Today I want to cover the warning signs of a vitamin D deficiency. However, it’s important to remember that a warning sign or symptom isn’t the real problem-it’s an indicator of the real problem.
Seven warning signs of a vitamin D deficiency:
1. High blood pressure
2. Low back pain
3. High blood sugar
4. High susceptibility to viruses
5. Autoimmune conditions
6. Daytime sleepiness
7. Depression
Let’s say you’re doing everything right, and you’re still deficient in vitamin D. There are a few reasons why this could happen.
Top causes of a vitamin D deficiency (when you’re already getting vitamin D):
• Polymorphism (a vitamin D receptor mutation)
• You’re still not getting enough vitamin D (you need at least 10,000 IU)
• You have a problem with absorption (due to low zinc, low magnesium, a liver problem, a kidney problem, darker skin, or being overweight)
When you take a vitamin D supplement, you also need to take vitamin K2. The correct ratio is 10,000 IU of D3 to 100 mcg of K2. Vitamin K2 can help drive calcium into the bones and help prevent it from depositing in the arteries, joints, and other tissues.

Thank you Dr Berg!! 🐱👍🏿
Should we take k2 daily also?
Awesome 👏
@@mianaliasjad take d3 with k2
@@mianaliasjad Yes
What's the recommended dosage for magnesium to take along with the vitamin k and d3?
To be honest, I have been following this doctor ever since 2014 and the word thank you doesn’t even explain how grateful and how amazing this doctor is
Dr. Berg, I’ve never met you but you have been much more helpful to me than my physician of decades. Thank you.
100%!
🎉💯💕
This man should win the Nobel prize for saving the lives of millions for free
I suffered from back pain, for more than 10 years. Tried everything including seeing Chiro & TCM until I started taking D3 & K2 supplements religiously for the past 1.5 years. Now, I'm perfectly fine. TQ for sharing Dr Berg.
How many mg you take of D?
@@foxxymoxxy2433 I take 60k dose and the frequency is every 6th day,so I guess 10000 IU per day!!
So you take 10, 000mg along with K2 100 mg daily and your pain is gone! Maybe it could work for sciatic nerve pain too!
ty
my doctor has prescribed me with 60k vit d3 once a week. then how to take k2 along with it. should I take all 6 capsules of 100mcg at once or 1caps of 100mcg daily?
Western medicine may be in the top of its game in some areas, but when it comes to returning to or maintaining actual homeostasis of the body, it fails, miserably.
That is their goal, so they are actually passing with flying colors
@@thegreatestmantoevrwlkthep9986 Indeed. They’ve certainly earned their cookie. I wanted to go into medicine 30 years ago, I’m thankful every day I didn’t. I’ve worked in the same chiropractors clinic on and off for the past 14 years. It pays to listen to your intuition and be your own advocate for your health. ❤️
Western medicine at the top of its game …? Hmmmm
@@Soapgirl64 “in some areas “… read much ? Hmmmm
A friend of mine had to spend a month in the hospital this year with Covid pneumonia and since they have you living off of carbs he lost 25 pounds mostly muscle 🤦♂️
I’m a sanitation worker & janitor at school in the evenings. I done some blood work because I was feeling fatigued. I have an enlarged prostate and changed my diet due to the risk of cancer. No caffeine, red meat, processed foods, & list goes on. I ended up losing 20lbs. 3 weeks ago I contract Covid-19 for the first time from my wife whom works at home but recently went out the country. No Covid-19 issues while being an essential worker. I went to the hospital 4 days ago and found out my vitamin d levels were 18. I do have a couple of lower disc damage in my back. Pain comes and goes. My rest is 6 hours of sleep and I’ve had years of depression. I was addicted to alcohol, now 13 years clean and have been seeing a therapist for 5 years for mental depression. Thank you so much for helping us all with your videos.
Prostate needs a lot of zinc, most of zinc sources are meat. Men generally crave meat and women crave sugar(fruit and it's antioxidants) Zinc also tells cells to die before they go cancerous. Think there has been a lot of targeted demonization of red meat because of the planet. Food science is mostly marketing. I will literally crave red meat. Prostate Cancer is happens to all men, but why? Zinc and folate are catch22, they help prevent it, but also feed cancer. Not enough iodine also to make hormones as hormones get out of wack. And you take chemical castration to not feed the cancer, which can affect muscle mass and die from heart problems.
Large doses will solve your root problem
I'm so grateful that as a society, we have you to speak your truth on all health related matters. Thank you. 🙏
My pleasure.
Dr Berg! Eventhough I am not able to see a pair of wings behind you, I'm sure you've got it there somewhere 😇
You're an angel! and a life saver for many many people , empowering many souls to think and take charge of their own health, being sovereign individuals, and not being a drugged slave to the system. Love you, love you, love you so much🙏💚🌎🍀♥️
I don't know if I'm allowed to mention another doctor here or if my comment will be taken down, but dr Campbell is also excellent - all medical stuff rather than nutrition. Very informative and stats based. Also empowering though, that's why I say it.
I can see dr Berg's wings now you say it!
Yep, I see these wings!
I’ve never had issues with blood pressure. Recently at a physical I found out that my numbers were higher than normal. I bought all sorts of stuff like Coq10, beet powder, magnesium glycenate, aged garlic supplements, etc. I never considered that it could just be a vit d deficiency.
I just started taking beet tabs...Great for blood circulation and varicose veins... circulates oxygenated blood.
Yes. It’s hugely helpful. He made other videos on absorption depending on one’s situation.
Me too just start having a slight rise in my blood pressure
@@kirstinalphabet796me too. Which brand did you get?
Hey John. What is the difference between aged garlic supplement and mincing up a clove everyday and swallowing it? Do you think raw garlic is as effective? I ask because I'm only 34 with a BP of 180 over 110. I cant get it down even with atenolol.
Thank you Doctor Berg for your life changing video's!
Since following your advice I have lost 30lbs since mid may following keto, I no longer suffer with anxiety and depression and I no longer have the need to take my prescribed methotrexate for arthritis and my symptoms have all but gone!
At 50 year's old I feel 21 again, thank you so much for helping me to change my life!❤️
That must be amazing 🤩 thank you for sharing!
I want this for myself too, blessings to you.
On Christmas day, 2019, I went to the nearby hospital's ER to check some uncommon itching on my head. It was diagnosed as herpes zoster ophtalmicus. Because of that, I took a blood test, which showed that my vitamin D level was way below normal. I started doing all that was required to replenish my body with vitamin D exercises, sun light, vitamin supplements), and it worked in a couple of months. On December 3rd, 2020 I was diagnosed with COVID, one day at the hospital and went back home, for mildly anguishing (couldn't eat properly), two-week recovery. I wonder what could have happened if I had caught the virus while my vitamin D levels were on the floor. Having herpes zoster ophtalmicus one year earlier was blessing in disguise.
Right! Below 39ng/ml is way easier to get virus very active.
Is that the same as shingles?
@@heddaszczepanski9210 yes on the face involving the eye
If you dont mind saying what are you before and after D levels and what did you use for supplements? I just tested D at 23 and yes likely have shingles around my right eye. Thanks and continued good luck with your health.
@@skeptick6513 thank you for your reply. I had that for a year and had no idea it was lack of vit.D. I will do what you did. Thank you
Dr.Berg ,i have all the 7 symptoms ,and my vitamin d test result is 15 that is too low my doctor ordered 50,000iu ,he mensioned only the back and muscle pains,you Are Magnificent !!!
I've been taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D daily for a couple of years now and my results came back at 63. Thanks Dr. Berg for all the informative videos.
Same here!!!
IBD and taking 40,000 IU’s of Dr. Berg’s Vitamin & K2 supplement plus an additional 50,000 IU of D3 DAILY (total of 90,000IU) and feel better than ever! Thank you Dr. Berg for setting the record straight with regard to property D3 dosages while dispelling all the incorrect information out there!!!
@@D52M5 Q
Wow that's a lot! I think the most I've taken is 25,000 iu's.
@@di4085 I know it seems that way but with my gut issues it’s well within guidelines per Dr. Berg’s analysis of proper dosages. Watch his video about how to convert IU’s to Mcg’s and you’ll see that those numbers aren’t high at all. They fool us into believing that those IU numbers are so much but in reality they aren’t. Check out this many vids on Vitamin D and you’ll see. Good luck!
How do you feel when you take high levels of D3/K2?
I took 1 5000 iu and could barely take it…I felt so wired and weird all day.
This channel literally my medical class for me 😁 love it!
You are literally describing indicators that most Black Americans have. It is said that we are highly deficient in Vitamin D but I rarely see doctors recommend it before meds. Thank you for this.
No problem. Glad to share this info. Stay safe!
Medical doctors do not study nutrition. They are too quick to write prescriptions. Prescription drugs are very toxic to your body. Always best to try to find a way to treat your problems with proper nutrition. Only take prescription drugs as an absolute last resort.
I just want to thank you for all your info shared and for being an excellent on line dr. I know you can't say you provide any health care, but you do and it's great.
Wow, my vitamin D was 19. I had all if these symptoms. The Depression and joint pains were out of this world. Been taking Dr. Berg’s supplement, its now up in the 40’s…. Feeling much better. Thank you Dr. Berg & team.
Wow. If you don’t mind sharing, how many of his D3&K2 do you take for your level to get to 40 now?
Mine is 11 and i feel depressed, pain in my knees , feeling very low even in morning, inflammation and burning in my stomach.
my doctor has prescribed me with 60k vit d3 once a week. then how to take k2 along with it. should I take all 6 capsules of 100mcg at once or 1caps of 100mcg daily?
@@experimenthealthyketo83 mine used to be very low (17ng/ml). Nowadays I have 67ng/ml. In order to reach those levels I started to increase my sun exposure. But, the most important steps are the following: take vitamin D3 supplements + magnessium+ FATS( coconut oil, liver, cheese, red meat, eggs). I, personally, used to take 30,000 IUs every day (for 2-3 months)
@@martinleinenweber80 Yes, me too, I saw better results with at least 20 000ius of d3&k2 plus magnesium, zinc, bile, ect as Dr Berg explains.
Hello Dr, you are making videos with more information which we normally don’t get from any Dr we consult. Your videos are also very interesting like any entertainment videos. Thanks for your service.
Hey Dr B! I just went to my doc yesterday, after having my blood levels checked & she said I was her ONLY PATIENT w a perfect vid D #, and added "infact, your my only patient, EVER with ZERO Vit/min deficiencies, every # is perfectly in range!! Thanks to you!
That's fantastic! Happy to help!
Wow for how long we should take vitamin D .
I swear I got my LabCorp results today and my Vitamin D was low (27). I had chest pain for the past two weeks. This video was perfect timing for me
What’s it supposed to be?
My LabCorp results showed my Vitamin D as 24. My endocrinologist started me on Vitamin D2 1.25mg (50,000 Unit). I take it once a week for 3 months to get my levels up.
@@beago0810 mine was also 24 and I take 50,000 IUs daily.
Vitamin D3 at 50,000 IUs daily. In addition to 500 mcg of M7-K2.
@@Leah_Tewari so what is normal range?
It takes a real skill to explain these topics in a simple easy to understand way. Good on you Dr Berg. You are helping many people!
Oh man! I reeeeeally needed to see this video! Thank you, Dr. Berg, you’ve opened my eyes! Wow!
I KNOW I’m deficient, what I did not know was why I had SEVERAL of these symptoms!
Spot on Dr. Berg with high blood pressure on the lack of vitamin D! I have high blood pressure and recently lab work showed a difficiency in vitamin D. Dr recommended 2,000 IU daily. Also, the Dr suggested possible autoimmune causing scarring of the kidney. Your videos are greatly appreciated as an alternative to traditional medicine and taking a more natural approach. Thank you so much
What have you learned about kidney scarring?.. I have it too, as well as hypertensive…also am only a 3 on Vit D, so on the edge of deficit)
I had extreme low back pain . If i was walking around it wouldn’t hurt, but standing in one spit hurt alot. My hair was falling out, couldn’t sleep well, my blood pressure was high, extremely tired all the time. I finally told my doctor, when the blood work came back i was 11 nanos. When i began treatment it was like night & day. Now i take about 5000 iu’s a day everyday.
Wow.. And how has these 5000ius been helping you?
I know my bare minimum is 10000ius (with required k2, zinc, magnesium, ect). But better with 20000ius in summer and 40000ius in winter.
@@experimenthealthyketo83 It depends on the season & my sun exposure. I take vitamn k2 as mk7. I take 100mcg for every 10’000 iu of vitamin d3. My doctor gave me 50’000 mega dose a week for 2 months, i just continued to take at least 5000 iu to get it up there. I often take daily doses of 20& 30 k a day as well .It has taken me 3 yrs to get it up to 50 nano’s. The veterans hospital is recommends to get it up to 75 . Being deficient in d is a miserable experience ! I also take zinc, magnesium &dr berg’s electolytes which has 1000 mg of potassium as well as a multi. I follow a ketogenic diet, strength train & walk as well as cardio.
@@experimenthealthyketo83 as far as helping me?…… huge huge difference. Main difference is i don’t have back pain & muscle pain anymore.the difference in energy is amazing !
Nice nice

I agree 100% I couldn't have said it better myself
Didn’t know a Mrs. Berg exist 👀 lol. Never seen her around but I’ve just been on this channel like a year or so.
I want to say thank you Dr. Berg... for the last 4 years I was struggling with horrible eczemas. I was taking a small dosage of vit d from time to time.. but was not aware of how it could actually help me. I watched one of your video on autoimmune disorders.. and began to take vit d regularly... still in small dosage though.. then my sister told me that I should rapidly increase it and I indeed checked the dosage I should take and yes.. 3 weeks after I was completely free of eczema and itching.. and it never reappeared again. So want to say thank you for your videos. They are extremely helpful :))))
Wow 🤩 thank you so much for sharing.
I also have eczema around my nose but when it flares up it's so itchy. Can you tell me how much vit d u take a day? And other supplement u take ? Tried a lot but they just dont go away
I have also severe itching problem due to which my arms have big black spots ,I got my vitamin d level check and it was low
Can you please share how much IU you were taking on daily basis and were you taking K2 along with that???
It worked for my eczema too. I took 5000IU a day with K2.
@@hfuziah hi can you please tell upto how many weeks or months it should be taken
And does any other supplements should be taken along with it like zinc,magnesium or calcium tablets ( I read somewhere when you are taking vitamin d3 with K2 ,calcium should not be taken it can be risky)
I gone through this symptoms because of vitamin D,really important content for everyone
Your videos are so so helpful! I have asthma, some autoimmune issues, and chronic bronchitis. Going to try this!
Opposite I’m so thankful I started writing a novel. I will go to your website. I am truly grateful for you. You are an angel after all the years that you went through in school to become a doctor and to go on UA-cam and tell us all the correct way to fix ourselves is truly a blessing. I truly believe in you and everything that you say and I have told numerous people and sent your videos to get people started on watching you on UA-cam. The next thing I will do is post it to all my social media accounts, everyone should know who you are, you should win some kind of award for truly helping people out. Thank you for your kindness.
Great information. Thank you Dr Berg. I find solace on the terrace. A terrace symbolizes open mind, clear thoughts, relaxation and probably many more positive attributes. It's a place to get huge amount of sunlight and spend sometime gardening.
Gardening is the best hobby that relieves us from stress, it also gives good body exercise.
Everything you say, just makes sense to me and you do such a good job of explaining things. Thank you Doc Berg :)
Glad to hear that! Most welcome!
Doc, I took up keto, with heaps of fresh vegetables, due to a sudden onset of bizarre autoimmune symptoms and allergies, including anaphylactic reactions. Never had one in my life. If I'd never watched your channel, I'd never have been able to slowly ease into keto. My energy levels are stable all day, and the extra fat I had, not much, is just melting off.
Thank you so much for making this invaluable information freely available and easily accessible. I recommend your channel to others, for their own health. 😃

I am started to take your advice now after watching your video on Vertigo. I am going through it past few days. Thank you Dr. Berg.
My signs:
Severe psychosis attacks
Reality loss
Reality crash
Anxieties
Depression
Sleepiness
Started to take vitamin d3 and K2 and it fixed most of it.
Glad that I started taking vitamin d instead of SSRI'S, which would have probably fried my brain in the long term
I hope i not being obtrusive.... may i ask the topic of the psychosis?

@@spacemeter3001 thanks space meter, yeah i was wondering what the psychosis was you experienced? Thanks...
@@testimusicali6445 It is kinda hard to describe but I'll try my best.
It is basically that I stop caring about myself and my body. Don't shower, don't to anything. I'd basically just lay down in my bed and have no intention in doing anything.
Also there is the thing I call "reality crash", basically when my entire world view switches. World view in how I see and interpret the world. All of a sudden people are not people anymore but just a bunch of chemical soup and it would not matter if I or someone else killed them etc.
@@spacemeter3001 Fill like a urge to fainting with strange body sensations ?

Thanks for your support!
How many anti depressants are prescribed to millions of people here in America?
It may be as simple as Vit D.
Thanks Doc.
So true!
I was on AD for 20 years. It was vitamin D. 10.000 iu a day and havent been depressed since.
Also, SSRIs, antidepressants, can be dangerous, especially with teen boys

Love Dr. Berg me and my family rely on Dr. Berg for knowledge . Knlowledge is power. 😊
you are absolutely right Dr Berg medical professionals treat the indicators
Say it a little louder for the people in the back! I have watched a number of your vitamin D videos and I cannot agree more. I tell you I was deficient and I felt like a ZOMBIE. I could sleep three hours mid day then still hit the sack at 9pm and sleep through the night. I would just close my eyes in the middle of doing the dishes just for a moment of relief. I also had Bell's Palsy around this time, and turns out a deficiency can cause neurological symptoms as well, so Just wonder! But the weirdest symptom I had was a weird feeling in my thumbs. It felt like my thumbs were "sleepy" if that makes sense. Thanks for another great round of info! This is a huge service to us all.
I can’t thank you you enough Dr.Berg for all the great information and explaining it in terms that I can understand!
I am forever grateful to you!!!
Sir,...... How do u read our thoughts. Perfect timing. I was exactly thinking about it. Love from India.
It’s funny how many videos it takes for me to understand something and want to try your data & tips… My sleep is so mmuch better now as well as the rest of my health because of watching your many videos many times…The stuck ideas I had on so many things somehow disappeared…
Thank you for always teaching us that it's better to get back to the basics. The westernized medicine is totally into just writing a new script for every ailment. It's not so bad to try a few of these natural remedies and see if we can all gain a better understanding of our body. Thank you so much love your content
Incredible, health promoting information always - thank you Dr Berg
Thank *God* for you, Dr. Berg! Ive never been so healthy!
I've been taking my vitamin D at night before bed & recently maybe it's a placebo but I've been sleeping better, more refreshed in morning and then go for walk. Feeling much better from what I was.
My question is how much we can trust the vitamin supplements?
Whitch brand can u trust 100%???
amen, Amen, AMEN !!!!!
@ Beautiful Mind you really can't trust alot of the supplements out there... ingredients from China and no testing you never know what you really may be taking and can do more harm than good. I only use high quality therapeutic supplements that the professional Drs. like Chiropractors, Functional medicine Drs. Nutrionists use and they work excellent for me. Expensive yes, but worth every dime in my opinion!

Excellent video! Sharing with mom and dad.
My doctor said I have enough vitamin D.
So I got happy and went to Chick-fil-A and had the breakfast meal.
I was also Vitamin D deficient. Then took Vitamin D3 + sunbathing
Dr Berg you have saved my life many times, God bless you.
Concise as ALWAYS!!!
✨️ Vitamin D helps your body make antimicrobial peptides*, so vitamin D is really helpful when you have an overgrowth of bad bacteria, yeast, or viruses (ex. gut dysbiosis, SIBO, candida, sinusitis, bacterial vaginosis).
*Antimicrobial peptides: they're basically natural, safe, homemade antibiotics that help you manage your critters!
I have been taking Berg’s Vit. D3 plus K2 for a couple of years and STILL have terrible gut issues for almost 2 years. Plus, overgrowth of stuff in my mouth. To add TO this, a couple of weeks ago I developed an Age Related food allergy that showed up with myriads of foods, when I have never ever been allergic to a food my entire life. So, vitamin D3 and K2 ( Berg’s brand ) has not done a lick of good in that regard. 😵💫
@@carolcole570 how is your fasting going?
@@TexasMom68 . Fantastic, Aracelilcalles ! It is close to a year, now. My A1C is down nicely, and on the fibroscan of my liver, “ the fatty part has disappeared and the scarring of the cirrhosis is going away “. I am thrilled beyond belief !
Bummer@@carolcole570 ! To clarify, it's not to say that Vitamin D alone will be enough to cure dysbiosis and/or overgrowths. Rather, it will be much, much harder to clear them if you are deficient. You'll still want to treat the microbiome itself and any contributing factors (root causes) that led you down that path.
@@gutmicrobiomequeen . One of my doctor’s does naet, so he is currently working with me. No vitamin deficiencies. Have been diagnosed with H. Pylori and will get treated tomorrow for that. But, this sudden Age Related food allergy has thrown me.
I take VD3 + K2 - 4,000IU ~ 250mcg daily in capsule form. Is this a good amount?
Take with fatty foods too
@@presouz5 fatty foods like what ??
Since Dr. Eric says 10,000 IU’s plus K2, my thought is that you at LEAST need to take that dosage.
You may want to test before any changes. And check his videos on absorption of vitamin D.

Hello Dr Berg, you are amazing & I am not a doctor but I learnt this stuff as my wife suffered MS and had over 20 active lesions on her brain at one point. I got fed up of the doctors treating symptoms and not underlying causes. Could you do a video on heavy metal detoxes ? Parsley is great for it silicon dioxide, for aluminium and coconut for the brain as I seen your video about glyphosate & I understand were all loaded with both this and aluminium which helps glyphosate cross the brain and blood barrier. Fun fact Autoimmune disorders don't exist in the equator & they are a western illness for the majority. I was able to stop my wifes illness progression using Chinese treatment to fight against Lyme borreliosis infestation. I rebuilt her myelin sheath using the building blocks of CBD, Melatonin, Nigella sativa, loinsmain & Reshi mushrooms taurine & adrenaline. She's regained all of her physical and mental cognitive function.. I truly love how you break things down with using the building blocks as that's the same way I do things. Thank you for your amazing work you are a gentleman.
Your wife is lucky to have you. I am glad she is better. I did all kinds of alternative treatments to get rid of my Lyme infection. It was an excellent education for me. Most of it was not covered by insurance.
@@bluewaters3100 thank you very much, yes only the western medicine part was covered but all that was is treatment to nuke the immune system and MRIs none of it stopped the progression of the illness. I am lucky too I'd be lost without her. Thanks for the kind response.
Does she have ANY amalgam dental fillings? If so get them OUT. There is a different filling they can do with no metal or mercury. Bless you!
Wow, that makes cry…Such a well done. And cool to know that there’s little autoimmune situations in in the équatorien regions!
I have had 17 teeth worked on with mercury. I studied very much on the subject, before getting the mercury removed. I had cleaned my digestive system very well before removal. But after removal, I ended up with loads of mercury on my skin… I think the most efficient was (beside nutrients rich diet. Especially in omega 3), it was sweating in sauna. I became ashame of letting all this poison go in the ground…so now I’m working on re-nourishing the ground…
5 stars. Since I have started taking dr berg vitamin D and retiring from my office state job, and working outside in the sun on our family farm 99% of my issues have gone completely. No aches pains, high blood pressure etc etc. Take it. It works
Wow, that’s absolutely awesome 👏
Thanks so much Doctor Berg for everything! Have a wonderful day! :)))
Hi sir thank you so much for sharing Stay blessed always 💞
You literally save us from our own stupidity and the information of the food industry! I don't want to think of where we would be without you!
I know people criticize you and say all sorts of nasty things, but I say; You a literally answers to my prayers! Thank you for giving of yourself to help the rest of us!! 🤗
Started taking vitamin D more than 5 years ago after one of your early videos. Glad I did as I caught the original strain of Covid at the start of the pandemic. (Had this confirmed by IgG antibody test). It was very mild, no worse than a cold, and all over in 7 days. Think taking D3 and K2 helped with this.
@@bridgetbold6867 I take a mixed tablet that contains 5000 IU of D3 and 100 mcg of K2. Have not worn a mask and have mixed with many people since original case of the bug. Recently was on an aircraft sitting close to someone who was coughing for 2 hours - still OK.
I noticed K helped with cov1d greatly.
Thank you Thank you Thank you
Dr Berg for ALL your informative videos😍💕🤗🙏
I love watching your videos its so informative and interesting i love the knowledge you share with us obsessed with you
I've recently been hit by Covid , and I feel some (not all the symptoms) in the video, like: tiredness and day time sleepiness, I don't know if the virus has depleted me of vitamin D. Thanks for the info Dr Berg 🌸
viruses and germs don't cause disease, this has been known since late 1800s, your body was just detoxifying, the medical industry uses germs and viruses to milk cash from you by selling antibiotics and antiviral drugs and quackzines
It's very, very helpful to receive validation for what I have been describing as "painting over rust" with respect to the institutionalized treatment of signs and/or symptoms vs. root causes.
The surface may look just fine for awhile but eventually the ongoing rust will prevail and it's off to the junkyard it goes. Thanks, doc!
Exactly!
Yes, it's the same where I live, I'm from Sweden. Doctors here are no longer allowed to give advice on diet and what to eat etc. They only prescribe meds to treat the symptoms, they never touch the subject of your diet or underlying causes. They are allowed to encourage exercise in all fairness. I remember when I was young, the doctors treated my parents high blood pressure with weight loss and recommended a certain diet. This has nothing to do with doctors tho, they only do what they are told by the establishment. Things have radically changed to the worse here. Luckily, the information and solutions are available for free on the internet, thanks to heroes like Dr. Berg.
I have see many neurologist they told me there's nothing they can for vertigo, but I just came across your video, and you're making so much sense, I suffer so much, I am going to try your method. Thankyou❤
Thanku very much Dr berg you are giving good health education for us
There are no extraneous organs in the body! For those of us who got their tonsils and adenoids removed, can you tell us what important functions we’re missing without these organs and what we can do to help out our body
Good idea. Had my adenoids removed in 97 when I had sinusitis surgery
Yes! He made a few videos on how to live without a gallbladder, thyroid, ect. And if you read the comments, you will see complaints from people having had the surgeries…very sad. But his videos will help.
@@experimenthealthyketo83 :( Yes, indeed. I feel REALLY bad for those who were fooled into getting their gallbladder removed! Since it helps with digestion and nutrient absorption! So vital. Thank you 😀
@@michaeldouglas1243 I was a kid too. I wish I would have said no. I remember thinking what a stupid organ. It keeps getting swollen! I was on the doctor’s side then. I thought it was a slick way to get to eat ice cream all the time too. They had brain washed me as a child. But later when I got older I thought about it and became upset. It’s probably all the crap they put in the food that made our adenoids and tonsils react.
I would love love to learn about this topic as well. My tonsils and adenoids were removed when I was in 2nd grade. @Dr.Berg, requesting you to please make a video on how to deal with this situation 🙏🏻
My personal symptoms of vitamin d deficiency were, extreme fatigue, I couldn't do any physical exercise for long at all, even small movements were exhausting. I had pain shooting down my arms from my arm pits.
I had trouble sleeping. I had vit D deficiency because I worked outside all day buy was covered head to toe in protective clothing, ironically.
Interesting,very interesting. I live in the Pacific NW so along with that & these symptoms I should probably get it checked.☔️
You are truly God sent. Thank you for all your advice.❤
That Man is on a mission
Sir can u make a video on all skin allergies related to sugar and refined carbs?
He did a few. If you have checked them all out, what specific question do you have that were not answered yet?
Dr Berg! I want you yo know that l had multiple serious health issues. God lead me straight to you and l am 85% better. I still have a few issues but you have been a true blessing for me
Dr you,re The best God will always shower his blessings on her on you
My significant other convinced me not to go into the sun too much because he got skin cancer. I stopped and my Vit D level got really low. Tired all the time, etc. I think the sun does really help you get Vit D. If I spend a day at the beach I sleep really good at night.
Yeah maybe why there is an autoimmune disease problem. It's shouldn't be not to get sun, but not to get burned. Mineral sunblocks help enough to not be burnt, I'll put it on once if I know I'm going to be out a lot. And the sleep is the melatonin from sun infrared. Which Dr berg also has a vid on that is more than just sleepy thing.
Doc, for a few years I've had what seems to be a slight butterfly rash on my face indicative of Lupus but with no other symptoms. It tends to come and go sometimes more prominent than others. I occasionally take anywhere from 5k - 10k IUs of Vit D and I run 3 x a week in the California Sun without a shirt on. Because of this video I upped my Vit D to 30,000 IUs and within 40 minutes the rash completely disappeared. Unreal!!!! Thank You, Thank You! I watch you everyday. Cheers, Nick
I love you Dr Berg. You are the best doctor ever! ❤️
Dr Berg-- I LOVE YOU!
Long story short-- hx HTN- went off meds- thinking it was 'OK'.
Thanksgiving this year, I was having chest pain-- pressure down my arm and up my neck-- Checked BP 190/100. Went to Dr that week and it was over 200/120.
Started on BP meds again. Decided I need to chose l I f e and make some changes with diet, lifestyle, exercise.
Came across your videos and Dr Pradip Jamnadas- Started taking some of the supplements you recommended-- including Vitamin D 5000 IU.
I kept listening to your video about how 10,000 IU was better and decided to up the Vitamin D and would have it checked it at next Dr appointment [thinking it would be fine] .
Well the results came back in today-- and it was 18 [reference 30-100]!!!! YIKES!!!! Thank you! Thank you THANK YOU!
May Yah the Creator of this world and all men bless you abundantly by teaching us how to care for these precious temples we have been given-- our bodies!
