sweetened soft drinks.    That was my first personal encounter with the political forces supporting sugar. I wrote letters to the sugar industry, the station board and Sharon Rockefeller contesting their suppression of my program and their claim that sugar was unrelated to the declining health of Americans. They were presented with dozens of peer-reviewed studies. However in recent decades, the sweetener industry has undergone a dramatic transformation with the introduction and widespread adoption of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) throughout our food system. This shift from traditional cane sugar, which dominated my criticism earlier, to fructose corn sugars has led to deep human health and environmental concerns due to its economic benefits for food manufacturers.  High fructose corn syrup was developed in the late 1960s by Japanese scientists who discovered a method to convert glucose from cornstarch into fructose using enzymes. This innovation was spurred by the need to find a cheaper and more versatile sweetener as an alternative to the more labor-intensive production of traditional cane sugar. HFCS is made by milling corn to produce cornstarch. The starch is then hydrolyzed into glucose by adding the enzyme alpha-amylase. Finally the glucose is further processed into fructose. The result is a syrup that typically contains 42-55 percent fructose, with the rest being glucose. Some methods can produce fructose as high as 90 percent.  Today, HFCS production has been so optimized that it has become the most cost-effective and efficient means to produce sweeteners. Monsanto's genetically modified Round-Up Ready corn, enabling the use of more toxic herbicides and pesticides, has now made HFCS the cornerstone of the sugar industry.  However, the shift to HFCS has been fundamentally driven by economics and the agro-chemical industry and has absolutely nothing to do with creating a healthier sugar.  Since corn is one of the most extensively cultivated crops in the United States, which is heavily subsidized by the government, it has provided an enormous, inexpensive supply of the raw material needed for HFCS production. In addition, the enzymatic conversion process can result in a high yield of sweetener from a relatively small amount of corn.  HFCS is now a ubiquitous ingredient that permeates our entire modern food supply. Starting in the 1980s, the introduction of HFCS has gradually displaced traditional sweeteners such as natural cane sugar, glucose and honey. According to the USDA, HFCS can cost up to 50% less than cane and other traditional sugars. This cost differential is particularly significant in industries where sweeteners constitute a major portion of production costs such as in soft drinks, artificial fruit juices, sweet baked goods, snack foods and candy, breakfast cereals, condiments and sauces, sweetened dairy products such as yoghurt and ice cream, and a large variety of processed canned and prepared meals. A study published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that HFCS accounts for over 40% increase of caloric sweeteners added to foods and beverages. Having a purview of the distribution of different sugars in the American diet helps to illustrate the dominance of HFCS in the food system. Approximately 45 percent of added sugars in the American diet come from HFCS and an additional 2 percent from pure fructose. Between 35-40 percent of sweeteners derive from sucrose, the common table sugar made from sugarcane and sugar beets -- the latter now being genetically modified. The production process involves crushing the plant material to extract the juice, which is then purified, concentrated, and crystallized to produce table sugar.  Not to be confused with HFCS, corn syrup is largely glucose and represents about 10-15 percent of the nation's sugar intake. It is the most common sugar used in baked goods and candy. Lactose and galactose each account for about 4-5 percent of consumed sugars. However they are typically not added sugars to foods but naturally present in all dairy products.  Finally, honey, which at one time was a common food ingredient, today only accounts for about 1-2 percent of sweeteners.  Moreover, according to FDA testing, a lot of commercial honey found in grocery stores has been adulterated with HFCS and other sweeteners, such sucrose derived from cane and GMO beet sugars and artificial honey-flavored imitators.  A general estimate is that 20-30 percent of honey sold is impure.  Back in the 1970s and 1980s when I frequently railed publicly against the sugar industry and the health risks of processed table sugar that then completely dominated the food industry, I would never have imagined that sucrose would be gradually replaced by HFCS. This replacement accelerated after the emergence of genetically modified (GM) corn. As noted above, the vast majority of HFCS produced in the United States, the world's larger corn producer globally, is derived from genetically modified (GM) corn. Estimates suggest that around 85-90% of the corn grown in the U.S. is genetically modified. Therefore it is reasonable to infer that approximately 85-90% of HFCS is derived from GM corn. As many court cases and exposes of corruption in the agro-chemical industry have cone to light, GM corn has dire implications for the production and consumption of HFCS, especially considering the associated health risks linked to the use of toxic herbicides such as glyphosate. Research has linked glyphosate to various health issues, including cancer. A decade ago, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified glyphosate as a "probable human carcinogen"; today, it is no longer probable but a medical fact. Several studies have detected glyphosate residues in food products containing HFCS. A study published in Environmental Health found glyphosate residues in a variety of food products, highlighting the widespread contamination of the food supply with this herbicide. In addition to glyphosate's carcinogenic potential, the toxin has also been shown to disrupt endocrine function and it has been implicated in gut dysbiosis, an imbalance in the gut microbiome. This disruption can lead to a range of health problems, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and other gastrointestinal disorders. Research published in Current Microbiology indicates that glyphosate exposure can alter the composition of the gut microbiota, leading to adverse health outcomes. HFCS and traditional sugars like table sugar differ significantly in their composition and metabolic effects. Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of equal parts glucose and fructose, while HFCS is a mixture of free glucose and fructose, with the fructose content higher than that in sucrose. This difference in composition affects how the body metabolizes these sugars. Briefly, HFCS poses more serious health risks than sucrose. The free fructose in HFCS is absorbed more rapidly than the bound fructose in sucrose, leading to quicker spikes in blood sugar and insulin levels. In addition, the high fructose content in HFCS places a greater burden on the liver, leading to increased fat production and storage, contributing to fatty liver disease and metabolic disorders. In contrast, the balanced glucose-fructose composition of sucrose is metabolized more evenly, posing lower risks. However, it is crucial to realize that excessive or even moderate consumption of any form of sugar can be detrimental to health. Extensive research has linked the consumption of HFCS to a range of adverse health effects. Key among these is metabolic disorders and cardiovascular diseases. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism found that high consumption of HFCS is associated with an increased risk of developing metabolic syndrome, which includes conditions such as obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. These conditions collectively elevate the risk of heart disease and stroke. HFCS has been directly implicated in America's obesity epidemic due to its high fructose content, which is metabolized differently than glucose. Fructose is primarily processed in the liver, where it can be converted into fat more readily than glucose. This process can lead to increased fat accumulation and insulin resistance, both of which are risk factors for obesity and type 2 diabetes. A study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition highlighted that high HFCS consumption is correlated with an increased risk of obesity and diabetes, particularly in children and adolescents. HFCS intake also leads to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Unlike glucose, which is metabolized by all cells in the body, fructose is metabolized almost entirely in the liver. High levels of fructose overwhelms the liver's capacity to process it, leading to fat accumulation and liver damage. Research published in Hepatology has shown a strong correlation between HFCS consumption and the progression to more severe liver diseases, such as cirrhosis and liver cancer. Recent evidence reveals that HFCS has detrimental effects on cognitive function and mental health. Studies indicate that fructose impairs insulin signaling in the brain, which is crucial for maintaining cognitive functions. A study in the Journal of Physiology found that high-fructose diets can lead to insulin resistance in the brain, potentially increasing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Additionally, high sugar diets, including those high in HFCS, have been linked to mood disorders, such as depression and anxiety, as detailed in a review in Nature Reviews Neuroscience. HFCS and other fructose-rich sugars can have profound adverse effects on the gut and digestive system. These sugars are known to disrupt the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, contributing to various digestive disorders and altering the gut microbiome. Fructose, unlike glucose, is not directly absorbed by the body. It requires a specific transporter, GLUT5, to be taken up by the intestinal cells. Fructose interferes with these transporters, leading to malabsorption. Unabsorbed fructose travels to the large intestine, where it undergoes fermentation by gut bacteria. This process produces gases such as hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and methane, which cause bloating, gas, and abdominal pain leading to malabsorption and the intestine's inability to absorb fructose efficiently. The gut microbiome, a complex community of trillions of microorganisms living in the digestive tract, is crucial for maintaining digestive health, immune function, and overall well-being. High intake of fructose negatively affects this delicate balance. Studies have shown that diets high in fructose can lead to an imbalance in the gut microbiota composition. This imbalance is characterized by a decrease in beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli and an increase in harmful bacteria like Clostridia and Enterobacteria.  A study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that high fructose levels increase intestinal permeability, also known as "leaky gut." This condition allows harmful substances, such as toxins and bacteria, to pass from the gut into the bloodstream, triggering inflammation and contributing to the development of various diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Inflammatory bowel disease, which includes conditions like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is exacerbated by promoting inflammation and altering the gut microbiota. A study in the journal Gut reported that reducing fructose intake improved symptoms in individuals with IBS, suggesting a direct link between fructose consumption and IBS symptom severity. Finally we need to also consider the catastrophic effects of HFCS on children. Children are particularly vulnerable to the health risks associated with HFCS due to their higher consumption levels relative to their body weight. According to data from the CDC, the average American child consumes approximately 12-16 teaspoons of added sugars per day, a significant portion of which comes from HFCS. This high intake is largely driven by the consumption of sweetened beverages, snacks, and processed foods that are marketed specifically to children. The high consumption of HFCS among children is a major contributor to the rising rates of childhood obesity and metabolic disorders. Studies have shown that children who consume high levels of sugary beverages and snacks are more likely to develop obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes. A study published in Pediatrics found that children who consume sugary drinks daily are at a significantly higher risk of developing obesity compared to those who consume them less frequently. There is also growing concern about the impact of HFCS on children's cognitive development and behavior. High sugar diets have been linked to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and other behavioral issues in children. A study in the Journal of Attention Disorders found that excessive sugar consumption, including HFCS, exacerbates symptoms of ADHD and impair cognitive functions such as memory and learning. A deeper look at the politics of the sugar industry reveals that huge sums are being doled out by the government to support and subsidize sugar companies. Writing for the Wall Street Journal, health journalist Alexandra Wexler explains that American taxpayers are currently responsible for shelling out $280 million to cover the cost of loans from the USDA which sugar producers are unable to pay back. Given the undeniable evidence demonstrating the toxicity of HFCS and other commercial sugars and their enormous toll on the wellbeing of Americans, why is it that our health agencies and elected officials are not calling for an urgent overhaul of existing policies, which graciously support the domestic sugar industry to poison the population? Where is the outrage over bailing out the purveyors of what is likely the most dangerous staple in the American diet? For our answers we must follow the money-trail.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Dr. Gil Blander talks with Dr. Robert Lustig, an emeritus professor of pediatrics at UCSF and a renowned neuroendocrinologist. Dr. Lustig dives into the impact of ultra-processed foods and fructose on metabolism, emphasizing how these contribute to obesity and metabolic diseases. He also discusses his journey from academia to public health advocacy, aiming to reform the food industry and reduce chronic diseases.Episode highlights:Introduction: 00:00The Role of Insulin in Obesity and Metabolism 00:08:00The Influence of Big Food Industries on Public Health Policies 00:29:16The Misconception of Dietary Fats 00:40:0The Impact of Stress on Visceral Fat 00:49:27Key Insights:Ultra-processed foods are detrimental to healthUltra-processed foods, especially those high in fructose, have significant negative impacts on metabolic health. These foods contribute to obesity, fatty liver disease, and other chronic conditions by disrupting normal metabolic processes. They are typically high in sugar, low in fiber, and contain many additives and preservatives that harm the body's ability to regulate weight and insulin levels. The NOVA classification system highlights the degree of food processing, showing that the more processed a food is, the more it is associated with metabolic diseases. Consuming minimally processed foods (NOVA 1) is crucial for maintaining good health, as they are free from the harmful additives found in ultra-processed foods.A calorie is not just a calorieThe concept that all calories are equal is misleading. Different types of calories have varying effects on the body. For example, calories from fructose and other sugars can lead to increased fat storage and metabolic problems, unlike calories from whole foods that contain fiber and other nutrients. The body's response to calories depends on factors like insulin response, satiety signals, and the presence of micronutrients. Studies have shown that ultra-processed foods cause people to consume more calories and gain weight compared to non-processed foods, despite having the same caloric content. Understanding this difference is essential for addressing obesity and metabolic diseases.Fructose is a major contributor to fatty liver diseaseFructose, a type of sugar found in many processed foods and sweetened beverages, is a primary driver of fatty liver disease. Unlike glucose, which is metabolized by every cell in the body, fructose is mainly processed by the liver. Excessive consumption of fructose overwhelms the liver's ability to metabolize it properly, leading to the production of fat within the liver. This process, known as de novo lipogenesis, contributes to the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is increasingly common even among children. Limiting the intake of fructose by avoiding sugary drinks and processed foods is crucial for preventing and managing fatty liver disease.Longevity by Design is produced by InsideTracker, your data-driven wellness guide for optimizing your healthspan.

I know, I know, this is a big deviation from our normal content, but this is for the people out there who want to eat carbohydrates in the most healthy way possible. I did NOT approach this in a confrontational way, so think for yourself about the claims make in this show! I have so much respect for Phoebe being willing to talk to our largely low-carb audience! Phoebe Lapine is a Brooklyn-based chef and author of four books, and is the founder of Feed Me Phoebe, an award-winning lifestyle and recipe blog. Being the daughter of a terrific cook and as an only child of two creatives (her father is a Tony-award-winning director and playwright, and her mom is an Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker and screenwriter), she was always encouraged to find her passion. On a personal note, Phoebe is an advocate for autoimmune disease and finding food freedom despite chronic illness. She had been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease (Hashimoto's thyroiditis) and learned that she was very sensitive to gluten. This was pivotal in helping her develop her outlook on wellness, what she calls “healthy hedonism” – that sweet spot where the things that nourish your body overlap with the things that feed your spirit. Her most recent book, CARBIVORE: 130 Healthy Recipes to Stop Fearing Carbs and Embrace the Comfort Foods You Love, is a culinary and dietary road map for making a carb-inclusive diet part of a healthy lifestyle and nutritious meals.

Full Episode: https://youtu.be/-JGzN9XI3OM The video discusses the relationship between different types of carbohydrates, fiber, fat, and glycemic index in affecting energy levels during and after endurance activities like cycling. It explains how fiber slows down the release of carbohydrates into circulation, while fat further delays stomach emptying. Various carbohydrates, such as glucose-based maltodextrin and fructose, have different impacts on energy release due to their processing in the liver. The importance of replenishing liver glycogen stores, particularly with fructose-based carbohydrates post-exercise, is highlighted to avoid energy crashes. The discussion navigates nuances of glycemic index, fat burning, and optimal carbohydrate intake, offering practical tips like consuming high-glycemic index foods post-exercise for quick energy replenishment. The conversation also touches upon the use of sugary snacks like Haribo for rapid recovery, with cautions against excessive consumption. Overall, it emphasizes the need for strategic carbohydrate intake tailored to specific exercise phases and goals.

Fructose and its byproduct uric acid may play a role in the development of Alzheimer's, thanks to an evolutionary adaptation hijacked by the modern diet. Fructose can be directly consumed, or the body can convert high-glycemic carbohydrates and other foods to fructose. Fructose suppresses some cognitive functions. Dr. Richard Johnson and Dr. Rob Lustig discuss a new study, of which Johnson was an author, on how fructose may be a potential driver in Alzheimer's, and they hypothesize about fructose's potential connection to the development of other conditions.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Robert Lustig, M.D., neuroendocrinologist, professor of pediatrics at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), and a bestselling author on nutrition and metabolic health. We address the “calories in- calories out” (CICO) model of metabolism and weight regulation and how specific macronutrients (protein, fat, carbohydrates), fiber and sugar can modify the CICO equation. We cover how different types of sugars, specifically fructose, a sugar found in liquids, taste intensity, and other factors impact insulin levels, liver, kidney, and metabolic health. We also explore how fructose in non-fruit sources can be addictive (acting similarly to drugs of abuse) and how sugar alters brain circuits related to food cravings and satisfaction. We discuss the role of sugar in childhood and adult obesity, gut health and disease and mental health. We also discuss how the food industry uses refined sugars to create pseudo foods and what these do to the brain and body. This episode is replete with actionable information about sugar and metabolism, weight control, brain health and body composition. It ought to be of interest to anyone seeking to understand how specific food choices impact the immediate and long-term health of the brain and body.
