What will happen if you cut sugar out of your diet for thirty days? Let’s talk about it.
Metabolic flexibility is a term used to describe how smoothly and efficiently your cells can adapt to utilize and burn fuel like fat, ketones, or glucose.
When you’re metabolically inflexible, this transition is very dysfunctional. Your ability to burn fat in a fasting state will be very difficult. If you can’t lose weight when fasting or exercising, this could be why.
Metabolic inflexibility can lead to diabetes, obesity, loss of muscle protein, and chronic illnesses. It can also cause irritability, fatigue, anxiety, and hunger. When you try to fast, you won’t feel very good, and you’ll miss out on certain benefits if you’re not metabolically flexible.
Insulin resistance is at the heart of this problem. Insulin controls whether you burn fat or not. If someone is metabolically inflexible, they have insulin resistance. Insulin tells the body not to burn fat and to store fat instead.
On the flip side, metabolic flexibility is really insulin sensitivity, and there are ways to make the body more metabolically flexible or insulin sensitive.
When you become more metabolically flexible, you’ll be able to fast for longer without hunger or cravings, burn fat, and burn sugar more efficiently.
How to transition your body into a state of metabolic flexibility and insulin sensitivity:
1. Eat less frequently
2. Eat fewer carbohydrates
3. Eat sufficient amounts of fat, but not excessive amounts of fat
4. Try exercise snacking (do short bouts of exercise throughout the day)
If you do these things for thirty days, it could have a significant positive impact on improving your metabolic flexibility and your overall health.

Thank you Doc. I have been experiencing what seems like reactive hypoglycemia after big holiday meals, I’m a pretty healthy weight and exercising a little bit weekly. But I’ll try the snacking exercise thing. I need more fiber and less carbs too lol
Спасибо доктор Берг !)
Carbs KILL !! As soon as I dropped them to less than 10 grams a day, my energy level way up and I just felt better. No crash after a meal.❤❤
Dr. Berg comes with it every time!
I learn something every time I watch you. I’m trying to develop a exercise program. I have had 5 spinal fusions ( all at the same time) . I have lost 115 pounds since my peel weight of 340 pounds. I am 6’3. I developed type two diabetes 4 years ago when I retired from my career and started driving truck over the road. I had a stroke two years ago. That left me with a fifty percent vision loss in each eye. I learn to walk again after a year and a half. I’ve been on once a week Trueicity and pills. I have not lost any weight in the last 10 months but I haven’t gained any either. My question is how can I get my metabolism going when I can walk anymore then 100 yards at a time? I guess I just have to take more pain meds and keep pushing? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!! Thanks!
If you can, get a rehab physio to help you. It is very difficult when you can’t use your legs (wheelchair here) to burn calories. A handcycle is very helpful to get your heart rate up.
@@Kylie-oz3ks Thank you so much. That never crossed my mined❤️❤️❤️
Did you have the mrna injection?
It’s interesting, back in college I’d do sprint interval training 2 days per week. Maybe 5-6 bouts total. Primarily did resistance training. When it got time to do a VO2max test in our exercise physiology, I dominated the class trials even against the soccer players and runners. For it to work, you do have to give maximum effort, this tolerance for effort takes time but it’ll pay off because you’ll start to feel amazing.
Thank you Doc Berg for taking time to help to all of us to improve our health
After 3 months recovering from a fractured foot, I bought a home treadmill and do 30 minute walking sessions 2 times a day. I struggle with sugar craving and insulin resistance but because of this “exercise snacking,” I’m already seeing a big difference! My sugar cravings have minimized significantly in only a short amount of time. Your informative video helped me realize the mechanics behind this thank you Dr. Berg!
I’m glad your on your way to recovery , after your foot surgery 🥂
The only way to eliminate sugar cravings is to quit sugar completly.

Sugar cravings are the worst! Look into Chromium
Injury set me back too. But, I’m bound and determined to get back on track. Congratulations
I’m on carnivore diet, almost 30 days now, lost over 8 kilos so far, took about 2 weeks to get rid of sugar cravings. Interesting thing is that i used to eat loads of cheese, however, after the sugar cravings passed, i really didn’t crave for cheese either. First i did OMAD, but now i’ve changed it to 1-2 meals a day, noticed that i started losing more weight after changing to 2MAD. After sugar cravings passed, my sleep got much better too, energy levels super high during the day, can easily fast for 1-2 days. Also 0% veggies. Using vitamin supplements. Also used to drink lot of coffee and energy drinks, now i don’t drink energy drinks at all and very little coffee, maybe 1-3 times a week. If i eat something besides eggs and meat i keep carbs intake less than 20g a day. I still drink milk and tea and also use all kinds of herbs and spices with food, but i make sure that none of those are “premade mixes” that contain sugar. I’m almost 45yo, weighted 93-ish kilos before starting carnivore. Weight today is 84-85-ish kilos. Happy New Year.
Yeah this sounds almost EXACTLY like what I’ve done. Been about 3.5 months now and there’s no going back to the garbage food. I dabbled with some of the family favorites for the holiday and the way I felt the next day (horrible and dehydrated) really sealed the deal for me. Cheers
We called it Indian running back in the 70s. During track practice, the entire team would run single file. The person at the back would sprint to the front, then take over the pacing until the next leader sprinted up. Very effective for endurance.
Omg I remember that now! I wasn’t a fast runner and always dreaded when it was my turn to sprint ahead. 🏃🏼♀️
I have actually had my girl’s soccer team do this during practices.
I’m now 197 days into my sugar/carbs/gluten/seed oils detox. I am 68 pounds down and feeling amazing. Ketogenic/Carnivore is the way to true freedon. Happy New Year Dr Berg and all of you guys. Peace and love to all 🙂
Good for you, that is quite a weight loss.
Congratulations on your achievements! My goal is to eliminate all sugar from my diet as well. I didn’t realize how addicted to sugar I really was. I’m diabetic, have been for about 7 years. I have found myself skipping supper just so I could have a bowl of icecream. I’m also disabled which makes it hard for me to exercise. But I am determined to do this….. I really am. 😔
you are in caloric deficit.
👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💪🏼😁

Thank you Dr Berg!🐱👍
I’m doing great without sugar and carbs
I’m not hungry. Working on longer fasting. Your videos are sooo helpful special after the holidays. Clothes are falling off. Have to use a belt. Not so depressed. Working on my excersise.Thank you Dr. Berg
I am happy for you. I’m am doing the same and I feel absolutely great. Thanks again Dr Berg…
Thank you for this wonderful information, Dr Berg. When I was in a high refined carbs and sugar diet I could never fast, I had to have doughnuts or cake everyday. Now I’m enjoying healthy Keto meals in modest portions and desserts while doing IF, cravings are not as they used to be. Your continuous educational support is always appreciated 🙏🏻
This video couldn’t come at a better time. I am 41 and struggling with a couple of health issues, so I made a promise to myself beginning yesterday that I would eliminate ALL refined/processed sugars. Then Dr. Berg drops this video 😍. Thank you Dr. Berg! You have done more for me (and millions of others) than ANY other Dr. could ever dream of. Much love and respect to you kind Sir. Eric Berg: The People’s Doctor!!!

Cancer feeds off of sugar. When my sweet husband had cancer we learned this. I’ve always been attracted to salt. But now 2024 I have drawn a line in the sand to limit sugar. My Grandchildren will always have cookies. God bless you Dr Berg.
What a perfectly timed video. Just 4 days into quitting sugar and just wanting the scale to go down. Thank you Dr. Berg for telling me what I need to do.
First of all Happy new year sir, Thanks for making this amazing value filled video for the new year, direct with straight to the point like always. God bless you, you are doing beyond amazing work in these times of big pharma and goverments feeding folks toxic food and setting up silent killer regime.
