@@justinatheodora I do fear the vaccine. You should eat healthy, build your immune system. I’ve never took the flue shot. People who took the flu shot are spreaders. I will not take the vaccine who just in maybe 2yrs came up with that takes years to test it. I know of people who have and it affected them worse then the virus. Their not the same. Of course they will not allow this to be in the media. And about deaths. Their instead saying that deaths are from virus. People are not open to the truth. They trust the people who are told to lie because they are controlled.

Thanks so much, Dr. Berg! I learned a lot from your videos and have applied your health advices on myself and shared with my family and friends. Praying for you and your family. You are a great blessing.
I contracted Covid-19 last month and took 18 different supplements and knocked it out in 12 days and had what physicians considered to be mild symptoms even though I was scared out of my wits the entire 12 days until my fever broke. I had low grade fever, lost sense of taste for 4 days, mild cough, and rapid heart rate if I just got up to go to the restroom or take a shower. It was definitely nerve wracking, but I am in very good health for being 55 years of age and I am also in the health industry as a health coach with a background in functional medicine as well. Anyways, the main supplements I took were 60mg to 100mg of ionic zinc per day combined with 500mg of quercetin phytosome. Quercetin acts as a zinc ionophore which transports zinc into the cell. Vitamin D3/K2 is also very important. Check your levels and make sure they are above 30ng/mL because people with levels below this tend to have a difficult time with Covid and studies show that all the people with levels below 10ng/mL had one thing in common which was death. I will list my protocol if anyone is interested. I believe it helped me recover without this virus taking over my lungs and causing a cytokine storm.
I’m interested. Thnx. I’m taking zinc and just started Quercetin to hopefully prevent covid. I also take. It D3, K2, oil of oregano, black elderberry, selenium, and a few others. Basically, a supplement pharmacy. Lol. Thnx
@@lauriehall4025 I was doing everything I knew to prevent contracting the virus, but yet I still got it. I was even using an infrared sauna for 20 minutes 4-5 days per week because my theory was if I was ever exposed to the virus that the heat from the infrared sauna would kill the virus before it completed the incubation phase. Anyways, I can now throw that theory out the window. Lol.... However, everything that I was doing did help my body fight the virus so it wasn't all done in vain. Here are the supplements I took during my 12 day fight with the virus. I took most of the supplements daily for months even before I contracted the virus, but in lower dosages. I am also very fit with minimal body fat so this played a role as well since latest studies are showing that the virus feeds on lipids which is probably why obese people have a difficult time with the virus. Not to mention that a lot of obese people will have some kind of underlying medical issue. 1. 10,000 to 20,000IU vitamin D3/K2 (KForce) daily - improves innate immune response, prevents viral replication by transporting zinc into the cell, and helps keep the adaptive immune system from overreacting as to cause a cytokine storm. This is a very important supplement to take. I now get 20 minutes of sun daily when the sun is out because I live in Houston, Texas and sun does so much good for the body as long as you don't BURN. 2. 10,000IU vitamin A palmitate - improves innate immune response 3. 2g omega 3 nordic naturals - helps with inflammation and much more. 4. 12mg astaxanthin - controls oxidative stress in fat soluble cells. 5.

High dose pro-biotic containing S-Boulardii - to increase immunity in the gut. 19. Lots of prayer! I also took selenium and milk thistle to help my liver clear the virus, but I didn't start these two until after symptoms subsided. I did take before I contracted the virus, but stopped after contracting. Selenium can actually detox the liver and I didn't want to put more strain on my body while I had the virus. It probably wouldn't hurt and selenium is also good for the immune system and with inflammation, but I was already taking a lot as you can see. You also want to eliminate sugar or anything that contains sugar since sugar stuns the innate immune response for up to 6 hours after ingestion. Hope this helps!
@Taiwo Omotosho yes when I can find it. Look for other brands if you can’t find Sambucol. I haven’t use olive leaf. I use oil of oregano along with many other supplements. God bless you.
@Chris Zorb Yes, but I was already doing NAC which works to boost glutathione. Also, as I mentioned in a previous comment, I didn't want to task my liver any more than necessary and selenium can cause the liver to detox which could make things worse. Everything worked out perfectly and here we are several months later and I have experienced no lasting negative effects from the virus. I now included a weekly IV drip consisting of 15g of vitamin C mixed with 2grams of magnesium in one 500ml bag of sodium chloride solution. I also do another 500ml bag that contains a full B-complex, and lastly 2 grams of glutathione which is pushed through a syringe. I started slow with the glutathione and worked up to 2 grams to prevent any significant detox reactions. After contracting any virus, your toxicity levels significantly increase so this is a very important protocol that most people know nothing about. Once per week is good for 6 weeks or so and then once per month should be fine for maintenance. I still use the infrared sauna up to 5 days per week because any time you decrease toxicity, you naturally increase your glutathione status. Not only that, but it is great for improving your adaptive immune system. There are also studies showing that using an infrared sauna 5 days per week for 20 minutes can decrease cardiovascular disease by up to 50% and decrease ALL cause mortality by up to 40%! That's huge!

I feel so much better when I listen to Dr Berg. I have found all his videos a reliable, trustworthy source of information not found elsewhere. Thank you.
Thank you Dr Berg for the free classes about the immune system. I am auto-immune with Ulcerative Colitis and I'm hoping the course will be as clear and straightforward as your other videos. You have been so helpful for my sister and I. We say thank you sir from Ontario, Canada!
Wish he was my doctor to help with my health issues! He's phenomenal & very concise with his information! No doctor gives you this kind of nutritional information in your visits.
Unfortunately most doctors don’t learn about nutrition in school. I’m guessing Dr. Berg took it upon himself to learn more about health and nutrition outside of his own medical training. I agree he is good at explaining and simplifying how to take care of ourselves. I’ve learned more from watching his UA-cam videos than I ever learned from any medical professionals.
Eric, I've been following a number of your videos, and something I have been picking up on, that I never thought about until now, is that there seems to be a balancing act between pairs of elements in the human body. You've mentioned the Magnesium/Calcium pair, and the Copper/Zinc pair. So I'm wondering if you have done a video yet that lists and explains all the pair relationships? I think it could be enormously helpful to understand this concept and how to balance them all properly. Thanks.
One of The most trusted person on UA-cam one in a million thanks for sharing your knowledge with us and being so genuine to us. May God continue to bless you
As someone with copd and Addisons disease i can honestly say that Dr Bergs advice is by far the best. boosting your immune system is the best protection from the viruses and illnesses that we deal with. I have taken his advice and defo feel alot better im my body and my mind. A big thankyou to Dr Berg...

Thank you Dr Berg for this much needed valuable information. I was diagnosed with “something like rheumatoid arthritis” by rheumatologist or “something like it” never took the medication they prescribed I was afraid of the side effects. Have suffered with much inflammation until recently when I came across Dr Berg’s videos and taking zinc and Vit D3 40k iu, this is making a difference for me. Thank God and Dr Berg for giving him the wisdom and courage to post all this info, May God richly bless him and his famiky 🙏💕
Good choice 👍🏼 I have also RA systems but I don’t take those prescription med can damage my liver. I started to take D3 and fish oil together. And didn’t know about k2 now I am taking k2. Drinking celery and lemon spinach juice everyday and I add one gold kiwi on my diet. Food is the key like Dr. Berg said. 😊
I love this channel. I unsubscribed some months ago because of too many videos, it was overwhelming . But now I’m back for some knowledge. I missed you take me back baby 🤣
I have lupus, which came w constant mouth sores until I started taking zinc (for acne). I hadn't even noticed that the mouth sores were gone until I stopped (ran out of) zinc and as soon as I did, the mouth sores were immediately back, Idk why it works, but this zinc/mouth sores connection is absolutely testable & repeatable. :)
Yes!! I only took 50mg and yesterday I had the worst stomach cramps all day long! It stayed during the night and is finally gone this morning! Please please don’t overdue Zinc!
Copper is essential in the synthesis of the DAO enzyme - which is important for breaking down histamines - so low copper may cause histamine intolerance symptoms.
Respect!!💕 Thank you Dr. Berg for your videos and your imput in these times of unsurity. You truly care about the content and helping others. GOD bless you.
Dr. Berg, you are a wonderful person as well as a great doctor. You are truly passionate about good health and I wanted to let you know that I, for one, appreciate it!
I'm disabled following accidents, spine surgeries, years of degeneration. About a year ago, I started falling a lot, couldn't balance at all, was shaking constantly, constant headaches, anxiety got worse, my memory was going to hell. Went to a neurologist, he immediately started suspecting Wilson's disease. My brain MRI came back confirming perm damage to my basal ganglia, resp for smooth voluntary movement, then they proved I had KF Rings in my eyes, very elevated free copper in my blood and urine. I couldn't afford chelator drugs, I began a regimen of 50mg of Pharm grade Zinc endorse by the Wilson disease foundation, Gluzin (Zinc Gluconate) 3x/day with food, my post sleeve stomach didn't like it, I had to go onto Omeprazole and sucralfate but 6 mos after starting my 24hr urine copper test showed I was on the low end of the spectrum for copper. So I had successfully decoppered myself without the paradoxical worsening that occurs in 80% of patients with neuro/psych symptoms that take d-pencilliamine and about 50% that take trientine. Plus I never get sick. Zinc FTW. Just wish I had caught this before the brain damage. Didn't help the spine pain, did help the muscle pain though...
When it comes to the trace minerals we would love to see a video on the proper amount that needs to be taken per day on average and possibly the correct verbiage of getting some of these tested by our doctor for communicating it with him or her.
So this makes me wonder, I'm in healthcare and have worked with patients straight through the pandemic since it began in 2020. I began taking the ingredients in the Zelenko Protocol (Vit D, Vit C, Zinc and a zinc ionophore) and I continue taking this even today. Thankfully I've remained healthy and haven't needed to take off even one day of work! Per day: Vit C 1000mg, Vit D 10k units, Zinc 100mg, Quercetin - and I do take Copper, Mg, B Complex, B1 and your electrolyte powder. I feel great (also lost 49# doing Keto/IF, so that helped!). Now I'm in a quandry - continue? Lower the amts? Stop?? As of right now, I'll continue unless I hear otherwise! Thank you for all of your hard work Dr Berg!!
Tried different Zinc supplements and I felt terrible headaches and bone pain. Recently I decided to add GNC zinc picolinate with copper and I feel great. No headaches or whatever. I take it with my vitamin d3 and vitamin c. Game changer! 🙏 Thank you Dr Berg!
I've been taking 20 000 units of Vitamin D, 3 to 4 ,000 mgs of Vitamin C ,500mg of Quercetin, 100mg of Zinc, 500mg twice daily of Magnesium, 200 mgs of Selenium, also 800 units of vitamin E ,2 Grapeseed capsules ,I haven't been sick in many years
I found kale juice to be my savior when i was sufferring from chronic chest pain during an infection. Chest pain for 5 days went away in 5 minutes after kale juice.
I found Dr. Berg around the same time as the plandemic began, and started taking Zinc and D3 as well as many other supplements. I've also been spreading the word to anyone smart enough to listen. I really want to take Dr. Bergs course but I need to make sure that the timing is right. Spinal fusion in November so I will be laid up for quite some time... sounds like the perfect time!!
Always funny to see people use the word PLANdemic as if it wasn't 100 times more likely and plausible that the pandemic is a result of incompetence and mismanagement by institutions, governments and health care systems around the world as well as the exploitation and disregard of ecosystems. It's an overestimation of how competent and organised any group of humans can be really. Either way we need to look out for our own health and zinc and vitamin D are great for that
1. What supplement contains copper, zinc and all the trace minerals? 2. Which specific supplement(s) to take if you want copper zinc and all the trace minerals? 3. What type of zinc is Dr. Berg referring to? I love his videos but I wish he was way more specific on the regimen.
I took 100mg today , feel a bit weird … Might be affecting copper Or might be too much 60mg felt better than 100mg , but really good to know the thresholds
@@Alexander-Bunyip I am wondering the same thing. You see, people with partial knowledge can be dangerous: will cause harm to himself or other. How i wish Dr.Berg will give a "complete" info..
@@Alexander-Bunyip yes it is. I developed not just a copper deficiency.. but an iron one because zinc competes with both and wins in the digestive system.. im off zinc for now. definitely wouldnt take 100.. or 200 ever.. I was taking 50, plus a multi that had 10 i think and that messed me up. Keep in mind, I took it daily for years
@@Drberg I have chronic gastritis and erosion of the lining of the stomach mucus and visible reflux due to Helicobacter pylori for ten painful years and now the propolis has been eradicated and now I want a treatment for a visible reflux and erosion of the stomach membrane and chronic gastritis And how many times and I want a definitive treatment for stomach problems ..
I just determined that I have been taking 58mg of zinc for months with only 1-2mg of copper. I just found out I am iron deficient. Zinc blocks iron absorbtion and iron needs copper to get it where it needs to go for energy. I have been so tired for months with high pulse rate and trouble sleeping.
Thank you for all your information! I've decided that my Zinc will come naturally from Nutritional Yeast, Kelp Powder and the (cruciferous) vegetables from my garden. I dump 100 lbs of volcanic rock dust into my soil every fall to be used up by the garden plants that following spring. Wish I could put together my families success story but it's too dang long and starting to turn into a novel LOL
Dr Berg...I am LOVIN' your Immune Course. It is soooo detailed and, as always, you explain it so well. The small quiz after each video helps me to know Im getting it. Sharing to friends & family. What a gift! Thank you! 👍❤
Hello Dr. Berg. good to find you on UA-cam. I am impressed by all the valuable information you have been providing on Facebook and have shared it with my contacts. I am very much interested to learn more about the subject of immunity. Thank you for all you do.
Cool. I really love the advice here. I began wondering this myself of what is too much zinc, since in other videos you would mention zinc being needed for certain health benefits. You helped broaden my understanding of the topic in my head. Thanks and keep up your great work
Dr. Berg thank you so much I appreciate you immensely! ❤ UA-cam will eventually try to push you out. But I'm still following you whenever you go. I want to hear it ALL, about vaccines, radiofrequencies, and all those things UA-cam, CDC, WHO, etc. are trying to censor.
Dr Berg, I read a lot about zinc supplementation, but it raises one major question! How long is the abstinence period within a zinc supplementation cycle, because most doctors say you should take higher dosages of zinc for max of 6 months. So what after that? Do I don't take any zinc anymore at all during this time? And how long should I wait until I do another 6 months supplementation? Do I even need a second supplementation? It seems to me that no study out there tested zinc supplementation and its effects for a longer period of time than 6 months. Also there is so many different statements on dosage. In the US the max recommended daily dose is 11g. In Europe it is 25g. When I watched another doctor (on UA-cam), he stated that people with a MILD deficiency get treated with 2-3 mg per kg bodyweight. So I weigh 140 lbs which is about 70 kg, that would mean that I needed to take 140-210 mg per day to compensate for the deficiency if I had one? This is extremely confusing. I run into the same issues with practically EVERY supplement I try to get information on. Several doctors I visited so far also seemed as if they are not very knowledgeable in that regard. Some say "only take supplements you have a tested deficiency" - which makes sense to me. Others, like you say "take all mineral supplements at once, so you're covered" - which also makes sense to me but it is contradicting the other statement. So what is correct now?
So true. One channel says it's bad, another says it's good with almost any supplement. I split a 50mg table in threes. 16.6mg (can't find smaller tablets) and take 2mg of copper twice a week. Been doing this for awhile with no I'll effects. Definitely cleared up the acne.
I took zinc when I was pregnant and I can assure you that my 10 pound, 4 ounce daughter caused me not one stretch mark! But I did take a few more than necessary at times and she came out with a large hairy birthmark on her forearm that was removed through a quick surgery when she was 4.
there's a big difference between zinc and elemental zinc... the actual amount of the zinc element in a certain type of zinc,( ie Zinc Glycinate which contains about 23 mg of elemental zinc in 100 mg of zinc glycinate). This wasn't mentioned in the above video and also is almost never mentioned by anyone. If you're saying something is "too much" or "too little" it's helpful to be specific about stuff like this IMHO. Otherwise, there is a lot of room for misinformation or misunderstanding.
My modest gratitude cannot thank you enough for the amount of knowledge and nutritional helps videos, you are providing for free. Keep it going and be blessed. You are so different and I am grateful. Many thanks 😊Dr Eric Berg.
I think every time I take zinc(50mg daily) my eczema flares up. Try it to people with on & off eczema. If it triggers, then they should stop taking zinc from supplements. However, l-optizinc doesn't triggers my eczema but it always made me sleepy.
I love you Dr. Berg! Your heart is so big. I am an example that health is earned and your knowledge of the body along with holistic remedies are priceless. Thank you! I've been following you for many years. Have you written a book? Although, Putting it on youtube is brilliant for all to learn.
Dr., You should make a video talking about copper. I got myself 4mg of cooper to add to the minerals I have been taking and I sort of felt some metallic taste in my throat, heart beating (not intensely), some sweat in my hands plus fatigue. I once took at night and I woke up sobbing, then I just stopped it. Please, enlight us about copper!
As long as you don't develop an allergy. I took the Dr.'s advice and took 200mg a day and got a terrible rash on my feet and legs. My left ankle swelled to twice the normal size. Consult a real doctor before getting on a supplement regime.

I took zinc, d and C throughout all of covid and I think it helped me a lot.
Quercetin is good as well
What doses?
I still do

Wish he was my doctor to help with my health issues! He's phenomenal & very concise with his information!
No doctor gives you this kind of nutritional information in your visits.
Unfortunately most doctors don’t learn about nutrition in school. I’m guessing Dr. Berg took it upon himself to learn more about health and nutrition outside of his own medical training. I agree he is good at explaining and simplifying how to take care of ourselves. I’ve learned more from watching his UA-cam videos than I ever learned from any medical professionals.
Not 'safe'...but 'smart'...
Surely out of context, but man I love it.
Thank you doctor...You're a rock
Eric, I've been following a number of your videos, and something I have been picking up on, that I never thought about until now, is that there seems to be a balancing act between pairs of elements in the human body. You've mentioned the Magnesium/Calcium pair, and the Copper/Zinc pair. So I'm wondering if you have done a video yet that lists and explains all the pair relationships? I think it could be enormously helpful to understand this concept and how to balance them all properly. Thanks.
Great question I'd also like answer to!!
@@mariae3700 Excellent catch. Would love to see a video on that.
This gentleman is a genius.
One of The most trusted person on UA-cam one in a million thanks for sharing your knowledge with us and being so genuine to us. May God continue to bless you
I would have known a lot less crucial things without Dr. Berg. He is a lifesaver.
As someone with copd and Addisons disease i can honestly say that Dr Bergs advice is by far the best. boosting your immune system is the best protection from the viruses and illnesses that we deal with. I have taken his advice and defo feel alot better im my body and my mind. A big thankyou to Dr Berg...
I hope you've taken proper medical advice and had a vaccine.

Thank you Dr Berg for this much needed valuable information. I was diagnosed with “something like rheumatoid arthritis” by rheumatologist or “something like it” never took the medication they prescribed I was afraid of the side effects. Have suffered with much inflammation until recently when I came across Dr Berg’s videos and taking zinc and Vit D3 40k iu, this is making a difference for me. Thank God and Dr Berg for giving him the wisdom and courage to post all this info, May God richly bless him and his famiky 🙏💕
Good choice 👍🏼 I have also RA systems but I don’t take those prescription med can damage my liver.
I started to take D3 and fish oil together. And didn’t know about k2 now I am taking k2. Drinking celery and lemon spinach juice everyday and I add one gold kiwi on my diet. Food is the key like Dr. Berg said. 😊
Same here. They call it "Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disease." I added intermittent fasting and water fasting also.
I am. I tell everyone to strengthen your immune system. Thank you for talking about this.

You're the best at delivering real empowering nutritional knowledge! Keep it going! Thank you!!!
I've often said anyone going through medical school would do themselves a great service by watching ( and archiving ) all of Dr. Bergs videos.
I love this channel. I unsubscribed some months ago because of too many videos, it was overwhelming . But now I’m back for some knowledge. I missed you take me back baby 🤣
Welcome back! Hope that you will be well!

REALLY REALLY appreciate your accurate, concise info on nutritional health.
Very glad to be of help.
In regards to “Be Safe!” I HATE HEARING IT TOO OMG!! Maybe petty of me but I’m glad to know Dr Berg hates it too wow
Yes staying safe requires persistence and effort.

Goes in one ear and out the other. You are never more cautious after you leave.
I have lupus, which came w constant mouth sores until I started taking zinc (for acne). I hadn't even noticed that the mouth sores were gone until I stopped (ran out of) zinc and as soon as I did, the mouth sores were immediately back, Idk why it works, but this zinc/mouth sores connection is absolutely testable & repeatable. :)
4:52 - "We want this to go viral *pause with a smile* in a healthy way"...that was awesome!!
Yes!! I only took 50mg and yesterday I had the worst stomach cramps all day long! It stayed during the night and is finally gone this morning! Please please don’t overdue Zinc!
Make sure to eat before taking zinc - Never take it on an empty stomach.
Agreed. I usually take 30 mg, upped my dosage to 60 mg and ended up in the hospital, never again. I continue to take 30 mg daily with zero issues.
Making more sense here than all the fear porn. Thank you.
talking about porn, any site recommendations?
@@Johnny-hq3cd Xvideos, I'm trying to quit though.
Copper is essential in the synthesis of the DAO enzyme - which is important for breaking down histamines - so low copper may cause histamine intolerance symptoms.
Omg, this explains why I was having allergies and never did...
I just looked into it and it seems that low zinc is associated with histamines
hey quick question, I take 22mg of zinc a day do I have to take copper with it or is that only if u take super high does
Being copper toxic/copper overload causes histamine intolerance as well.
Sorry for being dumb. So too much copper causes allergies to flare up? And zinc can help with reducing the copper and lessening the allergies?
Dr. Berg, you just articulated EXACTLY what I have been preaching for two years!! We have to build up our IMMUNE SYSTEMS!!! Thanks for this!!!
Great confirmation. In 2019 I learned how to make my own Kombucha, Sauerkraut, pickled veggies

Dr. Berg, you are a wonderful person as well as a great doctor. You are truly passionate about good health and I wanted to let you know that I, for one, appreciate it!
I'm disabled following accidents, spine surgeries, years of degeneration. About a year ago, I started falling a lot, couldn't balance at all, was shaking constantly, constant headaches, anxiety got worse, my memory was going to hell. Went to a neurologist, he immediately started suspecting Wilson's disease. My brain MRI came back confirming perm damage to my basal ganglia, resp for smooth voluntary movement, then they proved I had KF Rings in my eyes, very elevated free copper in my blood and urine. I couldn't afford chelator drugs, I began a regimen of 50mg of Pharm grade Zinc endorse by the Wilson disease foundation, Gluzin (Zinc Gluconate) 3x/day with food, my post sleeve stomach didn't like it, I had to go onto Omeprazole and sucralfate but 6 mos after starting my 24hr urine copper test showed I was on the low end of the spectrum for copper. So I had successfully decoppered myself without the paradoxical worsening that occurs in 80% of patients with neuro/psych symptoms that take d-pencilliamine and about 50% that take trientine. Plus I never get sick. Zinc FTW. Just wish I had caught this before the brain damage. Didn't help the spine pain, did help the muscle pain though...

When it comes to the trace minerals we would love to see a video on the proper amount that needs to be taken per day on average and possibly the correct verbiage of getting some of these tested by our doctor for communicating it with him or her.
Thank you and God Bless as always I share most of your videos I learned so much from you thank you all these years!
This dr is not only made of miracles he’s very kind and caring. Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge…
The thing I find most anoying these days is this "Keep safe" at the end of each meeting/conversation that became the new normal. Thank you Dr Berg
"Share this information, I want it to go.. viral 😏"
One consolation is that the with a lot of zinc the iron in your hemoglobin won't rust.
Well that’s something to think about….
I’m watching this 3 years later. Are you on Rumble Dr. Berg?
So this makes me wonder, I'm in healthcare and have worked with patients straight through the pandemic since it began in 2020. I began taking the ingredients in the Zelenko Protocol (Vit D, Vit C, Zinc and a zinc ionophore) and I continue taking this even today. Thankfully I've remained healthy and haven't needed to take off even one day of work! Per day: Vit C 1000mg, Vit D 10k units, Zinc 100mg, Quercetin - and I do take Copper, Mg, B Complex, B1 and your electrolyte powder. I feel great (also lost 49# doing Keto/IF, so that helped!). Now I'm in a quandry - continue? Lower the amts? Stop?? As of right now, I'll continue unless I hear otherwise! Thank you for all of your hard work Dr Berg!!
Tried different Zinc supplements and I felt terrible headaches and bone pain. Recently I decided to add GNC zinc picolinate with copper and I feel great. No headaches or whatever. I take it with my vitamin d3 and vitamin c. Game changer! 🙏 Thank you Dr Berg!
thank you so-so much
I've been taking 20 000 units of Vitamin D, 3 to 4 ,000 mgs of Vitamin C ,500mg of Quercetin, 100mg of Zinc, 500mg twice daily of Magnesium, 200 mgs of Selenium, also 800 units of vitamin E ,2 Grapeseed capsules ,I haven't been sick in many years
I found kale juice to be my savior when i was sufferring from chronic chest pain during an infection. Chest pain for 5 days went away in 5 minutes after kale juice.
I really appreciate this man. Hes my favorite doctor and hes not even MY doctor 😂
Thanks sooo much Dr Berg been waiting for this have a great day ❤️❤️❤️
I found Dr. Berg around the same time as the plandemic began, and started taking Zinc and D3 as well as many other supplements. I've also been spreading the word to anyone smart enough to listen. I really want to take Dr. Bergs course but I need to make sure that the timing is right. Spinal fusion in November so I will be laid up for quite some time... sounds like the perfect time!!
Always funny to see people use the word PLANdemic as if it wasn't 100 times more likely and plausible that the pandemic is a result of incompetence and mismanagement by institutions, governments and health care systems around the world as well as the exploitation and disregard of ecosystems. It's an overestimation of how competent and organised any group of humans can be really. Either way we need to look out for our own health and zinc and vitamin D are great for that
1. What supplement contains copper, zinc and all the trace minerals?
2. Which specific supplement(s) to take if you want copper zinc and all the trace minerals?
3. What type of zinc is Dr. Berg referring to?
I love his videos but I wish he was way more specific on the regimen.
Exactly!
I took 100mg today , feel a bit weird …
Might be affecting copper
Or might be too much 60mg felt better than 100mg , but really good to know the thresholds
Thank you Dr Berg for all the effort you and your team do to give us this valuable information...
Thank you for your work and dedication Dr. Berg ❤️
I'm happy to help. Thanks for watching!
@@Drberg Doc, is the ratio of Cu:Zn the important thing here? I'd be wary of taking extra Cu...
@@Alexander-Bunyip I am wondering the same thing. You see, people with partial knowledge can be dangerous: will cause harm to himself or other.
How i wish Dr.Berg will give a "complete" info..
@@Alexander-Bunyip yes it is. I developed not just a copper deficiency.. but an iron one because zinc competes with both and wins in the digestive system.. im off zinc for now. definitely wouldnt take 100.. or 200 ever.. I was taking 50, plus a multi that had 10 i think and that messed me up. Keep in mind, I took it daily for years
@@Drberg
I have chronic gastritis and erosion of the lining of the stomach mucus and visible reflux due to Helicobacter pylori for ten painful years and now the propolis has been eradicated and now I want a treatment for a visible reflux and erosion of the stomach membrane and chronic gastritis And how many times and I want a definitive treatment for stomach problems ..
I just determined that I have been taking 58mg of zinc for months with only 1-2mg of copper. I just found out I am iron deficient. Zinc blocks iron absorbtion and iron needs copper to get it where it needs to go for energy. I have been so tired for months with high pulse rate and trouble sleeping.
FEAR = False Evidence Appearing Real. Great doc! Thanks!
I like this…….
Thank you for all your information! I've decided that my Zinc will come naturally from Nutritional Yeast, Kelp Powder and the (cruciferous) vegetables from my garden.

Wonderful!
Is there a way to access it other than through FB? I don't use it.
Hello Dr. Berg. good to find you on UA-cam. I am impressed by all the valuable information you have been providing on Facebook and have shared it with my contacts. I am very much interested to learn more about the subject of immunity. Thank you for all you do.
Love how you evaded UA-cam's Covid Police.
Cool. I really love the advice here. I began wondering this myself of what is too much zinc, since in other videos you would mention zinc being needed for certain health benefits.
You helped broaden my understanding of the topic in my head.
Thanks and keep up your great work
Dear Dr. Berg. We value you and your videos with great informations. We thank you for what you are doing.
You're a good person Dr.Berg, thank you!
How did I miss this A YEAR AGO?!?!?
Of course.. a Treasure..how can i get that course or book?
Dr. Berg thank you so much I appreciate you immensely! ❤ UA-cam will eventually try to push you out. But I'm still following you whenever you go. I want to hear it ALL, about vaccines, radiofrequencies, and all those things UA-cam, CDC, WHO, etc. are trying to censor.
I'm panicking about that already :(
Copper: What are you zincing about?
Zinc: Just our relationship
😳 🤔
how much copper should I take, I take 30mgs of zinc
I've always said "Be safe" meaning, "don't step in front of a bus" or "don't forget to throw the grenade after you pull the pin" safe.
Dr Berg,
I read a lot about zinc supplementation, but it raises one major question! How long is the abstinence period within a zinc supplementation cycle, because most doctors say you should take higher dosages of zinc for max of 6 months. So what after that? Do I don't take any zinc anymore at all during this time? And how long should I wait until I do another 6 months supplementation? Do I even need a second supplementation? It seems to me that no study out there tested zinc supplementation and its effects for a longer period of time than 6 months.
Also there is so many different statements on dosage. In the US the max recommended daily dose is 11g. In Europe it is 25g. When I watched another doctor (on UA-cam), he stated that people with a MILD deficiency get treated with 2-3 mg per kg bodyweight. So I weigh 140 lbs which is about 70 kg, that would mean that I needed to take 140-210 mg per day to compensate for the deficiency if I had one? This is extremely confusing. I run into the same issues with practically EVERY supplement I try to get information on. Several doctors I visited so far also seemed as if they are not very knowledgeable in that regard.
Some say "only take supplements you have a tested deficiency" - which makes sense to me. Others, like you say "take all mineral supplements at once, so you're covered" - which also makes sense to me but it is contradicting the other statement.
So what is correct now?
So true. One channel says it's bad, another says it's good with almost any supplement.
I split a 50mg table in threes. 16.6mg (can't find smaller tablets) and take 2mg of copper twice a week. Been doing this for awhile with no I'll effects. Definitely cleared up the acne.
I took zinc when I was pregnant and I can assure you that my 10 pound, 4 ounce daughter caused me not one stretch mark! But I did take a few more than necessary at times and she came out with a large hairy birthmark on her forearm that was removed through a quick surgery when she was 4.
My mom took 500mg copper twice a day. Look at my face!
there's a big difference between zinc and elemental zinc... the actual amount of the zinc element in a certain type of zinc,( ie Zinc Glycinate which contains about 23 mg of elemental zinc in 100 mg of zinc glycinate). This wasn't mentioned in the above video and also is almost never mentioned by anyone. If you're saying something is "too much" or "too little" it's helpful to be specific about stuff like this IMHO. Otherwise, there is a lot of room for misinformation or misunderstanding.
When people say stay safe, I say LIVE LIFE
I know this video is old but this Doc is a Great Teacher.
My modest gratitude cannot thank you enough for the amount of knowledge and nutritional helps videos, you are providing for free. Keep it going and be blessed. You are so different and I am grateful. Many thanks 😊Dr Eric Berg.
I think every time I take zinc(50mg daily) my eczema flares up. Try it to people with on & off eczema. If it triggers, then they should stop taking zinc from supplements. However, l-optizinc doesn't triggers my eczema but it always made me sleepy.
I think L-Arginine may have negatively affected my skin.
how are we supposed to know what ldl and hdl is? how about you telling us?
Google it?
Thank you for taking the time to educate those that seek your knowledge.
Thank you for all you do, Dr. Berg!
You never mentioned how much copper to take in order to offset this imbalance?
Take Trace Minerals and you will have it all covered.
1mg copper for every 5mg Zinc at high end (favourable)...and 2mg Copper for 15mg Zinc at low end.

Dr., You should make a video talking about copper. I got myself 4mg of cooper to add to the minerals I have been taking and I sort of felt some metallic taste in my throat, heart beating (not intensely), some sweat in my hands plus fatigue. I once took at night and I woke up sobbing, then I just stopped it. Please, enlight us about copper!
