7:10 How to make ice cream

Today, I’m going to tell you about the healthiest ice cream and the worst ice cream!

The worst ice cream for your health is Ben & Jerry’s! It contains cream, liquid sugar, skim milk, more sugar, brown sugar, soybean oil, and tapioca flour. There are 49 carbs per serving, with 3 servings in a single pint! That’s around 35 teaspoons of sugar!

Breyers ice cream contains 21 grams of carbs and 18 grams of sugar per serving. Breyers uses high fructose corn syrup instead of cane sugar.

Breyers vanilla ice cream is a step up from the other flavors. It contains milk, cream, sugar, xanthan gum, and natural flavors.

Breyers Carb Smart ice cream is their low-carb ice cream option. It contains maltitol syrup, which can cause gastrointestinal problems. It also contains soluble corn fiber and sucralose, a chlorine-based sweetener.

Haagen-Dazs is a better option. It contains cream, skim milk, egg yolk, cane sugar, and natural flavoring with 14 teaspoons of sugar compared to 35.

Keto ice cream contains cream, water, egg yolk, erythritol, strawberries, and soluble corn fiber. One pint contains 30 grams of sugar alcohol, which can create digestive issues.

Rebel ice cream contains 0 grams of sugar per pint. It contains cream, erythritol, egg yolk, chicory root fiber, milk protein isolate, carob gum, and monk fruit. This is a good option!

Simple Truth frozen dairy dessert doesn't contain 10% milkfat, so it cannot be called ice cream. It contains inulin, allulose, maltitol, erythritol, milk protein concentrate, coconut oil, guar gum, monk fruit, and stevia. Around 30% of this dessert is fiber, and it contains 39 grams of sugar alcohol!

Don't choose an ice cream just because it says it’s keto-friendly. Check the ingredients!

The healthiest ice cream is homemade ice cream. To make a truly keto-friendly ice cream you'll use allulose as the sweetener. Honey is also a good option, but it won’t be 100% keto-friendly.

Homemade ice cream recipe:
1 cup organic grass-fed heavy cream
2 pasture-raised, organic egg yolks
3 tbsp powdered allulose or 1 tbsp honey
1 pinch sea salt
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
½ cup pecans or walnuts (optional)

Directions:
Blend the ingredients and freeze for 4 to 5 hours.

Alternatively, you can add all ingredients to an ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's instructions. Enjoy your healthy ice cream!

  • In my country, Indonesia, we made traditional ice cream using coconut milk, shredded coconut, a little salt, and unrefined cane sugar. Just blend everthing with crushed ice cubes, then stir it vigoriously. Sometimes we add boiled mung beans, or red beans, or avocado or jackfruit or pandanus leaf for variety of flavour. No artificial ingredients and it's really YUMMY!!
  • I used to get sleep the same way he did. I call it "Intermittent Fatting" I got sleep, but I also got extra blubber.
  • Ice cream tasted better when I was a kid back in the 1970s, because my grandparents had an ice cream maker. The ingredients were all natural. I'm not just being nostalgic either.
  • I’d LOVE to know what these companies consider a “natural flavoring”
  • It's nice that Dr.Berg told us about his venture in the ice-cream market! I REALLY appreciate when people talk about their failures or setbacks, it takes guts, transparency and maturity to do so. In a world made of shadows, mirrors an fakeness, it's always refreshing to see true people that talk about their real experiences (good or bad). Thank you!
  • @tf8187
    Frozen fruit, coconut cream & a scoop of protein powder blended to a thick consistency.
  • "Natural flavorings" could be anything. I always assume it's very toxic when they list that vague ingredient
  • I am a recent cardiac patient. My doctor told me out of all the foods, to avoid it would be ice cream, which is odd, because I was never a heavy ice cream eater. I saw a video where Bryers does not fully melt even after one week due to all the unhealthy added chemicals.
  • @bobhoran9778
    I gave up on ice cream 18 months ago. Really not missing it at all. Went on a healthy keto diet and have lost 44lbs. Have to stick with it. It’s my new normal.

Thank you Dr Berg! Bon Meowpetite!😺🍧

    Here's my chocolate ice cream recipe: 16 ounces of heavy cream, 16 ounces of whole milk or coconut milk, 3-4 tablespoons cocoa powder, 6 to 8 tablespoons allulose/monk fruit powder, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, half cup almonds (optional). Shake up in a 5 cup Rubbermaid container with a lid and freeze overnight.
  • Only Haagen Dazs is the only commercial brand even close to real ice cream. It's sad, because Breyer's and Ben & Jerry's used to pride themselves on their ingredients. Now they're junk. Thanks for the recipe (with honey). Will be trying that one out.
  • @halahfy9838
    I don't feel sad anymore, not eating ice cream .2 years now no sugar thank you Dr .Berg 🎉🎉
  • I put frozen raspberries (or other berries) in the blender and mix with cream. Thats it.
  • @gnjkimble
    I have a grandbaby who couldn't do eggs so i made some ice cream from scratch using 32 oz of half & half, an Avocado for the fat, cocoa powder, sea salt and dates. Stuck it all in a blender, froze it, broke it up, blended it, froze it and blended it. I don't have an ice cream maker. Turned out really good. Very creamy.
  • @scottymac101
    my ice cream is one can of coconut cream one tub of whipping cream vanilla extract sugar of your choice and a quarter to half a cup of Baileys to stop it from freezing too hard, nice but not needed😀 beat and freeze
  • @floy70
    We have a guy who makes ice cream in the area and sells it in a food truck. Best stuff I ever had and he doesn’t use any sugar. Mainly organic local heavy cream.
  • @RacerX888
    One of the 2 guys who invented Ben & Jerry's died from eating their ice cream. That's all you need to know.
  • @joymurphy3195
