Its good to see your still uploading man. About two years ago i started my fitness journey and your videos with the no equipment were the ones that got me going. Since then, i have dropped 40 pounds of fat and added about 10-15 pounds of muscle and now have abbs. You probably wont see this comment but if you do just know to keep grinding and motivating because you change lives
Noticing how much you yourself are coming back Dr. Berg, your jaw line was collapsed along with other symptoms wow the Zinc connection truly bringing us back in defying the aging process.
This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos. I respect this man immensely. 🙏🙏🙏
@@Drberg I would definitely buy it. Or even a written version of your videos. I have a notebook already started with so much info that I get from you so that I can help my family members with health issues. NONE of our Drs promote nutrition and vitamins-they just push pills and it's really sad...
Great video, Dr. Berg! Zinc is indeed a powerhouse nutrient that often gets overlooked. As a fellow wellness creator, I appreciate how you highlighted its role in immune support and overall health. It's fascinating to note that zinc not only aids in enzyme function but also plays a critical role in DNA synthesis and cell division, which is vital for healing and growth. Additionally, I’d like to add that certain populations, such as vegetarians and pregnant women, may be at a higher risk for zinc deficiency due to dietary restrictions. Encouraging viewers to include zinc-rich foods like nuts, seeds, and legumes in their diets can be a great way to prevent deficiency. Thanks for shedding light on this important topic! Looking forward to more insightful content from your channel!
I have been subscribed to Dr. Berg for at least 8 years now, and will stay subscribed until the end! Best source of real health information out there. He is what every doctor should be.

Dr. Bergs channel is one of the most important and informative channels anyone can ever watch... I feel it should be shown in schools and universities... the information is so important to health and better living for everyone..
Amen. +. It should be part of the core curriculum vitae. Honestly and truly. Every person needs this knowledge to carry themselves through this life. And when talking to some of these physicians......👍🌞
Retired nurse here- thank you so much for providing information that will help all humans live well.this is information that your Dr will never be ELP you understand❤
I had been suffering from situational anxiety (social, public speaking, etc.) for years and didn't understand why. It was for stupid stuff too, that shouldn't have been a big deal. Seeing it in my family too, where some were overreacting to things. Long story short, found out my zinc was low and copper was too high. Started taking the bulletproof zinc/copper combo. Game changer! I'm finally feeling normal again.
@@11957gary Oh, thank you for sharing your concern. Early morning here, so I’m not as specific. The brand name is ZHOU and it actually is D3 + K2. This product can be found in Publix Supermarkets.
Wow, the timing of this video. I just got off the phone with my girlfriend and she was interested in getting bloods done, specifically for hormones and zinc. When she got blood work done previously and asked did it include zinc, her GP said "No it doesn't sure why would you want to know about that?". Needless to say, she no longer visits this doctor.
Candida feeds on zinc. That was the cause of my zinc deficiency. Zinc is needed for DHT production. Without it I had bad brain fog, no ability to feel sexual pleasure, and difficulty building muscle. Even taking TRT did nothing for me. Testosterone can't fully function without some of it being converted to DHT is what I've come find out. There is research that backs my personal experience out there if there's any doubt.
I quit taking testosterone years ago because I had quit feeling the benefits of it. When I first started it was great but after a while I didn't feel a difference if I missed 2-3 weeks or had my shot. What you're talking about could have been my problem. Definitely going to try zinc.
Hello. I’d like to add a statement to the thymus gland. So I HAD a hypothyroid issue and I was follow dr Westin Childs videos which lead me to his supplements. Now I didn’t pay for the supplements but I realized that it was a bunch of glandulars mixed in so I went to the Swanson website and ordered pituitary glandulars, thymus glandulars, adrenal glandulars thyroid glandulars and the multi glandular for women which contains uterine glandulars, ovarian glandulars, heart tissue, kidney tissue and liver tissue and it changed my entire life. Aging backwards is an understatement. I’m 28 but people thought I was a hard 34💔. I’ve been taking these glandulars for 3 weeks and the first thing I noticed was I was sleeping through the night. Second thing I noticed was my dreams came back because I had lost them for a couple years. I noticed less inflammation to the point where I was able to crack my back which is something I couldn’t do because I was so stiff and inflamed. Another crazy thing I noticed is fat in my face has come back but like in a good healthy way. My energy is amazing I’m not jittery or running on E. I wake up clear minded and I don’t already dread the day ahead which is what I love the most! I also have this new found capability to work out. My mind to body connection is finally back on track. For some reason I was having problems while working out where I couldn’t find my core and I couldn’t stay balanced and my center was just off and it was causing me to work out wrong which lead to minor injuries. I couldn’t explain it but now it is a thing of the past. I’ve been taking these glandulars for 5 weeks now . Every other day in the morning . I said all this just to say try glandulars .
I took Dr Child’s Glandular’s and my T4 & T3 dropped even lower; I’m a absolute hypothyroid mess so I don’t know if his supplements were to blame. I’m on 137 of Tirosint & 5 of Cytomel; I’m 120 lbs 5’6””. Endocrinologist will not increase my medication any further despite low numbers & terrible hypo symptoms. Any advice?
@@valeriewestphal2507 do you think that maybe your hypothyroid is a symptom to something bigger which is why when you tried to fix the thyroid it got worse because it’s not the primary problem ?
Dr Berg and everyone. I am 56, when I was 42 I changed my diet to include large amounts of Pumpkin seeds, Vit A foods, and fresh Berries, along with fresh leafy greens, at 37 I began taking Dark Chocolate baking powder (in the baking isle of store) Daily in my Coffee and making fresh Hot Chocolate, From that time and forward All joint pains vanished, Signs of aging are very slow, my Vitality was great until Covid which I am almost recovered from (everything was great until then) thank God. I write this to tell everyone these things matter. Thank you for all your Info I check in often!!!
I saw Greg Fahy give a talk last week. When I got home I went to page 235 of the Supergut book because I remembered there is a specific probiotic that is effective against viral respiratory illnesses. So I googled to see if this probiotic regenerates the Thymus gland and yes it does in mice! So I started fermenting it right away as I had some in the fridge. It's called Lactobacillus casei Shirota and the brand name is Yakult. ☺️
Since taking zinc with magnesium along with D3 and K2, the pre mature heartbeats I used to experience vanished completely! And they were occurring on a regular basis. There is another interesting good side effect for me Since taking these supplements my stools are a lot less smelly and the odor of flatulence is from little to none. Not sure why but there is definitely a significant difference!
@@louisd95714 Taking 100mg is a *lot* of zinc. Hopefully you are also considering your copper status. Supplements should be up to 40mg a day and 15mg is enough supplementation for most adults.
@@LupeC100 It just means to keep an eye on the temperature and to recognize patterns. I don’t medicate my kids for a fever unless it gets too high. I rarely have to medicate. You can find tables online for the ages of your children to know when a fever gets too high. When it does, that’s when you medicate and call a doctor. My mom always gave us a bath when we had a fever, to help lower it naturally a little. Also, a fever tends to go up in the middle of the night, and this is a natural pattern. If you let it do its work, then generally the fever will break in the morning. Because we don’t tend to medicate, the illness that causes it is healed quicker than when someone keeps medicating. The fever is hindered, and it can’t do its job because the fever keeps being lowered to where it is ineffective.
I take 50 MG in the evening with copper. But I understand if you have a poor immune system, you can take 75 to 100 mgs. I also take Vit D3 daily, and I am in the sun a couple of hours a day.
@@bonnieaanonsen7826what about diabetics? Do they need like 90-100 mg zinc daily? I look at my twinflame (im in separation with him) but he looks so pale and old Ive started fasting more and exercise even more. Have walked 20.000 steps today and been jogging 10 min too. Try to eat mostly low carb too. But I love sweets so I try to find sugar free things like sugar free ice cream, sugar free chocolate etc.. so I try to always have something in the house. Wondering if I should cut that out too, but I guess I have to try things to figure it out. Also stopped coffee with coffein for a while now to see if my sleep gets better, it has been really bad lately :/
As usual, Dr. Berg hit the nail on the head! Zinc plays a vital role in numerous bodily functions, from supporting our immune system to aiding in wound healing and even influencing our sense of taste and smell. What’s fascinating is that zinc is involved in over 200 enzymatic reactions, which means it’s essential for processes like protein synthesis and DNA synthesis. Make sure you get your zinc and copper in, folks!
Recently told I had low Vitamin D. I’m quite upset because over the years not one doctor or my nephrologist has tested my Vitamin D. I had a renal transplant in 2014 so have been having 0.025 calcitriol since then. I have has severe head sweats for the past 5 years. I did try the Botox but ceased after the second treatment due to the pain. I did ask my previous Nephrologist if it could be caused by the prograf I was on. He said no but didn’t suggest Vitamin D test. A bone density scan has shown that my L3 & L4 have osteoporosis. Hips and Neck of femur are osteopenia. This is why my new nephrologist tested my Vit D. I also have Bipolar Affective Disorder 1. I have had a lot of depression over the last 5 years whilst being on Sertraline and Lamictal. I spent 3 months in a private mental health clinic to change my antidepressant to Dothep. Now after learning about the low Vitamin D I wonder how long has it been low and how much of my depression, and all the other symptoms you list are from Vit D and not my Bipolar. I feel as though the last 5 years have been have lost. My Vit D =37. Healthy range is >50-125. I am on now on 0.050 micrograms.
@@stephennelson1687There are two things to consider when talking about seed oils. First, whether the seeds are organic or GMO. Second, the process used to create the oils. A good seed oil should be processed with the least amount of heat and no harsh chemicals.
Shingles: Lysine first and foremost. Avoiding nuts and seeds. Avoiding processed sugar + alcohol. Homemade hydroxychloroquine + zinc. Copper revolution protocol with emphasis on B1 (Thiamine). If you have it recurring you need to figure out what your triggers are and avoid them.
When I was a teenager, I drove a large spike into my shin area; led to gangrene. Many poultices. For decades the area had scab over where the hole was. Thin skin there, easily reopened. About two decades ago I heard how much Zinc helped to knit skin and I started supplementing. For the first time the area healed over with a bit thicker skin. Still taking Zinc, still healed over, even though I have scraped, cut, the area, it heals over normally.
I did a hair sample that said I was low in zinc, high in heavy mentals and low on some other minerals. Everything you said I have at a minimum of 4 of the 7. Thank you for sharing, till next time God Bless.
Doing nails for many years, the white horizontal spots on nails was also a sign of zinc deficiency; then my (young) child had a horrendous odor that even a bath would not eliminate- she had a zinc deficiency! I started giving her zinc tablets and that “stink like a skunk” 🦨 🫢 odor was eliminated. Her aunt from her paternal side also had this same problem, but unfortunately did nothing- and she “Stunk like a Skunk 🦨” her whole life. 🤦🏼♀️😓
I am a trained ophthalmologist. When I listened to this video I immediately went to PUB MED to restudy this subject. Everything he said about zinc and copper perhaps being important to help slow cataract formation is correct, although many of the studies were done in mice. Zinc and copper are important to decrease oxidative stress all over the body . But, no matter what, everyone is developing cataracts as they age and taking zinc and copper will not stop that. Dr. Berg did not have that quite correct. Most cataracts are due to the fact that the lens is an epithelial tissue and thus keeps growing as you grow. By the time you’re 60, your lens is a lot thicker than it was when you were born. Other changes occur which is seen in actual yellowing of the lens which the doctor can see at the slit lamp. These change are there in all patients in their 40’s so technically that’s a cataract. But most of us don’t mention them to patients until they start affecting the vision and the age range in that is vast (40- 90) and depends on many factors. Over the years the lens will get yellower and denser. If you don’t get it removed, it may even progress to a brown color. Many, many factors affect this process. Some people develop cortical cataracts, which are the cataracts that actually are white swaths in the lens and some have a combination of these two changes. These days in the hands of a skilled surgeon, cataract surgery is quick and very successful surgery. New lenses are inserted. You should not be afraid to have cataract surgery if you’re having trouble seeing and your ophthalmologist says the reason is cataracts. Barring a serious complication (.1% to 1% depending on the complication) you’ll see better immediately after the surgery. The surgery is done with topical anesthesia but most surgical centers use a little IV sedation to relax the patient along with that. I had one eye done with the sedation and the other without. I didn’t feel anything during either procedure but the sedation made some of the normal sensations easier to ignore. Just make sure your surgeon is experienced and uses the most modern techniques.
Thanks Dr. Berg I've learned so much from you in the short time since I found you're channel. They didn't teach this in college. Much Love and good health to you all💜😇
Dr. Berg I literally love you. I know you are a Top Tier Doctor for certain. I've commented on a few of your videos and I've put a lot of information to use. Realistically I can't afford insurance so I stick to healing myself with proper nutrition, Lifestyle eating and supplementing my body when necessary. I lowered my A1C down last year and I'm no longer pre diabetic, thank you again and again. Now I have other things to work on. I love you 😭🩷
In the eighties, Hans Napier of Germany did many published studies on zinc. Specifically zinc chelate. Since then, i believe citrate is best form. And its relatively inexpensive. Zinc citrate and magnesium citrate are needed by the body and the Krebs cycle. They are two miraculous minerals. Even for the healthy function of the thyroid gland and uptake. Great stuff. 👍🌞
Oh flipping heck I can’t drive at night, I’m over menopause but all the things I had suffered through it, came back worse, I’m on the list for cataract on both eyes and I have to get this checked out. Thank you Doctor
I’m 65. Eye Dr has said cataract surgery….I’ve put it off until I retire. In the meantime ; I’m additionally taking zinc and putting castor oil on my eyelids at night just before I put my glaucoma drops in. I’ve been doing this for two months and hopefully when I go back to the eye doctor in January, maybe there will be an improvement
I am so happy you exist. I don’t know how to tell you. I’m so grateful for your information and while your studies and your commitment to help and humanity. You have all my respect, Dr. Berg.!!!! and thank you!!!!!
I see a video to get multivitamins you can make a juice (seen in UA-cam video) with following ingredients 1) 4 soaked almonds 2) 6 soaked cashews 3) 2 table spoons soaked pumpkin seeds 4) 1 ripe banana 5) 2 seedless soaked Dates (we will use this water to make juice soak these in another container) Take all these and make juice without adding milk What is your opinion on this doctor ?
@@khrisziemke2386Try a different type of zinc. You may be surprised. Zinc picolinate is a little more expensive but is more easily absorbed in the body. Or try zinc l'carnosine for a powerful dual purpose action.
@@Drberg sir I am from BD. I am 32 and still suffering from adult acne and tremendous hair loss. although i take vit D3 but I want to know how much D3 with k2, znc, magnesium, copper and others are needed on a daily basis..I mean the quantity?

Until recently, Dr Lee Merritt had a useful link on her site called the 9 supplements you should take each day. Dr Berg, please consider creating something similar
@dillinger187 I would agree, but the food found in the USA, unless you grow and raise it yourself, is deficient in many minerals. Modern farming, really agribusiness, has destroyed soil, turning it to lifeless dirt and dust producing seeds, not food. Also, not giving the soil a rest every 7 years. Where that is practiced, people are healthy.
@@dillinger1312not all foods you can get enough vitamins through diet and if you are deficient in one, using supplements can help boost the system back to normal range without eating too much calories. Most people are low in Vitamin D and B vitamins especially in winter
As always very informative, and helpful, thank you Dr Eric. All your work helps in many different ways, but for me mostly in lifestyle and getting my degree in psychology. Keep on doing great work, and helping people.

We do this as a family. If it gets too high, then we do,
How do you monitor a fever?
@@LupeC100 It just means to keep an eye on the temperature and to recognize patterns. I don’t medicate my kids for a fever unless it gets too high. I rarely have to medicate. You can find tables online for the ages of your children to know when a fever gets too high. When it does, that’s when you medicate and call a doctor. My mom always gave us a bath when we had a fever, to help lower it naturally a little. Also, a fever tends to go up in the middle of the night, and this is a natural pattern. If you let it do its work, then generally the fever will break in the morning. Because we don’t tend to medicate, the illness that causes it is healed quicker than when someone keeps medicating. The fever is hindered, and it can’t do its job because the fever keeps being lowered to where it is ineffective.
@sarageorge6673 Oh, thank you so much for explaining. Have a great evening.
It's funny how UA-cam won't let me like this video😒😒. Thank you Dr. Berg. You are a Godsend
It's YOUR browser.
I have always taken zinc. I have suffered from hay fever as a child and adult. I cleaned up my diet, and I no longer have any allergy symptoms!!
How much zinc do you take? I have bad allergies.
I take 50 MG in the evening with copper. But I understand if you have a poor immune system, you can take 75 to 100 mgs. I also take Vit D3 daily, and I am in the sun a couple of hours a day.
@bonnieaanonsen7826 how much copper?
Dr. Berg says to take copper in a trace mineral complex. I take 2 mgs. You can also get get it from eating shellfish.
@@bonnieaanonsen7826what about diabetics? Do they need like 90-100 mg zinc daily? I look at my twinflame (im in separation with him) but he looks so pale and old Ive started fasting more and exercise even more. Have walked 20.000 steps today and been jogging 10 min too. Try to eat mostly low carb too. But I love sweets so I try to find sugar free things like sugar free ice cream, sugar free chocolate etc.. so I try to always have something in the house. Wondering if I should cut that out too, but I guess I have to try things to figure it out. Also stopped coffee with coffein for a while now to see if my sleep gets better, it has been really bad lately :/
Dr Berg is a great phenomenal and an embodiment of knowledge...many thanks 👍👍👍
Thanks for consistently delivering high-quality health content. You really help me stay on track!
Brilliant d-r Berg!
Thank you,that people like you exist ❤️
I love how sometimes you just randomly have humor in your videos
Me too 😂
I can't believe it I drink a tablet that has zinc and also b5. and my acne and pimple is fading away, thank you dr berg. I thank God for you dr berg.
Ream and sugar blonde isn't the answer. Try mushrooms 🍄.
No problem. Glad my tips helped you. Take care.
Dr.Berg is a legend!
As usual, Dr. Berg hit the nail on the head! Zinc plays a vital role in numerous bodily functions, from supporting our immune system to aiding in wound healing and even influencing our sense of taste and smell. What’s fascinating is that zinc is involved in over 200 enzymatic reactions, which means it’s essential for processes like protein synthesis and DNA synthesis. Make sure you get your zinc and copper in, folks!
Recently told I had low Vitamin D. I’m quite upset because over the years not one doctor or my nephrologist has tested my Vitamin D. I had a renal transplant in 2014 so have been having 0.025 calcitriol since then.
I have has severe head sweats for the past 5 years. I did try the Botox but ceased after the second treatment due to the pain. I did ask my previous Nephrologist if it could be caused by the prograf I was on. He said no but didn’t suggest Vitamin D test. A bone density scan has shown that my L3 & L4 have osteoporosis. Hips and Neck of femur are osteopenia. This is why my new nephrologist tested my Vit D.
I also have Bipolar Affective Disorder 1. I have had a lot of depression over the last 5 years whilst being on Sertraline and Lamictal. I spent 3 months in a private mental health clinic to change my antidepressant to Dothep. Now after learning about the low Vitamin D I wonder how long has it been low and how much of my depression, and all the other symptoms you list are from Vit D and not my Bipolar. I feel as though the last 5 years have been have lost. My Vit D =37. Healthy range is >50-125. I am on now on 0.050 micrograms.
you should take at least 7.000 - 8.000 iu of Vitamin D3 every day
but of course, check it with your doctor
I believe in taking in taking pumpkin seed oil for zinc. Saved my eyes.
Can you please explain how it saved your eyes?
I thought seed oils were bad!
It's bad if heated. It's fine if you don't cook it and just mix it to food.@@stephennelson1687
@@stephennelson1687There are two things to consider when talking about seed oils. First, whether the seeds are organic or GMO. Second, the process used to create the oils. A good seed oil should be processed with the least amount of heat and no harsh chemicals.
@@stephennelson1687 I use Avocafo oil because it is not a seed oil.
So interesting 🤔 I learn something new with each video. Thanks!😊
I did what Dr Berg said for Shingles in less than 10 days I was done with shingles , he helps a lot thank you.
What did you do? My wife just finished a rough bit of shingles?
@@darrendines4580L-lysine supposed to help by taking capsules
@@darrendines4580
Shingles:
Lysine first and foremost. Avoiding nuts and seeds. Avoiding processed sugar + alcohol. Homemade hydroxychloroquine + zinc. Copper revolution protocol with emphasis on B1 (Thiamine).
If you have it recurring you need to figure out what your triggers are and avoid them.
Thank you, dr. Berg, for everything you do for humanity!
Very interesting, I've never heard of the Thymus Gland before. Many thanks!
Me either. I thought he was saying Thalumus 🤦♀️😂
Thanks Dr Berg.
When I was a teenager, I drove a large spike into my shin area; led to gangrene. Many poultices.
For decades the area had scab over where the hole was. Thin skin there, easily reopened. About two decades ago I heard how much Zinc helped to knit skin and I started supplementing. For the first time the area healed over with a bit thicker skin. Still taking Zinc, still healed over, even though I have scraped, cut, the area, it heals over normally.
Thank you Dr. Berg👑🏆
You're most welcome!
I did a hair sample that said I was low in zinc, high in heavy mentals and low on some other minerals. Everything you said I have at a minimum of 4 of the 7. Thank you for sharing, till next time God Bless.
Love 💕 this channel

Doing nails for many years, the white horizontal spots on nails was also a sign of zinc deficiency; then my (young) child had a horrendous odor that even a bath would not eliminate- she had a zinc deficiency! I started giving her zinc tablets and that “stink like a skunk” 🦨 🫢 odor was eliminated. Her aunt from her paternal side also had this same problem, but unfortunately did nothing- and she “Stunk like a Skunk 🦨” her whole life. 🤦🏼♀️😓
Hello Zipperty, where does that odor emenate from?
I am a trained ophthalmologist. When I listened to this video I immediately went to PUB MED to restudy this subject. Everything he said about zinc and copper perhaps being important to help slow cataract formation is correct, although many of the studies were done in mice. Zinc and copper are important to decrease oxidative stress all over the body .
But, no matter what, everyone is developing cataracts as they age and taking zinc and copper will not stop that. Dr. Berg did not have that quite correct. Most cataracts are due to the fact that the lens is an epithelial tissue and thus keeps growing as you grow. By the time you’re 60, your lens is a lot thicker than it was when you were born. Other changes occur which is seen in actual yellowing of the lens which the doctor can see at the slit lamp. These change are there in all patients in their 40’s so technically that’s a cataract. But most of us don’t mention them to patients until they start affecting the vision and the age range in that is vast (40- 90) and depends on many factors. Over the years the lens will get yellower and denser. If you don’t get it removed, it may even progress to a brown color. Many, many factors affect this process. Some people develop cortical cataracts, which are the cataracts that actually are white swaths in the lens and some have a combination of these two changes.
These days in the hands of a skilled surgeon, cataract surgery is quick and very successful surgery. New lenses are inserted. You should not be afraid to have cataract surgery if you’re having trouble seeing and your ophthalmologist says the reason is cataracts. Barring a serious complication (.1% to 1% depending on the complication) you’ll see better immediately after the surgery. The surgery is done with topical anesthesia but most surgical centers use a little IV sedation to relax the patient along with that. I had one eye done with the sedation and the other without. I didn’t feel anything during either procedure but the sedation made some of the normal sensations easier to ignore. Just make sure your surgeon is experienced and uses the most modern techniques.
Thanks Dr. Berg I've learned so much from you in the short time since I found you're channel. They didn't teach this in college. Much Love and good health to you all💜😇
Excellent video!!!!! Lots of info and extremely valuable for so many conditions.
Wonderful message, very glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this, this is exciting! Thank you always!
T cells are my favorite cells. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Your editing is on point 🤌🤌🤌
Thank you, very good information 👍🏻
This just described every health problem both my grandfathers had including the ones that killed them
Thank you Dr Berg for sharing another amazing video. May God blessed you and your family!
Dr. Berg I literally love you. I know you are a Top Tier Doctor for certain. I've commented on a few of your videos and I've put a lot of information to use. Realistically I can't afford insurance so I stick to healing myself with proper nutrition, Lifestyle eating and supplementing my body when necessary. I lowered my A1C down last year and I'm no longer pre diabetic, thank you again and again. Now I have other things to work on. I love you 😭🩷
In the eighties, Hans Napier of Germany did many published studies on zinc. Specifically zinc chelate. Since then, i believe citrate is best form. And its relatively inexpensive. Zinc citrate and magnesium citrate are needed by the body and the Krebs cycle. They are two miraculous minerals. Even for the healthy function of the thyroid gland and uptake. Great stuff. 👍🌞
Oh flipping heck I can’t drive at night, I’m over menopause but all the things I had suffered through it, came back worse, I’m on the list for cataract on both eyes and I have to get this checked out. Thank you Doctor
Put castor oil on your eyelids every night. Check out Barbara O’Neil
I’m 65. Eye Dr has said cataract surgery….I’ve put it off until I retire.
In the meantime ; I’m additionally taking zinc and putting castor oil on my eyelids at night just before I put my glaucoma drops in.
I’ve been doing this for two months and hopefully when I go back to the eye doctor in January, maybe there will be an improvement
Sorry about high school brother. Hope you are doing better now.
You are the best Dr Berg!

I see a video to get multivitamins you can make a juice (seen in UA-cam video) with following ingredients
1) 4 soaked almonds
2) 6 soaked cashews
3) 2 table spoons soaked pumpkin seeds
4) 1 ripe banana
5) 2 seedless soaked Dates (we will use this water to make juice soak these in another container)
Take all these and make juice without adding milk
What is your opinion on this doctor ?
Thank you, doctor! 🙏
I recommend not taking on a empty stomach it could make you feel nauseous if not
Zinc picolinate rarely causes those problems.
@dalesmith @julieannmyers:
Good to know, thx
I have to take zinc with food. I took it in an empty stomach only once and it was horrible!
Agree@@khrisziemke2386
@@khrisziemke2386Try a different type of zinc. You may be surprised. Zinc picolinate is a little more expensive but is more easily absorbed in the body. Or try zinc l'carnosine for a powerful dual purpose action.

Until recently, Dr Lee Merritt had a useful link on her site called the 9 supplements you should take each day. Dr Berg, please consider creating something similar
Dont Take Supplements.. eat food..
@dillinger187 I would agree, but the food found in the USA, unless you grow and raise it yourself, is deficient in many minerals. Modern farming, really agribusiness, has destroyed soil, turning it to lifeless dirt and dust producing seeds, not food. Also, not giving the soil a rest every 7 years. Where that is practiced, people are healthy.
If he focuses on supplements, many followers will unsubscribe.
@@dillinger1312not all foods you can get enough vitamins through diet and if you are deficient in one, using supplements can help boost the system back to normal range without eating too much calories. Most people are low in Vitamin D and B vitamins especially in winter
@ChessIsJustAGame I agree; food from supermarkets leave our bodies void of nutrition; I can feel it; no energy.
I wanted to clarify that zinc is good for women who went through menopause
As always very informative, and helpful, thank you Dr Eric. All your work helps in many different ways, but for me mostly in lifestyle and getting my degree in psychology. Keep on doing great work, and helping people.
