I had fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. Depression panic attacks anxiety. Keto 4 years. No meds. Fibro gone.
Did Keto help with your depression as well? I was on keto for about 5 months, but suffered some financial setbacks that derailed my efforts. I'm going to start again, but this would give me even more reason!
That’s great news!
@@paintdgryphon5414 ketosis eliminated my depression completely, and not in mild way, but in a way that i feel like im on drugs everyday (in a good way) calm peaceful feels like i have discovered a cheat code also it has improved my cognition significantly, it does take time though i been doing keto diet for a year and the true benefits of improved mood and cognition really kicked after 7months, im doing the classical keto diet so 3:1 - 4:1 ratio
@@paintdgryphon5414 if youre not restricting your protein you might not get the antidepressant effects u might be looking for, too much protein will increase insulin therefore ur ketones will drop
Me too gone 👏
remember when doctors were telling patients that fibromyalgia was all in their heads?
So so often! So not cool also that they all dismissed not many tried to figure it out!
I’ve been told almost everything I ever complained about was in my head. Shameful! I was 11 when I first got really sick and it took 30 yrs to FINALLY get something done.
Sure do
@@torakfett3351 same here! I’ve been sick since I was 9 and I’m 28 and just now finding out what’s wrong with me! I almost took my own life because of the fatigue. I was so lost and just felt like giving up because I felt there was no point. But I’m finally eating better, and doing better 🙌🏻
Yes, in the 80’s they offered Valium or atavin and sent you home !
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about ten years ago. Over the years, l stopped drinking coffee, eating sugar, doing a gluten free diet and a keto diet. Substantial difference in the shooting pain l used to suffer nonstop throughout the day.....
Doctors aren't interested in helping at all. Mine told me to stop watching UA-cam. She should start watching, she might learn something. Thanks for the great upload Doctor Berry👏👏👏👍.
Hats off to you !!! What stop free education to heal your body...They can go to hell!
The pain is all in your head. JUST KIDDING.
@@spaceghost8995 u have no idea how many times ive heard that without it being a joke.
@@oliverspindler7913 Yes you have.
They dont want you healthy theres no money to be made.
I have had untreated fibromyalgia for 25 years and I can barely walk. All I can say is that it is definitely not being caused by meds because I have none. So I gotta go with the foods being the problem. I am going to try this Keto thing. Wish me well please and maybe send a prayer my way, I sure could use it.
Any updates? Prayers up for you, from Iowa! 🙌🏼
Prayed for you! God bless your journey.
I went from Keto to Carnivore, and I will tell you that not eating veggies has helped my fibromyalgia. Especially the nightshade plants. I know it also helps arthritis to not eat these as well. I pray for your lifestyle journey and hope you find the way you need.
I gave up carbs and anything white in my early50’s I was up 30 pounds in pain depressed tired but still going full pace with raising sons working holding on to house getting tense social lives always on demand. I started seeing myself in lass pain even fogettin* about it. But this is the same reason all of a lot of diseases could be cured or managed through “ proper nutrition” no drugs
If you're willing to try new solutions, I would encourage you to consult with an osteopath and find a Hellerwork practitioner. I have had excellent success with both. An osteopath can find things that a Chiropractor can't and the Hellerwork practitioner will release your fascia which may be the cause of your pain.
I've had fibromyalgia and CFS for over 35 years, and I doubt if there's been a day go by that I didn't think about just giving up on everything. After having it for so long, I'm too weak and exhausted to do anything. I can't hardly go to the bathroom or get anything to eat, much less take the steps to adjust my diet, or anything else to improve my health. Unless you're in this bad a shape, you can not possibly imagine how hard it is just to sit up and move in the slightest, much less do anything more. I have no one to help me either. Because I don't look sick and disabled, I get no understanding and help. It's a living nightmare I wouldn't wish on anyone.
@@dixiedixiedal Hope 🥲
Renee I’ll add my 2 bits and say that I’ve also reversed 25 years of excruciating pain and bone-crushing fatigue by eating strict keto-carnivore. I had to also eliminate dairy to get complete relief (and I sure miss cheese and sour cream, but I don’t miss the pain at all!!) but it was SO worth it!!
there's gotta be some plant or herb that holds the cure.
@@rochellestark9767 🙏 were you having depression and anxiety too? May I ask what you can eat or what not ? Thanks
Don't give up I applied for disability 3 times and got denied the times. Had to try something on my own. Keto is free. I work two jobs 6 days a week. I am 50 now I don't take any pills.
My friend works for a big law firm in Vancouver, Canada, and she has literally seen drug companies bury treatments and cures for various issues because the company wouldn’t make money off it. They buy the treatment or cure and just make it so no one can make that drug. She wouldn’t specify but she said she is seriously disturbed by what she’s seen them hide.
This is where your friend needs to leak this information for the good of humanity. Tell her to do the right thing.
This is whistle blowing the world needs. In the US, insiders from the insanely corrupt FDA need exposed!
@@Melted_Butter DEFINITELY!
Or at least leak the cures. Give the innocents who suffer a miserable (life) a chance to have family love us instead of avoiding us.

white collar criminals
We know most healing modalities are suppressed so pharmsters make money off the sufferers. It’s diabolical.
Got diagnosed with this, called out to jesus for help... I then quit all my medication, anti depressants and pain medication and started weight lifting, high protein diet. I'm okay now 🙂 😊
HalleluYah❤️
Hallelujah ❤❤❤❤
Praise JESUS
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and later diagnosed with pcos and ultimately stage 4 endometriosis. This started almost 30 yrs ago. As a nurse at the time for 14 years I turned to keto, despite a rheumatologist telling me I would suffer for the rest of my life. I refused Lyrica due to way too many side effects. I continue to find relief by following a low carb high protein diet, and a steady weight-lifting regimen. I took high-grade iodine drops after being diagnosed with Hashimotos, and my nodules disappeared. Ditch the carbs, cake and bread. My A1c remains low. I completely revised my diet. Magnesium reversed my plantar fascitis. . None of this happened overnight. I did acupuncture and chiropractic visits, and meditation for anxiety and depression instead of pain meds and welbutrin. Did end up w/a hysterectomy. Firm believer in ashwhaghanda and Sam-E. I'm 60 years young and getting better every day. Still working as a nurse too for 28 years. I occasionally have a drink and some chocolate, but try to make it rare. Lots of options. Take back your power folks and do your research. America is about options!
Thank you for sharing your story. It's great that, as a nurse, you're open to alternative medicine options.
God bless you dear!
Thank you so much for sharing your story. Stories like this need to be heard.
I wish my wife would follow up on her symptoms and situation as creatively and scientifically as you did. If I research this topic and suggest something, she discounts it.
@@SuppersReady8880 😢
As a retired physician I find it absolutely fascinating that SO many disorders, diseases and ailments are caused by hyperinsulenemia. I so wish that this information had been available when I was in practice. Very grateful to Dr. Berry for bringing all this information out to the public. He has spent so much of his time and labor to the benefit of others, and his videos are free for all who wish to improve their health. He has convinced me to switch to a low carb diet, and I am looking forward to improved health. Thank you, Dr. Berry!
Doctors should continue educating themselves after medical school, as Dr. Berry, Dr. Mason, Dr. Baker and others have done.
We learned Pluto was a planet in school. Now we know, what we were taught was wrong.
@Page Riskin if you read Dr Derrick Lonsdale’s book about thiamine deficiency, dysautonomia, and high carb malnutrition, it will blow your mind when it comes to the effects of hyper insulinemia and how it can lead to sub clinical beri beri and other effects across the board. My jaw hung open most of the time I read it, despite a solid medical and nutrition background.
It was available. You probably didn't read it. At the expense of your patients.
@@korenna123 and how exactly are you making the world better?
@@karuzelastudio7858 well, as physicians completely ruined my life and gave me chronic illness by ignoring my initial symptoms I now spend my time researching and sharing that research with others to prevent them from having the same experience if possible. Highly recommend reading unwell woman by elinor Cleghorn and doing Harm by Maya dusenbery.
Physicians add some of the most harm to society, particularly to women.
What are you doing to improve the world?
I have fibromyalgia and stop taking my cymbalta and gabapentin. Switched to low carb/ keto. My pain has decreased and I lost 30 lbs..
Good on you! No one listens to our body better than ourselves, the drugs they prescribe actually worsen symptoms over time by damaging liver even more than the IR already has. Be well ✌
Good move, cymbalta is terrible for your liver
Bravo!
Awesome Job!!!!
Awesome! 👏😃 I swelled up like a balloon on gabapentin, couldn't even wear slide on shoes. It will be better without it.
I agree with lowering carbs - especially wheat and processed sugar to help. However, my intense body pain came from STATINS that I had been poisoned with for 15 years. When I told my doctor and pharmacist that I was in so much pain and exhausted, they UPPED my dose. I felt better 2 weeks after getting off of them.
Statins are PURE POISON!! Within 2 months of taking them, I lost all muscle - I couldn't hold my head up. I finally called my doctor and he said to STOP THEM IMMEDIATELY - and HOPEFULLY my muscle would return - they weren't sure. Thankfully it did but a drug with that severe side effects - that aren't all that rare, should NOT be FDA approved!
lower wheat? no wheat is the only answer...
@@moonhunter9993 I agree. I recently fell off the pizza wagon and paid the price of eating wheat for a few days. Still, the pain was nothing like what I suffered with Lipitor.
@@Sheerkat7 fair enough. I hope this diet helps you stay pain-free.
Exactly my experience. Six doctors consulted as I became unable walk more than 50 yards w/o gritting my teeth in pain, each neglected to mention that 5 to 30% of people had painful leg reactions. I was told I would likely have much increased risk of stroke and heart attack if I quit taking them. I was told that the pains came from spinal stenosis, and I needed to go to a neurosurgeon to get evaluated for surgery to help such pain. I went onto Pubmed for 20 minutes, and found six papers with data explaining such pain I had had increasing for 25 yrs. I cut to 1/2 dose with no improvement. My GP said try 1/10th dose to see. I did that, and had no relief. I quit, and had almost immediate relief, and no longer needed Ibuprofen to live. Buyer beware. IMHO
I have fibromyalgia, and it’s a very painful debilitating condition, it’s pain that never lets up. I could cry when I think of kids and young people with this disease. I can’t thank Dr Berry enough, you’re amazing and doing a great job in speaking out, we all know why this information is withheld, it’s all about money.
I’ve stared a new diet today, no carbs no sugar, I must be dumb Dr Berry, I love soft drinks 🥤so they’re gone as well. 😩 Thank you, once again.
Regardless of where the research takes us, corporations need to get out of he way. This is tantamount to fascism, oligarchy corruption. Well done Doctor
Tantamount.... No it literally is all of those things!
This is good info. However, no one in this day and age should be ignorant to the harmful affects of eating crap continuously can and will do to the body. Eat whole, real foods! Stop eating Franken-Food!
The original snake oil salesman, JD Rockefeller, destroyed real medical knowledge so he could sell patented petroleum-based fake medications that cause other problems for extreme profits. He kept a naturopathic doctor for himself though and lived to age 92
Its corrupt capitalism. Corruption period.
The “discovery” of quinine changed the world. Slavery to our own heath is shameful, but that is how the game is rigged.
I'm a PT. I had a patient with fibromyalgia that went on strict keto. She lost >60 lbs and drastically improved her pain symptoms, and thus did not need PT anymore. Did PT help? - A little, but we both felt it was diet that made the biggest change.
I would say it was the loss of not carrying around 60 unnecessary lbs that made the difference.
@@Ryan_DeWitt I agree. I have fibro and only weigh 120 if losing weight got rid of fibro it wouldn't help me.
@@madhatter909
A lot of Fibromites are severely underweight. Many cannot manage without Ma Nature's sacred herb. My mother was skin and bones when she had heart surgery at 79 and never made it out of the hospital. It was after that my daughter received her FMS dx and then me. Stress is our enemy. My narcissist father was the carrier. The only grandchildren without fibro turned out to be a narc herself. Now we await the health of the.4th generation.
Then she had other pain disorder - not Fibro
@@ursamagickmt672 TOTALLY AGREE. SEE my answer to dr before I read your response. Mine also started as a child with an abusive father
Back in about 1982 I lost a good deal of weight on what was then Atkins, Low Carb. Early 90s, I remarried, had another child, and gained back weight and got to a max weight of 252. I went back on what I knew for me, worked and went back to low carb, eventually losing over 100 lbs. However in between I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I had no idea at that time, as to a connection between carbs and Fibro but it makes so much sense. Getting remarried and pregnant also changed my lifestyle to the point that I was making meals for the family based on their preferences and of course that included potatoes, veggies, macaroni, pastas etc.
After losing the weight, as my family grew up and my then husband walked out (it seemed my weight loss caused unexpected jealousy and insecurity for him, rather that appreciation) I have gone back to eating low to no carb meals. I haven't had a Fibro Flare now in years. I think I now know why...
I have had fibromyalgia for 25 years. I now have small fiber neuropathy and am connecting the dots and trying to learn how to heal with diet and supplements. I worked in the pharma industry for 25 years and am APPALLED at what it has become. It wasn’t like this until the marketing eclipsed the science.
Magnesium has been a wonderful thing for me. I take 65 mg of Magnesium Oxide daily. Basically a pill cut into 4 pieces. My toes have been numb for years and it spread to the bottoms of my feet. My balance was affected and I had fibromyalgia also. The Magnesium brought peace to my body, my toes and the bottom of my feet woke up. My balance is so much better and the pain in my body is gone.
We all know the money is in the treatment not the cure. And if said treatment isn’t a money maker it’s squashed.
You're so right! Damn shame my mother doesn't listen to me. Well it's not like i didn't try
Don't worry. The UN is going to define the correct diet for all humans on the planet this year. It is already decided this is a plant based, high carb, high omega-6 / seed oil diet. Meat is this year's "global crisis" and it will be soft-banned as of now, then probably banned altogether in a few years. Watch Nina Teicholz' video on this. Quite interesting.
@@dunuth it’s the Great Awakening not the Great Reset ;). Once you begin to see the cracks or holes you will find more and more until you can’t go back inside the matrix anymore.
Please don’t let anyone convince you that there isn’t a cure for fibro, fibro can be treated. I’ve seen about 7 patients including my stepmomma get cured so if you’ve been suffering from chronic pain and fibromyalgia, there is treatment that really works. Contact me if you need help..
Think this is also going on with herniated disc, sciatica, got over it by prolonged,light traction, posting comments get covered up, their money more important than your health apparently
Unfortunately in our society most people are not willing to change their eating habits to improve their health. So sad. Thank you Dr. Berry you are the Greatest.
Right on! Addiction to certain foods and food-like substances ... fear of fasting ... etc. Also burned out from following bad advice ... not being able to discern good advice from bad from lack of common sense, etc.
Have you ever heard of The Conditioned Mind and how it works? It's kind of like if we've been doing something/behaviors for long enough, it becomes damn near impossible to change that behavior. CBT, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, is required to fix it.
Sad but true, my friend.
How our minds can do this should be taught in grade school. That it's not is certainly for the same reasons that research paper was removed. You can't manipulate people who have control of their minds.
Papa F Jose looooooooooove your comment!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@snooky12 well said!!!
My close friend suffered with fibromyalgia for many, many years. She would get med upon med for 2 to 3 years until her body rebelled and she would end up in the emergency room for some random extreme problem. At that time, and after many tests, the emergency doctor would tell her to stop all meds immediately. Slowly over time her regular doctor would again stockpile her meds, until once again she was in emergency. This cycle repeated 3 or 4 times until on her final emergency visit she was told that she had cirrhosis of the liver. Being she had never consumed alcohol (for religious beliefs), she was shocked. The doctor told her that over use of medications could also cause cirrhosis of the liver. He told her to get off meds and stay off meds. This time, she committed to stay off meds. The next day she quit diet coke, started to take short walks, improved her eating and sleeping habits. It took less than 2 years and she considers herself fibromyalgia free. The condition of her liver means she has to take care with her meals. (Which, honestly, has been a blessing.)
Sheesh! Diet coke is full of cancer causing artificial sweetener...god knows what other symptoms precede that.
Had she had milk thistle for liver wonderful drs no what's going on
How she take care with meals? Liver?
@@joanneclark8256She just has to be careful what she eats so her liver doesn't have to work as hard because it was damaged, leading to cirrhosis, from so many medications.
@@tomsale5142Turmeric is also beneficial for liver health. N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) can also help with liver health and inflammation, but it won't reverse cirrhosis of the liver. Both NAC and turmeric have blood thinning effects though, so that is something important to keep in mind for people who take anticoagulants or use a lot of aspirin or similar medications.
My wife started getting fibromyalgia 3 years ago and in March this year it was intolerable. She was in pain all the time. We changed to a Keto diet and she saw improvement within 2 weeks. We have now been doing Keto for 8 months and she has no more pain. She can now even eat some junk carbs again when she feels like it. What has been the most amazing thing is that we actually don't WANT to eat the stuff anymore because we don't enjoy the taste anymore! A little bit every now and again maybe.
I enjoy every single meal and always look forward to my meals. However, we are never hungry anymore and fasts 16-20 hours a day. I used to have to eat 5 times a day. It's liberating to not have to constantly worry about the next meal.
We have both seen multiple health markers improve (9 for me) and not that either of us had much weight problems (my wife gained a bit too much maybe the last year before we started Keto), but so many other things were problematic that we used to blame on 'age'.
I had Vertigo for 5.5 years. Three months on Keto and it was gone!
Hi Johann, do you have a keto plan you follow?
The cure for me was to stop eating gluten.
I had fibromyalgia so bad I was on morphine 3 times a day for 4 years, I finally cutting out processed, sugar, flour, rice, potatoes and lost 200 pounds and have had minimal symptoms for five years!!
Heavens, morphine, have never heard of anyone with fibromyalgia have morphine..didn't think drs would do that.
You were very much overweight.
@@marleneholloway7775 pain hypersensitivity I'd a terrible thing to deal with never judge another person's pain.
@@jackiesicilian5720 i know exactly 💯 what you say about pain. Its that i didn't know that drs would put you on morphine, I'm in Perth Western Australia. Hope you are finally free from pain. I also cut out,those foods but still in extreme pain with no pain medication at all, non worked anyway,.All the best.
My partner suffered from fibro, svt and ibs for years, passing out, unable to keep most food down, fatigue and lethargy, sleep apnoea and more. It was terrifying.
Doctors treated him awfully, called him a hyperchondriac, prescribed peppermint tablets and told him to “just eat more vegetables” as he was somewhat overweight. He was traumatised by all of this, terrified he was dying and nobody cared to help.
It got to such a low point when he said f this and took things into his own hands. He changed his diet himself by paying attention to his body, his inner compass, and following a low-fodmap diet (with some changes of course), he also sought therapy for his trauma, and made great strides in both physical and mental health.
Now after so much hard work and paying close attention to his mind and body, he is able to eat/drink whatever he likes (yet still a majority healthy diet), he is thriving and is so much happier and empowered and confident. I’m so proud of him and so happy to be out of that hell.
There is hope out there, please listen to your body and mind and take care of your self first and foremost ❤️ tune in to your needs and your inner compass, it takes time, but you do have an inner guidance system that is so powerful if you can learn to listen to it and differentiate it from fear responses. And boy does it take practice and a lot of self love, but mine and my partner’s inner compass has pointed us down the right path time and time again, where most doctors have mislead us, doubted us, and fed that fear and self doubt.
Yes, doctors can help with certain ailments, but with these invisible illnesses it becomes a real skill to be able to wade through their “I know better than you because med school” gaslighting gatekeepy bs and stand up for the real pain and suffering you feel inside yourself, and what you know to be real and true.
Thanks @Micky41 😁
@@AB-ws4kt it's really sad how the medical system is these days! I'm sorry your partner had to go through all that but very happy to hear he/she took matters into their own hands and hope for continued health and happiness! 😊✌ ❤
I have a very similar story.. no luck with doctors or specialists and always telling me I was in the wrong specialists office and once I started working with a meditation coach, healing my energy field and changing my diet completely I cured my intractable pain syndrome. For me it was adhesive arachnoiditis however many doctors first told me it was fibro. I also cured my diabetes, pcos, endometriosis, anxiety, depression, ptsd, asthma and every single chronic illness that lived in my body.
It was only when I was so fed up from being led astray from people who pretend to be authority figures that I figured things out myself.
Now I live with zero pain and was also able to conceive naturally - something I’ve been told since I was 15/16 would likely be impossible.
It’s disturbing what is being covered up in order for big ph@rm@ to make profit.
@@allison471 It really is so difficult, my heart goes out to all those struggling to find answers.
Thank you, it has been (and will continue to be) such a wild healing journey together.
All the best to you too 😊✨
@@unboundedindigo7632 wow what an incredibly massive achievement!
It’s so interesting how when one thing “unlocks” the rest tend to follow ✨
So often doctors just treat symptoms and not the cause, and as they turn away from the fundamentals of the human experience when it can’t be explained through science, they stop themselves from treating the cause of the symptoms.
I used to think holistic medicine wasn’t worth my time, but once I realised conventional means were harming more than helping, I began looking into it more.
Not ashamed to say, it’s helped me and my partner both far more in the last year than anything a doctor has done for me in the last 10 years.
Healed trauma, depression/anxiety, and all sorts of medical conditions stemming from them.
I’m so glad to hear you paved your own way to healing too, and that many more seem to be doing the same 💛
Also adding B1 1500 mg for 20 days then 500mg daily helped me. I have had fibromyalgia and CFS for 40 years. Diet alone did not help me but the B1 sure did. Good luck to you all and thank you for finally talking about this horrible disease:) I had to discover and educate all of my doctors 40 years ago when this disease was unknown.
I’m on yr 25 and they still don’t address the issue.

Thank you for sharing. I will try this. I wonder if it will help RA too. I have both ailments as you too. My doctor says I have insulin resistance. I have sugar addiction.
Hi Marie. I have had fibromyalgia for over 35 years. Sometimes I get a little remission in the summer when it’s hot and sunny but living in Seattle it’s mostly chilly and rainy 3/4 of the year. And I think that actually makes it worse. I have just started taking, the fat soluble b1 benfotiamine. Did you spread your dose out over the day or take it all at once? I’m taking 300 in the morning and 300 at night but I don’t think it’s enough. Thanks.
There is a huge correlation between fibro and such illnesses and ptsd. Stress is a huge and contributing factor. Especially childhood...

It’s probably linked to nervous system dysregulation. I’ve been doing nervous system work to heal from complex ptsd and the body will detox pain the body has held onto and fibromyalgia is one of the things my body was detoxing. My functional doctor said my gentetic mutation since I barely found out was probably why I’m more susceptible to it.
@@ritaevergreen7234 What type of nervous system work?
@@Minerbasket Somatic expirencing
100%. Not just trauma - though certainly also trauma - but also patterns of thinking and reacting that make our pain pathways spiral ever higher. Learning to ratchet down my reaction to pain, and my habits of relating to stress, has really given me so much of my life back.
2+ years into my keto/ Ketovore journey and by adding electrolytes, especially magnesium, my fibromyalgia symptoms have improved so much. I no longer depression, migraines or joint pain. Instead, I now am able to work 40+ hours at a physical job that I love. I have lost 65 pounds and I am down to 24% body fat. I am lifting weights and working on building muscle. Something that would have been impossible just a few years ago. To say that Keto saved my life is an understatement.
So you can stay in ketosis indefinitely? I for one would be happy to know this is the case.
@thecinder24 what type of magnesium do you use?
@@dianac2498 I would say on average I have .7 in ketones on the mornings that I test. The longer that you do keto the less excess ketones that your body makes.
@@dianac2498 there is no definitive proof of anything much when it comes to nutrition, but we know of plenty of people who have been on keto for 20+ years. There are people like the Masai who live their whole lives on LCHF. I’ve been on it for 15 months, I’ve lost 82lb and I feel great.

Imagine telling your doctor you have MUSCLE PAIN. Then he orders some expensive tests, asks you to bring back a pain journal in a month, and he says to you in Latin, yes, you definitely have MUSCLE PAIN!
I was diagnosed with it soon after I was prescribed what I call “head meds”. When I took myself off these horrible drugs after several years, all symptoms of fibromyalgia absolutely disappeared! There most certainly is a correlation!
Never a truer word spoken I am a 50 year old male and had fibromyalgia it's no fun I was in such pain I was often in tears swapped my diet to 90% carnivore I do cheat somewhat I'm only a week human no more fibro I try to inform others they mostly just laughed at me they are so brainwashed by what most doctors and dietitians tell them if you do have fibro give carnivore a go please you have nothing to lose and everything to gain taking pills will not help you
And make the f*cking blood work before and after, so that you can proove you are right!
Too many people just continue to blindly trust what their doctor tells them - even when it's not working! "We need to up your dosage!" You need another pill or a different pill! Come back in two months if it's still not working there's plenty of more pills to try! "Don't worry we'll get all your symptom's under control!" Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Amen to that. 30 years of fibromyalgia and meds. Last year I started carnivore for 6 months and it fixed 95% of my problems. I slept a lot the first few months while my body was healing and last summer I was able to get off my meds. Amazing!
What vitamins do you take with a carnivore diet?
@@marge3477 its best to watch as many of the carnivore UA-cam videos and see what they take. I take vitamin d and ancestral supplements, grass fed beef organs and bone marrow. Magnesium. Hope this helps.
My Fibro symptoms have mostly disappeared since going on a low carb way of eating. Even better on a carnivore diet.
Please tell me, what were your symptoms?

I've been doing a combination of ketovore/ carnivore /IF for 4 months. I've been Weightlifting, walking, muscle strengthening exercises, and lost 25 lbs. I feel better than i have in years. I'm working on losing the last 25 lbs. My highest weight i was 300. This is my second disciplined journey on keto/ketovore, etc. Nothing is going to stop me this time.
I admire the courage it takes to reveal the truth. The pharmaceutical dope dealers don't take kindly to those who educate their victims. It's bad for business. More doctors need to do things like this.

Carnivore works because it addresses oxalate toxicity. Look it up.

I was able to reverse mine just about completely. Soon it will all be gone. I believe there are a number of ways that fibromyalgia can occur. I've created a method that looks at DNA (for inflammation genes) and diet and incorporates supplements and other treatments such a nrir light. I can backup my method with research articles as well. Would love to share and see if I can help.

Heavy meds for 16 of those.

Off all meds now.
I see DIRECT relation to sugar/carbs and symptoms.

Felt like I had the flu everyday :( was diagnosed with fibromyalgia- sent me on my health journey dive - trying everything, but magnesium Malate helped me so much!!! Upped my dosage until there was enough in my system.

I am going to stop rhe carbs. I have had pain for so many years. Im 73 now this started in my 30s. Fibromyalgia has effected every part of my life and my childrens life. I was not able to go to their activities or share after work activities because of pain and exhaustion. I DIDNT and dont attend church or senior activities that i would love to go to. I pray for all the young people with FM that a cure will come.
I have suffered with fibromyalgia for at least 35 years. I started eating carnivore in December of 2021. I can happily say my fibromyalgia pain disappeared within a few weeks. And it has stayed gone UNLESS I get weak and eat sugar or grains especially, but also several other veggies. Thank you for letting me know why. I pray that I stay on the straight and narrow road. I'm 62 and also doing intermittent fasting, trying to lose weight, heal my internal organs and just get healthy again.

I had myalgia paresthitica and it went away after keto!
Ive had it for over 20 years and still dealing with it on daily basis. I was on a STRICT gestational diabetes diet due to maternal age and I never ate any sugar or carbs. I followed it religiously because of my child inside. My fibromyalgia never got better! So ive tested this out and it didnt affect my pain level!

80-96% of fibromyalgia patients are women. This information is great! Just amazing that, again, diet is the culprit and the cure.
I put this basic equation together 18 months ago and tried to explain to to my mother in law. Unfortunately some don't want to be told, they don't want to do what is necessary and just want a pill.

There are social and psychological gains when you are sick.
Yep. You can lead a horse to water...
@@melissaculpepper7663 😂 you can make them drink with enough salt.
This is exactly why people would rather stay sick because putting in the work to get better is difficult and to them why would they do that when they can just continue popping pills? It’s sad.
This is absolutely true. I got diagnosed with fibromyalgia and lupus in 83. I’ve been in ketosis for 5 years and it got rid of it and the depression. I’m not taking anything for the lupus either and I had it bad in the kidneys when I was a teenager.
Cured lupus. That is interesting.
I have eaten keto and gone more over to carnivor now to cure my Rosacea, I have type 1, flushing, and it has been much much better after i changed my lifestyle…
So glad to hear you are well now. Thanks for shareing ❤️
I tried doin keto last week but it was too confusing lol
@@Angela-by7qb download an app that shows carbs. I use Chronometer. It's free. 20g of carbs per day, or less, and low oxalate is what I must do.
@@Angela-by7qb I really doesn't have to be, there is a lot of bad advice online, some is well meaning some is just trying to sell you something. Dr Berry above has a keto 101 video if you search his channel and it gives you a nice easy rundown of how to do it. Basically if you stick to meat, dairy, eggs, above ground vegetables, herbs and spices (as long as they have no sugar added) and low carbohydrate fruit (such as berries and avocado) you can't go wrong. If you really need a treat, 70%+ dark chocolate is fine (you may find that doesn't taste sweet now, but once you've been keto for a while it tastes very sweet. If you start looking for all the keto treats, or trying to add huge amounts of fat, or worry about too much protein, or needing to measure this that or the other with expensive strips etc you'll go crazy but non of that is necessary. Also don't feel you have to do it all at once. I started by just making my breakfast keto, when I got used to that and had figured out a few options that worked for me and it had become a habit, I also made my morning snack keto, then lunch etc until I was following an entirely ketogenic diet. It took me about 3 months to become fully keto but by the time I got there it felt normal, it wasn't difficult to follow as I'd done it little by little. I also avoided any side effects that way. It's definitely worth the effort though.
@@Angela-by7qb try carnivore. It's simpler.
Had fibro 10 plus years. In 2012 I had a spinal fusion because my spinal cord was pinched off, and I couldn't use my lower body. A few months after the fusion I noticed I didn't seem to have fibro anymore. I titrated off my meds. 10 yrs now. So far so good. No one has had an explanation.
Another thing people confuse with fibromyalgia is myofascial pain syndrome, I had this for years aswell, but once I was able to reduce my stressors, that pretty much stopped, but I had it for years.
I have suffered from fibro for 33 years. I have been on disability for 24 years. I currently take 19 different prescription medications. My thought has been for many years thought that big pharma has been behind the lack of research in fibro. This article gives me hope that perhaps I can get some type of life back. Thank you Dr. Berry.
Agree with your assessment of big pharma
Follow his advice and get your life back. Also add anaerobic exercise. This means exercise without oxygen like running. Do general stretches, yoga, Tai chi, flexibility exercises and muscle building exercises using your own weight resistance. Find a routine put one together and stick to it. I love her pain is simply because we are not taking care of our body right especially with the stretches and mobility that can always tell a difference the moment I start stretching. Good luck.
NINETEEN?? That's insane! Keto for sure!
19!!?? You’re probably having tons of side effects from all those meds and are given more meds for those side effects.
Go low carb/keto/carnivore dude it won't do any harm and may very well sort you out.
The Dean of my medical school told me how many jobs and profits would be lost if they found cures to some of these diseases and conditions. That was back in the 70s!
My mother has fibromyalgia. She has been taking Magnesium supplements and that alone has resolved 80% of all her symptoms. It all started when she was in agony and was complaining of having a) No energy. b) muscle pain. c) mental fog and being stuck in bed. To me, being young and in sports at the time, it sounded like her muscles were not either healing or getting the nutrients to perform, and that is why they were hurting. We all were eating the same foods, so I knew she should have had plenty of vitamins and proteins to help her muscles. So I did a bit of research on what vitamins / supplements were the best at a) supporting muscles getting the nutrients they need and b) helping muscles heal c) help product energy. Magnesium tackled two of those. At first she didn't think it would help, but I chastised her that she needed to try for a while so that the nutrient levels would have time to build up in here body and in her muscles. Sure enough, she quit hurting so much and became more and more active and returning to her work ethic and hobbies, but she still didnt have all the energy. She takes CoQ10 and Vitamin D and that seems to do the trick. I'd say she's at 95% recovery. If she neglects her supplements or over does it, it will set her back a day (which is normal at her age I think anyways), but certainly not weeks on end being bed ridden anymore.
Did your mom ever take a fluroquinalone antibiotic like Cipro? So much of what you describe sounds like what I’m dealing with.
How old is she
I’m glad to see this. I’m doing healthy keto, IF, and a ton of supplements. Magnesium, Potassium, COQ10, NAC, Vit D, K1 MK7, zinc, benfotamine B1, tocotreinol Vit E. I’ve had a lot of improvement. Plus physical therapy.
What's her food intake ? How old is she?
Magnesium supplements didn't help
This is also true for those who have pain related with hashimoto's. Stopped gluten and pain level and fatigue is significantly less

A MIRACLE
@@glitterglam226 me too no sugar only very occasionally, for over a year no difference, maybe i was still overdoing the carbohydrates
I started have fibro symptoms at a very young age. By the time I was 23 I was in horrible shape. I had never been overweight but had been on a low calorie, low fat, sugar filled diet my whole life. I was diagnosed and given Lyrica. The first 2-4 weeks on lyrica felt like a miracle! I thought I was better. I thought I could finally start living well. Nope........after that point the benefits began to wain and I gained 40lbs in one year on it. I was not binge eating. I was following my same dietary values as before even stricter in fact. I quit that mess. (Which was a whole other bear) So, I have been struggling with pain, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression my whole life. People that were older than me continually told me I was too young to be feeling that bad so thus I wasn't. (😡) I started keto 2 weeks ago after fighting with my 40 lyrica pounds for a few years and my husband having many health complications of his own. (Fatty liver) I started feeling better in 2-3 days. 2 weeks in and I never want to see a carb again. I love carbs but no bread or pasta is worth feeling like that. I hope to be off of antidepressants in the near future now as well.
Dr. Berg recommends Olive leaf extract for fibro, supposed to be very effective plus cardio benefits.
Fibro is caused by a candida yeast over growth in the digestive system. They live off sugar that is why keto removes the yeast food source. U need to take apple cider vinegar to aid in killing out the yeast. Add fermented vegetables like saurkraut to your diet. GL
@@bluesky7704I would def believe that as I had recurring yeast infections prior to keto. (Sorry for the tmi) I haven't had a one since starting. I do use ACV some but not every day.. I am a year in on keto now and have never felt better. I've lost 45lbs and I am in fact off all meds. I feel better mentally now with keto and no meds than I did with the meds. I have a normal iron level for the first time in my life and no anxiety attacks anymore. My husband has nearly reversed all of his health problems and we're both way better off because of Dr.B's advice. I have found that seed oils make me achy and sugar makes me tired and sluggish.

My Fibro & CFS is managed by me with Reiki, rest and watching my diet. Im a vegetarian striving to be vegan and since 2018, I've lost 4.5 stone. The weight loss was triggered by a pre diabetes diagnosis, which I reversed in 6 months by change of diet. I've never used medication for these conditions.
I would assess my Fibro/CFS conditions as well managed not reversed. Thank you 🙏 glad ive found your channel 😊
Dear doctor, I discovered your channel during the plandemic. I have to thank you and others like you for doing an amazing job in enlightened us. I also want to share my findings in the hope of helping others, too. I discovered autophagy. I started doing 24, 48, 72 hour and saw immense benefits. Not only I lost the belly fat , all my pains disappeared. I cleaned up my diet including stop being vegetarian. The fog is lifted. I have 2 red meat , I poultry, 3 legumes and I day of fasting. The use of oregano oil drop in my water, apple cider helped my craving. Getting regular blood test to check my vitamin level and top them up accordingly.
Thanks
Nice Rozi
What vitamins who checks that what about minerals ?
@@joanneclark8256 Hi there , I go to an endocrinologist to have my blood tests done. He checks for all the vitamins, hormones, kidney, liver, thyroid, glucose , cholesterol and others.
You just explained 20 years of my life. Can not believe how much my life has changed just by what i eat. High cortisol was another major contributor to fibromyalgia for me
Interesting...I was recently Finally diagnosed Fibro and osteoarthritis, stenosis, etc.. and high cortisol. this is firs time I've seen the connection
Intermittent fasting and low carb diet has significantly improved my fb symptoms. I feel like a whole new person.
Strangely I have very low cortisol which contribute drastically to my pain ect
I have high cortisol. It may be lower now since I’m low carb. It eat more fat and I’m not as hungry and not constipated. I eat bananas and tangerines, eggs, and pork
High cortisol started my 11 year old hell of chronic pain.
I've suffered hell with fibromyalgia for 10 plus years. I am not overweight, have remarkable blood sugar tests so I'm told. I had a neck injury that may or may not have contributed to it over 10 years ago.
Thank you so much for caring and being so dedicated to finding solutions. We need more doctors like you in this world.
You have true passion for your work. Its so refreshing to hear a Dr using their gifts to uplift people and empower them instead of draining their financial resources and offering little in return as so many Drs today have lost their humanity.
After 25 years of suffering with Fibromyalgia I discovered last year that my pain was so much less eating Keto. Wish I had known sooner. What a waste of years of my life.
My daughter and I suffer fibromyalgia, thank you I wondered why my pain diminished when I went KETO and why the pain reappeared when I fell off. HOLY MOLY who knew, will share this with my daughter tomorrow.
I had fibro for 5 years. I remember the day I suddenly got the symptoms and the day it suddenly stopped. My symptoms were, daily headache, back ache, flu like symptoms really, eyes ached just to move them around, depression, extreme fatigue like you've never known before, I had to pull myself up with the railing while walking up stairs. I didn't want to do life anymore cause i felt so aweful. you can't see fibro so most people don't understand fibro cuz you can't physically see it like on an xray. It's kind of a mystery disease and that was very frustrating!! I finally figured out why I had it after 5 years. I was from Emotional trauma from 25 years ago when I was 15. I had not dealt with something for 25 yrs. After 25 years, it really started to bother me emotionally. I let myself be extremely depressed over it and focused on it so much that the emotional trauma of just thinking about it finally caused my body to have physical pain. I Finally dealt with it and it immediately lifted off of me. I actually felt the weight I was carrying, lift off of me. If I would have known being depressed about something specific was going to cause me to have that kind of pain, I would have forced myself to not constantly think about what I hadn't dealt with and just accepted my life as it was. I should have trusted God knew what was best for me but I had to find out for myself. I wouldn't have got fibro if I would have just trusted God. I felt the symptoms of fibro start when I was thinking about something that had bothered me for years. I didn't know at the time that my thinking was what caused my symptoms. Incredible!!!! That's why the Bible talks about whatever is good, think only on these things. Our thoughts have a huge huge impact on how we feel. You're negative, depressive thoughts can actually cause physical pain in your body. Knowing that is huge!!!! The mind and body connection is Incredible. I learned so much through my experience I suppose so I can help others figure out why they have fibro. Maybe not everyone gets fibro because of their negative, depressive thoughts, but that is one reason why you get diagnosed with it.. If you have fibro, please search yourself to see if you have any past hurt in your life. Then deal with it. Do what you need to do to take care of it, then see how you feel afterwards. And, or, save yourself some heartheache and just trust God in how youre life turns out. Everyone's situation is different. I just hope this helps someone. I did try eating better, detox, cleanses, nothing helped me except for dealing with my issue I had. GOD BLESS.
Another important piece of the puzzle: the psychological complexities. It involves the entire body, mind, and spirit. You cannot recover unless you acknowledge the part each aspect has in healing the whole.🙏
@@smasome you are so right. I agree with you 1000%.
This is so true. I suffer for decades until I found you and your counterparts.
I completely agree ! have suffered significantly with Trigeminal Neuralgia after 3 years of agony, awfully debilitating pain and even worse side effects from carbamazepine topiramate & gabapentin prescriptions - None of which decreased my nerve pain & am off ALL of them now - I have found Keto and within the last 3 months my life is back! Please please share this info with anyone you know who has neuralgia
I have Trigeminal Neuralgia, and had Gamma knife surgery 2 years ago. It's back, and I'm back up to 2400mg of gabapentin. I'm doing keto, using pureed soup to get my nutrients, and will be drinking lots of bone broth. Good thing I've been drinking the BPC for awhile, because there are days that coffee or tea is all I can stomach. I can't even open my mouth now for more than a straw. 😩

Unless, and until the U.S. stops allowing PHARMA to advertize directly to consumers there is no possibility of solving this problem.
Big Pharma are main sponsors of medical schools. Makes so much sense why most doctors don’t prescribe anything other than pills! Dr Berry excluded
UK bans it which is why I was born away when I came to America in mid 2000's and all I could see advertised was drugs. It was so alien to me but you guys have been brainwashed
What in the world are you talking about. What about the food industry? That’s where you have to start. The food is the cure and the food is also the poison.
I respect you more than any other Doc on UA-cam. And I watch them all.
Ha! Well, this is an interesting coincidence. Since adopting a modified Keto diet (low carb) my wife has noticed that her Fibro symptoms are less and when she eats too much sugar, it's worse. Magnesium is also helpful, many people have said such and she finds it helps and it keeps her regular, which is harder as you age, especially for women. Studies show they not only digest slower than men, but get constipated more often too. Fibro also seems to affect women more than men too. So get your mag. ladies and make sure you get enough water, as that's how mag keeps you regular, by drawing water into the intestines. Hence milk of magnesia, as a laxative.
Epsom salt baths are great for Fibro pain for the same reason, magnesium sulfate. This has been a common thing discussed in Fibro forums and they all agree, including her, that mag. supplementation, is a game changer. And it helps your bones and more, so......And oh, fun fact it is now proven that magnesium is protective against lung Cancer.
Plagued by fibromyalgia for the past 10 years until on a proper human diet for 2 weeks. Keto is my new and improved lifestyle for good. Symptoms gone; blind “study” of 1. So much truth in your efforts to inform. ❤️ Thank you

You rock Dr Berry! Thank you for this! I’m passing it onto a friend who has suffered with fibromyalgia for many years.
Most physicians I have come across roll their eyes(like no such thing) if I suggest my overwhelming exhaustion and joint pain could be fibromyalgia
Go get a second opinion. There are some informed Doctor's out there.
Yep! I worked with those doctors. What they said in the back office about the patients was even worse. In their minds, it is all in women's heads. They even said we complain just to get attention
See a good Rheumatologist and Physiatrist...
@@live_troublemaker You tell those types of people that it is in your head...just not the way they are saying. That you are well aware that pain signals are processed in the brain and that's when we become aware of the pain.
I remember life before fibromyalgia & it was great. Medical professionals who deny that fibromyalgia is a truly painful disorder that isn't the sufferer's "imagination" need to pray that they won't be affected. I know if I was going to imagine something about myself it sure wouldn't be something painful! Maybe imagining I was younger, wealthier, or could eat whatever I want without dieting would be more up my alley. Lol
Stress response plays a huge part, but the docs are getting so shallow they just look things up on a computer and guess sometimes. Same with shallow uninterested teachers, govt workers, all kinds of professions are just out for their salary and not invested in their mission.
Dr Berry, I respect you a great deal. I’ve had all the tests for a1c and fasting glucose, etc(many more tests over the yrs too, never been pre diabetic). Wish it was as simple as changing my diet for me. I am a patient at UNC Chapel Hill and see Rheumatology and Neurology. Keto and even carnivore did not “cure” me. I have done all the supplements for over 2 yrs now. I’ve followed your advice since 2017, and listen to you and Neisha too. I take high doses of magnesium, melatonin, vitamin D3 and K2 and C, have for a least 2 of the 3 yrs keto(like I mentioned before, have also lost 72 lbs)While I have gotten tremendous relief, and thankful for so many who get their cure all, I did not get my cure all. Still grateful for the improvements over past 3 yrs. It’s just very hurtful for many who have still suffered pain like I have for over 16 or more yrs to come on here and read others calling it a fake or bogus disease, when I live it and have seen many specialists. It’s very inconsiderate to those who live it and do not get their full cure all. I haven’t taken drugs for Fibro for over 14 yrs, because they did not help and caused other side effects, but my chronic pain is a reality that I live with every single day. I will still watch, learn, and keep staying on it. It’s certainly helped more than anything else. People need to be respectful for what they do not know or live themselves and every one is different. I agree with you on many points Dr Berry, but it isn’t a cure all for everyone who truly has fibromyalgia, and especially from neurological and central nervous system issues like mine was diagnosed. I do appreciate your care and help though. Thank you Dr Berry and Neisha.
Keep searching, never give up and keep going.
The answers are out there and within your body.
The longest 72 hour fasts also play a big role in reversing fibro. Did you only do keto/ carnivore or are you also doing IF? Try playing around with a 72 hour fast and see what effect that has for you. This is a long and arduous battle, but you will prevail. Don't give up!
Same here..and now it's in my legs
@@The_Joy_Finder Yes, agreed. Many years of damage isn’t always a quick fix for some of us. And yes, I do regularly IF every day at least 16-18 hrs, and also fasted for days at times since 2017. I’ve also done complete carnivore for months(I follow Makayla Peterson too. I just came off of a 21 day fast. I’ve definitely seen improvements these past yrs since I began in Sept 2017, it just hasn’t been a cure all for my all over pain. I try to stay positive. I feel many people call food issues Fibromyalgia, when it really isn’t always food issues for all Fibro sufferers. It isn’t that cut and dry for Fibroymyalgia. Sometimes every illness isn’t a quick fix with a magic pill/bullet/diet, so to speak. Diet certainly is key to helping though, and I do believe that! I am happy for those who have gotten their complete cure, but some out there still haven’t, and we should always have compassion and empathy and a curiosity for staying open to learning for what illnesses any of us do not fully understand. There are MANY theories out there about fibromyalgia and even the specialists who deal with it regularly do not have the complete answers. Just like some cancers, not everything is a cure all for all. Everyone is different. I’m not looking for anyone to fix me, or feel sorry for me, only sharing my truth and reality. I’ve been working Dr Westman, Dr Berry, Neisha and Kristie Sullivan’s program since 2017 very seriously follow them and take their advice. They have helped me so much these past yrs. I am continuing on, and won’t give up. Thank you for your kind response.
@@jenn_jean_kent_artist I agree. I have a dear friend who also struggles with FM. Sometimes it is not so clear cut. Compassion is very important. I hope your complete cure knocks on your door soon.
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia some 30 years ago. I discovered that the pain disappeared when I stopped drinking coffee and black tea. My doctor didn’t believe me, he actually mocked me. But who cares, I had found the solution, and 30 years of testing has proved me SO right.
What? Really? Have you made any other changes in your diet , medication , sleep etc?

@@biaberg3448 Which foods have high histamine? Sorry for questions. Just trying to learn 🤓
I had Fibromyalgia, Lupus SLE for 20 years and developed IBS, high bp, high cholesterol, pancytopinia, severe joint pain and disintegration to where I have a replaced hip and both knees replaced. I had inflammation of the lining of my heart and stage 3 kidney disease. I also had pre-diabetes, diverticulitis , colitis and IBS. I started a keto lifestyle five years ago now and have lost about 100 pounds and Lupus and Fibromyalgia is in complete remission and all the other problems have resolved. I was taking eight prescription meds and now I’m taking none. I feel better than I have in 20 years. I am also 76 years old today. Best thing I ever did for myself!
I have also shred this with many friends who were amazed. Some had Fibro and some had Lupus and one had Rheumatoid arthritis but although they were amazed at my results they don’t want to do keto because they have to give up bread, pasta and sugar. Very sad.
My mom, 73 , has severe IBS with Fibro & OA Knee. Please opine.
This is Mary on Richard's phone in Florida. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 1980 and was told that it was due to unrelenting stress and also possibly because my mother also was juvenile diabetic and had rheumatoid arthritis very badly. I saw a couple who are chiropractors who did allergy testing on me and sensitivity using the muscle testing procedure I eliminated all the foods I was sensitive to as well as they told me to go low carb I was doing fabulous until my husband took ill and I started hitting the ice cream tub and it triggered everything I finally licked that addition and I started out with intermittent fasting and have lost 65 lb also not going out and eating out three times a day with my husband helped tremendously so right after he passed away in 2017 I quit eating processed food and intermittent fasting now the pounds are coming off I've gone from 213 to now 147. I have tried keto a full few times and I keep getting sick and it's not keto flu my sodium level drops even though I am in taking at every opportunity I was just diagnosed with hashimoto's so I'm about to begin that war.
I found it was wheat consumption and low iodine. Give that a try, along with magnesium supplements.
If you get the benefits you're after with low processed food (which will be much lower carb than a standard diet) and then intermittent fasting then that's great, there is no need to go keto if that makes things difficult for you. It's about getting the best outcome for you. Good look sorting your hashimoto's.
Electrolytes daily
Salt
Potassium (eat plenty of fibrous, esp leafy, vegetables)
Magnesium capsules (NOT oxide) at bedtime
Salt ur water, salt ur food liberally
NuSalt or NoSalt from grocery store for potassium
Please watch Dr Berg on UA-cam. He explains key and IF thoroughly and in layman’s terms. Don’t give up on keto!!!
Hashimoto's causes low sodium. In fact it's the low sodium that can kill you if Hashimoto's is not treated. My mother died from hypothyroid hyponatremia coma. Once you're treated try keto or carnivore again. Make sure your doctor also monitors free T3 not just TSH.
I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, I had many other symptoms and finally 15 years later I was diagnosed with late stage lyme disease and multiple co-infections. I will say the ketovore diet has been a tremendous help in alleviating symptoms and I thank you Dr. Berry from the bottom of my heart. God bless.
Please don’t let anyone convince you that there isn’t a cure for fibro, fibro can be treated. I’ve seen about 7 patients including my stepmomma get cured so if you’ve been suffering from chronic pain and fibromyalgia, there is treatment that really works. Contact me if you need help....
I'm so happy to hear this. I have the fi ro and lymes combination too.
@@auroracasteel7561 - Me too....FM and late-stage Lyme. Unfortunately, I also have exocrine pancreatic insufficiency aka EPI, so I have to take prescription enzymes to be able to eat anything at all, and can't eat much fat even with the enzymes, making keto impossible. I've been on Paleo for over 2 yrs. but it hasn't helped my FM and has emptied my wallet.
Fibromyalgia destroyed my life, the pain and fatigue coupled with depression has nearly overwhelmed me. I intend to try this carnivore diet, probably my last chance. Thanks for giving me a little hope.
Love the straightforward approach he has!
Recently diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. Many in my family with it also. Definitely listening ❤️
I was diagnosed with fibro at 13 years old. I was an athlete, with a BMI around 12%. I find it hard to believe that at that point in my life I had insulin resistance. However, 20+ years later I could see that being the case now. Unfortunately, I also have chronic lymes disease.
I loved reading the comments on this video, it gives me hope. I have been wanting to start dieting etc, this just pushes me to do it.
I have seen people cued of Lyme. Don't give up
I heard it comes after severe physical and/or emotional trauma. That was true for me. But the trauma also made me self medicate with food, so it still went hand in hand. I hope you are much better today 🤍
My sister had fibromyalgia and is not insulin resistant. She has been checked and is under 5 fasting insulin
Both fibro and lyme here also. Insulin of 5, and A1C of 5.3 for a long time. On the Paleo diet for years. NO improvement. Studied Naturopathy and have tried everything. There are some things that help a lot, like Mg, but I have not been cured by any means. Imo, curing the alpha-delta sleep disorder is key.
Young athletes rely on exercise to "burn off extra calories" so everyone justifies the stupid sugary sports drinks & potato chips/candy they consume often. Unfortunately that's far from how the body works. I'm sure I was insulin resistant from early on, and that's also something able to be inherited from Mom's indulgences in womb
Wow. Thank you so much. I had been searching for an answer for a while and will put this information into practice for myself
God bless you for sharing your knowledge!
I live alone so I need to start educating myself to care for myself .
Your videos help me do that .
I realize how much time you spend to research and study to bring us these concise and accurate clips of information that would take us weeks to navigate.
Thank you.
"proper human diet" - recommending dead, inflammatory animals, and saying no to fruit, which is THE main food for humans.
However, happy that you mentioned insulin resistance, which of course is a contributing factor, for some.
But things aren't just that materialistic, Ken.
There are energetics, trauma, and things beyond your/most people's comprehension involved in fibro and other "chronic" illnesses.
Agreed
I was seeing an elderly neurologist who decided I was suffering from cerebral palsy although I had a normal childhood with no physical disability.( I had previously been seen by a rheumatologist who did diagnose fibromyalgia.) The elderly:"old school" neuro doc maintained that "fibromyalgia" was just a catchall term for "I dont know why you ache all the time".
I know people who are diabetic who have NO "fibro myalgia" issues. I also know people who have fibromyalgia who have normal blood sugars and normal a1c.
There is still currently several doctors in local hospitals that think and have essentially said so that fibromyalgia is just neurological mental disorder since pain is hard to impossible to test and prove person feels pain. Thankfully i was able to get to specialist on young age, not that it has done much, but least i understand per say what is causing this. Now that there is this study even if retracted its least indication to what is causing all this.
I have just came to this conclusion after trying the keto diet, had signs of fibro since I was 7 now 62, low on magnesium vit d3 now iron, now have low thyroid condition last 30 yrs. Reducing carbo has helped a great deal. Thank you for all your help love watching your videos.
Well done for speaking out; for bringing this information to the people. Never fear stating the truth and sharing information that mankind can benefit from. Thank you
My wife and sister have fibromyalgia, they're completely hopeless and they're doctors have no idea what to do with them 🤷♂️
That’s because they (doctors) are married intimately to BIG PHARMA.
Share the video w/them
I'm with CFS.Hope we CAN get this😓 and hope this can help us. Good luck!!!
See "Crime of the Century" a 4-hour documentary about the opioid crisis [on HBO]. So much worse than we've been told.
Get their stress levels down
There was a beautiful lady that killed herself on the RR tracks very near my house about 3 am. I found out she had been to a pain clinic in Arizona from some of her fellow sufferers who left condolences on her obituary. So sad.
Sad 😔
You are so spot on!
And thankfully knowledge got me out of the pit.
Research is key to understanding these big companies.
Can confirm my debilitating fm is gone after 15 years of suffering severe symptoms when I switched to a paleo diet. I also take magnisium glyconate and drink plenty of water. I sometimes cheat and eat gluten free breads but feel very energetically depleted when I stray from clean healthy eating. Thank you for sharing this information. I don’t have a medical background so my advice I have given to others have fallen on deaf ears. This gives my suggestions validity. Cheers!
I can testify 🙋♀️💜 As long as I stay on track my fibro pain stays away! I tell friends and family who have it they should at least try keto but they don't believe me.
They would rather not know. I tried to get my mother to swim a little, take vitamin C and use a hot tub. Even that little change was too much. I get very little support re keto diet. I'm just doing what I can. Wheat and sugar are murder for me.
What about vegetarians?
Doing tons of detoxification completely removed fibro symptoms for me- infrared sauna, colonics, coffee enemas, liver cleanse, oral chelation, etc... Fibro is caused by inflammation & sometimes toxins are the cause of that but keto/carnivore diet can definitely make symptoms enough to feel well enough to detox
Fibro IS inflammation
Any other tips?
Did you buy your own suana and if so,where did you get it?
Thank you for the feedback. What type of liver cleanse and oral chelation did you use? Also, how long did it take for you to experience relief?
@@AMTSA1 i have heard from other experts that it is not caused by inflammation..so many theories 😳
This makes sense. I was diagnosed with fibro when I was 27 but realised I had been suffering with it my whole life. I had already switched to healthy eating when I was 20yrs old thankfully and this definitely mitigated it's effects.
Years ago (in my 20's) I had corrected my diet because I am a person with hypoglycemia. I learned to eat a low carb diet. It didn't fix the fibromyalgia and I lived with the chronic fatigue and pain level of 5 to 7 daily but determined enough to continue my goals. I continued on despite bouts of depression. I am the "Queen of Compensation ". My problem, it turned out was loss of magnesium. I have a rare B12 , mineral loss genetic illness (under stress I throw into my urine several minerals and the B12; still a mystery as to why). When a RNNP who specializes gut minerals met me in 2012 and did a history on me she determined what minerals was severely depleted. I had a goiter (determined by ultrasound) not seen because it grew into my throat space. This was how low the iodine was. She did extensive testing on several minerals. Magnesium was low but iodine was nearly non existent. There are several other minerals low but these two were the worst. Recommended various chelated forms of magnesium. That was life changing. My pain levels were 1 to 3. Since 4 yo I never felt better. Unfortunately, I had acquired several head injuries (the last being bacterial meningitis with 2 strokes) and this is the cause of Organic Brain syndrome. OBS causes chronic fatigue too. So diet & mineral regulation does not fix chronic sleepy. But I now know increase pain is decreased minerals and they are replaceable. No pain meds necessary.
I also found out myself, by research and symptom relief, that I need magnesium, among many other minerals and vitamins. It's my own self diagnosis that I do not absorb properly and need to ingest extra to get enough. But I also have long-standing Lyme, or post Lyme syndrome, who knows. Anyway, my pain doesn't get better from supplements, but many of my other symptoms are relieved.
You need Todo water fast. It'll fix ur head
How is your hypoglycemia now?
So what is your diet now? 😃
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!! 👌👌
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia many years ago and it was so bad that I was on very heavy medication to control symptoms. Well I also had other symptoms that the doctor just scratched his head and I went to see another doctor, one just like you.... More educated in the field of health rather than just writing a prescription👍. He said he wanted me to do a candida cleanse for 30 days, NOT eating carbs or sugar. I did just that and OMG can I just tell you the whole world opened up to me. My fibromyalgia totally disappeared as well as depression, anxiety, and a whole host of other symptoms. I no longer needed any kind of medication and no longer had pain. So yes! Them blood sugars will mess you up good. Naturally I didn't stay on that diet forever and with much regret. However, I go back to it often and now I'm just doing carnivore. That being said I've never needed hardcore pain meds since that diet. I keep things in check and take loads of oregano because that seriously keeps fibromyalgia in check and has for me for many years. Love your videos👍😊
I asked my doctor and they literally told me not to stress too much. But the pain is really real and no one believed me 😔
Praying for your healing Gena cat in Jesus Name, Amen.
I most likely have fibro and I bloody love you for this channel!
This is HUGE! Thank you!!
