Kombucha Diet Details Calories, Carbs, and Health Advantages

You should make a video on the company low carb I buy their biscuits all the time but the ingredients is Sketchy

Thank you �� Look forward to your next video regarding probiotics and prebiotics as need as my gallbladder was removed!!!

i don’t understand ， why food that have low glycemic is good because the food get absorbed by the body slowly？ if so， why the food get absorbed is a good thing ？

Thank you! Should have watched this video before I shook the bottle—yikes! Had no idea this had alcohol in it until I felt tipsy and fell asleep right away. And, I only had half a glass!

Kombucha is acidic when consuming in pH however the residue when consumed is alkaline. It makes your body more alkaline. Acidosis is absurd. Bad science.

Ive just started taking collagen to help with my joints and pain in the joints what else can be done to help with it and remove it through diet, it’s stopping me from training calisthenics and really annoying if I try to hang for 30 seconds I can do it but the next day I’ll be in extreme pain my wrists feel like there about to fall off and I have absolutely no strength as the lain is Soo intense. After that I’ll be down and out for about two weeks suffering immense pain in my wrists I move my wrists around & they crack alot I haven’t always bene this way when I was you get my body was great I’m 29 now and have had I’ll health now for 10+ years. I was a really good sportsman and had to give everything up when I slipped a disc in my back and 19 years later my back is still not better and I get lots of other symptoms

Help would muchly be appreciated
Cheers mate

I was a little confused when Thomas explained “Glycemic Load”. I did a little research.

To put it in simple terms, it’s a ranking system for carbohydrate-rich foods that measures the amount of carbs in a serving of food. It is a better indicator of which foods will spike your blood sugar than the Glycemic Index. Watermelon has a high Glycemic Index of 72 but a low Glycemic Load of 7.21. Unless you’re planning to eat whole entire watermelons, it’s not going to spike your blood sugars because per serving watermelon does not have a lot of carbs (it’s made of mostly water). The GI of 72 comes from 5 cups of watermelon, that’s lot of watermelon.

Hopefully that cleared some things up. If you take anything out of it, just know that Glycemic Load is more important than Glycemic Index.

Excellent video amen!
I’ve watched many of your videos. Detailed and right on point!

James & rescue kitty

Thomas you are so impressive. The amount of information you just dispensed in a clear and consise easy to comprehend manner is just exponential. Your presentation is stellar. And i actually learned something I did not know. I am getting off metformin, and you are going to help me. I went 54 years without metformin and my blood not spiking. But the drugs i was on actually contributed to what is happening now. I love eating raw and vegetarian. Im barely scratching the surface with what i can eat. The CARB thing has thrown me off, but im back on track and my blood meter is giving me 110 so i have brought it down from high 200s just by listening to u and Dr Jason Fung.

I already regularly consume asparagus on my low carb diet, and usually have a glass of grapefruit juice every saturday morning. Are grapefruits and buckwheat two foods that you would recommend consuming more often?

I am so glad I found your channel!!! So much information that I needed to know just in this one video. Thank you so much. I just subscribed ��

Fantastic I eat all those in this video & feel great…������

Does it mean noodles or crepes made with buckwheat is keto friendly? Like soba?

This report is a scam. The only grief I’ve ever heard about kombucha is some people not liking the taste (probably smokers or Coca Cola addicts). Makes you wonder what other ancient Chinese medicine has been burned into secrecy

Can you give a list of foods you prefer for snacking on through out the day?

Why does Dr Berg say your vegetable intake on keto doesn’t count for your carb count?

I hate grapefruit since its bitter, i guess cherries it is for me ��

Food science, music to my ears. Make everything more credible.

Green Buckwheat not roasted called buckwheat kasha eaten in Russia. Grows like a weed in America but no one cares!

I buy pineapple/ginger organic kombucha from food Lion. 5oz a day for adult son with severe autism/cfs for all of good probiotics

My wife is type 1 diabetic!! I watch it happen. Trust this man!!!

Great video I follow Keto diet and I’m Celiac what are options for those who are Celiac? Looked at Gutzy-organics and they have oats in there and that is a no go for me. What are some safe pre-biotic options for Celiac disease? Thanks

I loooove buckwheat flakes with greek yoghurt, blueberries and cinnamon ���� so happy I dont have to feel bad for eating this dish every once in a while. ��

Since bananas have sugar and fiber is it ok that I eat around 5 per day?

Why glycemic index don’t differ from person to person for a particular food?? Every one is different..

Very informative and, excuse the pun here, but very digestable information

I really like this video, Thomas! The way you broke things down was awesome!:-)

You need to mention that grapefruit interferes with the absorption of some medications (it blocks the enzyme CYP3A4). So check with your doctor before you eat a lot of grapefruit. Things like Keppra (used for seizures) and some lipid lowering drugs. Grapefruit can also increase our absorption of Tegratol (used also for seizures for nerve pain and for bipolar disorder). If you take one of these drugs, you probably already know grapefruit is a no-no, but not everyone remembers the warning if they are already on the drugs when they start eating grapefruit.

Hasn’t this guy been called out as a fraud??? I can look up GI response on the internet nothing special here.

Pamplemousse is the yuckiest citrus after the blood orange. �� I refuse to touch them. Horrible!

Great videos. Tell us more about how to get magnesium and weakness on keto

I read different numbers for buckwheat (around 50 depending on cooking).

What’s the best time to have low GI fruit like Grapefruit? Morning? Night?

Do you know millet grains family? If not please research. They are the best carbs with lot of fiber and can cure any decease. Period!

Yay!! I’m obsessed with strawberries! This makes me so happy that I don’t have to cut them out! ����

This is what steers me away from keto i love fruit as a snack everything else keto I’m fine with but I need my fruits

Just remember Grapefruit affects many medications, including heart meds, so check with your pharmacist!!!!!!!

Hello Thomas. What can you say about apples? is it okey for a ketogenic diet?

Grapefruit is a blood thinner. So make sure you will not have any negative interactions with prescribed drugs.

What if an obese person wants to reduce their level of Firmicutes before fueling their probiotics with prebiotics? What would be the best way to remove them, long-term fasting?

Thomas, what about while we are fasting, when is the best time during the feed time to eat them, also I guess if I workout during the fasting period I can’t eat fruit for like a pre-workout snack like you mentioned in the video

Awesome! Love the videos! Can grapefruits ever be eaten on Keto Diet???

Are we able to eat prunes? Does drying process increase the sugar?

Thanks for the videos. Enjoyed this and found out things I did not know. Glad it’s beneficial. I drink about 1/2 bottle a day and am careful about the carb count.

SOOOOO omega 3 fatty acids from sources other than fish are not metabolized the same way so you actually use way way way less of those fatty acids than you would eating fish. Fuck I’m so smart!

Cherries? Also look up pomelo similar to a grapefruit but not as bitter

Will these fruits take me out of ketosis?
I know avocado won’t do it because I eat 2 daily,,

Thanks for the awesome info. I always get excited when I get a notification about a new post from you, I always know I will learn something new.

The lower the carbs, the more likely you’ll stay in Keto. These fruits quickly use up the 20-50g/day carb quota and it may kick you out of Keto for a little while but it will certainly benefit your health in a positive way. I personally see this as a certain type of carb cycling rather than true Keto.

How long will it stay good after opening? I bought a big bottle a couple weeks ago… Should I dump it?

Make sure they are organic strawberries, otherwise pesticides ingestion

Just wanted to take the time to mention I started Keto + IF about a year ago. In that time I have lost nearly 60lbs…and I’ve been cheating like crazy.
Keto works and if you have better discipline than me, it’ll work even better.

Don’t forget to mention the Guava, the healthiest fruit of them all!

What Fruit can we eat on Keto? I know its not a lot… a video on that would be so helpful.

This was just a hit from other beverages companies to try and shut down kombucha… wtf? 1/8th of an alcohol to a beer is enough to move it to a liquor store? What a dirty game they play… ITS GOOD FOR YOU AND YOU WONT GET DRUNK!!!

why are you calling avocados a high source of omega 3??? they have like 10-1 ratio of omega6 to 3

Oh, goody I get to eat strawberries! I like to go outside early in the morning and get in a run, and then when I come back in I like to blend up something (whatever I am in the mood for that morning) with vanilla protein powder and frozen fruit; sometimes I add cocoa to it to make it chocolate-y. Now that it is starting to get warm and humid out I especially need to be aware of replacing any electrolytes, etc. I may have lost but I have not been certain what fruits are okay. I’ve used strawberries before they turn the smoothie into a neat pink color and it tastes good, too.

Is there one good resource for finding glycemic index of foods?

Thomas, this video helped me understand the importance of timing. I’m on IF but I think I need to become more regimented to get my gut health together. Prebiotics in the morning, but what about probiotics? Same time, during the day, night? I saw others pose the question so I apologize if I missed your response.

I am a 57 year old white man, 320lbs, A1c of 6.2, blood sugar 95-120, taking Ozempic.5mg once a week, use berberine and milk thistle, eating KETO OMAD 4 days a week TMOA 3 days a week and intermittent fasting. Eating 12-20 carbs a day and 6-10 sugars a day. Walking once or twice a day.

I had a quintuple by-pass last august. Was on 500mg Metformin twice a day and could not get my A1c below 7.2. Changed to berberine and milk thistle and A1c dropped to 6.2 so far.

What brand has only 2 grams of sugar? I have never seen that. Its all 6G+ sugar per serving.

1/8th of a beer for a huuuge bottle. I think someone would struggle to drink enough to get drunk.

Wow I finally find someone who is in agreement that cantaloupe seeds taste great.

I’ve been working long days in the heat doing landscaping, pushing, pulling and lifting heavy stuff, and the thing I crave right after I get off work is kombucha. I like a beer once in a while but there’s nothing like a cold kombucha.

What about drinking GTs kombucha that has 16 grams plus of sugar. Is it still healthy at all or is it ruined because of that sugar content?

Thanks! But Gutzy is “packed” with sugar. Just eat asparagus and artichoke and be really gutsy!

Excellent series..well researched and easy to digest (pardon the pun)

Now that I’m feeling like taking control over my enteric bacteria! Thnx! I have to lose weight and I’ve always known what to do. I’m gonna need a probiotic encouragement group!��

2grams! I just read the back of this GTS brand..there’s 12, I feel tricked

2:00 why would you recommend ACV for ulcer and gastritis? In another video you even said that ACV would in fact worsen these two things. Maybe you meant only chlorophyll?

I brew my own…n drink it everyday…it.really cleans my stomach

I lost 36 lbs on the keto diet in 12 days. I’m never hungry and only seem to be consuming about 650 to 1000 calories a day. Making sure that I manage my micros, staying in that 70-75 20-25 and 5 range I’m fully in ketosis but I wonder if this is too low of a calorie count. Please lemme know if this is a problem or am doing good with range.

How can we make kombucha keto? Am following a keto diet and dont want to consume regular sugar kombucha, what can I use instead of the cane sugar?

Doc, I have ulcer in mouth that needs months maybe a month to heal. Once it healed soon will be back. Please explain what happened, how to treat it?

I still don’t understand how much is 1/2 container. 1/2 liter??

Sorry u said a scoby is a fungus it is not a fungus it is a culture of yeast and good bacteria way different than fungus

Can someone suggest more alcohol alternatives that can keep me relaxed for whole day? I have stutter and always stressed as hell
Thank you in advance

If only all doctors were like you then the whole of mankind would be in a much better place.

so can I eat this on keto diet, cause plum is too sweet, Im confuse

What about rice and potatoes they are good for testosterone. Does buckwheat effect somehow testosterone too except its good carb food. Does buckwheat have high amounts of phytic acid?

You can get past the tartness of grapefruit by sprinkling a tiny bit of sea salt over top.

Dr. Berg some day it is bad for the liver. And there is fructose in it. Is that true? Fructose is really bad for you.
Thank you for the video, I was hoping you would do a kumbacha video!!!! ��

When I first began drinking Kombucha on a daily basis, I ran into some unexpected health concerns. I have cardio issues, and am on medications for high blood pressure and heart disease. My blood pressure and heart rate dropped much lower than usual. I experienced unusual heart palpitations. Plus, I also was experiencing some mild sick feelings at times. Because of my cardiac concerns, I contacted my cardiologist office. They adjusted my meds and had me wear a monitor overnight. Well, after about two weeks, everything seemed to clear up. I have concluded, my body went through a detox. I just had a six month check up and the doctor agreed the Kombucha and detox was probably to blame. I love Kombucha, and continue to drink it daily. I enjoy brewing it at home once a week! I even had a infected tooth for over a year that seems to be healed and pain free!!

This is not kombucha. Real kombucha is a seaweed that’s dried and grounded to a powder it has nothing to do with any kind of fermentation.

Just subscribed. This guy is great, very clear and straight to the point.

When I traveled to Europe I invited myself to some of their kefir and felt noticeably better after consuming that

I was avoiding fruit thinking it wasn’t allowed. I’m glad you made this video.

Sleep? Black. & Green Tea have tons of caffeine? Am I missing something

Hello Dr. Berg, I would like to ask you a question. What do you think about Yerba Mate ��? Does it fit with Kito? Ist healthy?

Hello! thanks so much for the good work. This video has opened my eyes and i NEED HELP. I am a flight attendant who flies very regularly and have realized how much bloated and fat we all get when we fly (workers). Could you please shed some light into the science of what happens in our gut when we travel? and also what foods and supplements will help out. There is very little material about it, any help would be great. Thanks in advance!

I started taking bile salts as of yesterday, and for some reason I’ve started to get that right shoulder pain Dr Berg talks about and pain between both shoulders. I’ve never had this pain before today. I also take acv tablets before my meal and only eat once a day. I still have my gallbladder, just trying to get in front of my health. Does anyone have an idea of why I’m suddenly having this pain?

Thank you so much! I wondered if drinking kombucha kicks me out of keto but I kept drinking a little bit at a time since I went on a keto diet. But now I know that I can keep drinking it and still be healthy in keto! Thank you so so much for all of your work! You help me so much!

Because I make a lot of berry and apple juice from the farm, I make my kombucha from pure juice. So basically it is apple berry vinegar, so no tea and no table sugar. I take a small amount straight before eating with the bile salts capsule and a small amount after to acidify my stomach. I can add some to flavor my drinking water before I go out to cut grass with the scythe.

Currently sippin on kombucha looks at the drink then back at my phone I don’t feel in danger at all

Best carbs… bread, rice, and beans! Oh yea potatoes too! Deep fried, just dont eat too much ��

Oh and what you think after watching snl and the view. The south china sea has oil, lots of it.

Grapefruit doesn’t taste sweet but it will likely raise your blood glucose level and not just a little. Test with a glucose monitor meter and judge for yourself.

What a monumental crock of S#!T CNN is nothing but a corporate propagandist shill org. As is all MSM.

holy shit cnn! are you fucking kidding me? 1/8 of a fucking light beer! this is what happens when uneducated producers try to solve a “problem” that 5 people claimed. like cmon. if a light beer doesn’t get you drunk do you really think a 0.5% drink will? also, how the hell does the liquor store BS make any sense? if you want to put kombucha in a liquor store then all your white claws go too. not to mention wine and beer

I looked at info on this mans nutrition information on his website. Which all of the info on his website is very enticing and informative as well just as his videos. Well unfortunately I didn’t get the opportunity to buy his plan at this time, but what really caught my eye is the fact that someone actually called me a day later even though I didn’t buy anything. Like an actual person, just to ask me about my goals and what I intend to get out the keto diet which blew my mind. The moral of this comment is that, its awesome to see a man like Thomas and his team who genuinely enjoy helping people meet their goals and learn more about nutrition, diet, and fitness. Keep up the good work brotha, your videos are helping a lot of people out there!

The 0.5% ethanol is dangerous, so the risks outweigh the so-called benefits, which are questionable at best. Thank you CNN for helping me see that! Now, with the bill that passed labeling some Kombuchas as alcohol I see how the government is hard at work, as usual, to ensure our well-being is looked after. CNN, you’re a champ!

bruh how much are you going to drink in one sitting where intoxication becomes a problem….

For clean and sober people whove spent years putting their lives back together, ANY alcohol can ruin their lives.

Just put a highly visible label on it warning that it contains alcohol, not some tiny little note no one can read.

If you believe in the health benefits of your product then you should have no problem labeling the fact that it contains alcohol!!!

Extremely thoughtless and I will not continue to buy it unless labeled correctly.

That’s ridiculous if they’re testing unrefrigerated samples. Other products that require refrigeration such as dairy and meat would also spoil if left out.

I hope you get more subscribers. Your pretty good. I’m new at this stuff and you help me break it down real good. Keep it up and thanks for sharing your information with us.

Honestly, I probably wouldn’t drink the mass produced kombucha that they are showing.
But that could be just because I make.my own and am very particular and anal about the end product.

China conspired with monsanto to screw up the honey bees so they could sell plastic as food and control the world food market in africa while they are at controling coltan used for our smart phones.

Let’s see now. If the legal blood alcohol limit in your state is.008, two 12 oz. 5% beers drank really quick on an empty stomach should get you there. My math may be fuzzy, but it seems to me that it would take twenty 12 oz. kombucha drinks to produce the same effect. I may make some and drink it or buy it at the supermarket, but I’m not likely to get it where I buy my whiskey.

cnn = cartoon news network, corrupt news network fda= federal death Agency

Kombucha needs to be classified as an alcoholic beverage. It would open up a new culture of alcohol to the world. If I had the funds to invest in opening a liquor store, I would make a Kombucha isle and I would promote the ones that say alcoholic kombucha on my channel to start up a new alcohol cultured trend. Brewing Kombucha. The next trend for IPA enthusiasts.

TV Channels…terrorism…kombucha is perfectly safe and healthy if it is produced with all means of safety…even in home…health is out there in nature…herbs,plants,tea etc….but money is the god for all them…so lets poison the people minds and scare them they say…do the best for yourself…go wild adopt holistic life!

Just when you think you can’t possibly hate cnn bs, fear mongering, mass media fake news anymore, YouTube recommends this garbage video.

The only side effect of kombucha is the smell of My bathroom after Im done it because then

Wow 0.5% alcohol? I may get more drunk accidentally swallowing my mouthwash

Everything they put out as “food” is to help you die faster. Things like Kombucha doesn’t serve their purpose huh? Not surprised. News people should all drink liquid plumber.

My favorite source of everything keto. How do I contact you about an interview on my podcast

You should probably put the alcohol content on the bottle and just allow adults to drink it.

What a bunch of bullshit it has 2% alcohol and it’s one of the healthiest drinks in the World. Keep drinking it people save YOURSELVES from health issues. These people are DISGUSTING for even saying something like this. It’s HORRIBLE and sickening but eat the frankenfoods and disgusting killer sodas with sugar that’s killing People

I finally found my solution for weight loss. All that worked was keto but I couldn’t stand eating 6-12 strips of bacon a day. Now I eat like 2500-3000 calories a day. Loads of fruit, veggies, yogurt, sauerkraut, kefir, coconut water and am losing weight. Just feed the body quality food: fruits and veggies.

Glycemic Index doesn’t tell the full story though. You need to take into account the fructose content, which is the real slap in the face for your liver.

I just watched a video from Dr. Berg and he said that artichokes are too high in carbs for a Keto Diet. ��Which really made me sad. I’m glad to hear you think they are ok on Keto. But I’m still a little confused, I guess it’s because they are so good for the gallbladder and the prebiotic fiber. Do you think the artichoke will knock you out of Ketosis?

If you have an existing over dominance of bad bacteria are these prebiotics still recommended?

Gutzy sounded good until I read the net carbs. This would have to be a meal replacement. I like the rest of the video just not too sure about Gutzy for me on a Keto but if not on Keto would be a great source.

2:39 That fluctuation in bacteria may explain why ulcerative colitis fluctuates so much. You can have a flare up in one day, and at the end of the same day be almost back to normal, or the converse (be normal and have a flare up).

He says facts but there’s no empathy when he says it. Scripted and practiced which kinda turns me off to what his saying. I’m sure he started out stating things he could relate too(from experience). If he did it at home would just feel more real this YouTube channel feels like a TV show. Chris jones youtube feels real not saying his not legit but his cooperate. But hey good info pay your bills take care of your family bro. Feldge fitness feels more honest not like his speaking off a paper like a actor.

being too far into keto is not healthy. it’s harmful to your gut bacteria which you need to live. you need things like kambucha tea and dietary fiber to keep your gut biome alive.

Wow more hidden advertisements for products you can make more money from.. The main reason your channel got so popular in the first place is that you seemed to give unbiased helpful advices without trying to sell anything.. Why not sit back and watch your youtube ad revenue roll in and rather do some sponsored stunts on the side??

How often can you eat these fruits? One serving per day, or is any more okay?

Are there any way to cook some of these prebiotic food? Like blanch, boil, steam, stir fry? Which one would give you the most benefit from it?

At what time is it best to take kombucha tea?
Can I take my apple cider vinegar in the morning and afternoon and take my kombucha before bed time?

If you are sensitive to inulin and other FOS, is Acacia an option?

Asparagus special anti oxidant, Grapefruit stimulates liver to utilize fat as fuel <=> Master-Manipulator, Buckwheat good stuff

Thanks for the video, please give some more examples of foods one can eat that help with this?

I’m concerned about the amount of carbs that are in the gutzy products. Will they kick me out of ketosis?

Well… Yeah. All they offer on flights are high lectin foods. Wheat and peanuts aren’t helping anyone.

Hey I made a contribution to your live q&a but didn’t get an answer can you reply and answer is it ok to have sugar or something sweet once a week or sometimes as a treat if you been doing good on keto and if

I love a good cold bottle of Kombucha. Sipping on some right now.

Hey Thomas, will you make a video on top Pre-Workouts? I used to take C4, but now I am taking Beyond Raw Lit. I want to know if it good being on Keto.

what about sugar cane. I notice when i consume sugar cane, i lost fat in general especially belly fat.

What about pilots and cabin crew…they’re not all obese? How does it affect them?

Hi Thomas, which is your best video explaining about protein powders. In past videos, you explain that you like Pea protein and why. I’ve watched so many of your videos recently, I can’t find it. Thank you for the great content, it’s helped me a lot.

I am diabetic this video was extremely helpful thanks Thomas!!

Don’t consume anything “Kosher”.

Judaism’s Strange Gods by Michael A. Hoffman

I love healthy food if it’s taste as good as its looking and I find out the secret����

The clip of you eating the asparagus lol. Great info as always, Thomas

This is very interesting. So, if I’m on a keto type diet, how often and how much buckwheat should I be eating?

So… What you think of antibiotics??? Lets say you have a ear infection, what would you do?

I saw an hypothesis years ago about the appendix being a reservoir for those good bacterias after we had an episode of gut flue etc… they can colonized again. If like me, you had it remove, you stratégie with a stick more than others…

Thanks! I’m keto and my gut health seems to be off a bit. I will try the artichokes and asparagus.
