My mother always eats tons of oranges and apples, and yet had bleeding gums. The dentist told her to take vitamin C supplements and the bleeding gums were gone...if she stops taking it, they start bleeding again. It seems allmost like fruits lost their nutritional value..
SCARY & I have about 3 of these, I know I don't get enough C. If anyone's taking Ascorbate C, don't forget to add Copper supp., asborbate depletes copper
Most fruits you buy in a store for sure did lose their nutritional value. An apple can be stored for years and looks perfectly fresh when stored under the right circumstances (humidity, temperature and so on). Would recommend to only go for organic and fresh fruits from the farmer nearby or even grow your own, if possible anyhow.

@@Vini.1111 yes , no water added , no juice added all natural , also drinking and eating aloe helps with so many things like sugar levels , chorlesterol , blood cleansing , eye bright , organs , believe me , hair is so much softer and fuller , nail beds white and clear , no plaque on teeth 🦷, , try it , been at this 37 years , never failed a physical exam , ♥️
@@Vini.1111 also you can blend your fruits and beets with celery,cucumber and spinach , personally I don’t , I am use to it just drink it straight up , it grows on me meaning taste buds , lol hope that’s helps , ♥️
After more than 20 years smoking, I finally decided to quit. A few days ago, I got sick. Thought I had c-vid, turns out it was just the flu but felt like someone had jumped me the day before lol I was unable to sleep and really started to watch your videos. I was beyond motivated. I’ve been loosing weight, from being almost 300 lbs, now I’m 229 lbs and your videos just gave me what I needed to realize how important is to establish better habits, one of those is stop smoking. I’ve been sharing all this info with my love ones. Thank you for such great content.
I feel great already, it’s been a few days but this change has been cooking for a while. I really appreciate the encouragement. Hope nothing but the best on your future endeavors!
I can totally attest to this... Moreover, I was taking up to 6000 MG OF "VITAMIN C" in the form of ascorbic acid and I had loose teeth, gum problems, fatigue and a BUNCH of other issues. After I saw the video he links at the end of this video, I changed over to food based vitamin C with about 500 -1000 mg of ascorbic to help supplement. In about a month my bleeding gums, loose teeth, fatigue and all the other issues went away. Vitamin C is much more complex than just "ascorbic acid". So THANKS DR BERG for saving my teeth and my health! 👏
I'm pretty sure I've had a minor Vitamin C deficiency for years. Though I would regularly consume at least a lemon per day, they were usually small ones and their vitamin C content is pretty average. This year I started eating golden kiwi regularly for my Vitamin C, and I honestly have to say they are amazing. Besides the fact that they're tasty and have a ton of Vitamin C, I think they are better for digestive health than anything I've ever tried before. I highly recommend them to anyone not on keto.
Hello Clim Hazzard, if you're looking to further increase your Vitamin C, I would recommended dried fruit Camu Camu. It's sold in a powdered form which contains about 750 - 1000 % daily intake for only 1 teaspoon!!! To be honest I was shocked and amazed, it also have antioxidants. (Always make sure its certified organic) Tip*** - you could use this on your face to produce collagen and skin elasticity or perhaps take a bath with it!!! Anyways, have a great one :)
Sauerkraut is very high in vit c and Dr Berg always recommends it. If you want to drink lemon juice, Dr Berg recommends blending the WHOLE organic lemon, seeds, pith, skin and all. I blend a big batch and freeze it all in ice cube containers. Works a treat.
Come on thank you Dr Berg for all that you do with your videos. One year and 6 months ago I began with apple cider vinegar and lemon every morning and then Keto diet with intermittent fasting about once a week 24 hours, then 48 hours and 72 hours occasionally. This I did for 6 months and I lost almost 70 lb. One year later no regain of weight and fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue seems to have disappeared. Also stopped losing hair, I am a female. I've also been doing cruciferous vegetables and generally following your videos. I Hashimoto's is also gone. You are the most amazing individual and deserve so much credit for inspiring natural remedies for the best health. If only Colleges and Schools taught what you have discovered. God bless you for everything.
@@shenaazarbee389 they don't really have too many meds for fibro or chronic fatigue except Zanaflex and Gabapentin. As for the Hashimoto's nothing worked. Plus after a while, though the symptoms remained the test started coming in negative. My first thyroid issue was discovered as hypothyroidism when I was 14 which was in the 1960s. Was so difficult to keep weight down and by the time I was 18 everything was way out of control. My mother's doctor ordered one shot of estrogen and one shot of progesterone. I do not know dosage. My thyroid went to normal and stayed that way for over 30 years. I believe Dr Berg mentioned something about hormones and the thyroid in one of his videos. I've never discovered anyone else linking those hormones with hypothyroidism and he indicated 90% hypothyroids are truly Hashimoto's. The Chronic fatigue was unbelievably debilitating. Just going to the doctor would cause me to zone out for the rest of the day. And there were times when for no discernible reason I would begin to fall asleep and to my dinner plate. I only eat usually once a day sometimes twice. I am not doing Keto as much as it is difficult since I do not cook anymore for the most part. It seems that my system was really cleaned out. I hope this helps.
@@arriolamyca3 two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar with mother and one tablespoon of fresh lemon juice in the a.m. I added water and sea salt or Himalayan salt to adjust for taste similar to a salad dressing I drank maybe half of it in the morning and then sipped a little throughout the day and then drink the balance in the evening everyday I forgot to mention my belly disappeared. I hope this helps you
@@Drberg Hello Dr. Berg! Could you please do a video on nose bleeds? I've been suffering from them since 2018. I've been to the hospital once to get it checked out. Was prescribed a nasal spray(can't remember it's name). Now it seems like it's getting worst. I try not to touch my face(below the eye area) or stretch because I noticed that whenever I do my nose bleeds profusely. Thanks.
@@Ohkeh640 I take 2,000Mg a day. I use acerola natural vitamin C. Liver cleansing through juicing, or herbs also helps. I do take a multivitamin and lugols iodine. When I added the vitamin C I noticed the improvement. I come from an ethnic background where I thought the unwanted hair was genetic, apparently not.
Great Video Eric. I've tried to tell my brother over and over again how so-called "100%" apple juice is full of sugar, because our elderly Mum has age related diabetes, and that her eating fruit is much better. Now I'm able to share your video with him, I just sent him a text with a link to this video. And I thank you too as I have some of the symptoms of being Vitamin C deficient, much appreciated.
This is helpful. I asked for lab work to see if I have certain vitamin deficiency and was told that unless she could provide a good reason why, my insurance won't pay for it. In the past 3 years I've discovered to have severe anemia at least twice. Most likely to my heavy cycles BUT I've ALWAYS had extremely heavy cycles w/o the anemia..notice a loss in volume in NY face in the past 2 years as well...I have spider veins...this video has led me to believe a possible C deficiency has contributed to the changes I've noticed . I'm going to make some adjustments to my diet and see what happens. Thanks Dr Berg!
Lemons and limes are good sources of vitamin C, and they can be added to many dishes and beverages to create good flavours. They are also low in calories and have much lower sugar when compared to other fruits
A navel Orange only has 26g of carbs. You'll still be Keto with one orange a day. Oranges are the LAST sweet thing I allow myself. I savor ever drop of my precious oranges! 😂
Have you ever figured out what causes that? I think it’s some sort of allergy to something. But humans hang survive without vitamin C so what forms do you get it ?
I had bad tartar build up on my teeth since I was little along with bleeding gums. I have my teeth cleaned quarterly to keep it under control. I have had fatigue every since I can remember. Doctors run standard test & say I'm fine. I have dry hair as well & other symptoms listed. Thanks for the information!

I add Avocados to my Watermelon juice so that the fats from the Avocado help dampen any sugar spike from the Watermelon. Question though, if i add my berries to my hot bowl of oatmeal, does that now destroy the vitamin C in the berries?
Regular doctors and pharmacists think vitamins are “ kooky” can you imagine why it’s hard to take them seriously? They’re pushing meds with horrible side effects they maybe don’t work, but say nothing on vitamins/ proper nutrition 🤡.
by whim I started eating a few vitamin C gummies in the house every other day. WIthin a month I found my mood had improved, and my depression had been made far more tolerable. I could also focus more.
I agree with this 100%! One thing I'd like to say - relevant for women - when I was taking a higher dose vitamin C (1000mg) daily for about 2-3 weeks my progesterone levels went through the roof and caused certain PMS symptoms I never experienced before. When I stopped it went back to normal.
@@alegriart my progesterone was at the levels of a pregnant woman (I definitely wasn't pregnant) and my estrogen was pretty low. Apparently it's a well established fact that vitamin C causes elevated progesterone levels, a simple Google search will show you that. Edit: I'm obviously saying this based on the extensive hormonal blood work panel that I did when I was experiencing that, which I didn't point out in my earlier comment.
@@Luva_-_ turns out it's an established fact that vitamin C can cause elevated levels of progesterone in women. I was surprised to learn that when my hormone labs came back showing a massive increase.
@@alegriart you are quoting improvement of endothelial function. I don't know what you think endothelial function is or what it has to do with an acute increase in progesterone production. The answer is - nothing. Cheers.
Vit c is stored in adrenals and is required for the healthy function of adrenal cortex and medulla which is inner and outer part of adrenal gland. It is a helper nutrient for catecholamines- which are the neurotransmitters inside the adrenals ( like serotonin, dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline). It is a co- factor for steroid hormones out of the gland like cortisol, aldosterone, androgens. Progestrone is a pre hormone and it helps in making cortisol so adrenal gland makes progestrone too apart from ovaries. Vit c helps with adrenals that's why you have high levels of progestrone . I have vit c deficiency and have very low levels of progestrone and my adrenals are burned up and i have severe adrenal fatigue.
What do symptoms of general chest pain and slight pressure headache? No shortness of breathe, no lack of energy, no blood pressure problems, no dizziness.
Apples and peanut butter are my favorite snack. It satisfies all the cravings; salty, sweet, crunchy and creamy. I also stir ground flax seeds into natural peanut butter to keep the oil for separating.
Thank you for your detailed explanation. Their is no problem if the vitamin C is consumed via an approved product, or just through natural sources. Just stay away from those shelved products if possible.
Hi Dr Berg, Do i should drink Apple vinegar every day forever or just for some period of time? It does help me now but is it neccesary or would it harm if i drink it for the eternity?
Well, it shouldn't be, so maybe you have an underlying problem like GERD. In any case magnesium ascorbate is vitamin C but without the part that makes it acidic.
The type of apple matters. For instance, granny smith apples have a lower glycemic index than other apples. That is why I choose to only eat organic granny smith apples and avoid other types of apples that have higher glycemic indexes.
Thank you so much, Dr. Berg, for sharing your knowledge. I love the way you explain everything. You are a real doctor that knows about cures, not like most doctors who only know medicine. I respect surgeons. I have problems, and I am sleeping 45 minutes at night, and since October, they haven’t found what’s going on with my sore throat. They say it is acid reflux, but I am pretty sure I have something viral or bacterial they spent eight years in medicine for nothing very disappointing. God bless you and protect you.
Dr Berg.... At night my hands and feet have been cold in the past, but in the last couple weeks after taking your Vit C complex I'm waking up at night warm and sweaty. This is much better than being cold all the time in cool/cold weather. This is great. Is this expected with taking the real Vit C as in the past I was taking regular Ascorbic acid? Has anyone else have this type of experience? Is it due to increase circulation?
I have hypothyroidism and get cold hands and feet when I forget to take my thyroid hormone tablets. Just thought I'd mention it, in case your thyroid has anything to do with it.
Good Morning , Dr.Berg 🌞 Happy Holidays & Season Greeting 🎄🎅 Thank you so much sharing this Interesting Information with us , Have a wonderful day ! 🙏 12 / 9 / 2022 🙏
If you're taking a supplement, make sure it's a natural, food-based vitamin C complex. We can recommend Dr. Berg’s Chewable Vitamin C. If you want more information about the product, feel free to check it out here: 🛒 drbrg.co/3ibNL5k OR amzn.to/3tWES22 Dr. Berg's Support Team.
after seeing this video my question is Dr Berg is it good to buy apple cider juice instead of just plain juice to get the good amount of vitamin C? I asked this coz they look darker and the expiration usually in a few days but i avoid buying it coz i dont like eating apples or drinking juice coz its too sweet for me....🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
There must be an adapted equivalent in other countries too. We don t have to fly everything. Nature is an intelligent force growing what you need in your region if man does not alter it.
We have farmlands back in India & I live in Canada. Whenever I visit our farmland & eat those organically grown vegetables & fruits it tastes completely different & I feel very energetic & healthy next day. Seems like fruits & vegetables that we eat in today’s world has no remaining of any nutrients.
I have vitamin C deficiency i have almost all symptoms Dr Berg mentioned but whenever i see my bleeding gums and Patechie /purpura it kills me outta fear 😢😢😢
7:40 Ascorbic acid is made from corn starch and sulfuric acid… and the FDA says this is okay for you to ingest. labeling laws are as loose as you can imagine
C salts vitamin c supplements is the best! Also make sure to get your B vitamins and also iron because they all work in conjunction with vitamin C absorption so iron and herbs is another great supplement
I have histamine intolerance, so i normally react very bad to Vitamin C products ,which often made from corn , did you react to this one or not ? Because i read it’s corn free and not fermented , which can be very helpful for me. And is it gentle on stomach?
I have low vit c because I have mast cell activation which is causing problems in my body. I have to eat low histamine foods so I don't eat too many different foods right now. Got it from a virus. Thx for your great videos!
I love it… thanks 🙏I don’t eat sugar at all … I don’t like it, as a take the real taste of what we eating .. unacceptable PS : I’m 59 years old and this picture was taking on my birthday 🥳
Dr.Berg Can you please do a video on liposomal vitamin C how good this vitamin when is it protected...is it a better form How about some of the vegetables with high vitamin C if we heat them or steam them we are loose vitamin C right ?
I've never had my vitamin c checked from any doctors until 2 years ago when my thyroid doctor decided to check it and my results came back saying that my vitamin c was at a zero from where I didnt have any. I was severely deficient and didnt know it. I always drunk orange juice but apparently it wasnt enough so he had put me on a supplement to take for a while. Sadly I havent had it taken since then. So I'm not sure what my level is at this point.
My mother always eats tons of oranges and apples, and yet had bleeding gums. The dentist told her to take vitamin C supplements and the bleeding gums were gone...if she stops taking it, they start bleeding again. It seems allmost like fruits lost their nutritional value..
Agree!
SCARY & I have about 3 of these, I know I don't get enough C. If anyone's taking Ascorbate C, don't forget to add Copper supp., asborbate depletes copper

Yes I think our food has lost a lot of nutritional value - poor soil and chemical sprays and picked before it’s time.

Hello, could you make a video on IV infusions like vitamin C and B. Are they beneficial? Thank you
love learning everything you have to offer!
Is it good idea to take vitamin c if you have inflamed joints or lower back pain?
Lower back pain is a sign of vitamin d3 deficiency. Vitamin c complex cannot hurt
@@pga972 or too much sitting.
I agree with this 100%! One thing I'd like to say - relevant for women - when I was taking a higher dose vitamin C (1000mg) daily for about 2-3 weeks my progesterone levels went through the roof and caused certain PMS symptoms I never experienced before. When I stopped it went back to normal.
@@alegriart my progesterone was at the levels of a pregnant woman (I definitely wasn't pregnant) and my estrogen was pretty low. Apparently it's a well established fact that vitamin C causes elevated progesterone levels, a simple Google search will show you that.
Edit: I'm obviously saying this based on the extensive hormonal blood work panel that I did when I was experiencing that, which I didn't point out in my earlier comment.
@@Luva_-_ turns out it's an established fact that vitamin C can cause elevated levels of progesterone in women. I was surprised to learn that when my hormone labs came back showing a massive increase.
@@alegriart you are quoting improvement of endothelial function. I don't know what you think endothelial function is or what it has to do with an acute increase in progesterone production. The answer is - nothing. Cheers.
Vit c is stored in adrenals and is required for the healthy function of adrenal cortex and medulla which is inner and outer part of adrenal gland. It is a helper nutrient for catecholamines- which are the neurotransmitters inside the adrenals ( like serotonin, dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline).
It is a co- factor for steroid hormones out of the gland like cortisol, aldosterone, androgens.
Progestrone is a pre hormone and it helps in making cortisol so adrenal gland makes progestrone too apart from ovaries.
Vit c helps with adrenals that's why you have high levels of progestrone .
I have vit c deficiency and have very low levels of progestrone and my adrenals are burned up and i have severe adrenal fatigue.
At what phase of your cycle you got yourself tested??!
Powerful visual! One cube of sugar is the only amount of sugar we should have in bloodstream😮
Good morning Dr. Berg thank you again for doing these Vitamin video's. You're a blessing 💜🙏🏽
What do symptoms of general chest pain and slight pressure headache? No shortness of breathe, no lack of energy, no blood pressure problems, no dizziness.
Excellent information my friend Merci beaucoup
Dr Berg - very good advices as usual
Advice
Apples and peanut butter are my favorite snack. It satisfies all the cravings; salty, sweet, crunchy and creamy. I also stir ground flax seeds into natural peanut butter to keep the oil for separating.
Thanks for the flax seed tip
Thank you for your detailed explanation. Their is no problem if the vitamin C is consumed via an approved product, or just through natural sources. Just stay away from those shelved products if possible.
Im a very picky eater will taking vitamins help for this? What is a good daily dose?
Hi Dr Berg, Do i should drink Apple vinegar every day forever or just for some period of time? It does help me now but is it neccesary or would it harm if i drink it for the eternity?
Good morning 😊
Dr Berg this very much appreciated, but is loss of elastin also linked to Vitamin C deficiency? Also is Amla a good source of whole vitamin C?
Good content as usual!
What are the options if you find vitamin C to acidic?
Look for buffered vitamin C
Just have it after meals.
Well, it shouldn't be, so maybe you have an underlying problem like GERD. In any case magnesium ascorbate is vitamin C but without the part that makes it acidic.
OMG !!!
This video just blew my mind!
This doesn't happen very often.
I'd also add camu camu berry powder to the list .One of the highest natural sources of vitamin C 👌
The type of apple matters. For instance, granny smith apples have a lower glycemic index than other apples. That is why I choose to only eat organic granny smith apples and avoid other types of apples that have higher glycemic indexes.
Hi Dr. Berg, I would love to hear your thoughts on some of these new probiotics such as EM-1, and HMO's.
Thank you so much, Dr. Berg, for sharing your knowledge. I love the way you explain everything. You are a real doctor that knows about cures, not like most doctors who only know medicine. I respect surgeons. I have problems, and I am sleeping 45 minutes at night, and since October, they haven’t found what’s going on with my sore throat. They say it is acid reflux, but I am pretty sure I have something viral or bacterial they spent eight years in medicine for nothing very disappointing. God bless you and protect you.
Just have a mixture of pure honey, lemon and ginger and your sickness will go away.
Have you tried magnesium? We’re often deficient in it and it helps sleep and many more things!
Have you look up your symptoms connecting with Adrenal fatigue?
Tnx Doc...for another enlightening video
Where is the guy who writes the list in every video?
Dr is it ok to take vitamin c from indian gooseberry?? Is it good source for vitamin c or not??
It’s one of the best sources 😊
Two things:
Eat your fruit , drink water.
Half an apple at a time is plenty and always with fat.
Wow....what a good information Dr. Berg👐👌thank you🙏

Hi doctor wish you merry xmas.... This small note is to clear a doubt.. I heard like too much intake of cabbage is dangerous for thyroid... Thanks
Fantastic information 🍀 Thank you

I'm glad I have 2 orders of Dr. Berg's Vitamin C Complex!
As usual great info..Tx Dr. Berg !!
Most welcome!
If there was something good I did today, I was enlightened by you. Thank you very much.
Would you not recommend lime or lemon juice (juicing then myself) with pulp for a vitamin C deficiency?
Just about everything on your list I have ...not one doctor tells me to do this!
Hello Dr Berg thank you for the video, how can I get that product am in Uganda East Africa hope you will reply. Thanks
I always learn something new from Dr Berg. Many thanks. I juice a lemon everyday and drink it in a glass of water.
Dr Berg.... At night my hands and feet have been cold in the past, but in the last couple weeks after taking your Vit C complex I'm waking up at night warm and sweaty. This is much better than being cold all the time in cool/cold weather. This is great. Is this expected with taking the real Vit C as in the past I was taking regular Ascorbic acid? Has anyone else have this type of experience? Is it due to increase circulation?
I have hypothyroidism and get cold hands and feet when I forget to take my thyroid hormone tablets. Just thought I'd mention it, in case your thyroid has anything to do with it.
Hypochondria would make sense though because a deficiency affects soo many things. That is so interesting.
Totally ,being medical students whenever i read a disease or examine a patient my hypochondria kills me 😢
Good Morning , Dr.Berg 🌞
Happy Holidays & Season Greeting 🎄🎅
Thank you so much sharing this Interesting Information with us , Have a wonderful day !

after seeing this video my question is Dr Berg is it good to buy apple cider juice instead of just plain juice to get the good amount of vitamin C? I asked this coz they look darker and the expiration usually in a few days but i avoid buying it coz i dont like eating apples or drinking juice coz its too sweet for me....🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
How much C a day should we take?
Please advise what to consume for those who's joints start hurting after taking regular lemon in water for the vitamin C
Dr. Berg, you neglected the vitamin c-rich Indian gooseberry, often known as amla.
There must be an adapted equivalent in other countries too. We don t have to fly everything. Nature is an intelligent force growing what you need in your region if man does not alter it.
We have farmlands back in India & I live in Canada. Whenever I visit our farmland & eat those organically grown vegetables & fruits it tastes completely different & I feel very energetic & healthy next day. Seems like fruits & vegetables that we eat in today’s world has no remaining of any nutrients.
I have vitamin C deficiency i have almost all symptoms Dr Berg mentioned but whenever i see my bleeding gums and Patechie /purpura it kills me outta fear 😢😢😢
Sorry to hear that. Sharing my videos here on Vitamin C: www.youtube.com/@DrEricBergDC/search?query=vitamin%20c%20source
7:40 Ascorbic acid is made from corn starch and sulfuric acid… and the FDA says this is okay for you to ingest. labeling laws are as loose as you can imagine
What do you do if you're allergic to citric acid and fruit.
Wow! Thank you Dr Berg : )
Very nice video , thanks doctor :)
Most welcome! Glad you liked it
C salts vitamin c supplements is the best! Also make sure to get your B vitamins and also iron because they all work in conjunction with vitamin C absorption so iron and herbs is another great supplement
I have histamine intolerance, so i normally react very bad to Vitamin C products ,which often made from corn , did you react to this one or not ? Because i read it’s corn free and not fermented , which can be very helpful for me.
And is it gentle on stomach?
@@abdulbadenjki5292 no reaction it's the best supplement for sensitive people
I have low vit c because I have mast cell activation which is causing problems in my body. I have to eat low histamine foods so I don't eat too many different foods right now. Got it from a virus. Thx for your great videos!
I love it… thanks 🙏I don’t eat sugar at all … I don’t like it, as a take the real taste of what we eating .. unacceptable
PS : I’m 59 years old and this picture was taking on my birthday 🥳
Dr.Berg

Hope this video helps!

Me. Berg do you take any multivitamins if you do which brand
Could you go more in depth on the connection between shortness of breath and vitamin c? Just out of curiosity.
Thank you🙏🏼

Good morning and thank you 😊
Finally volume is fixed!
I've never had my vitamin c checked from any doctors until 2 years ago when my thyroid doctor decided to check it and my results came back saying that my vitamin c was at a zero from where I didnt have any. I was severely deficient and didnt know it. I always drunk orange juice but apparently it wasnt enough so he had put me on a supplement to take for a while. Sadly I havent had it taken since then. So I'm not sure what my level is at this point.
Teresa Kelley- lack of C is FATAL Friend ⭐️♥️
@@noracharles9366 I know, I'm gonna get my doctor to check my levels again.
