My husband suffered with debilitating vertigo for 20 years. One morning we were about to have our morning coffee and he said, “I don’t think I’m going to have coffee today because I start feeling bad after I drink it”. He did not experience any vertigo from that day since and it’s been about 1year. He found that any consumption of caffeine, whether it be tea, coffee, soda, would bring on the vertigo. I hope this helps someone, God bless❤
This certainly helps, I experience it. Thanks.
My doctor also said do not consume consume chocolate alcohol and white light bulbs must be avoided
Thank you for your information ❤
Thanks a lot for sharing
It could also be related to migraines. Vestibular Migraine and BPPV are very common. If you treat the migraine with diet , for instance, no caffeine, chocolate, ( Migraine diet)..and if needed a migraine prevention medication helps too. God bless anyone suffering with vertigo, it is horrible.
Ill save you ten minutes....the answer is Vitamin D w/ K2. The anount varies on age, weight ethnicity and location of living. Vitamin D will help lower free calcium in the body. The calcium is getting hung up in the ear effecting equilibrium....Your Welcome 😉
Thank you
Thank you
Thanks! 😊
Thank you 🎉
Ur the real mvp
I'm doctor, 59 years,I suffered from vertigo and headache for many months, got my every test done including xray PNS, chest, CT head. Audiometry, Epily maneuver etc. My vitamin D was also normal. At last the cause of headache and vertigo turned out to be due to butter I was using in morning breakfast. Vertigo was quite severe. Food allergies should be considered for vertigo and headaches
I stop taking aspirin cuse gave me vertigo. Some hot meals too.
How to find out what is causing this exactly I am having this and I am new to this
Hey Doc, did you do just a basic food allergy blood work test?
Was indeed bppv or just some other dizziness?
Butter? Like made from milk fat and salt, or was it some type of butter flavored spread?
Hahaha doctor watching you tube chanels, not very busy doctor
I’ve suffered from this for years it’s horrible. I was praying yesterday about this and tinnitus so this video is very timely.
I recently gave up not just gluten, bit ALL grain. My tinnitus disappeared. Not sure how long it took. I noticed when it was there. But I'm guessing took a month or so.
No one notices when they don't have it!! So I can't say how long it took but it's been gone for about six months, I'd guess, and I dropped the grain seven months ago. DOn't know if this will work for you, but it's worth a try. ALso ALL joint pain is gone!!
Try the steady coach free course. I take Dr bergs vitamin d3 with k2 they are the best
I have tinnitus, very disturbing. What are some of the grains you give up?
@@authenticbusinessentertain153 For four months, ALL of them!! Everything was fine for over a year, then I cheated and ate some cheeze-its and a couple of other things. Rash and ocassional mild tinnitus came back. So, I'm back to NO grain again. FOr a couple of months, at which point I will try rice once in a while again.
My dear mother passed away three months ago. She had this problem for a few years. She saw many doctors but her problem never went away😢. Live long doctor Berg🙏. The world would have been much better if we had more doctors like you. God bless you❤️
Hugs ❤
@@goshdarnit ❤️
She might had migraines without the headache. Many doctors don’t have a clue..
I am so sorry for the loss of your dear Mum!
I'm very sorry for the loss of your mom 😔 🙏🙏
Vertigo is one of the most terrible feelings in this world. Thank you so much for addressing this problem, Dr. Berg. You are such a HUGE help to us all!
Try migraine.
No. Dont.
@@Plethorality Vertigo is far worse...l suffered with both years ago...the migraines have ceased...but l still suffer Vertigo.
For 8 years I was in bed with vertigo that I describe as violent attacks (like a seizure) and or slow dizzy attacks that instantly made me sick for hours. 8 solid years of this to the point of literally praying I would die. Thousands of $$$$ to doctors who did NOTHING, NOTHING!!! They even treated me like a hypochondriac sometimes………this was throughout my entire 40’s, if I find out that a damn vitamin deficiency was causing this??? Someone is going to pay!!
…..moreover, my life was destroyed. I have never fully recovered socially or fully physically because I STILL have it just not nearly as horrible as before.
@@jefflanham1080 I am so sorry to hear of your experience. I lost time away from work because no doctor was able to diagnose my condition back when it first happened to me. The spin-off was horrendous in my work life, as a result. I believe going to the sea and being knocked around by the waves helped me to alleviate the terror of that feeling because I got relief. Later on, I learnt about vertigo and upon research, I realized that there are simple exercises (which I found on UA-cam) that could help to fix it quite easily, so far, when it occurs.
I started getting random vertigo attacks several years ago and also became vitamin D deficient around the same time yet no doctors caught this. Thank you so much for this information! As everyone has agreed, this is a horrible thing to go through.
No problem. Glad to share this information. Take care.
Dr.porue no hCr este vídeo en español? Sufro hace muchos años de vértigo y creMe este problema a aruiDo toda mi vida no llevo una vida normal no puedo hacer nada vivo sola y crrMe es desesperante
I got rid of years of vertigo by doing these exercises devised by Dr Carol Foster. Just google : half somersault exercises for vertigo. These exercises put the displaced ear crystals back to their places. My problem was with my left ear, so ONLY did the exercises for the left ear. The relief is instant.
I’m type 2 diabetic, I suffer with vertigo, my doctor said not to take d3, I used to take it before then I stopped 😢
Vertigo sucks!
I was told in the E.R in the U.S I had a psychotic episodes. I was stunned, they could make an assumption like this. They gave me psychotic drugs..well you can imagine I got worst and was sleepy all day. Went to Mexico and the doctor there aced it! Bening Vertigo. This happen right after I gave birth to my child. One really needs to advocate for one’s health and take more than one medical opinion ; specially in concerning health issues. Dr. Berg thanks for bringing awareness to this condition ❤
Absolutely! There’s a reason they call it practice. Many times they’re just making educated guesses, the operative word being guesses. Many times they’re too busy to take the time to find a definitive answer.
Only in America. They are sadly lacking in Clinical experience.
I have got unbalancement issues not so much spinning just a pushing feeling in my head feels floaty I have scans test and no diagnosis pls help
What did the doctor in mexico guve you???
@@wenn-ll9bc Dr did not provide medication but said episodes will come and go but there was no worry. Extreme stress may trigger it but not daily stress. I find if you raise your head a bit with a pillow it actually helps. Vitamin D helps.
I suffered from this for 14 years it was so bad I had to go to a balance clinic. I suffered a constant sense of motion even when I wasn't spinny. The maneuver did not work. They told me this was my new normal. The episodes got worse the last 5 years ago. I had new neuro symptoms like constant falling, high stepping gate and no depth perception. Finally went to see a chiropractor. He said my Axis was off, the top vertebrae in your neck. He worked on me for 4 months and I started noticing my episodes had subsided, after a year my feeling of motion disappeared and for the last 4 years I am symptom free. I got more out of my chiropractor in a few years than I did all the specialist in 14 years. What a waste of that time. I am still going from time to time but I feel good and regained my confidence. Don't give up.
It’s actually called atlas. I have mine adjusted all the time. It helps.
Same! Activator chiropractic was most helpful and gentle. Often the C1 or C2 went out and caused the symptoms
I have the same symptoms and dealing with it for 10 yrs now, visited the best ENT, neurologist, name it all the docs but nothing helped me,They suggested to take anxiety meds but I was not for it. Now I stumbled upon this video and gonna try vit D3 with k2
@nimmikarthikeyan1984 any improvement?
🙏
My 104 y.o. grandmother has been having this the last few years. It’s amazing how these videos come up at the time needed. Thank you!
the Epley maneuver really works! It helped me and my sister.
god bless your grandmother. 104 years is incredible.
Alot time it comes from the gut. Try pre and probiotic or b4 powder. It's a white color
Wow!!!! May we know her secret of longevity..regards. to your grand Ma...
@@jivory6131 Thank you. I believe my Dad does give her something like that but I will check.
I woke up, in bed, with a vertigo attack. The room, the bed was spinning. Never experienced vertigo before. It was awful.
It's to ɓad!
Can you tell me when it went away and for how many days you've had it
Me too
Me to I have vertigo
I've been suffering with BPPV for almost 1 yr now. I had a bad vertigo episode hit me a week ago and had to go to a p.t appointment for a vertigo treatment. I left there feeling pukey and unsteady. 6 days later I watched this video and started vitamin d and k2 yesterday and i feel great. I got energy it's awesome. Thanks. Hopefully this will be my cure.
I suffered 3 years of vertigo. After I was prescribed Vitamin D3, my vertigo gradually disappeared. Thank you for sharing this video.
Good to know that. I hope the same happens with me. It has been two weeks I have started taking Vitamin D injection. There is improvement and reduction in vertigo but not fully cured.
@helenevion4868 I completed 6 injections once a week for last 6 weeks
I am suffer 2 yrs vertigo ,my life is destroyed,,,,my vitamins d level is 0nly 8 ng , doctor prescribe vitamins d injection ,,I hope I am successful
What dose recommend your doctor vitamin d deficiency
@@ruchirabanerjee6104what dose recommend your doctor,,same problem,,
I wld like to share with u my first encounter with vertigo. One morning i wokeup feeling my room spinning so fast and i was thinking in my heart how to go and see doctor. Thank God for His goodness i somehow pulled my pillow n laid my head on my pillow. Immediately the spinning stopped since then i dont have any more of it. Praise the Lord!
So god stopped your vertigo but lets children have their heads blown off in their classroom? Seems bizarre.
@@dragonwithagirltattoo598wow that's quite a reply Gez. Maybe you need to see a counselor or psychiatrist. Seriously!
I had dizziness so bad I didn't work or drive or do anything for a long time, I went to Drs and they never found anything wrong. But I was still very dizzy than one day I found a self help course on anxiety and learned that stress can cause dizziness, I started practicing all the advice In the course to lower my anxiety and the dizziness started slowly disappearing it's been completely gone for years now. Never underestimate the power of stress and the horrible physical body symptoms that it can cause
Thanks for your comment. I’ve been feeling like my body is veering off to the right? Is that vertigo? I feel disoriented. I also
Quit alcohol which I think doesn’t help the situation.
Chiropractic appointment ❤
@@emdieselify I don't drink and I have terrible vertigo for years, it comes and goes, sometimes its very severe. So its not the alco.
Was it the course from the steady coach? I just started it
& cortisol
I was diagnosed with Ménière’s disease and BPPV vertigo approximately 12 years ago. I’m only still very young. I tried several different therapies and some worked and some didn’t so I decided to do my own research and you’re absolutely right. Vitamin D deficiency is one of the major factors of my triggers. I still have vertigo from time to time and I may walk like I’m drunk haha but the Dr’s could only treat the symptoms but not the cause. I’m not cured but life is a lot better knowing the changes I made saved me from being house bound.
Also if you give up sugar, it will cure you, and water fast and keto.
@@overcomer1679 I'd really like to know what you mean by water fast. Do you mean not drinking water because I have never heard of that. I was told to drink at least 1 liter of water daily.
@@AKHWJ3ST Yes meaning to drink only water, don't eat or drink anything else.
Add Benfotiamine supplement every morning and see the wonders😊
@@overcomer1679 you still have to eat to get nurishment.
Oh my gosh I suffer from vertigo it's terrible. Thank you Dr Berg for your help I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy
yup, it sux big time....nothing worse....hope yours has been terminated
Not yet I'm going to give Dr Berg's supplements a try. Sometimes it's so bad I vomit all day 😞
Her a chriopractec adjustment on the atlas and c1 it's fixed my vertigo
@@nancyroger6185 yup. I've had it too twice in my life. It was really bad. Throwing up all night/day because of the fast spinning. Only the exercise of laying on a bed and doing that head movement thing twice a day made it go away after 10 days
I would wish it on Bill Gates no problem.
Trust me, vertigo...motion sickness, whatever you want to call it, is absolutely one of the worst things you could experience.....ugh, big time
I have it for 2 years imagine.
@@FJano12having it for 9 years cannot find the reason.
@@ramakrishnan9624 i have it since childhood more than 20 years and I lost all hopes of trying to get cure
I have had off and on since my last Stroke 07/2024
I have it for 3 years. All because of chronic emotional stress. I can't do anything. It's devastating.
My ex was an ENT doctor. I learned the Eply manuever at his practice and saw many patients with BPPV. I did the Eply manuever in office. Its simple and basically moves the crystal(s) out of the balance canal (where if thet are in either canal frew floating, your own movement causes crystals to move along the canal, causing dizziness, if the crytals are floating around the canal). It definitely works for BPPV patients but not all vertigo is caused by these crystals. This manuever can definitely help move them out of the canal to relieve symtoms.
Dr. Berg is spot on.
The Epley Maneuver was the ONLY thing that helped me years ago. BPPV was the absolute worst ever!
Unfortunately the Epley maneuver didn't work for my vertigo..
Theres also different manuevers for different areas the crystals may go into, just found that out in a book with different ones and where the crystals are.
@@LuvsSnoyou have to do dix halpike first as they watch your eyes then they figure out what manuver is needed.
@@wendyvillasenor8671do you mind sharing how you found the crystals in ur ears. Thk you.
Thank you so much for your help Dr. Berg . Vertigo is one of the worst conditions I’ve been experiencing. It’s so depressing and debilitating because there is nothing to make it go away. Thank you for your help. May The Lord keep you healthy and safe.
There are several effective vestibular suppressant drugs.
My Dad has this exact problem after suffering a stroke in January, will be trying this today, hope it works God bless you ❤🙏🏽
Tinnitus from stroke is quite different from this other condition...
@@flamingpieherman9822 Indeed, this type of vertigo is neither related directly to a stroke nor tinnitus. However I wish RR good luck in their endeavours.
Did it work? Sorry
Whenever I am reading about, or viewing a video like this, about the condition and treatment for BPPV I am thinking to myself that the presenter or author probably has never experienced BPPV in its worst form. If you have ever had this in the extreme, you would know that you have no control at all of your body and the very idea that you could easily fix this by way of a manoeuvre without assistance from other(s) is simply inconceivable. This is what happened to me the first time I experienced BPPV.
I was lying in bed and a wind gust caused the blinds in the window behind the bed head to bash against the window architrave. The noise startled me and I woke and tilted my head back and to one side very quickly (fright / spontaneous reaction) so as to see what was making the noise. Then, my head went into a very fast spin. My eyes were jumping from side to side at a very high rate. I involuntarily through myself out of the bed and ended up on the floor, pinned against the wall as my body tried to fight against the perceived movement in my brain. I started vomiting profusely (until there was nothing left to bring up) and my body dumped an enormous amount of fluid (sweat) such that I was dripping wet and my bed clothes were soaked. All this happened inside a couple of minutes.
It took 2 to 3 days before I could eat anything (in bed most of the time) and I had to take anti-nausea medication the whole time. It's bad (worst I have ever felt) and the very thought of inducing this experience again by way of a manoeuvre like the one described... well, I think I would rather die.
I did the maneuver on my own two different times when I had similar events that you described. If you have a friend or family member who can help, it would be much easier. The second time, I had my husband watch the videos and walk me through it. It is really hard to watch the video in that condition. Good luck!
Definitely see an ENT and vestibular therapist , but I know what you mean, I’m afraid to do the maneuver for fear it will dislodge the crystals again.
Just read about your terrible vertigo episode,I too had an episode a few days ago , I ran myself a bath and whent to lie back in the water and wham the spinning was terrifying I held on to the sides of the bath praying to god for it to end ,I lay there for some time and when it started to subside I was so scared to move in case it restarted . I honestly believe that unless you have actually experienced experienced this you would never understand how terrifying it is ,I get regular episodes but this was the worst ever and I live in constant fear of this recurring
I don’t do the Eply because the cure is worse than the experience. People who suggest it don’t know what they’re asking. The nausea lasts for the rest of the day. AND it doesn’t work.
I’ve been taking Vit d about 5k- 10k per day with K2, and i used to still get spinning vertigo when my sugar goes high despite that. I found that when i started taking Benfothiamine, which i learned about from one of your videos. some 2-3 years ago, i have not had spinning vertigo as much as i did and if i ever do get it, it is not as bad. Thanks for providing some life-changing info on YT. A lot of what I learned from you have drastically affected my life positively.
What is benfothiamine? Thk u
@@EJMG22 It is a fat-soluble Vit B1 Thiamine supplement that has been used for a long time in different countries and the USA. Dr Berg has a very good video on Benfothiamine. He specifies the dosage needed.
@@EJMG22Type Dr. Berg and Benfotiamine in the search box of UA-cam. It should pull up his recent video talking about Benfotiamine and how it helps. I actually ordered my first order of Benfotiamine 2 days ago and am waiting for it to arrive by mail. Find his video and hope it helps you.
You describe the vertigo I feel and I have difficulty explaining it to those who don't have it. Your mind realizes that the world around you is not spinning, yet your vision is showing otherwise. It's scary, especially when driving.
Thank you for your channel
Get an eye examination, slight eye misalignment cause vertigo and bad motion sickness.
My Goodness Don't Drive
This is amazing. I was diagnosed with BPPV about 15 years ago. I woke up one Sunday morning and the room kept spinning for no reason. I went to the ER because I was so scared. They said it was caused by a combination of a sinus infection and me recently traveling by plane. They prescribed meds that only made me sleep but I was down for over 3 weeks. Finally, an ENT did the epley maneuver to put my crystals back in my inner ear. I have suffered with vertigo off and on ever since. This makes me feel so much better. Thank you for the work that you do.
There is a tablet called SerC its marvelous its 32.95 in Australia but 20 tablets three tablets got rid of mine and mine was severe. 🌻☘
@@janettedavis6627 i take this med when ever i get vertigo and this really helps me a lot 3 times a day when ever i experience this problem
Epley may be necessary again. There is no dietary component.
I thought vertigo was caused by a Magnesium deficiency.
So you still have vertigo is what you’re saying ?
I was diagnosed with BPV and nystagmus years ago as a teenager. It's awful!! I also used to get horrible migraines as well, and usually the two (vertigo and migraines) seemed to go hand in hand. Last year I went to a new doctor, a D.O., who suspected I had a Vit. D deficiency. She checked my blood and it turns out she was right!! I was shocked because I live on a farm and am always outside. I never would have thought I was Vit. D deficient! She put me on a prescription dose of the vitamin and guess what .- no more headaches and no more vertigo!!! It only took 40 years but hey, better late than never!!
So Happy for You, that You got the problem Resolved.
I am happy to know that your vertigo is gone. Hope the same happens with me. I am suffering from vertigo for last two months. Even I am Vitamin D deficent (7ng) so I have started taking Vitamin D injection weekly.
That’s fantastic!
May I ask how long did it take for you to feel a difference with vitamin D? Did you take a high dosage product?
Thank you so much.
@@c.c.1900 It really didn't take that long, maybe three weeks? I take a prescription level dose of 50,000 IU. It's made a huge difference!
If you have a serious lack of vitamin D but get sun regularly please, please check your calcium levels. If they are EVER ten or above get off the vitamin D! You may very well have hyperparathyroidism! Vitamin D suppresses PTH hormone while simultaneously opening the flood gates to high calcium. Do NOT expect your doctor to know this and do not rely on "normal" PTH levels to tell you have it. Seek a diagnosis with a parathyroid center who specializes in this. Even endocrinologists fail miserably in detecting it. It could save your life.
I have been diagnosed with BPPV -- it's horrible and debilitating. It comes on with little warning and makes me feel like I'm dying. Thank you for this information, Dr. Berg!
I know the feeling, be strong and look for the cause, mine was cervical linked
Still trying to figure out what’s causing mine.
My d was checked and I’m too high at 104? I still get vertigo with my eyes move crazy like that shown and puke and puke. Last week had it and one whole day in bed and no food. I take 10,000 with K2 and I never miss a day.
Vicopentene and gingko biloba capsules work great also.
😂 I know that terrible feeling of " like I'm dying"....as if we have ever died.
I have suffered from severe vertigo for about 20 years. Thank you for this information Dr. Berg. Your video and your prescribed information has changed my life. Thank you. I will say I am one that does not take any medication whatsoever. I’m 64 and relatively in good health and don’t like taking any drugs. Not even aspirin. Thank you.
As a massage therapist for 28 years, I dealt with many cases of vertigo. Some were caused by whiplash injuries, while others were because of head forward postures due to sleeping with a large pillow or sitting in a lounge chair with a big headrest, or even looking down for hours at books or knitting. The muscles in the front and back of the neck are meant to share the work of holding the head up and keeping the eyes level. If the head is too far forward because the sternocleidomastoids (SCMs) are shortened and tight, the person may feel dizzy and off balance because the eyes can’t tell them if their body is upright. They may also have pain in the back of the neck because now those muscles are doing all the work of trying to pull the 11 pound head straight up against the tight SCMs. They will go for therapy and want work on the sore back neck muscles, which stretches them and allows the head to go even more forward. The solution is to first stretch the skin lengthwise over the SCMs, which sends a message through the nerves for the muscle to initially relax. Then the therapist can work to lengthen the now desensitized muscles. Gradually the patient works over a period of days or weeks to reduce his pillow height when in a supine position to the point of being flat with no support, then painlessly letting the head go a little bit back off the edge of the bed, and then finally being able to reach the arms up and back off the bed as well. All these should be done to the point of feeling stretch but not pain, so that the body does not react to protect by tightening up.
Can you tell us what type of streches can help?
It might be funny to anyone but I got rid of my vertigo by the simple advice of my doctor. I went to her clinic cuz my vertigo came back after a year of not having it. I was wearing a shirt with an apple on it. She advised me to eat an apple a day for my sake. Not for my vertigo but for health sake. So I bought apples and dice 1 and ate them up. Never have vertigo ever since. I didn’t even use the pills she prescribed to me. Just chewed some diced apples a day. Maybe the chewing helps me get rid of my vertigo. Lol! 🤭
@@juliennespiteri1974 …..the one I tried to describe at the end of my comment is best, done lying flat on your back on a bed, gradually lowering your head to the mattress with different height pillows over the course of days or weeks, until you can get the head to go back off the edge a bit without pain. Rolling the head from side to side also helps to stretch the SCMs. Basically anything to get you from a forward head and shoulder position to one where you are completely upright, especially the head. Since I can’t show you pictures, you can try googling stretches for the chest and front of the neck. You want to lengthen the anterior muscles, and THEN strengthen the posterior neck muscles. Good luck.
Thanks.
Great information
This video is giving me the first shred of hope I’ve had in a long time. Been dealing with chronic dizziness nonstop for the past three years. Maybe this will finally help me get my life back.
Wishing you the best.
Check your diet. You may have some blood pressure issues and need to watch your sodium intake.
Motion sickness tablets work for vertigo.
vaccine did it to me more pots though
I suffer from this medical condition and it is debilitating! Vomiting, dizziness non stop, and I do this maneuver for a few times a week sometimes. My hubby helps me just in case I start vomiting. I also do some other movements with a ball that I bounce while tilting my head in various positions while I bounce. That also has helped me regain normality in my life. All these work out routines came directly from a specialist that worked at NASA; which, he put me through a testing workout in his clinic. Basically he definitely saved me!
My sister sent me this video. I had a horrible experience while on holidays. Couldn’t do anything by myself for over a month. Found this exercises mentioned he which helped me massively. Now ordered Vit D3+ K2. Thank you very much Dr. Berg ❤❤❤
Wait a month ? I feel like I am in same boat, but had blood tested Vitamin D is normal. I am in my 2nd month and some days it comes back but not too hard, but other day it clears fully.. wondering if you had similar experience where some days it was not there and other days it was mild but present ?
Wow! I went to MD's, Neurologists and Chiropractors over the last 20 years for this. I get the answer from Dr Berg in a free video. I am very thankful that this man devotes his time and knowledge to help us. So many informative videos. The best channel on UA-cam, in my opinion.

julie .... how much vit d you take. M in tropical country 1000iu of VitD is too much. I take 200iu only.
@@conanga …I live in Australia. I now take Ostelin Vit D 7000IU once per week (usually a Wednesday morning). 200IU is probably okay if you are outside a lot.
How long did it take for it to work? how long did you BPPV?@@juliefarrugia4669
You mean you didn’t opt for the experimental drug that’s 60% successful and $30000 a year? 😂
Woke up one morning room was spinning and bed felt like it was on water. I was up for 2 weeks str8 no sleep. I thought I was about to be out of here. It was worse then awful. I felt weak. Everytime i would try and close my eyes I would get dizzy then the anxiety would hit which made me feel like I was falling. When i went to the hospital they gave me anxiety meds, high blood pressure meds and the generic brand of advirt that starts with and "M". Right now it feels like im bobbing and weaving even when I lie down. I purchased some k2+d3 10,000 took it 2wice and still feel like im floating and bobbing and weaving in my head. Im able to sleep but not like I need and want too. I Will give it a week and see what happens but I dont like the bobbing and weaving feeling. Help me in the name of Jesus! Please Lord 😢
Some days I feel lightheaded and dizzy but I started exercising 3 to 4 times a week cut down on my sugar and dairy foods because the doctor said that can cause Vertigo I feel a lot stronger I still take my Vertigo medicine you can try to exercise and cut down on sugar it might help your situation but Vertigo is just a wierd thing you can ask 5 people what causes it and get 5 different answers for what causes Vertigo but praying you overcome this and return to your normal self
5g. Stop using your electronics so much. Get outside in the fresh air and sunshine more. I got an emf blocker / shield pouch for my cellphone. I turn it of at night and put it in the pouch. It really helps. Along with NO sugar, dairy or caffeine.
Hey. I just read this and it made me so sad. Try a gluten and dairy free diet , exercise, do meditation and try to live stress free as best as you can!
@Wisdom24-7 thank you it calmed down for about 2 months. A week ago I started getting the episodes again. I will take these advices you guys are giving me
@lisamarie8406 yes I am trying to live stress free. I have to get back into the gym but because of finances I may have to do walks for now.
I suffered a lot of this in my early twenties because of this... full of sad memories. Doctors were clueless, sadly. And more sadly there are lots of clueless doctors littered all over the place. It's quite a pity.
Thank you Doctor Eric Berg.
clueless doctors on BPPV ? they all are !
What was your level ? Maybe not dangerous.
I was diagnosed with this years ago. And my Doctor did exactly what you showed. He had me lie down and he turned my head and then had me roll over and sit up. He prescribed Meclizine. But, since I’ve been eating a keto diet and taking vitamin D I haven’t had any issues.
Dr did the test on me i sat up and threw up about a liter of liquid. He apologized and said it was the most severe he had seen.
@Zeus-X1 no, I haven’t had an episode in years
I was suffering with horrible debilitating vertigo for years. Turned out it was none of this. I went to an ent had all of these tests done. Turned out… It was my eyes. Divergence insufficiency. I went to several eye doctors that couldn’t figure it out, then went to a specialist who immediately saw the problem and diagnosed me. I was prescribed eyeglasses with special lenses and it changed my life. It’s not 100 percent gone but I can live almost normal. Staring at my phone or scrolling on my phone can make it worse. Exercising my eyes outside on walks helps. My glasses help. A healthy diet helps. Avoiding staring at my phone for hours helps. Good luck everyone. I hope you figure out what is causing your vertigo. I know how awful it is.
@imhappy83 yes! 🥰 I was disabled with vertigo. I’m not now. I hold a job and am always out etc.
What kind of specialist did you see? I've had dizziness 3 years, can't figure out why. I also have issues with my eyes. Optometrist and ophthalmologist says everything is fine, but it's not. It's preventing me from many things.
Go and check with ENT specialist
@@amr6559 just go to an eye doctor that is familiar with divergence insufficiency. And or to specifically check for that. I went to an eye doctor that specializes in like how brain damage or brain tumors affect the eyes. There are eye exercises you can do. That are very uncomfortable and bring on the vertigo but are necessary to help. Also the glasses with special lenses for divergence insufficiency to help realign the eyes. Keeping them in the right place.

Thank you so much! I was afraid this would be one of those sale presentation videos, but I was delightfully wrong. You truly are helping people. God bless you ❤
Thank you, I had an episode of BPPV earlier this year and since I've been taking the calcium tablets with Vit D and Vit K2 I am feeling much better.
I love that this doctor, gives the whole information without sending us to watch a looong video. I never watched those videos it makes me mad. Thank you Dr.
😂
My spouse had this years ago and we were terrified he was having a stroke. The epley maneuver worked. He used it occasionally naybe twice a year, but since going on Vit D3 plus K2, he hasn't had any issues. It's been many years.
Good to hear that. Thank you for sharing. Mind to tell which brand of vitamin D3 and K2 you bought?
Seemingly, out of nowhere, I began having episodes of vertigo. A couple of times, it has kept me confined to my bed for a day or two. I spoke with my doctor about it twice, and he assured me that it happens frequently to people in their mid-50s and later but offered nothing else. I've stopped driving for about 3-4 months now because of fear it will strike and I'll injure another driver. I have even spent a bit of time searching online for causes but wasn't able to find much useful info. This is the first I'm seeing about this epely method/procedure. Is this to be done during an episode of vertigo or can it be done when vertigo is not actively present? I'm asking because I don't want to trigger the vertigo -- by possibly moving a calcium crystal into the position where it may trigger the vertigo.
THANKS FOR SHARING.
I recently experienced vertigo suddenly and had all the symptoms listed in this video. It is frightening. Thanks to this video, I performed the Epley maneuver very...very.....slowly! No spinning. It has only been one day, but I can feel a huge difference. Thank you Dr Berg for all your hard work and dedication. Oh! And I am taking my D, K2 and spending time in the sun. Hopefully, never again vertigo!
Oh my goodness! I have been diagnosed with Vit D deficiency. AND I suffer with Vertigo all the time. I have neglected taking the vitamin as I should. Thank you, so much, for this information!!!
I have bad episodes of vertigo sometimes every month for more than 10 years. It was horrible! I had noticed that my vertigo got worse when I quit taking vitamin D3. I am now taking vitamin D3 and K2 to see that would help with my vertigo. Thank you Dr. for all your work! God bless!
What amount do u take it. Please.
I am taking 10000 IU Vitamin D3 and 100 mcg K2. Hope you feel better!🙏
@@ChiTran-gw7vr Tks. So much
I’ve had this condition a couple of times in my life. First time I had it was after a car wreck. It kinda corrected itself.
The next time was after my first time flying on a airplanes from Orlando to Greenville, SC.
I thought I had developed an allergy or something and my doctor was trying to correct it with a couple of rounds of antibiotics.
Then I was sent it an ENT specialist. He said “I can have you cured in 30 minutes”! Gave me these exercises to do. They were mostly exact to your exercise here but mine weren’t to turn to the opposite side but to hang head off the side of the bed turn head to the side of the dizziness until the spinning stops, turn face forward, sit straight up facing forward. Repeat for the same side until symptoms were gone. IT WORKS! Very rarely does it come back but when it does this exercise has been a blessing.
Thanks for sharing! Did it make you nauseated? I'm afraid I'll vomit if I try that.
@@denisea.9033 no nausea for me. Depending on your symptoms. You know everyone’s body is different.
@@JamieCamile495 good to know, thanks for responding.
@Denise A. At first when you lay back with your head turned towards the affected ear you may feel nausea but it will pass so just hang on for about a full minute without moving your position until the nausea stops then perform the other steps the same way of waiting til the nausea spinning comes to a rest.
@@randygarry3678 thank you for that peace of mind. It's only happened to me once, but I remember thinking I was going to be sick and quickly having to close my eyes to make it stop. Didn't wait around long enough to know if it would just go away.
This is a God sent! Bene having these vertigo’s shown up out of the blue for years. They just reappeared 2 days ago. And now I see this video in my account! The Universe is definitely listening and sending help! Thank you Dr! 🙏😇❤️
Motion sickness tables help with vertigo.
My friend had bad vertigo. Went to a ton of doctors and as usually they could not help her. I brought her a beehive and while she was cutting the grass she got 11 stings in her head. She applied baking soda on the head. By the day after the vertigo was gone. 5 years later still no vertigo. Honey bees can spot blockages and sting to unblock the energy. .....
Yeah I probably wouldn't recommend that somebody get bee stings in their head. Maybe Manuka honey would help
I want to thank you so much I woke up with this my hubby found your video and it works wow I’m fine now took about 31/2 weeks god bless you for all your videos!
I used to have this terrible vertigo experience very often since I started taking D3& K2 after listening yours pervious lectures I started feeling much better now I know the reason after listening to this lecture & I will try this more seriously on that proportions, Thanks Dr Berg
🌷❤👍
Years ago I was diagnosed with menieers disease which is having severe vertigo. I was told to lower the salt in my food as it was causing fluid retention in my middle ear. This helped greatly.
Same with me
@JUDGEMENT CAN YOU EXPAND WHY THIS COULD HAPPEN? I HAVE INCREASED MY SALT INTAKE SINCE IT HELPS MY LOW BLOOD PRESSURE AND COINCIDENTALLY I AM GETTING THE VERTIGOS WHEN I TURN MY HEAD.
THANK YOU. I AM TAKING AN EXCESS OF SALT LATELY (LOW BLOOD PRESSURE) BUT I STARTED HAVING VERTIGOS AND IT HAPPENS WHEN I MOVE MY HEAD. LOWERING THE SALT IN MY FOOD MAY BE MY SOLUTION.
@@lulazeta8965 yes lower your salt but check with your doctor. Salt is not good for us
I have menineers for 30 odd years there is now help if the sickness come on . Stess can bring it on . If I move my head like you saying it would bring the sickness on
My Mother suffered from vertigo. She also had high blood pressure, glaucoma, hair loss, & calcified arteries requiring CABG & carotid endarterectecomy. She was not a diabetic. She was a little lady who ate like a bird--avoided meat/eggs, but loved bread. She passed in 2017. I am a Masters level dietitian who was not taught about hyperinsulinemia/insulin resistance, which i believe was the cause of all her issues. I learned that from watching your videos.
I’ve had a bad case of Vertigo that lasted for about 2 years. I’ve done the Epley maneuver to no end. It got to a point where it was causing me more dizziness. I managed to see a Neurologist and had my hearing, vision, and balance tested. I found out my Vertigo was being caused by Vestibular Migraines. Vertigo is one of the many side effects of Vestibular Migraines. When I was experiencing Vertigo I was also having severe headaches, migraines, neck pain, and sinus pressure. I’m on medication which helps but still experience Vertigo from time to time, not nearly as bad as it was before. I had one episode where I nearly blacked out while I was driving. Yes, I was driving while having Vertigo. I have live my life and go to work. I’m single and I must drive to work. My normal doctor wasn’t helping me so… I drove. My appointment with my Neurologist saved me. She listened to me and my symptoms.
How did the Neurologist help you?
Hey can you share about how you came out of it
How were you helped
I have vertigo due to vestibular migraine. Curious to know more about your case. I have started keeping my triggers at bay. Like caffeine, chocolate.. fermented food .. all this is in my control. But noise and crowds are also a trigger for me which i have no control over.😢
Please explain how Neurologist helps with vertigo so I could also make an appointment to see one.ENT doctors have no solutions
I had this happen to me several years ago. I told my doctor that it feels like you're on a boat in the ocean during a hurricane. She said it's the most benign condition someone can have that makes you feel like you are dying. She is right. She got me to do the lying back while turning my head and watched my eyes. It was on the right side and the right eye is the eye that showed the reaction. It was horrible. I couldn't close my eyes or be in a dark room and turn over in the bed without feeling like I was in a violently rolling boat. I did the maneuver and helped some, but it took me months to get over it completely. I still sometimes have some dizziness, but it's a piece of cake compared to the BPPV. I take your Vitamin D3/K2 supplement, but I will up the amount for now.
Try B1 also it helped me a lot.
High dose thiamine plus vitamin D/k2 worked a miracle for me!
BPPV is horrid.
draw the mark of an X on a piece of paper,cellotape it to a door at eye level..........Then take step back and fixing your eyes on the X,then very quickley turn your head right and left 20times,keeping your eyes fixed on the X at all times....This eye exercise relieves the symptoms for me, and maybe for others that get vertigo.What triggers vertigo for me is when I am moving from one place to another in quick succession.
That's exactly how I feel sometimes. I can be walking and it feels like my foot is going to go through the floor. Other times, I feel like I'm on a boat in unstable waters. Other times I feel like my blood has drained completely to my feet or somewhere. In addition, both my ears feel itchy. Not sure if that too is part of the symptom. My doctor said it's vertigo and of course she mentioned medication. I'm not doing that. I just want to not have those episodes I described above. In addition, both my ears feel itchy. Not sure if that too is part of the symptom.
Note that the Dix-Hallpike test and the Epley maneuver are for diagnosing and treating BPPV in the posterior canal. There are two more canals in each inner ear that can be affected by BPPV, and there are corresponding test/maneuvers for those two, as well.
Which are?!
@@TheJML1975 Being a non-expert and not wanting to provide potentially incomplete or even incorrect info I refer you to, for example, a UA-cam channel by Michael Teixido MD, who specializes in vestibular disorders among other things. His channel is very helpful. But the other two canals are the horizontal canal and the anterior canal. I have experience in that I did have both posterior and horizontal canal BPPV, and I did Epley (for the posterior one) and 360-Lempert (for the horizontal one) plenty of times.
@@hmmob3956 hey thanks, for the recommendation. 👍🏻
A physical therapist can also diagnose and treat BPPV.
You should consult an ENT and vestibular therapist for the diagnosis and treatment🙏🏼
Very happy I found this video. I was having dizzy bouts throughout the day for a couple of weeks, and went to see 3 different doctors. I even went for an MRI as suggested by one of the doctors. After seeing this video, I got myself checked and found that my vitamin D level was very low. With a daily routine of sunlight and supplements, I'feel much better now
I had this experience. It's very debilitating... a philippino doctor did this manoeuvre to me while in ED. I now can do this by myself if it happens again. Thanks Dr. Berg for diffusing this information to the world. ❤
I had BPPV and did the video you showed and got the eye fluttering so I knew that was it. I had mentioned my dizziness to my chiro and he was the one who told me to do the Epley Maneuver. Having my husband behind my head to help with the angle and count the time using a timer on the phone for each position was very helpful. I normally have some dizziness due to my iron deficiency, but when the room spinning became a regular occurrence I knew something else was going on!
Dr. Berg, could you please consider redoing this video. The spinning parts triggered my vertigo tremendously and I am still suffering after three days.
I'm glad you mentioned K2! A couple years ago I was starting to have vertigo upon lifting my head off the pillow in the morning. This was happening for several days in a row. I then learned that certain foods could exacerbate the problem (like coffee or chocolate) and in my case I thought it might have been dark chocolate (because I didn't drink coffee) so I stopped it completely.
Having heard that calcium crystals could be the cause, and knowing that K2 helps drive calcium out of soft tissue and into the bones, I immediately upped my intake of K2 by adding an extra 100 mcg. Since I was already taking 5K to 10K of D3 I didn't bother increasing my D3 intake. In any case the problem immediately went away, never to return. And to top it off I can still eat a couple squares of 85% dark chocolate every day with no issues but I have continued to take the extra vitamin K2 along with the vitamin D3.
I'm grateful to hear of your success to restored health. 💜
Please also note that Magnesium also drives calcium out of soft tissue & into the bone. It's indeed one it's many functions that occur daily (over 300+ enzymatic functions daily). Transdermal Mg is best to avoid unhealthy levels. Unfortunately, tests are inadequate at the moment, since 50% of Mg is in the bone & 47% to 49% is in the soft tissue, and approximately only 1% is in the blood.
Best of Heath to You💜
@@Nabiyah1 so u r saying magnesium must be taken with this too?
@@Nabiyah1 Thanks for the tip, I've been supplementing with magnesium for many years. I prefer magnesium bisglycinate. I've even heard that having low magnesium levels will also reduce vitamin D uptake and a large swath of the population is deficient in magnesium so supplementation is often critical for good health.
@@TomRommelmann You're welcome & agreed @ your thoughts. In case you're unfamiliar, the Magnesium RBC test is a better test for gauging magnesium levels than the serum magnesium test (standard).
Wow!! I just recently started taking K2 & D3 as well!! And noticed my vertigo started disappearing! I love dark chocolate too. Lol but I will do these exercises too! My Mom had same issues with crystals and inner ears. Interesting. She's better now . Thank for video. ! I indeed had a lack of Vit D ..bc I had stopped taking it. But I do think this is genetic issue!
Thank you Dr. Berg, I had recently started following you because of all the great insight you provide. I have suffered for years with random bouts of vertigo, so I was thrilled when this video came up in my feed. Sure enough I was recently tested by by my doctor and found to be deficient in Vitamin D. I’m taking your advice and praying it works !
I am 60 years old and vertigo is my only health problem. It affects every aspect of my life. I was a runner for over 30 years. I haven't been able to run or lift in about 3 years. Just going for a walk can be challenging at times.
I'm excited to find this video as the Epley maneuver has been the only suggested treatment and it isn't an option for me. I will post my experience here in a month or so.
@user-eg4sq8dn1hI am finding my recovery is much quicker after just a month of following this procedure. I am very hopeful that it will be resolved but I have experienced vertigo for years so I didn't expect a quick fix.
I highly suggest you look into the epley maneuver if you haven't already. I know many people that say it eliminated the vertigo permanently
@user-eg4sq8dn1h I am 33 and had it also since new year. whew what a start of the year 😅 I hate taking betahistine because it gives me abdominal cramps and a slight diarrhea
Dr Berg, you just changed my life! 3 years ago I had a sudden massive first attack that landed me in the emergency room. The did the Epily Manoeuvre on me at the hospital and gave me instructions to repeat it, but on the bed. When I tried it I got so sick that I couldn't continue. BUT your technique on the floor with a pillow was not so severe as the edge of the bed, and your method CURED me. After 3 years of suffering, every time I rolled over in bed or doing yoga, I would be so dizzy, day in, day out. But you cured me. I am eternally grateful.
Wow! Glad you’re feeling so much better. An ENT and vestibular therapist are helpful too🙏🏼
Damn, I had this condition a month ago, that was the worst week of my life. Thank you for this video. To all the viewers believe me this information is gold.
I had an episode about 2 months ago. It lasted about 8 hours and it was miserable. The only way I could not have the spinning effect was to try and stare at something straight ahead. Lying down and closing my eyes made things worse. I had 6 bouts of vomitting. It was the worst.
and brother i need it. stinking vertigo has got ahold of me. It is such and unpleasant way to live. still haven't got mine under control I needed to hear this. My drs are of no help. thank u Dr. Berg. wish u were my dr.

@@goddesstc Mine lasted over a week although it got weaker each day. But the first day I was throwin up 20 times until I was completely drained and the only thing I was able to do was crawl on all fourth to get water and sleep on the right side because on the left I felt like I was ridin roller coasters 24/7
The video explaining exactly what happens to the calcium crystal was awesome! Thank you. It really helps me to understand exactly what is going on in the body.
My experience at 60yrs....got vertigo for first time and went to hospital did not know anything about this vertigo.... So they explained so with time I learned how to handle.... Every 2 to 3 months I would spin so bad and not go to work... Did all exercises... Nothing helped... Hated this spinning vomiting.... Lasted 15 yrs..... My fried in Australia said her husband had it bad like me.... He Went to a gathering clinic where they spoke about virtigo and Dr. Said number 1healer for vertigo is Eletro lite.... Get at chemist or make your own athletes have it every day.. sip it slowly don't gulp down.... It's been 6months I promise never had it again not even a spin..... God bless..... Every day...
U are right I think. I drank a lot of pedialyte the other day and my symptoms began to get better

What's pedyalite? @@colsonhunter6036
Thank you, I am going to try this.
This makes perfect sense and unravels a mystery for me. I've had this occasionally for years and never knew why. It is debilitating and lingers, the most awful feeling in the world. Small episodes have happened while I was at the dentist, really horrible. In the past year it's been much better, but I didn't know why. Through optional wellness blood testing I found out that I was nearly deficient in vitamin D so I've been taking it for the past 10 months. In the last couple of months I've noticed the positional vertigo has not been an issue and I can even sleep on my right side which I've not been able to do in years. These dots have never been connected for me until this video. Now I'll add the K2 as well. A huge thank you!
good to hear you recover, can you please recommend for the daily taking volume as I have suffered the same kind of vertigo for the last few weeks. Appreciate your advice
@@darknesslight3593 I started out taking 5,000 IU of D3 and 1 dropper (about 500 mcg.) of K-2 (MK7) per day.
Now I am somewhat random about it, and sometimes up the D3 to 10,000. These changes because I'm not in the sun much, my D level is still on the low side, and being a bit random about taking it as opposed to a consistent daily dose, might be more effective according to some. Well, so far, so good. Hope you find relief.
As soon as this video popped up I immediately knew you were going to mention K2 because I have watched all your other videos and now I understand the roll of vit D3 and K2.Thank you very much, my wife had loose crystals and suffered badly before regularly taking these vitamins - now you have confirmed why she no longer suffers frequent dizzy spells. Thanks again Eric! 🤗
What is K2?
@@im_saved_by_grace did you watch the video?
@@lagunafishing yes
How much vitamin D and K2 does she take? My mom has Vertigo for 5 years and I wonder if K2 will finally help her.
You are amazing! It is so nice to see your face when I search for an issue I'm having and you have a video on it! I have been watching your videos for years and you are worth your weight in gold!!
THANK YOU FROM MY HEART SR.
I have suffered with vertigo many years. Instead of getting less episodes as i got older. I just got more.
I suffered with vertigo for years while also taking high amounts of vit D and K2. While I agree with Dr. Berg that it could be caused by low D mine was caused by histamine intolerance. Once I cut out coffee and high histamine foods I stopped suffering from vertigo and migraines. I take quercetin and DAO before eating (and digestive enzymes!) as well as NAC which greatly helps my nasal congestion I get from outside allergies and histamine foods. You can’t cut out all histamine you just want to keep your histamine bucket from overflowing. So if low D doesn’t seem to be your issue look into histamine intolerance-it’s a daunting diet but many people only have to do it for a few weeks to get the excess histamine out of their system or if your like me you might have to stay away from high histamine foods for longer. It’s worth it to feel better!
This is really helpful to me!!❤ thanks!!
What is DAO and NAC?
What is NAC??
This makes a lot of sense for me personally. I had this version of vertigo in the winter of 2019-2020 and was so freaked out because it was happening to me all of a sudden at the age of 47. Because of the cold I was indoor all the time. These days I take the 10,000 IU with K2 pills daily. I feel great! Thank you doc!
Could you please link me to the supplement? Mine’s been retired, so looking for a replacement.. thanks
My mom is suffering from this and through your comment I guess she also has vitamin D deficient because she barely goes outside (since she stops working).
many got it after bill gates vaccination program ......
I'm currently having vertigo since almost a years ago after I was being diagnosed a high blood pressure and cholesterol. I'm also on medication for both by the doctor. Thanks for the information, it is really helpful for me to get rid of the vertigo.
My mom used to get them really bad. For like 20 + years. She knew it wasn’t caffeine cause she didn’t drink coffee. She also didn’t drink sodas. She also used to get the worse migraines. She decided to stop eating dairy and later meat. She hasn’t had any vertigo or migraines ever since.
This condition is soo scary. I had an episode while I was driving about two weeks ago 😬😳 Per usual, I missed work and felt like I couldn't do anything. Thank God for your useful videos Dr. Berg!!! 👏🏾
Terrifying ,I've had this too while driving ,
So did u overcome it and how?
I haven't driven for 3-4 months because I'm afraid of having it hit while I'm behind the wheel. The vertigo seems to come out of nowhere. I spoke to my doc about it twice but his response was basically that vertigo isn't unusual and I shouldn't worry about it. I spent a little time looking online, and this is the first I'm hearing about the epely method/procedure. Anyone know if this should be done in between episodes of vertigo or while actually experiencing the vertigo? I'm worried about moving a crystal back into a position that triggers the vertigo.
@@B_Bodziak One more caveat: if you do have BPPV but the crystal deposit is in an unusual location, then doing the most common Epley maneuver could indeed cause a worsening of symptoms, as you mentioned. The maneuver as demonstrated in Dr. Berg's video is the most common version, to treat the most common crystal location. There are 4 different versions of the maneuver that can treat when the crystal is in different locations of the inner ear tubes. There are many UA-cam videos of varying quality discussing BPPV and how to cure it, and some go into the different versions of the maneuver. But as I mentioned in my previous comment, BPPV specifically happens when moving the head; it is positional vertigo. So if your vertigo happens when you are holding your head still, it suggests you do not have BPPV, and the Epley maneuver will not be useful.
You talk about freaking out,, Almost three years ago I was driving on the interstate suddenly two semi trucks along the side of me and out of the blue I lost my ability to think rational. I literally screamed JESUS !!!! Oh my God !!!! I'm going to crash !!!!!
I literally lost all sense of coordination and helpless caused unbelievable panic sandwiched between two semi trucks !!!
By the grace of God , still screaming JESUS...
YES !! Im not ashamed to admit it,
believe me, when you truly feel your life is at stake you better believe it... ( you will call on the name of Jesus )
I slowed down and made it to the shoulder of the highway so my passenger could take over.
I still refuse to temp driving again on the interstate.
I used to have terrible vertigo, it would last sometimes for 8 hours! I tried everything to cure it ,and nothing seemed to work until I tried Claritin. Since I first tried it about 2 years ago I have not had an episode of Vertigo. I take it every morning and it lasts all day. I think it must dry out your inner ear. I am really glad I found out this works and I do not have to suffer any longer!! Claritin is a life saver!!!
Do you mean the antihistamines? X
YES
😮
I’m suffering from vertigo and I take Sudafed daily and that helps me be able to work .. I’m gonna be doing vitamin K and more vitamin D3 right now, but I definitely understand how an antihistamine can help thank you for sharing
About two years ago I was diagnosed with BPPV, after I started experiencing dizziness and spinning. Doctor told me that I would have to live with it and gave me a hand-out with some exercises. He did not tell me anything about calcium crystals. I started my own research and realised that I was deficient in K2. I had been taking K2 prior to this, however during covid and isolation, had tapered off and hadn't taken any for months. I had also stopped taking as much D3, as I knew these work together. So I started taking them again properly and within a week the dizzy, spinning sensations stopped completely.
I had positional vertigo awhile back. I was laying in bed and just turned my head to one side, and the whole room started spinning around violently. It can make one motion sick. Then when I tried to stand up, I would feel my head spinning and I couldn't stay upright. When that finally stopped, I found that when I walked, I was being pulled to one side. It finally vanished, and I've been okay since. But, boy, is that CREEPY! I was diagnosed as Vitamin D3 deficient around that time. Took supplements, and haven't had a problem since.
I had the same thing happen to me. I was fine and went to bed. I woke up to go the the bathroom and the room was spinning. I also had to go number 2.. I felt like I had a touch of a bug going on. It scared me. I did this exercise and seems to be okay but my appetite hasn't returned. I'm going g to increase my vitamin d for sure
Please can you tell me that how long did it take you to get rid of this ?
@jrnfw4060 are you still having issues I had similar issues I don't always have it when I lay down sometimes I get vertigo. How do you know if your vitamin d deficiency
@@Ozzzz_3 It just came and went. I'd have it for a few days, then it would go away. No specific time limit on my vertigo.
@@UGotHookah I learned about my Vitamin D deficiency when I had a complete physical done at the clinic I use. They test for that.
Currently, I'm not having the severe spinning vertigo, though occasionally I'm a little shaky on my feet and just have to be careful. It comes and goes.
I've had this thing twice in my life. The last time was last year. The only cure for this seemed to be doing certain movements like you showed in this video. Both of those incidents lasted about 10 days total before it was totally gone. Every time I'd move my head even a little bit my eyes would do exactly that and the whole room was spinning fast multiple times a second. So I was throwing up a lot and only a specific exercise helped to get rid of it.
I don't understand how people here in the comments say that they or someone they knew had this for years. It's must've been mild for them because in this condition you literally can't even walk without hitting walls and throwing up right after because where ever you look everything spins so fast just by moving your head even a little bit
@LemonBar Yeah. I sat down and tried to sleep like that too the first time i had it because i was too afraid to move my head in any direction lol. But after going to the doctor and getting a prescription for nausea the days went easier, even though everything was spinning still I didn't feel the overwhelming urge to vomit.
It can be triggered by side sleeping, and sometimes only one side is the culprit.
I had exactly the same as you in 1989. The worst experience of my life. I would rather have back spasms where I’m partially disabled than have to deal with that again. The room was spinning, and I was violently ill. I couldn’t move my head without throwing up. I got some kind of drugs from an ER and by the fourth day could manage to go out. It took two weeks to completely heal. I never knew what it was. Awful. I’m glad there’s more discussion of this now.
(Good thing I was still pretty young because I don’t think I could deal with it today.)
Yes, I couldn't walk, drive or do anything but lie or sit and make sure I didn't close my eyes unless I was sitting. Even blinking made me feel horrible. The most sickening sensation I've ever experienced.
I've been there and it was so crazy for me that I had to stop working for about 2 weeks for several years. It was about how I want to stop the suffered and stop from drugs that keep me doing all the healthy life style. And thank God for all those 15 years suffered from vertigo...I am all good now
It took me weeks to get over the vertigo. I woke up with it. Was in bed for 3 days. Saw my dr 2 days running. I was a mess. Took sea legs, my dad used to take it, he had a lifetime of ear problems. That worked until I could see the physio who showed me, the manover, you explained here. I have that wonderful affliction, insomnia. I take D3 k2 , go out like a light , that with magnesium. As I have chronic pain in my leg. Having tried every painkiller and sleeping med that is available on prescription. Vitamin supplements work! Funny that. I love your videos, they have such truth and explanations that are hard to find. Thankyou for this, I was sure it was a vitamin deficiency...😂
I've been doing this consistently for two months. It in itself didn't eliminate the problem for me. It did make recovery quicker when I had an episode. But I was still getting vertigo as often as I always had. For the last 16 days I have completely changed my diet and that seems to be eliminating the vertigo 🤞.
Love your channel Dr Berg. I have learned A LOT from you.
EDIT: March 14th was the last time I had coffee (Today is April 6th). That along with a strict no sugar, no highly processed foods, very little gluten diet and quite a few extra supplements I am finally feeling well enough to get back in the gym (lifting really triggered the vertigo ). For me, Vit D3 and Vit K2 on their own had very little impact on the frequency of vertigo I was experiencing even after taking it consistently for months.
I had vertigo for over 2 weeks and the exercise made it worse. After seeing this video I took vitamin D, 2 days later the vertigo disappeared. Thank you for this video.
I wish all doctors were as good as you. You are so kind and generous with your information. God bless you. ❤
This so interesting! I have suffered with vertigo for a number of years. Recently I had blood work done. I was low in vitamin D. I started taking vitamin D with K2. I have had some symptoms, but nothing like before. Thank you for such great information!
Your videos are truly amazing! I learn so much from you about my health. Your “alternative” cures should be first line approaches by MDs before pills are prescribed. We’ve created such a “fix it with a pill” society when the power of healing is often within us. You are truly a blessing!
I had horrid vertigo almost 1 month (my bppv comes and goes every 6 to 12 months). Took 50,000 D3 plus some K2 for 2 days. On the third day, my vertigo is completely gone. Doctor Berg is a miracle worker and has done what every ent failed to do.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Did you take 50,000 D3 daily ? TIA
God Bless Dr Berg.
Fr.
Same here 🌸 Dr Berg is one of a kind ❤ don't know any person in our modern times who helped humanity so much with his advices and care.
protect himmmm❤
I realized years ago that my vertigo occurred in winter & spring-not in the summer when I was outside in the sun. That’s when I started supplementing with higher doses of Vitamin D.
he is an incredible godsend to so many of us. What a legacy he has
Dr Berg is spot on with this video. I recently had vertigo and my doctor couldn’t figure out what it was because I did a blood test and everything was fine except Vitamin D was 3x lower than it should be. I have been taking 20k iu every other day and it has completely eliminated my vertigo.
Nice but doctor berg said 50.000 in one day do you think this is safe?
Thank you so much, it worked for me the first time I tried it, perhaps my situation wasn't too severe, i didn't feel sick either. God Bless you for all the work you do in helping people.😊❤
I experienced vertigo for the first time about 6 weeks ago. Head spinning, dizziness, etc. Went to the ER. Blood tests, cat scan, everything was normal. The ER doctor said it was vertigo. He told me to go to an ear, nose and throat specialist. I called and could not get an appointment for 3 weeks. So I suffered with it for about a month. The ENT doctor said I had positional vertigo. After doing 3 or 4 exercises, the problem was totally gone. He said it was undoubtedly caused by a crystal. I never want to go thru that again.
The vertigo happens to me when I look directly overhead for any length of time. I had the wobbly eyes one time, and that was when I was draining my legs of fluid (I was prone where my hips on up were laying on the bed and my legs were resting upward on the bed) and when I went to lower my legs, my eyes wobbled alternately. Scared me big time. I have been doing the Epley for a while and that helps a lot. Grateful for the information about vit-d deficiency. I take 5K i.u. 1 x /day and no K2. Time to bump that up. I always wondered why I would see D3 & K2 in the same supplement. Perhaps this is why. I also get outside every day for an hour with direct sunlight. I have had tinnitus for more than 10 years, and am hyper-sensitive to EMF radiation (I can always tell). Time to up what I have been doing and get more aggressive. Thank you!!! ❤
Me too
@LemonBar Just keep your legs shoulder width apart (like if you were on a boat) for some balance.
If you have fluid on your legs you should definitely watch Dr. Bergs videos on Thiamine (B1) and Magnesium.
@@codywonkenobi9170 Thank you! Fortunately, I have not had another similar situation. I have been using an infrared sauna blanket for almost 2 months now and it is amazing. So many benefits to this, and I am truly grateful that I bought it.
The 😅😅😊
I’ve done the Epley maneuver for my mother many times. She’s almost 90. It works. She has suffered from vertigo for years. Doctors didn’t help. Just prescribed medication which didn’t help.
Woke up yesterday and was literally spun out (per se)to understand what was happening everything was spinning. Also the nausea feeling was unpleasant. Thank God for Dr Berg🙏🏻
I have photosensitivity, so this is probably what started my vertigo. I was in my early 20s when vertigo started. A couple years back I started taking 5,000 iu of D3, but I still get it. I’m going to have to try the 50, 000 w the K2. Thanks so much for this information!
You need stronger vit d
Do you have thyroid disease? Because thyroid autoimmune problems may cause sun light eruption on the skin plus the vertigo.
I did all this when I had vertigo. I saw another video and someone mentioned being Vitamin B12 deficient, an hour after taking 3 vitamin b12 pills all the vertigo feeling went away.
Try taking vitamin b12, this may be your cause of vertigo.
All the best!
Thanks Dr Berg, great video, but I would also like to highlight another factor that could be causing BPPV symptoms, which is hyperinsulinemia. I am sure in my case that low vitamin D was also a factor, but after suffering with extreme BPPV for many years, having the procedures carried out that you mentioned didn't seem to be helping, I decided to strip back my diet, because I was convinced it was something I was eating that was causing the BPPV. What I found was that these episodes happened after eating high GI complex carbohydrates. The episodes were scary and sometimes would last for hours, but there was no pattern to them, or so I thought. On a few occasions, the symptoms lasted for many days. Once I removed the carbs from my diet, the problem went away. I can also now bring this on again by simply eating pasta or rice, and I can also tell the difference between hyperinsulinemia., hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, because each one has a different type of dizziness which comes on in a set pattern following moderate to high consumption of the carbs over a period of time. In addition to the dizziness, other symptoms included heart palpitations, disturbed vision and sweating of the palms. I hope this helps other sufferers of this or any similar condition.
Hey I feel like I have the same issues the hypoglycemia and vertigo and sweety palms are the worst is there anything specific that helped you?
@@mariaali7404 Yes, I stopped eating carbs. I am pretty much carnivore now.
@@LucidAmethyst how much time did it take you heal from hypoglycemia. And for how long did you took vitamin D.
@@mariaali7404 It's hard to say, because I was eliminating foods gradually over time. I wouldn't recommend just stopping all carbs, I would decrease gradually. In theory you could be healed in a matter of days or weeks, but the withdrawal could give you some bad side effects. I started taking vitamin D for different reasons, it wasn't because of my vertigo symptoms, but I have been taking it for about 3 years now.
@@LucidAmethyst thank you so much for all this kind i formation. I wish you good health. I pray that I also heal with time.
Fascinating thank you! When i experienced this it was so scary and confusing and tho i figured out it was those little crystals, i had no idea Vitamin deficiency was responsible!!!
My husband and I started taking Vit K2 along with vitamin D3, and we both broke out in this type of rash that itched and produced tiny red spots. We quit the K2 and my husband started taking K2 MK-7 with his vitamin D3. No more rash, when we quit the K2. However, I am the one who feels dizzy, with sinus problems, plugged ears, etc. My lab work shows that my vitamin D3 level is around 4-5 points higher than normal. This equilibrium problem is really causing hardship in my daily life, because it’s like I’m in a daze and can barely think sometimes. I slept with a CPAP machine since 1991-1992, until a few months ago. My sinus headaches and perpetual sneezing, plus the pain in my right sinus cavity made it impossible to keep using it. I have always used a water humidifier with it, and keep my equipment clean. My sneezing has all but stopped, and my headaches kind of went away, unless it’s caused by my allergies. I also have optical migraines that started after my first cataract surgery. They were terrifying, when the first started, but now, when I get one about every other week, they only last about 10 minutes. No pain. I just see jagged patterns and it interferes with my vision. I have had a CT on my sinus’, I’ve tried decongestants and antihistamines. I’ve been told I have fluid in my inner ear. No one seems to know what the problem is and I am so frustrated and sad.
How are your b12 levels?
You provide so many keepers Dr. Berg! Thank you for all the research you are so good at❤
Thank you Dr. Berg for this information, however - I personally, experience Vertigo as an allergic reaction to "food" that I am allergic to. Particularly DAIRY food products. I haven't been able to drink milk for years, due to Virtigo allergic reaction 😢 I just wish more doctors would become aware of the connection of Virtigo as a reaction to certain foods.
The only time I had vertigo is when I had a terrible ear infection, the minute I would sit up on the couch I'd vomit from the spinning room motion. That will help someone with their fasting for sure. ugg
No problem. Hope the information here will help you. Stay safe.
@@cinystarr4657 So how did you get rid of this ? Fortunately for me I don't get nausea with this. I also don't drink any kind of milk except nut milk. I had a sinus cold so maybe I should flush my ears.
@@cinystarr4657 I had a period of time where I got vertigo Really bad. It ended up being from under stress. It had affected my immunity so badly and possibly it depleted needed vitamins. But for a few days I was so sick. I couldn't get off the couch from all the spinning.
Mine seems to be to coffee and other stimulants. Glad you found what causes it.
I may try cutting dairy again and see if it helps.
Thank you for keeping such quality information Available to us
Oh how life works… I’m currently suffering a bout of this BPPV atm, 2 days now. Then this video pops up in my feed. I’ll head to the chemist today for some Vit D3 and 🤞it has the K2 in it too.
You’re a healer, Dr Eric Berg. Thank you. 🌹
No problem. Happy to share this info.
