Dr. Berg you completely changed my life and I’ve only been doing Clean Keto and Intermittent Fasting for 4 weeks. My weight, skin, anxiety, sleep and overall mood and has improved greatly. I can’t possibly thank you enough. I am 40 years old and have never felt so young!
That is just wonderful! I am so happy that you discovered him at this age because you will have many healthy decades ahead of you! (I'm in my 60s and just discovered him 3 years ago and I feel great, now, too!) Have a wonderful day!!!
The #1 early sign of toxic kidneys: • Decreased urine output Other early signs of toxic kidneys: • Frequent urination • Ammonia-smelling urine, body odor, and breath • Foamy urine • Feeling cold all of the time • Itchy skin • Fatigue What you can do for toxic kidneys: 1. Go on a low-carb diet and get your carbs from vegetables 2. Stop drinking alcohol 3. Consume a moderate amount of protein Thank you Dr Berg!!
@@ClearWater7.62 @rdsa hi 👋 so this is the truth here guys.. if your having trouble with any type of digestion you should really consider removing fiber and sugar immediately and in total (including fruits). This goes back to the beginning of time to the story of adam and eve and is the biggest lie ever told to man. It was the fruit that eliminated adam and eves immortality. Fiber is not needed. Sugar is not needed and it could be killing you!!! For soo long I personally delt with pain and spent every dollar i made on doctors and test with no results and only additional stress. Speaking of stress.. hot baths/cold baths/water is healing so dont be afraid to use it to cure yourself. Try it!! Along with intermittent fasting you should see results almost immediately. Hope that helps.. Australia medical has alot of videos on this topic of removing fiber/scientific studies showing 100% succes rate!!!
I want to comment on drinking the entire lemon, I love the effects . Even my wife noticed. I could not go over an hour before needing to urinate, lots of stops when traveling. Our last trip I lasted well over two hours. I was drinking lemon water with no really noticeable impact. Now I just use some purified water one lemon I slice up , blend and blend and blend. I add that chunky juice to a glass of water. I really cannot thank you enough. A really simple natural improvement in my life so easy and so very cheap.
Thank you Dr. Berg for sharing your knowledge about a problem as serious as kidney disease. I just wanted to add that, when it comes to preventing CKD, it's always better to focus on risk factors rather than symptoms. That's because when the first symptoms show up it means that the patient is already in an advanced stage of the disease. Risk factors, on the other hand, are always present. So in case of diabetes, high blood pressure, family history of kidney disease, being overweight and also over the age of 60 NEVER wait for symptoms to show up. Get checked.
The first symptom or two does NOT already indicate advanced stage of CKD. Anyone of those issues or two can be due to other issues. Please don't freak people out that one symptom means advanced stage. Itchy skin could be simply dry skin, allergic reaction, stress, etc. Being tired could be a number of things. Increased thirst could simply be dehydration. Also, risk factors are NOT "always" present. Some people in early stages of CKD have no symptoms at all. In the end, regularly checkups is most important.

Dr. Berg, your informative videos have completely turned my health around. I'm not even very old, but my body was starting to have all kinds of problems from a lifetime of high carb junk food. My liver was very sick, kidneys were giving up quick. I did low carb and intermittent fasting for 6 months and lost 35 lbs. Still another 15 lbs to go, but I already feel so much better. I will always eat low carb and organic everything going forward. I love it!!!!
As a Muslim I find after my one month fast during the daylight hours in Ramadan I find my body resets itself. I don’t have time to state all the benefits. All the research is out there. The benefits are great although we fast solely for Gods (Allah) sake.

Having had a small kidney stone in my late 20s, I can assure you, it's an experience I do not wish to repeat. Avoid intense pain. Take care of your kidneys.
@@jesus_rt345 I had it too and my sister also. Someone recommended to boil barely and strain the water, drink the water on empty stomach. It worked very well. And they stone didn't return. Also its good for gallbladder stone
@@paminwinchester yes, it works, you can find it at grocery stores as whole grain or powder. You need to drain it, drink the water and throw the grain.
Thank you so much for this! I especially appreciate 🙏 your concern for dialysis patients. We all need to know how to reverse health problems instead of just treating the symptoms. You always show us the root of the problem and give us practical solutions that really work!
I’m so grateful that I found you. I take my health pretty seriously, but I make too many assumptions. When I was in the Army I deployed 3 times and injured my back fairly severe. Over the next couple years they had me on 13 different medications ranging from opiates to anti-anxiety. It ruined my stomach for many years but eventually corrected itself after cutting out all pills and eating more veggies. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and being a light. May God bless you.
@@onBview I’m sorry, I never saw this comment. It was a process of a couple years. It happened because I was in such terrible pain. I knew I needed to change what I was doing and I started researching better ways to get healthy. I started to eat only organic food and started drinking natural juices and smoothies. I quit all fast food and stopped drinking surgery drinks. I quit all pills, and, not that I recommend it, but I replaced the pills with cannabis. I don’t smoke anymore but it helped me for a time. Getting healthy can be tough at first because we get set in bad habits but it’s worth it . Not only will we be healthier and live longer but we are in less pain also. I truly suggest what Dr Berg is recommending. May God bless you with wisdom and strength to make the proper changes.
@@Fit.For.A.Firefight. Many thanks for still taking time to respond, I appreciate that. Also glad you are doing well. I have greatly improved and still on the journey. Many thanks again🙏🏽
Your so right I was on dialysis for 5 years had a transplant, and no information on diet etc doing good from doing my own research great video as always
Thank you Dr Berg, I left a reply asking for you todo a video on the kidneys and many people come together to help, as well as yourself. I had a scan yesterday and the nurse said they seem ok nothing obvious, but I'm going to go clean and follow your success story's. Thank you to you and everyone in the comment section from previous videos, I wish you all the best in your healthy life style.
I have some symptoms but in the last 8 weeks I have itchy hands, arms, feet. Doctor told me to take antihistamines and cream but still not going away. My bloods came back as Satasfactory. I don't have much trust as same Doctor told me I was fine and able for work for 8 weeks, so I went to the hospital. Gallbladder was full of stones so had keyhole to remove. I have been watching your content, very pleased with your professional and detailed information.
If you consume alcohol drink alot of water, it has helped me alot I have noticed big improvements in a lot of issues I was noticing in my body and I reduced my alcohol intake. I didn't drink a lot but the people I associated with did and I tried to keep up with them, but everyone's body is different and I started noticing I couldn't consume alcohol like before. I'm just giving advice yheres more to tell but the message is the importance of water, good clean water.
Add some fresh squeezed lemon in with this as well and in the morning and before bed try hot water with lemon x BOOM you really notice the difference... water is great however have a listen to Dr bergs chats on what to add into water x
@@Kyle-zz4mr recently I started drinking probably 6-8 beers a week but I need to cut that down. I'm doing better because before I would only drink 1-2 beers and I would start feeling sick and dizzy.
Very informative and comprehensive. Thanks Dr. Berg for your great and to the point videos. You respect to your audience's time and you always give practical ways that helps our health. That's why I always follow and watch your channel.
My father has DM2 & does try to maintain a low carb & protein diet, but he doesn’t like seeing how frail he’s become just skin & bones. To counter that, he would increase his protein intake. It’s a disservice to patients when medical professionals do not advise patients on specific diets to maintain. I appreciate channels like yours because I want to understand not only the conditions but the reality of what it would mean to manage it in everyday life. Thanks.
I watched your video and discovered what my mother had, sadly I couldn't work more then 16 hours to save my mother, her medical bills were very high. She passed away at the age of 55
in 2012-2013, I had a roommate, one of my best friends, I used to ask him, why even after you flush the toilet some foam and oil remains? We had no clue it was related to kidneys. Later I changed my city and then he came against kidney problem, and later he was in dialysis, we lost him last year 2021. It was so much sadness and helplessness. this kind of knowledge should be a part of educational books. we could save so many people.
Puffiness around the eyes can be explained by the kidneys leaking a large amount of protein into the urine, rather than holding it and distributing it throughout the body. The increased level of toxins makes it difficult to sleep. For this reason, when you get less sleep, you increase the chances of deteriorating kidney function.
@@omaramr7969 Some get dark circles from allergies/intolerances to food or something used on the skin/hair etc Often you also get a blocked nose to some extent.. Try an elimination process and work out if going about a week strictly without a food or product makes a difference. Gluten, dairy, corn and peanuts are the ones I've seen most likely to cause this type of reaction. All the best with it.
Wooow this was really helpful all those signs just pointed to me and now I know why that frequent weight gain because water was being deposited into other parts of my body. My left ankles is always swollen and puffy, tired through out the day, feeling cold when is it 30c outside, foaming urine. I will definitely see a doctor and start eating healthy
Every time watching Dr Berg Videos I badly regret why I didn’t choose medical instead accounting😕His clarification of medical research more detailed than my doctor!! THQ DR.Berg🥰 MAY GoD bless you 🙏
Good to refresh my memory on why I need to keep trying to stay low carb. I have been indulging too much even though I know and felt how much keto and IF helps me.
Dr.Berg helped out by watching his videos to loose 32 pounds of my weight , for many years I had fatty liver, last week my doctor told me my liver is okay , Thanks a lot Dr.Berg ,God bless you.
@@jesus_rt345 Follow the KETO diet along with Dr. Berg's videos, and try to watch them all. - Remember the three (3) death foods: Grains, - Wheats, - and Sugar (sugar, being the worse). Report back when the results emerge, we're curious to know.
i had these symptoms from dehydration after I removed heavy metals with iodine which gave me diarhea. I had kidney pain, muscle weakness, itchiness etc. And no I dont eat sugar or grains LOL. Drink water and help your kidneys. :)
Some foam is normal, when you have stage 4 or 5 kidney disease, it’s really foamy and it’s doesn’t look normal at all. It’s like a lot dish soap was added to the toilet
Dr. Berg, I want to say that I LOVE your lists!! I had encephalitis and sepsis in 2010 and since then, find my short term memory to be little more than a puff of air sometimes lol Your lists help me retain your important points. I wish everyone employed this teaching tool. Thank you SO much for communicating with various methods to help me retain what you're saying. :)
I have become a fan of your video's. They are so well presented, and not so long that there is too much to remember. I was CKD stage 3 for probably 25 years, I knew about it from a chance blood exam around 20 years ago. For all that time I have been bouncing around 45-59 eGFR using combined information from yourself, Dr Ekberg, Dr Ken Berry MD, and Ivor Cummins, all via an initial intro from Dr John Bergman DC. All courtesy of UA-cam. My last test suddenly had me at 78 eGFR after taking on board the combined advice.
@@paulgay4877basically low to no carbs. No seed oils, eat mostly carnivore with small amounts of veggies, using butter, avoiding margarine and vegetable shortening. Hardly ever eating fast food. Only small amounts of alcohol.
Good Morning , Dr.Berg 🌞 I sure do appreciate you ! Thank you so much for sharing this important information with everyone . Have A wonderful day , God bless richly you all ! ❤ 4 / 7 / 2022 ❤
This makes me feel so afraid. I'm a former stage 3B rectal cancer patient. I eat eggs and besides that just green leafy vegetables, including multiple types of sprouts (both broccoli and radish), sauerkraut, cole slaw and beets. I don't over cook any green leafy veggies. I eat some carbs, like tortillas, but I read the packages to get the least amount. I had high gluclose levels the last time I had my blood work done (wasn't a fasting blood exam and I was drinking home made electrolytes - lemon, salt, maple syrup - since then I've switched to stevia) so I added more magnesium and chromium into my diet. I stayed away from the multi-grain breads and added turkey and salmon into my diet, even though I had been a vegan since 1990. All this is so new to me and I'm afraid of a fatty liver and toxic kidneys. I know you're too busy to respond to these messages but I feel like I'm failing my body. I'm 52, I walk 2 miles a day through hills, I do light stretching and sit ups daily but I don't feel like I'm 40 years old or anything close to the majority of these posts.
Dr berg you should add captions in other languages like hindi and others. It will help millions of people around the globe and your channel will also grow leaps
I had symptoms like that a while ago, for few days, then they vanished by themselves. I think milk thistle supplement, combined by garlic ones, can help in this case too. Thanks Dr Berg.
@@mrarivv0007 If you're referring to the distinctive odour that garlic can make in the mouth, I don't have this prob, cause I chew fresh cloves regularly to kill any mouth bacteria. You should try that if you're concerned about using garlic regularly.
Love Dr. Berg that I have been practicing homeopathy for over 10 years however Dr. Berg educates you on your anatomy and how it functions with wastes 🙏
I’ve started my IF + Keto January 15 at 275lbs and my goal is 180lbs. In 3 months I am already at 210lbs (lost 65lbs). I’ve been alternating OMAD with daily 18/6 IF.
I was diagnosed with renal failure 6 weeks ago. Getting up 10 to 12 times a night to urinate. Very somatic holding fluids all over my body. My bladder retention was 1400cc’s due to major prostrate blockage I had TURP performed a week ago dr removed a grape size piece that was blocking urine flow. Due to being born with only one kidney I have been studying as much information I can to protect it by proper nutrition changes to my diet. Im 50 and for the first time in my life I’m hearing the high % of men affected by prostrate issues which leads to kidney and liver issues as well as others. Dam shame this is not on every tv commercial .. could save many lives if we would wake up and start listening to dr berg and the likes of.
@@jesus_rt345 super clean low carb .. reputable free range source of protein and fats, cold water wild caught fish, pesticide free veggies from local farmers markets that I have personally visited there farms.. zero alcohol zero tobacco, very low dairy.. perform detox regularly as a way to flush my kidney to keep it happy by a simple mixture of ACV, cranberry juice, lemon and filtered water. Also IF every week. Exercise daily …Low HR exercises with some high intensity and some heavy weight lifting worked in. Never under any circumstance allow myself to dehydrate. Take capsules of turmeric/ginger, stinging nettle root, and zinc. Hope this helps .. I’ve noticed a major difference in all aspects of my life in a very short time of switching to this way. Still I research to improve on this
I love listening to your videos, so thank you. Also, in my last pregnancy I was peeing all the time but hardly anything around week 34. My blood work showed low ferritin which made no sense to me at all. To this day I wondered why the low ferritin and now it makes sense. My baby turns out had hydrops and I developed mirror syndrome. She was also severely anemic at birth. The rest is still a mystery, but some interesting clarity over the red blood cell situation finally. She pulled through it all(she had a list of complications) and now she is perfectly fine. Ps your beard is awesome 👌
I have followed your advice and am in better shape now, lost 11kg with exercising and fasting for 23h/day. Love your Advises Dr, but I wish if you can get a better microphone. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Great video! I’ve experienced everything on the list especially being cold. Until I was diagnosed with kidney failure. Thank you so much Dr. Berg for your great work. Wish I had discovered your channel years ago. God bless 🙌🏼
Thank you! I’m doing great. I have to deal with fatigue, stress management, weight management all time. But, I’m blessed cuz my dad donated his kidney to me.
Hi can you tell me how they found out you have kidney disease . what specifics can you share please. Did you blood tests come out bad? Hope you are great!
Ive only 1, got my left one removed 20yrs ago, feeling very well and healthy, even though I have a big time drink 5days a week! Just want to share that Info with you
I find it better watching your video's than talking to my GP. I have been suffering for a while now with a number of issues that cross different problems. No GP has a clue. Nausea in the mornings and vomiting Bloated Dizzy Very Fatigued but struggle to sleep Low Appetite Feeling sick while eating Sweet smelling Urine, like sugar puffs Urinating alot more (I was told a few years ago I have a non alcoholic fatty liver but lost alot of weight since that. 20stone to 16stone)
Hi Dr Berg been watching your vids for a while now and the knowledge you have is amazing. I was diagnosed recently with medullary sponge kidney which is quite rare and was given no help or info from my GP. If you have the time someday could you do a vid about what you know about this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you 👍
Thank you very much, Dr. Berg! I have a question if you don't mind. When I travel, I usually have swollen legs and back pain. Are those signs of toxic kidney too? Thanks in advance!!!!
Thanks for the presentation and analysis. Thanks to a lot of your suggestions, my eating habits are good. Gave up all recreational drugs 32 years ago. A few of these symptoms are the same as my prostate problems.
Did 24 hour protein loss urine test along with hematology blood sample , came out just fine. Since COVID vaccine shot, I've been passing out foamy urine and generally feeling weak.
I wish he would do a video on sezuires. My daughter has them and we don't know why. She's on 3 types of medicine. Still having faith that she will be healed.
ALHAMDULILLAH I'm glad i discovered your chanel today you are doing an amazingly good deed educating people sharing your precious knowledge with others may ALLAH ALMIGHTY bless you jazakALLAH khair Thanks alot
I mean I eat a lot of protein per day and pee a lot. But I also drink 1 gallon + of water (generally mixed with a water flavorer powder) . I hope nothing is wrong with me
I think it depends on the amount of urine you pee. If its frequent but only little that can be a problem. But if its the normal or a lot it means ur hydrated or overhydrated
Another reason to stop drinking alcohol. I stop drinking 2 small pots of coffee a day on a empty stomach, my gut health was better in two days of not having coffee, with milk in it. Your beard looks cool! Another excellent video Thanks!
This is extremely good explanation interesting to watch and learn I gave up alcohol 6 years back and rarely have sugar plenty of fluids and fresh produce ♥️
Thank you, Dr. Berg. The ureter on my left side was discovered to be larger, and am wondering if a misaligned spine affects organs like the kidneys. I have spina bifida oculta and have often had lower back pain. I don't know if it is all related. My urine and blood tests came out normal, but the x-rays showed blockage and enlargement on the left ureter.

@@onBview I’m sorry, I never saw this comment. It was a process of a couple years. It happened because I was in such terrible pain. I knew I needed to change what I was doing and I started researching better ways to get healthy. I started to eat only organic food and started drinking natural juices and smoothies. I quit all fast food and stopped drinking surgery drinks. I quit all pills, and, not that I recommend it, but I replaced the pills with cannabis. I don’t smoke anymore but it helped me for a time. Getting healthy can be tough at first because we get set in bad habits but it’s worth it . Not only will we be healthier and live longer but we are in less pain also. I truly suggest what Dr Berg is recommending. May God bless you with wisdom and strength to make the proper changes.
@@adambuchanon995 thank you, although I don’t agree with most of what our government does, it was honor to serve our nation.
@@Fit.For.A.Firefight. Many thanks for still taking time to respond, I appreciate that. Also glad you are doing well. I have greatly improved and still on the journey. Many thanks again🙏🏽
Your so right I was on dialysis for 5 years had a transplant, and no information on diet etc doing good from doing my own research great video as always
Thank you Dr Berg, I left a reply asking for you todo a video on the kidneys and many people come together to help, as well as yourself. I had a scan yesterday and the nurse said they seem ok nothing obvious, but I'm going to go clean and follow your success story's. Thank you to you and everyone in the comment section from previous videos, I wish you all the best in your healthy life style.
Everything I have learned here saved my life last year. I want to thank you.
I have some symptoms but in the last 8 weeks I have itchy hands, arms, feet. Doctor told me to take antihistamines and cream but still not going away. My bloods came back as Satasfactory. I don't have much trust as same Doctor told me I was fine and able for work for 8 weeks, so I went to the hospital. Gallbladder was full of stones so had keyhole to remove.
I have been watching your content, very pleased with your professional and detailed information.
If you consume alcohol drink alot of water, it has helped me alot I have noticed big improvements in a lot of issues I was noticing in my body and I reduced my alcohol intake. I didn't drink a lot but the people I associated with did and I tried to keep up with them, but everyone's body is different and I started noticing I couldn't consume alcohol like before. I'm just giving advice yheres more to tell but the message is the importance of water, good clean water.
Add some fresh squeezed lemon in with this as well and in the morning and before bed try hot water with lemon x BOOM you really notice the difference... water is great however have a listen to Dr bergs chats on what to add into water x
How much do you drink if I may ask
@@Kyle-zz4mr recently I started drinking probably 6-8 beers a week but I need to cut that down. I'm doing better because before I would only drink 1-2 beers and I would start feeling sick and dizzy.
@@juliorosales468 ya that’s about what I consume to and really need to cut back my self my feels funny at times
Just stop consuming alcohol.
Very informative and comprehensive. Thanks Dr. Berg for your great and to the point videos. You respect to your audience's time and you always give practical ways that helps our health. That's why I always follow and watch your channel.
My father has DM2 & does try to maintain a low carb & protein diet, but he doesn’t like seeing how frail he’s become just skin & bones. To counter that, he would increase his protein intake.
It’s a disservice to patients when medical professionals do not advise patients on specific diets to maintain.
I appreciate channels like yours because I want to understand not only the conditions but the reality of what it would mean to manage it in everyday life.
Thanks.
I hope your dad is doing okay 🙌
I watched your video and discovered what my mother had, sadly I couldn't work more then 16 hours to save my mother, her medical bills were very high. She passed away at the age of 55
My mom passed away the same age & from the same problem as your mom ,...😢 I miss her so much as I'm sure you miss yours
My daughter had a kidney transplant last year and I was quite dismayed at the total lack of concern her team had for her diet.
They think its amusing that kids eat pure trash. Its insane.
in 2012-2013, I had a roommate, one of my best friends, I used to ask him, why even after you flush the toilet some foam and oil remains? We had no clue it was related to kidneys. Later I changed my city and then he came against kidney problem, and later he was in dialysis, we lost him last year 2021. It was so much sadness and helplessness. this kind of knowledge should be a part of educational books. we could save so many people.
Yes.
Puffiness around the eyes can be explained by the kidneys leaking a large amount of protein into the urine, rather than holding it and distributing it throughout the body. The increased level of toxins makes it difficult to sleep. For this reason, when you get less sleep, you increase the chances of deteriorating kidney function.
I had that and decreasing protein improved that . Thank goodness
@@emh8861 🤲🤲🌸🌸
Can you have dark circles under eyes without puffiness? I have them but I got all the blood and urine tests for kidneys and they are functioning well
@@omaramr7969 assuming you are getting enough sleep, you my have an iron deficiency.
@@omaramr7969 Some get dark circles from allergies/intolerances to food or something used on the skin/hair etc Often you also get a blocked nose to some extent.. Try an elimination process and work out if going about a week strictly without a food or product makes a difference. Gluten, dairy, corn and peanuts are the ones I've seen most likely to cause this type of reaction. All the best with it.
Wooow this was really helpful all those signs just pointed to me and now I know why that frequent weight gain because water was being deposited into other parts of my body. My left ankles is always swollen and puffy, tired through out the day, feeling cold when is it 30c outside, foaming urine. I will definitely see a doctor and start eating healthy
Not that most doctors know about this.
Just start following Berg, why see a mainstream doctor that will just try to give you pharmaceuticals?
R u diabetic ?
Every time watching Dr Berg Videos I badly regret why I didn’t choose medical instead accounting😕His clarification of medical research more detailed than my doctor!! THQ DR.Berg🥰 MAY GoD bless you 🙏
Good to refresh my memory on why I need to keep trying to stay low carb.
I have been indulging too much even though I know and felt how much keto and IF helps me.
Dr.Berg helped out by watching his videos to loose 32 pounds of my weight , for many years I had fatty liver, last week my doctor told me my liver is okay , Thanks a lot Dr.Berg ,God bless you.
Awesome 👏 was he curious of how you achieved this success??
I have fatty liver too and have signs of toxic kidneys, had gallbladder surgery what died did you follow I want to heal too 🙏🏼
@@jesus_rt345 Follow the KETO diet along with Dr. Berg's videos, and try to watch them all.
- Remember the three (3) death foods:
Grains, - Wheats, - and Sugar (sugar, being the worse).
Report back when the results emerge, we're curious to know.
When I had kidney failure the doctors gave me no advice. They just blamed it on exercise and couldn't pinpoint any reason. Thank you for the help.
You explained things in such a simplistic way! Dr. Berg You Truly are appreciated! Greetings from Seattle 👍😉
Simple way - not "simplistic" - try to keep it simple. 😄
@@Tryagain563 same meaning hehe lol
Dr. Berg, humanity will remember you for your philanthropy for a long long time...Thank you so much Doc
i had these symptoms from dehydration after I removed heavy metals with iodine which gave me diarhea. I had kidney pain, muscle weakness, itchiness etc. And no I dont eat sugar or grains LOL. Drink water and help your kidneys. :)
Your are the best doctor giving medical information on this channel
The foam in the urine could be from the water in the bowl, the angle or pressure. I have foamy urine over 35 years and normal kidneys.
Some foam is normal, when you have stage 4 or 5 kidney disease, it’s really foamy and it’s doesn’t look normal at all. It’s like a lot dish soap was added to the toilet
Feeling relaxed after reading your comment. I was afraid as I do also have foamy urine problem.
@@Yespk-bo2xeme too 😢
Thank you very very much .... Seeing foam in morning pee .. I was very anxious... now with the video and your comment .. i am relieved...🙏🏻🙏🏻
This doctor reveals lot of really amazing facts.
Glad you found the video helpful!
Dr. Berg's Support Team.
Dr. Berg, I want to say that I LOVE your lists!! I had encephalitis and sepsis in 2010 and since then, find my short term memory to be little more than a puff of air sometimes lol Your lists help me retain your important points. I wish everyone employed this teaching tool. Thank you SO much for communicating with various methods to help me retain what you're saying. :)
how did u get sepsis
I've only one doc, got my other one removed 19yrs ago, still your video is still very interesting
Thanks, Dr. Berg! I'm not Diabetic and have none of these symptoms - but good to know!
Very interesting. 🧐. Thank you. I use urine test strips every once in a while for protein, glucose, blood etc.
Human body is amazing.
Thank you Dr Berg for the LISTS!
& giving us BOTH the PROBLEM
& the SOLUTION! 💙
I have become a fan of your video's. They are so well presented, and not so long that there is too much to remember.
I was CKD stage 3 for probably 25 years, I knew about it from a chance blood exam around 20 years ago. For all that time I have been bouncing around 45-59 eGFR using combined information from yourself, Dr Ekberg, Dr Ken Berry MD, and Ivor Cummins, all via an initial intro from Dr John Bergman DC. All courtesy of UA-cam. My last test suddenly had me at 78 eGFR after taking on board the combined advice.
Whats your diet?
@capnpugwash5403 could you reach out to me about info with the diet you used.
@@paulgay4877basically low to no carbs. No seed oils, eat mostly carnivore with small amounts of veggies, using butter, avoiding margarine and vegetable shortening. Hardly ever eating fast food. Only small amounts of alcohol.
He is amazing.
And has been very helpful.
Eespecially to those who have been following him.
Thank you with much love and appreciation.🙂
Good Morning , Dr.Berg 🌞
I sure do appreciate you ! Thank you so much for sharing this important information with everyone .
Have A wonderful day , God bless richly you all !
❤ 4 / 7 / 2022 ❤
You save my life every day with knowledge on the anatomy
Thank you Dr. Berg. Your informative videos are a blessing to us all.
This makes me feel so afraid. I'm a former stage 3B rectal cancer patient. I eat eggs and besides that just green leafy vegetables, including multiple types of sprouts (both broccoli and radish), sauerkraut, cole slaw and beets. I don't over cook any green leafy veggies. I eat some carbs, like tortillas, but I read the packages to get the least amount. I had high gluclose levels the last time I had my blood work done (wasn't a fasting blood exam and I was drinking home made electrolytes - lemon, salt, maple syrup - since then I've switched to stevia) so I added more magnesium and chromium into my diet. I stayed away from the multi-grain breads and added turkey and salmon into my diet, even though I had been a vegan since 1990. All this is so new to me and I'm afraid of a fatty liver and toxic kidneys. I know you're too busy to respond to these messages but I feel like I'm failing my body. I'm 52, I walk 2 miles a day through hills, I do light stretching and sit ups daily but I don't feel like I'm 40 years old or anything close to the majority of these posts.
Dr berg you should add captions in other languages like hindi and others. It will help millions of people around the globe and your channel will also grow leaps
Hindi captions are automatically availability, plz check the setting of the video
@@johnishfaq6391 thanx
thx doc u change my mind on LIVING better
I can't get over how many things i have learned just by watching your channel. This video has certainly made me think about my sweet tooth.Thank you.
Yes! He made videos on how to stop sweet cravings, which helped me because I was definitely addicted.
This is so helpful)
Oncotic pressure, polyuria, proteinuria.
Thanks a million, that video is extremely useful to me as I have all the symptoms. That now makes more sense.
Thank you!!! Have a wonderful day to anyone who reads this . Happy body means happy life .
I had symptoms like that a while ago, for few days, then they vanished by themselves. I think milk thistle supplement, combined by garlic ones, can help in this case too. Thanks Dr Berg.
Yea garlic ones.
@@mrarivv0007 savage
@@mrarivv0007 If you're referring to the distinctive odour that garlic can make in the mouth, I don't have this prob, cause I chew fresh cloves regularly to kill any mouth bacteria. You should try that if you're concerned about using garlic regularly.

You are a treasure trove of information. I’m subscribed. Thanks for all of this information. I quit sugar because of you.
Great videos as always! Can you make one where you can tell us when there's irreversible kidney/liver damage, and when it can be healed?
Your videos are like attending a class with very useful information. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Thank you Dr. Berg. You described my exact condition.
I love the way you explain everything, straight to the topic and your videos are really helpful.
I'm honestly impressed by the time and effort you put into these videos. Keep it up! 🤚
You you deserve Something , many things!!!!!! Recognitions! Gratitude! Study. Following!! Etc etc Wow Thank you!!!!
Love Dr. Berg that I have been practicing homeopathy for over 10 years however Dr. Berg educates you on your anatomy and how it functions with wastes 🙏
If kidneys filter the blood, what does the liver do then? If it does the same thing, why have both organs? Love the video 👍👍
Always like watching your videos Dr Berg. Thanks for explaining things so clearly and pushing to get on the right path
I’ve started my IF + Keto January 15 at 275lbs and my goal is 180lbs. In 3 months I am already at 210lbs (lost 65lbs). I’ve been alternating OMAD with daily 18/6 IF.
I was diagnosed with renal failure 6 weeks ago. Getting up 10 to 12 times a night to urinate. Very somatic holding fluids all over my body. My bladder retention was 1400cc’s due to major prostrate blockage I had TURP performed a week ago dr removed a grape size piece that was blocking urine flow. Due to being born with only one kidney I have been studying as much information I can to protect it by proper nutrition changes to my diet. Im 50 and for the first time in my life I’m hearing the high % of men affected by prostrate issues which leads to kidney and liver issues as well as others. Dam shame this is not on every tv commercial .. could save many lives if we would wake up and start listening to dr berg and the likes of.
What diet do you follow in order to protect your kidneys? Please help
@@jesus_rt345 super clean low carb .. reputable free range source of protein and fats, cold water wild caught fish, pesticide free veggies from local farmers markets that I have personally visited there farms.. zero alcohol zero tobacco, very low dairy.. perform detox regularly as a way to flush my kidney to keep it happy by a simple mixture of ACV, cranberry juice, lemon and filtered water. Also IF every week. Exercise daily …Low HR exercises with some high intensity and some heavy weight lifting worked in. Never under any circumstance allow myself to dehydrate. Take capsules of turmeric/ginger, stinging nettle root, and zinc. Hope this helps .. I’ve noticed a major difference in all aspects of my life in a very short time of switching to this way. Still I research to improve on this
God bless you.. Dr.. for enlightening us.
I love listening to your videos, so thank you. Also, in my last pregnancy I was peeing all the time but hardly anything around week 34. My blood work showed low ferritin which made no sense to me at all. To this day I wondered why the low ferritin and now it makes sense. My baby turns out had hydrops and I developed mirror syndrome. She was also severely anemic at birth. The rest is still a mystery, but some interesting clarity over the red blood cell situation finally. She pulled through it all(she had a list of complications) and now she is perfectly fine.
Ps your beard is awesome 👌
I have followed your advice and am in better shape now, lost 11kg with exercising and fasting for 23h/day.
Love your Advises Dr, but I wish if you can get a better microphone.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Here, saving our lives. Thank you! 🌿
Dr. Berg, thank you very much for this information.
You are very welcome! Thank you for your message.
Love everything you do God bless you for all the time you put into giving us this information xx
Great video! I’ve experienced everything on the list especially being cold. Until I was diagnosed with kidney failure.
Thank you so much Dr. Berg for your great work. Wish I had discovered your channel years ago. God bless 🙌🏼
How is ur health now? I hope u r doing well
Thank you! I’m doing great. I have to deal with fatigue, stress management, weight management all time. But, I’m blessed cuz my dad donated his kidney to me.
Hi..that cold feeling u experience is it only on your feet or you feel cold throughout your body ? Hope you are doing well 😊
Thank you! It was mostly on my lower back then my whole body.
Hi can you tell me how they found out you have kidney disease . what specifics can you share please. Did you blood tests come out bad? Hope you are great!
Ive only 1, got my left one removed 20yrs ago, feeling very well and healthy, even though I have a big time drink 5days a week! Just want to share that Info with you
Dr Berg = Hero in the medicine realm👌
I find it better watching your video's than talking to my GP.
I have been suffering for a while now with a number of issues that cross different problems. No GP has a clue.
Nausea in the mornings and vomiting
Bloated
Dizzy
Very Fatigued but struggle to sleep
Low Appetite
Feeling sick while eating
Sweet smelling Urine, like sugar puffs
Urinating alot more
(I was told a few years ago I have a non alcoholic fatty liver but lost alot of weight since that. 20stone to 16stone)
Hi Dr Berg been watching your vids for a while now and the knowledge you have is amazing. I was diagnosed recently with medullary sponge kidney which is quite rare and was given no help or info from my GP. If you have the time someday could you do a vid about what you know about this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you 👍
He may have answered this in some of his videos on kidneys health & issues?
Dear Dr Berg, please accept my heartfelt Thank You 💐
Thank you very much, Dr. Berg! I have a question if you don't mind. When I travel, I usually have swollen legs and back pain. Are those signs of toxic kidney too? Thanks in advance!!!!
I would think so, but he explained these in some of his videos on each of these situations.
My urine doesn't smell like ammonia, but on those hot humid days during the summer,after having worked outside all day, carpenter, my sweat will.
Thanks for the presentation and analysis. Thanks to a lot of your suggestions, my eating habits are good.
Gave up all recreational drugs 32 years ago.
A few of these symptoms are the same as my prostate problems.
Did 24 hour protein loss urine test along with hematology blood sample , came out just fine. Since COVID vaccine shot, I've been passing out foamy urine and generally feeling weak.
D3&K2 & potassium & b1 help a lot with these. Dr Berg made videos on amounts needed, ect.
24 hours !?..
What's the name of this 24 hr protien loss urine test?
I wish he would do a video on sezuires. My daughter has them and we don't know why. She's on 3 types of medicine. Still having faith that she will be healed.
I drank some protein powder once and my kidneys and back hurt all day and night
ALHAMDULILLAH I'm glad i discovered your chanel today
you are doing an amazingly good deed educating people sharing your precious knowledge with others
may ALLAH ALMIGHTY bless you

Thanks alot
I mean I eat a lot of protein per day and pee a lot. But I also drink 1 gallon + of water (generally mixed with a water flavorer powder) . I hope nothing is wrong with me
I think it depends on the amount of urine you pee. If its frequent but only little that can be a problem. But if its the normal or a lot it means ur hydrated or overhydrated
This video saved my life. Thanks Doctor
Caramelized blood vessels? Sounds like a great dessert!
😂
Gracias x la información me es muy útil ya que tengo problemas con los riñones y el hi GA do

Another reason to stop drinking alcohol. I stop drinking 2 small pots of coffee a day on a empty stomach, my gut health was better in two days of not having coffee, with milk in it. Your beard looks cool! Another excellent video Thanks!
That's good. Thank you for your comment!
Two questions: 1. Can the nefrons heal; and 2. Can microplastics damage nefrons?
He made videos answering each of these questions.
This is extremely good explanation interesting to watch and learn I gave up alcohol 6 years back and rarely have sugar plenty of fluids and fresh produce ♥️
Thank you, Dr. Berg. The ureter on my left side was discovered to be larger, and am wondering if a misaligned spine affects organs like the kidneys. I have spina bifida oculta and have often had lower back pain. I don't know if it is all related. My urine and blood tests came out normal, but the x-rays showed blockage and enlargement on the left ureter.
Bingo. It's called a muscle imbalance. They affect your posture and organ/tissue function. Exercise and yoga will help.

Every time I tune in to Dr. Berg, I'm like wow he looks GREAT!!!!! Maturing like fine wine....So I'm here for all the information!!!! My family is healing! Thank you!
Wow lol it’s funny but still sad situations of doctors needing the data more than their patients!!! Anyways so happy for you, you found the way out!!! Thanks for sharing!
What kinda herbs
The only time one should need a doctor is in a emergency. They don't know anything about health or prevention
🤯😭 DAMMIT this means I've gotta cut my daily Protine shakes down to only 6 a day.🤣
But SERIOUSLY now, Thanks Doc I've listened to you for year's.🙏🏼
Yup. Your videos woke me up to stop drinking alcohol. My lower back hurt at times especially when i was drinking 6 to 8 beers. No more lower left back pain after 3 days of no drinking. My urine is back to normal and im taking kidney friendly supplements and food. Jeez. Health scare is needed sometimes to get you to change your habit for a healthier lifestyle.
