Classic line "I'm not making this up"
I love this because your message is serious however you do not take it serious presenting it in a way that it is non-threatening if you will. It's just facts and logic.
Love you Dr Hyman and everything you stand for sir. We appreciate your advocation and educating us
And I appreciate you as a human being. Just keep going brother 💪🌟💙
Supplements DO WORK. High dose of Omega threes and Vitamin D3 has me off my anxiety medication. So thankful for Dr. Hyman.
@@aliciaheisey5194 Whats your vitamin d dosage?
Yeah Omega 3 helps me in the dark winters
@@NightRider0101Don't consume more than 4000IU daily . Take one with vitamin K2 MK7 variant to help with absorbing. Magnesium later in the day ideally before bed to activate vitamin D. Magnesium most are deficiency is even more common. Best form is gylycinate or Citrate , but you can take mix one too . I hope this helps
@@aliciaheisey5194 how bad was your anxiety ? What medication and how long were you on it ? Would you mind sharing your supplement doses ? Sorry for so many questions.
I want off my medication too. Happy for you :)
@@NightRider0101 regular dr recomended D3 500IU, I did not see any result until I did K2/D3 1000 IU twice a day (yes 2000 IU a day) which I ended up upping to 6000IU. Auto-immune diseases can be treated with 6000-10000 IU D3 a day spread over twice a day. Also I found drops were not as affective for me as gummies .. I think the sugar changed the stomach acid maybe - idk
Came off 2 cardiac drugs with potassium, magnesium, trace minerals
Why? I take those. Just wondering if I should get off of them?
Which meds
Thanks for sharing this. Just finished reading "Health and Beauty Mastery" - what an eye-opener! This book exposes so many hidden truths about the health industry that no one talks about! I completely changed my habits
I heard about this
Truly a good book
Thanks
I got it, one of the best books ive read
Not only is he a great doctor but he has an open mind to natural medicine as well he’s a legend. But he also has a fantastic personality doctors just don’t have this. They should watch his videos and learn something
I did the functional test and the site gave me a great picture and empowered me to take better care of myself. When I went to have the blood test, the technician was astonisheded at how in-depth and how many the tests tubes it took! She had never performed that much. It is AMAZING!
I went to the sight, but see it's in the beta stage. We're you able to sign up? Maybe your talking about something else
Can you tell me how many vials ? Thx
I'm a carrier for biotinidase deficiency. I tested and have 50% normal levels of the enzyme. If you read about it, I shouldn't have any issues unless I only around 10% to 15% normal levels. Yet, as soon as I started supplementing biotin, I no longer had problems with hypoglycemia that mysteriously started plaguing me in my 50s. Coincidentally or not, that's about when I stopped taking a multivitamin that I'd taken my entire life.
Love this advice!! I started listening to your podcast a few years ago when I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. I went to a holistic Dr and I have improved so much! I have even started a UA-cam channel where I show the lifestyle changes I’ve made and recipes that can help others too. Thank you for educating me!
Dr Hyman has been my doctor for over 10 years and doest know it. lol I signed up for Function and missed my deadline two days ago. I was traveling. I’ll sign up again.
Can you please share with us your top vitamin brands/companies? Thank you!
Years ago I kept getting muscle cramps. I would wake up in the middle of the night with leg cramps. I would get cramps in my leg while driving. Cramps from simply laughing. I would eat bananas and drink a lot of overpriced SmartWater. Nothing worked until a co-worker suggested I take magnesium. It worked immediately. I went from getting nightly leg cramps to none at all with just one dose.
Magnesium relaxes muscles
I don't suppose you stopped at one dose.
restless legs could be low magnesium OR IRON
It’s also crucial to help absorb nutrients. With my genetic mutations, I suffer if I don’t take Magnesium and so much more. It also helps with constipation.
Smart Water only have enough electrolytes for taste not for health:(
Best dr on planet earth
I take quite a concoction of supplements - ACV, Tumeric, Spirilina, Cayenne, Ashwaganda, Omega 3 6 9 and a good quality Multivitamin. Oh and NMN and Himalayan Salt
Thanks Dr Human for all your good work. God bless
15:53 I can attest to this. I eat a pretty well-balanced diet. Averaging about 6 cups of fruit and veg on a daily basis, 12 glasses of water (because I live in a hot climate), approx 75 g of protein daily, healthy fats and about 4000 to 6000 steps daily. Still, I've had terrible hairloss because of a stressful job and a recent injury. Supplementation brought my body back into some kind of balance, stemmed the hair shedding within one month and thickened my hair over the next few months.
Which supplements did you take for that?
So what supplements did you take? Please share.
I have read many books, I listened to many UA-cam videos by many of the world's leading gurus and health experts but nothing came close to the hidden herbs by anette ray. I recommend everyone giving it a read.
read it a few days ago, truly a great book
great book for everyone searching just found it on her website just search for the hidden herbs
Thanks, will look it up
Bot…? 🤨
Tks 4 sharing this book👍
Great video. So glad you’re covering supplemental deficiencies and what nutrients to take to eliminate potential illnesses. Very important.
This video has great info and easy to understand.
Thank you, Dr. Hyman for all your content and fighting a good fight! I have been following you for years and have learned so much from you. Your content is a resource I use with my clients 💗🕊️
Thank you for your knowledge 🙏 🙏 you have really helped me
This is great information. Thank you!
Thanks Mark for sharing these truths
Great longevity content. Thank you Dr. Hyman
Can I get a link to the test sight for the nutritional assesment?
Amazing video Dr Hyman. I follow your advice and tips.Question: As a postmenopausal woman in my early fifties do I need to take the vitamin D alone or with K2? Thank you for all the knowledge you so generously share 🤗
Just watch out for seed oils in some d3 supplements
You need to have you d and k2 checked to see where you are at and if you need it.
The high-end companies like pure e cap and thorne have both been sold. Don’t know if that will change the doctors opinion
Its interesting to me about the new regarding the dangers of supplements. The only time I see the dangers of them is in the mainstream media. What is your experiences with the dangers of taking them?
How do you know what to take ( or not take) together? Very confusing. Help
I eat a package of the roasted seaweed snacks everyday and I always have great iodine levels. I get the one with avocado oil and sea salt and I think it’s pretty good 😊
Do you know how much arsenic, lead and cadmium are in those seaweed snacks and did you get a heavy metal urine test to find out?
@@Jeffs60 yes, and it always comes back nothing. The levels of heavy metals in the seaweed snacks are comparable to those found in many vegetables, such as spinach and carrots, as well as some types of fish and shellfish.
Dr. Hyman, this was incredibly informative. The discussion about long-term deficiencies leading to chronic issues made me think of how common these hidden problems are. Many people experience fatigue or other issues without realizing it’s due to something like a magnesium deficiency, which can often be corrected with proper supplementation. Your advice on testing rather than guessing is crucial.
Given the widespread nature of deficiencies, what tests or panels do you recommend for getting a comprehensive view of nutrient levels?
Love listening to you - it’s always good🤩
I have swallowed all minerals and essential nutrients for many many yrs, because if our shitty soil
I am thriving. I have all the tests done you talk about .
I feel amazing. I also have weight trained for over 30 yrs . I am 57 now 💪🏼
Hormone replacement is also just a given 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Actually, if our soil was “shittier,” fertilized with real animal manure instead of minimal chemicals that don’t comprise a healthy natural mix, we might be better off.
@@suzanneemerson2625🤣🤣
Dr Mark do you have an opinion on hyaluronic acid as a supplement for osteoarthritis? Or other recommendation to reverse osteoarthritis if possible? Ty!
What about NMN versus NMNH?
Why do you not do timestamps?
Thank you dr for all the great information! I would like to ask you a question please? As you mentioned we all need large amount of protein, how about a person who has kidney function problem and excretion of protein with urine?
I’d appreciate if you could give me an advice 🙏🏻🙏🏻
He can’t give you this info., but you can look it up. There are other utubers that talk on this.
See Dr Ken Berry's video about carnivore diet effect on kidneys.
@@kimbermountains7464 thank you 🙏🏻
@@roxannebudd1978 thank you and i appreciate if you could give me some names of the channels or Dr.s
Mark, I would like to see Mary Ruddick to your podcast.
You can never get enough minerals and vitamins from your diet, good advice.
Follow directions don't take more unless advised by doc
Acid rain altered mineral content in soils. That's why we have deficiencies even if you eat well.
hahaha... glyphosate, you know, monsanto, chelate the minerals out of your body... thank god BIG PHARMA is there , right? acid rain, lol
@@g.s.5868 there are many factors. But yeah. Don't believe me? Look it up. Magnesium especially.
I am taking 30k units V-D3 daily to prevent gout which my brother discovered worked for his 6 years ago. Haven't had an attack since.
Whats a good multivitamin
Thorne
Endocrine disruptors like fluoride disrupt iodine.
and chlorine and bromine
I wish you were in the UK.😢😢
As a pirate I really think your information about C-vitamine was mindblowing
Needs a short summary of this. Seems a lot of info is repeated.
True I noticed that on other videos too.
From what i researched on the IFOS you submit your omega3 to them and they do rigorous test on your product for quality and freshness and oxidation levels make sure your getting the best and freshest fish 🐟 in your omega3 with out all the toxins
First 🎉 keep up the content!
I used to take a lot of concoctions until I found out a yr ago that all my problems were from a histamine intolerance. I had to go off all fermented foods, yogurt, sawerkault, ACV, all citrus, tomatoes, chocolate & the list goes on & on, etc..😪 It was a real-life changer. 😢😢😢
Have you tried supplementing copper for it ?
@LeComteDorer, Copper?? What do U mean? 🤔🤔
@@louisethompson6762 histamine intolerance is basically a histamine overload ==> body is unable to detoxify it ==> Dao is the main histamine detoxifying enzyme in thé body ==> Dao needs copper as co factor.
I cured crazy histamine intolerance (rashes all over the body, insomniaque, migraines) by supplementing 8mg of copper glycinate per day for 2 months.
I can now eat a lot of protéin (amino acides ==> amines) and histamines rich foods with 0 downsides 😉
Please just list the Vits .p.s. i have tried several times to get your test with mo reply
He should just list Vitamins but if he does listeners will not listen to rhe full podcast
Wish I new the best brand of vitamins.
Me too!
🤔very interesting
Where to test vitamins ?
No doctor tests for extra vitamins because those tests are not FDA approved and they are not that accurate.
OMGGG my numbers are so low ....I keep asking my doc why are they so low...I don't want a pill lets find the cause.....
When will function health be available to Canadians?
You can go to a naturopath doctor. It's not covered by OHIP.
when nunavut thaws
We should have more coverage especially those with low income.I am from BC.
I'm curious... After reading the list if ingredients in the AG1 supplement referenced on here, the amounts per serving are miniscule, unless you take way more than the label recommends. I take a regimen of vit/supplements everyday, way more than the AG1 supplement offers. It also has pea protein, soy, and Stevia, which can cause many side effects, things that a LOT of people have problems taking. I regularly watch your show, because my doc recommended it. He's trying.
❤but when you are young, you must be very much more efficient, and able to get all of these vitamins and minerals out of the food, because when I was young, I had very few problems , except some acne. But now at older age, I need supplements of them, and I know I need them, because before I was taking supplement , I started to have different problems, like being vertigo unable to resist colds and flu, and even got seriously ill with every flu. Now with supplements, I don’t get the flu, or if I do, it is very light. And I have even reversed some problems from before . I think that my eyesight, especially night vision have improved!!
how old are you? food is junk now, did you eat junk when young?
A great presentation….
You hav explained the micro deficiencies very clearly n in a succint manner…👏👏🌺🌺
Hey Doc, do you know anyone in the UK that does all these tests?
Look at Laury Try’s UA-cam video on supplements and blood work, she is working with one of the best, if not the best in the UK, Phil Richard’s.
You didnt tell which supplements you take. I am taking the following, hope am not doing anything wrong. I am a bit over weight and suffer from high BP and fatty liver.
Vitamin D
Milk thistle
NAC
Magnesium Glycinate
Ashwagandha (Indian herb)
Coq10
I am 43 year old male
Maybe try to do 30 min of exercise 5 days a week to get your blood circulating. Try taking the real herbs turmeric and garlic and ginger and lemon. I was able to fix myself
If I were you I would add walking and cut carbohydrates. God bless you.
@@freddyheynssens1950 Yes I am doing that. 2 meal a day strict keto.
@@NightRider0101 hi
I have to ask, if it's impossible to get what you need from eating foods, such as magnesium as you said, why didn't people die off before?
I think what Dr. Hyman means is that it is impossible to get OPTIMAL levels of vitamins and minerals from diet ( due to depleted soils, With suboptimal nutritional problems stAtus the health issues happen slowly over years .People can die from severe nutritional deficiencies, forinstance sailors used to die of survey on long voyages.
Are the vitamins of Jamieson ok?
Only with ice cubes and coke!!!
@@mikeburda3038 you must be kidding.
75 gram's of protein is very low. If you are working out you should be eating at least 1 gram per pound of weight.
is an omega3 with the IFOS ok International Fish Oil Standard a good omega3 to take? , I didn't hear you talk about that
Solgar Omega 3 is the best
I would like to know what you recommend as far as brands for especially multi minerals that are easily absorbable. Would you also recommend a functional medicine Drs in Tulsa, Oklahoma area. I am 70 years old and on Medicare I don’t know if it covers functional medicine. I have suffered from allergies all my life and it has gotten worse where I cannot touch my dog because I start itching. I wake in the middle of the night several times with stuffy nose because I can’t breathe. I am suffering.
Quercetin is the best supplement for that! Check it out!
Why is there 300,000 on the waiting list, and how long does it take to get a test. Is this not ready to go at this time or in beta?
I was in the wait list for maybe three days and that’s it 😊
Chlorella has b12 as does moringa.
also arsenic and lead...
Eggs and meat have enough. Don’t need to concentrate from a million leaves from a plant to get some.
@@jorgecastillo6128 incorrect, meat is injected 💉 with b12 it doesn't actually have any without being injected with. Eggs have it yes. Most meat eaters lack b12 for your information. Either way being vegan its easy to get as long as you have the above supplements. Too much mass misinformation come from meat eaters. They can never win against truth. Eating death lowers your frequency and we have always been in a frequency war on earth against cabal. Higher our frequency more powerful we become.
@@jorgecastillo6128 moringa comes in powdered form BTW easy to consume.
Or you can just eat more meat and eggs.
It’s crazy no one here is talking about the hidden herbs by Anette Ray…

Carnivore diet naturally provides the vitamins and nutrients you need
Hi Dr is Berberine a good vitamin to take daily?
It's not a vitamin,it is a vegetal acolid, it works on sugar blood and loose weight
Would it be possible for all the doctors of functional medicine sit down and agree on utube and agree on finalizing certain opinions. You confuse us with the amount of opinions on every subject.. PLEASE do it!
Need too show on chart
Only issue is the big name brands dr speaks of - the two biggies have been sold
whole vid is just an ad, don't waste time
Dont have tine for this longggggg video, just list the supplements
I'm vegan and my doctor is so impressed with my bloodwork that she consults with me.... don't generalize about vegans.... some of us know what we are doing. :)
Very long video

You are what you eat. Your diet impacts your health.
Lower stress, reduce obesity, get enough sleep and more exercise are key to a healthy life.
Obesity in children and adults is rising across the world.
Fast food and sugary drinks including fruit juices are contributing to the problem of poor health and obesity.
Eat a healthy plant based diet and exercise regularly.
Reduce or ELIMINATE cows milk, eggs, cheese and meat. Eat more salad greens, beans, fruit and vegetables. Eliminate fast food, snacks like cookies, cakes, chips, and sugary drinks and juices.
Every adult and child should own a bicycle and ride it regularly.
Regular exercise will help you sleep better. Yoga is a great stress reducer.
Obesity is all too common today. Get off the couch. Get off the phone, ipad or video game.
A variety of stretching and other exercises help with increased mobility.
Ride to work, ride to school, ride for fun.
Every city should be a bicycle city.
Speak up for bicycles in your community
hahaha, vegan ... depressed much... your veggies, sprayed with pesticides, even organic... do not have much nutrients... but WHATEVER... people are stuck in their ways and they want to enjoy their lives... we are not sheep or COWS...
We are what we eat. We are not plants. We are animals, we are made of meat. We should eat meat and animal products and eat as little plants as possible.
@@jorgecastillo6128 Your risk for heart disease and cancer increases with the more meat your eat.
Hello DR. Mark, respect your work but disagree on excessive D supplement and iron deficiency, instead retinol and bioavailable copper are the real deficiencies. Please interview Morley Robbins, his book “cure your fatigue” changed my life!!
No fortified foods adds Magnesium so what does that tell you? They do add B Vitamins and Iron but never Magnesium or Potassium.

Big profit margins on supplements.

ozempic? cost 1$ to make, sold at 1000$... yeah.. supplements are expensive, right, compared to BIG PHARMA GREED
@@g.s.5868 agree
@@charlesfuchs agree
as opposed to what?
People, NEVER start taking a supplement after watching some random guy on UA-cam. Always consult a doctor first.
Mark Hyman is not " some random guy", he is a physician who has extra training in nutrition. In the United States most physicians have no training in nutrition. As Dr Hyman says, it is best to test and see what deficiencies you have.Forinstance, I need fairly high levels of B12 supplementation to achieve therapeutic blood levels .
Most doctors don't know much about functional medicine
@utubewillis24
Doctors don't get any nutritional education period! Their job is to prescribe meds, NOT to get to the root of the problem. Taking the right supplements From a reputable source Is helpful for good health, longevity and vitality, But of course for anything absolutely critical, there are times medical intervention is necessary!
@rosemariebongiorno9025
For sure! Last year my bloodwork was terrible. I'm not overweight, but ate a normal American diet. High ldl, low hdl, high triglycerides. My md told me to lower cholesterol foods, eat less red meat and eat less saturated fat and recheck in 2 months. I did that and everything went up, tg to 333. Thank goodness I found Mark Hyman, Casey Means and others. Changed my diet completely. My hdl went up 25, ldl went down 35 and tgs to 74. My md asked what I did. Told him I'm eating a high fat, low carb, high cholesterol diet of mostly whole foods!
This man speaking in this video has zero credentials and zero qualifications or Ph.D in nutritional biochemistry so he should not be giving out diet advice to the public. Would you get dental work done by someone who has no license or experience in dentistry?
Most Westernized doctors have very little training in nutrients.Medical doctors treat patients with prescription drugs.
@@rhbarbs The reason doctors don't get nutrition training is the same reason they don't get training in how to read and write and stay fit. It is assumed that they learned how to read and write and do exercise and eat the right food when they went to public school grade 1-12. They teach all three for 12 years in the public school system.
There are 8.7 million of species, what types of Vitamin D have they been taking for the last 4 million years? In 1826 President John Adams was 90 and eating pretty good, what types of synthetic Vitamin D and K2 and other such nonsense was he taking for his entire life?
I'm ready for another political stunt. Where's R.F.K. Jr?
Mark HaYmAn, you don't look healthy yourself so YOU taking about HEALTH doesn't make any sense and that's why you have 82K views all this time. As a Jew to Jew, friend to friend LOL, find out and take care of your health if you want viewers. PEACE to Israel
