  Hello, welcome back to my podcast, The Road Dog Podcast
• 0:12
  and welcome to this series called Eat Smart.
• 0:15
  Episode 4 Sugar is a scam. Yes, you heard it right.
• 0:21
  This episode isn't about fear mongering.
• 0:24
  It's about calling out the addiction, manipulation and the
• 0:29
  damage that sugar brings, all while hiding in plain sight.
• 0:39
  If sugar were sold like cigarettes, there would be a
• 0:42
  warning label on every pack of cookies.
• 0:46
  Like, you know, may causes addiction, weight gain, insulin
• 0:51
  resistance, fatigue and lifestyle disease.
• 0:55
  But guess what? It's not because sugar is a
• 1:04
  legal scam. What sugar actually does to your
• 1:17
  body. Don't think sugar means
• 1:21
  processed sugar alone. Sugar means in this term, sugar
• 1:26
  in the sense excess amount of food, carbohydrates.
• 1:32
  That's what I mean. Sugar.
• 1:35
  Let's keep it real. Sugar isn't just extra calories,
• 1:40
  it spikes your insulin, messes with your hunger hormones,
• 1:45
  triggers inflammation. Yes, you heard it right.
• 1:49
  The core reason for inflammation is this.
• 1:54
  Sugar breaks your gut and trains your brain to crave more sugar.
• 2:02
  Like if you really observe, you know, every time you eat sugar,
• 2:05
  you are not just satisfying A craving, you are feeding an
• 2:09
  addiction. Like if you really observe
• 2:13
  people around, you know, people who are out of shape and every
• 2:18
  time they eat some sugary foods, they always crave for more and
• 2:24
  more and more and more and more. And yes, that is true.
• 2:29
  That is what sugar does, specially excess sugar does.
• 2:34
  So check yourself especially while consuming good amount of
• 2:42
  sugars. And there is something else we
• 2:51
  need to talk, something called hidden sugar.
• 2:55
  Hidden sugar is like hidden damage.
• 2:59
  You might be wondering what is hidden sugar.
• 3:01
  Here again hidden sugar. It is not just like sweets like
• 3:07
  it is everything that is processed.
• 3:10
  Like for example sauces, packaged snacks, energy bars,
• 3:20
  healthy cereals and juices. Yes, you heard it right.
• 3:25
  Even juices are not healthy. I will, I will explain you why.
• 3:31
  Sauces, we already know package snacks, of course.
• 3:36
  Energy bars, healthy cereals and juices.
• 3:39
  This might be new to most people.
• 3:43
  Energy bars don't give you energy just like that.
• 3:45
  They add certain certain ingredients and chemicals.
• 3:50
  I don't want to go deep into that stuff but they do add that
• 3:56
  to give you enough satisfaction while consuming like.
• 4:03
  And let's focus on healthy cereals because I think most
• 4:07
  countries, especially Western countries are more obsessed with
• 4:10
  these healthy cereals a lot if I am not wrong.
• 4:15
  And guess what? Healthy cereals are not at all
• 4:18
  healthy at all in the 1st place. They are all added processed
• 4:23
  sugars in it. If you really, really observe
• 4:26
  it, you can see the sugars, literal sugars in the cereals.
• 4:33
  And it is not at all healthy. That is like you are spiking
• 4:37
  your insulin unnecessarily first thing in the morning.
• 4:41
  And that will keep you in risks in many, many ways you cannot
• 4:47
  even imagine. And yeah, let us focus on juices
• 4:52
  as well. Now you might all be wondering
• 4:57
  dog really, juices are really unhealthy.
• 5:00
  What you are talking? You are talking about sauces, I
• 5:02
  agree. Packaged snacks I agree, Energy
• 5:04
  bus healthy, cereals, fine. But juices?
• 5:11
  Juices are healthy right? Because they are taken from the
• 5:14
  fruits and vegetables, stuff like that right?
• 5:20
  Guess what, If you eat a fruit, for example, if you consume a
• 5:29
  fruit mindfully in a peaceful environment, you chew it, you
• 5:36
  eat it is different. The body treats its kind of
• 5:44
  different thing. But the moment you squeeze it,
• 5:48
  get the raw form of sugar alone from that fruit.
• 5:54
  It's basically pure sugar. And you add ice and even more
• 6:01
  sugar. You will add little bit sugar
• 6:04
  for the taste, more sugar. It's just sugar and then ice and
• 6:09
  then sugar. Some people even add milk, milk,
• 6:13
  maid and all that stuff. So guess what?
• 6:18
  Juices are basically worst thing compared to to all other things.
• 6:26
  Yeah, when you are in hospital, people bring you juices.
• 6:30
  Now you have to tell them now if you want to bring something,
• 6:36
  bring a fruit if you are able to eat.
• 6:39
  If you are not able to eat anything, then at least don't
• 6:44
  bring the juices. It's not healthy.
• 6:47
  It just spikes your sugars left, right and center in your body
• 6:51
  and it keeps more pressure on the body to tackle for the
• 6:58
  digestion purposes. So juices, hell no, keep that in
• 7:05
  mind. I know, I know, I know.
• 7:08
  Now everybody will be like surprised.
• 7:11
  We all thought juices are very healthy.
• 7:13
  We are all drinking it every day now.
• 7:16
  You know, you need to stop that right away.
• 7:19
  See having it once in a while, like once in a month won't do
• 7:24
  anything. If you are consuming juices like
• 7:26
  every single day, then you need to thinking that it is healthy.
• 7:31
  Then you need to think again slowly this time.
• 7:36
  Juices are never healthy. We as a doctors, we never
• 7:40
  suggest anyone to have juices at all.
• 7:44
  No, it's a big no no from our side.
• 7:49
  So yeah, sugars are hidden literally everywhere.
• 7:56
  So be careful what you are consuming because the food
• 8:01
  industries knows if it is sweet you will come back for more.
• 8:07
  That is why sweet sugars are the silent killers.
• 8:16
  Why do not you feel good after consuming these kind of sugars?
• 8:20
  What you experience? I am going to explain this to
• 8:24
  you. Most people might have
• 8:26
  experienced brain fog, energy crashes, specially poor sleep.
• 8:33
  You blame stress or ageing. But it might be just your sugar
• 8:39
  intake. The body was in design for a 40g
• 8:43
  of refined sugar a day. That is not a treat guys.
• 8:47
  That is a slow destruction that is happening behind the curtains
• 8:52
  and you just do not know that at this point of time.
• 8:58
  So you need to change your mindset regarding what is
• 9:01
  healthy and what is not healthy. There are so many things that is
• 9:06
  hidden that literally in the plain sight.
• 9:12
  Of course you do not need to quit sugar completely, but you
• 9:18
  need to be become more aware. Start reading.
• 9:22
  Let us say, start reading from labels.
• 9:24
  Start asking is this real food or just a dopamine hit in the
• 9:29
  pretty packaging. The sugar industries made
• 9:37
  billions by convincing us that fat was the enemy.
• 9:43
  Truth is, according to me, it was sugar all along.
• 9:49
  So be careful and eat mindful, eat smart, choose real.
• 9:59
  Don't get scammed by the sweetness.
