This Carb Spikes Blood Sugar WORSE Than Sugar
The most dangerous carb in the world is not sugar. It’s not even classified as a sugar, yet it spikes blood sugar higher than sugar itself.
This factory-engineered carbohydrate bypasses every warning label you’ve been taught to look for. It’s marketed as “zero sugar,” costs pennies per pound, and is added to thousands of everyday products, including gluten-free foods, baby formula, baked goods, and sports nutrition.
And the health consequences are massive. The average person consumes 65–250 pounds per year of this industrial starch without realizing it.

Thank you so much, Doc!❤❤❤
You’re very welcome!
It is beyond evil.
What a bunch of pigs!!!! With out the internet and these videos we would be completely destroyed!!! Thank you Dr Berg!!!🇨🇦
Avoid Carageenan as well
Priming the pump for big medical profits in 20 years.
@artcflowers that stuff has ruined my gut
Thanks Dr Berg. This is an eye opener indeed.
❤❤
I didn’t even know something like this exists 😮😮… thank you for the information 🙏🙏🙏
My diet is now 100% processed food free. Now it’s just a matter of undoing some of the past damage. These corporations and government stooges belong in Hell.
😂😂😂😂😂
Let’s start with prison.
@aslyswine Don’t hold your breath. No one went to jail over Agent Orange, DDT and PFAS.
US food is terrible . They definitely opt for cheap cheap .
I know I can’t believe what they put in our food!
Just so you know, my full line of high-quality supplements is available on Amazon — search Dr. Berg Supplements.
Putting together an Amazon cart today and ordering them!! Your videos have been so eye opening for me!! I’m really happy to have found your channel!! ❤
What about tapioca starch? Thanks
Great!!! I recently purchased your Black Seed Oil from Amazon and was a little hesitant because I wasn’t sure if it was truly your product!
I’d rather buy direct from you
Thanks
Avoid packaged food!!
Good luck
Lol I can’t have most packed food I avoid them all because lectins kill me. Meat, a few different veggies and a few fruits is all I can have if I don’t want full body pain. Now I don’t even crave them they make me a sick so that is not appealing. It’s definitely doable.
Hard to do. Even fruits n vegetables are packaged in plastic containers contributing to our microplastic epidemic and thats before we get to a better understanding of what all is actually in our now mostly lab grown, GMO’ed fruits n veggies. Theres simply not much left to choose from for food much less actually enjoy eating it.
@ashleyjames8954You’re talking about plastics (which are actually macro plastics and not microplastics) and she’s talking about something completely different. Lmao. Just like to hear yourself talk???
Dang it’s in my sugar free drink mix. 😮😮😮
That’s where they get you.
😂😂😂😂😂
Along with other chemicals…so add some electrolytes to water instead. Win/win!
It’s in EVERYTHING!!!!
Mix? All bad. Buy some fruit and/ Veges blend it yourself.
Yeah my Diabetic nurse told me last year its starch l need to cut out not sugar. I thought she was exaggerating at first. I started eating flours like chickpea, Almond, oatmeal etc. My hbc is now getting lower.
Lol it’s not either or. You still need to cut sugar. Smh
Huh
Where u get that kind of flour please 😊
@suegray8296clearly you’re a bot if you don’t know where to get any of these flours. 😅😅😅😅😅
Starch is sugar lol it turns to sugar in ur body. It’s usually easier to get rid of sugary foods first and still eat starchy veg, beans and wholegrain breads and pasta. Then u cut back on those so ur not eating them every meal and then cut out any snacks.
U have to get enough protein and increase ur fat to do all this.
I’ve noticed that this stuff is used a lot to give sauces that thick texture. So i mostly tend to just stay away from those nowadays.
You’re right .. I don’t eat processed food .. but every time I make chicken wings or roasted veggies I use lot of that sauce dressings.. whihout noticing just one gram of those sauce is 100 calories and where those calories come from just 1 spoon is these statches
This must be why pizza always feels like it’s hurts all of the fake starch and acidic sauce
MALTODEXTRIN & MODIFIED CORN STARCH A V O I D !!!
MODIFIED Maltodextrin. Keyword is modified. Probably mixed in with something during processing.
Natural maltose from Barley is healthy. It has existed for centuries.
🙏 .I did not listen to the end.😅
TY 👍🏻
Dr Berg needs to get to the point instead of list 100s of bad effects first
Modified corn starch (e.g., Glycosade) is designed to digest slower, resulting in a more gradual, sustained release of glucose compared to the rapid blood sugar spike caused by regular cornstarch. It provides a more stable glycemic response, making it superior for managing overnight hypoglycemia in glycogen storage disease (GSD).
That’s why I don’t eat stuff in a box.
I was going to make a comment about an old SNL skit with Timberlake and Samberg, but I decided that would be in bad taste.
@afisemenaborevlaka48 lmao. Classic.
@ArmandVandal 🙂
When was it introduced in mass into our foods ? Asking for anyone that’s noticed the obesity difference in old pictures between the 70s and now.
This is a good point. Wondering this too.
It’s been in baby food forever
My brother was born in 68 and I used to feed him and take bites of his fruits, they were thick. I got older and was babysitting in late 70s and noticed it on labels. I asked my mom n she told me it was always in there.
He (& I assume me too) also had homemade formula from evap milk and corn syrup. It’s amazing we functioned at all as children or at school. Humans can tolerate a lot of physiological abuse. My brothers had 2 cancers and I’ve fought obesity, esp central obesity (worst kind) my whole life.
Maltodextrin=Splenda, what stevia sweetners as well not all are pure Stevia, the add maltodextrin as the first ingredient. I found it on a mayo label the other day. Juat have to read everything, they hid all of this stuff in our foods, fillers…thank you Dr Berg!
I stick to fresh veggies and buy my meat from a small farm and I know the person who owns it. It’s a shame not everyone can do that…
Splenda is not maltodextrin
It is sucralose
But some sucralose has maltodextrin added
Splenda isn’t good for u either tho even if u find it w/o additives
Use stevia and monkfruit with or without erythritol or even erythritol alone
@YeshuaKingMessiah I believe that allulose is another good sweetener.
In Finland, a man sold organic stevia, but large companies took his company away, and he said that now they mix other substances with it. :/
@ViaVeritas he is correct. Look at the ingredients on the green stevia packets. I used those packets for a while then I looked at the ingredients. First one is dextrose next ingredient is Stevia leaf😮
@straubdavid9yes
This ingredient should be BANNED !!!
Yeah, I think Kennedy will get around to that, he’s already banned 16 additives w/a total of 36 coming l o l 😅 yow 😮 !!!
Thank you, Dr. Berg for being such an excellent teacher.
It’s a pleasure, truly appreciate your support!
It needs to be illegal.
It is too profitable so no legislator would dare eliminate it. Some countries so not use it and you can see it in the general health of the population and lower cost of health care. Billions of dollars are gained by making Americans some of the most out of shape people on earth due to what is allowed in processing to explode profits. I moved from the US 25 years ago and see very few people who are out of shape. I never see obese under 50 years old, every one is so healthy and spend far less on food. I have not seen an overweight girl under 40 in 10 years in a city of 5.5 million. So to where young people gather and they are all so fit and active, and overall have a reputation of being the most attractive and educated in the world.
No
Cornstarch=natural thickening agent,you could make in your kitchen. MOD cornstarch=made using chemicals.
I even found maltodextrin in a supplement sold at my local health food store. They’re usually good at vetting sources but they didn’t know about this until I asked after seeing dr. berg talk about it several years ago.
This method of waffling on throughout the video only to reveal the answer at the very end isn’t a strategy that hooks me in with eager anticipation to find out what it is. It makes me tune out and not care, and I watch something else.
