I cured myself of anxiety attacks..I grew up on a crappy diet because my mom cannot cook. So I was fed fast food and frozen processed crap all my life. My anxiety was terrible. As I got into adulthood and enrolled in culinary arts college I started learning more about nutrition and I decided to change my diet. I started eating more cruciforous veggies, leafy greens , vitamin B12 etc.. Boom! My anxiety got better and ironically so did my migraine headaches.I cut out processed foods and I buy a lot of organic when I can. I still have these issues but they are not controlling my life like they used to.
Thank you. That makes sense!
Glad that’s working out for you. You should also look into mindfulness !

Awesome! So helpful I’ll watch my diet more!
You do an amazing job in educating the public on natural healthcare as opposed to most doctors that deal in sick care.
poshhippie My so called Dr Is nothing more than a PILL PUSHER!!! I think I have been put on some trouble maker list...
the last time I went the nurse kept bugging me to get some kind of shot! I telling her NO...
Bit she continued.
very creepy.
That's because most doctors are taught to treat the symptoms, not the "root cause of illnesses and diseases" hence, pushing prescription drugs which btw, keeps doctors, pharmacies, hospitals and BIG PHARMA rolling in💰💰💰💰!! And 9 times out of 10, when one pill doesn't work you normally see patients being prescribed another pill, that pill doesn't work, another pill and so on and so on, get it? That's why I ALWAYS tell people "if you have a doctor who "doesn't prescribe diet changes and exercise" as the first lines of defense before prescribing any type of prescription DRUGS, run as fast as you can!! I am fortunate to have a doctor who prescribes diet changes and exercise because even he knows, I DESPISE prescription drugs and will not do them if at all possible!! I would rather change my diet over and over, do herbs/spices and natural remedies until I find what works for me. Doctors LOVE when people don't know or become knowledgeable in their own health history and that's why I appreciate Dr. Berg for all he does in helping the public become more aware and informed in their overall health!! Knowledge IS POWER people, stay safe and well everyone!💖🤗🙏🏼🙏🏼

Nothing "natural" about supplements.
Like I'm always saying, big pharma doesn't make trillions of dollars off of healthy people...
Fun fact! Pharmacy, pharmaceutical, etc is derived from the Koine Greek word pharmakeia, which means sorcery.
The best video I have seen on heavy bleeding and vitamin D deficiency. Soon as I started taking my vitamin D supplement. My next cycle was normal. Thank you
It’s so confusing and difficult to stay alive...wish you were my Doctor 🙏🏻
Too true! •¿•

No. Not at all Allah (God in Arabic) keeps you alive
Not really. All the information is at your fingertips. You just have to put forth the the effort and have some personal responsibility.
@@lisag18 the aim is to save our souls. The physical life is very short and then what. Noone ever speaks about that. Jesus love you❤
I Take Moringa.
It's a perfect balance of all what you said.
Thanks to you, now I know the value of Moringa.
Trueeee. But dry moringa is much better.
Wow this is an excellent doctor. He cares enough to explain everything in detail . Thank you for this very good video .
I'll never stop watching your videos!! I've learned way more from you Dr. Berg than I ever learned from my own doctor - you rock!!
Thank you dr. Berg! Very informative without plugging products, sharing your knowledge with everyone who wants to know.
I have ordered supplements from you, recently. I am 75 and never knew about mag with calcium. NEVER knew about so many of these amazing needs. I!! Thank you so very much. I am feeling better than I have in long time!!!
I have not seen a video like this ever. Thanks a ton
Dr Berg I just wanna say thank you for all the thousands of highly helpful tips in your nice and short videos. I watch them often, and deeply appreciate it!
In summary
1. We need just the right amount of calcium
2. Take Calcium and Magnesium together in a 1:1 ratio
3. Take Vitamin D3 this 10X your absorption of C & M
4. Dont forget K2 found in animal fars this helps to transport the calcium from tissue to bones
Can you cite a source for the 10x absorption of magnesium? Cant find it
@@KingOfKingz911 Vitamin D3, in other words, the sun or Vitamin D Supplements
When to take calcium and magnesium
@@sandywahid7120calcium in the morning and mag at night. Taking at the same time will cancel each other out.
Dr Berg says it...@@KingOfKingz911
YOU ARE THE BEST DR I'VE EVER SEEN
Doctor Eric Berg appreciate you been on FB you're such a blessing for all.
💞
Vitamin A Retinol (not from Beta carotene) is also essential and works synergistically with Vit D3; K2 - particularly MK7 and Magnesium. Kate Rheaume-Bleaue. She has recently written a book called The Vitamin K2 and Calcium Paradox, which goes in to great detail about how essential Vitamin A (Retinol) is. Essential read/research for those taking the above.
Great information Dr Berg. I am 2 months into Keto and following your videos for coaching. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.
Many of the problems with growing plants come from excesses of certain nutrients rather than deficiencies. Excess can be worse for plants. Thanks for yet another excellent video Dr Berg!
Sure wish I had your videos when I was much younger. You would have saved me so much suffering.
Great information Dr....but sometimes I get information overload from your videos. I am a former nurse and still I have trouble wrapping my mind around all the facts and what is the best for optimum health.
Thanks Dr. Berg. Your lessons are big to humanity. God bless you always !
thank you so much for your passion to learn and share, many people appreciate you and say nothing, I'll say you are a HUGE inspiration for many individuals
💞
Thank you doctor i' ve learned SO much from you.
Great job....I listen to you all the time now....
THANK YOU SO MUCH DR.Berg 👍
You're most welcome!
I was 57, normal weight and body shape, but still feeling very elderly! I stumbled upon your videos and I'm hooked I feel cheated that the advice I have followed about eating low fat and at least 3 meals a day, has been so unhelpful. However, it's very hard to be sociable in today's society because the foods people socially eat are definitely high in carbs. Your message has not reached UK Cornwall yet!! I plan to buy my friends some Apple Cider Vinegar for Christmas 😀x
[....FYI: One can find and buy Dr. Berg's books, on Amazon(Kindle), etc. and have them to read, study, & share!...]
Annette Stephens I love Dr Berg video too and personally very passionate about health & nutrition myself so been listening and doing a lot of reading.. I’m most happy to share more with you what I have been reading in addition to the video if you like to explore more fir yourself especially to what’s available in UK ( drop me a note at my Facebook - Aries Yeo)
Informative and most helpful. There is so much that one has learn and understand. Thank you for the upload.
I refer you to my above posts.
Thanks for a informative post, here are a few more tips on how to cure heartburn...
1) You must loosen clothing: Heartburn happens because the contents of your stomach are going back up into your oesophagus, where the stomach acids burn the tissues. You could be having an episode of heartburn because tight clothing is binding your stomach. If that's the case, the first thing to do is loosen your belt - or your dress, or apron strings, or whatever else is holding you too tight.
2) You need to stand up: Your posture might be contributing to heartburn, so if you're sitting or lying down, try standing up. If you're already standing, try standing up more straight. "When you're slumped down, your internal organs are compressed," says Betsy Polatin. She's a movement specialist who works with performers. "A simple and effective solution may be to lengthen and widen your torso and spine, as your head gently moves toward the ceiling."
3) Elevate Waist: If you're lying down and can't get up, or if you're caring for someone who is confined to bed and is experiencing heartburn, try raising the upper body. According to the Mayo Clinic, lifting the head isn't enough, so don't add a pillow. The goal is elevation from the waist up. An adjustable bed that can be raised to a suitable angle can provide relief. If your bed doesn't do that, you can increase the angle by using a wedge pillow.
4) Mix Baking Soda With Water: You might have a heartburn remedy right in your kitchen. Baking soda will calm some heartburn. It works by neutralizing the stomach acid, this happens because baking soda is alkaline. Dissolve a teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water and drink slowly (drink everything slowly when you have heartburn).
5) You should chew gum: Chewing gum could help neutralize acid, too. Dr. Atif Iqbal, medical director of the Memorial Care Digestive Care Centre at Orange Coast Memorial Medical Centre in Fountain Valley, California, recommends it. "Gum increases saliva," says Dr. Iqbal. "Any acid that has built up in the gut is diluted and washed away or cleared out more quickly."
(I learned these and the reasons they work on Amirykal heartburn remedies site )
Dear Dr Berg! Thank you so much for your remarkable work and compassion. Thank you for the information given to people in a calm and disciplined manner. I finally understood a lot of things re how the body functions. With very best wishes Krystyna.
You really explain things well. Thanks so much.
Super video and I never knew the whole calcium thing, all we were ever told was we had to take it.
Very informative, thank you for your knowledge. Keep up the good work.
I enjoy your presentations so much.
Lots of information that is easy to understand.
When you talk about deficiencies such as magnesium or calcium could you please include how approximately how much to take and when to take it.
Thanks again
Thank you Dr. Berg, I find your videos extremely helpful with lots of information that has been helpful to me! ❤️😊
Dr Berg's videos are very interesting. Worth watching. Thank you Dr Berg.
Excellent advice and wise words ☝🏻
I've been watching your videos for approximately six months. I just want to say thank you for sharing valuable information!
Infinite love and blessings Dr. Berg! Your knowledge has personally helped me in so many ways. I go to you to learn all bio-chemical workings and you tell it in such a fascinating way. Thank you 🙏
Thank you,Dr. Berg, for saying that for osteoporosis one might need some calcium with that magnesium. My osteoporosis has worsened since I stopped completely
I am going back to taking some calcium supplements, but in the way that you say , because I trust doctors who know about nutrition. Thanks for all your videos👍
I love you man you are my hero .this channel of you help me and my Family a lot 👏👌👍
Wow. Well delivered. Thank you sir
Glad you liked the content!
I've read from various sources that calcium & magnesium shouldn't be taken at the same time (of day) but to wait a few hours in between each taking each because they are both positively charged (as is iron & various other minerals)& will complete for absorption & your body won't be able to absorb significant amounts of either.
Thanks! Dr.Berg for great information,you are great.
Thanks again ! I learned so much from you :)
Wonderful as always
@BARBIE from COLORADO
Thank you for watching!
Awesome! thanks for the great explanation on these hard to understand bodily needs and functions.
Great information thanks so much
Thank you SO much for your teaching ...A MAJOR BLESSING 💯💜
I wonder why so many people advise to not take them together then. 🤔
Thank you for all your awesome videos Eric!
Thanks Dr Berg! Between you and John Bergman my health is on the up and up! Total health, mind, body and soul!

Great video! Very helpful!
Thank you! Glad to know you liked it!
We would have to be you to remember all that you tell us. Good thing we have your videos. Thanks doc.
I used to re-listen Dr Berg's videos many times and improve my understanding of them most often.
This is so useful and informative, thank you very much
Glad it was helpful!
thank you for sharing all the info.,its been so helpful!
Really interesting thanks dr.Berg! 😊🙌
Thank you for the great info...Magnesium is so underrated...and the problem is modern farming methods deplete natural magnesium from the soil meaning it doesn’t make it that well into the vegetables. I also take a supplement
Hi dc thanks a lot for your great job
In Germany is used ratio 2:1 and 3: 1 in favour of magnesium. Too much Calcium creates many problems. In Poland is very popular Magnesium with Vit. B6 and that works amazingly well.
Thank you so much Dr
Thank you a mil! You give me more dietary education than I have ever gotten in my whole 47 yrs of life
We are the same age Richie
You are a brilliant doctor
THANK YOU DR BERG
Dry moringa leaves have these 2 minerals and also pottasium.
Good stuff as always Dr Berg
Thanks
Awesome info Dr.
Thank you.
Great video! Thanks for the info,dr.Berg.
Great video..
Thanks!
Thank you very much
Thankyou sir for your public motivation on health
Wow! Very informative and easy to understand. I'm from Wisconsin too so cheese is easy to find. Ratio or Ca to Mg (1:1) was something I needed clarity on.
Hi Dr. Berg How can I get Vitamin D2 & K2 together ..Or do I need to take it separately?
Thank you Dr Berg!! This video is super helpful to me right now. I have osteoporosis and my doctor wants me to take calcium but said nothing about magnesium or k2.
Thank you very much Dr Berg.
@Yeshwant Kamath
No worries. Thanks for watching!
Wonderful video
Apple cider vinegar question: what is happening in the gut/liver chemistry that is restored or reset after a period of use? Does the gall bladder dump bile stones and this is what happened? After alkalinity is reset is the liver response to fats restored and somehow stays there? Why don't I have to use the vinegar forever? What got reset and restored?
Thanks , great !
great video!
I'd recommend taking an electrolyte supplement, especially on keto.
Thank You Dr Berg! Increasing my Vitamin D3 to 6IU (on the advice of my chiropractor) fixed my heart arrhythmia and atrial fib. problems. It also explains why I used to get frequent nose bleeds, which thankfully, seem to have ceased : ) You have helped me understand the reasons WHY!
Taking isolated Calcium speeds up fluoride's calcification of certain glands and teeth.
Dr Berg I love you 🥰 I love to listen to you all the time your the best ever
Hi doctor berg it’s potassium pat here in London England,it’s the 28-10-2018, I eat 100 grams of ground hemp seed every day as part of my OMAD DIET,it contains 800 mg of magnesium,and 1200 mg of potassium,I get my calcium from vegetables,I wouldn’t touch dairy with a ten pole,as always doctor berg you’re the best.have a nice 👍 day as the Americans say.👍🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀😀😎😆😄😃😀😃😄😁😆🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
I get my vitamin d3 and k2 from Amazon.
Ive developed a lot of calcium issues from out water here in San Antonio. I haven't seen much benefit ( yet) from adding a Magnesium supplement but I think your tip on D and K2 will change that. Thanks Doc!
Did it change anything?
@@saintly_guy It didn't and potentially made it worse. Turns out that vitamin D also aids in calcium absorption. Getting an Ro systems and some daily chanca piedra tea seems to have some decent benefits. The team is primarily for kidney stones ( which isn't my issue ) but seem to clear out some of the excess calcium looking for a home in my body.
Good job!
It really helps thank you
Thanks Dr Berg! Love my magnesium. I noticed. Almost 10 years ago my lack and need! Just learned more about K2 and D3 recently. Now adding in the ph balance to acidic will be fun ! Good health to you all! ❤️🙏🏼🇨🇦
Very good and very educational video! I heard resently that people over 50 years old should not take calcium due to calcification. Can you please comment on this? I am 57. Would be very grateful!
Great stuff
You are awesome and I love your videos
Dr. Berg I truly appreciate you and your videos so very much.
I keep seeing so many people say that ( magnesium stearate included in magnesium is not good !!! )
I noticed that yours has the so called, ( filler, flow agent or whatever it technically is, ) please let me know what the truth is, thank you so very much.
My thoughts exactly!
I knew I had low stomach acid...I was taking ACV, but I was worried about my potassium level dropping. I have your electrolyte powder so I guess I will go back to my ACV to help increase my stomach acid
💞
Thanks Dr Berg
Thank you.
Love your videos! thank you for the knowledge Dr. Berg. What should we avoid when looking for Magnesium Citrate Supplement or any magnesium supplements for that matter?
OK, got it, Dr. Berg, now can you share what is the recommended dosage amount of calcium D3 and K2 and do you take them all together? And when is the ideal time of the day to take them thank you.
Dr. Berg I was wondering if you could do something on how to get rid of Tinnitus that would be so amazing. Thank you!
There is no cure for that. I m suffering from it as well but not every day, it comes and goes. I have it sometimes for months and then suddenly it disappears for a week or so. Try not to focus or think of it.
Thank you Dr,Berg for amazing information you are providing for free to all of us .This is admirable Question: I have very sever osteoporosis,I used Reclast injection on Aug.2017 I am taking 1000 Mg Calcuim +D3 and another 1000 mg D3 .(I had deficiency of D3 before)should i quit taking Calcuim medicine and using natural product? I started your Keto diet 2 weeks ago .
