How curious! I went 100% carnivore in late January if this year, 2021, and discivered on my own, my COPD symptoms are all but gone. I used to rely on two daily inhalers. Now? Seldom even find myself reaching for the rescue one. I'm so glad you have found bona fide research supporting this theory. I eat beef, eggs, butter and water ONLY, 2mad and I'm fit as a fiddle at 73 years young!
My wife has had asthma since childhood, often needing an inhaler. In 2007 she was involved in a serious car accident that left her with a 40% loss on one lung, now on a daily inhaler and frequently a rescue inhaler. She was on several meds including gabapentin. Just doing one flight of stairs was difficult. When she witnessed my health improvements with my RA and another autoimmune disease with Keto she secretly began Keto. In 2 months she was off all meds including her inhalers. Since her car accident her annual lung function test showed at best holding her own, but a decline in performance was typical. Just 6 months after she began Keto her annual lung function test was due, and she showed a 16% improvement, and that was while off her inhaler. Her respirologist had never seen diet improve anyone's respiratory condition. She's been doing all day mountain hikes with me now, and the smoke from our annual forest fires no longer bother her. 2 years after Keto was her next lung function test, a 30% improvement!
Carnivore diet is the best diet in the world!! Cured my: Attrial fib. , Diabetes, H.B.P. ,Lost 106 lbs. & feel better than my whole life!! & I'm 60 years old!!👍💪
Yes, but to lose weight vegan one is the best, but the problem is often vegans keep on decaying after they are in it for the long term. Were you vegan before?
Absolutely true! I'm into Keto now for the past 4 months, Severe COPD, oxygen at night 2 steroid inhalers, along with the rescue inhaler. I haven't used a inhaler in a month. I've lost 35 lbs and have started walking and riding my bike. I'm a 67 year old male. I have a VA Doc. appointment next month. I can't wait to show off! Thanks Dr. Berry
This is 2 years later, I hope you are doing well and still watching to be sure you get low carbs.......I bet your VA dr. did not act as happy as you hoped he would.....not sure you will see this, but give us a report if you can...
As a retired respiratory therapist, I know we learned about high fat, low carb diets for COPD patients. I can’t wait for the carnivore docs to start presenting at the Respiratory conferences! This patient population is desperate for Hope and things that will help them. COPD conditions create a very slow dying process.

3 month ago my lungfunction was at 30 % now after 2 month of ketovore and intermittent fasting I'm up to 50 % . I'm 63 and my lungs have been bad almost my whole life ...I'm so happy .. Thank you Dr Berry ♥️
I have a 31 fv1 45 lbs overweight trying to loose weight going to va the 25 maybe a diet pill or a thermal abatement or lung reduction maybe I might not make it next yr
I have COPD. I started keto about a month ago. I've seen a significant improvement in my symptoms. My friend has a very steep hill leading to her front door. I climbed it yesterday for the first time since keto OMG!! I climbed the hill in one go. I was very slightly breathless. Before keto, I had to stop twice on the way up the hill and by the time I reached the top I was very breathless..almost to the point of passing out. My theoretical understanding of keto is now proving itself in the real world. And I've lost 15 pounds. KETO 👍👍 EDIT 1 year later: A *drastic* improvement in my COPD. I can walk for *MILES* without getting breathless. (Also lost 70 1lb of fat).
@@haloSrising it was years but its sneaky because in summer he'd feel he'd live another 5yrs and in winter just got worse and we basically live at the hospital. I guess it depends on each individual. Keto had given me back my life in many ways. I can't believe what I can do some days
@@miriam2909 Hello, first: I'm very sorry for your lost.. I have End Stage COPD, diagnosed 2014.. And I was feeling the same way as your Husband. A little bit better in the summer. But the winter was something else. The past 2 - 1/2 years have been some of the hardest times ever. And the last 14 to 15 months, I've been on my back, unable to breathe and unable to move.. I'm 59 years old, tiring 60 in October.. I'm getting ready to start this Diet and see what happens.. At this point, I'm willing to try anything. I really want to be able to see my Grandchildren grow up a little bit longer.. My Blessings to you , prayers for you to be able to have a wonderful long life.🙏❤️
I am sooo happy to see this video! I am a respiratory therapist and when I was in school I learned that carbohydrates create CO2 and I never understood why nobody recommended low carb/keto. I’ve never heard anyone say this!
I just seen a pulmonary sleep Dr . I mentioned keto to her and she acted like it was the devil turning your blood acid . It makes me sad so many of her patients could benefit tremendously from keto or carnivore but she’s worried they are gonna have acidic blood
🙋♀️ Chronic respiratory infections, severe year-round allergies, more medications than I could count, even had croup in my 30s! Started clean keto 6 years ago, haven't been sick a single time, and now take zero medications. I don't even have seasonal allergies anymore!
That is an awesome testimony! Thank you for sharing! How long did it take you to get there? I've been on it for around 4 months and am still fighting chronic bronchitis almost daily if I don't take antibacterial supps every day!
Awesome! Same deal for me. Keto diet has yielded huge benefits including no more allergies! No more crappy expensive allergy pills. I'm out in parks and woods all the time now problem free and feeling strong.
@@jenisecoronado5555 try a table spoon of manukah honey 🍯 when you first wake up in the morning and let it soak in for about 15 minutes before eating or drinking anything. I got mine at Costco for $31 , but so worth it, you’ll start feeling a difference in a week, definitely by week 2
I was recently hospitalised due to an asthma attack, and when I told the lung doctor that sugary foods are one of the things which exacerbate my asthma, she pretty much dismissed the possibility. She gave me a stronger inhaler but it was too harsh on my lungs, so I have gone back to using my less powerful one. As someone who suffers from chronic inflammation, the greatest exacerbation, and indeed, what I believe to be the main cause, is a lifelong terrible sleeping pattern. Whenever I sleep poorly or work nights my symptoms (which include nasal polyps) are greatly worsened, and whenever I sleep good or work days my symptoms greatly improve. Hopefully, healthy sleep, keto, and intermittent fasting can resolve my ailments and get me off the inhalers...
Was on inhalers for 20 years - for asthma. Coughed ALL the time. People thought I was Typhoid Mary. So embarrassing! Started keto, and about 30 days in, I just stopped coughing. Life changing! Thank you!
Thanks Ken my mum died of this wish I knew what I know now . I've been following this diet for a while . No more psoriasis no more psychological meds, no more epilepsy. No more arthritis. 52 and fittest I've ever felt mentally and physically. God bless xx
Hi there first of all congratulations, may I ask what type of psoriasis did you have, I get scalp psoriasis and have tried many shampoos but none have made much of a difference, I've also just been diagnosed with adhd I'm not on meds for that. Cheers
I have early COPD, but yeah. This year has been bad as I was constantly sick and always coughing. Eventually antibiotics came into play as the fluid build up got infected. Doc gave me an inhaler and also some pills to help dry things up at night. Prior to, I had been taking Benadryl to reduce the night time choking, basically. The round of antibiotics did their job but I was still coughing tremendously. I got my blood panel back and WhoA super duper diabetic. I knew what to do. I threw myself into ketogenesis and as soon as I was at that point, the night time coughing stopped and I set the meds aside. Within a week all my coughing was gone even though it has taken longer to bring my blood sugar down. One of the symptoms of diabetes is a particular type of fluid build up in the lungs. The sputum from this has a distinct signature. I wasn’t sick from the COPD as much as I was from the diabetes! The fluid reduction in the very beginning did the trick. I’m on carnivore and I’m staying on it!
i was diagnosed with COPD three years ago. i've been keto for nearly 11 months and have noticed an improvment in my breathing. i just put this down to losing weight never even entered my head that it was helping with the inflamtion in my lungs as it has in the rest of my body. really informative video.
I wish I found this sooner. My Mom is in a nursing facility for COPD and O2 desaturation. Since we have went off keto due to financial reasons, she's been getting worse! I pray that I get back on my feet SOON.
Sixty-one years old, 6ft, I had 160lbs to lose to look like anormal human being again. Seventeen weeks into keto, 41lbs+ lost and I can climb several flights of stairs without a care or concern in the world! Taking several supplements to help with my type II diabetes. I'm still experimenting with the diet, supplements and intermittent fasting but so far I feel great!
I've been on a keto/carnivore diet and fasting for 6 months and it has been simply amazing for my lungs and COPD. I can walk up hills again. It's still a bit of a struggle but I can actually do it!!! Thank you for being brave enough to say this stuff out loud!!!
This is actually true. I have been on a ketovore diet since February and noticed I am not as short of breath as I used to be. I was prescribed Symbicort and did not take the inhaler AT ALL! Reason being is, it causes weight gain from researching but I was already on my diet. I thought losing 30 lbs might have had something to not being so short of breath. Oh I also quit smoking in Oct 2020 so that might have helped also. I am 66 yrs old.
This really gives me my hope back . I have COPD and it's been very hard the last five years . Have been on keto for 14 days but want to go all in on carnivore. Thank you ❤❤❤
This is great timing! I found this out for myself this summer. I had elevated liver enzymes in January and, in fact, was referred to a specialist. On my own (after seeing some of your videos) I started a low-carb/high protein and fat diet. My LE improved a great deal and I lost 25 lbs. But another benefit was that my adult-onset asthma (I am 62) improved immensely! I no longer had coughing or difficulty breathing. It was great! I had to hike 3 miles for my son's wedding and was able to do so with no real problem! But they are vegan and so my diet changed drastically for a week. I began to notice the breathing problems come back slowly and weight on the stomach start creeping back. So I realized it was my "keto" diet that had made the difference. When I first had elevated LE, the doctor gave me information on a diet quite different than the one I learned from you. I went with the keto-type diet instead and it was the right decision for me! THANKS!
I have COPD emfysema that goes faster bad then good. So I found and see your video and I am already happy. The doctor here say you must eat healthy maybe diet but not saying what for diet this is Portugal to get a appointment by a long specialist on urgent way takes at least 1 year, my next meeting is on 16 October 2025. Also get some lung cleansing not saying what, thank God I was a nurse in Holland now on pension. I gonna order the supplements and start to do the keto diet. Low carb diet. Here in Portugal they only take ct scan and bronchoscopies and that is it I have 3 inhalers daily and cortisonen and prednison once in the two months. They give me 5 years to live and I want at least 25 years more. Thank you for this very important information for all of us that lives all our live already with COPD. God bless you!

THANK YOU FOR COVERING THIS!!!!!! FINALLY someone has addressed this issue!!!! I have genetic emphysema COPD I'm missing the alpha one protein in my dna. NO my doctor hasn't suggested any diet with me! No one ever answers my questions!!! Especially with being on steroids and inhaled glucocorticoids!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!
I am a pulmonary NP, I try my best to educate patients about low carb, high fat diet as I am following that myself. Not going to lie it’s very challenging to convince them to do so.
i was diagnosed with chronic bronchitis a couple of years ago. Always had respiratory issues, phlegm, a lot of coughing and easily fell ill during cold outbreaks. the symptoms decreased when i went keto a couple of years ago, but since going carnivore i haven't felt a single symptom of it. It's magical in a way. and my pollen allergy completely went away!? didn't feel anything this year.
I can vouch for what you’re saying Doc my oxygen absorption level on my last doctor visit blew me away I knew my labs had improved, and all that other had improved that I didn’t expect it to have any effect on my COPD whatsoever so that really blew me away
My husband has COPD symptoms. It is getting worse with age. He quit smoking 10 years ago. He is going to try keto and then go carnivore. He has horrible pollen allergies. I have autoimmune and also want to try it. Our biggest issue is stress eating carbs or when were dysregulated. Working on mental health is important to be successful.
On behalf of your million and a half subscribers and probably millions of others getting the knowledge you so freely share, I want to say a great big giant THANK YOU and God bless you Dr Berry for everything you do👍🏼💯❤️
Thanks so much for this information, no one ever told me about the diet having anything to do with our breathing problems, my husband and I suffer from copd disease, I just know that this diet will help us, God bless you! 🙏
I was diagnoised in 1998 as allergic to gluten. Since eating carnivore, I'm off both inhalors so I eat very few or no plants. I now do crossfit, 4-5 days a week without using any inhalors. I never smoked.
Dr Berry, I have been watching your u tube most of the night and reading almost all comments. I am 70, in a lot of hip pain. As it is now. I need surgery to be able to walk. I have chronic asthma and emphysema. Obviously, note, as my knowledge just just new, I haven't started yet. However, I think you have just given me my life back. Thank you. London UK
I have severe copd my breath has been a problem for years. Since i started keto (healthy kete modérate protein plus lots of salad + brocoli + avocado ) it has been a life changer. I could not even take stairs up 1 floor … now i can go up much more. I am going to try frequent fasts next step. Read that many 3-day fast could trigger stem cells. Gives me hope to try to get better. Also taking lately anatto (tocotrienols) and looking at ways to help mithochondria. Thank you for this message it is what inthpught from blind experience. Feels good to hear a confirmation. I don’t take melatonin i feel it depresses my lungs iam a bit afraid of it
thank you so much i have COPD lost a lot of weight using omad and 2 lemons squeezed into sparkling water my breathing and distance I walked improved a lot yet when I saw my consultant the first thing she asked was why have I lost all this weight 50lb was I ill when I said it was all down to omad and why had she or any doctor told me losing weight stop drinking all the bad drinks would improve my breathing and health she had no answer for me and changed the subject good old NHS
have been mostly carnivore for a year - saw my lung dr - and did the breathing test - he said it was better than last year ... oxygen now 98 % .. off all meds for it and asthma since 2003
We are very lucky to have the internet and UA-cam for a vast education on almost anything today. But you do have to be smart enough to weed out the schmuck's though..
@@LauraB.335 sorry for your loss. My wife's health was failing from a poor diet, lack of exercise, lack of sleep, depression from a horrific childhood. She contracted CoVid in January and never stood a chance.
Nope. My doctor believes that meds fix all and losing weight is "eating 1200 calories in moderation and mostly carbs" which is one reason why I want to get to my goal before seeing her again. While I still get asthma attacks because of my allergies to my cats and the fires that forever burn here in California, after being mostly carnivore I no longer need steroids for my asthma and I only replace my emergency inhaler once every couple of months instead of twice per month. Vitamin D3 seems to help as well. The daily inhaler was raising my blood sugar, which she doesn't believe either. It's good to be in the know.
Good for you! Carb is not the ideal diet. The US food pyramid is a scam. Your dr. has been conditioned and trained by the medical system that she works for, so it’s no surprise what she believes and says.
@@kittykills5854 I wish but with my budget and insurance I’m pretty stuck and all the others hate beef or are vegetarian. I just use mine to get the ok on tests and real emergencies.
@@splatterdaynightmares I share your pain. I had a really great doctor about 10 years ago, but he left his practice to teach at a university. I haven't been able to find a good doctor since. About a year and half ago I was about 20 pounds overweight and the doctor tried to prescribe me weight loss pills about 3 times during a 10 minute conversation, even after I told her "no" the first time she mentioned it. I was also hitting the gym 3-4 times per week for 30 minutes of weight lifting and 45 minutes of cardio and had no medical issues, so I felt her repeated recommendation that I shove shiny new weight loss pills down my throat to lose 20 lbs. when I was otherwise healthy and in good shape to be especially egregious.
Thanks you for being a physician and sharing all that you do. A great many doctors might take a lesson from you on helping patients, about care. The care seems to be missing. Thank you.
My sister suffers from very bad asthma for literally half of the year starting about now. It is so so painful to see her go through the pain. I have sent her this video. I hope ahe takes action because so far the meds they are giving her arent doing what needs to be done.
This is good information. MY partner has COPD but got it from Pulmonary embolism lung scarring. He has about 50% lung capacity. He didn't get COPD from inflammation by smoking but he was a high carb guy before we started intermittent fasting and now the carnivore diet so his inflammation is reducing. I would love to see him be able to live longer before the COPD gets progressively worse.
I had been on seritide for 5yrs until I started doing low carb diet due to diabetes. This has also helped me in COPD symptoms to the point where I rarely take seritide anymore.
My grandfather died of this in a nursing home where he and my grandmother, who later died of dementia, basically subsisted on mediocre restaurant food for the rest of their lives.
@Attmay So true! I work in a nursing home and the food is so high in carbs bc it's cheap. Also ...no good oils so that is contributing to terrible inflammation in our elderly 😢
Well if the restaurant food was mediocre as you say, you had to take your grandfather to him to feed him well not to sit and die in the asylum like a dog and then you want to inherit shame
@@carriekassick7311 NAC is an amino acid. People say it's good to protect you against covid and helps repair many things but I bought it primarily to loosen up mucus. Amazon and other stores recently stopped selling it but you can still get it at iherb and other stores.
Also reference James Nestor’s book Breath, a look at mouth breathing vs. Nose breathing and how this influences the respiratory system and so much more.
I have extreme anxiety my wife has breathing problems doc said she has a touch of copd well not sure what that is but starting tomorrow she will be on that diet if not for me for our grandkids who she adores and it might help me to feel better to I already at peace with this info for sure thank you so much doctor
I really worry about Colon cancer because of eating meat… I hear so much of it in the vegan world, Raw world…I’m on a constant search for good health… People think I’m nuts but I’ve been in pain for 20 years and I have tried so many different things… Thank you for all you do blessings
Amen to KETO Dieting! I was diagnosed 2 years ago. Struggled with all the usual stuff and Dr never said much about diet. But I found out 4 myself symptoms dry up dramatically and energy to work with increased - So absolutely Diet is a KEY
I don't have,but I just watch everything you put out there in case I need to know! Never know who might need me to know this!💕Thanks for all you and your beautiful lady do to keep us in the know!
I thought my asthma and bronchial symptoms were improving because I've been doing breathing exercises and humming. I started doing those about the same time that I began doing lower carb/higher fat diet but maybe I'm going to try and focus more on keto/carnivore. By the way thanks Dr. Berry for getting me to not be afraid of salt, my energy levels love you for that.
My pulmologist said there’s no such thing as breathing exercise to improve my moderate copd..only confirmed copd 8 months ago. Rx Respimate inhaler has worked so well..noticed big improvement just 5 months…maybe he’s right 🤷♀️
Keto (now Carnivore) resolved my chronic bronchitis in a year. I used to have at least one serious infection a year, but I’ve not had it in the past 6 years!
Stay off sugar totally for 3 days and your tinnitus stops completely. Then....after 3 days eat a piece of candy. You will instantly have severe ringing in your ears. And you are totally correct about COPD. Quit sugar totally for even 2 days and your breathing is 100% there. Then....eat a piece of candy and I immediately started wheezing. I swear to God it is an absolute fact about sugar.
Have had slight COPD for a couple of years and found that reducing carbs has helped me. Just watched this video and it confirms what has happened to me, sort of self satisfying 😊
COPD and started ketovore in November because of type 2. It's reversed my diabetes and I've been able to turn my concentrator from 3 to 1. And starting to go without a few hours a day now.
I grow ginseng and I make tea from dried stems by clipping my plant tops. I put it in tea bags and make tea like making regular tea. It has a really calming and relaxing effect within an hour. Not the greatest of tastes. I know you are talking about the root, but I sort of stumbled on to how the tops effect a person. Or myself anyways. I will be clipping my tops either today or tomorrow as it is my way of hiding the root from ginseng hunters. August 1 being first day of ginseng season here in my part of Arkansas. Thanks!
Thank you, Dr Berry for this enlightening video. I have COPD and use a prescribed inhaler. I was wondering why I was having fewer breathing episodes lately. You gave me the answer. I have reduced my carb intake lately and for the last month I have taking Melatonin at bedtime.
Thanks Doc ! I have had COPD, asthma and chronic bronchitis for 13 years 🙄. My pulmonary care and cardiac doctors do not believe in nutrition your food as your medicine. Thank You
I have COPD and can NOT use an inhaler due to Tachycardia so my Dr. has not prescribed any medication or recommended any diets to relieve symptoms. Thank you for this information. I'm going to try all of your suggestions.
Dr. Ken, can you please make video about Serrapeptase. I use it last 4 years, no pains, no inflammation, my C reactive protein is 0.5 I am 70. In Europe we use it over 50 years in prescription firm I live in North America, so I use higher doses as a nutritional supplement. No conditions no medications Over the years I resolved with Serrapeptase sinuses post nasal drip, plantar fasciitis, hemorrhoids...
I think it works! I've. gone keto low carb, no sugar and green tea once a day and have cut my inhalers from twice a day to once a day and sometimes I forget👍
Thank You so much Dr. Berry you are a true blessing. My sister has had a serious breathing problem since last Oct 2020, she has to wear a mask at work for 10 hours a day and now she can't walk without wheezing. Her doctor has taken 6 months to finally tell her that she has reactive airway disease, Eating Keto somedays and Carnovior most days has greatly helped my breathing over the last year (I have seasonal asthma ) But I am going to send this video to her I pray that she will finally listen and give Keto a real try. God Bless you.
I have COPD and had a difficult time during the recent Australian bush fires. I wasn't on keto then. Chinese doctors also told me to stop drinking cow's milk. I can now hear the clock beside the bed ticking. So I would recommend keto + no dairy (at least no milk)
Shared in my Group The KETO Nordic Tribe - and on our page KETO Niordic Living - so important Thank you . We have been following your channel for a couple a years - have read your book and are eternal grateful for your knowledge.
Forever grateful for you sharing this info. I have a form of COPD called B.O.O.P. and in addition to eating low carb, taking NAC, ashwagandha and melatonin I’m going to look into ginseng.
I am an Alpha - zz chromosome defic. I have emphysema and about so I am going to try carnivore /keto diet ..many thanks for this great information! Julie
Have you heard of the buteyko breathing method? It states that by holding breath builds up CO2 and therefore allows the O2 molecule to break away from hemoglobin. Without CO2 the O2 would remain on hemoglobin and not be transferred into the cells.
It would also help if they quit smoking.. my husband has it and is smoking 🚬 more now since being diagnosed. He says he wants to enjoy his life while he can. Same with his alcohol consumption. 🍸 And he refuses to change his diet. All his food is carbs and a lot. It's so sad.
I am carnivor now 4 months, I have allergic asthma. Started the diet cause I have loads of food allergies as well. The asthma didn't worsen as much but a month ago I got diagnosed with hiatal hernia, the doc basically confirmed that it is why it did not really get beter. Asthma medication aggrevates the hernia symptoms as well as the PPI'S they gave me. I feel stuck in this situation.
I wish we could post before and now pictures on this feed, I’m down a total of 70 lbs after 3 Years Doing Keto with Dr. Berry and Now Carnivore and Killing this New Life’s Journey ❤️ 🥩🥩🥩🥩

I'm so glad you have found bona fide research supporting this theory. I eat beef, eggs, butter and water ONLY, 2mad and I'm fit as a fiddle at 73 years young!

I have COPD. I started keto about a month ago. I've seen a significant improvement in my symptoms. My friend has a very steep hill leading to her front door. I climbed it yesterday for the first time since keto OMG!! I climbed the hill in one go. I was very slightly breathless. Before keto, I had to stop twice on the way up the hill and by the time I reached the top I was very breathless..almost to the point of passing out. My theoretical understanding of keto is now proving itself in the real world. And I've lost 15 pounds. KETO 👍👍

A *drastic* improvement in my COPD. I can walk for *MILES* without getting breathless. (Also lost 70 1lb of fat).
Thank you so much. My mom has this condition “ she can’t even climb like 10 stairs without almost passing out . I pray this diet helps her.

The very best of luck to you, Donna 😊
My pulmonary doctor told his intern that my case (Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension) was the best managed case he has ever seen. Keto works.
Thank you Dr! My husband died of copd 4 years ago. He would never have changed his diet or sweet tooth but I hope others hearing this will.
Thank you for watching and sharing this video. So sorry for your loss
My heart aches for you .. very sorry to hear about your husband my father also has COPD .. just wondering how long did he suffer with this condition?
@@haloSrising it was years but its sneaky because in summer he'd feel he'd live another 5yrs and in winter just got worse and we basically live at the hospital. I guess it depends on each individual.
Keto had given me back my life in many ways. I can't believe what I can do some days
@@miriam2909 Hello, first: I'm very sorry for your lost.. I have End Stage COPD, diagnosed 2014.. And I was feeling the same way as your Husband. A little bit better in the summer. But the winter was something else. The past 2 - 1/2 years have been some of the hardest times ever. And the last 14 to 15 months, I've been on my back, unable to breathe and unable to move.. I'm 59 years old, tiring 60 in October.. I'm getting ready to start this Diet and see what happens.. At this point, I'm willing to try anything. I really want to be able to see my Grandchildren grow up a little bit longer.. My Blessings to you , prayers for you to be able to have a wonderful long life.🙏❤️

I am sooo happy to see this video! I am a respiratory therapist and when I was in school I learned that carbohydrates create CO2 and I never understood why nobody recommended low carb/keto. I’ve never heard anyone say this!
If you have HBP be careful of ginseng
Thank you
@@tack131 Dr Eric berg also says that keeping carbs low reduces carbon dioxide and helps breathing
@@tack131 makes so much sense!
I just seen a pulmonary sleep Dr . I mentioned keto to her and she acted like it was the devil turning your blood acid . It makes me sad so many of her patients could benefit tremendously from keto or carnivore but she’s worried they are gonna have acidic blood
🙋♀️ Chronic respiratory infections, severe year-round allergies, more medications than I could count, even had croup in my 30s! Started clean keto 6 years ago, haven't been sick a single time, and now take zero medications. I don't even have seasonal allergies anymore!
That is an awesome testimony! Thank you for sharing! How long did it take you to get there? I've been on it for around 4 months and am still fighting chronic bronchitis almost daily if I don't take antibacterial supps every day!
Awesome! Same deal for me. Keto diet has yielded huge benefits including no more allergies! No more crappy expensive allergy pills. I'm out in parks and woods all the time now problem free and feeling strong.
@@jenisecoronado5555 try a table spoon of manukah honey 🍯 when you first wake up in the morning and let it soak in for about 15 minutes before eating or drinking anything. I got mine at Costco for $31 , but so worth it, you’ll start feeling a difference in a week, definitely by week 2
@@jenisecoronado5555 for me, improvement started almost immediately with total reversal of illness within six months. Best wishes!!
I’m 61 years old and carnivore. I have more energy and strength and overall health than I did when I was 30. And I have always been very athletic.
I was recently hospitalised due to an asthma attack, and when I told the lung doctor that sugary foods are one of the things which exacerbate my asthma, she pretty much dismissed the possibility. She gave me a stronger inhaler but it was too harsh on my lungs, so I have gone back to using my less powerful one.
As someone who suffers from chronic inflammation, the greatest exacerbation, and indeed, what I believe to be the main cause, is a lifelong terrible sleeping pattern. Whenever I sleep poorly or work nights my symptoms (which include nasal polyps) are greatly worsened, and whenever I sleep good or work days my symptoms greatly improve. Hopefully, healthy sleep, keto, and intermittent fasting can resolve my ailments and get me off the inhalers...
Update?
Was on inhalers for 20 years - for asthma. Coughed ALL the time. People thought I was Typhoid Mary. So embarrassing! Started keto, and about 30 days in, I just stopped coughing. Life changing! Thank you!
How's it going? Update?
How is your journey going?

Hi there first of all congratulations, may I ask what type of psoriasis did you have, I get scalp psoriasis and have tried many shampoos but none have made much of a difference, I've also just been diagnosed with adhd I'm not on meds for that. Cheers
I have early COPD, but yeah. This year has been bad as I was constantly sick and always coughing. Eventually antibiotics came into play as the fluid build up got infected. Doc gave me an inhaler and also some pills to help dry things up at night. Prior to, I had been taking Benadryl to reduce the night time choking, basically.
The round of antibiotics did their job but I was still coughing tremendously. I got my blood panel back and WhoA super duper diabetic. I knew what to do. I threw myself into ketogenesis and as soon as I was at that point, the night time coughing stopped and I set the meds aside. Within a week all my coughing was gone even though it has taken longer to bring my blood sugar down. One of the symptoms of diabetes is a particular type of fluid build up in the lungs. The sputum from this has a distinct signature. I wasn’t sick from the COPD as much as I was from the diabetes! The fluid reduction in the very beginning did the trick.
I’m on carnivore and I’m staying on it!
i was diagnosed with COPD three years ago. i've been keto for nearly 11 months and have noticed an improvment in my breathing. i just put this down to losing weight never even entered my head that it was helping with the inflamtion in my lungs as it has in the rest of my body. really informative video.
I am so glad you figured this out on your own. Please take a moment to share this video with friends who suffer from COPD
I wish I found this sooner. My Mom is in a nursing facility for COPD and O2 desaturation. Since we have went off keto due to financial reasons, she's been getting worse! I pray that I get back on my feet SOON.
Sixty-one years old, 6ft, I had 160lbs to lose to look like anormal human being again.
Seventeen weeks into keto, 41lbs+ lost and I can climb several flights of stairs without a care or concern in the world! Taking several supplements to help with my type II diabetes. I'm still experimenting with the diet, supplements and intermittent fasting but so far I feel great!
I've been on a keto/carnivore diet and fasting for 6 months and it has been simply amazing for my lungs and COPD. I can walk up hills again. It's still a bit of a struggle but I can actually do it!!! Thank you for being brave enough to say this stuff out loud!!!
This is actually true. I have been on a ketovore diet since February and noticed I am not as short of breath as I used to be. I was prescribed Symbicort and did not take the inhaler AT ALL! Reason being is, it causes weight gain from researching but I was already on my diet. I thought losing 30 lbs might have had something to not being so short of breath. Oh I also quit smoking in Oct 2020 so that might have helped also. I am 66 yrs old.
This really gives me my hope back . I have COPD and it's been very hard the last five years . Have been on keto for 14 days but want to go all in on carnivore. Thank you ❤❤❤
Any updates
@beritopera1 how is it going?
My asthma symptoms have significantly reduced on low carb diet! No more inhalers. My doctor is pleased.
This is great timing! I found this out for myself this summer. I had elevated liver enzymes in January and, in fact, was referred to a specialist. On my own (after seeing some of your videos) I started a low-carb/high protein and fat diet. My LE improved a great deal and I lost 25 lbs. But another benefit was that my adult-onset asthma (I am 62) improved immensely! I no longer had coughing or difficulty breathing. It was great! I had to hike 3 miles for my son's wedding and was able to do so with no real problem! But they are vegan and so my diet changed drastically for a week. I began to notice the breathing problems come back slowly and weight on the stomach start creeping back. So I realized it was my "keto" diet that had made the difference.
When I first had elevated LE, the doctor gave me information on a diet quite different than the one I learned from you. I went with the keto-type diet instead and it was the right decision for me! THANKS!
Dr. Berry.....please keep doing what you're doing. Freaking amazing - in a medical world littered with uneducated MDs. Yup, you're a light.
Well, if they teach you how do they live?
I have COPD emfysema that goes faster bad then good. So I found and see your video and I am already happy. The doctor here say you must eat healthy maybe diet but not saying what for diet this is Portugal to get a appointment by a long specialist on urgent way takes at least 1 year, my next meeting is on 16 October 2025. Also get some lung cleansing not saying what, thank God I was a nurse in Holland now on pension. I gonna order the supplements and start to do the keto diet. Low carb diet. Here in Portugal they only take ct scan and bronchoscopies and that is it I have 3 inhalers daily and cortisonen and prednison once in the two months. They give me 5 years to live and I want at least 25 years more. Thank you for this very important information for all of us that lives all our live already with COPD. God bless you!

Nice to see some pulmonary drs think keto is not going to kill you .mine acted all crazy when i mentioned keto
i was diagnosed with chronic bronchitis a couple of years ago. Always had respiratory issues, phlegm, a lot of coughing and easily fell ill during cold outbreaks.
the symptoms decreased when i went keto a couple of years ago, but since going carnivore i haven't felt a single symptom of it. It's magical in a way. and my pollen allergy completely went away!? didn't feel anything this year.
I have the same issues, is it still going well for you?
I can vouch for what you’re saying Doc my oxygen absorption level on my last doctor visit blew me away I knew my labs had improved, and all that other had improved that I didn’t expect it to have any effect on my COPD whatsoever so that really blew me away
My husband has COPD symptoms. It is getting worse with age. He quit smoking 10 years ago. He is going to try keto and then go carnivore. He has horrible pollen allergies. I have autoimmune and also want to try it. Our biggest issue is stress eating carbs or when were dysregulated. Working on mental health is important to be successful.
Any updates on symptoms
On behalf of your million and a half subscribers and probably millions of others getting the knowledge you so freely share, I want to say a great big giant THANK YOU and God bless you Dr Berry for everything you do👍🏼💯❤️
Thanks so much for this information, no one ever told me about the diet having anything to do with our breathing problems, my husband and I suffer from copd disease, I just know that this diet will help us, God bless you! 🙏
I was diagnoised in 1998 as allergic to gluten. Since eating carnivore, I'm off both inhalors so I eat very few or no plants. I now do crossfit, 4-5 days a week without using any inhalors. I never smoked.

Thank you.

I have severe copd my breath has been a problem for years. Since i started keto (healthy kete modérate protein plus lots of salad + brocoli + avocado ) it has been a life changer. I could not even take stairs up 1 floor … now i can go up much more. I am going to try frequent fasts next step. Read that many 3-day fast could trigger stem cells. Gives me hope to try to get better. Also taking lately anatto (tocotrienols) and looking at ways to help mithochondria. Thank you for this message it is what inthpught from blind experience. Feels good to hear a confirmation. I don’t take melatonin i feel it depresses my lungs iam a bit afraid of it
thank you so much i have COPD lost a lot of weight using omad and 2 lemons squeezed into sparkling water my breathing and distance I walked improved a lot yet when I saw my consultant the first thing she asked was why have I lost all this weight 50lb was I ill when I said it was all down to omad and why had she or any doctor told me losing weight stop drinking all the bad drinks would improve my breathing and health she had no answer for me and changed the subject good old NHS
have been mostly carnivore for a year - saw my lung dr - and did the breathing test - he said it was better than last year ... oxygen now 98 % .. off all meds for it and asthma since 2003
I wish I had known this when my parents were alive.
Yeah, we've all lost people we wish we coulda shared this with.
We are very lucky to have the internet and UA-cam for a vast education on almost anything today. But you do have to be smart enough to weed out the schmuck's though..

@@LauraB.335 sorry for your loss. My wife's health was failing from a poor diet, lack of exercise, lack of sleep, depression from a horrific childhood. She contracted CoVid in January and never stood a chance.
I'm sorry for your loss
Ronnie’s lung doctor has him taking NAC….we are on Keto and appreciate all you do!!!!
Nope. My doctor believes that meds fix all and losing weight is "eating 1200 calories in moderation and mostly carbs" which is one reason why I want to get to my goal before seeing her again. While I still get asthma attacks because of my allergies to my cats and the fires that forever burn here in California, after being mostly carnivore I no longer need steroids for my asthma and I only replace my emergency inhaler once every couple of months instead of twice per month. Vitamin D3 seems to help as well. The daily inhaler was raising my blood sugar, which she doesn't believe either. It's good to be in the know.
Good for you! Carb is not the ideal diet. The US food pyramid is a scam. Your dr. has been conditioned and trained by the medical system that she works for, so it’s no surprise what she believes and says.
Get you a new more better dr 😉
@@kittykills5854 I wish but with my budget and insurance I’m pretty stuck and all the others hate beef or are vegetarian. I just use mine to get the ok on tests and real emergencies.
@@splatterdaynightmares I share your pain. I had a really great doctor about 10 years ago, but he left his practice to teach at a university. I haven't been able to find a good doctor since. About a year and half ago I was about 20 pounds overweight and the doctor tried to prescribe me weight loss pills about 3 times during a 10 minute conversation, even after I told her "no" the first time she mentioned it. I was also hitting the gym 3-4 times per week for 30 minutes of weight lifting and 45 minutes of cardio and had no medical issues, so I felt her repeated recommendation that I shove shiny new weight loss pills down my throat to lose 20 lbs. when I was otherwise healthy and in good shape to be especially egregious.
@Ryan b...you know she's getting some type of bennies for pushing those pills.....
Grateful to find this video for my husband! We will try your recommendations. Thank you!!
As an asthmatic/COPD doctor you are definitely correct on diet watch.
Thanks you for being a physician and sharing all that you do. A great many doctors might take a lesson from you on helping patients, about care. The care seems to be missing. Thank you.
My sister suffers from very bad asthma for literally half of the year starting about now. It is so so painful to see her go through the pain. I have sent her this video. I hope ahe takes action because so far the meds they are giving her arent doing what needs to be done.
This is true a low carb diet will help some people breathing.
This is good information. MY partner has COPD but got it from Pulmonary embolism lung scarring. He has about 50% lung capacity. He didn't get COPD from inflammation by smoking but he was a high carb guy before we started intermittent fasting and now the carnivore diet so his inflammation is reducing. I would love to see him be able to live longer before the COPD gets progressively worse.
On his radio program, Dr. Asa Andrews has mentioned that taurine can be helpful.
I had been on seritide for 5yrs until I started doing low carb diet due to diabetes. This has also helped me in COPD symptoms to the point where I rarely take seritide anymore.
Great to hear so many examples of the benefits of low carb diets on breathing conditions!
My grandfather died of this in a nursing home where he and my grandmother, who later died of dementia, basically subsisted on mediocre restaurant food for the rest of their lives.
@Attmay So true! I work in a nursing home and the food is so high in carbs bc it's cheap. Also ...no good oils so that is contributing to terrible inflammation in our elderly 😢
I'm just wondering why were your grandparents in care homes ? Could you not take them in or at least bring them food while they ate restaurant food?
Well if the restaurant food was mediocre as you say, you had to take your grandfather to him to feed him well not to sit and die in the asylum like a dog and then you want to inherit shame
Thank doc:) I’ve always been very susceptible to lung infections since I was born
I've been taking NAC for about 2 weeks and it loosens mucus really well
What is NAC?
I take NAC with vitamin C ..it’s works within couple of days for mucus
@@carriekassick7311 NAC is an amino acid. People say it's good to protect you against covid and helps repair many things but I bought it primarily to loosen up mucus.
Amazon and other stores recently stopped selling it but you can still get it at iherb and other stores.
You can add zinc with that I just watch a video about those two together
Also reference James Nestor’s book Breath, a look at mouth breathing vs. Nose breathing and how this influences the respiratory system and so much more.
I have extreme anxiety my wife has breathing problems doc said she has a touch of copd well not sure what that is but starting tomorrow she will be on that diet if not for me for our grandkids who she adores and it might help me to feel better to I already at peace with this info for sure thank you so much doctor
I'm tired of educating my doctor. He should be educating me.
I really worry about Colon cancer because of eating meat… I hear so much of it in the vegan world, Raw world…I’m on a constant search for good health… People think I’m nuts but I’ve been in pain for 20 years and I have tried so many different things… Thank you for all you do blessings
Have you watched my video about the risk of cancer from eating red meat? You should check it out
It mostly comes from the sh&ts. Don’t get any!
How about Food Grade H2O2 for COPD?
I discovered the diet connection a few years ago when I went on a low carb diet to lose weight.
The health benefits from changing to a low carb diet on many conditions - absolutely life changing
Amen to KETO Dieting! I was diagnosed 2 years ago. Struggled with all the usual stuff and Dr never said much about diet. But I found out 4 myself symptoms dry up dramatically and energy to work with increased - So absolutely Diet is a KEY
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video ! None of the doctors I have seen for my COPD have given me such useful information !
Thank you, I really appreciate the way you research and explain everything. Felt like this video was for me.
I don't have,but I just watch everything you put out there in case I need to know! Never know who might need me to know this!💕Thanks for all you and your beautiful lady do to keep us in the know!
I love your attitude. I bet you have a friend or two with COPD who could benefit greatly from this information
I thought my asthma and bronchial symptoms were improving because I've been doing breathing exercises and humming. I started doing those about the same time that I began doing lower carb/higher fat diet but maybe I'm going to try and focus more on keto/carnivore. By the way thanks Dr. Berry for getting me to not be afraid of salt, my energy levels love you for that.
what breathing exercises and humming have worked for you?
Chanting, Humming and Meditation do help
My pulmologist said there’s no such thing as breathing exercise to improve my moderate copd..only confirmed copd 8 months ago. Rx Respimate inhaler has worked so well..noticed big improvement just 5 months…maybe he’s right 🤷♀️
Keto (now Carnivore) resolved my chronic bronchitis in a year. I used to have at least one serious infection a year, but I’ve not had it in the past 6 years!
Eliminating abdominal obesity also helps with breathing from a mechanical perspective. Keto/carnivore is a win-win-win when it comes to breathing.

Stay off sugar totally for 3 days and your tinnitus stops completely. Then....after 3 days eat a piece of candy. You will instantly have severe ringing in your ears. And you are totally correct about COPD. Quit sugar totally for even 2 days and your breathing is 100% there. Then....eat a piece of candy and I immediately started wheezing. I swear to God it is an absolute fact about sugar.
Sugar is poison
Sugar and sweets makes me cough...when I am off sugar there is a big big difference
add to that grains...just as bad as sugar regarding inflamation.
Beer and alcohol as well. Salt could be the culprit too in sensitive individuals,
Thank you for that I have copd and my breathing does seem better when I stay away from carbs I just never connected it.
I am so glad you have figured this out. Please share this video with any of your friends who also suffer from COPD
Have had slight COPD for a couple of years and found that reducing carbs has helped me. Just watched this video and it confirms what has happened to me, sort of self satisfying 😊
COPD and started ketovore in November because of type 2. It's reversed my diabetes and I've been able to turn my concentrator from 3 to 1. And starting to go without a few hours a day now.

Diet plays a crucial part in wellness and preventing health problems like COPD; thanks for sharing these insights.
I grow ginseng and I make tea from dried stems by clipping my plant tops. I put it in tea bags and make tea like making regular tea. It has a really calming and relaxing effect within an hour. Not the greatest of tastes. I know you are talking about the root, but I sort of stumbled on to how the tops effect a person. Or myself anyways. I will be clipping my tops either today or tomorrow as it is my way of hiding the root from ginseng hunters. August 1 being first day of ginseng season here in my part of Arkansas. Thanks!
Thank you, Dr Berry for this enlightening video. I have COPD and use a prescribed inhaler. I was wondering why I was having fewer breathing episodes lately. You gave me the answer. I have reduced my carb intake lately and for the last month I have taking Melatonin at bedtime.
Sugar is white death and so is flour. I never really get sick anymore but a few times I used NAC to help withe getting the lung nasties out.
So sad that the FDA moved NAC to prescription only now. ☹️
@@mikeg5413 Walmart, Thorne and other places are still selling it although I see a bit of a price hike. Good Luck

Thank You so much Dr. Berry you are a true blessing. My sister has had a serious breathing problem since last Oct 2020, she has to wear a mask at work for 10 hours a day and now she can't walk without wheezing. Her doctor has taken 6 months to finally tell her that she has reactive airway disease, Eating Keto somedays and Carnovior most days has greatly helped my breathing over the last year (I have seasonal asthma ) But I am going to send this video to her I pray that she will finally listen and give Keto a real try.

Have you heard of the buteyko breathing method? It states that by holding breath builds up CO2 and therefore allows the O2 molecule to break away from hemoglobin. Without CO2 the O2 would remain on hemoglobin and not be transferred into the cells.
It would also help if they quit smoking.. my husband has it and is smoking 🚬 more now since being diagnosed. He says he wants to enjoy his life while he can. Same with his alcohol consumption. 🍸
And he refuses to change his diet. All his food is carbs and a lot. It's so sad.

That's all true, but I'm still surprised that you didn't mention NAC. NAC liquefies the thick mucus so that it can be coughed out much better.
Thankyou .......good life 😊

I am carnivor now 4 months, I have allergic asthma. Started the diet cause I have loads of food allergies as well. The asthma didn't worsen as much but a month ago I got diagnosed with hiatal hernia, the doc basically confirmed that it is why it did not really get beter. Asthma medication aggrevates the hernia symptoms as well as the PPI'S they gave me. I feel stuck in this situation.
It seems more likely to be a personality type than a food allergy if you have numerous food allergies.
