my french grand ma ate everyday , twice a day : a salad , to begin.the meal with garlic. Salad from the garden full of vitamines and trace of soil and bacteria who surrely help the bacteria in the gut to make vit K2. Walking everiday to the farm to have fresh eggs fresh row mil and cheese made with row milk....so walking in.the sun increased her vit D and good bacteria with cheese maid wirh row milk. After sala she ate always cooked vegetables , little peace of meat , 1 little potato , 1 little piece of meat with one little , very little peace of bread. Lived until 102 , alone at home with no deasese and no medecine
your gma sounds exactly like my great-grandmother living out life...104yrs old death due to old age ZERO disease...she tried to teach her 5 generations to do the same 💞but we were stubborn lol...today we are trying to grasp it 😀
I want to share that my mum had fibrosis in the lungs and after 2 years of using 400 mg of vitamin e.. it literally disappeared.. and that's thanks to your videos Dr berg... I really want everyone to know that and hopefully become better
- vitamin e - tocotrienols - coQ10 - niacin - flush variety - potassium - b vitamins - vitamin D3 - electromagnetic waves especially during sleep - don't sleep next to electrical wiring. - balance out sodium to potassium levels.
I don’t want to scare anyone, but this is my story: back in December I was watching TV late at night and I noticed a strange blurriness in my right eye. On a hunch I took my blood pressure - it was 90/40. I had always had a blood pressure of 120/80, or thereabouts. I immediately went to my Cardiologist at the time and he wrote it off as: “Oh, you’ve lost 150lbs from Keto, it must be the weight loss.” I sensed something was much more wrong with me. I got a 2nd opinion from another Cardiologist and she said: “Your prior Cardiologist didn’t hear this distinct murmur?” I said: “No, he never mentioned it.” My new Cardiologist - who goes on to save my life - orders echocardiogram, T2-MRI for iron in the Heart because I have Hemochromatosis, a CT-Scan, then ultimately a heart catheterization and a Esophageal Echocardiogram. These tests showed that the murmur was being caused by a badly regurgitating Aortic Valve. I underwent open heart surgery on April 8th to replace my bad valve with a bio prosthetic Bovine Valve. I also had an AtriClip installed on the left atrium appendage to prevent blood clots from AFIB. I’m 10 weeks post-surgery now and my BP and heart rhythm are normal. My heart rhythm was not normal for the first 6 weeks - I would get AFIB, SVT’s, & PVC’s. It was very rough going at first. But, I’ve stuck to the Healthy Ketogenic diet that Dr. Berg advocates and my surgeon and Cardiologist are all amazed at my progress. Heck - I was driving a car at 3 weeks post-surgery. At 10 weeks out now I’m going to the supermarket and walking the dog - and she’s strong - AmStaff/Pitbull type dog. I’m not at the point of cutting the lawn yet, but I’m nearing the point where I want to perform light workouts with dumbbells. I already perform Yoga stretches with special precautions to my sternum because I had a traditional sternotomy. So, just beware what your Cardiologist says, and get 2nd opinions - it may just save your life.
@Provoked Brittany I hope so. Also - In regards to my Hemochromatosis - get your Ferritin checked if you’re of Northern European heritage. My Ferritin was 4580 four years ago when I started experiencing night sweats & leg cramps. After many phlebotomies my Ferritin is now around 50. Normal is 0-50. But, the iron damaged my liver with Fibrosis. My liver is regenerating, but it’s been a long road back.
My heart murmur - which I had since childhood - went away after taking calcium/magnesium supplements. Had been told by doctors that I would have it all my life, but, not to worry, as it wasn't gonna prevent me from any physical activity. I was in my 50's before I learned it could be from a mineral deficiency!
I had a lot of arritmia For many years I went to cardiologist to check February 2021 he said there was nothing wrong with my heart ❤️ the irregular heart beat was coming from somewhere else. So when I started the interment fasting with keto February this year 2022 among many other benefits I experience, my energy, my gum, headaches in the morning, and so on… my heartbeat is just perfect 👍 I think is something related to liver and /or I really have to stay away from carbohydrates.
I needed a cardiologist several times from an early age for arrhythmias and no one ever told me about these heart problems. Thank you very much Dr. Berg
I’ve been going to cardiologists for almost 10 years with complains and after doing all basic tests they would say there is nothing wrong with your heart. And I lived a happy life, until this time after usual “nothing wrong with your heart” I insisted on doing angiogram. Please note, I live in US, I had complains for past 10 years and no cardiologist ever mentioned a calcium score test or angiogram to me!!!! I myself told the last cardiologist that I need angiogram. He agreed and to our shock it turned out I have 50% blockage. I am still in a state of shock, depressed, angry. I am that person who doesn’t skip doctor’s visits. How on Earth the “best” doctors in the world let me go untreated for 10 years! My life turned upside down. The fear of death became so overwhelming I can’t function. Why no one offered angiogram few years ago when the plaque could still be on 10, 20% and I would take measures earlier. Anyway, dr. Berg and others are the ones at this point who help them understand what life and dietary changes need to be gone to help the situation. Thank you for all your wonderful videos!
I think that your videos would be great as a teaching aid for a class or even a club (for Middle school to high school students) Dr. Berg you are a very good teacher, and I appreciate all the time you take to share with the rest of us. I often tell my grandsons about what is in their food that God has created for our blessings... And you know they are really interested and retain what I share with them but that is much to do with your passion to share with all of us.. So thank you. You have given me a desire to know more. Blessings to you.
@@jamesunderdal8976 my parents FORCED me to get the covid vaccine and I've been having weird heart problems for the past few months I never had before :( I used to love doing cardio, now It's so difficult. I'm 15, and I don't wanna say it was the vaccine but idk what else it could be. Hopefully what this man suggests helps.
@@willjones3673 how can it be stupid when there's literally scientific studies that show significant proof that the job can cause myocarditis and tachycardia which are serious heart problems completely uncommon for the age group it affects.
Thanks, I’ve learned another thing about me from your videos. I have had lower then normal blood pressure most my life and I was told not to worry about it. I noticed a couple of months after altering my diet and also adding sea salt amongst vitamins and minerals my blood pressure has increased and still in the healthy range.
I'm glad you mentioned the danger of high impact exercise on the heart that can lead to arrhythmias because I remember clearly being in a HIGH Impact aerobics class when suddenly I became terribly out of breath, and just had this feeling of impending doom, I stopped the class and went to the rest room to catch my breath and try to figure out what was going on, I had developed Cardiac Arrhythmias from taking those high impact classes at least 4 days/wk.....
Electrolyte loss, it happens to me. My job equals about 8hrs of cardio a day. If I'm not on top of it I end up in the er. Heart beating out of chest feeling faint, impending doom.
Also non athletes need to ease into exercise and HIT is a gimmick so yeah.. the idea of needing raise your heart rate and move as fast as possible is TV brains for people who have never done it. Start with just some basic strength training and go from there.
@@noventay4 I'm an Army Veteran, I go hard, I've been doing aerobics for years, but HIGH impact 4-5 days/week, plus HOT Yoga classes did a number on my electrolyte levels.....
The most thorough summary on cardiovascular problems and remedies I've watched so far. You've got all the bases covered... Doc (As usual)....Great job.. Brilliant..!!!
Congrats! You're living my dream! Do you do strictly clean keto? Just curious because I'm having the hardest time with todays prices getting my grocery budget on point with the items that's always suggested for that.
I believe you regarding electric fields. I've hardwired my laptop and set it on a table rather than my lap. WIFI is gone, even on my cell. I just use the data, speaker phone, and no longer keep it next to my body, even in airplane mode. In my small apartment, it's impossible to get twenty feet away (recommended) from the WIFI tower, so it's been taken down. I feel so much better.
I had a high resting heart rate, I increased my water consumption and it went down significantly. Chronic dehydration is a thing and it seems nobody talks about that. Hope this helps
I really like how you summarize everything in the description for people like me (who at times have NO time or patience to listen to the whole thing and just need ANSWERS) lol 👍🏼 you are a Beautiful Soul, Dr Berg, For Real, Keep It Up 🖤
OMG...Dr.Berg....I love ALL yoir video's! I have been fearful ever since my father died of a heart attack at 63. I am DETERMINED to go keto, loose the weigjt to be healthy and live my best life. THANK YOU!!!❤️💕❤️💕
All my life my family cooked out of cast iron frying pans and when I left home I continued the tradition. When I was in my late 20’s my doctor told me I had high iron and wanted to know if anyone in my family had high iron. My grandfather on my fathers side did and he also died of a liver disease. I got rid of all my cast iron pans and months later my iron was normal again. I miss cooking in cast iron pans but not that much if it effects my health. It’s funny how people can all consume the same things but only a few seem to be effective negatively by it.
Thank you Dr. Berg. My sister had a heart problem. Keto diet and fasting has been helping her a lot. Now she is free from medication. Dr. Berg, please talk about herniated disc, the symptoms, the cause, and how to treat it. Thank you🌹
Doing keto won’t help you get off medication!! I know because I did keto years ago! Now I unfortunately have 29% blockages of arthritis ! Plus I had 2 A/ fib! I switched over to plant based ! Eating oatmeal everyday fruit smoothie! I feel so much better eating plant! Lifting weights everyday walking!
I know this has been said many times but the fact that you put all this unbelievably helpfull information online for free is legendary. Thanks you so much Dr! :)
@@wesleybecker6414first of all tobacco doesn’t cause decay in teeth so that’s irrelevant. And I would bet you had fluoride in your well water. It’s naturally occurring so we see it in TONS of ground water! It’s pretty simple, decay is caused by sugar and carbohydrates. So if you’re even semi healthy with your sugar intake, you’re not going to just get cavities.
I'm 65, and recently began eating a lot more fruit in my diet, bananas, pears, cherry tomatoes, strawberries, grapes, l put on over a stone in weight which was annoying and l expected my blood pressure to be bad at my annual bloods and BP check up, but my BP was 116 over 68 which the nurse assured me was very good especially for my age, the weight gain was mostly from my being unable to get out and about lately because of a leg injury which has taken 2 months to begin clearing up. My pulse was 68.

L-Arginine if you had chicken pox, can cause a shingles outbreak, after several outbreaks I started taking Lysine to keep it at bay 4 a day. Any food that raises Arginine in-the blood causes shingles.
Thank you Dr. Berg. I recently had open heart surgery to repair ASD. I Wanted to help lower my heart rhythm. I’m also taking a supplement that has most of the above mentioned. This video was so helpful.
Good analysis, a few points: Blood viscosity: have CRP and fibrinogen checked. Ideal is less than 1 CRP and 360 fibrinogen. Thrombus: a blood clot is 65 percent fibrin or fibrinogen, 25 percent platelets and 4 percent cholesterol. Mitochondria: the heart has more mitochondria per cell than any organ. To improve oxygen flow CoQ10, D ribose, L canitine improve the electron transfer chain function and converting ADP to ATP. Statins: suppress K2, CoQ10, increase risk of diabetes, brain fog, skin cancer, etc.
I year ago I watched you video you told us sugar can kill us I 🛑 stopped. I am 50 years old I feel I am 25 years old my health improved a lot ✅✅thank you very much you helped millions around the world 🌎
My heart pain and high blood pressure decreased and stopped by using your data. I am so thankful. Especially the pain can be so scary, not just painful…I’m done with all these now…If some starts again, I know what to do and see benefits really fast. Thank you so much for your hard work 👏👏👏
@Hell Raiser I started healthy keto and intermittent fasting. Sometimes experimenting with his keto carnivore plan. Fasting at least 18 hrs based on his videos. Then using his electrolytes & D3&K2 helped me further on this subject and others.
Hello Doctor Berg-you just hit it out of the park again! I may have missed it, but do you have a remedy for-or a video about-LOW pulse rate? My last trip to the cardiologist, all of my bloodwork readings (and my blood pressure) were stellar EXCEPT that my heart rate was now in the 40s! The cardiologist addressed this by reducing the dosage of my Urosin (Atenolol). It was originally 1 pill/day, then reduced to 1/2, then to 1/4, and this time to 1/4 pill every two days. Doctor Google says that this medicine addresses high blood pressure, but can cause a too low heart rate. This reduced dosage seems to be doing the trick, but I’d like to also apply some lifestyle remedies (diet, exercise, etc.) on my end of things if there are some available. Thanks for the great work you do! And greetings from Taipei, Taiwan.
He did a lot of videos on he nervous system. If you search this channel or his website with words like “nervous system”, you will get a list of videos answering your questions. Did awesome for me.
Yes it's very important to consult your doctor . If you are on a pharmaceutical blood thinner you should not have raw garlic as well because it's like doubling up on your blood thinner. You take one or the other, not both. Garlic would be better.
Hmm. My husband was on Eliquis for 1 yr and his doctor never told him not to eat raw garlic. He still has the clots and is doing PT for veinous thoracic outlet syndrome.
@@aslrunner Given the a healthy blood viscosity (thick and thinness) reading is around 3.5 to 5.5 cP, it would be interesting to know what your husbands is while on both Pharmacutical med thinners and garlic and then 3 months with no garlic. Does he have raw garlic every day?
@@aslrunner Having just read about people who are prone to blood clots from a genetic condition, they are around 4% of the caucasian population, inherited mainly by people of European descent. But for people who don't have this genetic problem of blood clotting, should be made aware that garlic doubles the thinning effect of blood. Perhaps it is to your husbands advantage.
I’m on Eliquis blood🩸thinner pills 💊 my cardiologist usually goes natural route before prescribing pharmaceutical meds that’s WHY he’s SO busy/booked up BUT this one ☝🏻 about don’t eat raw garlic 🧄 while taking Eliquis he’s never 👎🏻 told ME about 😱 looks like I need to educate him on this 💭 I’m in perimenopause and I have to stop ✋🏻 taking MY blood🩸thinner pills 💊 till MY period stops bleeding🩸then once I stop ✋🏻 I go back on blood🩸thinner pills 💊 it’s all SO stressful!

Thank you Dr Eric Berg for all the details on RU-vid. I’m almost 48 years old. From past two year I’m checking my CAC score. My total CAC score was 137 in April, 2021 and in Jun 2021 my score was 167. (I was on high corb and frequent eating in this period) As per Dr Eric, I changed my diet to low carb, high fat and 16- to 20 hrs fasting. Now my CAC score is 168 (Jun-2022). That’s less than 1% increase in from past year. Dr. Please advise how can I reverse or bring down my CAC sore from 168? I’m eating brie cheese, Avocados and Nattoo powder for breakfast. NOTE: As per cardiologist, it is not possible to stop and only option is take statins daily.
My cac score was a 6. And I was very overweight having that score. I think my cac score was so good bc I started taking k2-mk7 a few times a day for several months along with Vit D as Dr Berg suggested to remove calcium buildup in the arteries.
@@PrimitiveFilmGroup , congrats on your score! FYI, K2 is not only supported by D3, but also vit. A is required. Together, they perform the perfect trifecta. I read a book called Vitamin K2 and the Calcium Paradox. It explains the entire enzymatic cycle. The author also explains why you should never take calcium supplements (just eat calcium that's naturally occurring in food). So, be sure to read the ingredients on all supplements and vitamins, to be sure there isn't any ADDED calcium listed. I couldn't believe how many K2 products had calcium added!
I hope this message reaches you. Thank you for the informative video. I wonder if you could make a video whether it is possible to reverse to some extent calcified atherosclerosis in the heart arteries and to reduce CAC score and how.
Super informative video Dr. Berg! I just watched an earlier video of yours about racing heart could be caused by the gallbladder. Started taking Tudca again yesterday. Looks like it needs to be something regular I'm doing. Had Covid in January which seems to have magnified anything I had going on previous to it. Dealing with UC which I'm sure is flaring some of my other issues. Trying to do better with my keto and IF but UC is not allowing me to have any raw vegetables so just trying to figured out how to balance my diet of keto with diet for UC!! As always, your videos are ALWAYS timely!! Thank you so much again!!! ♥
Ok! Covid could also be caused by a low vitamin D or low absorption absorption of it. Also by low potassium. Dr Berg has a few videos on these which help me tremendously.
Suggestion: Is it possible that you could start or end your presentation where you aren’t in front of the white board? This would make it possible to take one screenshot and study everything at once. Thanks.
Good info! I've been getting bummed out even if I'm healing from my CHF. From stage 4 to stage 2 myself; these are solid recommendations. It's good to hear someone else say it also.
@@Bait1official I took high doses of thiamine (vitamin B1). I balanced and increased my minerals (sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfate, manganese, and the other 71 minerals). I made sure I got my vitamins all 18 of them A-K2. I worked at correcting my fats (Omega 3, 6, & 9) and avoiding processed fats and oils. I then finished my supplementation with the essential12 Amino Acids my body can't synthesize. I know supplements (pills) aren't the best nutrition but, when you're failing they are better then nothing. Currently I'm working towards building my food to contain the complete nutrition needed to avoid the complications, manipulations, legalizations, price, and limited quality of all current commercial food products. I have found there are 155+ elements to our nutritional needs. You supply these elements to cover deficiencies, you correct over 900 diseases. So, to start healing requires B1, salt, water, sulfate, and potassium. Then comes the essential 77 minerals, bile salts, animal fats (clean unprocessed), and proteins. Then filter in the probiotics, prebiotics, enzymes, and low oxalate and low phytic acid plant fiber. No sugar, carbs, seed oils, seeds, or alcohol. And last, avoid EMR while fasting after you have a more complete nutritional profile working in you.
@@willthomas2310 I found a few more bugs The biggest bug is balancing all the minerals, vitamins, amino acids, and fatty acids after you've found the most natural state for each. And the price, it costs a grand a month for supplements on the up and up. So, I'm trying to get into a position where I can grow it myself.
@@Drberg thanks for this information but I do not get the heart enlargement part well..I was diagnosed mild heart enlargment oct 2021..please I need direct information here to work on myself please
ONE OF YOUR BEST VIDS !!!!! CONCISE, TO THE POINT, & ALWAYS PRIORITIZING MOST EFFECTIVE NUTRIENTS FOR WHATEVER !!!! THANKS DR BERG, MY SHOPPING LIST IS SO FOCUSED BECAUSE OF YOU.....😄
Dr. Berg, great analysis regarding potentional risks to our hearts. Anyways, I was on Monday in IKEM in Prague regarding my heart and results were for my cardiologist more than good. Cholesterol 3,7. They measure cholesterol not insulin. Professor Ben Bikman probably would tell them something😊. So, my weight is now 98 kg and I am aiming down to 93 on Keto and sufficient level of sodium, calcium, pottasium and magnesium. Regarding recurgitance of my aortal valve it is still between 2/3. Other valves 1-2. So, good no potential chirugic invasive exchange for mechanical valve on the eve. Nevertheless, all my problems or my condition is caused by 50% Murphy syndrome ( that is my tissue is ill). some of my organs and parts of my body evolved in atypical shape. ( Paganini had this sickness 100%). It is about of lack of collagen? It influence mostly heart, eyes and teeths. Is it possible to revert this shortage of collagen in my body that my tissue might be healed? Thanks for info. Radomír
This is a great 👍🏻 video!! I was put on blood thinners after open heart surgery 20 years ago. I had a severe allergic reaction to all blood thinners and anti inflammatories. Doctors wrote me off because of it, but I followed the information given by Dr. Stephen Sinatra’s book. In his book he recommended Nattokinase which I’ve taken successfully for 20 years. I wish Dr. Berg would have given us information on dosages.
Do a search on his prior videos he mentions what foods etc. type in say potassium…. His Nutritional Yeast supplement is a great product, I highly recommend it.
After my first stent March/21 and keeping a good diet to improve my heart health adding all the recommendations that you mentioned,finally my goal been reached A1C 5.9 ,LDL 56 , HDL 35, triglycerides 66 . But the Anion gap is 4.70 ,GFR 106 ratio. Knowing since adding vitamin B3 500 which helps tremendously on cholesterol levels. My question why Anion gap level is low knowing that I never experienced this level please review and respond thanks.
My mom had a hot dog (corn dog that my kids didn't finish) right before she went for a check up. She said she was so thirsty. At the check up the nurse heard a murmur. I said she just had a hot dog and had nothing to drink. I wonder if the high sodium and lack of water intake could have caused the body to make sounds that sounded like a murmur?
What I would like to know is what to do for low blood pressure and low pulse rate. If I have too much salt I swell up. What to do, what to do? I eat dark leafy green salads almost every day, have hypothyroidism but doc think the Synthroid is what is causing the SVTs and Afib. I am back on a higher dose because I wasn’t doing well on 50 mcg. I wish I could afford to see you Dr Berg. I got to feel better!

Hi Doc, I like your videos, and as much as I can, i watch them. what are your views about psoriasis? Are there any recommendations for treatment. Wd profoundly appreciate.
Dr Berg last year I thought I had high blood pressure I started keto and lost 70 lbs … I found out I didn’t have high blood pressure I had white coat syndrome !
It’s a real thing. I have that too. Thankfully, when I tell doctors, they understand and give me time to calm down, warm me up or they tell me to take my pressure at the supermarket kiosk.
@@dougm2250 sounds funny but it’s a real thing. Some people get anxious about seeing doctors and they tense up and it affects their blood pressure. I’m one of those people.
Great tips for people to consider. The solution is not always a pharmaceutical prescribed by your doctor. I like to see my doctor and get diagnosed, then I consider steps I can take myself to make improvements for the situation. ( life style changes) Some of those pharmaceuticals have long-term side effects that outweigh any benefits. ( base of course on your particular value matrix)
I was doing research and articles appear stating that intermittent fasting increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. I noticed after I did a hard core fast, at times my heart will just beat fast out of nowhere and I feel sensations in my hands and body that feel like they are weak and I want to collapse almost. I received an influenza vaccine in October 2016, and whatever was in it was "not normal." I have never had sickness in my body like that ever. I am glad I left due to the harassment I had to deal with.
Be careful with that. Don't get stressed out. Take a baby aspirin everyday if you can. Keep a check on your blood pressure several times a day.Get a doctor's appointment to check you out.
I’ve been suffering since Jan 2020 with POTS after coming down with a virus that from that point really changed my life. I went from an athletic 35 year old to someone who could barely walk. Thankfully I recovered enough to lead a normal life and go for short walks, but any other form of exercise and I’d feel awful for days and have anxiety attacks. Seen your video where you mentioned Quercetin the other day, which lead me to investigate MCAS and my golly could I relate to so many triggers and symptoms. I have started taking quercetin, zinc, vitC & olive oil and I feel so much better. I plan to add kidney for DAO and increase omega 3 to hopefully see further improvement. Anyway, thank you so much Dr Berg for all the valuable knowledge you share, you are an absolute legend 👍!
