- 3 Dangerous Ingredients to Avoid - Wallet Cutout Card: drbrg.co/3UuMMNd
Learn how to read nutrition labels and spot the top three ingredients to avoid.
0:00 Introduction: Which food is healthier?
0:52 Nutrition facts
2:43 Ultra-processed foods
5:03 How to read nutrition labels
5:10 Top ingredients to avoid
Let’s compare the nutrition facts of Product A and Product B to see which food is healthier. Product A contains 29 grams of total fat, 4 grams of saturated fat, 17 grams of carbohydrates, and 1 gram of sugar.
Product B contains 8 grams of total fat, 1 gram of saturated fat, 16 grams of carbohydrates, and 0 grams of sugar. Based on these nutrition facts, which food is healthier?
Product A is an avocado, and Product B is Doritos! Doritos contain corn, vegetable oil, maltodextrin, monosodium glutamate, dextrose, and many other poor ingredients-yet you may have thought Product B was the healthier food.
You can't rely on nutritional facts alone to determine whether a food is healthy; you must look at the ingredients.
Food is “that which is eaten to sustain life, provide energy, and promote the growth and repair of tissues.” Ultra-processed foods do not align with this definition! I believe that of everything that causes disease and destroys your health, ultra-processed foods are the most significant factor.
If you want to know which food is healthy, you should ignore nutrition facts and go right to the ingredients. Here are 3 ingredients you’ll want to avoid:
1. Seed oils
2. All forms of sugar
3. Starches

Thanks for watching! I hope this explains how a nutrition facts label can be misleading. I’ll see you in the next video.
What upsets me is even after you cut out junk food, processed food, now we are dealing with produce coated in Apeel or pesticides, produce grown with 75% less nutrients than their ancestors just 30 years ago, animals fed wheat and given medicines, PFAS in every single thing we eat, grow, drink and breathe, and now we have to fight foods that are grown in labs like cheese and meat! We can’t win!
Organic or farmers markets
I shop at Costco, and at our local farmers markets. Costco does not use Apeel.
You can win! Meat is the most nutritious food you can buy. Try carnivore for 30 days. Most people feel a difference in just two weeks.
Solution? Don’t consume high fibre plants, fruit, ultra-processed foods, or seed oils. Stick to animal-based, whole foods.
An micro plastics coming from plastic drink bottles. Avoid.
You provided a masterful argument against ultra processed foods; they are not food.
I noticed how all the peanuts, Cashews, and other nuts are modified. Either they are roasted,baked in oil, added salt. Or even have Dextrose added to them. Its here in Sweden
Its not food its substance, Frankenstein foods
Not really, he compared 3 servings of avocado to 1 serving of doritos. So it's not an apples to apples comparison.
Granted I do agree ingredients is a major factor but so are the nutrients. For instance, kale is a far healthier option than iceberg lettuce because there are far more nutrients.
I picked A
@@adim00lah He only meant when comparing processed foods to real food
I completely agree with you, Dr Berg. The real problem with food nowadays is "fake and toxic" vs "real and nutritious" where all toxic ingredients are the culprits causing multiple health problems. Thank you 🙏🏻
It's truly amazing how invested you are in educating us to live better healthier lives Dr Berg. My grocery list has completely changed because of your advice. My approach to food and exercise and other things one would never even think about have completely changed.
My optometrist, dentist and general practitioner are impressed when I go for my check ups and my optometrist was so impressed with how my eyes improved after I implemented your advice that he cracked open a notebook and listened to ME giving him advice on eye health instead of the other way around. If it were not for you, I'd probably be overweight, wearing glasses and addicted to energy drinks but today I'm in the best shape I've been in for years.
You're my hero, and the only true doctor in my life.
Please...where does one find the specific eye advice you mention?
Same here. Where I live, real organic food without all of the extra ultra processed ingredients is actually relatively affordable, so it was an easy change. I was getting really out of shape and had a belly, but after just 3 weeks of taking Dr. Berg's diet, I lost 20 lbs. and had more energy than I've had in years. I also checked out his video on weightlifting and have been doing the single set workouts once a week and now I have a 6-pack. People I work with have made comments to me about how I look great and how even my mental state has improved. Who knew eating right relieves stress, nervousness, and depression? well, I do now.
I would like to read the eye improvement advices
@@nancyk5203search eye health in dr berg’s you tube. There are a few. Actually it is best to go back to the beginning of his list and watch as many videos as possible. You will learn something from each one and it all ties into your overall health. Watch the live videos also as people call in and ask dr berg questions. He. Doesn’t have a video on every ailment but you will hear about different ones in the live streams and learn from there. I have been watching him for 10 years. Looked up some chiropractic therapies and found dr berg. Then he was giving health information and he is so popular now.
Good luck!
If a product needs a label, it's likely not even food anyway. You don't need a label for single ingredient foods like steak, eggs, avacados, etc...
Amen!
Based
I read the label and if it contains seed oils, HFCS or added sugars beyond reason or maltodextrin I put it back on the shelf and move on.
I spend more time reading labels these days, and it sure makes a BIG difference in joint pain 😊.
Better yet, if it has a label, don’t eat it. I feed my family only fresh fruit, vegetables, fish, beef and occasionally chicken.
Same.
👍🏻👍🏻 👏🏻
Don't even have to read the labels really, if it comes in a box or a bag it probably has all three of those in it.
@1:15 Don't forget the artificial colors Red 40, Yellow 6 Yellow 5
Yep!
Yes, thanks for adding this.
All food colors are carcinogenic… It was determined so in the 1970s when the FDA was established and advise companies they could not use artificial coloring. The companies merely tweaked the artificial coloring on a molecular level, and kept using them anyway. The chemicals add to shelf life; natural coloring does not.
I used to shop at the store, grab and go. Now I'm in there 1/2 hr reading labels, scanning for toxic ingredients and I grow my own food too
I did that too. I went through three huge stores and read every label. I learned a lot and enjoyed every minute of that part of the study. I ended up growing my own as insurance for good food.
@@candyflair7946 there's an app called ' bobby approved' where u scan the labels and it tells u if there s toxic ingredients and which ones or if it s really healthy.
In the 80's as a child, I was taught that the defining characteristic of a "food" was 'something that is grown directly from the Earth'.
This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health.
He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way.
I just love learning from his simple to understand videos. I respect this man immensely. 🙏

I could not find the list of different names of the 'evil' stuff. Could you oost it, too?
00:00 🤔 Nutritional facts alone don't determine a food's healthiness.
02:21 🍏 An apple can be healthier than processed foods labeled with better nutritional facts.
03:02 🛑 Ultra processed foods lack essential nutrients due to industrial processing.
04:19 📉 Ultra processed foods are a significant factor in health problems.
05:08 🛒 Focus on ingredients: avoid seed oils, sugars, and starches.

Amazing video and I completely agree with you, Dr Berg. Love the way how you lay out facts and speak out big truths. Thanks for your daily contribution and helpful advice.
Great video and great channel, thanks for all you do Dr B.
DEFINITELY AGREE DR BERG, THESE ARE THE TYPE OF VIDEOS THAT ARE SO EDUCATIONAL, YET THEY'RE NOT IN OUR SCHOOL SYSTEMS ARE THERE NOT TEACHING OUR KIDS LET ALONE PARENTS THIS TYPE OF INFORMATION!!
because big businesses and government politicizing the education system to gain more profit in future generations.
An easy way to shop is :
Shop the perimeter of the store, fresh produce,meat/seafood, dairy. Stay away from anything in a package or box except frozen vegetables and fruit.
😄 i just eanted to write the same.
Excellent research. Appreciate you, Doc. Thanks for sharing this with folks.
You're welcome! Glad you found it helpful!
This is PROFOUNDLY important information. Thank you!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
You're welcome! Glad you found it useful!
Watching again.Thank you so much Doctor Berg.Excellent in formation ❤
Most welcome! Glad you found it informative!
Thank you Dr Berg for another great video of such important facts that we all need to know. I will be sharing this ASAP.
I actually picked A based on the fiber reducing the carbs and the protein level. The fat was high, but the saturated fat wasn't high.
Thank you, this helps a lot. I always wondered how the total sugars and total fiber didn’t add up to the total carbs. It makes it easier to focus more on the ingredients and what to avoid.
Dr. Berg, I am so happy to hear you getting the word out about the horrid condition of our food supply. What we have is quite the trifecta of agriculture, food manufacturing, and medical/pharmaceuticals all profiting from our nutrition ignorance...
The other thing to avoid are "calories" to describe food energy... A calorie is a unit of heat as measured by a b*mb calorimeter and as you know, that's not how our bodies metabolize food... the whole idea of the energy balance concept (CICO) is a wrong-headed approach this and we need a better system... The Calorie has to go... I no longer use it or the term.
There is a good book on that - The Calorie Myth by Jonathon Bailor.
Thank you for teaching us accurate, authentic and very thoughtful weights of nutritional facts for our health and well-being. Misrepresented and inaccurately weighted facts on what different nutrition's do to the body abound. Your videos inspire true health, and ease the mind in it's not so easy pursuit.
Thats nothing. Glad to share info that can help you all.
Thank you Dr Berg for your passion and compassion educating us on how to understand the right and wrong foods to consume.
Since subscribing to you over 6 years ago, has changed my perspective on healthy habits to a more healthier body and lifestyle! I owe this to you!
Many many blessings to you, your work and research you share candidly and intellectually to inform us in making the right healthy choices 🙏
Omg ! 😮 I cannot believe it .I do read the labels all time but also the ingredients but this has opened my eyes even more thanks 🙏🏻
This is great for those people who only think it's about calories and don't think that it's about WHAT you are actually eating.
Thanks Dr Berg!
May God Bless You and your loved ones!
It was nothing at all.
Also "Flavour enhancers" is another name for MSG. They get away with hiding their crap under other "fancy names" to make it sound "healthy" or pass as "harmless".
Unspecified ingredients added for flavor can include HEK293... human embryonic kidney.
Exactly.
@Mathilda2zero that one as well. They hide their stuff under different names. Thanks.
Thank you for info
Tust in your self😢. Protein, carbs and fats in ok you can do goog just what feels the best to you at that thime. Love you all
Dr berg great summary ❤thanks 😊
Thank you Dr. Berg - you are wonderful !
You the man Dr. Berg! Keep up the great work your knowledge has helped me so much, thank you.
Eating healthy has become a real challenge. Thanks Doc for your videos 😊
The longer you do it the easier it gets. After a couple of years doing this, fast food and ultra processed foods don't even sound appetizing anymore, I thank God for that! The few times I've tried it in the past over a year ago I could feel the grease coat my mouth, it felt so gross that after a couple of bites I threw it in the trash. I never felt the grease in my mouth before I changed my diet but I do now, stay the course you will get there. For example, I used to love chicken fried chicken and the gravy but when I eat out which isn't often, I'll have someone with me who'll order it, I have no desire for that crap anymore. It's a nice feeling!
@shawnlewis1918 been eating healthy for a year and half, junk food upsets my stomach after eating it. Really weird how the body reacts
@@zzygyy Yep....on any given Saturday I will still splurge some on certain things like pizza or higher carb foods but if I over do it I can feel the blood sugar and insulin rising to insane levels where I used could never feel that sensation, it's like my body has become way more sensitive to junk carbs now so it's a deterrent from doing it often. Started keto about 3 years ago and switched over the carnivore the last several months, diet has become very simple and easy. Some would say boring but I now crave bacon and pasture raised eggs and juicy marbled red meat with grass fed butter and garlic on it! Not boring at all for me personally. Simple rule is if it doesn't sound good in the moment then you aren't really hungry and wait a few more hours, you will know when it's time to eat when my carnivore items sound good again I know it's time to consume!
Happy that you found it useful!
@shawnlewis1918 I only eat one cheat meal a week. Pizza hits hard.
Really enjoying your videos and how you seem to genuinely care about bettering your viewer's health as a whole. I recently found out that I cant have anything Potato related; dextrose, cellulose, gums etc. and when I tell you it seems like it's in everything... life got more complicated, already unable to eat any wheat or gluten. I can't pick anything up in the store without having to read every ingredient, some even having multiple names! Why do they put so many additional things in our foods! The FDA is interesting.
Thank you so much for this breakdown of ingredients on labels. I'm often confused by the way they classify ingredients. I will definitely look at labeling differently from now on,
Great, great videom, and the hand out! Thank you Dr. Berg!
Great video Dr Berg, big thumbs up and I love your continued innovative approaches. In order to illustrate why certain foods are so ultra processed and turned into chemicals instead of foods, you could show some of the processes which are done in factories. Once people see what is done to foods, it is more acceptable to understand that this has no natural nutrition anymore.
Love the content Dr.
Wow! Such a simple demonstration but exactly what we need. You are really helping me improve my diet, consequently my health. 🙏
I'm glad to help!
DR. Berg thank you so much for your great work that gets people to think more and ask the right questions.
Excellent as always. Excelente como siempre. Blessings and long life, Dr. Berg.
I love this kind of video which shows the practical aspect of a healthy lifestyle.
Thanks!
I'm glad you liked this post.
Thank you for the cutout card.
Your article on coconut and palm oil inspired me to buy Bruce fife's books on ketones.
If you haven't read his books on coconut oil he is the man who created the coconut research center... I think you could do over 100 videos alone on just what he has in his books... Hope you read of him dr berg ❤
Hello Dr Berg, Thank you so much for your replying my requirement.
Thank you so much for analysing the food contain in the label. It's so great. I am grateful your advice ❤
You're absolutely welcome!
Amazingly useful information. Thank you doctor!!!❤
You're so welcome!
Dr. Berg,
Thank you! Excellent info as always.
Glad I could assist.
Thanks for providing real informacion , the world needs this so much! 🙏❤️👌
Happy to help!
@@Drberg You do more than helping sir , you provide the information the WHO should be spreading.. glad doctors like yourself actualy have ethics 🙏🖤 thank you from Belgium.
Thank you so much Dr.Berg..🌺💖
Once again, thank you very much Doctor ! I so much appreciate all your help and thank you for the “card of things to avoid eating”!
Wow! Good comparison, Dr, Berg.
Thank you Dr Berg for sharing another informative video. May God blessed you and your family!
You're absolutely welcome!
Shaking my head mann🤦♂️that's insane how alot of the food here in America is basically just not good 4 us..but at the sametime they continue 2 sell it and Make it look pretty on the outside. Once I get my income Right, I plan 2 cook food at home more often. Respect 2 You Dr Eric for sharing this info.
Hu Dr Eric , love your videos , can you make a video on adaptogens
Will love to hear you!!
Wow, great video. Love the comparison.
Glad to know that you liked this post!
I’m so grateful for this video. Immediately sent a screenshot of this file of ingredients to avoid, to my mom with high blood sugar.
Oh wow, this is the kind of info that actually works. Simple old school is plenty n enough. Now I’m not confused with all the similar terms. Thank you doc!!
Great presentation!🙏🏽👍
Totally 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️ grateful to you Dr Berg
Shop the perimeter of your grocery store. Meats, fruits, veggies, good dairy
Thank you so much! May God bless you for sharing all of this insightful information that will help to prolong our lives.🙏🏾❤
It's my pleasure! Glad I could assist.
dr berg love your videos, just wanted to let you know your audio's seem to be lower than they've been in a while
Dr. Berg, I appreciate the truthful, helpful information you share. You break things down so we can see everything realistically. Enabling us to make more beneficially educated decisions. Thank you.
Well done Dr Berg for exposing and educating what is food
FANTASTIC examples!
Great information, thanks Doc! You mentioned MSG quickly at the end. I watched some videos and did some research and found out that natural MSG is quite all right, at least based on what I can see. I get the kind made from seaweed and people say that it should be used instead of salt for people trying to have lower sodium because it's only around 15% sodium. I also saw all the information dispelling the data that was going around about MSG headaches and hangovers from Chinese restaurants and it was completely disproven, at least to my satisfaction. Would love to get your take on it, thanks. But I see why you'd have it there cuz quite often it is an indicator of a poor product that they're trying to ramp the flavor up on
Amazing information..
Excellent presentation 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I am so glad to have found your videos on you tube, I have lost 30 lbs in 10 months so far because of the video you did on adrenal fatigue. you are awesome & amazing the knowledge you share is mind blowing. I have been trying to loose weight & keep it off my entire adult life. THANK YOU
Knowledge is power which helps create positive change. Thank you for sharing that with us everyday. ❤🙏💐
Hello Dr. Berg! I'm not sure if you've covered this topic in any of your previous videos, but could you please consider making a video discussing the risks associated with preparing or heating food in the microwave, as well as the dangers of cooking with pans containing Teflon and other potentially hazardous materials commonly found in our homes?
When I read a food label, I am looking at ingredients, protein, and fiber, so when a label doesn't have fiber, I don't trust it.
You don’t trust meat?
Per Dr Michael Eades, rocessed added fiber does not prevent sugar spikes. Only fiber connected to its original natural source slows bg sugar spikes.
If a product needs a label, it's likely not even food.
@@scottdanielson4816 No, it needs a label because that's where the bar code is. I can't buy any fruits or vegetables, meat or anything you would consider real food without label because if there's no label for the cashier to scan - there's no sale.
@edy3569 depends on where you're buying it. A nutritional label isn't necessary for steak, eggs, bananas, oranges, avocado, etc. It's one ingredient. They can have a barcode for ease of ringing it up or just put a price tag or price per pound....doesn't need an ingredient label too.
Thank you Dr.BERG
It's my pleasure!
It amazes me that people don't ask themselves and each other why "they" get poison in our food???
I have been researching it for over 10 years and have found out quite a lot.
But when I tell people about it, they don't believe it and think I'm crazy.!!! Thanks for the video 💖💖💖
Thank you for your sharing this ❤❤❤
You're most welcome!
Yep!! You must look at ingredients 👏
Thank you very much for your recent uploads!
No problem. Thanks for watching my videos. Take care.
You got it! Thanks for watching!
The nutritional facts do help. I think the difference in serving size (which you presumably blanked out) tell a big part of the story! For avocados vs Dorritos, look at the carb to fat ratio. The avocados have a much lower carb to fat ratio. At the same time, to your point, it doesn't say what kinds of fats these are! e.g. natural avocado fats, versus seed oils in the Dorritos.
Thank you sooo 🙏 😊
CPT and CNC here. Love the info and cutout resource. Question- for the sugars column, why aren’t you including popular fake sugar names like sucralose and aspartame? Also, assuming your mentioning of honey and maple syrup is about the processed flavors and not the actual maple to honey from the source, correct?
idk man i actually picked A, i thought "daaang what food has all that fat and all that fiber??" i usually count the carbs then substract the fiber
I picked A because I saw all the sodium in B and figured it was definitely unhealthy.
Yeah, A for sure! 17 grams of carbs, but only 4 grams of so-called 'net carbs'
@@Five0Five for sure. and the corn they use in doritos isnt even edible corn its indigestable. they add Glutamine to it to make it feel filling
Thank you very good explanation 😊
You're most welcome!
Thank you Dr. Berg👑🏆
🤨 😱 🌟
Brilliant.
Thank You,
Dr. Eric Berg, DC 🌟
Definitely one of your best You Tube Videos.
I enjoyed that test! I usually only compare similar items or a category to improve a few grams at a time on some of my enjoyable poorer choices.
So I've purchased "organic maple syrup" as a sweetener, so what kind of sweeteners can one use? I'm just a little confused. I did print out the little chart-thank you for that, I'm still learning and trying my best to avoid processed food. Interesting in the comparisons you did about ingredients and then showed what the product was, eye opener!
Thank you Doc. ❤
Anytime!
Wow excelent video!
Thanks for those insights. You simply have to do the homework with regard to your diet and to discover all the pitfalls out there.
Am in Sicily, and have just finished a homemade fresh pea stew 😋. Followed by a square of 70% cocoa dark chocolate
I spoke with an MD, a doctor in the USA, who developed Lupus, and quit the practice of medicine. After she traveled to Italy, she was able to eat anything she wanted, and felt better than in this country.
Upon her return to the USA, she now advises people to stop using most pharmaceutical drugs that cause harm, and advocates eating organic and natural foods, and using natural products to heal.
The chemicals we are bombarded with have created major health issues, depleted our soil, contaminated our air and water....
It's important all of us to educate ourselves, and learn to become our own advocates.
Dr Berg is a great teacher.
This video is incredibly helpful. I was about to eat a granola bar thinking it was a good option to add to a quick breakfast on the go but then I saw canola oil as the 3rd ingredient😮 and all these sugars and starches. I truly have no idea what I’m really eating.
Thanks Doc A
Without ingredients I can't judge something: E). Need more information. B could be arsenic sausage for all I know.
Another informative video! Yay! I picked A. Healthy Choice!👍🏽
Glad to know that you liked this post!
Thank you Dr Berg for being an advocate on health and nutrition.
I have habit now of staying on outside rows of grocery store and no boxes, bags, or barcodes.
Happy to help!
Muchas Gracias!
De nada, gracias por su comentario.
I agree. Ever since switching to a mostly Whole Foods diet I don’t focus on nutritional labels and I never really have an issue with overeating. I think focusing too much on nutritional labels can be dangerous and this video is a direct example why. Educate yourself
Hi. Thank you for your very helpful videos! Speaking about seed oils, is pure sunflower oil on your black list as well?
Yes
Great video! Talk about solarised water, that's a very interesting topic!
It was nothing at all.
@@Drberg greetings from Brazil!
Thank you Dr. Berg! I’ve suffered from Crohn’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis and severe swelling of my legs, feet and hands until I learned about Maltodextrin and the other names for it. As long as I don’t cheat and eat something I know I should, all the pain, inflammation and swelling are non existent.
This is why I call out manufactures who post products on Facebook who only show the Nutrition lables and not the ingredents.
