In this video, Dr. Berg talks about vitamin B deficiency. Transketolase is the enzyme for the vitamin B deficiency test. Enzymes are the things that do the work in the body and B1 is involved in five different enzymes. Vitamin B1 deficiency is called beriberi and is known as a great mimicker of disease. He also talks about several reasons why you become deficient in B1.
B1 functions:
• Making energy
• Protection of cells and mitochondria against oxidation or free radicals

"Instead of going out and getting a test, it's much easier just to take B1 & see if you feel better..." I NEVER thought I'd hear an American doctor say something like this! This man is what we need! Keep up the good work, common sense, honesty, integrity, & logic Dr. Berg!!!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼
I feel like he's talking about me.
@@baariyey7099He is!

I highly recommend also watching Andrew Huberman, he's a scientist. Watch his videos on improving your mind and physical health, because of him I learned Males specifically suffer from lack of testosterone. I started taking Fadogia Agrestis with Tongkat Ali, ashwghanda, also b vitamins, these have boosted my overall energy and mood. Dr Berg and Andrew Huberman have saved me a ton from bogus doctor visits that probably would've just prescribed some over priced vitamins anyway.

I can honestly say in ALL my years of trying to help my son deal with bipolar, ptsd, etc and then my type 2 diabetes and artery issues, NOT ONCE have my doctors tested me for vit deficiencies nor my son. As soon as I came across Dr. Berg's channel, my son is off all the deadly battery of medications and it's night and day and I'm still working on getting clear of my issues. It's getting better and better and the B1 and other B's was one of the biggest differences. Dr. Berg's information is literally saving my life and my sons. I cannot thank him enough.
Wow, thank you for sharing. I really needed to hear that I could help myself as well as both of my children. We have those issues.
Now get him 10,000 iu of vitamin D3 a day and 100 mcg of k2 with it! U can Supplement the k2 or get him 2-4 pasture raised eggs a day!!! Please do that it has choline too it’ll change everything also believe in Jesus read his word
My doctor tests for vitamin deficiencies. She us an internist, and she is licensed in integrative medicine.
GOD IS GOOD DR BERG IS A GODSEND 🙏✨💞
I have learned to do my own research and not just listen to my Dr. a few times I've had to confront her on incorrect information. Anyway. I have several family members with Bipolar. I live with someone that suffers from it.
I'm a registered nurse and I could just binge watch Dr. Berg's videos. I love being refreshed on our anatomy and physiology and I always learn something new. Our bodies are fearfully and wonderfully made by our Creator. Thank you Dr. Berg for all that you do.
Thanks for all you nurses do! Nurses are miles above doctors as far as caring for patients and listening. Traits most doctors lack. Most docs are ego oriented, not open to learning new information. If only more doctors were more patient focused like most nurses are.
Amen!
Amen ❤
AMEN!Shelly
Amen
I thought I was going to die. So many doctors. So many tests….
Not better.
Almost a decade of this I’ve suffered. About 5mi ago I woke up and could hardly walk. Sudden sciatica pain that was unexplained. Debilitating.
We did an epidural that didn’t help and then a nerve block. I finally let the gastro doc do all the tests I’d avoided and at the end he said I was perfectly fine but had a severe b-12 deficiency that a recent h-Pilori infection had made worse.
I got my first shot and the next day I could see sound and hear color. I was absolutly amazed.
I’m happy I’m not dying and looking forward to my next 7 shots but then once monthly for life.
He said I can’t store iron and can’t absorb b-12…..so with b-12 shots he’s hoping I’ll store iron and get my red count fixed.
Plz have buttermilk with 3-4 pinches of turmeric, cumin powder, black pepper, black salt
I had that same experience eating a weed brownie 😅
I would ask why...why can't you store iron and absorb B12... fix that.
@@millerlisa1this was my first thought too.
It's really disturbing and dangerous that regular doctors and nurses are missing all of this nutritional information about vitamin deficiencies. They give more and more drugs with a long list of side effects instead of fixing the vitamin deficiencies. ☹️😥💔
they are just memorizers but not real healers to make $.
Some doctors here in Brownsville Texas wanted sent my husband to hospice because of cancer and he was no talking , with memory lost and sleeping all the day no eating...I had to agreed to a feeding tube. After 2 months and not improvement I took my husband against medical advice out that hospital. We went to Houston and they found b1 deficit.... They treat him with IV b1 and he back to normal....talking and eating in his own.. . I can't believe 5 doctors in that hospital could not diagnose right my husband
Drug companies LOVE this fact!! 😅
@@nadiarincon9036 I'm so glad your husband is doing sooo much better now! Its wonderful you acted on your gut instincts. I agree so many illnesses are vitamin decencies related. Its a shame doctors refuse to look in this corner. Take care Terry
This is why Chiropractors are becoming a more standard of care and a PCP for many patients. They are a better point of entry to care and can refer for traditional medical care if needed.
More information in 16 minutes than 10 years of seeing doctors. Health care reform begins with Dr. Berg.
Dr Berg for President 2020!!
That's no lie. Been seeing doctors all my life and they've just made things worse!
TX2200000 Amen, that’s the truth
why would you ever wish that S on a great human being : ) and don't you know Presidents are not elected, but groomed and groomed in herds, until needed for a specific task in office, one of which is to make the public ballenced and happy, or thereabouts : )
Most doctors are clueless on nutrition and it never crosses their minds.
who else feels like they are deficient in everything
Because the soils are depleted of all nutrients!
Look at what product binding compounding products you are consuming as a consumer.
Propolyene Glycol hibition of B1 in metabolism. Makes B1 as the Great masked imitation of multitude of diseases because without B1, Thiamin these diseases exist from lack of metabolism.
Doctors MD look at a book they learn. America consumers trusts Drs. To prescribe the pill they as consumer patients need. Miracle pill is Multi billion dollar industry yearly.
Problem there is no miracle pill. What prescribing pharmocologically is making them sicker killing them yet blaming on a disease being treated with same pill injectable that is causing exaggeration of symptoms and very possibly the disease itself.
Diabetic medication for Insulin dependent diabetics is containing Metformin for example used for insulin dependent diabetes.
Yet Propolyene glycol or sister product which ACTUALLY inhibits B1 in body( the catalyst for metabolisms life cycle), producing insulin into metabolism to burn sugar off. Propolyene Glycol produces latic acid.
Causes Worneki Encelopathy, Beri beri disease (Chronic hibition of b1, stimulating b1 defiency, Propolyen Glycol causes Keto Acidosis, Coma, death. Policy in Nursing homes is to give diabetic med after checking sugar. Yet they never go back is against policy to recheck to see if the Insulin given was working or was to much especially if the patient did not eat, thus Metformin overdosed patient because Propolyene glycol used as sweetener antifreeze preservative shelf life lengthened causes hibition of Insulin to B1 preventing ability of body to process insulin to reduce burn off excess sugar. Propolyene Glycol causes Alzheimers plaque.... and multitude other diseases that would be cured just by not digesting Propolyene glycol and sister products which are waste products of fossil fuels (petroleum products) is product from extraction of gas.
The US companies, medical companies, employ train doctors. Pharmacology drug chemical companies. Remnant though but Company towns still exist. The USA is a company nation. A nation of consumers. And Doctors are the sales represenative to prescribe what consumer is going to buy.
Meeeeee

I use to be deficient in B1 and I had restless leg syndrome. Not any more. Cleaned up my diet and take extra B1.
My blood work stated that my B1 was a 2. The lowest my doctor and nurse have seen on their careers. I have been taking B1 every day for a month and had another test, and it is good.
Do you notice a difference in how you feel after taking the B1? Better energy, sleep, or digestion?
@bartginger123 actually I did.... I am still trying to recover from a major surgery. The only thing is the sleeping.... I'm sleeping earlier than usual, but I'm not sleeping the 8 hours. Besides that I feel good.
@@enidclass9253 Thanks for your reply. Sorry to hear about your major surgery. Hope you mend quickly.
@@bartginger123 thank 😊 you
From what blood work???😮
I am a college professor & a competitive natural body builder. As I got past 65, ALL of the symptoms you mentioned, and I mean ALL of them, started showing up. The docs gave me a pill for each one of them. The latest is my memory. At 65 plus, and knowing and dealing with people attacked by dementia, scares the living hell out of me. Thank you for the information! Great presentation!
Find a great naturopath MD or functional medicine practice to avoid Big Pharma "solutions" that will put you on a drug treadmill. I'm 65, too... but even including a naturopath, no doctor ever pointed out -- since 2003 -- that I might be B1 deficient.
Taking it just 5 days so far & I feel a difference.
I've taken so many supplements for almost a decade, but not this one.
Highly recommend trying it.
I wish Dr. Berg did a tele-medicine practice!
I hope you’ve adopted the keto way of eating and are feeling better
Here we are three months later, How are you doing Mike?
Have you started taking Benfotiamine and nutritional yeast? Have they helped you? We’d love to hear an update.
@Mike Madden hi be sure to take a good B complex and B12 Methylcobalamin too
I'm a 64 yr old retired nurse and I have suffered from anxiety, depression and chronic insomnia all my adult life, I drink a lot of coffee. So I'm off to try this b1
I have had anxiety, stress, panic attacks, insomnia, and now tiredness. Cut off caffeine, sugar, and stimulants. I started taking a few pinches of Himalayan pink salt with clean water and lime every morning. It helps with anxiety, and helps you relax. Start small. If you have high blood pressure, start with small amounts. There's another video where he talks about this on his channel. God bless you.
Me too except for being a nurse.. Me too thank you for your comment.
@@monicasweer7253 Monica let ne know about your progress taking B1 and which type. If you find anything that helps post your comment. The insomnia part is whats bothering me the most
@@davesaenz3732 I know from reading that coffee decreases b12. From years ago low b1 meant being very tired.. there are many articles and Drs on UA-cam about b1 and b12. It may be worth asking someone if you snore or stop breathing in your sleep.. as sleep apnea can also look like insomnia with tiredness because of difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep... hope this helps.
@@monicasweer7253 Thank you Monica. I will consider that. Not sure what is happening to me.
He deserves a Congressional Medal for Nutritional Motivational Speaking! Such an inspiration, Thank you Dr. Berg!
Agreed a great educator
You're so right dr. Berg is a god-sent
Absolutely God sent. 🙏
He deserves a medal but we be lucky if he doesn’t get banned from UA-cam. There’s no profit in health…
I agree
I have Parkinson's caused by a B1 transport issue to my brain. I had almost all those symptoms. I love biking & hiking and no matter how hard I trained, I ran out of energy. I could never keep up with my friends. I was in the military and told them I could breathe when I ran. I told every doctor I had fatigue. Everyone called me a whiner. Within 3-days of starting high dose B1 therapy, 75% of my Parkinson's symptoms are gone. I out hiked my friends from Colorado to the top of a mountain with no extra training. If I eat kidney beans, I get extremely ill. I was tested for a G6PD deficiency. Not it. It is the B1 deficiency. My dad also had cerebellum ataxia cause by this issue. He was never hungry and would fall asleep in his truck. The answer was so simple.
Awesome. Thanks.
Where do u get the nutritional yeast
Can u say what brands recommend please
Can you tell how much B1 dosing should one consider on average? Asking for parkinson symptoms
Thiamax is a good brand to take, it was developed by Elliot Overton
We have to take control of our own health with Dr Berg.
My daughter is in nursing school and her professors use Dr Berg videos to teach them!!😊🎉❤
I am a nurse and that’s amazing they would even consider that! Now it’s just getting doctors to order what a patient really needs. Even if the doctor wants to he is under scrutiny and can get fired for not following protocol.
Because they are lazy, dont want to take the time to put together the information
That is really cool
WOW! SO MUCH WOW!¡❤😊
Formative. I have recently started to add B1 to my vitamins. Hopefully I will see results.
Although I am a Dentist and I studied medicine too I had no solution for my insomnia problem. Thank God I saw your lecture about B 1 vitamin so the problem was solved, thanks again,
@Taiwo Omotosho really? Where are they in everyday practices.... docs only want to push pharmaceuticals
46 58 Me too. If you were near my area! But I would recommend your patronage.
brandiveh But, if they are subscribers, they are not stating their profession, it is really interesting to read this information.
My dentist knows nothing of this information or even how deficiency symptoms cause bad teeth. I hope you pass it on to your patients
Have you ever studied the work of Dr Weston A Price and Dr William NORDQUIST ???
B1 really helps, but it may keep you awake for a long time if you take it in the evening. I had to learn this the hard way, anxiety stopped, but lack of sleep caused other troubles. Simply taking it early in the day completely solved this problem and the benefits persist.
Thanks for the tip!
Thank you for the tip of sleepless
@@magdelinalee2101 lo
One time per day? What is the dosage? Could you share your experience?
Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Started taking b1 100 3x a day after my Dr recommended it and oh my god the difference. I didn't understand how people had energy to go to the gym, now I have the energy to exercise. I feel like I can think more clearly, I have don't feel so foggy, my anxiety has dropped completely, I'm sleeping better, and I just all around feel like I can get on with my life.
It's still crazy to me how lacking a single vitamin can have such a huge impact on your life. Highly recommend it to anyone suffering with fatigue. I went from doing the bare minimum because of energy restrictions to cleaning my whole house going to work, and still having energy to do a workout after.
Mind sharing the brand you're using?
Also are you still experiencing benefits?
My doctor said I have anxiety disorder and gave me Xanax, Buspiron and I couldn't help it. After doing my own research, I have B1 deficiency and I start out taking 100mg, 3 times a day for next 2 weeks and 100mg/day after that. Wow! I can feel the different on the first day! I have all symptoms all year round everyday and I have no quality of life before taking B1 supplement.
@@Scott-xq2dm If you have some health problems, it is hard to fix, because the body is complex and most Dr. will give you some unhealthy remedies. I have been watching a lot of Dr. Berg content. Now i make my own Kefir, take D and Omega 3 and yesterday i bougth Vitamin B1. I also do sunbathing and exercise 3x a week. Hope, I will get rid of my sleeping problems finaly.
What brand, please?
I just cannot emphasize enough how this "Great Imitator" of other illnesses did precisely THAT to me. You are truly a gift to the world. You're disseminating this information free of charge whereas Allopathic Medicine Doctors don't pass-on this information even after charging hefty fees. Thank you so much!
YES!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
God bless this man.. Truly
Yesss thank you Dr Berg
I bet they hate this guy so much.
Explosive information. Yet indicative of common sense. Diet in moderation,no sugar. Doing is harder than seeing!
Watched it 6 times. In a row. I appreciate your hard work in making these videos.. They have changed my life
Why would you watch it so many times? Do you have bad memory?
Mine too!!
I have been depressed and have anxiety for more than 10 years!!! I am undiagnosed but I’m well read on what my symptoms are. I bought B1 and B12, and it really helps! I was calling out of work before at least once a week!!! Now I’m able to go to work and focus 🧘🏽♀️ And not come home tired! My body aches and pains have decreased tremendously, I’m not as hungry anymore, and I’m overall more calm and not nervous. I can actually stand next to someone without social anxiety! My memory has gottten better! I couldn’t exercise before without being in too much pain afterwards but now I can! I’ve been having dizzy spells before, but they went away. I don’t ever really sweat but have started sweating more. I was having trouble breathing, I thought it was just my asthma but no my breathing has gotten so much better since taking these vitamins. It’s even, and well paced and I’m not wheezing. Etc etc However it makes me feel so good, that I don’t even want to go to sleep at night!!! Life feels so good now!! I want to do everything!!! I thought I was a homebody, no I was house-bound! Not by choice! And I’m only 27 and was suffering from this. My life is starting to change for the better
🤟🏾❤️🙏🏾
I can second you I start taking both and start to feel so much better
Happy for you
Have you taken b1 or b12 deficiency test or consulted doctor before taking them?
how many mg did you take??
I’m 72 and I have learned more about my body in the one month I have discovered Dr. Berg than my whole lifetime school, doctor visits etc. I recommend his channel to everyone I know. Not only do I want to enjoy a healthier life I want my family & friends to also! Keep up the good work my friend.
I discovered Dr Berg around the beginnings of the pandemic! However, my daughter had told me about him when she and her husband had been following keto the year before. Like you I learned so much! About a year ago I tried the vitamin B1 that Dr Berg suggested and I couldn’t believe the improvement in my energy and the feeling of fatigue was much less. Once I added the Benfotiamine to my daily vitamins it helped greatly.
@@wandaspencer9523Are we suppose to take benfothiamine 7.5 mg every day and how many months , Am suffering from chronic fatigue
Our soil is deficient so the food is deficient too!
Well your friends are more open minded than mine. Mine only trust their doctors who hand them pills.
Vitamin deficiencies is a real thing! All of my heart issues have been directly related to low iron, magnesium and potassium. It’s insane how easy of a fix many of our symptoms are if you do not have any serious illness (or even if you do)! Take your vitamins y’all
So true! How do you get enough potassium? It's so hard because you can't find any potassium supplements over about 2% of the daily recomendation.
@@amyjon6057 I really like broccoli and beans or take supplements when I need it. Magnesium deficiency seemed to affect me the most, so either CALM powder that’s mixed with water or mixed nuts which I enjoy to eat. OTC vitamins seem to work best when I’m not getting enough in my diet.
I had a heart cath because of arrhythmias caused by elevated homocysteine levels, Caused by low folate, caused by gastric surgery 20 years previous! Rx of Nufola set me straight. Methylfolate and b12. Go figure. My heart was clean as a whistle
@@amyjon6057 you can use Morton's "no salt: its pure potassium, you sprinkle it on food, its a tad bitter, but will give you 610 mgs in 1/4 teaspoon. Or ask your doc to prescribe it, mine did, i take meq8 potassium, each pill has 600 mgs slow release potassium, and she has me on 3 pills. even though I eat a ton of veggies, my numbers are always on the low side so she Rx me. I do sweat a lot so I lose a lot of salt and low carb means I need electrolytes!
@@amyjon6057potassium powder in water is how I do it. I take up to 2000mg in a gallon jug of water throughout the day.
Literally 2 dr’s and no help or diagnosis. This guy is a freaking gem ❤❤❤

@nellek970 Not everyone gets their notifications or knows how click on them to get back to the post to reply.
FYI: Not all UA-cam users are device savvy. A daughter or grandughter may have set up their account in order for them to watch videos & make a comment or two. Just because someone comments doesn't mean they are capable of or will reply to any or every reply or query to their comment.
Also, for people who are UA-cam savvy, they actually have demanding jobs or lives & so may not time to constantly check their accounts for replies. Some people run their own channels & so may already have too much on their plate to find time to answer a question on a video they may have simply commented on.
Hating a stranger you don't know for not doing something for another stranger may or may not be quite egotistical/ narcissitic. You wanted the answer to the question & because it wasn't sitting there on a gilded plate waiting for you to access, like a book upon a library shelf, it is time to have a toddler moment. Please don't hate someone else that you don't even know or a situation you don't know. It doesn't make you look good.
Good day!
@nellek970 Okay, I can understand that you want the answer from your reply that isn't showing in the feed. I don't know whether you erased your reply or if you PM'd me, but I got the message.
I guess "hate" has just become such an overused word & an overabused practice. I won't censor you & I'm sorry that I censured you harshly.
Have a great day!
@nellek970 I apologized to you & yet you are going to give me an English lesson using the word Lat? Yeah, right.
And it was used as a verb, meaning your activity, action, is hate. It sure wasn't love. And I really dont see where you can say that I insinuated that you directed hate as a person. You said 'I hate'. And explained that is selfish & over the top for just not replying to a YourTube request for additional info.
Name calling & hate. Really? That's all you have? That's what the younger generation is all about, as much as you may wish it isn't so. Hate is synonymous with the Millenials on.
Have at it, honey. Hate me, too, if it makes you feel good. Step onto the top step of your self-constructed pedestal. It reveals what your heart is full of.
Yet, you claim to want to help your demented relative that you referred to in your deleted post. Who do you think that you are kidding? It's all about you, honey. As McD's says, Loving It. Loving yourself.
When you're old, you'll have taught your youngin's to be as nasty as you. That is, if you haven't 'chosen' that being a parent is inconvenient. Do you think he, she, zee, or it will care about your dementia?
Hate is a strong word & if my pointing that out offends you, I'm so very sorry. I guess getting up to change the TV channel or having only one corded phone in one room of the house or only a library to go to dobresearch would be utter hell for your limited sensibilities. Poor little itty-bitty baby.
Hope you get the chip off of your shoulder before it pulls you down.
@nellek970 It is downright funny that you couldn't even decide if hate was an adverb or a verb in your sentence construct.
Then, you said the hate was directed toward an act. No, your hate was directed toward an inaction, which is quite the opposite of an act(ion).
Unfortunately, public school education must be on click & paste curriculums these days.
The person who made the original post did not 'wrong' you, or anyone else for that matter, by not responding.
For all you know, she or her mother passed on or another event has occurred that has made it so she no longer has internet access.
And yet, you are so full of yourself as to take offense by her inactivity.
Grow up & get a conscience.
You said it SIDS is a B1 deficiency & vaccinations deplete B1
I read years ago that SIDS was a vitamin c deficiency.

I actually have Every symptom that you mentioned regarding B1 deficiency. So I think that I have finally found the solution to my health issues. Thank you so much Doctor Berg.
Update please
How did B1 help? What kind and brand
@@dreyah01B1 changed my life. 9 years of suffering.
Hi, has taking b1 helped your symptoms go away? If so, how long did it take?
I'm at 16:34 in the video..
.and I am speechless. Tears fill my eyes but don't come streaming down my cheeks due to their lack of substance. So sorry this is a long one...You have just described my 5 year journey... to a tee. I have been suffering from 95% of these ailments. I have developed epileptic seizures on top of everything. My Doctor has tested me for everything from Cancer to RA to Lupus and many others. We have only determined for certain, that I indeed have low red blood cell and a B12 deficiency. Which I get B12 shots for but my numbers never change or only increase slightly. For the past 3 years My Doctor has label what I am going though as Fibromyalgia and swept everything else under the rug and told me that I will just have to deal with my Fibromyalgia like everyone else. I developed epileptic seizures 2 years ago and even my Neurologist is stumped... I do not necessarily agree that I have Fibromyalgia and I have been doing everything in my power to get back to how I was 5 years ago. I was looking up non alcoholic fatty liver and came across this video. It is exactly what I have been going though...I looked up excess estrodial, wow... I am filled with optimism, hope and gratitude. 5 years ago when this all started I was very ill with Chronic Bronchitis and a small bout of pneumonia. I was on antibiotics for almost 8 months on and off (mostly on). I had no idea about gut flora or any other ways to stay healthy naturally back then and was just trying to work and keep my job. I didn't realize the damage I was causing. I trusted my Doctor. My Doctor has only tried to prescribe me pain meds and antidepressants for my nerve pain. Which I have refused indefinitely and feel as though this is why my Doctor has given up on me. I truly believe that this is what I have been looking for! I am going to beat this and I am going to get better! Thank you! Thank you! I will try to keep anyone who wants to know updated here in this comment section... thanks for reading!
@HOH Thank you for the encouragement!
Robertine Buckley Go Robert Go! You will get by and you know it!
Stay positive, you are on the right track! Dr Berg has almost 2 million subscribers for very good reasons. His information helps people who have been lost in health care systems.
Really sad that doctors are not trained in nutrition anymore isn't it?! I suffered my whole life with leg cramps they were horrible doctors just told my parents that I was having growing pains. it wasn't until I was in my forties and having my gallbladder removed that the doctor at the hospital tested my blood and discovered that I was deficient in magnesium. Then I found out that that was also the reason for my heart palpitations, all I had to do was supplement years ago and I would have been fine , but no, doctors don't know anything anymore they're just trained on how to listen to drug reps and give you a pill.
@@efekilic7998 "Yer darn tootin'!" 😄 With the right tools and knowledge and wonderful people like you!!! Thanks!
Dr.Berg, thank you 🙏 you save me,I was terrible bad no energy at all for a few months i stared to worry, my doctor told me that I was ok ,but no.i wasn’t ok. So i discovered B1 help,I take it and now im ok.
Very glad to be of help.
Love it. I am a Pastry Chef for 20 years, barely we make it to lunches and kept eating baked goods, basically ate Sugars and Carbs. All this have taken a fair toll on my body and ability to think. This video means a lot. This should be mandated to all students who study baking and Pastry Arts. Thank you for your video.
This is what I have suffered with my entire life. Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at 7. All along, it was a B1 Deficiency. I don't have any problems from diabetes, only B1 Deficiency. I am now 60. Now I know why I suffered from most of the B1 Deficiency symptoms all my life. Thank you!
This is the greatest video I've ever come across, I never new that Vitamin B1 was so important. No apology necessary in regard to the length of the video, in fact I'd love to see more longer videos from you Dr. Berg.
I love his concise videos but when more information needs to be conveyed, I appreciate these longer videos.
Thanks Dr Berg. I got much better since I started following you. Stopped all my diabetic medications
Wonderful! So glad to hear that!
Amazing how many things B1 is involved in! As a therapist I so often wonder how much poor nutrition and deficiencies are involved in my clients' mental health. When people have anxiety problems I often asked them to have their doctor test their magnesium levels, but now I'm also going to start telling them to ask to have their B1 and transketolase tested, too!
I am 50 yrs old! I tried B1 and have been feeling great for 3 weeks now. It is kind of scarry. 100 mil two times a day. a pork chop has enough B1 for a day!
Blessings
Thank you!!! I was just telling someone, your 'mental illness' is partially, at least, physiological in nature, you may be feeling so lethargic not because you aren't happy with your life, but because you are physiologically depleted; this and regenerating the adrenal glands, rest, relaxation, hope, faith, etc!! How do these things not come into a holistic way of treating any illness, treat the whole organism!!!
I’ve looked into vitamins/minerals connected to anxiety, happiness, depression etc and I think that the ones that seem the most prominent to me is zinc, magnesium, B vitamins, omega 3s and to some extent vitamin D3. It seems like a lot of the B vitamins are related to mental health/energy other than just B1. If someone were having pretty bad anxiety/depression and thinks it’s physiological I’d recommend them Magnesium glycinate or bisglycinate 400-800 mg titrate up to 800 and see if that benefits you more than 400, zinc picolinate 30-60mg would titrate up on that too see if 60 is better or worse than 30, a good B complex vitamin, a fish oil supplement then vitamin D3 1000-5000 IU depending on how much sun they get/have gotten recently or test results if they test. I’d say vitamin D3 is more optional though, if they get enough sun id assume it wasn’t an issue and the studies are more inconclusive on D3’s connection to happiness.
@@prestonjones8672Yes, b vits for nerves, vit D3 for whole immune system
I appreciate the attention to detail. Your oratory style is smooth and low stress. Thank you for these videos and the time you spend developing each one. These are a real value to everyone who chooses to view them :)
Since your first video on B1 I went out and I got two bottles I take four a day it's been 6 days my breathing is excellent I have a CPAP already. I also had extreme extreme fatigue which you answered in the B1 vitamin.
I had extreme pain in my back which led to my hands and wrists being numb that is all disappearing if I held something too long my fingers would go numb my hand would go numb but yesterday and today which would have been the 5th day and the 6th day it's barely noticeable.
The me that was lying down inside of me asking for rest rest has awakened and the energy is almost to a teenager and I'm 81. laugh out loud.
When wearing my mask I don't have to breathe through my mouth and when I take a breath in I can feel the air go all the way up to my eyes which was never before so many more positive things but thank you thank you thank you
Hi I just realized my dentures don't hurt me, I can ware them all day.
Praise god for sending Dr Berg video for u to see god bless DR Berg and you tpo
Can u tell me what brand
And how much mg
This was the most comprehensive video.ive found so far on on B1. Thank you so much
The BEST informational video on the negative effects of B-1 deficiency.
So detailed!
If we can't see where the root of the problems are, we can't pull out the root!
This is amazing!!! I was diagnosed with Peripheral neuropathy a week ago with my feet being so painful more so than my hands. I also have shortness of breath, dizziness (vertigo) , GERD and lack of energy but now just after 2 days of 300mg B1 (benfotiamine) I feel GREAT! I haven't had burning feet along with pins and needles in my hands since taking. Dr. Berg I love you so much for this information, please continue to do what you do best.....help heal with natural approaches and not just prescribe a pill to take like 95% of doctors do. You are truly the best!
What B1 are you taking?
@@ilovecornell She said she takes Benfotiamine, which is the absolute best form of B1. She also specified she takes 300mgs. a day, but in other Dr. Berg videos, he says you should take twice that amount (600mgs. a day)!
Sorry, Andre Taylor is a male! I incorrectly said “she” in my reply, above.
@@jbeauty4150 Most all supplements should be taken with food and water, to the best of my knowledge. Since Benfotiamine is fat soluble, definitely so! Minerals are okay to take only with water, for the most part,though.
@@jbeauty4150 No side effects that I am aware of.
LOVE the fluidity of this!! No verbal pausing!! The information was great, the background of the presenter outstanding!! I will watch again and will pass this along.
Thanks for putting this together and sharing.
I agree. One thing I like about Dr Berg’s presentations is he doesn’t make it about himself. It is purely about the information. I dislike those that lean toward making their “personality” the draw. Dr Berg is so humble.
Excellent. Just loads and loads of information. Must watch whether you are deficient in B1 or not. This video will future proof you against all b1 deficiencies symptoms. Dr Berg has made a lot of effort to share this knowledge.
Dr Berg should be educating Diabetic Doctors So they can teach their patients about Vitamin B1. Thank you Dr Berg!!
Doctors are merely patsies for big pharma !! They don’t give a s**t about your health !!! They do care a lot about your bank balance !!!
So true
BIG TIME!!!!!!!
I've been struggling for three years, doing plenty of bloodworks, meet so many doctors and experts, because I experience so many symptomps of diseases: indigestion, heartburn, dizziness, vertigo, anxiety, constipation, low blood sugar, weak legs, edema... And none of them can be cured by a single sweep and they just come and go. I lose weight to below normal.
I fix my diet, and that help about 20-30%. Recently, i watch Dr.Berg food recommendation and ask myself, what the hell i've been eating? I am not familiar to nutritional yeast for certain, but I buy it online. Just in case I am B1 deficient. I take it and boom!!!!!!!!!!! It works! I eliminate my stool much better in the morning, my gut is much more relieved, and i feel so balanced.
(I love that 'boom' because dr.berg use it almost all the time).
I cant explain in words how magical the nutritional yeast works, but i hope this remedy is my one big solution... I am still not into keto diet, but I just feel great. Thank you dr.berg. May God bless you the best things in ur life!
Have you had your adrenals checked?
Sir how many tablet per day?
@@michaeljohnnaval3144 it is not a tablet. Nutritional yeast is something you sprinkle on your food, like parmesan cheese. I add it to all of my salad dressings and then sprinkle it on top of anything with carbs, like brown rice, which I still eat occasionally.
Me too honey I'm showing this to my Dr. I've been thinking I'm crazy , my God I'm not , I can't stop crying , and on top of it all I had a massive heart attach 1 1/2 yrs ago no wonder I can't get better
@@michaeljohnnaval3144 Dr Berg tablets: 9.... 3ea x 3x per day. I can't wait until I finish this bottle so I can go back to sprinkling it in my coffee by the spoonfuls! I forgot how much I LOVE that thing!
I’ve had periodic falls for a year with intense loss of muscle strength. My 2nd fall left me on my driveway for 5 hrs until my neighbor came home and helped me up. The next morning I fell out of bed and again no muscle energy. Used my toes to push myself to the next room to reach my phone which took apprx 2 hours to call 911. No answers from hospital drs. Developed vertigo and have had numerous falls since. No energy, shallow breathing. No answers from my dr. Now it all makes sense. I’ve been on B1 and b complex for about 10 days. Slow improvement but at least I have hope. Thank you Dr Berg. O, on Keto, lost 20 lbs so far!

@Toucan Tango I hope you are feeling better by now . I've had similar but not so dramatic experience. K
Update?
Tom Jerry
I was just diagnosed with cryptosporidium that probably came from well water. Having had it for a year and 7 months it has infiltrated my intestines, lungs and middle ear and was only discovered after I continued to research my symptoms periodically pushing my drs to run certain tests. Doctors complain about malpractice insurance but I think they should pay much more for all the malpractice they practice. My immune system is in shambles after fighting this for so long. Children in 3rd world countries and HIV patients die from this. I just took $440 worth of medication I will probably have to repeat. I may never get rid of it. But all the nutritional changes I have tried to make have had little effect bc I’ve had unwelcome critters destroying my digestion and my breathing capacity. If I was stronger I might have been able to advocate for myself better, but after being swept under the rug or out the door by doctors I learned to feel helpless and give up. Only extreme misery forced me to keep trying.
@@4estdweller4ever Check out Dr. Todd Watts who specializes in parasites.
🤯🤯🤯 Dr Berg…this video could be a life changer! I’ve had MS since 2000 and in 2015 I developed vertigo and have been type 2 since 2022. I saw your video on B1 and bladder issues, I take oxybutynin for it. Since I saw that video I’ve watched another one that was recommended and my mind was blown dy the info shared and I texted my sister to start taking B1, she is a poster child for B1 deficiency.
Alzheimer’s runs in my maternal side of the family, my mom is #6 of 7. Sibling #1 died of cancer before I was born, siblings 2-5 all had Alzheimer’s. So far my mom is still good at 80, siblings #7, my uncle is the only other one left and has Parkinson’s and getting Alzheimer’s. I am sending this video to both my mom and my uncle. I am so glad that this video was recommended because it was even more informative. I will be buying B1 supplements tomorrow as well as nutritional yeast. I can never thank you enough for what you do. I am in tears because so many of my family members can benefit from it.
Did it work for you?
I wish I had known about B1 30 years ago. I grew up on a farm and got lots of B1 from my food but then things changed. Thank God for Dr. Berg.
There are no words to Thank You enough, Dr Berg.. I've been diving into your B1 videos today and during that time have finally found an answer to my friend's ongoing health issues to POTS. She's been going to Doctors for two years suffering with this syndrome and no one has been able to diagnose it.. she's nearly given up and has added her name to a wait list at an assisted living accommodation. I called her this morning to let her know that she has POTS and what we will do to remedy this. I forwarded her your videos on this and she already feels so grateful and relieved knowing that there is hope for her condition. 🙏❤
Has she started taking both? Has she seen much improvement? Oh I hope she has.
Yes, she saw some improvement after taking Benfotiamine. However it's more complicated due to a recent stroke.
@@juliearellanes9832😊
If she can please recommend she see a nutritionist and a functional dr! I have pots and I noticed my autonomic nervous system is greatly affected by it like dr Berg is saying.
I found out thru a Nuerologist and a cardiologist. But I also had a hospital incident that triggered my pots.
I understand what ur friend is going thru and I hope she can get some healing in her body 🙏
It helps to stay on electrolytes with high sodium every day and wear compression leggings and do isometric exercises. I have noticed working with a nutritionist has helped a ton. If ur friend just had a stroke maybe she can see a PT to help her after her stroke.
I hope ur friend is doing better.
I have a suffered with so many of these symptoms for so many years; ADHD, restless leg syndrome, anxiety, stress, constant struggle to get a deep breath brain fog, lack of stamina, excessive thinking, sweating, insomnia and this just gave me so much information. Very enlightening. Started taking nutritional yeast based off of your video about ADHD and now I see I need to take 4 tbsp instead of 2. I learn so much from your videos. Thank you!
Yes and benfotiamine also
Hugs
What suppliment you take ❓️
You are mercury toxic.

Welcome to our Channel, very glad you are here! Thanks for watching!

The B1 presentation was excellent! Thank you!
Hello how are you
My life is outlined in this video!! I am starting B1 supplements as soon as I can. I hope this is the answer to the chronic fatigue and exercise intolerance I've experienced for the past 10+ years. And I've tried everything! So glad this video popped up. Thank you so much Dr. Berg - this was a great education!
So? How'd it go?
Any updates?
how are u now?
Your information is so wonderful. I’m taking your yeast tablets and your electrolyte powder. I can’t believe the changes in my body. I was pre diabetic, I had pitting edema, tingling in my hands, I was always bloated in my stomach, I had insulin resistance and my weight just kept going up. And I stayed in fight or flight mode I had no energy to exercise, insomnia. Almost all of the B1 deficiency. Lack of stamina.
I’ve only been taking B vitamins for 2 months and been doing Keto for 2 1/2 months and all of those symptoms have gone and are going away and I’m down 53 lbs. Thank You Dr Berg. Your videos are making me healthy from the inside out. My skin and hair even look better.
Thank you for your comments, you explained my problems perfectly
Wow, that’s a lot of bags of information never knew B1 was that important?
This was so so incredibly helpful and very informative. I started taking B1 and I had Gerd and bad digestive problems. It's resolved !
I had bad anxiety , panic attacks and insomnia. Now that I started taking B1 the anxiety has subsided considerably.
This is a life saving for me! Thank you , Thank you,
Thank you Dr Berg!
You are so AWESOME!!!
Did u take it with B complex??
Hi Sylvie, Did you take it at morning , evening or any time,with food/not food? Thanks.
Hi There how many mg did you take per day please? Thank you
What is the dosage of B1 you take daily and is it benefotiamine
Wow. 50 years suffering undiagnosed symptoms, all of which you covered here, and doing all the things you explain deplete B1... this is a bombshell of information for me. Thank you for putting this out here.
Same thing for me. Dr. Berg is a God send! Here's to your health Aqua Mom!
Have been taking liquid benfotiamine for about a month! I am diabetic and have neuropathy! Pain is about half of what it was! Also dealing with congestive heart failure! Have been able to lose 30 lbs. Going to lose 20 more! Your video is very enlightening
Tom Chastain: how much du you take daily?
@@nicoletakasamas9201 I buy the liquid form and take 2 dropperful a day! If you buy capsules or pills take 600mg per day is the information I got from a doctor...
Can't remember the doctors name but he is on youtube
@@tomchastain7931 👍✋Thank you
I’m a little confused. Lol. In Dr. Berg’s video he shows L- Tyrosine. Is that the vitamin B1 we should take? I’m trying to look for a vitamin B1 to take.
This video is outstanding. I have all of these symptoms and PTSD due to workplace bullying; nightmares, feelings of panic or fear, and tremendous stress. I will definitely buy B1 today and buy some pork. Interestingly, I crave pork, this may be the reason why. My friend Susie told me about your last live podcast on 11/10/23 regarding hot flashes from callers. I suffer from horrible hot flashes with soaking sweat. Thank you so much for posting these B1 videos. Your honest and sincere commitment to helping others is greatly appreciated.
I appreciate your comment! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I love when your videos are longer like this one! You really go into great detail which helps me even more. Thank you!
I agree 100%
Yes.. exactly.. I was about to write the same but glad that i found your comment 🙂
TOTALLY AGREE.. LONGER VIDEOS >>>> MORE INFORMATION>>>MORE AWARENESS>>> LESS ILLNESS
@Chris Cross Why so high man?What are you trying to say?
16 minute videos are not a problem especially when I'm trying to gain insight In how to help my own health condition or family who suffer from severe illness. Beats sitting an hour in a drs office waiting just to see the dr !,which I've done plenty of times !
I think Dr. Berg's health and supplement videos are the best on the internet and that's quite a statement because there are a lot of very talented and knowledgable people presenting such videos.
I'm fortunate enough to have a doctor who diagnosed my Vit B1 deficiency. It's the one correction where results were felt very quickly . I have a small farm in the country, and have used Vit B1 injections on my older alpacas who were too weak to get up. Within minutes they're up and looking/acting as if nothing was ever wrong. Vit B1 and Vit D have completely changed my outlook on life.........a lot of wasted years unable to do the things I love, and not understanding why. Hope this video reaches those who need it. My guess is it's much more common than we realize. Thanks for going into more detail. It cleared up some valuable information I was missing. 🤗
MAYBE A V E T CAN DIAGNOSE US BETTER THAN THESE MD.S
@@drippingwater1849 You may be right! lol
What thiamine supplement did you take?
@@AbundantlyNika I got better results using Bragg's Nutritional yeast seasoning on my food rather than taking a pill. Braggs has 420% B1 per Tbsp, among other important nutrients.
@Tiger Cub I'd say it has more of a nutty flavor, but that's me. Honestly thought i wouldn't like it either, but it's really good, IMO. I put it on top of eggs , hamburger, or salad. Try mixing it with some melted butter. Some people put it in soup. Even a small amount is beneficial. Dr. Berg has done a few videos about it. Maybe he can give you a few ideas. I was given a sample from Braggs when I ordered something else. Maybe you can email them and ask if they still offer samples?
So I have MS and have been taking B1 in the past, I am now experiencing tingling in my legs and came back to Dr. Berg for info will be going back to my B1 soon as I get home.
THANK YOU, dearest Dr. Berg! You were sent by God to help the world. God bless you and your family. I never learned this in all the "sick care" I have received for these issues.
I'm so glad I saw this. This is exactly me and it's been for mostly my whole life. Thank you so much for this video! I'm ordering the Vitamin B 1 today! I have 2 auto immune diseases and I have bad neuropathy in my feet and it effects my hands also. I have edema in my lower body. I had toxemia during my first pregnancy!!!! The Dr. didn't tell me it was dangerous. I would pee only once a day! My baby came 3 weeks early which was a blessing. That was in 1961! A lot of suffering and I never knew what was the matter! 80 years old now! Now I finally have hope that I can feel better! I feel so much gratitude for you giving me this information today. I think this is going to change my life! Thank you!!!!!! Bless you!
Vertigo, anxiety, gerd, breathing problem, panic atk, etc.....exactly what I’m facing for many years. Thanks for the info Dr Berg
simon liu update
Is all that still their because B1 did nothing for my symptoms
J Washington that’s the thing! Many ailments, deficiencies and syndromes can also cause the symptoms Simon Liu is experiencing. Also, how did you take the B1? I understand that taking nutritional yeast is the best way.
Kathy Irwin thanks I tried b1 by its self
Did B1 get rid of anxiety and panic attacks ?
When I heard you talk about B1, decided had nothing to lose in giving it a try. So glad I did. Not sure if it’s normal but first day felt energy I have missed for many years now. Brain fog, lack of motivation has lifted my day has purposefully once again! Thank you for all you’re doing to educate - grateful!
Invaluable information. Nutritional yeast + B1 (Benfotamine best) is first line of defense and treatment in all neurological disorders - this can't be emphasized enough. Thank you Dr. Berg.
What's the ratio of B1 to nutritional yeast to be taken?
How many mg of Benfotamine and nutritional yeast?
Nutritional yeast doesnt have Benfotamine?
@@imvisionhoti7198 Take the nutritional yeast and add 300-1000mg/day Benfotiamine

I cannot wait to get some B1 because I have ALL of those symptoms and I'm so tired of being tired! Thank you Dr Berg!!!

Taiwo Omotosho MN and when I first got my BN, we studied supplements and diet for less than a day. EVERYTHING I’ve learned has come from colleagues or Naturopathic Doctors (brilliant wealth of knowledge there) or stumbling across Dr. Berg et al. I have to say......I’m anti-vaccine and always will be short of the childhood vaccinations as they have been around so long and the studies are solid on them but anything is a risk. I speak of MMR, DPT as my example of childhood vaccinations that I would say yes to. After that. Nope, nope, nope. The first time I refused a flu vax I had to write a 1000 word essay on WHY I refused. After that, I got smart. There was a group of us that we’re all anti-vax and we signed off on each other’s vaccinations. It’s my body and I shouldn’t be punished or bullied into a vaccine I do not want. When I received my Masters, funny enough.....I was NEVER asked again. I just did or I didn’t go for my shot. Not a word was said.
Can’t wait until COVID Vax comes out in 6-7 years (yes, you read that right because THAT is the MINIMUM time studies and trials take.) You’ll see me running the OPPOSITE way as fast as my legs will carry me.
I NEVER tell anyone what to do. I just say, do your own research, talk to as many Doctors, Naturopaths and Medical alike, as you can. Ask questions from anyone and everyone. Pharmaceutical companies, pharmacists .... anyone you can think of. Then you can make up an educated mind......and have them all go first.😉
I really needed to hear what you had to say about the B vitamins and so wish I had a doctor like you to talk/check with when adding and or removing vitamins from my diet. My mother had dementia, my father had and enlarged heart, and I have panic and anxiety, and I am 73 years old. I have taken a B complex for years but added B1 because of you and this information you provided. It would help if you could talk about the mg of each vitamin to start out on as some are very low at say 25 where others are 500. This is the second time I have watched it and will most likely watch it again and again because I gain something new each I watch it! Thank you so very much!!

Wonderful job. Breaking it down.👌🏼
Yes.Thanks for the summary.
In all my years of research and self healing I have never heard of this, or even thought twice about B1. No naturopath, MD, or any other healer has ever mentioned it or put me on it, yet I have most of these symptoms. I started taking B1 last week and am already seeing improvement. The most noticeable thing is peripheral neuropathy almost gone! Hands and feet are so much better! Thank you so much for all your hard work Dr. Berg. Much Love!
How much should we take
@@BronzeandGolden - Sick people need to take big big doses before seeing any +

I have Hashimoto's and low stomach acid. I started taking BenfoMax a few weeks ago, thanks to this video!!❤ My fatigue went away, I sleep better, no more nightmares, less anxiety, better digestion, stronger workouts.The list goes on & on. It's an expensive supplement but worth every penny.😃👍
What brand did you get and where did you buy?
@@reinamacaren-a4132 BenfoMax by Pure Encapsulations on Amazon
Mary Hazelwood: did you take daily ? How much? În the morning or evening?
After nearly 20 years of having anxiety, PTSD, and depression, I've tried countless meds. Eventually, I took a DNA test to see which ones are best for my body. I don't recall what, but something on the test revealed that my body doesn't process vitamin B as efficiently as it should, so the NP I see recommended taking a supplement with all types of vitamin B in it. Wow, game changer. I feel like a different person with much more energy.
You're likely referring to the MTHFR genetic pathway that prevents 40% of people from processing B1, B12 and Folate. Take the methylated forms of these vitamins so that your system can properly utilize them.
Where can I find the test they you tried please?
@@jackpartridge7891 agreed
Agreed! Lifetime of low grade depression with anxiety, and finally a suggestion to take B12 daily, and whoop...dare it is! Relief like I hadn't enjoyed in decades. This video is describing things that are now perking my interest in a possible B1/Thiamine deficiency. Booyah, Dr. Berg!!
@@JJ-gc8du which brand do you take?
Thank you so much for making these videos! God bless you!!! I have been dealing with neuropathy for many years now and also shortness of breath, tiredness and fatigue, cramps, irritability. My husband just went to get some B1 for me and I took it, I’m hopeful now that I will feel better! I can’t thank you enough! ❤

PROBABLY THE BEST VIDEO I'VE EVER SEEN ON UA-cam!!!
👋👋👋
That is quite a testimonial.
I agree 100%!
He onley make good video's
Anxiety was ruining my life! I was on a plane traveling from Tahiti to LA. Nine hours and I could not sit in my chair! I found this video and it saved my life.
very good just started benfotiamine
After watching your video on Sleep Apnea, I looked further into B1.... and started taking it, I had so many minor issues and I felt pretty bad, I am starting to get my energy back, better focus and less sore. Thank you for the lesson
Hi what dosage of B1 do you take?
@MrJumbly it's been 3 months, how are you doing now?
@@georgewagner7787 still good, lost some weight, I also stopped buying as much bread. @jerry Igwe I just take the Costco Brand Super B-complex, probably better sources out there I also take Nutritional yeast and up my intake of home cooked beans. Brown Rice also helps the serotonin helps with sleep too. I still store when I am on my back. but not all the time.
Thank you!
@@mrjumbly2338 you don't do the keto ... Having rice etc wow and you feel good ? I am lost between starting keto or not 😉
Very important info about vitamin B1:deficiency and consequences. Great video!
Personally, this is life-saving for me. Severe nerve damage and tingling in my foot plus edema. Thank you for this timely information.
I had a severe neck injury in 2010 and a neurosurgen told me because my nerves were damaged severely I need to take all of Vitamin B groups and after 10 years my neck injury have improved with a plus side that I have never got flu again and my heart condition where I had one heart valve problem now seems way better..
Leila did it help?
@@Thunderstormworld I have nerve pain due to neck injury as well. I'm going to give this a go! Thanks.
What is the difference between L tyrosine, the other word on the board he talks about while showing the l tyrosine product, and vitamin b1? Or how are they connected?
I can't take B6 because my blood showed wayy over (15x normal) even though I had only been taking a minute amount in my magnesium.

I love your vitamin deficiency videos. I knew that deficiency can cause and/or mimic some diseases, but I didn't know that there were that many and my doctor just passed over a lot!! I am going to request a complete panel! Thank you so much for your videos!
Amazing info-never new about B1 until now and I’m 63 years old!!!!
Hi Diane
Your presentations are always easy for someone with no medical background to understand clearly and make complete sense of. Thank you.
I'm glad I found your video tonight as I have just found other research that your teaching has validated. My husband and I will be starting B1 for neuropathy, fibromyalgia, IBS and a few other issues. Thank you for your teaching. 🥰
I was feeling really depressed near suicidal and been following your videos for over a year working as engineer on yachts it was very difficult to follow a keto, but in off season now I realised I still felt bad even though my weight started to be more regulated and then realised I simply wasnt eating enough fats, i cut out the 100% sugars, 80% carbs but kept feeling unmotivated and depressed, after a quick 3 day water fast and simply adding MORE fats I would say I feel 70% calmer, more focused and a lot more gathered in all, still on this journey going to start taking B1, and nutritional yeast(bio), also lemon balm tea, my sport is road cycling focused on endurance cycling so did a solo 265Km ride in november22' and planning on a solo ride of 300+kilimotres, I train under 120Bpm so between Zone 1 and 2, which is best for endurance, I do focus and make a point of the quality and type of hydration and fluids I consume, and when to consume what type of fluid, so as to get the best sleep and rest and also to ensure my natural blood sodiul levels stay in good shape for my endurance and heart health as I typically cycle atleast 80 to 100kilometres per day.
Thanks for all your videos! You are literally saving lives
I always come across gold whenever I watch your videos.
Oh wow he has other s. ? Been housebound decades.....this helped me and I just discovered this and I was wow so you're telling me he has other ones. ? So many suffer needlessly chronic illnesses. This is amazing...what else does he cover...yup found gold
I'm 71. A couple of years ago my short term memory took a nose dive. My B12 test showed no readable amount. Started taking meds from Dr to treat it and stumbled on Geographic Tongue, which I have as well. I started taking B12 for treatment along with my Dr.s meds. Since that time, I have put 2 and 2 together. My dad died of Alzheimer's and all of his brothers and sisters (11) died of Alzheimers if they lived old enough. Now I'm finding out some of my cousins has come down this the same as me. This week I stumbled into B1 depletion so I have started on Benfotomine. Will get some yeast this week. Thanks for the info.
Please tell the rest of the family please if Dr Berg saves our lives so can we try to saves others too
@@leximohamed9532 I'm telling all my cousins. Talked to one today. Another things I found in my reseach, Turmeric is good for blood sugar. My A1C is down from 9 something to 5.9 just taking Turmeric 1500 mg daily.
My mistake, A1C is down to 5.4
@@kenwaldrop9138 thank you Ken god blessings to you and your family
I am thankful for the reply Ken
Why are you taking Benfotiamine? Is that the form dr Berg recommends? Thank you
I have been following your advice closely for a few years. I am healthier in some ways. But just had a heart attack and the surgeon found a blood clot behind my heart. I am 76 yrs old. I have a heart stint now. It was put in on November 15 2024. I need advice on what to eat to be as healthy as pissible. I help my daughter with her 11 and 7 year old children and until this happened to me always felt healthy for my age. Thank you for all you do
This video has quite possibly helped me find what my doctors have been looking for over the last 4 years.
My life has completely changed since I started taking all your advice Doctor,
I am much healthier not just physically but internally. Thank you 😇
I struggled this summer with high anxiety which I’ve never had, ever and vertigo. Confusion was also scary. And very itchy skin. And hives. Went to the doctor and was given Zyrtec and an anti anxiety med ( allergy pill and the other would take weeks to help me, may give me depression and would wake up the next morning with crazy dilated eyes and a drug hangover/dizziness-yikes ) I decided not to go with all that and suffered through it with very little sleep for almost 2 months, with everything all together. I felt I knew I’d done this to myself from the food I ate. I like carbs, salty and sweet. Only occasional frozen vegetables which I microwaved the nutrients out of due to high heat. I’m not much of a meat eater , but over doing my coffee consumption--- I found this video and it’s opened my eyes ❤️. Dr. Berg here, is the first anyone to tell me about a remedy for exercise Intolerance. I’m not overweight, never have been- but hiking, gym class? Even yoga makes me feel like my heart can’t take it, let alone my body . So here I am, today. I turn a new leaf 🍃
Thank you for taking care of your self DR Berg have the blessings from god to motivates you take care god bless

A thousand THANK YOUs for sharing your great wealth of info so freely💞 May God continue blessing you, & thereby blessing us❣✝️You are a Gift & Blessing from God to us ALL 💝🙏💫🌠
I literally teared up during this! I felt this may be a part of the answer. I’ve tried so much. Thankyou Dr.Berg!
Did it work? What dose did you take and what dose worked best?
Me too
🌸 I take B complex, it has full range & other supplements eg iron, vits that have everything else that I need, calcium complex, cod liver oil tabs & omega 3 6 &9. Have been for years now & it’s reversed so many things. I addition I eat whole foods like fresh vegetables & brown rice. I exercise daily very mildly like yoga & simple cardio for 25mins. I also go for long walks twice a week in nature with friends or by myself somewhere safe. It helped me so much
God bless you 🙏 you will heal through Jesus Christ ✝. Elizabeth, I want to connect with you, do you use Instagram?
I learned more than my own Dr's tell me. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely a brilliant video! I have been taking B1 Benfotiamine now for 9months and it’s been a life saver.
