Im also a doctor from Malaysia. Really like this man. He knows everything regarding health issues. I wish i could be like him, someday. Can explain everything to people, make them aware about how important to be and stay healthy.
DR1 SHARE, you can be like Dr. Berg. Keep learning and keep asking questions when the answer is "we don't know". Th body is amazing and it follows specific processes. Learn the processes and you will unravel the answers. Blessings!
About ten years ago I got Mono. It went away after a few months but I was left with a horrible autoimmune disorder that lasted for almost two years. My life felt like it stopped because I was so ill. Although not able to help directly, my GP told me that I was very low on Vitamin D so I started taking 5000 IU every day. Eventually and unexpectedly, my health was restored (I truly thought my life was over) and I've been well ever since. I'm 63 now and every day I express gratitude that I'm able to walk so fluidly and play the piano without any arthritis (parents and grandparents had it). I'm very lucky indeed. Thank you Dr. Berg for all this priceless information.
Since you had mono you have the Epstein barr virus you can't cure it only suppress it. Looks like you are doing a good job of that. Dr Berg has a video on it
My mother grew up in extreme poverty. She had rheumatic fever, and polio in childhood. She developed psoriasis as a teenager. As an adult, she struggles with constant infections such as boils. Diabetes, hypothyroidism, ....her medical history is pages long. She takes many, many, many meds and has a terrible relationship with food. Now in a care home at age 92....in severe pain ....whacked out on pain killers. I do my best to live holistic lifestyle. So far, at age 71, no RX meds! I can't change my mother's history but, hopefully, I can not follow in her footsteps.
I healed my lupus and restless legs syndrome by quitting all processed foods and also going organic (as much as possible). I don't know the science of it all, but it worked for me!
id go starch free, no grain. no processed food. be careful with sugar. eat super clean for 30 days, then you can slowely ad some foods. and see how u react. ive overcome bad a/s just by eating different. No more meds.
@@May3567 hi. Well I started w keto eating. Lost weight. Got rid of inflammation. Tossed meds. Walk a mile a day. HIIT workouts. I use kettleballs. I eat salmon, sardines, cod, broc, cauli, asparagus, kale, berries, eggs, celery w guac, olives, dill pickles, chicken, sauerkraut, avocados, green and white teas, mushrooms. VitC. 500 2x day. Zinc 50. Mag 450. Seabuckthorn oil 1000, VitA10,000i.u., Fish oil 1000, selenium 100mcg Lysine 1000mg. But that's just me😉 good luck and stay safe!!!.
This was incredibly useful and informative. 10 years ago I was diagnosed with Lichen Planopilaris, which was later changed to frontal fibrosing scarring alopecia. I’m unsure as to the difference. But for the past 18 months I’ve taken vitamin D, omega 3 and turmeric daily. I also took up meditation around 10/12 minutes every morning and I have seen a noticeable improvement. My hair has stopped falling out, I’ve lost about 15% around temples/ forehead, and I’ve lost eyebrows and beard. I should say I’m a 60 year old man, the condition having started at the age of 50. I know stress caused the problem, my job at the time was incredibly stressful, I really do believe we underestimate the sheer collateral damage stress has in our physical and mental health, and I speak as a retired mental health clinician.
Dirty Genes book will add greatly to your knowledge. It sure helped me. Tween DR. Berg, my personal Functional Med doctor, and that book... game changing. I deal with a lot as well.
Writing from Texas to say thank you for sharing your knowledge in these videos. I've learned many things I didn't know. You have a nice voice and you are a handsome young nan. I'm old enough to be your Momma so I can say that! God bless you!
Hi Dr Berg I'm a Naturopath in Australia...university degree We have been preaching Leaky Gut Syndrome for many years 20 years plus especially the connections in auto-immune diseases I absolutely love your channel & highly recommend to many family, friends & patients Many thanks Dr Berg
look into using lots of glutamine powder daily. We really learned the benefits of this long ago treating HIV patients. And more later on. There are algorithms so seek the cause of GI irritation. Have the GI doc run them. Is your pancreas doing what it needs to in order to digest food; is your stomach putting out enough HCL; do you have intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) causing a mass of problems (very common these days and easy to detect). So, I recommend lots of Glutamine daily (buy bulk powder online cheap); and, see your GI doc to determine why you have GI troubles.
I have a whole collection, and not just the normal ones, like RA (which I also have) but Myasthenia Gravis, and some other more common ones. I eat the autoimmune diet. No nightshades, no high FODMAPS, no grains... trying to heal my gut. Which has really helped as now I can cheat with cream cheese stuffed jalapeños! And no stomach pain! I don’t do it very often cuz of the jalapeños being nightshades and those chemicals or whatever is in nightshades like tomatoes... used to kill my stomach. Now I do IF and keto AND AIP (autoimmune protocol diet) so I’ve lost 35 pounds and I don’t take any medication and I’m not in a wheelchair any more or wearing a neck brace to hold my own head up, or take Mestinon every 4 hours to breathe. I can do a one minute plank and I can walk around Walmart. Just giving up gluten alone, was life changing. I’ve added all your suggestions to my world and I’m on a whole new level. And yep, I tested low low low on vitamin D. Thanks for all you do.!
Stasia X my doctor told me 5,000 per day and I am always just barley above or below in my bloodwork. Teetering on the edge of low. I don’t get much sun at all. And I take one with the appropriate K2... so I’m thinking I need to do a lot more
Amber Delivered yep, my food is my medicine and I take zero pills for any of my issues. They had me on 60mg of prednisone daily and wanted to raise it. I was taking pills for all of it... that was ten years ago. I don’t take any meds. I love tomatoes but the chemical in that nightshade, makes my arthritis go crazy. Sometimes I cheat, knowing I’m gonna hurt for days. Then I remember why I don’t eat the,, lol. I’ve cheated enough in ten years to know without a doubt, that what I eat, triggers my autoimmune stuff. It’s a hard diet to stick with but like they say, if you are sick enough, you will do it... when you cheat enough, you will remember why it’s so important not to cheat. I still cheat, lol. I guess I haven’t learned my lesson yet. My hubby can eat anything, he is lean and fit and healthy and he eats HORRIBLE stuff every meal! Tons of sugar and bread and corn syrup. He’s 63 and can do a 6 minute plank and never has an arch or pain. I don’t get how some people can eat whatever and still be so unaffected. But whatever flipped the switch to autoimmune, I’m stuck with it and the least little thing will send me into a nose dive. But it’s so hard to watch him eat a pack of Oreos or a giant pizza or a big waffle cone full of ice cream. I know there are keto ice creams out there but I miss my freaking waffle cone, lol. I’m so weak but I can’t afford to cave
I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in 2016 and was given methotrexate and told to take 4000 to 5000 ius of vitamin d. I realized the vitamin d ius were low so I started taking 10,000 ius when covid hit. I stopped taking methotrexate about a year ago and I haven't had any problems or flare-ups with RA. And, I haven't had a cold since February, 2019.
@@karishmakeswani7068 I don't know. I used to see a rheumatologist every 3-4 months but he got sick months ago and passed from the covid in early 2021, and I haven't been to one since. My primary physician suggested that I continue taking them but I don't because I've been getting around fine with no flare-ups at all. I'm hoping it's totally gone...if that's possible. Good question.
you are a blessing to us ..to mankind ..i wonder what motivates you to do all this research and to gain knowledge and spread it all over without any cost ? ..you must have a great heart inside u de berg ...your biggest fan from Pakistan❤
Manna, I am not questioning whether he is a good person with a wonderful heart, but those videos are on UA-cam for a profitable reason. I still like his videos very much and watch them frequently.
The Elephant I do believe him to be a good man. You are correct with as many followers as he has his videos are very very profitable. Unless you were independently wealthy you would be a fool to spend so much time studying this stuff and producing videos without some compensation. Even if you were independently wealthy you would still be a fool to do this without compensation. I don’t trust anyone giving something for free.
I personally have no any autoimmune issues but I take 20.000 IU D3 daily!)) it's no toxicity or so about D3!! - ONLY plenty of different benefits for our health!! 👍🏼☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️✨
@@stasiax9498 we have toxicity cases and sadly a fatality due to wrong prescription and Vit D overdose. Consider lowering the dose, the best is to take it buccally with a spray. I've seen some youtuber MD talking how vit D is not toxic, but that's not true.
Yes but having tried keto which encouraged me it is Carnivore that making the huge difference. I bought an expensive adrenal glandular with pantothenic acid formula; took it but suspected it was causing me more hot flashes. Could be eating a plant and animal fats, which mess with the guts digestion. so not using it, walking 2x daily lowers blood sugars or is it blood pressure after my 2 meals a day; and my energy has soared so I feel vital & stronger after 18 hrs of fasting intermittently.
I recently had my thymus removed with a tumor on it. Benign thank God. I was having autoimmune symptoms from it but was negative. Since it being removed a lot of my symptoms have gone away.
I suffer from auto immune conditions now and have been for years and have a high calcium score higher than I like. Now I know why I have to take very high dose D3 with K2 and heal my gut lining by reducing lectins. Thanks to Dr. Berg's videos.
I would suggest also going low oxalate. I had autoimmunity too and the lectin free diet did make me about 50% better, but going low oxalate took me the rest of the way.
Dr. Eric teaching is easy to understand. I feel so satisfied and I feel like I'm like a soldier who is armed for battle. He always goes for nutrition, not " take this pill ".
This is pure genius plus a generous soul ‼️ You are a BLESSING Dr Berg, I’m a health pro and researcher, plus autoimmune patient. Thank you thank you🙏🏻
I have yet to listen to one of his videos that was bad. I've yet to listen to one of his videos where I have taken nothing from it that was good. So clear, so concise, but simple. He really loves his work, and he really wants people to know how to care for themselves. he is a real, good doctor.
Brilliantly explained as usual. Love your video so helpful to understand what has happened to my body and Why I suffer from hypothyroidism. Thank you so much.
With autoimmune I have hidradenitis suppurativa. I've had this for 18 years and I'm 63 now. Painful and nothing seems to help. I am seeing a Doctor and we'll see where this goes. You have great information and explain things very well, thank you.
Yes! Watching these videos clearly shows how amazing our bodies are - like a finely tuned machine. Simply genius how things work together and how the Lord put everything on His earth to nourish us and keep us healthy without big pharma... Thankyou for your teachings, Dr. Berg!
awww this took me all the way back to medical school 🥰 ...my favorite thing to do back then was to draw out the entire immune system, with every last cytokine in there. i miss it. thanks doc!
Same but different this took me back to boarding school where jermaine used to rape me behind the bike sheds and my favourite thing to do was report him but no one ever believed me.
Here in Australia, we've had decades of government sun phobia advertising like 'There's no such thing as a healthy tan!'. Sunshine is the still the best source of vitamin D.
I'm in the US, 60 years old grew up in the poor south where no one ever heard of sunscreen least of all could afford it. No one ever got skin cancer and we were in the sun from sun up to sun down. I've NEVER used sun screen and I spend as much time in the sun that I have time for. I believe people who get skin cancer have nutritional deficiencies that lead to the cancer and not the sun. As a kid everything we ate was fresh with little to no sugar and fruits. We also did intermittent fasting, also known as dirt poor.😢
@@micaonyx5301 I'm 62 and the other day I mentioned to my husband that you never even heard of sun cancer when we were coming up. We were trying to figure out why it's so prevalent in this day and time.
The ozone is truly much more damaged than it was in the 20th century. 20min of sun exposure per day is enough for light-skinned people to get enough vit D. The darker your skin, the more exposure you require
He never addresses the fact that after age 40 your own body makes less & less to No vitamin-D-3 (not D but, D-3) & Suppliments are necessary. Idk why he does not mention this? its fact- been discovered in studies with blood draw after a days of sun shine & measured. young lifeguards sitting 6 hours/day age 21 produce 150,000 iu’s to 250,000 iu’s while after age 40 by 50 making nothing after 6 hours/day in the sun & same blood draw/ measure.
@@micaonyx5301 not true with your “belief” in skin cancer/ deficiency theory. just because Your genetics / you escaped skin cancer doesn’t mean your idea s true. While i do believe we are way healthier with some daily sunshine, genetics & FACT fair skin, freckle type people have a higher rate of skin cancer. Irish, Scottish, Eastern European decent ppl. Even more than lovely Scandinavian decent & Germans. They seem to tolerate the sun better, less sunburn, less wrinkles, less brown spot sun “Damage”
How is it with over a decade of suffering from an autoimmune condition this is the first time I learn this? Shame on doctors for withholding this info from their patients or just being plain ignorant. 😤
You rock. I have had eczema for several years now that is now getting much better. Keto with IF, vitamins A, B-complex, D, E, zinc, selenium and Omega 369 have been my regularly taken additions (every 2 days) and daily vitamin C in large dose. BUT ALSO recently DAILY collagen powder in a drink and extra Biotin have brought about even greater improvements. I expect to be "cured" of my Eczema (to perhaps 95%) within another 6 more months. After 3 months of Keto/IF with vitamins and supplements I have reached at least 70% to 80% improvement. My dermatologist was super impressed when I last saw him two weeks ago for a follow up. Last year, same time (before I learned of Keto etc) I had to be put on prednisone for 7 weeks. I don't look anything like I did then. To the observer, I seem to have no obvious eczema.
Thank you Dr. Berg I'm taking Vit D3/K2 and started taking selenium to. I have noticed my energy has increased a little. God Bless You and Your Family Dr. Berg FOREVER AMEN🙇♀️✝️🙏
Thank you so much for all this valuable information. Bless you for all your hard work and for sharing your knowledge with us. You are a true benefactor.
@@Drberg Hi! All your video's are so helpful, thank you, and I pass on all that I've watched. Question: Can we get too much vitamin D if it is in supplement form? Doc stated last year I was at 110 and too high. That was an easy fix reduce what I took. If 200,000 to 400,000 I.U., is a therapeutic level then how is 110 too high when nothing near 2000,000+ was taken? Or could it of meant it wasn't as low as thought in the first place? Are there side effects to taking the higher amounts and how long would one take the higher amounts for? Your response is appreciated! You are tops and a go-to resource that helps many! Much appreciated from all of us!
Your videos are simple, helpful and informative. I appreciate your efforts and videos. Please don't stop making your videos. It's helpful to lots of people like me.
Stress stress stress. I had a variety of autoimmune conditions kick in after a 6 month period of stress. Trouble is - life comes with stresses that are impossible to avoid.
Infection, stress, and malnutrition sum up why I believe I've had an autoimmune disease since I was a baby! My mom didn't have a healthy pregnancy with me. I was born prematurely at a bad time in her life so she ended up with terrible postpartum and neglected me a bit. She would leave me sleeping all day without feeding me and I was already only 4lbs when I was born. So that's the stress and malnutrition part lol the infection part could've been in utero or shortly after birth.
This is a video I really needed to see because 2yrs ago I was diagnosed with MS after MRI scan. I did exactly what u are talking about but took 400,000iUs a day and no more MS. No more pain in the right leg. Also note that I had to go get so many blood tests and all came back normal but my Neurologist said he was very worried as my D Levels were practically non existent. My K2 and high dosages of Hormone D3 fixed it all up. Now Summer here so soaking up the natural sunlight 👍 - I can’t remember now about the pain I suffered because no more 🙂
@@waynebrewer8908 - Hi Wayne .. looking back it took a good 7mths for my body to feel normal again and not feel that horrible pain I was getting with my right leg only .. not to forget I was also building and restoring my myelin sheath that the parasites were chewing at. A lot of making beef broth and also when I was lazy .. used the beef powdered broth. This with my high dosages of D3 worked so good together to restore what my body was lacking 👍
Here's what caused mine: - Not enough sleep for an extended period of time. Averaged maybe 4 hours for many days for about 6 months. - More stress in my life than I normally deal with, for an extended period of time - Eating out too much, for an extended period of time (I was so busy with work and family that I ate out every day for 4-5 months). It was higher quality restaurant food, but it was still restaurant food. - Not near enough sun. Because I was working so much I got almost no sun for an entire summer. Labor day weekend I was as white as could be. First time in my entire life this happened. Every other year I normally have a nice tan by mid June at the absolute latest. Add all that up, and autoimmune issues began. It's been a long journey (almost 3 years) to correct all of this, but I'm almost at 100%. (It takes a long time to break the human body to the point you get autoimmune issues, and it takes a long time to heal it - especially when you don't know how to at first, and finding good information isn't easy.) Tips (based on experience, that I wish I knew going into this): - Get Sun!!!!! - Get Sleep!!!!! - Avoid artificial light, especially Blue Light (it messes with your hormones more than you realize) - you really don't want ANY exposure starting a couple hours before you want to sleep. - Do not eat any grains, any processed foods, any nuts. Pretty much take all of Dr Berg advice except I strongly suggest limiting veggies and going more animal (grass fed beef, pasture raised X, wild caught seafood). The one thing I disagree with Dr. Berg on is the amount of veggies he generally suggests eating. Veggies have lechtins and other defenses that wreak havoc on the human body in the long run and definitely exacerbates any autoimmune issues you might be experiencing. Nutrients in veggies are generally also a lot less bio available to humans. We are designed to primarily eat meat and get our nutrients from meat, not plants. Do note, I'm not saying eliminating veggies completely. I have found that certain types help or at least don't cause problems. Specifically fermented foods like sauerkraut and pickles. Leafy greens, nightshades, and cruciferous though, avoid avoid avoid. I say this from experience. I tried the veggie way at first. It doesn't work. In fact it exacerbated my problems. You'll find a great many other people out there who have cured themselves of autoimmune issues saying the same thing...
@@4EverTrying hm that is alot to handle. You know I used to eat cruciferous and leafy greens and I felt good but I was healthy at that time. I was sick since last year, then I noticed I felt better eating less veggies. I have possibly so many problems but my doctor won't check for them. I wanna check stomach acid, my thyroid my liver. I heard before that thyroid is just secondary to other problems, usually liver starts it. Honestly I have no idea what to eat, or what supplements to take, I lost alot of weight I'm under BMI. I take omega 3, i feel without them my body is inflamed. Should I just take omega complex?
I found out last year I was misdiagnose pediatric doctor years ago thought I only had IBS and is actually Ulcerative Colitis still waiting for the right treatment
I spoke to man with MS who claims he has put his MS in remission with similar high doses of Vitamin D. I didn’t believe it or was quite skeptical but now I’m considering giving it a try.
Thank you…. My sister and brother died of autoimmune disease (type 1 diabetes) and i always wondered why i was spared… now I understand .. i was the one that played outside all day long .. riding my bike and playing in sandbox, etc and my brother and sister stayed inside and played indoors most of the time…. Vitamin D must have created the difference…… so why are we shortening kids recess time in schools???
I have battled juvenile diabetes since I was a young child. I was very active and playing outside every day. 5 decades ago Drs still had diabetics on very restricted diets. I definitely didn’t have the carbohydrates necessary to sustain my being active and blacked out many times. The point being...I had much sun but I’m certain my levels needed to be raised. My sister rarely went outside. She was overweight and eventually had issues with her pancreas being stressed as an adult. This was rare when I was a child, obesity was not common. Juvenile diabetes is not caused by a lack of sunshine or I wouldn’t have had this nasty disease all my life.
Very good information sir. Earlier had this problem when I was suffering from IBS problem. Inflammation goes by grace of God and homeopathy I cured myself. U have spoken absolutely true. New information I got from u. Thanks for sharing this video

Fascinating. I had no idea that those dosages were being used for autoimmune issues. I recently used 50-80K iu at day for several days to kill a flu virus (or COVID, but who knows!). My levels were already good, thank goodness, or I may not have fared as well. I would love to see more information around disease and dosing from the natural health community; I think many people would benefit from it. Getting a baseline number is required, and many doctors are routinely checking levels nowadays.
March 2020 became ill. Fever for 3 days. Was working full time at a new job. 1&1/2 months later developed pneumonia. Tested neg. 4 c o vid. The swab was barely put up my 👃. Then the same place I was swabbed I had cold sores in sinus cavity. Shortly after that had 👂sinus infection & brochitus. July 2020 diagnosed with rymatoid arthritis. What a year. I take cinnamon, turmeric, gluten free 95% of the time. Eating much healthier. I wonder if such a lenghy illnesses produced an auto immune disorder? What do you think? 🙏🙋
I have a sun allergy in the spring when I first start going outside again. I get an itchy rash on the top of my hands (about 10 years), and now this year the top of my feet as well. It's a mild annoyance for a couple weeks, but I'd rather take care of the problem.

I was on vitamin D3 but apparently not enough because I kept getting sick. So I began taking much larger amounts of it, and behold, I stopped catching everything that came my way. With COVID I guess I got carried away, because my vitamin D level got way too high, toxic levels (150)
Really helpful video. I have Addison's and suffered huge stress for afew years. I also had afew attacks where i was very sick for days at a time. Ive been on hydrocortisone but since taking vit D and zinc my health has improved a lot. I wish you were my GP lol.

I got RA 1 week after my immigration vaccination. It's been very depressing and I currently take 60000iu of vitd3 and k2 600. No medication because humira destroyed my immune system all my lips will be covered with sore. I wish doc Berg can really be specific about the line of treatment for this disease. It ruins life. Pls help us please.
If you are able to, I would seek out an Integrative or Functional Medicine practitioner who will focus on holistic treatment methods. I was vaccine injured as well- there are thousands of us. The AIP (Autoimmune Protocol) diet has helped with my inflammation/pain the most. And look into detoxing for the heavy metals in the vaccines. I hope you find solutions and recover soon!

You need to read the Bible Jesus loves you. Or read daily affirmations to think positive Find beauty in everyday living. Don't set yourself up to negativity. Be mindful. ❤
Everything, I am about to say is up to you to choose if you want to listen & apply it or not. You have FREE WILL. You are the first, tool in your own toolbox so you need to take care of yourself. Take responsibility for your own self care and look after yourself. Take care of your own needs & believe in yourself. I don’t know your circumstances but if you are hungry then eat. If you need rest then rest. If you need to remove yourself from a stressful, environment then remove yourself. If you need help and/or support then ask yourself who can I turn to who do I trust. You get the picture? You ALWAYS have a choice. Do not, believe the LIES whether, they are your own or others. You have been conditioned to blame and judge yourself. STOP IT. You ARE good enough or you would not be here & you ARE worthy. Here is your new mantra: “It’s okay to be me” & here is another. “All good things flow to me easily.” Now, go write down 20 things you like/love about yourself. Being, self aware is not being selfish which is why you have to start putting yourself first & giving yourself the freedom and the LOVE that you need. I have 3 new rules for you. 1. No, self judgement 2. No, self criticism 3. No, stories (about the past). Ask yourself what brings me JOY? Now, Follow, Your Bliss. Good luck 🙏🏼
Very helpful. Can we take more vitamin D ourselves or do we have to involve a doctor? I dont trust my doctos....seems like I know more about RA than they do.
You're probably correct. They can't heal you anyway. They can only manage the symptoms until you become worse enough to warrant a hospital stay or surgery. Meanwhile the drugs they give you cause other problems which begin to surface after a few years. So now you need drugs to manage those symptoms too. See how it works?
Hello! Dr Eric, immensely appreciated your presentation of Autoimmune disease/ beneficial to all arthritis sufferers. My first time to know about autoimmune disease, I started consuming Vit D 3 daily to fight this disease, now I m experiencing so much arthritis in my body , both of my knees and back has osteoarthritis, turning 78 yrs next month, is this a sign of aging ? God bless you Dr Eric and your family, more power to your career ! 🙏🌟😇🙏
I don’t think I can take vitamin D. I have tried several times and didn’t feel well at all. Finally felt so much exhaustion and found out my thyroid levels are off.
Thank you Dr Berg for explaining that so beautifully. That message will be well received now by the type 1 diabetics I tried to tell them this before 🙏🙏👍👍 the fact that Vitamin D is so important. There is a trigger for type 1 diabetes. A stress event. With lack of vitamin D it can be a big problem.

About ten years ago I got Mono. It went away after a few months but I was left with a horrible autoimmune disorder that lasted for almost two years. My life felt like it stopped because I was so ill. Although not able to help directly, my GP told me that I was very low on Vitamin D so I started taking 5000 IU every day. Eventually and unexpectedly, my health was restored (I truly thought my life was over) and I've been well ever since. I'm 63 now and every day I express gratitude that I'm able to walk so fluidly and play the piano without any arthritis (parents and grandparents had it). I'm very lucky indeed. Thank you Dr. Berg for all this priceless information.
Beautiful🙏🏾 .. how long were u taking the vit D and any particular brand? x
Since you had mono you have the Epstein barr virus you can't cure it only suppress it. Looks like you are doing a good job of that. Dr Berg has a video on it
So good to hear this. I'm only 47, lost all fluidity in both my knees, difficult to walk even a few steps for me.
@@revathik9225have u gotten better?
God that healed you will also heal me too in Jesus name.
My mother grew up in extreme poverty.
She had rheumatic fever, and polio in childhood.
She developed psoriasis as a teenager.
As an adult, she struggles with constant infections such as boils.
Diabetes, hypothyroidism, ....her medical history is pages long.
She takes many, many, many meds and has a terrible relationship with food.
Now in a care home at age 92....in severe pain ....whacked out on pain killers.
I do my best to live holistic lifestyle.
So far, at age 71, no RX meds!
I can't change my mother's history but, hopefully, I can not follow in her footsteps.
I healed my lupus and restless legs syndrome by quitting all processed foods and also going organic (as much as possible). I don't know the science of it all, but it worked for me!
That's amazing ❤️
Healed it as in cured it and it was undetectable? Or healed as in you didn't experience the symptoms as severely but you still have lupus?
Amazing that is great. My mum had both Lupus’s. She kept a lot of it at bay by teas, herbs, and eating more close to nature.
Miss her ❤️❤️❤️
Dr Brooke Goldner cured her lupus by going plant based. She has a couple books on it.
Congratulations can you please tell me what you eat I’m trying to get rid of allergies
I've curbed my lupus w healing my gut. Weight loss. Eating clean. Intense & mod wrkouts. High D VitC mag zinc omegas. Better life!

This was incredibly useful and informative. 10 years ago I was diagnosed with Lichen Planopilaris, which was later changed to frontal fibrosing scarring alopecia. I’m unsure as to the difference. But for the past 18 months I’ve taken vitamin D, omega 3 and turmeric daily. I also took up meditation around 10/12 minutes every morning and I have seen a noticeable improvement. My hair has stopped falling out, I’ve lost about 15% around temples/ forehead, and I’ve lost eyebrows and beard. I should say I’m a 60 year old man, the condition having started at the age of 50. I know stress caused the problem, my job at the time was incredibly stressful, I really do believe we underestimate the sheer collateral damage stress has in our physical and mental health, and I speak as a retired mental health clinician.
Sure is that's stressful. You're dealing the other person's problem and mental issues.
Dirty Genes book will add greatly to your knowledge. It sure helped me. Tween DR. Berg, my personal Functional Med doctor, and that book... game changing. I deal with a lot as well.
My hair and health problems all started at menapause. 💔
Damn my alopecia started at 23 😢
Hows your condition now has your hair started to regrow

Hi Dr Berg
I'm a Naturopath in Australia...university degree
We have been preaching Leaky Gut Syndrome for many years 20 years plus especially the connections in auto-immune diseases
I absolutely love your channel & highly recommend to many family, friends & patients
Many thanks Dr Berg
Is it possible to have type1 diabetic and hyperthyroidism without leaky gut and normal range of vitamin d. Thanks
look into using lots of glutamine powder daily. We really learned the benefits of this long ago treating HIV patients. And more later on.
There are algorithms so seek the cause of GI irritation. Have the GI doc run them. Is your pancreas doing what it needs to in order to digest food; is your stomach putting out enough HCL; do you have intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) causing a mass of problems (very common these days and easy to detect).
So, I recommend lots of Glutamine daily (buy bulk powder online cheap); and, see your GI doc to determine why you have GI troubles.
@@markhuntermd agree 👍
I have a whole collection, and not just the normal ones, like RA (which I also have) but Myasthenia Gravis, and some other more common ones. I eat the autoimmune diet. No nightshades, no high FODMAPS, no grains... trying to heal my gut. Which has really helped as now I can cheat with cream cheese stuffed jalapeños! And no stomach pain! I don’t do it very often cuz of the jalapeños being nightshades and those chemicals or whatever is in nightshades like tomatoes... used to kill my stomach. Now I do IF and keto AND AIP (autoimmune protocol diet) so I’ve lost 35 pounds and I don’t take any medication and I’m not in a wheelchair any more or wearing a neck brace to hold my own head up, or take Mestinon every 4 hours to breathe. I can do a one minute plank and I can walk around Walmart. Just giving up gluten alone, was life changing. I’ve added all your suggestions to my world and I’m on a whole new level. And yep, I tested low low low on vitamin D. Thanks for all you do.!
I'm so happy to hear all your success. ! Food is power. !
Wowww!!! 😯👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤜🏼🤛🏼✌🏼
Vagabond mango, what is your D3 dosage?? 🤓🧐
Stasia X my doctor told me 5,000 per day and I am always just barley above or below in my bloodwork. Teetering on the edge of low. I don’t get much sun at all. And I take one with the appropriate K2... so I’m thinking I need to do a lot more
Amber Delivered yep, my food is my medicine and I take zero pills for any of my issues. They had me on 60mg of prednisone daily and wanted to raise it. I was taking pills for all of it... that was ten years ago. I don’t take any meds. I love tomatoes but the chemical in that nightshade, makes my arthritis go crazy. Sometimes I cheat, knowing I’m gonna hurt for days. Then I remember why I don’t eat the,, lol. I’ve cheated enough in ten years to know without a doubt, that what I eat, triggers my autoimmune stuff. It’s a hard diet to stick with but like they say, if you are sick enough, you will do it... when you cheat enough, you will remember why it’s so important not to cheat. I still cheat, lol. I guess I haven’t learned my lesson yet. My hubby can eat anything, he is lean and fit and healthy and he eats HORRIBLE stuff every meal! Tons of sugar and bread and corn syrup. He’s 63 and can do a 6 minute plank and never has an arch or pain. I don’t get how some people can eat whatever and still be so unaffected. But whatever flipped the switch to autoimmune, I’m stuck with it and the least little thing will send me into a nose dive. But it’s so hard to watch him eat a pack of Oreos or a giant pizza or a big waffle cone full of ice cream. I know there are keto ice creams out there but I miss my freaking waffle cone, lol. I’m so weak but I can’t afford to cave
Dr. Berg, you explain everything so well. You truly are an educator, and that is greatly appreciated!
I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in 2016 and was given methotrexate and told to take 4000 to 5000 ius of vitamin d. I realized the vitamin d ius were low so I started taking 10,000 ius when covid hit. I stopped taking methotrexate about a year ago and I haven't had any problems or flare-ups with RA. And, I haven't had a cold since February, 2019.
HURRAHHH FOR YOU GOOD FOR YOU!!!!

I think the state of the Adrenal Glands are really underestimated in autoimmune conditions and need to be highlight more.
So true!!!
Yes but having tried keto which encouraged me it is Carnivore that making the huge difference. I bought an expensive adrenal glandular with pantothenic acid formula; took it but suspected it was causing me more hot flashes. Could be eating a plant and animal fats, which mess with the guts digestion. so not using it, walking 2x daily lowers blood sugars or is it blood pressure after my 2 meals a day; and my energy has soared so I feel vital & stronger after 18 hrs of fasting intermittently.
Agreed!!!
Exactly!
Love you Doc! Your work and videos are a blessing!!
I recently had my thymus removed with a tumor on it. Benign thank God. I was having autoimmune symptoms from it but was negative. Since it being removed a lot of my symptoms have gone away.
I suffer from auto immune conditions now and have been for years and have a high calcium score higher than I like. Now I know why I have to take very high dose D3 with K2 and heal my gut lining by reducing lectins. Thanks to Dr. Berg's videos.
I would suggest also going low oxalate. I had autoimmunity too and the lectin free diet did make me about 50% better, but going low oxalate took me the rest of the way.
Dr. Eric teaching is easy to understand. I feel so satisfied and I feel like I'm like a soldier who is armed for battle. He always goes for nutrition, not " take this pill ".
This is pure genius plus a generous soul ‼️ You are a BLESSING Dr Berg, I’m a health pro and researcher, plus autoimmune patient. Thank you thank you🙏🏻
I have yet to listen to one of his videos that was bad. I've yet to listen to one of his videos where I have taken nothing from it that was good. So clear, so concise, but simple. He really loves his work, and he really wants people to know how to care for themselves. he is a real, good doctor.
Brilliantly explained as usual. Love your video so helpful to understand what has happened to my body and Why I suffer from hypothyroidism. Thank you so much.
What an absolutey amazing channel. A wealth of information that everyone can access. . Thank you.
With autoimmune I have hidradenitis suppurativa. I've had this for 18 years and I'm 63 now. Painful and nothing seems to help. I am seeing a Doctor and we'll see where this goes. You have great information and explain things very well, thank you.

awww this took me all the way back to medical school 🥰 ...my favorite thing to do back then was to draw out the entire immune system, with every last cytokine in there. i miss it. thanks doc!

As usual dr berg - excellent and easily understood information. So much appreciated

Here in Australia, we've had decades of government sun phobia advertising like 'There's no such thing as a healthy tan!'.
Sunshine is the still the best source of vitamin D.
I'm in the US, 60 years old grew up in the poor south where no one ever heard of sunscreen least of all could afford it. No one ever got skin cancer and we were in the sun from sun up to sun down. I've NEVER used sun screen and I spend as much time in the sun that I have time for. I believe people who get skin cancer have nutritional deficiencies that lead to the cancer and not the sun. As a kid everything we ate was fresh with little to no sugar and fruits. We also did intermittent fasting, also known as dirt poor.😢
@@micaonyx5301 I'm 62 and the other day I mentioned to my husband that you never even heard of sun cancer when we were coming up. We were trying to figure out why it's so prevalent in this day and time.
The ozone is truly much more damaged than it was in the 20th century. 20min of sun exposure per day is enough for light-skinned people to get enough vit D. The darker your skin, the more exposure you require
He never addresses the fact that after age 40 your own body makes less & less to No vitamin-D-3 (not D but, D-3) & Suppliments are necessary. Idk why he does not mention this? its fact- been discovered in studies with blood draw after a days of sun shine & measured. young lifeguards sitting 6 hours/day age 21 produce 150,000 iu’s to 250,000 iu’s while after age 40 by 50 making nothing after 6 hours/day in the sun & same blood draw/ measure.
@@micaonyx5301 not true with your “belief” in skin cancer/ deficiency theory. just because Your genetics / you escaped skin cancer doesn’t mean your idea s true. While i do believe we are way healthier with some daily sunshine, genetics & FACT fair skin, freckle type people have a higher rate of skin cancer. Irish, Scottish, Eastern European decent ppl. Even more than lovely Scandinavian decent & Germans. They seem to tolerate the sun better, less sunburn, less wrinkles, less brown spot sun “Damage”
How is it with over a decade of suffering from an autoimmune condition this is the first time I learn this? Shame on doctors for withholding this info from their patients or just being plain ignorant. 😤
This is probably one of the most important videos I have ever watched and passed on, thank you
You rock. I have had eczema for several years now that is now getting much better. Keto with IF, vitamins A, B-complex, D, E, zinc, selenium and Omega 369 have been my regularly taken additions (every 2 days) and daily vitamin C in large dose. BUT ALSO recently DAILY collagen powder in a drink and extra Biotin have brought about even greater improvements. I expect to be "cured" of my Eczema (to perhaps 95%) within another 6 more months. After 3 months of Keto/IF with vitamins and supplements I have reached at least 70% to 80% improvement. My dermatologist was super impressed when I last saw him two weeks ago for a follow up. Last year, same time (before I learned of Keto etc) I had to be put on prednisone for 7 weeks. I don't look anything like I did then. To the observer, I seem to have no obvious eczema.
Hi, I'm suffering from bad eczema and using the awful Prednisone on and off to survive. I'm just wondering if you are taking a high dose of vit. D?
Yes. Either that or it has gone dormant.
Thank you Dr. Berg I'm taking Vit D3/K2 and started taking selenium to. I have noticed my energy has increased a little. God Bless You and Your Family Dr. Berg FOREVER AMEN🙇♀️✝️🙏
Do you take
That for you thyroid?
Thank you so much for all this valuable information. Bless you for all your hard work and for sharing your knowledge with us. You are a true benefactor.
Wow! That was very informative! I have been dealing with auto-immunity for over 40 yrs. Thanks
Glad you found it so informative!
@@Drberg Hi! All your video's are so helpful, thank you, and I pass on all that I've watched. Question: Can we get too much vitamin D if it is in supplement form? Doc stated last year I was at 110 and too high. That was an easy fix reduce what I took. If 200,000 to 400,000 I.U., is a therapeutic level then how is 110 too high when nothing near 2000,000+ was taken? Or could it of meant it wasn't as low as thought in the first place? Are there side effects to taking the higher amounts and how long would one take the higher amounts for? Your response is appreciated! You are tops and a go-to resource that helps many! Much appreciated from all of us!
Your videos are simple, helpful and informative. I appreciate your efforts and videos. Please don't stop making your videos. It's helpful to lots of people like me.
Stress stress stress. I had a variety of autoimmune conditions kick in after a 6 month period of stress. Trouble is - life comes with stresses that are impossible to avoid.
Infection, stress, and malnutrition sum up why I believe I've had an autoimmune disease since I was a baby! My mom didn't have a healthy pregnancy with me. I was born prematurely at a bad time in her life so she ended up with terrible postpartum and neglected me a bit. She would leave me sleeping all day without feeding me and I was already only 4lbs when I was born. So that's the stress and malnutrition part lol the infection part could've been in utero or shortly after birth.
Same for me!! my mom got Typhus due to soiled water when she was pregnant with me.
I love that he could explain in a simple way. Helping a lot of people.
This is a video I really needed to see because 2yrs ago I was diagnosed with MS after MRI scan. I did exactly what u are talking about but took 400,000iUs a day and no more MS. No more pain in the right leg.
Also note that I had to go get so many blood tests and all came back normal but my Neurologist said he was very worried as my D Levels were practically non existent. My K2 and high dosages of Hormone D3 fixed it all up. Now Summer here so soaking up the natural sunlight 👍 - I can’t remember now about the pain I suffered because no more 🙂

@@waynebrewer8908 - Hi Wayne .. looking back it took a good 7mths for my body to feel normal again and not feel that horrible pain I was getting with my right leg only .. not to forget I was also building and restoring my myelin sheath that the parasites were chewing at. A lot of making beef broth and also when I was lazy .. used the beef powdered broth. This with my high dosages of D3 worked so good together to restore what my body was lacking 👍

You are very welcome
Here's what caused mine:
- Not enough sleep for an extended period of time. Averaged maybe 4 hours for many days for about 6 months.
- More stress in my life than I normally deal with, for an extended period of time
- Eating out too much, for an extended period of time (I was so busy with work and family that I ate out every day for 4-5 months). It was higher quality restaurant food, but it was still restaurant food.
- Not near enough sun. Because I was working so much I got almost no sun for an entire summer. Labor day weekend I was as white as could be. First time in my entire life this happened. Every other year I normally have a nice tan by mid June at the absolute latest.
Add all that up, and autoimmune issues began.
It's been a long journey (almost 3 years) to correct all of this, but I'm almost at 100%. (It takes a long time to break the human body to the point you get autoimmune issues, and it takes a long time to heal it - especially when you don't know how to at first, and finding good information isn't easy.)
Tips (based on experience, that I wish I knew going into this):
- Get Sun!!!!!
- Get Sleep!!!!!
- Avoid artificial light, especially Blue Light (it messes with your hormones more than you realize) - you really don't want ANY exposure starting a couple hours before you want to sleep.
- Do not eat any grains, any processed foods, any nuts. Pretty much take all of Dr Berg advice except I strongly suggest limiting veggies and going more animal (grass fed beef, pasture raised X, wild caught seafood). The one thing I disagree with Dr. Berg on is the amount of veggies he generally suggests eating. Veggies have lechtins and other defenses that wreak havoc on the human body in the long run and definitely exacerbates any autoimmune issues you might be experiencing. Nutrients in veggies are generally also a lot less bio available to humans. We are designed to primarily eat meat and get our nutrients from meat, not plants. Do note, I'm not saying eliminating veggies completely. I have found that certain types help or at least don't cause problems. Specifically fermented foods like sauerkraut and pickles. Leafy greens, nightshades, and cruciferous though, avoid avoid avoid.
I say this from experience. I tried the veggie way at first. It doesn't work. In fact it exacerbated my problems. You'll find a great many other people out there who have cured themselves of autoimmune issues saying the same thing...
@@4EverTrying hm that is alot to handle. You know I used to eat cruciferous and leafy greens and I felt good but I was healthy at that time. I was sick since last year, then I noticed I felt better eating less veggies. I have possibly so many problems but my doctor won't check for them. I wanna check stomach acid, my thyroid my liver. I heard before that thyroid is just secondary to other problems, usually liver starts it. Honestly I have no idea what to eat, or what supplements to take, I lost alot of weight I'm under BMI. I take omega 3, i feel without them my body is inflamed. Should I just take omega complex?
I definitely second this. Plants do more harm than good. When trying to heal the gut and recover from chronic illnesses, avoid plants.
I've had a very similar experience and have come to almost the exact same conclusions as you based on my experiences.
I have psoriasis and eating greens is making me itchy--my TCM acupuncturist told be to eat soups, stews, bone broth...feeling much better
What veggies do you eat?
I found out last year I was misdiagnose pediatric doctor years ago thought I only had IBS and is actually Ulcerative Colitis still waiting for the right treatment
STRESS It can do a lot of harm to our body. Thank you Dr. for the highly informative and useful videos

Thank you…. My sister and brother died of autoimmune disease (type 1 diabetes) and i always wondered why i was spared… now I understand .. i was the one that played outside all day long .. riding my bike and playing in sandbox, etc and my brother and sister stayed inside and played indoors most of the time…. Vitamin D must have created the difference…… so why are we shortening kids recess time in schools???
I have battled juvenile diabetes since I was a young child. I was very active and playing outside every day. 5 decades ago Drs still had diabetics on very restricted diets. I definitely didn’t have the carbohydrates necessary to sustain my being active and blacked out many times. The point being...I had much sun but I’m certain my levels needed to be raised. My sister rarely went outside. She was overweight and eventually had issues with her pancreas being stressed as an adult. This was rare when I was a child, obesity was not common. Juvenile diabetes is not caused by a lack of sunshine or I wouldn’t have had this nasty disease all my life.
I grew up on a farm. Outside everyday. I have arthritis and autoimmune disease...and, so do my siblings.

Fascinating. I had no idea that those dosages were being used for autoimmune issues. I recently used 50-80K iu at day for several days to kill a flu virus (or COVID, but who knows!). My levels were already good, thank goodness, or I may not have fared as well. I would love to see more information around disease and dosing from the natural health community; I think many people would benefit from it. Getting a baseline number is required, and many doctors are routinely checking levels nowadays.
I listen and watch Dr. Berg every day.
Love your videos Dr Berg. They are Short sharp and to the point. Thank you for helping me to live a healthier life.

None of the doctors ive seen over the years have told me to make sure i get the right food and vitamins, which i think they should have. Great stuff Dr Berg...
Amazing information Doc! 👌🏻
Just amazing! 👍🏻
Mind blowing! 👍🏻
Superb! 👌🏻
I have R/A and vitamin D and cod liver oil have helped me to almost remission. Thanks for this and all your videos. super helpful.
May i ask, what is your daily dosage? Thank you!
@@lf7065 I take 10,000iu per day and a tablespoon of quality cod liver oil, good health to you.
@@ctsfiddler Thank you so much! I'm currently on 5000 IU's, but my report showed that my values are not increasing after 3 months so i will up my dose! 🙂
@@lf7065 you may get more from cod liver oil. I don't take methotrexate anymore after 7 months of 10,000 iu and a tbs of cod liver oil daily. My doctor was shocked at my recovery. I wish to same for you.
@@ctsfiddler Worth a try! What brand do you use? I'm only on my second week of oral Methotrexate, and two weeks in on 40mgs Prednisone. New to all this!!
Iv tried taking vitamin d for my psoriasis is but dosnt seem to work is there anything else i shd be doing with it
I am just coming thru alopecia two years and healing.
If there's any consolation, a friend of mine got this some years back. Today, she has a head full of hair, gained back her weight and is happy and cheerful as ever. Good luck now!

Terence what did she do to get her hair back ?
sandrazee 0000 how did you get hair back
How did you heal yourself ? Thank you .
Thank you for doing the research and sharing it with us.
Why is it that regular doctors would give you a prescription and medicine with side effects instead of finding the source for the problems?
Lovely video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽, you explain this so easy, even a kid would have no doubt about It!
I got RA 1 week after my immigration vaccination. It's been very depressing and I currently take 60000iu of vitd3 and k2 600. No medication because humira destroyed my immune system all my lips will be covered with sore. I wish doc Berg can really be specific about the line of treatment for this disease. It ruins life. Pls help us please.
Oluwaseyi Igbalajobi try going gluten free, cured my RA. The slightest slip up, including cross contamination, leads to swollen joints for weeks.
If you are able to, I would seek out an Integrative or Functional Medicine practitioner who will focus on holistic treatment methods. I was vaccine injured as well- there are thousands of us. The AIP (Autoimmune Protocol) diet has helped with my inflammation/pain the most. And look into detoxing for the heavy metals in the vaccines. I hope you find solutions and recover soon!
The eng3 machine is relieving this disease big-time. Check out their website. It helps correct mis-channeled cell signaling. The inventor and wife are on youtube . Probably have to sleep with it ...
@Christy Slow it's so funny that I have high prolactin levels. Which shows my pituitary gland is not functioning properly and I have been diagnosed with hyperprolactinoma. Which I use to take bromocriptine for to get babies. But usually stop after conception. You are right about diet thou.
My mom told me my psoriasis started shortly after a round of school vaccinations
I have autoimmune thyroide discovered at 19 , now I have eczema on my face and I know why I have them .Big stress ,suffering and very poor self esteem until today because I am a very sensitive person who take everything very personal and I blame and judge myself since I was a kid.
You need to read the Bible
Jesus loves you. Or read daily affirmations to think positive
Find beauty in everyday living. Don't set yourself up to negativity. Be mindful. ❤
Everything, I am about to say is up to you to choose if you want to listen & apply it or not. You have FREE WILL. You are the first, tool in your own toolbox so you need to take care of yourself. Take responsibility for your own self care and look after yourself. Take care of your own needs & believe in yourself. I don’t know your circumstances but if you are hungry then eat. If you need rest then rest. If you need to remove yourself from a stressful, environment then remove yourself. If you need help and/or support then ask yourself who can I turn to who do I trust. You get the picture? You ALWAYS have a choice. Do not, believe the LIES whether, they are your own or others. You have been conditioned to blame and judge yourself. STOP IT. You ARE good enough or you would not be here & you ARE worthy. Here is your new mantra: “It’s okay to be me” & here is another. “All good things flow to me easily.” Now, go write down 20 things you like/love about yourself. Being, self aware is not being selfish which is why you have to start putting yourself first & giving yourself the freedom and the LOVE that you need. I have 3 new rules for you. 1. No, self judgement 2. No, self criticism 3. No, stories (about the past). Ask yourself what brings me JOY? Now, Follow, Your Bliss. Good luck 🙏🏼
In Crohn’s Disease TNF has been identified as the cause of inflammation. What part does TH-17 play with TNF in Crohn’s Disease? I do take Vitamin D.
Cut dairy. If you haven't already.
your content should go viral
Hi so how long should I take the supplement vitamin D ? And is it 200,000-400,000 per day?
20000
You re hands down THE best doctor out there
Very helpful. Can we take more vitamin D ourselves or do we have to involve a doctor? I dont trust my doctos....seems like I know more about RA than they do.
Take the corresponding vitamins so you don't deplet vit C etc.
You're probably correct. They can't heal you anyway. They can only manage the symptoms until you become worse enough to warrant a hospital stay or surgery. Meanwhile the drugs they give you cause other problems which begin to surface after a few years. So now you need drugs to manage those symptoms too. See how it works?
Hello! Dr Eric, immensely appreciated your presentation of Autoimmune disease/ beneficial to all arthritis sufferers. My first time to know about autoimmune disease, I started consuming Vit D 3 daily to fight this disease, now I m experiencing so much arthritis in my body , both of my knees and back has osteoarthritis, turning 78 yrs next month, is this a sign of aging ? God bless you Dr Eric and your family, more power to your career ! 🙏🌟😇🙏
how are you now?
Can you make a video about things we can do to help with symptoms.
I don’t think I can take vitamin D. I have tried several times and didn’t feel well at all. Finally felt so much exhaustion and found out my thyroid levels are off.
Thank you!
Wonderful work doctor. Thank you
Most welcome!
You did not mention waxseens. Look at all the autoimmune diseases listed on the childhood injections' adverse reactions lists.
Fascinating!
Thanks for the information.
before I watch the video my answer is:
1- Vaccines top of the list
2- stress
3- vitamins & minerals deficiency
How to clean ur system of vaccine?
@@jesusiscomingbeready8169 hard to say. Keto & fasting are the best bet next to prayer. Vaccines only hurt people.
I’ve fought autoimmune diseases for over 30 yrs now.
Thanks doc. Im already taking 4 - 6 cod liver oil caps as Vit-D supplement for more than 10 years..
Thanks for your time and help
Thank you Dr Berg for explaining that so beautifully. That message will be well received now by the type 1 diabetics I tried to tell them this before 🙏🙏👍👍 the fact that Vitamin D is so important. There is a trigger for type 1 diabetes. A stress event. With lack of vitamin D it can be a big problem.
Diabetes 2 starts by trigger, not type 1
Stasia X actually DT1 is def triggered!
My husband is T1 and he got it after his parents divorced :(
Dr Berg. Is there a way we could find information on this subject. The root cause of type 1 diabetes ?
I love everything you have to say. I am so interested in so many of your topics some pertain to me. Thank you
There is a connection between the lymphatic system and autoimmune disorders. Been reading a lot of new evidence on it
Adrenals, too.
