    I was born prematurely at 7 months in the early 1970s as a twin...was in an incubator for 6 weeks! Also, I was raised in the inner city and went to subpar public schools. I ended up graduating from Rutgers on the Dean's list; then went onto Seton Hall Law and graduated with 3.2 GPA. Subsequently, I passed both the NY and NJ bars (taken days apart) on the first try! The point I'm making is that, by all physical and environmental accounts, I should have been physically and mentally defective--but the Most High God saw different and supernaturally intervened in my life!🙏🏾🙇🏾‍♀️👼🏾

    Since I know that I am pregnant my eating habits have changed so much. I dont even force this but I crave Vegetables and Water 95% of the day, I also love apples ( I usually dont do that) and unhealthy food doesn‘t taste the same to me as before.

This isn’t to shame you, your parents, grandparents etc. OBVIOUSLY you should also be eating healthy before your pregnancy. The point is to explain how nutrients impact growth.

    As an African living in the US this video has been eye opening. This man spent $250 on a book and so much money to get educated about the same things my indigenous aunties, uncles, cousins, grandparents and my village passed down to me as our culture, traditions and heritage. Its always funny when I hear in some Americans will refer to our indigenous ways of living as primitive while you have to spend a life time studying and buying all these expensive books just to come to the same conclusions and affirm our indigenous living ways. I feel so privileged to have a community that can pass down such wisdom to me, now I realize not everyone is as lucky as we are and its important to preserve those traditions.

    I had 3 miscarriages in my mid to late 20's during the 1st trimesters. I was taking Folic Acid Supplements for al 3 pregnancies and al 3 embryos were tested afterwards for genetic abnormalities. Al 3 had some sort of chromosome abnormality. My gynea tested me for MTHFR mutation and I have the C1298C homozygous mutation. Immediately started taking Folate/active folate suplements instead of folic acid supplements and today I have a healthy 2 year old daughter and another healthy daughter on the way. Providing your body with the correct nutrients and vitamins definitely plays a big role in the health and development of you baby❤

      I had one miscarriage in 2015 and 2 miscarriages this past year for a total of 3 miscarriages. I lost them between 7 and 9 weeks along. Our loss in August 2023 and December 2023 we tested for chromosomal abnormalities and both had abnormalities. Baby girl that went to Heaven in August had Turner’s syndrome and trisomy 5. Baby girl that went to Heaven in December had trisomy 22.
      I’m pregnant again right now. The prenatal I take (full well wellness) has the active folate but I’m taking an iron supplement (blood builder) that has folic acid. I’m so thankful I ran across your comment and will stop that iron supplement until I’m not pregnant anymore.
      4 weeks 1 day along, so I believe there is time to fix this before this baby develops a genetic abnormality!

    I’m 33. I started eating healthy from day dot. My mum didn’t allow us to eat processed food very often. I was the only kid at school that didn’t get cake or muesli bars or packaged yummy things in their lunchbox. I was always very jealous of what other kids had. The only treats/junk we got was an ice cream or chocolate once a week on a Friday after school. I’m 175cm tall and have been around 63kg (give or take a kg or two) since I stopped growing at 14 - and quickly returned to pre-pregnancy weight after I had both of my kids. I’ve never been overweight, in fact, I’ve always been quite lean and athletic, I don’t have any chronic health conditions and don’t take any medication. My siblings are the same. I’ve also got all 32 teeth and only ever 1 filling. I’m very grateful for my parents teaching me how to eat properly as I never had to unlearn bad habits. Now I’m teaching my kids how to eat properly and look after their bodies. My kids love fresh fruit and veggies. I never had a problem with picky eating as I gave them all the fruit and veg when they started eating as babies. Healthy eating starts in childhood. As a parent, I believe it’s one of the most important things you can teach your children. Love your videos Dr.Berg!

    My boyfriend introduced me to a healthy diet (and hatha yoga) at age 25. His siblings are naturopathic doctors and taught him about natural health. He never judged my cooking, just had a sort of 'learn by example' attitude. Every time I was at his house, it was like being on a retreat. The food was just so yummy and my body felt great! Slowly, I started buying more organic groceries and learned how to cook properly. It's amazing what a difference a nutritious diet makes to your life! I've never felt more in control of my own body and energetic than now (age 27). We're getting married next year, and I can't wait to raise kids with him living the health lifestyle he introduced me to. 🥰

    You can’t imagine how incredibly difficult correct eating is, when debilitated with severe morning sickness. I used to say ‘any food kept down is a good start, and if it is healthy, it’s a bonus’. Said by one who typically eats very healthy food. Absolutely nothing helped the morning sickness, and especially nutrient-dense food was difficult to both prepare and keep down.

Try to explain your intense morning sickness to your OBGYN, which kinda sounds like Hyperemesis gravidarum(just an assumption). Help may be available but definitely go in to get IVs for hydration, if needed. It’s so tough but seek help. Don’t let yourself deteriorate, take care.

It does very thoroughly elaborate on the importance of mineral-rich soil & the importance of eating animals which have had a nutrient-dense diet, green-grass instead of colourless hay, etc. It talks about the importance of regenerative agriculture but only from a level of understanding we had reached in the 1930s when the book was first published. I only purchased the £10 version initially however the extended versions ranging between £25-£35 with an extra 200+ pages are on my to-buy list as I realised I wanted to re-read the first one sometime in the future, however an extended version would add immensely to the already-priceless value of the initial works so that’s what I’ll be buying in the near future :)

I only knew about "organic" and non gmo. Nothing about vitamins, toxins etc. I found out about my issue with gluten in college when I actually had it to eat and slowly from there my knowledge has grown. I'd say now at 26 is the healthiest and most knowledgable I have ever been but I started really caring about it in college at about 19 years old. I'm pregnant with baby #3; so this is very helpful!

    Wonderful advice!

As a biochemist (mineral therapist) my priorities where on the minerals you mentioned to produce the vitamins i needed. And for folic acid, well i prefer natures version - folate! The one we evolved to uptake and utilise. So i was getting all my folate from growing pea microgreens and getting this dietarily.
    The blood results showed perfect levels, nice high folate and solid iron levels - nothing to worry about
    I Followed none of the mainstream advice on pregnancy nutrition (and like you mentioned, most doctors have a massive blind-spot for nutrition!)
    Focused on lots of grass fed meat and fats, heaps of microgreens and supplemented only with biochemic minerals / biochemic trace elements.
    Bub is kicking away strong right now, and all tests are showing perfect levels and development so far 🙂

Because of Dr bergs videos and all I've learned I'm always talking health and I think it makes some people irritated , oh well their loss , I've said it before and I'll say it again " if you don't have good health nothing else matters !

    Hello Dr. Berg! I am very familiar with the information you presented. I'm 36 and just had my second child in 4 years. I started eating healthy in my early 20s but discovered my journey to REAL health at 28. I was sure to eat healthy, take supplements and do several detox and cleanses before both pregnancies. During both pregnancies, I was very conscious to eat and supplement healthy fats, I took 100mg a day of Europharma Tri-iodine, Progurt Deep Sea Salt Caps, Progurt Probiotics, Ion Biome Gut Health, 1000mg of methylfolate, and Emerald Labs Prenatal vitamin, magnesium glycinate, etc etc etc. My 4 year old eats very healthy and my infant is breastfed. Both have nice wide palates for their teeth and no malformations. This information you are sharing is so so so vital for all women and men to start before pregnancy! Men, this info is also crucial for you to have healthy sperm! great job!!!

      To my new understanding, one needs way more than 100mg of iodine. Japanese use a huge amount of it and don’t have the same issues we have related to iodine. One can do different types tests to see if one is deficient. I have started to experiment with higher doses of it now, based on this new data.

Started P-90-X at 21 & found Weston A. Price's information too. At that point I was obsessed with nutrition! I was 29 when I started keto & found Dr. Berg shortly after that in the same year. Dr. Berg resonates with everything I've ever found on my own & has an amazing amount more wonderful information! Dr. Berg ...and Karen, are the best! 🙏💝

I was blessed enough to be able to breastfeed her for over a year. Unfortunately, I wasn’t eating healthy in that time. So I let her down, in that respect.

    I am 78 years old now. I read all the books that a nutritionist from UCLA, Adele Davis wrote back in 1966 including “Let’s Have Healthy Children”, “Let’s Eat Right to Keep Fit”, and her cookbooks.
    She really impressed me so I began my dietary changes by drinking Pep-Up, her concoction that contained brewer’s yeast, whole raw milk, powdered milk, all-blend oil, magnesium oxide,granular lecithin, 2 raw eggs, and frozen orange juice concentrate. It took a while to get up to her 1/2 cup of brewer’s yeast but eventually I drank this every day and so did my husband. It made a definite change in our health and started us on the path to healthy eating, real food instead of junk food. I am sure it is why we are both very healthy today.
    You bring up many of the topics she mentioned and have the added benefit of the ability of Science today to actually know why the things she recommended work.
    Thank you for your work and your videos. You reinforce everything I learned from her so many years ago.

    Then I started eating healthy foods. I choose basic ingredients and choose fiber-rich foods. I became fit and felt amazing. That was the first time in my life I felt amazing. I wanted to keep that feeling so I tried to continue that. Now I am 29 and pregnant with my 2nd child. First pregnancy was amazing, but I had no breast milk at all, so this time I want to supply myself with all the healthy foods.

      Congratulations. I haven't had many cravings, except for sauerkraut, yoghurt and oranges. Since following the Weston A Price pregnancy diet from 2 weeks of conception, so consuming a lot of Vit A from eggs, fermented cod liver oil and liver pate. Was taught at school to give a pregnant lady liver, and when I saw they had opposed this, I looked into it, found Weston A Price info and the research that demonised vit A is based on supplemented vit A, and not from foods.
      I have had very few cravings for junk food, although am loving cheese at the moment so perhaps loving pizza too, but overall I have no cravings for sweet things, but still eat the occasional chocolate bar. No morning sickness either. I think it's the high saturated fat diet I am having. It completely satisfies the body.
      Best wishes for you and baby.
