I have Dry Eye, and was advised to take omega 3 and flaxseed oils daily. when i stopped my regimen, my eyes became dry again. It has resolved now that ive resumed taking omega 3/flax. Note, i am 42, have a clean diet, exercise moderately every day. Just wanted to share what works for me. We are our own best barometers, and i also value what Dr. Mindy is sharing.
I had dry eyes for 11 years Found that eating a carnivore diet high in fat has helped my eyes feel almost normal! I use cod liver oil in winter just for the A and D3. If you suffer from dry eyes getting inflamation down by eating carnivore or ketovore will help you. Not a quick fit but over time your symptons should decrease.
Find a vitamin D3 combined with K-2 , mk7 form of k-2 this will also help keep calcium get to your bones and teeth where it's needed and out of your arteries. Calcification of your arteries leads to heart attack and stroke more so then cholesterol.
My cholesterol and triglycerides were high and by just adding a good quality fish oil it brought back down all of my numbers to normal range. I am a believer of a good fish oil.
That's great. I'm gonna try that, too. My LDL and cholesterol levels were elevated, and my primary didn't suggest anything . The pharmacist said Onega fatty acid could actually raise my levels. My old primary, which I had for many years, always said fish oil. I guess we have to find out ourselves. 😊

My vit D tested low last year. I began supplementing with D3& K2. My mood and energy has noticeably improved! It's well worth getting good vit D3/K2 especially if you have any depression. And who over 50 isn't?
I am a 72 year old healthy, female, who’s had fibromyalgia for the last 35 years. After watching EO nutrition, Dr. Berg and the nerve doctors I started taking benfotiamine and magnesium at the highest recommended dose from EOnutrition, divided between morning and evening. And it is the first time in 35 years that I am almost pain-free. The B1 is fat soluble, so it gets into your cells and it really works to eliminate pain. My pain levels would be between seven and nine and now it is mostly two or three. Every. Single. Day. I can’t believe the difference it has made. So the types of supplements you take does make a difference like Dr. Mindy says.
@@laynebruce4862 if you listen to Elliot at EO nutrition, he’s not a doctor, but I think he’s a PhD who has studied this supplement for years. It is for diabetic neuropathy. If you read the comments, it seems to be helping a lot of people. I started out with 300 mg morning and night then went to 900 and 1200 but I still wasn’t getting any relief with 1200 so I went to the maximum dose of 1500. I noticed relief the very next day. I also take it with about 1500 mg of magnesium. I take half in the morning and half at night. Hope this helps you.
Coffee first thing in the morning and fasting for a long period of time has contributed to my LPRGerd. Caffeine is very bad for Gerd. I knew I had an acidic body but failed to take that into consideration while doing IF. I have since switched to a chicory drink in the morning and then continue to IF. I love how I feel doing IF and I am more energetic and IF keeps my weight in check. I’m 76 and am not on any drugs, which seems to be the minority of people in my age bracket. I have your book. I had complete blood work done by my Naturopath and then know what supplements I need. I control my LPR Gerd with diet and I am eliminating, coffee, alcohol, chocolate, sugar, and a lot of carbs, mint. No need for drugs at all. Thanks for your work Dr. Mindy. Linda
I take Apple cider vinegar bills to over come my GERD. It works like a charm. Once pill at night. I can still enjoy chocolate once in a while and social drinking. No problem.
I actually use ACV mixed with fresh lemon juice, 12 ounces of water before I have my main meal for the day…. Works great. I have actually been in absorbing vitamins and not had any problems with Gerd since I made this simple adjustment. I do try to follow keto, but not strictly I do have a slice of homemade wheat bread twice a week
With so many conflicting opinions out there on everything health, I think Dr Mindy offers the balance I've been looking for. Keep the good work going Doc..
She just offers another conflicting opinion. The fact is, the medical community knows very little about most things, but if they can make money at it they are all in.
I do take Centrum Women 50+ and if I stop, after two weeks, I start to notice a difference in my wellbeing. I’ve unwittingly tested this in the past and even if it’s a placebo effect (which I don’t believe it was), it worked and still works for me. As this is a promotional video, it feels obvious that other brands would be accused of being less than the promoted brand. Not trying to be negative, but if it works and that’s all a person can afford, it feels like a no brainer to use other brands. I also started taking Dr Vegan Gut Works, which has been great for me.
Taking mega food over 55 women's. And mineral fr trace D ( Jarrow) and cod. K2 Mag / potassium Try to eat lots calcium Sardines archives. Filtered water Eat saurkraut and kefir ecer so often I'll reassess all
I took a liquid D3 and my reading was 32. I switched to a gel capsule D3 and my last reading was 106. That's not bad for 75 and liver cancer for the last six years.
Vitamin D3 + K2 is the only supplement I take from the list. Totally worth it. My D levels were usually deficient. I get my levels checked about 2x/year and they’ve been optimal for a couple of years now.
I love whole food nutrition! Learned about 1 a days years ago when the Porta potty man told me he could still see the name on the pills in the bottom of his tanks.
Love your videos. Sadly, if one doesn't live in the States like myself who lives in London, England these are not available to us. Any products such as this that don't have a dedicated UK distributor cost a bomb in import duties from the U.S 😒 If there are any equivalents that are available world-wide then it would be great to hear about them. UA-cam is international so PLEASE lets talk about products that are available internationally. 😄
Feel for you london9372 many friends in same boat with you. Sadly, thinking Dr. Pelz may not know, since she is located in U.S.But there's a lot of great health information & solutions that come out of Germany these days. Many go to study there, from the states. May be a possible resource for you?
Hello I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, love ❤and peace all over the world. I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust so as time goes on it will bring something great for us in the future, hope you don't mind? I'm Engineer Graham Bolt from Nashville Tennessee, where are you from?
Here in Germany I try to grow lots of food myself as a biolohist and restore the microbiome of my garden soil. Soil microorganisms mineralize nutrients with their enzymes.
My rule on multivitamin is that it must be 100% food based, formulated with the correct ingredient ratios and have a slow release coating so it gets past stomach acids and into the small intestines where it can be absorbed. I've been taking Xtend-Life Total Balance for over a decade and it's the real deal. Sadly, high quality multi like this one are quite expensive, but you're doing more harm than good taking cheap synthetic grocery store multivitamins. I take several of the supplements on this list, but I pay close attention to quality, potency and purity.
Make your own probiotics by fermenting all sorts of fruit and vegetables, I make my own fermented lemon drink and sauerkraut with carrots and I am looking into a mixed veggies one too ! Also I take moringa each day for my arthritis but have found it has everything you need in this one wonderful plant so I am growing it but have to grow in a planter that I can bring into the house in the winter , if you live in a warm climate you should grow this plant it’s amazing
@@juvyc7808 I take 2 teaspoons everyday. It is hard to mix, I usually mix it with yogurt or olive oil. It definitely has helped my arthritis, little to no pain.
When we look at studies, we also need to look at WHO commissioned the study, who paid for it and for what purpose. For example there are lots of studies created with the end goal in mind as the priority.
Just ordered the BEAM complete and the kid BEAM minerals for my children. Can’t wait to use these. Also if your enter PELZ at checkout you save 20%, saved $40! Thanks Dr Mindy, I can’t wait to use these. I just got your book, I’m working on balancing my cycle with my fasting. I was going intermittent fasting but I wasn’t syncing it with my shifts throughout my monthly cycle. I started last month, and I noticed during my last period I had almost no cramping, my mood swings were lessened, I wasn’t bloated or retaining hardly any water. So this will be my second month doing this, looking forward to seeing the result by my next period. Still trying to get my rhythm down. But I’m excited to see how my overall health continues to improve. I’m loving the bonus of looking leaner and having more defined muscles and abs! It’s definitely gotten my stomach back to being flat and lean.
I take a bunch of different supplements and then rotate them every month or so. I believe that if you are getting certain vitamins from your food, especially if it is organic or home grown, that many supplements you can leave out. I also, try my best to get the vitamins and minerals I need from my food. And I love all food, so it makes it easier. No food I do not like!
I change probiotic at every cycle 😊 I'm not going to eat 3 kg of sardines a day to get the right dose vitamin D. I used capsules and got to 180 😮 now I'm using drops in mct oil to lower it and keep it stable 😅
The EPA to DHA ratio is what matters in Omega 3's. Hard to get enough EPA from diet alone. EPA helps with inflammation, etc... A blood test can check this as well so it's quantifiable.
I have been taking Beam Minerals for three (3) months now, and I feel awesome! In fact, I was out for a few days and began having leg cramps which are not normal for me, so I know my body loves Beam Minerals.
I was researching about Fulvic Humic and just read that it is not advisable to take it if you have an autoimmune disorder. I have Hashimoto and produce a lot of antibodies in my thyroid. Shall I stay away from it???
@amarildaduraj4171 Finely slice cabbage with a food processor, if possible. Otherwise, finely slice with a knife. Try to make sure that all the bits and pieces are relatively close to the same size, so they ferment evenly. Put the chopped cabbage in a large bowl. Sprinkle with the appropriate amount of salt (use a good salt like Redmonds or Himalayan pink salt) per pound, according to the chart I pasted in right below: Add any herbs or spices (I like fresh, peeled, crushed, whole or minced, garlic, fresh sprigs of dillweed and a little, black, coarsely ground pepper or just a few whole, black peppercorns in the bottom of the jar.) to the bowl and mix in with clean hands or utensils. Let the mixture stand for 15-20 minutes, so the salt can draw the liquid from the cabbage. Pack the mixture (including any liquid) tightly up to the shoulder of the jar, leaving 3-4 inches of head space. Be sure to use a very clean Fido Brand Clamp top jar, if possible. I like to run my jars through the dishwasher on the Sanitize cycle before using them for fermenting. After packing the jar, close them up and let them ferment at room temperature for 6 weeks. The fermenting vegetables will release liquid and gases as good bacteria multiply. Fido brand clamp top jars are self burping, as long as the seals don't get stuck to the glass. So, be sure to check for sticking seals after 6, 12, and 24 hours by gently, but firmly pulling on the tab attached to the seal. You may hear air seeping out when you pull. If you fill the jars too full, the liquid will get on the seal and make it sticky, stopping the self burping action, so be sure to leave enough head room, so you don’t have overflow. -If you can't find Fido brand clamp top jars, you may use clean quart or pint canning jars but the self burping feature is well worth it! You'll need to loosen the lids to burp the mason jars every 6-24 hours (more often in the beginning) for a few days to a week, though, so they don't burst. Within 24 hours, you should see bubbles start to rise to the top. That's a sign that fermentation has begun and pressure will be present. Fido Fermentation is the name of a FB group that is aimed at people who ferment in Fido jars. There are also special airlock jars (Pickl-it, is one good brand) you can use to ferment in. You don't have to worry about burping jars if you use use and airlock type jar. After 6 weeks, open the jars and slowly add in some of the liquid in the jar to your food. Start low and slow and gradually increase the amount over time. It's better to go slowly than, have to take a couple steps back. Depending on your gut health, you may need to start with just a drop to begin with and double that amount every few days. Then, slowly introduce the actual sauerkraut in the same way. Just eat a little, tiny bit to start and increase slowly. Don't be alarmed if you experience some digestive symptoms, like gas, diarrhea, constipation (consider a colon cleanse or an enema if, you're not having a bowel movement every day, though. That means your biggest form of releasing toxins isn't working well and in extreme cases, your body will have to find other places to store the toxins and waste,if it can't remove it from the body.) That's most likely the good bacteria in the sauerkraut killing off bad yeasts and bad bacteria in the gut. If you experience any of these symptoms, simply go back to the last amount where you were symptom free and stick to that amount for a few days to a week before slowly increasing again. You'll want to work up to a cup of fermented veggies or so per day for at least 6 months to a year. You may find that you like them and want to keep them as part of your diet. If you don't care for Sauerkraut, try fermenting carrots and making fermented pickles. One of my favorite ferments is Garlic Dilly Carrots. If you experience severe symptoms, you may want to check out the gut healing GAPS Diet by Dr Natasha Campbell-McBride. You'll want her book, but my favorite resource besides the book is the FAQs at: www.Gapsdiet.com and Www.gaps.me There are also Facebook groups that are super helpful, as well. You can hire a GAPS Certified Practitioner to help guide you. If you go that route, I really like Becky Plottner of Nourishing Plot Blog. I hope something here helps!

Do you know of Dr. Carolyn Dean? She has her own liquid supplements, including minerals and magnesium. She's the author of "The Magnesium Miracle," and she's good friends with Dr. Christianne Northrup, the author of a great book/"bible" on menopause.
I’ve been involved in the supplement industry for over a decade and I can’t say at any point I’ve ever heard anyone use the term synthetic when referring to a supplement product. Are you referring to isolates, mineral compounds, derived? What exactly is a synthetic supplement, in your view?
Nutritional Books written way back in the late 60’s claimed that our soils were depleted of nutrients and minerals. Close to 50 years now. On top of growing vegetables on depleted soil by the time that vegetables and fruits hit your table there is nothing much left in the produce. A multi vitamin is important.
Our pharmacy received multiple inquiries from doctors concerning vitamin D3. Those patients supplementing with D3 in TABLET form were not seeing increases in their D3 blood levels. After switching to D3 in CAPSULE form (with the liquid inside) their blood levels rose as expected.
Absolutely TRUE! I started taking TRACE MINERALS every day and I have the same wonderful results that you mentioned. VERY IMPORTANT! will look into the BEAM's.
Yes! I took trace elements a couple year ago, v good quality liquid one, it’s like a teaspoon a day or something. People get blinded by the big shot vitamins, meanwhile our bodies are also dropping in those teeny tiny trace minerals in our bodies that are incredibly important. I need to reorder and get on it!
I take vitamin d3 1000, and almost every time, my level is 20. I'm gonna recheck soon. Mt old primary thought that is enough to take. I'm starting menopause what supplement helps balance hormones ? Thank you. Love your videos.
To balance hormones during menopause, consider supplements like Vitamin B6, Magnesium, Black Cohosh, Maca Root, Omega-3 Fatty Acids, and Vitamin E. Consult a healthcare provider before starting any new supplements. Lifestyle factors also play a crucial role in hormonal balance.
Hi, J from Liverpool UK! Just getting into fasting like a girl and learn how to do it properly from you book and watching your UA-cam. Enjoying the journey of learning, thanks!
I worked in the Natural Products Industry for many years. Thanks to that experience, I learned a lot about supplements. Also, my husband is an MD, so I’m aware of both sides of the table. I take a high quality food based multivitamin plus a number of other supplements.
For vegans, achieving a ketogenic diet can be challenging due to the carb and animal product restrictions. They can focus on healthy plant-based fats, incorporate low-carb veggies and plant-based proteins, and monitor essential nutrients. Personalized guidance and consulting healthcare professionals are important for both groups.
Thank you. Health care professionals know nothing about this. I found a couple that approval veganism, but they all seem to be up in the air about keto. The only one I know that knows about it is a doctor that I see as a patient and I can’t turn him into my doctor. I guess my question is is it possible to be keto and vegan at the same time. Is there some powder that I can take. I do take OptimalAmino which supposedly delivers 20 g of protein with only 4 cal and is recommended for keto check it out for yourself and it is half the price literally half out of all the other essential amino acids that you can buy . I take it twice a day so my question remains do you think it’s even possible other than what I am doing for Vegan to be keto?
My other question is how to remove plaque in the arteries. I know I have some. Do you believe that if I managed to be keto, Mike and fast at my body would get rid of that plaque?
I just bought primal greens to supplement my nutrition since I am intermittent fasting and eating calories deficit. Now I'm wondering if I chose the wrong suppliment
Yes, if we learned anything these last few years it should be that we should get away from the "it can't hurt" nonsense. I've started low carb plus fasting again this past month (used it years ago but as like goes, I fell away and it shows!). Thank you for the reminder of the power of the 36 hour fast. I've done 2 this week and dropped almost 5 pounds (I'm aware that most of this is water but am also in deep ketosis). I talk about health = wealth quite a bit and I thank you for being a resource that I can send people to!
Hi I start again to do also the IF. But I’m new with the long fasting ( did always the 18 h fast. So last week I wanted to do the 36 h vast. At 6:00 the 36 h ended I was still a sleep so a eat after 44 h 🤷🏻♀️ so I’m not sure if this gives also the same result as 36 h fasting ? Maybe you can help me 🌺
I do best on the 17 hour TRE. I eat meat, fish, fruits and vegetables, but no grains or seed oils. I have had incurable liver cancer for six years now. That puts me in the 0.5 percent of survivers. All you can eat buffet for $3.50 with white sand beaches. As soon as I beat the cancer I'm there.
Having been a dietitian since1982 my opinion of supplements has changed over the years. To try to have a meaningful discussion of supplements in a short video is not doing anyone a favor. What matters most is taking extremely high-quality supplements also referred to as nutraceuticals. The difference has to do with the quality of the raw material, certain combinations that need to go together and the quantity that you take. If you want really good advice you need to consult with somebody who is an expert in nutrition. I don't mean to be insulting to the doctor but this conversation is just going to confuse people more. I don't think it's a waste of money to buy nutraceuticals. One issue people may have if they tend to be quite a bit more expensive than what people are used to paying. There's a lot more research these days on supplementation and it changes. So you can't just generalize. There are some extremely high-quality multi-vitamin mineral nutraceuticals. If you're going to buy cheap supplements you probably are wasting your money except for maybe a handful. Nutrition supplementation is a science and shouldn't be looked at like a fad. If you're restricting your diet in any way, including fasting, that makes proper supplementation even more important. To get recommendations you really have to have a thorough nutritional assessment by a person who is a nutrition professional. That very likely does not include your doctor unless you're going to an integrative physician.
Many people are not in a position to see a nutrition professional such as yourself - which would be ideal. I personally find her advice to be quite easy to understand and sensible albeit not tailored to each person’s individual situation.
The brand Pure Encapsulations are a good place to start. You also need to know which type of Supplements and what you can pair it with for bioavailability. Example, Vitamin D is better paired with K2 MK7
Agree. I have had health issues that doctors have NEVER been able to help with. I see a naturopathic practitioner, and it's the best thing I ever did. She diagnosed a thyroid issue through a blood test of which Medicare doesn't cover. The mainstream medical system wants you sick, not well, because that doesn't make them money. Plus, doctors don't seem to know anything about how the body works these days. I am on many supplements to handle the situation, and it's always changing, BUT at 57, I am on NO medications, nor have I been for years. Pharmaceuticals are causing more health issues than they cure, so I am trying to avoid them all. Yes, it is expensive because the government is owned by pharmaceutical companies, but in the long term, it is worth it.
I"ve been on a carnivore high-fat diet for almost a year and I get all the vitamins and minerals I need. This is the first year where I didn't even notice the springtime pollen which I was highly allergic to before. Of course, the meat has to be organic grass-fed meat. I consume grass-fed beef liver 3 times a week and drink raw goat's milk 1 to 2 cups before I go to bed. Just those two foods are packed with vitamins and minerals, especially the liver, it's such a potent superfood. Beef liver is inexpensive, way cheaper than any supplement out there. I don't like the taste but I can't deny the nutritional value of it. I just cut it up raw and put it in my magic bullet with a scoop of Green Vibrance an excellent probiotic, a banana, milk, honey, and beetroot powder. If I'm missing anything a fourth of a teaspoon of Himalayan sea salt will provide the rest. That's all you'll need plus some intermittent to all-day fasting preferably once a week.
I am a digital marketeer at Ars Pharmae. We offer food suplements. We make our own recepies based on a wholistic need not just one ingredient. We also discovered our own antioxidant out of a local tree. Not doing a commercial here, just a little background to what I am about to say. I find this very valuable and unbeliveably important, because there is so many shyte on the market that doesn't do food supplements any justice at all. And more content like this is needed to educate people. Thx.
I started taking vit d in 2020, I have rarely been sick. Now, I'm on vacation and have been forgetting my supplements, and have a flu virus. Im on day 3 and feeling better but I feel like my vitamin d level must be a factor. I wish you would talk more about how to tell if supplements are food based. I think there should be stricter laws about clear lables stating the source of theses products.
No matter what you like remember that we need to strengthen and clean 2 things In order for supplements to work their best on our bodies: 1) your gut lining ( maybe need to heal tour leaky gut or just eat cleaner or more healthier. This varies depending on each individuals health needs but in general more veggies/ greens, mono saturated fats and variety of probiotics. Also, your stress loads need readjusting) 2) your liver ( detox it and eat supporting liver foods)
I like to get my probiotics the natural way, from probiotic foods and using them in all forms. Home made apple cider vinegar, kombucha, fermented beans, fermented veg. sauerkraut, kimchea . We preserved our foods this way for many generations and this is the form our body is used to.
Mindy, I've been following you for a while and was thrown when I heard you say that if you are trying to conceive, you shouldn't be fasting. I'm 47 and been doing IVF for the past 2 years, and IF the whole time because the doctors say I need to lose weight. Have I sabotaged my entire IVF journey?
Dr. Mindy, I’m really starting to get into your teaching. I would like to add to the importance of minerals by reminding us that the soils are becoming more depleted in agricultural practices. All the more reason to pay attention to our mineral intake.
I have a dopamine addiction to ur video. Sweet charming vibes that you can't eat on ketosis, but you can watch right here. After my fast, I watch all your video and I feel nerdy about nutrition
I spent over $80 on a bottle of fulvic nutrients and got no response from my body at all except a headache. Trace mineral drops added to a drink also cause a headache. I love your passion, Dr. Mindy. Just wish I had a doctor like you so when these highly recommended things don't work for me I could sit down with you & ask what's going on. What's my roadblock. It's frustrating seeing good docs on TV and UA-cam but having zero chance of actually seeing one.
Love your videos Dr Mindy. I’m reading “Fast like a girl” now. Would love to know why your ketobiotic / hormone fasting plans in that book have such low protein? Everyone else is saying perimenopausal women should be eating their body weight in grams. I’ve already dropped 7 lbs in about a month and feel like my fat has gone down. Loving this new fasting lifestyle. ❤
I've heard the same ratio, though @drmindypelz says something different -- and it's a HUGE discrepancy, I'm unsure who to believe! Some docs are saying 1gm per KG of weight, Dr. Mindy says 1gm per LB of ideal weight. These are not small differences! I am AT my ideal weight - 57kgs/125lbs. So some docs say I should eat 57grams of protein, but Dr. M would say I should get 125grams of protein per day.
Dear Dr Mindy, Anyone taking D3 should always take it with K2. Vitamin D3 gloms onto calcium and without K2 to tell it what to do it just floats around in the blood eventually plugging up your heart. K2 is the conductor of the orchestra which tells the D3 to put it in your bones, your fingernails and to remineralize your teeth. With D3 and K2 in concert dental decay becomes a thing of past because the greatest amount of K2 is in saliva!! If you have roughness on the surface of your nails that will smooth out in about 4 weeks. Take your D3 with K2 after a meal because they are fat soluble and feel the difference. Jerry
@@mckcustomvinyldesignllc3645 I take Dr Berg's D3 K2 formula which comes with a tad if MCT oil for better absorption since they are fat soluable. Besides my fingernails I have two co-workers who's nails have smoothed out too.
Important also to alongside take in enough Magnesium, since it gets used when activating D3 in the liver&kidneys, as well as for D to absorb Calcium in the gut.
Never heard psychobiotics until now, found several studies but I do not know which one I should get? would you be able to recommend good psychobiotics supplement. Thank you, Dr. Mindy love listening to your channel.
Can you please do a video about endometriosis! I believe it’s caused by diet and eating carbs and sugar and is your body fighting back. Please explain because so many people suffer from this 😊
Hi there, make sure that you help your liver with the castor oil pack and coffee enema to push out those toxins. Also, Take an ox bile supplement. This is the most important recommendation for people who have lost their gallbladder. 🙂
My husband has a genetic predisposition for very high triglyceride levels. On the advice of his doctor, he has been taking omega3 fish oil capsules for some time and has been able to halve the level in the meantime. For myself, the fish oils help very well against dry eyes (menopause). We will both continue to take them.
@@Apoetandanisland Yes, it's all right. Many keto & carnivore eaters put cream or butter and MCT oil in their morning coffee even tho' they don't eat til much later. Insulin is higher then anyway, made by the body even when you have eaten NO carbs then or on the previous day, and there is usually almost no spike in insulin from fats anyway. Just be careful w the Stevia, tho', if you are a carb addict and insulin resistant, because that sweet taste CAN cause the body to produce insulin anyway just on the false expectation that carbs are on the way.
For probiotics I drink kombucha. It actually was the key to help me getting over long covid. I had very bad cognitive and fatigue issues, but about 30mins after I drank kombucha I picked up in energy and mental clarity. That allowed me to then bring in other strategies that eventually cured me. But not all brands worked, so I stuck to the one that did. I still have it a few times a week, and I do notice the difference when I don't drink it for a while. So clearly my gut bacteria likes that brand of kombucha!
I learned how to make my own kombucha and kefir water. Helped me a lot with my gut issues. I ferment my kombucha for 3 wks at about 86 degrees to ferment as much sugar as possible without making it too vinegary. I second ferment my kombucha with fresh ginger. A win win!!!! I was consuming quite a bit of Kombucha at around $4-$4.50 a bottle. Now I ferment my own for literally pennies a bottle. You dont have to go broke for your gut health!
@4everfree363 that's great! I don't know if I trust myself though... I'd hate to get it wrong and make myself sick. Is it pretty simple to make and hard to mess up?
Wow, great video! I have MCAS so I take Reservatrol, querzetin and curcumin for that and H1 and H2 blockers. I eat a low histamine diet to avoid too many problems. I feel great and fast a lot! I try to teach people how to eat good food!
0:00: Multivitamins are often unnecessary due to depleted soils and low nutrient levels in conventional produce. 0:34: The body can become less reliant on supplements when lifestyle and health practices are improved. 1:12: B Minerals is one of the few supplements recommended by the speaker. 5:37: Taking the same probiotic over and over may not be effective; specific probiotics based on gut tests are recommended. 6:21: Cheap capsule versions of vitamin D may not improve levels; high quality liquid vitamin D is recommended. 11:24: Vitamin shots in juices and smoothies are a waste of money. 12:24: Minerals, specifically bee minerals, are the most important supplement. 13:02: Minerals from the Earth can help drive minerals to inflamed cells and improve cell function. Recap by Tammy AI
I recently started adding Celtic Salt to my diet. Wouldn’t that give me the same as Beam Minerals? Curious why you say they’re better! Is the liquid more absorbable?
Question!!! I’m not a great eater so I do take a multivitamin that is from a very reputable company and my vitamins have B1=4mg 333% and B2=5mg 385% and B6 15mg 882% and B12 400mcg 16,667%. With a lot of other good stuff too. I tend to only take 1/2 the dosage, really to just save money. My question is, because I’m not a good eater, do you feel this amount of B vitamins is good for me or should I take the full dosage? These vitamins are from nutritional frontiers called womens complete.
Thank you for this! I am in menopause now, age 54. I don’t feel like a lot of my stuff works. You didn’t put a link in the description for the minerals in the video. Do you have that?
Life Extension, plant based supps, have really helped me turn my health around. Knowing how poor my diet has been, I desperately needed them and have noticed a huge difference. No longer bed ridden. 🕊️
This woman is incredible. We can learn so much from her and her knowledge is endless. May GOD bless her so she can keep up THIS Gift.

I have Dry Eye, and was advised to take omega 3 and flaxseed oils daily. when i stopped my regimen, my eyes became dry again. It has resolved now that ive resumed taking omega 3/flax. Note, i am 42, have a clean diet, exercise moderately every day. Just wanted to share what works for me. We are our own best barometers, and i also value what Dr. Mindy is sharing.
Sea buckthorn oil
I'm going to try these I have dry eyes and my cornea's are always tearing.
I had dry eyes for 11 years
Found that eating a carnivore diet high in fat has helped my eyes feel almost normal! I use cod liver oil in winter just for the A and D3. If you suffer from dry eyes getting inflamation down by eating carnivore or ketovore will help you. Not a quick fit but over time your symptons should decrease.

CHEAP VIt d.. not vit D
But what about Progesteron is also made out of omega 3 ? I take it always out of seaweed
Vitamin D is very much worth taking.
Find a vitamin D3 combined with K-2 , mk7 form of k-2 this will also help keep calcium get to your bones and teeth where it's needed and out of your arteries. Calcification of your arteries leads to heart attack and stroke more so then cholesterol.

My cholesterol and triglycerides were high and by just adding a good quality fish oil it brought back down all of my numbers to normal range. I am a believer of a good fish oil.
That's great. I'm gonna try that, too. My LDL and cholesterol levels were elevated, and my primary didn't suggest anything . The pharmacist said Onega fatty acid could actually raise my levels. My old primary, which I had for many years, always said fish oil. I guess we have to find out ourselves. 😊
Yes indeed! I use a very high quality fish oil for 20 years and it changed my numbers in my blood work tremendously.

Yes it is so very annoying when high quality supplements aren't in glass bottles! Puts me right off.
My vit D tested low last year. I began supplementing with D3& K2. My mood and energy has noticeably improved! It's well worth getting good vit D3/K2 especially if you have any depression. And who over 50 isn't?
I add trace minerals to my water. I definitely started feeling better after starting them. They are sourced from a special water source.
I am a 72 year old healthy, female, who’s had fibromyalgia for the last 35 years. After watching EO nutrition, Dr. Berg and the nerve doctors I started taking benfotiamine and magnesium at the highest recommended dose from EOnutrition, divided between morning and evening. And it is the first time in 35 years that I am almost pain-free. The B1 is fat soluble, so it gets into your cells and it really works to eliminate pain. My pain levels would be between seven and nine and now it is mostly two or three. Every. Single. Day. I can’t believe the difference it has made. So the types of supplements you take does make a difference like Dr. Mindy says.
🔥 🔥 Thanks for sharing your wins!!! YOU are doing awesome!! 🙌
What dose of Ben r u taking
@@laynebruce4862 if you listen to Elliot at EO nutrition, he’s not a doctor, but I think he’s a PhD who has studied this supplement for years. It is for diabetic neuropathy. If you read the comments, it seems to be helping a lot of people. I started out with 300 mg morning and night then went to 900 and 1200 but I still wasn’t getting any relief with 1200 so I went to the maximum dose of 1500. I noticed relief the very next day. I also take it with about 1500 mg of magnesium. I take half in the morning and half at night. Hope this helps you.
Coffee first thing in the morning and fasting for a long period of time has contributed to my LPRGerd. Caffeine is very bad for Gerd. I knew I had an acidic body but failed to take that into consideration while doing IF. I have since switched to a chicory drink in the morning and then continue to IF. I love how I feel doing IF and I am more energetic and IF keeps my weight in check. I’m 76 and am not on any drugs, which seems to be the minority of people in my age bracket. I have your book. I had complete blood work done by my Naturopath and then know what supplements I need. I control my LPR Gerd with diet and I am eliminating, coffee, alcohol, chocolate, sugar, and a lot of carbs, mint. No need for drugs at all. Thanks for your work Dr. Mindy. Linda
I take Apple cider vinegar bills to over come my GERD. It works like a charm. Once pill at night. I can still enjoy chocolate once in a while and social drinking. No problem.
I actually use ACV mixed with fresh lemon juice, 12 ounces of water before I have my main meal for the day….
Works great. I have actually been in absorbing vitamins and not had any problems with Gerd since I made this simple adjustment.
I do try to follow keto, but not strictly I do have a slice of homemade wheat bread twice a week

With so many conflicting opinions out there on everything health, I think Dr Mindy offers the balance I've been looking for. Keep the good work going Doc..

She just offers another conflicting opinion. The fact is, the medical community knows very little about most things, but if they can make money at it they are all in.
I do take Centrum Women 50+ and if I stop, after two weeks, I start to notice a difference in my wellbeing. I’ve unwittingly tested this in the past and even if it’s a placebo effect (which I don’t believe it was), it worked and still works for me. As this is a promotional video, it feels obvious that other brands would be accused of being less than the promoted brand. Not trying to be negative, but if it works and that’s all a person can afford, it feels like a no brainer to use other brands.

Which gel capsule do you use? Bet you’re lying
@@lewyfranklin7036 I use the certified one recommended by Ken D Berry MD.
Vitamin D3 + K2 is the only supplement I take from the list. Totally worth it. My D levels were usually deficient. I get my levels checked about 2x/year and they’ve been optimal for a couple of years now.
Same here the, bloodwork doesnt lie
I agree, I was deficient probably for years from covering up in the sun, I started Vit D and now have good levels.

Do you drink together or separate? Because some dietician said d3 and k2 compete each other so need to drink separately

The 2 orchids in the back of you look like they have been getting too much water.
My rule on multivitamin is that it must be 100% food based, formulated with the correct ingredient ratios and have a slow release coating so it gets past stomach acids and into the small intestines where it can be absorbed. I've been taking Xtend-Life Total Balance for over a decade and it's the real deal. Sadly, high quality multi like this one are quite expensive, but you're doing more harm than good taking cheap synthetic grocery store multivitamins. I take several of the supplements on this list, but I pay close attention to quality, potency and purity.
I’ve been in the supplement industry for 30 years. Trust me, there is no such thing as “food based”.

Thanks Dr Mindy, I can’t wait to use these. I just got your book, I’m working on balancing my cycle with my fasting. I was going intermittent fasting but I wasn’t syncing it with my shifts throughout my monthly cycle. I started last month, and I noticed during my last period I had almost no cramping, my mood swings were lessened, I wasn’t bloated or retaining hardly any water. So this will be my second month doing this, looking forward to seeing the result by my next period. Still trying to get my rhythm down. But I’m excited to see how my overall health continues to improve. I’m loving the bonus of looking leaner and having more defined muscles and abs! It’s definitely gotten my stomach back to being flat and lean.

I take a bunch of different supplements and then rotate them every month or so. I believe that if you are getting certain vitamins from your food, especially if it is organic or home grown, that many supplements you can leave out. I also, try my best to get the vitamins and minerals I need from my food. And I love all food, so it makes it easier. No food I do not like!
I rotate my supplements also, and take them in groups that go together.

Celtic salt has all the minerals you need. I take it everyday multiple times and also fulvic acid....
The EPA to DHA ratio is what matters in Omega 3's. Hard to get enough EPA from diet alone. EPA helps with inflammation, etc... A blood test can check this as well so it's quantifiable.

The only probiotic I take is my home made fermented cabbage. Cannot go wrong.
And yogurt too.,
How do you make it?
@@amarildaduraj4171many recipes here, just search
Please post your recipe ❤
@amarildaduraj4171
Finely slice cabbage with a food processor, if possible. Otherwise, finely slice with a knife. Try to make sure that all the bits and pieces are relatively close to the same size, so they ferment evenly.
Put the chopped cabbage in a large bowl. Sprinkle with the appropriate amount of salt (use a good salt like Redmonds or Himalayan pink salt) per pound, according to the chart I pasted in right below:
Add any herbs or spices (I like fresh, peeled, crushed, whole or minced, garlic, fresh sprigs of dillweed and a little, black, coarsely ground pepper or just a few whole, black peppercorns in the bottom of the jar.) to the bowl and mix in with clean hands or utensils. Let the mixture stand for 15-20 minutes, so the salt can draw the liquid from the cabbage.
Pack the mixture (including any liquid) tightly up to the shoulder of the jar, leaving 3-4 inches of head space. Be sure to use a very clean Fido Brand Clamp top jar, if possible. I like to run my jars through the dishwasher on the Sanitize cycle before using them for fermenting.
After packing the jar, close them up and let them ferment at room temperature for 6 weeks. The fermenting vegetables will release liquid and gases as good bacteria multiply. Fido brand clamp top jars are self burping, as long as the seals don't get stuck to the glass. So, be sure to check for sticking seals after 6, 12, and 24 hours by gently, but firmly pulling on the tab attached to the seal. You may hear air seeping out when you pull. If you fill the jars too full, the liquid will get on the seal and make it sticky, stopping the self burping action, so be sure to leave enough head room, so you don’t have overflow.
-If you can't find Fido brand clamp top jars, you may use clean quart or pint canning jars but the self burping feature is well worth it! You'll need to loosen the lids to burp the mason jars every 6-24 hours (more often in the beginning) for a few days to a week, though, so they don't burst.
Within 24 hours, you should see bubbles start to rise to the top. That's a sign that fermentation has begun and pressure will be present.
Fido Fermentation is the name of a FB group that is aimed at people who ferment in Fido jars.
There are also special airlock jars (Pickl-it, is one good brand) you can use to ferment in. You don't have to worry about burping jars if you use use and airlock type jar.
After 6 weeks, open the jars and slowly add in some of the liquid in the jar to your food. Start low and slow and gradually increase the amount over time. It's better to go slowly than, have to take a couple steps back. Depending on your gut health, you may need to start with just a drop to begin with and double that amount every few days. Then, slowly introduce the actual sauerkraut in the same way. Just eat a little, tiny bit to start and increase slowly.
Don't be alarmed if you experience some digestive symptoms, like gas, diarrhea, constipation (consider a colon cleanse or an enema if, you're not having a bowel movement every day, though. That means your biggest form of releasing toxins isn't working well and in extreme cases, your body will have to find other places to store the toxins and waste,if it can't remove it from the body.) That's most likely the good bacteria in the sauerkraut killing off bad yeasts and bad bacteria in the gut. If you experience any of these symptoms, simply go back to the last amount where you were symptom free and stick to that amount for a few days to a week before slowly increasing again. You'll want to work up to a cup of fermented veggies or so per day for at least 6 months to a year. You may find that you like them and want to keep them as part of your diet. If you don't care for Sauerkraut, try fermenting carrots and making fermented pickles. One of my favorite ferments is Garlic Dilly Carrots. If you experience severe symptoms, you may want to check out the gut healing GAPS Diet by Dr Natasha Campbell-McBride. You'll want her book, but my favorite resource besides the book is the FAQs at: www.Gapsdiet.com
and
Www.gaps.me
There are also Facebook groups that are super helpful, as well.
You can hire a GAPS Certified Practitioner to help guide you. If you go that route, I really like Becky Plottner of Nourishing Plot Blog.

Amazing!!
Nutritional Books written way back in the late 60’s claimed that our soils were depleted of nutrients and minerals. Close to 50 years now. On top of growing vegetables on depleted soil by the time that vegetables and fruits hit your table there is nothing much left in the produce. A multi vitamin is important.
Our pharmacy received multiple inquiries from doctors concerning vitamin D3. Those patients supplementing with D3 in TABLET form were not seeing increases in their D3 blood levels. After switching to D3 in CAPSULE form (with the liquid inside) their blood levels rose as expected.
That’s interesting
What is your take on Moringa?
Thank you Dr P! I gained so much weight from taking multivitamins! It’s a no for me too.

Yes! I took trace elements a couple year ago, v good quality liquid one, it’s like a teaspoon a day or something. People get blinded by the big shot vitamins, meanwhile our bodies are also dropping in those teeny tiny trace minerals in our bodies that are incredibly important. I need to reorder and get on it!
I take vitamin d3 1000, and almost every time, my level is 20. I'm gonna recheck soon. Mt old primary thought that is enough to take. I'm starting menopause what supplement helps balance hormones ? Thank you. Love your videos.

To balance hormones during menopause, consider supplements like Vitamin B6, Magnesium, Black Cohosh, Maca Root, Omega-3 Fatty Acids, and Vitamin E. Consult a healthcare provider before starting any new supplements. Lifestyle factors also play a crucial role in hormonal balance.

What is her recommendation to people over 65 and for vegans. How can vegans do Keto?
For vegans, achieving a ketogenic diet can be challenging due to the carb and animal product restrictions. They can focus on healthy plant-based fats, incorporate low-carb veggies and plant-based proteins, and monitor essential nutrients. Personalized guidance and consulting healthcare professionals are important for both groups.
Thank you. Health care professionals know nothing about this. I found a couple that approval veganism, but they all seem to be up in the air about keto. The only one I know that knows about it is a doctor that I see as a patient and I can’t turn him into my doctor.
I guess my question is is it possible to be keto and vegan at the same time. Is there some powder that I can take. I do take OptimalAmino which supposedly delivers 20 g of protein with only 4 cal and is recommended for keto check it out for yourself and it is half the price literally half out of all the other essential amino acids that you can buy . I take it twice a day so my question remains do you think it’s even possible other than what I am doing for Vegan to be keto?
My other question is how to remove plaque in the arteries. I know I have some. Do you believe that if I managed to be keto, Mike and fast at my body would get rid of that plaque?
Dr Mindy, thanks for keeping it real! You present important information in an easy to understand manner. Your obvious sincerity is appreciated!

I just bought primal greens to supplement my nutrition since I am intermittent fasting and eating calories deficit. Now I'm wondering if I chose the wrong suppliment
Yes, if we learned anything these last few years it should be that we should get away from the "it can't hurt" nonsense. I've started low carb plus fasting again this past month (used it years ago but as like goes, I fell away and it shows!). Thank you for the reminder of the power of the 36 hour fast. I've done 2 this week and dropped almost 5 pounds (I'm aware that most of this is water but am also in deep ketosis). I talk about health = wealth quite a bit and I thank you for being a resource that I can send people to!
Hi I start again to do also the IF. But I’m new with the long fasting ( did always the 18 h fast. So last week I wanted to do the 36 h vast. At 6:00 the 36 h ended I was still a sleep so a eat after 44 h 🤷🏻♀️ so I’m not sure if this gives also the same result as 36 h fasting ? Maybe you can help me 🌺
I do best on the 17 hour TRE. I eat meat, fish, fruits and vegetables, but no grains or seed oils.

Having been a dietitian since1982 my opinion of supplements has changed over the years. To try to have a meaningful discussion of supplements in a short video is not doing anyone a favor. What matters most is taking extremely high-quality supplements also referred to as nutraceuticals. The difference has to do with the quality of the raw material, certain combinations that need to go together and the quantity that you take.
If you want really good advice you need to consult with somebody who is an expert in nutrition. I don't mean to be insulting to the doctor but this conversation is just going to confuse people more.
I don't think it's a waste of money to buy nutraceuticals. One issue people may have if they tend to be quite a bit more expensive than what people are used to paying.
There's a lot more research these days on supplementation and it changes. So you can't just generalize. There are some extremely high-quality multi-vitamin mineral nutraceuticals. If you're going to buy cheap supplements you probably are wasting your money except for maybe a handful.
Nutrition supplementation is a science and shouldn't be looked at like a fad. If you're restricting your diet in any way, including fasting, that makes proper supplementation even more important.
To get recommendations you really have to have a thorough nutritional assessment by a person who is a nutrition professional. That very likely does not include your doctor unless you're going to an integrative physician.
Many people are not in a position to see a nutrition professional such as yourself - which would be ideal. I personally find her advice to be quite easy to understand and sensible albeit not tailored to each person’s individual situation.
I agree I trust the high quality supplement more than the meat at my market however love her education I’m in menopause and fasting has helped
🙌
The brand Pure Encapsulations are a good place to start.
You also need to know which type of Supplements and what you can pair it with for bioavailability.
Example, Vitamin D is better paired with K2 MK7
Agree. I have had health issues that doctors have NEVER been able to help with. I see a naturopathic practitioner, and it's the best thing I ever did. She diagnosed a thyroid issue through a blood test of which Medicare doesn't cover. The mainstream medical system wants you sick, not well, because that doesn't make them money. Plus, doctors don't seem to know anything about how the body works these days.
I am on many supplements to handle the situation, and it's always changing, BUT at 57, I am on NO medications, nor have I been for years. Pharmaceuticals are causing more health issues than they cure, so I am trying to avoid them all.
Yes, it is expensive because the government is owned by pharmaceutical companies, but in the long term, it is worth it.
I HAVE to take vitamin D. Whenever I stop, I become severely deficient. I also take magnesium as it helps with my SVT & fibro pain.
I"ve been on a carnivore high-fat diet for almost a year and I get all the vitamins and minerals I need. This is the first year where I didn't even notice the springtime pollen which I was highly allergic to before. Of course, the meat has to be organic grass-fed meat. I consume grass-fed beef liver 3 times a week and drink raw goat's milk 1 to 2 cups before I go to bed. Just those two foods are packed with vitamins and minerals, especially the liver, it's such a potent superfood. Beef liver is inexpensive, way cheaper than any supplement out there. I don't like the taste but I can't deny the nutritional value of it. I just cut it up raw and put it in my magic bullet with a scoop of Green Vibrance an excellent probiotic, a banana, milk, honey, and beetroot powder. If I'm missing anything a fourth of a teaspoon of Himalayan sea salt will provide the rest. That's all you'll need plus some intermittent to all-day fasting preferably once a week.

Im on day 3 and feeling better but I feel like my vitamin d level must be a factor. I wish you would talk more about how to tell if supplements are food based. I think there should be stricter laws about clear lables stating the source of theses products.
No matter what you like remember that we need to strengthen and clean 2 things In order for supplements to work their best on our bodies:
1) your gut lining ( maybe need to heal tour leaky gut or just eat cleaner or more healthier. This varies depending on each individuals health needs but in general more veggies/ greens, mono saturated fats and variety of probiotics. Also, your stress loads need readjusting)
2) your liver ( detox it and eat supporting liver foods)
Thank you Dr. Mindy! What are your thoughts on taking Inositol Myo-Inositol form for PCOS?
Dr. Mindy Pelz How can we checked our vitaminD levels at home?
Thank you so much! Just ordered the BEAM minerals.
💙💙
I like to get my probiotics the natural way, from probiotic foods and using them in all forms. Home made apple cider vinegar, kombucha, fermented beans, fermented veg. sauerkraut, kimchea . We preserved our foods this way for many generations and this is the form our body is used to.
🙌
Mindy, I've been following you for a while and was thrown when I heard you say that if you are trying to conceive, you shouldn't be fasting. I'm 47 and been doing IVF for the past 2 years, and IF the whole time because the doctors say I need to lose weight. Have I sabotaged my entire IVF journey?
@ Dr Mindy! How about Berberine! Would that help us Menopausal women loose the weight?
Great question! Hope you get an answer. I'm curious too
Great question!!❤
Awesome question! Following ❤️

Dr. Mindy, I’m really starting to get into your teaching. I would like to add to the importance of minerals by reminding us that the soils are becoming more depleted in agricultural practices. All the more reason to pay attention to our mineral intake.
💙🙌
I have a dopamine addiction to ur video. Sweet charming vibes that you can't eat on ketosis, but you can watch right here. After my fast, I watch all your video and I feel nerdy about nutrition
😅
I spent over $80 on a bottle of fulvic nutrients and got no response from my body at all except a headache.
Trace mineral drops added to a drink also cause a headache. I love your passion, Dr. Mindy. Just wish I had a doctor like you so when these highly recommended things don't work for me I could sit down with you & ask what's going on. What's my roadblock. It's frustrating seeing good docs on TV and UA-cam but having zero chance of actually seeing one.
Love your videos Dr Mindy. I’m reading “Fast like a girl” now. Would love to know why your ketobiotic / hormone fasting plans in that book have such low protein? Everyone else is saying perimenopausal women should be eating their body weight in grams.
I’ve already dropped 7 lbs in about a month and feel like my fat has gone down. Loving this new fasting lifestyle. ❤

A heart but not a reply to the question 😢
@@DebbieTDP I’m sure she’s very busy. Maybe she’ll cover it in a video someday, or maybe there’s already a video on it.
She has covered this is multiple videos.
I've heard the same ratio, though @drmindypelz says something different -- and it's a HUGE discrepancy, I'm unsure who to believe! Some docs are saying 1gm per KG of weight, Dr. Mindy says 1gm per LB of ideal weight. These are not small differences! I am AT my ideal weight - 57kgs/125lbs. So some docs say I should eat 57grams of protein, but Dr. M would say I should get 125grams of protein per day.
Krill oil seems to be helping me, I am not sure if it's my imagination or not, but it does seem to be doing something positive.
Dear Dr Mindy,
Anyone taking D3 should always take it with K2. Vitamin D3 gloms onto calcium and without K2 to tell it what to do it just floats around in the blood eventually plugging up your heart. K2 is the conductor of the orchestra which tells the D3 to put it in your bones, your fingernails and to remineralize your teeth. With D3 and K2 in concert dental decay becomes a thing of past because the greatest amount of K2 is in saliva!! If you have roughness on the surface of your nails that will smooth out in about 4 weeks. Take your D3 with K2 after a meal because they are fat soluble and feel the difference.

I've been taking D3/K2 for 2 years and I still have rough nails. I do agree that teeth have virtually no calculus withthat, though.
@@mckcustomvinyldesignllc3645
I take Dr Berg's D3 K2 formula which comes with a tad if MCT oil for better absorption since they are fat soluable. Besides my fingernails I have two co-workers who's nails have smoothed out too.
Yes, I learned about K2 with D from my hero Dr. John Campbell. Thank you for sharing this!
100mcg K2-MK7 for every 10,000 iu D3.
Important also to alongside take in enough Magnesium, since it gets used when activating D3 in the liver&kidneys, as well as for D to absorb Calcium in the gut.
Never heard psychobiotics until now, found several studies but I do not know which one I should get? would you be able to recommend good psychobiotics supplement. Thank you, Dr. Mindy love listening to your channel.
Can you please do a video about endometriosis! I believe it’s caused by diet and eating carbs and sugar and is your body fighting back. Please explain because so many people suffer from this 😊
Yes I would love to hear her perspective. Great questions!❤

Yes!
Which supplement is necessary for people without gallbladder? Thank you ❤
Hi there, make sure that you help your liver with the castor oil pack and coffee enema to push out those toxins. Also, Take an ox bile supplement. This is the most important recommendation for people who have lost their gallbladder. 🙂
My husband has a genetic predisposition for very high triglyceride levels. On the advice of his doctor, he has been taking omega3 fish oil capsules for some time and has been able to halve the level in the meantime. For myself, the fish oils help very well against dry eyes (menopause). We will both continue to take them.
Hello dr,
Is it alright if we use stevia and cream in our coffee during fasting window?
@@Apoetandanisland Yes, it's all right. Many keto & carnivore eaters put cream or butter and MCT oil in their morning coffee even tho' they don't eat til much later.
Insulin is higher then anyway, made by the body even when you have eaten NO carbs then or on the previous day, and there is usually almost no spike in insulin from fats anyway.
Just be careful w the Stevia, tho', if you are a carb addict and insulin resistant, because that sweet taste CAN cause the body to produce insulin anyway just on the false expectation that carbs are on the way.
i just bought vitamin b to help with intermitting fasting .
For probiotics I drink kombucha. It actually was the key to help me getting over long covid. I had very bad cognitive and fatigue issues, but about 30mins after I drank kombucha I picked up in energy and mental clarity. That allowed me to then bring in other strategies that eventually cured me. But not all brands worked, so I stuck to the one that did. I still have it a few times a week, and I do notice the difference when I don't drink it for a while. So clearly my gut bacteria likes that brand of kombucha!
"long covid" 😶Oh man, there are people still doing the covid thing?
I learned how to make my own kombucha and kefir water. Helped me a lot with my gut issues. I ferment my kombucha for 3 wks at about 86 degrees to ferment as much sugar as possible without making it too vinegary. I second ferment my kombucha with fresh ginger. A win win!!!! I was consuming quite a bit of Kombucha at around $4-$4.50 a bottle. Now I ferment my own for literally pennies a bottle. You dont have to go broke for your gut health!
@4everfree363 that's great! I don't know if I trust myself though... I'd hate to get it wrong and make myself sick. Is it pretty simple to make and hard to mess up?
@@amandajane7760 kefir and kombucha are very easy to make. There are many very good videos on UA-cam to walk you through the process.
Wow, great video! I have MCAS so I take Reservatrol, querzetin and curcumin for that and H1 and H2 blockers. I eat a low histamine diet to avoid too many problems. I feel great and fast a lot! I try to teach people how to eat good food!

0:00: Multivitamins are often unnecessary due to depleted soils and low nutrient levels in conventional produce.
0:34: The body can become less reliant on supplements when lifestyle and health practices are improved.
1:12: B Minerals is one of the few supplements recommended by the speaker.
5:37: Taking the same probiotic over and over may not be effective; specific probiotics based on gut tests are recommended.
6:21: Cheap capsule versions of vitamin D may not improve levels; high quality liquid vitamin D is recommended.
11:24: Vitamin shots in juices and smoothies are a waste of money.
12:24: Minerals, specifically bee minerals, are the most important supplement.
13:02: Minerals from the Earth can help drive minerals to inflamed cells and improve cell function.

Thank you!
Big and obvious question. Beem has minerals especially for women. What minerals does Beem have for men?
This was so helpful 🙏❤️ thank you!
Can I put nutrients back into my home garden soil?
I recently started adding Celtic Salt to my diet. Wouldn’t that give me the same as Beam Minerals? Curious why you say they’re better! Is the liquid more absorbable?
Yes!
Isn't celtic in water adsorption?
Question!!! I’m not a great eater so I do take a multivitamin that is from a very reputable company and my vitamins have B1=4mg 333% and B2=5mg 385% and B6 15mg 882% and B12 400mcg 16,667%. With a lot of other good stuff too. I tend to only take 1/2 the dosage, really to just save money. My question is, because I’m not a good eater, do you feel this amount of B vitamins is good for me or should I take the full dosage? These vitamins are from nutritional frontiers called womens complete.
Thank you for this! I am in menopause now, age 54. I don’t feel like a lot of my stuff works. You didn’t put a link in the description for the minerals in the video. Do you have that?
