Today, we’re going to talk about the carbohydrate that’s more dangerous than sugar: maltodextrin.
Of all the ultra-processed food ingredients, I consider this one the worst.
Maltodextrin is GMO, refined, and highly processed. It can lead to belly fat, diabetes, and gut inflammation, yet it’s considered safe.
Even though maltodextrin is not a sugar and it’s not sweet, it behaves like sugar in the body. It’s also higher than sugar on the glycemic index.
Maltodextrin is an ingredient in many different products, from chips to seasonings, supplements, and infant formulas. It’s even in certain drinks like light beer, energy drinks, and sports drinks.
Because it’s not classified as a sugar, maltodextrin can also be added to sugar-free products even though it behaves like a sugar.
Maltodextrin is a filler ingredient, and there are loopholes that companies can use to legally add it to their products.
Other names for maltodextrin are dextrin, modified food starch, glucose syrup, corn starch, food starch, and corn syrup.
It’s crucial to start reading the ingredients in your products to avoid dangerous ingredients like maltodextrin.

Wow, the food industry is really killing us…😢
Big phood and big pharma
They kill more people than the military industrial complex.
The biggest shareholder in 2020 of both McDonald’s and Pfizer was ……. Blackrock.
Where killing ourselves?
Always remember… “they” want 500 million people for the world population. No more. So what do they do when the current population is over 8 Billion?
Thank you Dr. Berg for all this valuable info. It is a crime to put this trash on grocery shelves.
Welcome to America. Other countries ban these awful ingredients
I work as a Stocker in a grocery store and there’s alot of stuff I stock that I think should be illegal. Feel guilty stocking it
.
Umm…. You’re wrong. It’s not trash, it’s poison.
@@cmcleod2652We have this awareness of the FDA yet people were all about getting an FDA approved product injected straight into their veins
Buy products from Canada online.

Thank you Dr Berg!!👍
thats why Beer is bad… full of maltodextrin..hence the belly
No,sir. Thank yooou! 🎉
This was helpful. Thank you.
@@TheGlo0mYes, Thanks a lot, dr.Berg..
And Thanks Ts too
Does Maltodextrin caused Liver damage?
Thank you Dr Berg. I get severe headaches and anxiety after eating it. For a decade, no doctor has diagnosed my migraines and nerve pain for food poisoning aka modern wheat, food additives(msg), sugar etc.. I have constantly suffered until I started to cut down and cut completely of these poisons. The medical doctors are corrupt in terms of really helping patients live a long and healthy life
Do you still get headaches now that you cut these ingredients out of your diet?
@@ML-bf8gl very mild nowadays since I cut down sugar, wheat, msg and the Es (EU standard for food additives). I get mild ones because of my occasional overeating habits due to work stress. The headaches quickly go away after I fast for 3 days with two small meals a day.
The Headache s are real
Headaches are a sign of Magnesium deficiency. Watch Dr.Berg’s video on that topic
@@Ninah12345 thanks. Headaches come in different forms. Each form indicates different lacks or overloads of nutrients or poisons in the body and mind.
It would be diabolically criminal for manufacturers to inaccurately label their products…
But all the huge food conglomerates ARE criminals (organized crime cartel). They never have our best interests in mind, just theirs (& whatever marketing spin they need to sell it to you).
It IS “diabolically criminal” because the BIG AG Companies making these “non-food products” ARE DECEPTIVELY & FRAUDULENTLY LABELING the “food” as “safe” when they CERTIFIABLY KNOW that certain “ingredients” are NOT “safe.”
Furthermore, BIG AG & BIG PHARMA are “in bed” together mutually causing serious harm to millions of people.
This is true but It’s actually happening that they are committing this Crime and no one is doing anything about it
@@jakes2opp553 …
Unfortunately, too many peoples’ minds are so severely “affected” by the mind-altering programming of “television and pharmaceutically controlled commercials” as well as the city water sources being clandestinely contaminated with the nasty neurotoxin “Fluoride,” that they are no longer capable of using their brains for “critical thinking” or “deductive reasoning,” therefore, literally rendering them impotent and incapable of “acting to defend and protect” themselves or their loved ones.
If you eat any manufactured food item, you should expect the worst.
The fact that the FDA allows this all over the place speaks volumes, to concerns of population health, and where the focus is on those organizations meant to protect the people’s health.
I found out how toxic this stuff was. By NOT eating it. It is absolutely harming people.
I cried about all the suffering in my family BECAUSE of these chemicals.
You mean the F$A?
Yep, the FDA does not care about our health. It’s so crazy that people spent the whole year or 2021 lining up for corporate profit to be injected straight into their veins
My father, an old school country man, told me decades ago that the FDA is bought and sold and allows poisons in our foods.
Profits over people = the American way 😉
This is why we should not eat packaged foods period. Thank you Dr. Berg.
For sure !
Other names for maltodextrin are dextrin, modified food starch, glucose syrup, corn starch, food starch, and corn syrup. This means it’s in most foods and I think even ingred in health supplements
I can’t believe i was actually eating a product with this ingredient in it while watching this video – I could hardly read the small print but it was there. By the way Thank you Dr Berg ,I’ve been following your keto diet and intermittent fasting for 2 months – I’ve lost 22 lbs. I’ve always also eaten sugary products ever since I was a baby. I went cold turkey on sugar – feeling absolutely awesome
What were you eating bro
Went no sugar, cold turkey too, and never felt better! I sleep so good now!
Its in everything we eat nowadays, you’ll be surprised to find out people actually want to kill us instead of eating healthy.
It’s also in most sausages sold here in Germany, but usually behind salt on the list, so I tend to ignore it.
That is a hardcore story
Wow…I can’t believe it. thank you Dr. Berg. Can you please come up with a list of ingredients that are deadly like sugar, so we can go to grocery and check and avoid buying stuffs have them in? There are so many names for these deadly ingredients that I just learned in this video.
Avoid most things with a label, & cook from scratch & whole foods.
Dr. Berg has subtle yet noticeable facial/body language when he is really disgusted w/ the food industry yet keeps his voice calm. Thanks for this great video, as always!
Yes, I’ve noticed that for a few years. He’ll use sarcastic humor as well!
Lol. Yeah. Love It!
Yes…😂
The US food industry is killing us. One of my past coworkers worked overseas. He was in South America for about 3 years. He shopped at small farmers’ markets and ate fresh foods. He reported feeling so good but didn’t connect it to diet until he returned to the US. After returning, he was sick. His digestive system was messed up. He thought it was something he caught while out of the country. He finally went to an internal specialist, and they explained that while out of the country and not eating process food, his body went through a cleanse. All the toxins and inflammations were gone. Thank you for educating us.
Honestly Folks – What on earth would we do without Dr. Berg?! How much do we love Dr. Berg?! THANK YOU, DR. BERG, FOR BEING SO BLATENTLY HONEST AND FORTHRIGHT WITH PEOPLE! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I agree 💯.
@@guillermoviera6970 yes
Eternally grateful for you Dr Berg. My mother has already resigned to the fact that you are a big presence in our lives, I talk about you all the time . Thank you immensely ❤❤
My pleasure! Glad you found my videos helpful!
I talk to everyone that I can about Dr Berg as well. He literally saved my life and I can’t keep it to myself. I’ve lost 93 pounds in 7 months and I feel great, have lost all my cravings and most importantly I’m never really hungry. Dr Berg said it would happen and I had my serious doubts,but IT WAS ABSOLUTELY TRUE! DR BERG WAS RIGHT! HE IS MY LIVING HERO…💥
After a 5k I ran the other day, they passed out samples of a “healthy” instant latte. When I read that it had maltodextrin, I thought I shouldn’t drink it but I did anyways. I felt like I had a hangover. Now that I know just how bad it really is, I will definitely steer clear of it. Thank you!👍
I knew it was maltodextrin begore he even said it. I’m glad I was right.
Recently at the store, found Maltodextrin in sausages and ground sausage meat. Also found a drink in the “health food section” that was labelled sugar free and it contained …….sugar in the ingredients.
A year ago, I found your page, when I was getting sicker and sicker, to the point I was at the hospital waiting room trying to get help. In the time since finding you, I have fully turned my health back around. Yup, it was sugar and carbs, Hardcore insulin resistance, I was having severe edema in my legs and feet, I was deep in trouble. Since learning so much from you, I am about 80% back to normal, getting better by the day it feels like. Thanks so much Dr Berg, I wasnt anywhere near ready to be in that condition, fingers crossed I can push it all the way back to normal in another year.
Such a positive story, thanks for sharing! Are you doing it with just diet or have you also looked into supplements such as berberine?
Me too Same!!
I m very thankful as well I been feeling a lot better reading Dr Bergs Keto Book and I love those Nutrition Yeast Flakes!!
That’s amazing! I can see my health deteriorating rapidly as well and I’m scared. How did you beat insulin resistance?
@@ayasinx8797 look into research on berberine, it can reverse insulin resistance
I’ve been carnivore for about 5 months and am feeding my family mostly whole foods and no sugar. It’s amazing how much smaller my groceries are in the cart now without the boxes of processed foods. Thanks for caring, Dr. Berg.
@pdbrooks2099. I noticed this today I am 3 months now with same changes . ❤️
Thanks Dr Berg for all the healthy advice.
174 days carnivore, and in the best health of my life. Blood results to back it up too. 🥩🥩🥩
Thank you so much, Dr Berg! Your detail is appreciated. I just wanted to mention that over the years, I’ve come to notice that many foods labels that I’ve read were initially free of these sugar substitutes, are now showing up in products. So, constantly reading the labels is imperative.
Thank you for all this relevant information, Dr Berg. Your educational content and continuous support for our health are always appreciated 🙏🏻
My pleasure!
Ugh.. I really am sick of how much our system allows things to be put in our products that we CONSUME. Even if they aren’t killers, they are slow killers. There’s a whole list of things that we (big food corporations) put in our food that are illegal in Europe and Australia which says A LOT. Thank you for sharing this Dr. Berg
