Brilliant. I'd never have linked SIBO and fatigue to low stomach acid. Thank you, Dr Berg. Looking forward to the day when your telephone consultancy becomes global.
This makes so much sense. I've been dealing with chronic fatigue and anemia for much of my life and I have hashimoto's, but this is the first time that I've ever heard that it's all related to low stomach acid. I was also prescribed and antacid a long time ago, which now I can see only exacerbated the situation. Thank you, I feel like I've been given a early Christmas gift!!
I had lots of health issues, thyroiditis, anemia, hair falling out, narcolepsy and a rare kidney surgery (only 300 reported worldwide) Survival rate is 5 years and I am in my 8th year. So I only have 1 kidney but am healed. I take 0 medications. Here's how... I fasted for a week with mineral and Vit B infused bone broth, and 2 avacados a day. Then went raw food, 70% plant based, keto diet (keeping all carbs at 20grams daily for the first year) with fresh green juice daily. ONLY ORGANIC. *Grocery store foods are POISONED with carrageenan that causes arthritis, anti-freeze is in your ice cream, MSG is a neuroTOXIN.

Use a super filter!...I don't even need glasses anymore because my eyes healed to 20/20 vision and my skin is beautiful for the first time in my life...@ 58 yrs old! Wrinkles disappear. I want to thank DR BERG for all his wonderful videos. Oh, and Covid 19 can only attach to an aminopeptidase, ACE2 receptor (these are active when your body has been abused with sugar),,, so back up, put the donut down and nobody will get hurt... lol
I've fasted for 10 yrs now. I still am balancing my body on and off. I'm 53 now and people are saying that I'm pretty. Except my crooked teeth lol. I mostly feel good except for if I slide off the clean diet. As I go a level deeper I work through my health issues and spread the word about it. I still haven't taken any medications. The hardest part is watching other people be sick.
I have been taking apple cider vinegar for a couple of years after taking capsules with HCL for several years and it seems to help with the stomach acid issue.
Amazing Philippines ....Are you taking both things at once or are you just taking the apple cider vinegar now. I just want to know which option might be best for me, I'm lactose intolerant and I've just started taking the apple cider and lemon juice mixed with warm water, that and cutting down on the amount of carbs I eat does seem to be helping my digestive problems to a degree. It's been better than it was anyway but I still have very low energy levels so I'd like to know if there's anything else I can try to help heal my gut. Also do you know if the HCL tablets or capsules have lactose in them ?, ..... because many tablets do contain lactose.

@@julivictoria4501 It won't if you are willing to do some work. I started with providing my body plenty of minerals through foot soaks - Epsom Salts, sea salt and vinegar. Soak once a day if you can. Getting minerals into the body is important and I find using the skin to absorb minerals is much faster and easier than taking supplements. I then started building up missing nutrients through supplements and better food choices. I did intermittent fasting and dirty keto. I switched to lots of healthy fats - lard, butter, avocado, nuts, seeds, etc. Then I worked on my hormones. That was a game changer once my body was healthy. For me GABA, Choline, and inositol have been amazing at balancing my hormones. Dr. Berg has videos on all these topics. It took two years but I am far healthier now than I was in my youth. Pay attention to your body and work with it. This worked even with my 90 yo parents so it is never too late to regain your health. Blessings.
Recently cottage cheese before and after meals has energized me. My bowl movements are regular, normal, and easier to eliminate when a bm is needed I can credit small curd cottage cheese for feeling better
With fatigue, you have unexplained, persistent, and relapsing exhaustion. It's similar to how you feel when you have the flu or have missed a lot of sleep. If you have chronic fatigue, or systemic exertion intolerance disease, you may wake in the morning feeling as though you've not slept.👍
@KAH Z You could have a hidden infection. If supplements make you feel worse, is it possible that when you take them, the pathogen is feeding off them? Have you tried intermittent fasting? That might help weaken any pathogens and strengthen your immune system to fight off the infection. Check out Dr. Berg's videos and see if they help. I "had" Hashimoto's but I knew it was related to trip to SE Asia and I suspected an infection all along. Blood tests were normal but my body wasn't feeling normal. I went with thyroid hormones for years and finally decided to tackle it on my own. Lots of research and supplements followed, with some relief. Intermittent fasting seemed to be the key for me along with reducing sugar. I hope you find a solution. Blessings.

*🙂 My fatigue comes from my Rheumatoid Arthritis, Fibromyalgia and Menopause in my entire body and I’m 50 years old.😔 I feel like an old lady who need’s a new body! ☺️*
I know the feeling all too well. I went 7 years with RA being told I had fibro. Doc never believed something was seriuosly wrong, I had palendromic arthritis and RA. I fired his sorry butt...
I've had RA for 26 years please keep changing rheumatologist until you find one that puts you on a biological like Remicade. Also do daily cardio exercise as you can. I went from not being able to walk to running 6 miles.
Yes ! I Read a book by Dr. Jerry Tennent, “HEALING IS VOLTAGE “an ophthalmologist, who said what stomach acid is made from & I now take those supplements along with the betaine before meals . I no longer need my esophagus stretched every 3 years & don’t need to worry about developing Barrett’s disease. A fascinating read ! So much to learn !
Nancy Kaufman, The book is interesting and makes a lot of sense since we are so isolated from the Earth now. I have grounding pads for my indoor cats. They love them. And I ground lot as well. A simple solution that we should teach others. Blessings.
@@thisorthat7626 I ordered grounding mats for our master bedroom along with pillowcases and throw blanket. Also bought tummy band, foot mat, and patches. The pet bed is currently out of stock. Hope it works. Would love to hear back from you.
@@ktortora611 You have it covered! I just use one pad for my cats (they share) and made a wrist band grounding strap for me when I need something extra. The throw blankets will work if your cats like to cuddle. (I am surrounded by cats right now, LOL). The pillowcases should be pretty nice. It will be very interesting to see how quickly you notice a difference. Congratulations for taking your health into your hands!!
it is really important to mention that many people confuse TMG Betaine with Betaine HCL. They are two completely different things and are used for different issues. Please be sure you are buying Betaine HCL!!!!
I have been on ppi sumac for 5 years and iam of the opinion that this is reducing my stomach acid and effecting the efficient digestion of my food and creating my loss of energy
These are my symptoms. Belching, gaz, urq pain. Did exam no sign of stones in gallbladder, liver is fine.. I started taking your gallbladder pills and I also ordered Betaine yesterday. . Thank you, so much.
It seems counterintuitive but when fatigued muscle through an exercise unless you are diseased in specific way that calls for rest. Also try different diets. With that said, it’s a battle either way.
Every morning apple cider vinegar does the same thing I suppose, and feels more natural to me. But the point is taken, enough acid is necessary for good functioning!
For me at 65 , it is trying to keep with 4 Grandchildren ( that all live a 1/2 mile away ) from 5 to 16 years of age ! They are involved in so me activities that I feel like an unpaid Uber Diver , not so much as a Tip !
I was drinking just coffee and carbonated beverages and was not drinking water. And it took days to digest a meal.i was always feeling full and bloated.
I'm fatigued all the time plus I have a dizziness issue. I have gerd so I take 20mg of Omeprazole daily but if I don't take it I start to be in big discomfort. Plus I have other health issues and insomnia.
I used to get dizzy when I stood up, often. But Dr. Berg in one video suggested that was low potassium so I started taking his electrolyte drink with 1000mg potassium and it hasn't come back even though I'm not regular with it. I think it depends on the type of dizziness though, years ago I was aenemic and that made me dizzy for sure, all day every day, iron infusion and supplements really helped me back then. I hope you find the right solution 🤞
My mate and I had luck with the celery juice fad, actually. But the high nitrogen in grocery store celery triggers my migraine. But I was on the road to better digestion. My magnesium intake will always be key. We have citrus trees and my best remedy for digestive crashes now is eating an unripe kumquat or the zest from my lemons and limes. Commercial enzyme products trigger my migraine. Vinegar of any kind is migraine hell for me.
L Glutamine!! Lets talk about that and leaky gut.... low stomach acid goes hand in hand!! One common symptom of CFIDS which is really a form of leaky gut is feeling ok for a short period of time after eating.
Do you think L glutamin helps for those who have intestinal permaability(aka: Leaky gut)? How much would you take or did you take? As I remember dr Berg recommends 10g on empty stomach.
@@futureflow8645 I have been self medicating with LG for the past three months and it has been helping to heal my leaky gut and IBS symptoms. Its amazing. I started with 40 gm per day split into 3 doses the biggest dose i wake up at 5am to take then go back to sleep as it gives it time to absorb. I also take zinc carnatine, and I make meat broth with pig feet to get the gelatin and add it to soups and stews and drink it neat. I drink Kefir with my food too. the L glutamine and the gelatin are the most important though. Good luck
Low salt intake = GERD. Stomach acid is hydrochloric acid with pH of 1-1.2 very acidic. When pH rises that's when GERD occurs not the other way around. We require plenty of chlorine daily intake of sodium chloride (salt). Eat salt don't take antacids or PPI drugs these only provide temporarily relief like with almost every other drug
Im 68, when I take apple cider vinegar before meal, I have a reflux all day long. Am I low or over on hydrochloric acid ? I have chronic gastritis too. Thank you
Hello doc, My Mum has chronic iron deficiency anaemia and takes iron supplementation. If she does not take the supplement her hematocrit drops very sharply and she has a blood transfusion. She also has a very large hiatus hernia and baret's syndrome. Is it possible that the large hiatus hernia is to blame for the anemia? She has never had a hydrochloric acid test either.
Good Morning Dr Berg 🌞 Thank you so very much for sharing this information with everyone , Have a great day , May God continue to bless you all ! 11/10/2020
It is so "life-altering", in the very best of ways, when we have a Dr. who actually explains "how our bodies work"!!!!!! ❤ 😊...Dr. Berg you are a true 'lover of mankind "! God bless you abundantly now and forever.......
Dr.berg I've been suffering with chronic fatigue for 10years now I'm drained all the time don't know what to do and yes i suffer from gastritis please help don't know what to do thank you respect from London God bless you 👍🕊🌹💥
Thanks great video as always !I have low energy and have had tests done no anemia my hormones are fine . Is there a specific test for low stomach acid ?
Since i hit 55 a month ago, I have been sleepy at work, i do sleep my hours 7 8 and 9 hours and i eat well but i have been very tire, i bought the pills, lets see what will happen, thank you
I just started taking Methyl B-12/Methyl Folate and Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P) Lozenges to help with fatigue. I'm hoping it helps. I was in a bike accident 20 years ago where I went head first through the rear window of a parked car and ended up in the front seat. I broke my neck, shoulder, ribs, missing muscle mass but by the grace of God I made a full recovery. Now at 52 I'm finding myself getting tired after an easy day at work. I have health insurance but I don't trust the doctors to help me as the last time I went to the doctor he told me I needed a new pillow. He didn't bother to x-ray my neck or back.
@AnetaPietka. I can only tell you what I personally takes or my situation. Don’t know your personal situation. I take 1 Gallbladder capsule just before my first bite. I take a second gallbladder formula between halfway through my meal and towards the end of the meal. I do this for each meal that I eat. Take 1 or none for small snacks, depending on what it is. I personally also have to take Beano just before eating, along with this.
I'm knackered most of the time. Constantly need sleep because I don't sleep well. Pre diabetic doesn't help. I think I'll die within the next twenty years.
I have CFIDS and Fibromyalgia for over 20 years. Nothing has helped including keto, nutritional yeast and everything you recommend. I am 64 and have had these conditions as well as spasmodic torticollis. Its hard to lose weight and excercise with these conditions. Incredible fatigue. Have been taking ACV for awhile. I have great digestion. I am not anemic and have otherwise good health. I will persist with all your advice but am cautiosly optimistic.
I'm almost 70 and I walk a lot but I am constantly tired and it's pathetic I'm so drained and I wake up in the middle of the night and I can't get back to sleep and I don't have afternoon naps cuz my brain won't shut down and I had a car accident 2 years ago and I broke my collarbone and I had a concussion and since then I noticed I've been extremely tired I've ended up in the hospital a few times dehydrated and they put me on IV and it brought me back but I do drink a lot of water and I'm starting to drink orange juice because I know that's pretty good for you for potassium I do suffer when I have food with calcium chloride in it calcium chloride burns my throat my esophagus if I keep away from it I'm okay sometimes my acid in my stomach is so bad that I have to get an antacid from the doctor and I'm trying to avoid that I also have been taking a probiotic 100 billion it has multi strains but I thought I can hardly even get myself out of bed and it seems to be getting worse and I'm almost 70 but I know some people who are my age and they don't even have as much energy and then some people that have a lot more energy so I don't know what's going on
Doctor, I am a simple philologist But mom was a biologist. So I have knowledge in this field. You are one of the best "explainers " on the face of the earth ! I m following you on Twitter.
I heard, well watched a programme, where they said if you toast frozen bread without defrosting it the starch turns to resistant starch. I also watched another programme where they said if you reheat starchy foods (in the microwave I think) the starch becomes resistant as well. Not sure if all or only some of the starch in both cases becomes resistant. It would be good to know.
I just 20 seconds ago started looking for some form of help. I tried to make a doc. Appointment on Friday but they work Tue. - Thur. As long as I can remember (even as a kid) little kid 7-8. In my free time I would sleep. Teenage years alcohol every day up 18 hrs a day. But always did manual labor on a farm. Relatively excellent health. Sick once a year. But my life has been work a very little activity and sleep. Divorced at 38 work sleep. Stress (Intense) everyday. I work construction and just figured it to be from hard work. At 50 last August (almost a year) even will cannot keep me going. Last Monday I could not sleep and ended up missing a day of work. Any ideas? I live on the road hard to eat good. No alcohol never drugs and no tobacco for 9 years. 3 pots of coffee a day.
What other supplements are you taking at the same time? Alpha lipoic acid can cause problems in some one with an ulcer, IMO, YMMV. Dr. Berg mentioned betaine HCl not playing nice with a gastric ulcer. Predigested proteins? Papain digestive enzyme? I'd avoid high starch foods. Back in the day when I had GERD, tamales were a huge trigger. Betaine HCl with pepsin salvaged my life from misery.
@@nameremoved4010 Betaine HCL WITH Pepsin salvaged my life from misery also. Now I just take Dr. Berg’s Gallbladder formula before meals and snacks. It has the both the Betaine HCL and Pepsin in it. A wonderful formula for post-menopausal women especially.
Hey Dr.Berg, I have a couple of questions regarding Keto! So the first one is, is say for example you are eating 3,000 calories on Keto, would you be able to build more muscle and gain more strength on Keto as opposed to a regular diet with carbohydrates, in terms of taking both diets with the same amount of protein and calories for building muscle and strength, because you would assume that going on Keto, which is the healthier diet would help you achieve more strength and muscle. Second question is, is that when you go on Keto, how often do you have to drink water with Pink Himalayan Salt? Would sprinkling some on your eggs in the morning, then doing 1 in a cup of water for lunch, and 1 for dinner be enough? Or do I need to take in water with Pink Himalayan Salt in between those meals? And also when I'm fasting say for like 20 hours do I need to drink water with Pink Himalayan Salt or can it just be water? Because I know the benefits of the fast would be much more profound without vitamins, but I would assume it would be the same with minerals, because when I would do 20 hour or 24 hour fasts, I would only drink water, but I wasn't on Keto, so maybe I held in more water and salt, and also when I'm exercising like for example playing Tennis or working out on Keto, do I need to bring Pink Himalayan Salt to Tennis or working out? Or is water suffice?
This guy is the only Doctor I bother with when I need to check something whatever it is.

@@ktortora611 You have it covered! I just use one pad for my cats (they share) and made a wrist band grounding strap for me when I need something extra. The throw blankets will work if your cats like to cuddle. (I am surrounded by cats right now, LOL). The pillowcases should be pretty nice. It will be very interesting to see how quickly you notice a difference. Congratulations for taking your health into your hands!!
What supplements ?
Eat meat rare and without carbs, which take alkaline (doesn't play well with acidic juices) to digest. That helps.
it is really important to mention that many people confuse TMG Betaine with Betaine HCL. They are two completely different things and are used for different issues. Please be sure you are buying Betaine HCL!!!!
I have been on ppi sumac for 5 years and iam of the opinion that this is reducing my stomach acid and effecting the efficient digestion of my food and creating my loss of energy
Thank you Dr. Berg for this info. My husband and I are 55 years old and we are experiencing this.
Thank you and we are going to try this
Very glad to be of help!
Did it work?
After ciprofloxacin almost killed me I developed chronic fatigue and horrible weakness when hungry
Cipro me too
These are my symptoms. Belching, gaz, urq pain. Did exam no sign of stones in gallbladder, liver is fine..
I started taking your gallbladder pills and I also ordered Betaine yesterday. . Thank you, so much.
Are you doing better?
It seems counterintuitive but when fatigued muscle through an exercise unless you are diseased in specific way that calls for rest. Also try different diets. With that said, it’s a battle either way.
I will try it (I will try anything) - thanks for the info. Anything to have energy.
Did you try it ? Did it help?
Wow! I'm saving and sharing this! So many people need this information! Betaine hydrochloride!
Every morning apple cider vinegar does the same thing I suppose, and feels more natural to me. But the point is taken, enough acid is necessary for good functioning!
How to take apple cider vinegar each morning?
@@thetree7694 one or two teaspoons in a glass of water, on a empty stomach. Rinse your teeth well afterwards because of the acid...
@@biodivers5294 have it in the morning or anytime please?
@@kingjaffri87 In the morning is probably the best, or before a heavy meal.
@@biodivers5294 thanks 🙏
Betaine Hydrochloride- can you buy it over the counter? What brands are the best? What’s the optimal dosage?
Excellent information!!! Thank you, Dr. Berg!!! 😀👍
For me at 65 , it is trying to keep with 4 Grandchildren ( that all live a 1/2 mile away ) from 5 to 16 years of age ! They are involved in so me activities that I feel like an unpaid Uber Diver , not so much as a Tip !
Mine comes from working all the time.
I was drinking just coffee and carbonated beverages and was not drinking water. And it took days to digest a meal.i was always feeling full and bloated.
I'm fatigued all the time plus I have a dizziness issue. I have gerd so I take 20mg of Omeprazole daily but if I don't take it I start to be in big discomfort. Plus I have other health issues and insomnia.
Did dr. berg recommendations work?
I used to get dizzy when I stood up, often. But Dr. Berg in one video suggested that was low potassium so I started taking his electrolyte drink with 1000mg potassium and it hasn't come back even though I'm not regular with it. I think it depends on the type of dizziness though, years ago I was aenemic and that made me dizzy for sure, all day every day, iron infusion and supplements really helped me back then. I hope you find the right solution 🤞
My mate and I had luck with the celery juice fad, actually. But the high nitrogen in grocery store celery triggers my migraine. But I was on the road to better digestion. My magnesium intake will always be key. We have citrus trees and my best remedy for digestive crashes now is eating an unripe kumquat or the zest from my lemons and limes. Commercial enzyme products trigger my migraine. Vinegar of any kind is migraine hell for me.
I believe it, dr Berg! I’m taking so much HCL and I still have fatigue, acid reflux, I take 3 maybe I need more
I invite all to watch Dr Berg's lives on friday. He gives a lot of info. Thank you for what you share dear Doctor ❤ from Mexico 😗
L Glutamine!! Lets talk about that and leaky gut.... low stomach acid goes hand in hand!! One common symptom of CFIDS which is really a form of leaky gut is feeling ok for a short period of time after eating.
Do you think L glutamin helps for those who have intestinal permaability(aka: Leaky gut)?
How much would you take or did you take?
As I remember dr Berg recommends 10g on empty stomach.
@@futureflow8645 I have been self medicating with LG for the past three months and it has been helping to heal my leaky gut and IBS symptoms. Its amazing. I started with 40 gm per day split into 3 doses the biggest dose i wake up at 5am to take then go back to sleep as it gives it time to absorb. I also take zinc carnatine, and I make meat broth with pig feet to get the gelatin and add it to soups and stews and drink it neat. I drink Kefir with my food too. the L glutamine and the gelatin are the most important though. Good luck
@@justlookattheflowers4239 Thank you for replying. 40 gramm / day of the L glutamin you mean?
I m glad it helped!
I will try it also next week!
Tiredness is a reflection of stress of a health condition or life fact
Low salt intake = GERD. Stomach acid is hydrochloric acid with pH of 1-1.2 very acidic. When pH rises that's when GERD occurs not the other way around. We require plenty of chlorine daily intake of sodium chloride (salt). Eat salt don't take antacids or PPI drugs these only provide temporarily relief like with almost every other drug
Depression, disillusionment and fear of death.
Jesus loves you.❤❤❤.
Good morning Dr. Berg because of you I learned about HCL thanks sooo much ❤️
Im 68, when I take apple cider vinegar before meal, I have a reflux all day long. Am I low or over on hydrochloric acid ? I have chronic gastritis too. Thank you
Hi mam, maybe you have a ulcer, see a doctor. Have a blessed day. 🤗
That sounds reasonable. I'd suggest a Doc with a longevity practice as opposed to one of the conventional boys and girls.
I thought we need to have apple cider vinegar.
acv also helps acidify stomach
if the condition is really bad in this case and you want a reversal in this then betain hydro chlo.. will only help
The correct answer is always ...both
🙏🙏👏👏👏👌👌💐
yes, it will help!
Hello doc,
My Mum has chronic iron deficiency anaemia and takes iron supplementation. If she does not take the supplement her hematocrit drops very sharply and she has a blood transfusion. She also has a very large hiatus hernia and baret's syndrome. Is it possible that the large hiatus hernia is to blame for the anemia? She has never had a hydrochloric acid test either.
Good Morning Dr Berg 🌞
Thank you so very much for sharing this information with everyone , Have a great day , May God continue to bless you all !

First dose made a great change in my energy levels. Awesome! Thank you Dr. Berg.
What exactly are you taking and is it still working for you? I need something
@@holymolyforever8730 Greetings, the recommended betain hydrochloride acid. I just found one on line.
First dose of "what" --I’m exhausted
Apple cider vinegar and lemon 🍋 water 💦
It is so "life-altering", in the very best of ways, when we have a Dr. who actually explains "how our bodies work"!!!!!! ❤ 😊...Dr. Berg you are a true 'lover of mankind "! God bless you abundantly now and forever.......
My most respected Doctor. The place I go for information first.
Thank you kindly.
Dr Berg please make a video about how to reverse grey hairs in early age. Thanks.
What about fatigue from low adrenals and hashimotos? Not anemia or low potassium.
Dr Berg, please make more videos on IBS and SIBO.
I will check with Dr. Berg about doing a video on this!

Dr.berg I've been suffering with chronic fatigue for 10years now I'm drained all the time don't know what to do and yes i suffer from gastritis please help don't know what to do thank you respect from London God bless you 👍🕊🌹💥
Try fasting no food 3 days then 7 days then 12 days then 24 days. Then try fasting for 3 days at regular intervals
Great video Dr. Berg, thanks a lot!!! Could you do a Video on vaccines - the mRNA and DNA ones? Thank you
Greetings from Germany
I’d love you to explaine how this new mRNA vaccine works too
There’s loads of research out there . Probably just not the ones your looking for
So how do you know if you're low on these nutrients like sale, zinc, iodine, etc.?
Thanks great video as always !I have low energy and have had tests done no anemia my hormones are fine . Is there a specific test for low stomach acid ?
Betane Hcl made me feel really ill. Tried taking it several times and same thing happened every time. Horrible. Don't know why?
But doctor, I’m on an acid reducer because I over produce, now what? I am sooooooooooo tired!
I have to take Omeprazole on a daily basis because the stomach acid constantly gives me heartburn. I'm tired and fatigued all the time.
Since i hit 55 a month ago, I have been sleepy at work, i do sleep my hours 7 8 and 9 hours and i eat well but i have been very tire, i bought the pills, lets see what will happen, thank you
Did they work? The pills from Dr . Berg…. Try to not eat bread or even red meat
I have chronic fatigue. I’d like to watch this video, but I’m too f#%ing tired.
I just started taking Methyl B-12/Methyl Folate and Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P) Lozenges to help with fatigue. I'm hoping it helps. I was in a bike accident 20 years ago where I went head first through the rear window of a parked car and ended up in the front seat. I broke my neck, shoulder, ribs, missing muscle mass but by the grace of God I made a full recovery. Now at 52 I'm finding myself getting tired after an easy day at work. I have health insurance but I don't trust the doctors to help me as the last time I went to the doctor he told me I needed a new pillow. He didn't bother to x-ray my neck or back.
Your comment on the doctor who told you to get a pillow - made me laff - hilarious . I cd hear your frustration and I am in Ireland. 🤣🤣🤣
@@stephaniesamra7960 I was told by my gp to take a walk round the block till I started to sweat, this was to sort out my breathlessness.!!!!!
Did it work dr berg’s recommendations
I"ve started drinking Vinegar & Lemon water after supper and feel much better.
what are your suggestions about taking the supplement you recommended if you have had gastric sleeve?
I have 4 friends (all young, under 40) suffering from CF. All of them are vegetarian. Hm-hm...
It's probably their overall diet rather than the vegetarian element that may be the issue
@Just Moi
Do you know how Vegetarian and vegans get their b12 & protein?🤦♂️🤷🏻♂️
@CJ DUNROVIN
Agreed.
And people who eat food that's dressed up to look like meat aren't vegan/ Vegetarian either 🤷🏻♂️🤦♂️
What about those who already had a gall bladder removed? How do you treat chronic fatigue after that?
So where do you get betaine hydrochloride?
@AnetaPietka. I can only tell you what I personally takes or my situation. Don’t know your personal situation. I take 1 Gallbladder capsule just before my first bite. I take a second gallbladder formula between halfway through my meal and towards the end of the meal. I do this for each meal that I eat. Take 1 or none for small snacks, depending on what it is. I personally also have to take Beano just before eating, along with this.
How and when do you take hydrochloric acid? Explain how to take it please.
Hi there. You can get it as a supplement. Please see here: ua-cam.com/video/Jc1y0tfwWlo/v-deo.html
I'm just reading that the US banned use of OTC betaine hydrochloride :( ....I was just going to start taking it
I'm knackered most of the time. Constantly need sleep because I don't sleep well. Pre diabetic doesn't help. I think I'll die within the next twenty years.
What has happened to the coverage of Helene? It's a total black out! Now ask yourself, why!
I have CFIDS and Fibromyalgia for over 20 years. Nothing has helped including keto, nutritional yeast and everything you recommend. I am 64 and have had these conditions as well as spasmodic torticollis. Its hard to lose weight and excercise with these conditions. Incredible fatigue. Have been taking ACV for awhile. I have great digestion. I am not anemic and have otherwise good health. I will persist with all your advice but am cautiosly optimistic.
Vitamin d3 or b12
do you have any silver fillings or root canals?
What about the ACV drink before meals, and as a daily routine?
Ok, Betan Hydrochloric Acid. Thats good to know. Where do we get it? Is like Apple Cider Acid? Or dose it come pill form?
I'm almost 70 and I walk a lot but I am constantly tired and it's pathetic I'm so drained and I wake up in the middle of the night and I can't get back to sleep and I don't have afternoon naps cuz my brain won't shut down and I had a car accident 2 years ago and I broke my collarbone and I had a concussion and since then I noticed I've been extremely tired I've ended up in the hospital a few times dehydrated and they put me on IV and it brought me back but I do drink a lot of water and I'm starting to drink orange juice because I know that's pretty good for you for potassium I do suffer when I have food with calcium chloride in it calcium chloride burns my throat my esophagus if I keep away from it I'm okay sometimes my acid in my stomach is so bad that I have to get an antacid from the doctor and I'm trying to avoid that I also have been taking a probiotic 100 billion it has multi strains but I thought I can hardly even get myself out of bed and it seems to be getting worse and I'm almost 70 but I know some people who are my age and they don't even have as much energy and then some people that have a lot more energy so I don't know what's going on
Thank you Dr Berg for your expertise.
If I'm on the 20mg daily of Omeprazole can I still take the Betaine Hydrochloride? If, so where do I purchase it at? Thanks!
Would applecidervinegar do it to?
Dr..you said take 4 to 5 (pills)before you eat. how many MG per pill?
Wouldn't apple cider vinegar help?
Doctor,
I am a simple philologist
But mom was a biologist.
So I have knowledge in this field.
You are one of the best "explainers " on the face of the earth !
I m following you on Twitter.
I’ve taken Prilosec for years for acid reflux. If I stop the Prilosec, the reflux will come back. Seems like a catch-22.
So will Omeprozole cause fatigue ? I’ve suffered from fatigue for years but have also been taking Esomeprazole for years too .
Realworld Education ive been taking omeprozole and been very tired for same amou t of time.
Dr. Berg, can you make a topic about resistant starch. Thank you
Would be great ☺️
Yes, please!
I heard, well watched a programme, where they said if you toast frozen bread without defrosting it the starch turns to resistant starch.
I also watched another programme where they said if you reheat starchy foods (in the microwave I think) the starch becomes resistant as well.
Not sure if all or only some of the starch in both cases becomes resistant.
It would be good to know.
@@anon9362 yeah, I heard about that too
Thank you for the video suggestion. I will check with Dr. Berg about doing a video on this!

I just 20 seconds ago started looking for some form of help. I tried to make a doc. Appointment on Friday but they work Tue. - Thur.
As long as I can remember (even as a kid) little kid 7-8.
In my free time I would sleep.
Teenage years alcohol every day up 18 hrs a day. But always did manual labor on a farm.
Relatively excellent health. Sick once a year.
But my life has been work a very little activity and sleep.
Divorced at 38 work sleep. Stress (Intense) everyday.
I work construction and just figured it to be from hard work.
At 50 last August (almost a year) even will cannot keep me going.
Last Monday I could not sleep and ended up missing a day of work. Any ideas?
I live on the road hard to eat good. No alcohol never drugs and no tobacco for 9 years. 3 pots of coffee a day.
I've tried betaine hydrochloride how ever it makes me sick is probiotics another option? Or maybe sauerkraut I also have low vit d
Following.
What other supplements are you taking at the same time? Alpha lipoic acid can cause problems in some one with an ulcer, IMO, YMMV.
Dr. Berg mentioned betaine HCl not playing nice with a gastric ulcer.
Predigested proteins? Papain digestive enzyme?
I'd avoid high starch foods. Back in the day when I had GERD, tamales were a huge trigger.
Betaine HCl with pepsin salvaged my life from misery.
@@nameremoved4010 Betaine HCL WITH Pepsin salvaged my life from misery also. Now I just take Dr. Berg’s Gallbladder formula before meals and snacks. It has the both the Betaine HCL and Pepsin in it. A wonderful formula for post-menopausal women especially.
I break the HCA in half - have you tried that?
Hey Dr.Berg, I have a couple of questions regarding Keto! So the first one is, is say for example you are eating 3,000 calories on Keto, would you be able to build more muscle and gain more strength on Keto as opposed to a regular diet with carbohydrates, in terms of taking both diets with the same amount of protein and calories for building muscle and strength, because you would assume that going on Keto, which is the healthier diet would help you achieve more strength and muscle. Second question is, is that when you go on Keto, how often do you have to drink water with Pink Himalayan Salt? Would sprinkling some on your eggs in the morning, then doing 1 in a cup of water for lunch, and 1 for dinner be enough? Or do I need to take in water with Pink Himalayan Salt in between those meals? And also when I'm fasting say for like 20 hours do I need to drink water with Pink Himalayan Salt or can it just be water? Because I know the benefits of the fast would be much more profound without vitamins, but I would assume it would be the same with minerals, because when I would do 20 hour or 24 hour fasts, I would only drink water, but I wasn't on Keto, so maybe I held in more water and salt, and also when I'm exercising like for example playing Tennis or working out on Keto, do I need to bring Pink Himalayan Salt to Tennis or working out? Or is water suffice?
