Today we're going to do a deep dive on "healthy whole grains". Are they really healthy?
You'll often hear that whole grains have 2 to 3 times more fiber than refined grains. The problem is that grains don't have a lot of fiber to begin with.
Even brown rice only has about 4% fiber. However, 1 cup of spinach has 50% fiber and only 4 g of carbs. It's important to get your fiber from vegetables, not grains.
Many people don't realize that products with whole grains often come with refined grains, refined sugar, and different chemicals. When whole grains are ground into flour for these products, they also lose nutrition just from this process.
80% of the grain in a flour-based product made with whole grains is starch and will spike your blood sugars. When starch is heated, ground, or processed, your digestive enzymes turn the so-called healthy complex carbohydrates into simple carbohydrates (glucose molecules).
The big problems with whole grains:
1. They're high on the glycemic index
This will:
• Affect your blood sugar
• Affect your mood
• Affect your cognitive function
• Cause weight gain
• Potentially lead to a fatty liver
• Spike your cholesterol
2. They're high in phytic acid (an anti-nutrient)
This will:
• Block various minerals
3. They contain gluten
This will:
• Cause gas, bloating, and inflammation
• Potentially cause SIBO
• Potentially increase your risk of developing allergies or Hashimoto's
4. Wheat contains glyphosate
This will:
• Affect your microbiome
• Potentially increase your risk of celiac disease
5. They're fortified with synthetic vitamins and iron
This will:
• Cause them to sit for longer in your gut
• Expose you to types of vitamins that the body is not designed to absorb

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps make you more aware of what happens to your body when you consume whole grains.
Even though a mere " thanks " doesn't really show how grateful I am and how much you've helped this world . Still , Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Dr.berg .
He helps us but he gets paid well. Stop acting like he is doing this for free.
@@TomT-ds9vn No. But he still has to earn a living too. The info is free to anyone, unless you want to buy his food supplements. In this video you do not need to buy anything. In the case you need to buy you can buy from other companies making the same product.

Absolutely!
Thanks Dr Eric I really appreciate the info
My name is Carol and I am addicted to watching your videos. I am 67 and so many of my friends and relatives are baffled at how I have been looking younger and losing weight. I started at 178 and am now in a size 6. Thanks Dr Berg! Wish I had known this information 30 plus years ago! You are a rock star 🌟
It’s so true. The weight disappears, the appetite normalizes, the comfort level returns, the danger of becoming diabetic declines, and you realize that you spent YEARS of your life dealing with “diet” rather than living.
@@sw6118 yes, and it’s all so worth it. For me, it took me 2 months of consistency to maintain my low carb diet and now it’s second nature. It’s all about getting in the swing of it!
I'm offering berg rehab cheap!
Super 👍
@@sw6118 So true!
For three weeks I have not had any gluten: bread, rice, cereal, and pasta. Also low sugar….My rheumatoid arthritis pain is gone, as is depression, and I have so much energy and brain fog is gone!! Yes, inflammation is a problem. I cannot believe the complete change I have experienced. Thank you Dr. Berg for your information
I believe that the situation is as follows: People have been eating those and similar things for centuries without any issues, but so many things have changed over the past 100-300 years - things that changed the quality of our plants and foods and the way we prepare or consume foods, which aside from lifestyle changes etc., resulted in mankind developing unknown, new illnesses and allergies and whatnot.
Those are the collective consequences of our all's mistakes and ignorance.
My dad is a very sharp,slim and healthy 92 year old who still drives,uses a computer,goes up and down the stairs in his home many times a day and spends as much time puttering in his garden as he can. His diet has only ever been mediterranean based with lots of olive oil, and with every meal he will have a piece of bread,total three a day,whether it's white(his favorite) or multi grain. The only supplement he has been taking for years now is fish krill,omega 3. Am I going to convince him to change to no bread or pasta now lol? No. His sister died recently (from a fall) at 95.5yrs,same diet. But processed and fastfood was never part of their life or ours.
I think your dads doing pretty well at 92 regardless of what he is eating.
Some years ago, a nutritionist insisted that I needed whole grains in my diet, even when I tried to explain that I experienced a lot of issues with whole grains and actually did a lot better when I restricted their use in my diet. Even when I presented her with the research that existed regarding low carb and keto diets, she dismissed them saying they were fad diets. That was my last visit to her. I continued doing my own research on the internet and following a keto and intermittent fasting lifestyle and all my health metrics have dramatically improved. Thank you to channels - Dr Berg, Dr. Sten Ekberg and Thomas DeLauer.
Lots of nutritionists and doctors would obviously lose their jobs xD
So yeah, they say its fad diet.
They are also brainwashed by health ministers same way as in schools children get taught only stuff educational minister tells to teach, even if it isnt true.
Did the challenge. I'm fine. No issues. People have to realize that some things work for some people and not others.
This is by far my favorite channel. So glad I found you. I have experimented with every diet due to my hypertension.
I’ve cut bread consumption but I won’t give up my steel cut oats lol 😂.I’ve lost weight over the years and in a healthy range , no big belly. For those who may be worried about phytic acid in oats , soak them overnight and rinse the next morning , this will optimise nutrient absorption from your toppings
Eat oat groats instead. Even better than steel cut. Make a huge batch and let cool. Then the oats become a resistant starch
Thank you for ALL the time and research you've put into finding out this vital information and explaining it to us. I have literally watched ALL your videos over the past 2 years since I discovered you were here and your information has been 1000 times more helpful to me and my health than all the medical doctors I pay big bucks to visit. I've struggled with Insulin Resistance my entire life (and I'm old !) but I only have known what it is that I'm dealing with the past few years. I've made progress but still struggle. I'm currently dealing with high blood pressure that I haven't been able to bring down very far with natural remedies, so the MD's started prescribing pills and I developed allergic reactions to ten of them...yes 10...and now am on the 11th drug, which is causing other issues but not lowering BP. To bring a long story to an end, I was at the ER today for extremely high BP and nobody knows what made it spike or return to a decent, although not normal, number today, but the hospital sent me away with literature telling me I should be eating 8 servings of whole grains, 5 fruits, 3 nonfat dairy items and 3 protein choices every day, but I should avoid fats and salt AND I was stunned to read "You don't have to deny yourself sweets. You can have one small slice of cake or pie, 2 or 3 cookies, one scoop of ice cream or one 1/2 cup of pudding five days of the week." Oh, and never go more than 3 hours without a snack because you'll get so hungry you will overeat. So basically they gave someone with Insulin Resistance and a borderline glucose level the instructions to become diabetic by tomorrow. With the rate of obesity in the country growing on these "balanced" diets, where is the disconnect that makes medical doctors continue to spread this awful info to patients?
I quit smoking a few days ago. Not drinking for a few months either to detox. Went out last night with friends and had non alcoholic drinks at a bar. Drove home and considered fast food but remembered all I've learned on this channel. Went straight home instead and made a sandwich with all healthy ingredients. A handful of cashews too. Will be switching to pecans today as they're also tasty but have a better profile. It was delicious. I know carbs aren't particularly good for you but this was a huge step up for me. I feel really good this morning and just wanted to say "thank you".
Good. Watch the bread.
Congratulations. I wish I could do the same. It's so hard to quit 🚬 😫
Dr.berg, I use to eat a lot of bread,whole grain, everyday, I'm 54 years old, and I was wander why my bowel movements were almost Diarea . So I changed my diet, got rid of most of the bread. And now I'm pretty normal now , stiffer stool. So thank you for bringing this to all of us. I would have thought it was the bread and the nuts I was eating. Cheers from northern indiana usa
Looking fabulous for 56 Doc.! Keep up the great work you do for all of those willing to also put in the work!
Italians and greeks eat a lot of pasta , bread etc , they live almost 100 years , its the quality that matters , and i will not compare to what americans eat
Exactly!
So true!
Agree - it's about freshness, portion size and also movement and exercise.
Americans love to tell other people on the world what to eat and they always look sick whether they are fat or thin they don't look happy
Can you give us a guide on what to eat? Because most of the time, it's about what we should not eat and it's 90% of the food.
That type of video will be good, like perfect day of eating etc...
Check out Dr. GREGOR. And there are a whole group of health conscious people who eat whole grains and no refined grains. Yep no pasta, bread or pastry of any kinds. I have a pot of steel cut organic oats on the stove right now. Add 2 tablespoons or fresh ground organic flaxseed to reduce the glysemic effect. I have been tested for celiac and gluten sensitivity 4 times, the last time I was asked to eat more wheat leading up to the test. I ate a half a bag of whole wheat flour ( garlic bread, cinnamon buns, pizza) and they did biopsys and found I had no sign of gluten sensitivity. Everyone has there own amune system and the lectins that trigger a response in one person can have no effect on others. There's a test for food sensitivity, but none of the doctors I've seen will authorize it, as it might help me solve my health issues and put them out of a job.
@@judyundt9114 sure and thank you. Can you provide with his chanell ID?
Your lighting is perfect. Very relaxing to view. One and a half months on clean keto and everything is working like you said. Thank you for all your highly educational videos that help so many and answer the important questions when choosing a lifestyle way if living.
What is your routine?
I eat two meals a day strictly clean keto (intermittent fasting) and acv morning and night with vitamins and minerals. Lemon in my water and
watch Dr. Berg Videos daily for encouragement and sustainability.
@@robinkelly7787 the daily encouragement is a big part of it for a lot of people I think...the constant reminder of what awaits should you fall off the wagon.
I do IF, but I just can’t commit to keto, I’m baking traditional English dessert recipes at the moment for me and my uncle so it would never work.
Bakewell Slice, Manchester Tart, Apple crumble, millionaires shortbread etc etc...
I have made some of the Keto desserts and I wasn’t disappointed but almond flour and sweetener are very expensive to buy in the UK.
I have HIIT twice a week when I go to ice hockey training so at this point in my life I’m benefitting from the fasting and the HIIT keeps the excess carbs being used so I don’t get over weight.
@@Infiniti25 I see with your current baking fun that keto is not workable at the moment. Being off sugar for 6 weeks has changed my life. But I know some people have a hard time leaving the sugar and starches out. I’m not a sweet eater…. Potatoes and bread are my (were) my Achilles heel but have learned to have a few nuts and some incited salami as a treat when I need a little fat boost after a meal. Good luck and keep moving and go easy as you can on the carbs. 🤗
@@robinkelly7787 Looking back prior to October 2021 I see that probably 75% of my daily intake was carb and sugar laden and vegetables were possibly two or three times a week depending on what meals we had if we got time to make a quality evening meal.
A lot of sugar snacks, lots of pasta and rice and consuming a lot of bread based products like eating buttered toast, crumpets and bagels regularly. Cereal every day, mostly minimum of 70g in the deep ikea bowl with lots of milk, occasionally porridge, plenty of crisps, milk chocolate based treats, multiple home made fruit crumbles throughout the summer so dessert every night.
I’ve started fasting last October, eating a minimum of 2 eggs every when I get chance (sometimes with rosemary, basil, oregano and paprika plus Himalayan pink salt), with the following vegetables steamed - spinach, bell pepper, garlic clove, courgette, cucumber then covered in butter on the plate and then add crinkled pickled beetroot.
I only drink water most days anyway but now occasionally (maybe once a fortnight) I’ll have a blended lemon in water, if I have any throat or nose issues I’ll have a hot lemon and ginger at night or make ginger milk in a pan.
I barely drink milk except for a post ice hockey training nesquik milkshake to reduce the wind down time before bed since I train anywhere between 8pm-12pm on a Friday and Sunday evening.
I have started taking vitamin D minimum 10,000 IU most days if I remember to take it at a good time before I might consume some pro-biotic yoghurt which is once or twice a week if I remember.
I eat salted pistachios, salted cashews and salted almonds now pretty much daily. I have also cut down my water intake to between 1-2 litres whereas before I used to have a 1.5litre bottle I used to refill from my filter tap and I’d have anywhere between 1-6 litres a day, especially in the summer.
I’ve never bothered with alcohol and fizzy drinks are rare, I took myself off those when the dentist told me at 8 years old I’d have no teeth at the rate I was going.
I have never liked or consumed coffee and I stopped drinking tea when I was a teen, never liked it and it was very milky and full of sugar so I dropped that.
As a side effect of fasting I have unintentionally lost around 10Kg in the 6 months since October 2021. I was down to this weight in January pretty much.
I’m still susceptible to cold and flu but I’m not doing Keto so I won’t have the purported super immunity that is afforded by having little or no sugar feeding the bad stuff.
I mainly decided to make the change by accident because I’d seen some Dr Berg videos in September 2021 and I started a job in early October and didn’t have food with me and I’ve just kept going to work without food and eating whenever I get home between 2pm-6pm.
I do have weekends occasionally where I’ll break fast earlier like 10am.
I also still have desserts before bed like sticky toffee pudding with Madagascan vanilla custard because my partner isn’t doing any fasting or dieting.
I’ll still be having crumbles through the summer because I’ve got 2 pear trees and 5 fruiting Apple trees as well as 2 younger trees that will be productive in the next few years so I’ll be consuming most of those as well as the rhubarb, raspberries, loganberries, tayberries and blackberries.
Well done for making it this far 😅
Thank you Doc Eric because of you,We live in a happier,Healthier world..A blessed day greetings from Philippines
No thank Dr berg, I’m not trying grains for a month, I already know what will happen and it will be terrible, thanks to you I’m not craving bread and sweets now since two months, I’m feeling great! Peace and blessings
Thankyou for sharing your wisdom, it's much appreciated. ❤️
Impressive! I love these longer videos that really explain, in depth, the issues. Thanks, again, Dr. Berg!
Thanks for your feedback :)
You are my “go to” for the skinny on any food we eat. Thank you. I’m not eating any grain or grain by products right now for a number of reasons. Feeling better.
Dr. Berg, thank you so much for sharing with us all your knowledge and research. Was I wondering about the sprouted bread? Are they different in someway I noticed that the nutritional chart is high in vitamins
God bless you Doctor we need a lot more doctors like you in the US and around the world! Amen and Shalom!
Dear Eric, I will be 87 in May, and have basically eaten the same diet my mother started me with as a child. The only things that have gone wrong with me is that I started developing a smallish tummy about 10 years ago, and this year I developed arthritis which limits my ability for brisk walking and other activities. However, I have found that if I start to feel weary a slice of bread and butter picks me up quite well. I do not go overboard with carbs, but they do help me. On the brighter side I have several birds who have been hammering on my window in the morning for many years, and although they do not get over friendly, they do appreciate the fact that I serve them a few slice of bread chopped up in my kitchen whizz. Also they really appreciate breakfast oats. PS: I love your articles.
Wishing you a very Happy Birthday in advance with excellent health, endless happiness, eternal love and bliss!🤗💗🌹💗🌹💗🌹💗🌹💗🌹
That's beautiful. In prison, one humanity they couldn't strip us of was feeding some of our bread to birds outside the window. Except they defeated that at one stage by sticking us in a sealed oven that passed as a cell. Birds are just beautiful, as are cats, dogs, horses, kids and faithful people 😀
@@bahaar2825 Thank-you for best wishes. Much appreciate them.
@@Freedom4PalestineEndZioNazism Thanks for your message. Animals make lovely companions. As I get older I really appreciate them and one can tell they are happy with me. Also, I have a cat, who is no pushover, but he knows that birds are part of the deal in my household, and he leaves them alone.
What is the diet your mother fed you?
For years dietitians and doctors have been telling us “eat more fruits, vegetables and whole grains”! Thats as far as that went, I never imagined that “healthy” is a lot more complex than that! I appreciate you going the extra step to define what healthy really means!
It’s not more complex than that at all.
If you do that you will restore your microbiome and everything else sorts itself out.
I'm confused now since I have a fatty liver. What should my diet be?
So we shouldn't eat anything ? Veggies are good for you just eat them
Good video Dr Berg,
Can you advise if it is a good idea to transition from all grain and wheat to lentil products?
Thank you kindly 🙏🏼
Every video I watch, my brain just gets loaded with new fascinating information which I never forget! I'm 21 and I'm so grateful to have found your teachings Dr Berg, I'll always stick to the ways you teach. Here's to a blessed, healthy life to all.
A vegan diet made mostly of fruits and veggies is the best way to get the highest form of health... That said you are an adult and can make ur own choices, and u can get healthy in different ways but a whole plant based diet is best. And if you are a Christian read Genesis 1:29 it tells us what food God made for us to eat. God bless.
@@xolanekhumalo5929 People in the blue zones have lived the longest, and thats a fact. But I wouldnt write the Keto diet off. I think its a really healty way to go to
Me to
@@jeanpaultongeren125
Yeah I hear you, I'm no expert at all but what I get consistently from people who study nutrition literature based on actual tests made on people is that plant based is supreme over all diets for optimal health and its sustainable unlike ketogenic which is a good way to get healthy and lose weight in the short term because it eliminates a whole lot of unhealthy processed foods that cause sickness and weight gain. But as I said I'm Christian and what convinced me that plant based is best is Genesis 1:29.
Amen
thanks Dr. Berg! I can always count on you to provide such great info! is there a video you made on what to eat in lieu of these grains?
I was literally addicted to bread , buns any type of bread. Haven't had any bread for almost 6 months. Don't miss it or crave it anymore. Keto and IF is my life . Thanks for all the videos 😊
Lucky you i also was very addicted to breadsand all that im on keto for 2 months and when i see bread i still want a bite but i stay strong
Yea I did a basically no carb except every few weekends. My memory was adversely affected. It took 3 years of slowly eating small amount of quality grains to correct it. Haven’t watched video yet, but can tell you from experience no grains is not the answer. Your brain needs certain nutrients which a few are from grain sources.
To me It was a whole year... 😣
@@1014p what kind of grains are quality and in which recipe do you use it? Sorry I'm new to keto and I'm just getting myself familiar
Any tips on how to stop eating grains. I'm always craving bread for some reason
As an asian 52 yo mom, I've been eating and cooking *for my family) white rice until about 2 weeks ago, when I heard about keto & low carb diet. My husband (62) &I have been trying hard to stay away from all kinds of grains, including rice. Once a week we still eat sweet potatoes or cassava, as our main dish. We didn't crave for snacks in between meals as often as bfore But, just one question ; why does my husband always feel he?s got less energy while riding on his bicycle ? It was never like that bfore we decided to switch to a low carb diet.....Thank u, Dr Berg, I leaned so much from all ur videos. 💟 from Indonesia 🙏🇮🇩🌷
if high energy or exercise or younger, then some rice, or just banana or more sweet potatos be a must to add energy. It takes a while for your body to adjust. Takes long time to convert fat to quick energy for burning exercise...
@@user-py1jg6bb2r Ahha.....Thank u for ur explanation. That was really helpful. Have a blessed day !🤷♀️🙏

I’ve been eating whole grains and complex starches for over 30 years. In excellent health and my doctor is amazed with my annual blood tests.
i don't eat grains for 6 months and I don't even have a doctor anymore.
@@gringo77345 hmmm. I doubt Dr Berg would advise not going to a qualified physician for an annual checkup.
Dr Berg love your videos, one question are gluten free grains/flour any good?
Thank you as always Dr. Berg! Quick question: What's your opinion of the macrobiotic diet?
I did some research some years back and came to the conclusion that true sourdough long fermented grains are a completely different food from the commercial crap on most shelves these days. If you compare the glycemic load of fast rise yeast bread to sourdough there is a significant difference in the insulin spikes (sourdough's is almost non-existent and fast rise is basically sugar). There is also evidence to suggest that turning sourdough into rusk (or croutons or what have you) would additionally reduce the glycemic load AND increase insulin sensitivity (a good thing generally) by converting up to 25% of the sugars in the sourdough bread into resistant starch. If you long ferment and then further process to rusk/croutons you end up with something like a 1:2 protein to sugar content whole food, as opposed to a 1:4 protein to sugar fast rise toxic cocktail.
Definitely...You're right..this topic is so broad and so many factors are not considered...Blue zones being one of them..healthiest people on planet...eat fermented bread, clean carbs, vegetables, and some meat... low on; sugar laced....toxic, chemical laced foods...and zero farmed animals... you can't compare at all. The carbs eaten here in US and other brain washed countries is crazy..... Kids at lunch consume at least 125 carbohydrates in one seating... Its insane, I witnessed this for 11 years as a volunteer at Chicago Public Schools.. it was disturbing.. big bag of chips, large plastic bottle of sugar drink plus candy.. 125 grams of carbs is modest...I'm sure it was more..this was a daily occurrence by most kids..as young as 5 years old. Ofcourse we go to extremes like keto, we're hanging of a cliff.. not normal..these are extreme measures to take for health..NOT NECESSARY FOR BLUE ZONES...
“Until I was 28 years old. Roughly 5 years ago”.
If you’re not helping people save their health, you’re making them smile with your humour. You’re the best doctor in the world IMO. Physicians needs to learn from you. We need more Dr Bergs in this world.
came looking for this comment... he looks good for 33
Love you Dr. Berg! I always look forward to watching your videos!
Thank you for sharing this great video
Every time I think about cheating meal, I watch a video of Dear Dr.Berg, then I decide to stay on my diet because I got many great results. Thank you for daily posts. It helps a lot to be on the right diet.
Is it really worth getting sick?
Good idea!
Nothing wrong with a cheat meal. If you're disciplined, which you should be after dieting for some time, it won't become a permanent thing.
@@NorEEzta thank you. I have one cheat meal and so far am not sick.
Good motivation
I would like to see you and Dr. John McDougall have a conversation about diet. Whereas Dr. Berg normally advocates for keto and avoiding carbs, Dr. McDougall says humans should live on starch-based diets, and that the most successful empires of all time lived on starch. Would be a very interesting podcast.
Dr Berg brought up the point of grains being very different now than they were in the past. They may have lived and thrived in some ways but I know they suffered in quality of life. Egypt ate lots of stone ground bread and certain tribes of Indigenous Americans ate lots of stoneground grains; you can see in their dental records that they suffered various maladies from consuming so much grain. I believe there was even evidence of many Egyptians suffering from symptoms of insulin resistance and diabetes.
Incredible.
Thank you for sharing with us.
Your new look with beard looks awesome , please make a video on beard - is it good for health or not?
Now I understand why whole grains have always harmed my digestion. Anyway, I've been on keto for two years five months now and on OMAD for more than two months and that has done me absolute good. I don't think I' ll ever have second thoughts on OMAD
How about during holiday also OMAD
Super 👍

was just thinking of what you have to say on pasta ,it's almost like you read my mind everytime lol .thank you .
I just started watching your videos it has made me realize how much I love to eat.
I am currently preparing for my yearly summer diet, which comes almost naturally. With this step I am moving away from grain and feel much less tired, although sometimes I miss my body strength. However I know this to be a short term issue until the fat burning kicks in.
For body strength, it could be a lack of potassium? Or a lack of proteins from earlier meals?
@@experimenthealthyketo83 I believe that the blood sugar level at a certain stage is not maintained good enough. However I am in a situation where the temporary lack of strength is not a problem. I'll retry later. At a certain point, my body starts to burn fat, and then it's not an issue. Just the transition.
This topic is so broad and so many factors are not considered...Blue zones being one of them..healthiest people on planet...eat fermented bread, clean carbs, vegetables, and some meat... low on, sugar laced toxic chemical laced, factory farmed foods...and zero factory tortured animals... you can't compare them to everyone else at all.

You are blessing Dr Eric, my life has changed after following up with the videos you keep sharing on this channel. God blessed you.
Great video per usual. What's good pre and post workout foods for muscle/weight gain?
I can definitely concur with this...I'm 41 and have been weight lifting since I was 18. My pre-workout usually consisted of a big bowl of Grapenuts, Chex, Raisin Bran etc. In the beginning I got tremendous energy...until around maybe 27-28 when conversely it started triggering a energy "crash"/repeated urination trips, elevated blood pressure, waking up at night "bone dry" thirst despite always drinking plenty of water. I literally had no choice but to start moderating my carbs to continue being muscular/fit. One thing I will say good fats provide more "slow" energy in my experience, I'm Def not as explosive...but I'm physically stronger than I ever was in my 20's.
Side note for Berg; do you have any plans on making videos on "Long haul" COVID symptoms..micro-clots for instance? Or would supplementation for that issue be the same as regular clots, Serrapeptase, Nattokinase etc? Thanks
😂 none of us are as explosive once we hit our 40’s.
@@dontfit6380 lol yes of course, I was speaking more generally once I kinda "transitioned" over with fat as a primary fuel source (late 20's). My personal experience was more of a slow-burn as opposed to the crazy pumps I used to get in the gym.
Thanks so much Dr. Berg for all the info about grains..now, I know how it affects my digestion for many years. Now that I started Low carb diet, Ii feel so much better...thank you so much and as I continue this LCarb ...I already have inch by inch the benefits immensely. All your videos is a great help in every part of this world. Thanks again from Australia.🌸🌺🌹🌻🌷
After 8:00pm I do not eat , it has been 3weeks now and I have seen a lot of changes. Thank you Dr. Berg
Hey Doctor thanks for all of the videos You're making , they helped me so much but i was wondering if taking a dietary supplement for a big group of vitamins and minerals really useful ? . like (32 vitamins and minerals)
Doc I read that phytic acid acts as a antioxidant and could have some health benefits as long as you don't consume too much of it.
Whole grains are not the only food that contains it, you can find it also in nuts and legumes at a much higher percentage.
And meat is the worst thing to eat as it causes atherosclerosis and gut issues. Our bodies aren't made to digest them as we are not omnivores
Look into sprouted grains. I usually buy sprouted grain bread or Ezekiel bread. The sprouting of the grain supposedly releases the phytic acid
@Leonard 44 other nutrients can be antioxidants you don't have to eat phytic acid
Thank you, Dr. Berg. This video, as are all your videos, is absolutely vital! No longer diabetic type 2. Lost 70 pounds. As I live a healthy lifestyle, I am amazed daily by how my life has completely improved. Thank you!
Wow- that is wonderful! Thank you for sharing! Would you mind using this link to share your success story and tell us more about your journey? www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story We'd love to hear about it!
Dr.berg i had a question I've been doing the only eating once diet that I saw on one of your videos and overall its been working good I used to weight 111kg and since then I'm 106 and going down the problem is that I went to a gym where they gave me a food plan to follow but I'm unsure to do it because it's telling me to eat 4 times a day I wanted your recommendation should I stick with only eating once or should I try that diet, sorry for the inconvenience it's just that I really trust your recommendations because you really help me to lose weight faster than I could ever imagine.
Dr. Berg, what is your interpretation of the Macrobiotics practice, where the principal food is whole grain; not whole-grain breads or noodles, but the actual little whole grains themselves, founded by George Oshawa and later on embraced and studied by Michio Kushi.
Hi Dr., What are your thoughts on a cheat day once per week? Not over the top over eating, just a cup of rice. Will if hinder weight loss?
Many thanks for this amazing video. I sure got my wake up call. Inspite of doing Keto nd IF, i wasn't loosing weight because these starches nd grains were part of my 50 gms of carbs! Thank you Dr Berg
Happy you found it useful! Be well!
-Dr. Berg's support team
excellent, as everytime, but plus very emotionless and all importent details clear and on the point understandable
thxs a lot
Wow. A friend referred me.
So glad she did.
WOW!!! And all this time they were saying that eating good grains, seeds and nuts like almonds were great! Little did I know that Phytic Acid may have been responsible for the cause of osteopenia and/or osteoporosis as those mentioned minerals are not absorbed. But there is a question: why in some websites they say that Phytic acid is an antioxidant and actually helps bones and prevent cancer? I am confused in dealing with foods that have that anti-nutrient. I am a fan of Millet and Quinoa, but I see that Millet has some Phytic acid, and Quinoa Flour (which I DO NOT take) may have it as well. Is there a way how to take out the phytic acid from nuts and grains? Or, is there a series of supplements or vitamins that counteract the effect of Phytic acid?
I am 27 years old and I had major problems past 2 years. Nothing helped then I started keto and changed my diet. I feel so much better its like best medicine. But others think I am really wierd cause they still consume a lot of sugars, grains, precessed foods.
Welcome! Your in an exclusive group only a small percentage of the population can/will obtain. It is tough watching friends and family continue on their self destructive path having no clue their lack of nutrition is causing all their health problems and the need for so many prescriptions despite your best efforts to educate. Unbearable sometimes. You finally give up and drop hints. Like “maybe those donuts and 4 sodas a day your drinking has something to do with it?”
I have eventually (with your help) discovered that I cannot tolerate any grains or carbs whatsoever!
I started the whole grains 5 years ago and I REGRET IT. Everything I am battling now is from that; obesity, inflammation, pain in my left side abdomen, constipation, edema, pain in the feet, cravings, lethargy, irregular periods, bread addiction, etc. It is just too much. I am now trying keto and IF. I feel better but I kind of wish I came 5 years ago, I wish the pain would go immediately. Thank you because everything I try from this channel works.
Thank you Dr. Berg when I eat grains my body is in tremendous pain from inflammation. Thanks to you Dr. Berg for ALL your videos explaining all the bad in some foods. God Bless You and ALL Your Family Dr. Berg FOREVER AMEN🙏
Very glad to be of help.
@@Drberg ❤🤗
Like you I am in pain eating grain. Can you please tell you what do you eat instead for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Thank you Dr. Berg. My gut hurts eating grain everyday. What can we have for a healthy breakfast, dinner in lieu of grain?
@@annietran404 I only eat 6 oz of meat, either frozen green beans , broccoli, or Brussel sprouts and a salad. Or some times I like to eat 7 to 8 cups of salad with 6 oz of meat and vegetables. I fast 20 hours a day and then to only eat once a day.
I'm actually going to play this in the car for my wife and kids to hear! They think cereal is harmless no matter how much I explain!
I wish my husband would listen to me... but he doesnt care... good luck on convincing your family!! 🙏🏻
I’ve been telling my family this since i was twelve. My brother and dad ignore me and my mum still finds it difficult to understand that grains have starch in them.
@cloudy pudding Same here...,my husband is a hard headed I feel sorry for him, and it's pains me to watch him eating craps every single day.
When their blood sugar is very low and they get really hungry, and eating carbs solves that for them, within minutes, it’s very hard for them or anyone to focus. Have you tried increasing their proteins type foods or increasing potassium & vitamin B rich foods? Also you may to try recipes with Dr Berg’s electrolytes?
I got out of carbs addiction! This is totally possible. But it take to try his tips.
@@experimenthealthyketo83 That's a great advice! Thanks
Great content Dr. Berg! Thank you!
Good morning to you and thank you so much for your information.
I really enjoyed Dr.Berg's-The healthiest bread in the world-video years ago! Still on TY. Thank you again! LIKE
I couldn't lose weight to save my life and I was hardly eating - except for healthy grains, brown bread. Whole wheat pasta and rice. I had a ton of inflammation and was borderline type 2 diabetic.
I went keto, incorporated with intermittent fasting. I lost 103 pounds in ten months and my fibre is now sourced from coconut and almond flours, nutritional yeast, ground flaxseed and Psyllium husk. I believe that this is the correct human diet.
Flaxseed will kill your testosterone immediately
Stay with me that weight loss is due to a caloric deficiency that wasn’t possible when you were piling on carbs. People don’t understand it’s not these carbs that are bad its the associated eating habits with them. You lost weight because you were eating less than you expended in this case through less food and fasting.
I enjoy the comments as much more times than not....they back you up bigtime! As a trail runner, I do have some whole grain pasta however the bulk of the dish is garlic, Broc and Cali and also sardines but I do go out and burn it up. (2-4 hour jaunts) I just stopped with melatonin and Var root and I do notice...less groggy-from a pervious video.
My local bakery uses raw buckwheat flour,almond flour,psyllium husk etc.I can only eat that bread and feel comfortable after,they have a seperate oven too.Even if I eat something like sourdough eincorn I dont feel good after couple of times
Hey Dr. Berg, any advice on what to do about scalp residue? I find whenever I scratch my head I have some excess residue under my nails and I feel like this may be contributing to some of my recent hair loss. Even if it’s after I’ve recently showered, my scalp seems to produce some unnecessary flakes and stuff on my head. The skin on my head is not the healthiest I imagine and I want to master scalp health. For whatever reason, this was not an issue I had 2-3 years ago. My diet is unchanged over that time (I indulge in the occasional treat and sweets but mostly it’s pretty solid: eggs, cheese, avocado, chicken, protein, large salads) so I’m concerned Bc I don’t wanna lose my hair! I tried your scalp serum and so far have found not much of a difference 🙁 but I want to believe it will work!
Anyway, point is, I think my hair thinning has something to do with the condition of the skin on my scalp and feel like addressing this excess sebum and flakeyness will be helpful. Any tips? 😅
Vinegar rinse.
He has a video called "eyelashes" or "eyebrows" and says zinc deficiency is cause for hair loss
Thank you for sharing. I had severe bloating for yrs despite being OMAD because I was eating whole grains. Since I turned to keto no more of that. 🙏🙏🙏 Maybe you can do "underweight" as well? I'm just curious how low can we go without harming ourselves. I'm losing too much weight on keto so I'm forced to eat twice a day to maintain but I'm still losing. I was never fat. I feel healthier and happier with keto diet but I'm just curious and concerned about being underweight. This standard BMI just simply confusing. I hope you can share some advice.. Thanks 🙏🙏
Thank you so much for your wonderful videos with so many precious informations . Watching at this video I started asking myself if is possible that you can make a video about how carbs work in the children’s bodies ? Because especially in the early ages ( elementary school ) it’s so difficult that we as parents can make them eat the healthy food ( they tend to prefer pasta , rice , pizza etc. instead of the vegetables ) . I wandered is it dangerous for kid’s to eat so many carbs , is their body processing the carbs in the same way as adults , or because they are growing up it is more likely their body can accept better the carbs ?
Another great video nice one Doc much love watching from japan 🇯🇵
In the early 2000s, my X had a "class" on how to eat as a diabetic. The PA that was hosting told everyone that they should be, not only eating several small meals but that breakfast should include no more than 15 grams of carbs.
I asked how upping carbs by 100% would help anything (from the no breakfast intermittent fasting pov) and never did get a good answer - because there isn't one.
I remember it was something about maintaining a certain level.. not crashing or some crap like that.
These dietitians and school teachers have no real knowledge. What I’m assuming is that they think that anything with a GI lower than that of glucose is classified as being able to “control diabetes.
I ate only white rice for two months as a college student. I ate once a day. I put nothing on it other than the salt it was cooked with. I only drank water as well. I would have to travel by foot or rollerblade at least 2 miles a day if I traveled that day. To get to classes.
It maintained me. I did lose weight but not much. More from the exercise. I felt for all intents and purposes normal.
Your ability to eat once a day, as well has only doing it for two months, was most likely the reason for you not seeing adverse effects. When you graze on grains all day and don’t exercise for multiple years and even decades (which is what everyone does), the effect is extremely prevalent. Alongside vegetable oil, it is the key part of diet thats causing metabolic syndrome, acne, rosacea, IBS and cancer.
Dr.Berg thank you so much for all your do to inform us about Health and how we should take body.
I love your content! Thanks Dr. Berg
I remember that when I was in elementary school, they used to tell us about the food pyramid and how we needed to eat a lot of grains, bread, pasta, cereal and all that…
I had to quit keto, got kidney stones too often. Balanced diet, no more kidney stones
Rockin the beard Dr Berg!
Good morning Dr Berg,
Looking great!!
Wooooow, this video is awesome! You are a sponge,
aren't you?? Lol,
Could listen to you all day!
Have a blessed day💕
I'm zero carbs four months ago I became more healthy and more energy
The only time I lost weight is when I quit eating anything made out of flour. Reduced any and all other carbs to 20 g a day and cut back all sugar. I lost 6 inches in 10 months. Totally agree with you Dr Berg, thank you
@@MZ95 😂😂
You have provided the information to make the right decisions in my diet for life! Thank you so much🎉
Smashing stuff dr Berg 🤟💗 Thank you ⭐️
Who else misses Dr Berg standing next to to his board and delivering these knowledge bombs?
You can get that with Dr Sten Ekberg.
DR. BERG BE HANDING OUT MEDICAL AND HOW TO BE HANDSOME ADVICE.
I always like before even watching the video. Very informative. Thanks Doc!
Dr berg thank you thank you so much-needed information for me... keep allowing TMH to use you!! Really you answered so many questions and brought a lots of clarity
You look amazing in beard. I would suggest trim a space under the edges of your lower lip. It would further refine your look. Always a pleasure seeing you, hearing you and learning from you and dynamite pleasure obtaining the benefits of your advice.
Actually, trimming the space under the edges of the lower lip doesn't look very attractive. It looks intimidating. Dr. Berg's beard looks really nice the way it is. 🙂
@@bahaar2825 You easily get intimidated.
@@mohammadalitaj 😄
@@bahaar2825 😄
You’re so funny Dr. Berg! Okay 5 years ago, sure 😂😂😂 thanks for another great video.
Thank you so much for great information. I've been watching your videos for nearly one year and lost nearly 25 KG! I can send you my pictures or any information which might help others! I'm type 2 diabetic which I manage to reverse it and control it by regular exercise. Feeling much better than before. Thanks again for your advice and guidance
28 years old roughly 5 years ago? lol you meant 38. love these videos! I'm almost a week on Ketovore and I have NEVER quit carbs or brought them down and I already feel less pain in my joints! I think I'm sticking with this
Yup that made me super confused, maybe he was joking?
@Tina G same lol he did say he has very dry humor🤣 you could be right lol
