cane sugar is very similar to pure white
0:03
sugar except it's made exclusively from
0:05
sugar cane instead of sugar beads it's a
0:08
sugar that's processed much less than uh
0:11
white sugar but because it's processed
0:13
less than white sugar it's only slightly
0:16

you hi this is Anita from reluctant low
0:27
carb life today we're going to talk
0:29
about sugar you know that white
0:31
substance that we all love so much that
0:34
sweet tasting things that we eat way too
0:37
much of yes sugar and today I'm going to
0:40
answer the question is cane sugar keto
0:43
friendly you know cane sugar is a type
0:47
of sugar that many people consider to be
0:48
a more healthy sugar it's like almost
0:52
like a it looks almost like a brown
0:53
sugar can be a little bit lighter than a
0:55
brown
0:56
sugar but some of you wonder well you
0:59
know if I can't use white sugar why
1:01
should I use cane sugar isn't it keto
1:03
friendly in a more healthy sugar cane
1:06
sugar is very similar to pure white
1:08
sugar except it's made exclusively from
1:11
sugar cane instead of sugar beads it's a
1:14
sugar that's processed much less than uh
1:17
white sugar but because it's processed
1:19
less than white sugar it's only slightly
1:21
healthier than white sugar is for you so
1:24
when people advertise and say this is
1:26
made with cane sugar this is so much
1:28
more healthy for you the truth is it's
1:30
only just slightly more healthy for you
1:33
than white sugar is you know there's
1:37
type of sugars that you should avoid on
1:40
the keto diet and on any type of
1:44
diet and here are some of those
1:47
sugars it is important for you to
1:49
understand this because when you are on
1:52
a keto or a low carb diet it is
1:56
important that you understand the sugars
1:59
that you can cannot eat and many times
2:02
many people will advertise and they will
2:04
say oh this is produced with this sugar
2:07
so we think it is more healthy when
2:09
really it is not one of those sugars is
2:12
agave sugar it's actually agave syrup
2:15
it's known it's a syrup which is from
2:17
the agave nectar and is a sweetener
2:19
commercially produced using several
2:21
species of agave it's a form of sugar
2:25
and it should be avoided on a keto diet
2:28
um of course cane sugar which is made
2:30
100% from sugar cane high fructose corn
2:34
syrup is also a sugar that should be
2:37
avoided as is honey you know honey many
2:40
people consider honey is a natural sugar
2:42
should be able to eat sugar or eat honey
2:45
but you know even though it's it's a
2:48
sugar that should be avoided along with
2:50
maple syrup you know even though honey
2:52
and maple syrup are more healthy for you
2:55
than many other types of sugar they are
2:57
also sugars that should be avoided as
2:59
has lots of you know different types of
3:01
the raw sugar that you will find or even
3:04
coconut sugar those are all sugars that
3:07
should be avoided on a keto or a low
3:10
carb diet and the reason is is because
3:13
even though some of these sugars may be
3:15
more healthy for you than let say pure
3:18
white sugar they're still going to react
3:21
in your body the same way as is pure
3:25
white sugar you know if you had a choice
3:28
between you know maybe using a maple
3:30
syrup and a white sugar yes the maple
3:33
syrup would be better as with the honey
3:34
would be better but it also is going to
3:37
react the same way if you in the body
3:39
especially if you are insulin resistant
3:42
and you are dealing with insulin issues
3:44
which the low carb diet will be able to
3:47
help you with also if you have a sugar
3:51
addiction many of these sugars will act
3:54
the same way with the sugar addiction as
3:56
the pure white sugar does so when you're
3:58
in the store and you products that are
4:00
labeled with we you're producing this
4:02
with honey we're making this with a
4:04
really good Sugar We're making it with a
4:06
very pure sugar or a different or
4:09
coconut sugar these sugars basically
4:11
will react the same to you as will white
4:14
sugar the one of our favorite sugars for
4:17
natural sweeteners which we talked about
4:19
before is the monk fruit sugar or Stevia
4:22
but Stevia I don't like quite as well as
4:23
monk fruit sugar I like monk fruit sugar
4:26
I feel like the taste is good it doesn't
4:27
really have a strong aftertaste and it's
4:30

4:33
