Sleep is so important, and I believe this remedy will help you get the sleep you need. The best natural remedy for sleep is kefir. Consume 1/2 cup of kefir before bed for better sleep.
Kefir is similar to yogurt, but it’s better. It has more healthy, diverse microbes than yogurt. Many of these friendly microbes also survive your stomach acids, whereas the microbes in yogurt don’t.
Kefir not only has friendly bacteria but friendly yeast, too. This combination is essential. People with lactose intolerance also have an easier time digesting kefir than yogurt.
Health benefits of kefir:
• Decreased liver fat
• Fewer allergy symptoms
• Improved immune system
• Decreased inflammation
• Less constipation
• Better blood sugar
• Better blood pressure
• Decreased pathogens
Certain microbes make serotonin. The more of the right microbes you have, the more serotonin you’ll have. Serotonin is a hormone that can positively affect your mood and reduce stress.
Kefir provides microbes that make melatonin, which is a sleep hormone. Not only that, but kefir contains microbes that make the amino acid tryptophan. Tryptophan turns into serotonin and then melatonin.
Kefir is a good source of bioavailable calcium, which can help you get to sleep and stay asleep. The microbes in kefir also make certain B vitamins, which can greatly help with stress and calm a busy mind. The lactobacillus in kefir helps reduce cortisol, which will also help you sleep better.
I highly recommend making your own kefir. You need something called kefir live grains (there is no grain in it) to get started.
I like using goat milk, but you can use cow milk. The website I use to buy my kefir grains (happyherbalist.com) explains exactly how to make kefir.
Basically, you add 1 Tbsp of the kefir grains to 1 to 2 cups of milk. Then, you set it on the counter and cover it using a cloth or paper towel and a rubber band. After 24 hours, you’ll have kefir.

The fact that we get free videos on UA-cam by Doctor Berg is truly a gift. 👍👍👍
Happy to know that you found the information useful. Thanks for watching!
@@Drberg 🙂very useful, thanks! 💜🌻
Not actually a Dr...of medicine or much else, but there you go..glad he helps.
Thank you, dr. Berg💥😁
Yes!!! SO TRUE!
I've been drinking kefir just before bed for the last 2 weeks. I used to wake up once a night. Now I sleep straight through. Thank you Doctor
I am drinking kefir since I was a child in Europe. I was surprised that some people never heard of it in the USA. So glad that Dr. Berg educating general public. Love it! God bless dr.Breg!
So is it best to drink it after a meal or with the meal at the same time?
@@inquisitvem6723 Did you ever get an answer for this? I have the same question..
@@inquisitvem6723 if you have issues with iron malabsorbtion i'd drink it away from meals containign iron, since calcium binds to iron in the gut. IF you have an issue with too much iron like hemochromatosis, lowing iron as much as possible is needed, and kefir after a meal with iron will help that.
@@RaviShankar-it4dk @inquisitvem6723 Its better to drink it without meal before sleep
What about- does it break your fast??
This dude knows what he is talking about. I tested the Kefir before bed thing and first off, yes I am sleeping much better. Second my diarrhea went away. Lastly, my morning pain in hips and back is gone by about 95%. I never would have thought that.
Hi, did you buy it or make it?
Bought it@@lilneets5141
ONE POINT I failed to emphasize. Fasting! This video addresses those who having a problem sleeping, so kefir is a great remedy to take before bed. However, depending on your pattern of fasting, this kefir can knock you out of ketosis for a bit of time so shift the time you consume kefir to right after your last meal instead of before bed. Also - if you do plain whole milk kefir and only half a cup - sugars will be pretty small. But if you make it yourself, you can ferment it longer and reduce the sugars - but it will be sour.
Was about to say, as I'm doing omad
Straight after my last meal. Perfect, thanks doc! 😉🤙
For those who are on a dairy free diet, what kind will you recommend? And is the benefit the same as in goat or cow Kefir? Is cocunut kefir okay? And how about the casein in kefir? Thank you
👍
Well glad I break my fast before sleep , so I eat 2 hours before sleep and has time to consume kefir. The problem is in my country it's difficult to get kefir 😂
This is 100% true. I’ve had severe insomnia for a while now and this has allowed me to sleep again.
Do you take it right before bed? Because some people are saying it keeps them from falling asleep if eaten late.
@@jf8461 I take it about 30 minutes before bed. Because I need 30 minutes to get ready to sleep, brush teeth, take shower...
Wow this gives me hope!!!
@@yuyangfree can you explain how to make this?
I am definitely going try this !
Before watching this video I tried modifying my diet to have less sugar. I also started taking Kefir. I started to sleep a lot better not knowing this was one of the benefits of Kefir. I thought it must have been from reduced sugar in my diet. It works !
Drink 1/2 cup after consuming spicy foods! Works like a charm. I used to eat spicy foods. For me it was the spicier the better, but as I've gotten older my system has truly changed. I've found now I can revisit those spicy foods I had given up by drinking Kefir. It really does neutralize the spice.
Dr Berg. Following your advice I’ve lost 60 lbs and improved my health and mind immensely. It’s been over a year now. Thank you so much for all you do. I am very grateful to you.
Greg Gonzalez: What did you do?
This is a real feel good comment for Dr. Berg, congratulations to you and keep up the good work.

He put this video out four days ago??? The person who made the comment is a troll.
@@judithumuhoza2283 @Estrellita Carpio Doctor Berg recommends a healthy version of the Keto diet.
I have a 30 minute pre-sleep routine which has enabled me to get a great nights sleep every night for years.
15 minutes of meditation, 8 minutes of Tai Chi or QiGong then the last 7 minutes stretching muscles.
By the time I’ve done this my body and mind are so relaxed I sleep peacefully.

I started drinking kefir with your amazing Friendly bacteria probiotic liquid right before bed and I've been sleeping soundly ever since. Thank you Dr. Berg!
Do you drink 2 hours before bedtime?
How much time before sleep you took kefir
The advice in this video worked for me! I had been waking up with a stuffed nose, breathing through my mouth. I am asthmatic to begin with but even with medication (steroid), I was still waking up. So now with kefir, I am staying asleep.
Don't know what I'd do without you Dr. Berg. My anxiety is practically non existent thanks to you.

In the former USSR countries KEFIR is also suggested for centuries as a medicine for lung diseases. Greetings from Greece.
thats odd since dairy causes phlegm and snot and throat inflammation for many people the world over
Correct! Because many former USSR countries are Turkic. Turkish, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Tuva, Kyrgyzstan, Ozbekistan, Altai - Siberia and many others are all Turk. The names of the countries are different. And they all speak the same language Turkic.
Nope. Nothing to do with lungs. They suggest it for digestive systemhere
@@carlsconsthemoon6266 kefir has nothing to do with the countries you named
@@carlsconsthemoon6266 it actually comes from indigenous people of the Caucasus that have nothing to do with the Turkic people of the region, just because something is popular in your country doesn't mean it was invented there.
All my first 20 years in the USSR we have been given a glass of kefIr (stress on the second syllable) to drink before bed in holiday homes, sanatoriums,, summer camps, hospitals, etc. We only heard of yogurts in Russia in the 1990s... I am still astonished that none of my friends from the West ever heard of kefeer benefits. In the Soviet Union we even had children's stories pubkished about a good kefeer-making microb family abd their adventures among other microbs!
I like how he just went straight in to without wasting lots of time. Thanks dr berg, I’ve learnt so much from you.
From what I've seen, he usually takes all day to get to a point
I had a cup of kefir before bed the other day and I slept like the dead! Now this video comes out to verify, awesome work Berg!

I use to buy Kefir alot and was wondering why? I literally felt like, I took a sedative. Dr. Berg Thank you! Now, I know why. I will incorporate it back into my food regimen.
😊👍
Did you have kefir from Lifeway brand? But there’s lots of sugar & calories like 190
My favorite Kefir brand is Maple Hill Organic, grass fed, plain and unsweetened from Wholefoods
@@lydesis
Does it work for you? I live near Whole Foods. Thanks.
THANK YOU once again Dr Berg, i’ve been struggling with insomnia for a couple of years now and this actually works! I can’t believe it! I slept like a baby last night from 10 PM until 7:30 AM and that hasn’t happened in years!
Fantastic! Most welcome!
Sorry to bother you,how long before you go to bed do you take it?
And what amount?
Thank you
@@lenmessi27 I take half a cup about 30 minutes after dinner, or 2 hours before bed if I’m staying up late….
@@billjohnsonseattle Dear Blogger ,thank you for your valuable information, it works really well ,I got Lifeway Kefir,it's the only one you can find around here and had a small cup 1 hour before bed and it works ,slept better.
My mattress is sinking,(it's cheap )and that complicates my sleep,but the kefir was helpful . Chamomille with honey is great too,also Chamomile tea with half a teaspoon of collagen works really well too. Hope you are well.Thanks Jose
@@lenmessi27 Great…. If you also try Magnesium Glycinate, it will also really help with your sleep too. It’s amazing

Nice to know Dr Berg.
Broths have improved the quality of my sleep over the past month. I have a really hard time staying awake 3 hours or so after taking a broth. Maybe I make it worse for myself since I take a mixture of all broths now: chicken, vegetable, fish and bone. They make me very relaxed.
I really can't thank you enough, Doc. Eric! What precious information and power you have just given ti your devotees. You may just have changed my life, with this one tip. I find all of your videos interesting, but some of them stand out from the rest as being pure gold!
Good to know! Going to add this to my nightly regiment.

Thank God for you doctor Berg. 6 months ago I found you on UA-cam and I took your advice and started healthy keto and followed it through. And my health improved so much I can't believe it .I was pre-diabetic and had joint pain and felt tired and was not sleeping well .But now all that went away I feel better then when I was in my 20s .I have more energy no joint pain I sleep so good I don't wake through the night .My health improved in every aspect. Thank you for doing this you are a Saint .

Thank you so much Dr. Berg. Since watching your videos 3 years ago, my mental and physical health have been magnificently thriving. I overcame my depression and overweight due to the change in diet and nutrition and now possess the most confident and beautiful physique I could have ever imagined.

Dr Berg, I cannot thank you enough for your videos!
Kefir is such a great discovery for me!
I have been a yogurt lover since the 70’s and especially love Greek yogurt, and discovered feta cheese in Greece, also.
Am working on lamb, lol!
Not mutton ! 😝
And the keto diet and your tips based on research are just phenomenal, as I love to eat, and love to stay slim and active.
At 71, all mental and physical activity, are both challenging, and life enhancing.
You give me hope, and a renewed sense of the ability to make changes, for life! 😊
Thank you! Dr. Berg. I just love your videos. I will most definitely try it.

Wow. It’s amazing to learn more things about our gut. Our gut health is so important. I’ve cut out sugar and do intermittent fasting and that has helped my sleep immensely. I can’t go full Keto because my cholesterol goes up so I have one serving of grains (usually oats or flax seed) in the morning. I’m hoping Kefir will help me improve it even more. Thanks Dr. Berg!!!
Thank you Dr Berg....grateful for all your valuable information!

I can’t tell you how glad I am to hear you reference kefir in now two different videos I’ve seen.
My wife was diagnosed with RA nearly six years ago. In my researching this I found kefir. I’ve been making it and drinking it daily ever since. The benefits for myself are invaluable. Sadly, I have to practically beg her to drink hers despite all the evidence I’ve shown her as to how it can help condition. I will show her this video. Coming from you it’ll mean ten times more!
Thank you for all you do for us.
Dear Dr. Berg,
I would like to thank you for sharing useful information. After starting keto I lost about 5% of my weight in 40 days. But the most surprising success was increasing my sleep quality. Average night wake-ups decreased from 4 to 1. I even had a 0, which I never observed in last 2.5 years, which is also surprising during hot summer nights. I tried different diets and activities before, but none affected my sleep in a such effective way.
Thank you and wish you the best!
Regards

Inside my body. A lot going on I can't see. But, all of this makes sense. I can only get better day by day. I just take one day at a time. Record in my diary how I am feeling etc ... If I loose weight. I don't care so much about that. It was how I was feeling inside. Take care he is good. He contacted me. True.
Thanks for this tip because I have been having major issues sleeping

This is incredible Dr. Berg, I only get about an 2 hours of sleep before I need to wake up in the morning. By drinking about 1/3 cup of Kefir, before sleeping, I wake up alert. I do get in another nap after my moring routine, but boy does this help!

I don't fall asleep or stay asleep well...Thanks!👍
As I am on a modified keto diet, I replace kefir by sauerkraut (2 tablespoons with my diner + raw tartare seaweeds for iodine). I managed to cure months of bad sleep in just one night. It's been now 1 week that I sleep like a baby in one go from 10PM until 6AM. Sometimes during night waking up I then fall asleep immediately easily. but most importantly, I wake up refreshed, which really helps to have a good day.
Sleep really is the key to optimal health. Excellent video, lots and lots of useful info in it. Thank you so much Dr Berg.
Doogh is also something like Kefir it’s an Iranian traditional drink in summer! adding smashed cucumber and mint is also a recipe!

Thank you Dr Berg! You sharing all this knowledge very accessible means so much! We can't afford quality doctors or healthcare as a whole but these simple tips and explanation on how great our body works is so helpful!
I can appreciate that good doctors cost in the U.S.A. In Canada we have the opposite starting point but similar final problem. Not enough doctors so even though our government pays for them you wonder what is the point. Even the lousy ones are fully booked - impossible to get accepted as a new patient with a good one here (which is rare !). I'm not a fan of self diagnosis or self medication but what I've heard in this video rings true. Also so many glowing and credible articulate comments that I am very trusting of this video and wanting to make my own kefir ASAP as well as try many of the "supplementary" suggestions made by other viewers. God bless Dr. Berg, you and all the other viewers who have made comments.
Thank you Dr Berg for your wonderful video. I have really personally benefited from your videos. My thyroid function is getting better and better.
My body composition is very good too, with a metabolism of a 35 tears, I am 45.
I had been making yogurt in my Instant Pot but switched to kefir last year. I buy organic kefir, pour into ice cube trays to save it, then use some at a time every 3 batches or so. Let it go room temp before adding to your cooled, scalded milk. Never thought of using it at night, will do it! Thanks - again - so much!
I love he explains everything and goes straight to the point. Thank you so much! You truly are a blessing.
Very glad to be of help.
Kefir completely changed my life. I had bloating and digestive issues all my life and kefir made all that go away. I am giving it even to my dog now
My dog loves kefir too
I as well have bloating especially up top with flabby lower belly and have tried everything, for about a year had heartburn followed by a cough, so I'm taking L-carnosine and cabbage and glutathione. Goin to start taking dandelion from info I knew about and from Dr. Berg's newest video this morning, plus looking to get kefir again, in the past I didn't think kefir worked, because we were buying cow's milk version. My husband and I do not like the goat's milk taste, he finds it to taste like b&* so I was stuck and found Alexander A2A2 grass fed whole milk sheep which is grazed on alfalfa and grass from California, but also Alexander's A2A2 Grass fed milk. I was thinking we were allergic, but I will give this manner a try again.
On POINT AGAIN Dr Berg!
Thank You! I consume a little bit
of kefir & other probiotics almost

issues & don't get sick easily either.

Hi dr Berg, just wanted to thank you for all your videos where you are diving really deep into so much bio/well being topics!.
Thanks you to i've started IF + LCHF way of living and guess who's waking up at sunrise, well-rested and fresh while loosing weight at the same time :)
Low bows from 🇵🇱!
can you share where and how got started? I'd like to try this.
What does LCHF stand for?
@@nancyellen8006 i think low carb high fat
@@nancyellen8006 Hi, exactly as blind bandit mentioned - low carbs high fat. As names states you eat as few carbs as possible. Difference between vanilla keto is higher proteins, for example i can eat well with cheese and kefir/ buttermilk. In my opinion it's easier to maintain due to wider selection of foods to choose from.
@@donna8243 well, what can i say. I've started in my house (;p) from 116kg somewhere 2wks ago.
I've heard about this "no carbs" diet which was totally insane at first glance, because here in Poland bread and potatoes are as common ingredients as pasta is for Italians. But i've tried nevertheless, BMI factor was telling me that i am way too short for my mass so i had to do something.
Once looking for more infos about what i am actually doing and what side effects can affect me, i've stumbled upon dr Berg's videos and thanks to his really detailed analysis on molecular level i was convinced that i chose right path.
Shortly after i've started 16:8 IF, now i feel pretty comfortable with 20:4, sometimes even prolonging fasts.
If you rather wanted to ask how i started and maintained - it's rather simple. Stop counting calories, drop carbs and look how you are feeling. If you will want to go further into better you - consider 16:8. Protip: you will feel hunger during first 2 days, but it isn't nothing that couldn't be drowned in water (literally). Wanna eat? Drink glass of water instead. Water tastes too lean? Add lemon juice. I am sure that i've seen on dr Berg's channel somewhere a clip about recommended drinks recipies.
Last but not least - remember that dropping carbs (and by that i mean sweetening tea, sodas, bread, fries, corn and oat flakes) greatly improves your chances to stay on IF. Hunger isn't then as nagging as it would be when you'd have empty stomach and lacking of sugar.
i might had some headstart as i stopped sweetening my tea few years ago, i was so obese that i rather chose apple over jellies or candybars, if you are in "sugar junkie" point of your life, seriously consider looking for breaking sugar addiction first.
ps. now i am 109kg and i cannot consider myself as "starving"; in fact i am eating better than ever ;) feel free to ask more questions, i am willing to share to extent of my own experiences.
Add water to yogurt(yogurt with less saturated fat & organic) & make it liquidy & add a bit of turmeric. Take this before sleep, you will get much better sleep.
every single word of yours, dear Dr. Berg is a piece of heaven for our healthy body!!! I've been making both milk (cow/goat) for many years - for myself, and my family, but also for our sourdough bakery's customers - I could tell many stories about how beneficial were my kephirs for many, especially those with skin problems, intestine problems, stomach problems, but also with atopic eczema!!! Thank you for being so supportive of many!!!
.... I'm allergic to dairy. It feeds my atopic eczema. Any alternatives?
But isn't milk made for babies of the same species, nature tells us something
its a piece of science, not heaven
I love kefir..................and I love fasting, perfect.
Thank you Dr Eric Berg, you are a messiah, giving us free advice. Thank you for this social work.

Thanks again for all your advice.

Hi Dr Berg I’m having trouble finding kefir at the store I have trouble sleeping through the night thanks a bunch for so many natural healing through your videos
Thanks for your kind Dr.
I was eating/drinking Kefir for a while and it’s not too bad. I would put it on my oatmeal at the time pre keto.
I give it a thumbs up 👍🏻
I mixed it with fresh carrot juice and added flaxseeds to it. Made a yummy drink.
Not too bad? It’s fucking delicious 😂

I sometimes make a smoothie with it adding in frozen blueberries and a little protein powder. Yummy!
@@repentandbelieveinjesuschr6259 ya I was thinking of going read the bible, and going to church.

Hey.. how long before going to bed did you take Kifer?
He is an absolute legend
You Dr. Berg are a Saint!
Thank you Dr Berg for your Keto evangelism! Your info delivery is always clear and simple. I just wander why did’t you mention the ketocompatibility of kefir? I grew up on Kefir in former USSR, and will be happy to drink it on regular basis.
He mentioned it in the comment section right above your comment as I see it and he pinned it.
Please don't compare him to an evangelist,so bad
Thank you doctor Berg. I will definitely try this source. I have watched your other recommended videos and love them all. You have so much helpful information.
I also want to be well and strive to do so. Starting tomorrow, which will be the 8 June 22. I'm so excited. I can't wait to start. RESPECT!!!!
It's the 10th today. And already our energy levels have balanced everyday since myself and one other family member has started drinking kefir.
That drink is a little miracle worker. There was no kale. So we drank kefir just to get a sample of happiness. And sprouts and I haven't touched our avocados as yet, but it's once a week isn't it. I tried the keto diet today on the 10th of June 22. But only had one egg haha.however I ate it with half of my plate being sprouts and lettuce. My levels of energy has been better than before. Today I brought watercress and I will use sprouts and 4 boiled eggs, I really want 5 boiled eggs for tomorrow breakfast. I hope to balance my 2 meals for the day. Cause I worry about my insulin. I just need to look at my stomach and know Dr Berg is right. Thx again doctor Berg
@@alexanderhans3266 Yes I add exercise too. And my job is alot of exercise too.
I feel much healthier, and can combat of my flu than before. It's fantastic 😄
And I will not follow any one else's advice. Look at all his followers. They are happy

Hi from Scotland 🏴
I have never heard of Kefir before, but on your recommendation am going to try it.
For a long time now I have had a problem sleeping.
I have to concentrate to fall asleep....but it's nearly always a shallow sleep.
Truthfully, have had no more than 5 decent sleeps so far this year....where I wake up & feel refreshed.
Fingers crossed.🤞
Did it help? 🤔 I hope so!
Man thanks for this I can't wait to try it out
Love your videos. Glad I found you. Thank you.
Happy to found and know Dr.Berg in YT. His video and information made me understand my body more. He unselfishly share genuine medical facts and approaches to ordinary people. I even share his vids to my relatives and friends, as i am amaze on how effortless he can share his knowledge. God bless and more power Dr.Berg.
Thanks a ton Dr. Berg for such amazingly essentially useful information for improved health
Happy you found it useful! Be well!

Love your content so much Dr Berg! Thank you
Most welcome! Glad you enjoy the videos!
I saw this video several months ago. We live in a rural area and have access to raw milk at $4/gallon. Many times the milk is so fresh it’s still warm as he’s milking as I’m filling my containers. I started making my own Kiefer and consuming at least a cup (maybe more) right before I go to bed. IT WORKS! I used to wake up at 2,3,4 am and I was wide awake. I also took Dr. bergs advice and not consume anything after 6 pm and make myself stay up until 10 pm. It took a a couple weeks but I now sleep through the night and usually wake up around 7-7:30 am and sometimes later.I don’t get up to go to the bathroom (64yo male) and I find myself with much more energy throughout the day. I’m making raw milk cheeses and our own butter. The milk itself is delicious and so thick and creamy. Thank you Dr. Berg for this advice.
I m from USA
How do u make them
I have never seen it or heard of please help,
Thank u for this great information
Wow!!! Thanks Dr. Berg. I've been making your kefir, blueberry, kale smoothie and loving how it makes me feel. Now, you've given me a way to make my own kefir. Yaaay!!
@Texasgirlinacrazyworld Hi appreciate the "heads up". As we know, every body is different. I drank spinach smoothies for months and months and had to have surgery to remove a kidney stone. Thanks to Dr. Berg, I now know how to guard against that happening again. Love, love kale--especially cooked in my Zuppa Tuscana soup, in salads, and now in the blueberry smoothie. No problems for me. Good luck on your health journey🙏🏽
Dr. Berg! Because of you I do OMAD/IF Little to NO inflammation! Lost some weight! Feel Amazing 🤩 Thank you
Hi.what is OMAD/IF ?
@@Goalsburnt One Meal A Day OMAD
Intermittent Fasting IF 🙂
Awesome 👏 thank you for sharing.
Dr. Eric, I am so glad I came across your information on Kefir. I make my own now and I truly love it. I am not a milk drinker but I love this stuff. On my own I made a shake with Kale leaves, blueberries and Kefir I also added cinnamon. Today I discovered your video on the same thing! Lol.
Thank you for doing these videos.
Omg! I have chronic sleep issues. I am so happy I came across this video as I’ve seriously been struggling with my sleep. Additionally, I’ve been thinking about trying kefir (I’ve never tried it before) and making it at home vs store bought kefir. I was so pleased to learn the benefits of kefir from Dr. Berg as I trust his research and knowledge 🙌🏻🙏🏻. I am also glad to have discovered which kefir grains Dr. Berg endorses and will order the ones he recommended in his video.
