Thank you Dr Berg. I am following the intermittent fasting, stopping eating sugar, starches, and grains. Added ACV with whole Lemons blended. And added spurlina tabs. I have lost 15 pounds in 2 weeks. Im sleeping. And my blood sugar is under control without meds. Dr Berg, thank you so much. Oh im walking 45 minutes per day. I feel so good. And it is so easy. Stevia is also helpful. I plan to reverse my diabetes, get rid of the other old man problems. Kudos Dr Berg.
That's fantastic! Congratulations! Dr. Berg would love to hear about your success! Please use this link to upload your story: www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story Dr. Berg's Support Team.
Thankyiu dr Berg. I really I am Enthusiastic about the surplus of of your content I have recently found on your channel. For almost twenty years I’ve been trying to balance out 200 grams of carbs or more a day with insulin as a type 1 diabetic as I was in the frame of mind that you need carbs to expend for fuel for a working day. I’ve recent has a few months of work and watched some of this content. It’s made me do more research and made me realise that organisations such as the FDA have the information they provide quite dangerously wrong if it is not scrutinised properly. Your content puts everything on to perspective. I gradually lowered mired my carb to insulin ratio. Now I basically ration my carbs and take the smallest dose of bonus insulin possible. My health is already so much better and hba1c. Becoming pretty close to non diabetic. All this is because basically during daily working life I forfeit that you can also get your energy needs primary from good healthy fat. If anyone needs proof that your diet plan is a healthy model. I can see that it is, as a type 1 dieabetic that has to measure everything from carbs to exercise i a can say without doubt that low carb. Is the way to go. And you your channel is one of the places where the content is a good place to find a really good reference guide sideline for anyone trying to reaserch realistic biological personal health.
@@Drberg I ❤you , yu are so smart!! America needs you, and you’re calm way of teaching makes it even better!!! 💪🏽 when using the one in his help me so much in one of your videos, we spoke about it, and also some information for your eyes, Will share on the link
I fought with sinus problems my whole life and looked high and low for help. I started spirulina over 5 years ago and I haven’t had any allergy or sinus problems since. I take it everyday!! Ty for all your work.
I am a fan of Spirulina I am diabetic and Spirulina detox my kidney my liver my eyes my heart are okey I am using those for 20 years already and I must say it’s a gift of God to humanity
Been taking spirulina and chlorella for years now. Excellent for health and energy boost. A few years back when I was living alone I had a mouse in my apartment over the winter. They ate my spirulina and chlorella one night and by passed the potato chips and other crap i had on my counter. Then and there I new spirulina was the real deal.
So here is my story.. I grew up in Portugal 🇵🇹 a small country in Europe. I lived close to my grandparents and spend most of my free time with them. They would eat mostly Keto but without even knowing. Our diet was based on dairy,lots of salads, soups, pork, chicken, lamb and lots of fish. They never tried pizza( they passed in 2019/2020 at the age of 102 & 99. They also never tried soda, fast food or ready meals. Most of our soups would be from whatever my grandpa had available from his garden. They also ate their larger meal in the morning and decreasing the amount of food through the day. I was allowed a cup of soda for my birthday and that was it. My grandmother made lots of fermented vegetables, cheese,olive oil and even her own butter. Cleaning the food was also a very important part of our chores. Always clean your food. Unlike my grandparents my parents are more inclined to modern food. Not huge amount but they’ll buy ham, pastries and other foods that aren’t so good. When I was 24 years old I moved to a different county due to work and since then my diet just got worse and worse. I no longer had the neighbour to trade fresh organic eggs for a bunch of spinach. I started developing allergies, brain fog, anxiety. Any social event that included a drink or food would make my heart race. When I first heard about Dr Berg I didn’t went straight into the diet. I studied a lot about Keto not understanding that Keto was my growing up( diet)principals after all. When I made this connection I started eating like I did when I was little and up to my mid 20’s. I now corrected my allergies. I don’t have acne, I do not have brain fog 😶🌫️ and most importantly I feel happy. I did and do a lot of intermittent fasting and I feel great. I like to break my fast with blueberry water kefir blended with kale a tea spoon of spirulina. I know you don’t send your products overseas but you should consider to. I’d certainly buy your supplements specially the vitamin d from mushrooms. Keep your good work and thanks for sharing with us
almost have similar symptom , the skin allergy end by hyperpigmentation i will try spiroline they suggest blue spiroline , do you have any idea abt the difference bet blue and green thanks alot for sharing ur awsome story
I find Portuguese culture so close to Russian it is like you are connected by some hidden history. Modern food sucks and the old ways of portuguese life need to be protected like gold!
Thank you Dr. Berg , the information is great. I have been taking Spirulina for almost 4 years now usually with an empty stomach in the morning with 24 ounces of water to prevent cancer and to keeps the blood alkaline in the body . I feel great. I have benn in remission for four years no symptoms or signs of any pain in my stomach. Thanks so much for your informational and educational videos.
Very interesting! I'm inspired I shall too start taking it on an empty stomach every morning, the only thing is i do intermittent fasting, how ever i drink black coffee every morning, that doesn't break my fast, so wonderd if spiriluna would break my fast, confused🤷🏼♂️
I started taking Spirulina about ten years ago but stopped after I read some reports about toxins that are in some algae. However, in the 1980s we had a local radio station that had a contest to see who could hold onto a new truck the longest, it was an endurance contest. the same person won it both years and he credited his intake of algae. I also worked with a guy who took it in a bottle of water daily, he had so much energy he would sometimes run during his lunch break.
Yes, you need to know where and how it's grown and produced. My understanding is that the best Spirulinas are from Hawaii, South India and Taiwan. A few producers will include a 'Certificate of Analysis' with their Spirulina or will be happy to provide one on request. Not all Spirulina is created equally - some will probably do more harm than good but a good one will give you wonderful benefits.
@@trs1481 I doubt that anything "best" or high quality comes from south India or Taiwan. There aren't any pristine waters anywhere near those locations.
@@acbarker4025 As someone who has actually gone to India, there are many many many clean waters in India. Western propaganda done right. So many polluted rivers in America, too.
Ive been taking spirulina daily for 15 years. Coupled w/garlic kraut and some other voodoo superfoods I have been blessed with exceptional health and vitality. Spirulina is my #1 though. Thank you Dr. Berg for all you do!
We use a lot of your products and they have done wonders Taking the vit D plus K2 amazed my cardiologist he said you have no CV disease and no plaque at all not bad at age 76 . You got us onto Keto changed our lives
@robertkreamer So good to hear that. Could you possibly share your brand and or dosage of vitamin D and K2? Also do you take them together or spaced out through meals etc.
@@bgueberdenteich5206 Just spirulina. It is just dried into little crunchie little bits. It comes in a little bag. You can sprinkle on salads or blend it into drinks. You could eat them straight too but you’ll turn your teeth green!
@@Yowzbrrkylll I buy them at Whole Foods in the supplement aisle. They are with the food powders. You could probably find them online too or in whatever form you prefer.
I started taking spirulina three weeks ago I know it’s beneficial and along with tumeric which literally changed my life I will continue to feel renewed cor as long as I can - it’s great and no Meds or otc needed
one more important thing: It stimulates increased production of both forms of interferon inside the cell. Thus boosting immune function against viruses.
@@christopherwg4236 Hawaiian Spirulina contains 3mg/6 tablets or 3mg/3gm. Ask your health professional if in your case it would be ok.Always take 100mg-200mg/day of Zinc to kill the virus inside your cells.
@@christopherwg4236I have the same concerns, as for non menstruating women, this is an issue as well. Iron accumulates in the body, so I would use spirulina, modestly.
Dr. Berg, I have a question. I had been taking Spirulina for many years and recently I stopped after I watched a video saying that the B12 in it is not bioavailable and it keeps out regular B12 from assimilating in our bodies which leaves us deficient in B12. I this true? @@Drberg
With your help, I'm now down 44 lbs. since mid April.......fasting 36 hours once a week, followed by 20 hours fasting every day.....I eat "lunch" at 2 pm and dinner any where between 5 and 7pm.....my goal is to reach at least 60 lbs. lost and quite possibly 70 lbs. I feel great! Thank yoy!
I've been taking spirulina for a couple of month's now...and can tell a major difference in my skin... As well as age spots on my hands are almost gone! I can tell a difference in my energy when I don't take it.
@@lifewithmissa8985 before or after you eat... I usually do before I eat. Though, be mindful that certain minerals can build up. I noticed that I was having heart flutters after taking it for several years. Took about two weeks for flutters to stop.
Success story...your info on acid reflux completely fixed my stomach and reflux problem. Also, the info you shared about cabbage juice and making your own sautkraut was excellent and really usefull. If I have any ailment your my first stop for advice, which usually ends up as the cure! No drugs, no bullshit, just the straight natural science. Your a lifesaver 😁👍 I tell everyone to check out your vids!
I benefited from your videos on Apple cider vinegar. I used to take prescribed omeprazole (which, of course, has several side effects) but now I take ACV with no side effects…except no more acid reflux. You’re a godsend, Dr. Berg!
Algae is one of our most important resource which we still do not use that much. For example, algae could be make into a very productive biodiesel as well.
Now I Have dilemma : to become or not an astronaut ? Love your speech style. Only professional like you can explain so easy that everybody can understand.
my dailysupplements are spirulina,moringa and cod liver oil. then i get the rest of my nutrients from fresh foods. and i do omad. hope i can live 100yrs
Best of luck to you! It's a great goal, and living like you will reach 100 will certainly add many quality years to your life. Don't pay any attention to those who seem to want to wipe the smile off someone's face just because they can't resist not doing so.
@rzomg how many at 100 plus have been eating keto? Yes it may be in the genes of those that in the past have lived to be 100 and didn’t worry about what they ate. What age would those people have lived to if they had been eating a proper human diet? So in other words if eating a proper human diet 100 may be obtainable without those genes. If there really is such a gene.
Don’t stop Moringa as it has other benefits to spirulina. These things operate differently and you can’t just substitute one for the other. My advice is to rotate them and not use one thing every day or your body becomes allergic to it. We needs breaks inbetween prolonged use of supplements so use spirulina for a while then stop and try moringa then stop and use chlorella - mix and rotate, give your body breaks and gaps, let your body also heal inbetween and don’t overload.
Just thought about Spirulina today since I usually take it twice a year, late fall and early spring. As usual Dr. Berg with his useful information! And right in time! You are reading our minds, Dr. Berg! Thank you!
Your body goes through seasonal changes as it prepares for warmer or colder weather. Spirulina will help as it’s a superfood. It’s good to take a break from foods so taking it when you need it the most makes sense.
yes, that is true Big Pic. I've taken Quercetin since 2012 in the morning when I know pollen count is high. Then spirulina mid-day. My allergy symptoms have vanished. I also use late summer for hay fever. I believe the liver holds and/or processes histamines and when it gets too runned down to handle them.....that doesn't help.
Thank you dr berg frkm south africa,we love and appreciate your content greatly,it empowers us to read and follow labels,and not just pop big pharma junk down our trhoats,you educate us on so many levels than i dont rush to dr anymore cause i just started keto,thank you stax Dr Berg,keep up the great work,Respect,
My name is Mariela Gil thank you so much for all the information I had learned from you . First, I had slow metabolism on which I could not loose weight . I had high cholesterol 240 on which my doctor prescribed cholesterol pill . I did research and I change completely my nutrition . I refused to take the cholesterol pills. I follow your Keto diet . Well I lost 35 pounds . My type 2 diabetes A1C was 8 so I knew was high . Well I lowered to A1C 6 . This is a big change . I have been doing keto for over 4 years. I see the difference I don’t have brain fog . I am alert focus , less tired . Also my sugar is much better . My goal is A1C 5 . I will get there . Usually the last score to achieve is hard. I drink spirulina twice a day and I noticed the difference in my body. Thank you so much . You are the best Doctor . You explained every single information and give us reference .
Thank you so much Dr. Berg for the info you present n your videos.....your are the antidote to the american system of treating symptoms with more and more pharmaceuticals yet never attempting to deal with the underlying problem...you are a doctor in the original meaning of the word "teacher" You are teaching me how my body was created to function and following your advice I am feeling stronger, I have type 2 diabetes and cirrhosis of the liver....Thank you and keep up the good work.....
You have helped me so much... I have autoimmune atrophic gastritis (B12 130, folate 3 etc) and i learned the hard way many things. The most important was the importance of acidic stomach when we eat. Thank you again! If you could do a video for autoimmune atrophic gastritis it would be soooo good. Love u really! Greetings from Greece!
I HAVE BEEN TAKING SPURRIER FOR MANY YEARS NOW AMAZING and MOST JAMAICAN PEOPLE TAKES IT EVERYDAY. THANK YOU MOTHER EARTH YOU ARE SO KIND TO US. LET'S ALL SAVE OUR PLANET.. OUR HOME THAT GIVES US ALL THE NATURAL HEALING FOR OUR BODIES. PEACE
I wish I knew this when I was younger I'm turning 39 yrs old this month and thanks to you Dr Eric I will buy spirulina and add this to my diet. Thank you
Thank you Doc for always sharing your knowledge to everyone who considers health as wealth. I'm from Philippines 39 years old working mom and on pre menopause stage😢 today I will start taking spirulina tables as a supplement to fight for my fibroids
I took your advice, Dr. Berg, while in the process of learning and limiting my consumption of prescription drugs. Have nearly eliminated all except for oc supplements by drinking one cup of Hibiscus tea a day for hypertension. I tested this for two months by using my monitor twice daily, starting end of March/23. All my numbers went down dramatically. Then checking with my primary dr, she said to stop taking one rx chlorthalidone and to reduce Losartan to 25 mg daily. I've been doing this ever since and I will see if I can go off the 25 mg Losrtan when I visit her next month. Thank you for that video which convinced me to try because an added bonus was getting off Potassium tablets because of side effects of bp meds. I think you value the people you help more than the average doc who doesn't care about us much, but sees just another number.
I can’t live without spirulina, I notice a huge difference (negatively) when I don’t take it daily. It helps my digestion tremendously and aids my nutrient deficiencies.
Thanks Dr. berg. I have been watching your encouragements here on UTube for many years. As a self taught nitritionist I have much helped by your healthy discussions: a greatfull 84yr old. Thank you.
I want to try this. I am so thankful for all of your valuable info. It has made such huge improvements in my life, well being. I feel so much better today, in my 60's, following your tips/ info. From vitamins, minerals, keto and exercise. Thank you so much Dr. Berg❤️💕❤️💯
Dr , I have been following you for years now. I was watching you every day about 4 years ago for a year. I am the cook and my husband and I were on keto. Each of us lost 100 lbs. since then we went off, I have gain only a little bit. My husband did gain about 40 lbs back. We are about to use it again so we both can be all the way to healthy size. My husband is going to have knee replacement in next few months. I look forward to our walks together again.
I’ve been watching your videos a while now and they have really caused me to experiment with my diet. I blitz a organic lemon a day and I’m much better at fasting. I just feel so much more in tune with my body. Thank you⭐️👍🏻✨⚡️
It helps because it helps alkalise the body. Many of us get sick specifically because we have become acidic. It's all about keeping your Blood and interstitium fluids high alkaline. The interstitium is a contiguous fluid-filled space existing between a structural barrier, such as a cell membrane or the skin, and internal structures, such as organs, including muscles and the circulatory system. The fluid in this space is called interstitial fluid, comprises water and solutes, and drains into the lymph system. The interstitial compartment is composed of connective and supporting tissues within the body - called the extracellular matrix - that are situated outside the blood and lymphatic vessels and the parenchyma of organs. Big P-Harma doesn't want us knowing this
Spirulina is an inexpensive way to get greens into your diet in a relatively non-perishable form (it can be stored in the freezer for extended periods of time as well). It's loaded with vitamins and minerals.
There is an issue around the Vitamin B12 in Spirulina; that it is similar to the Vitamin B12 the body needs, but not the same. It is similar enough to latch on to the B12 receptors of cells, thereby preventing B12 that is usable by the body and obtained from other sources, to attach to the receptors. Apparently Chlorella does not have this problem; the B12 in Chlorella is usable by the body. Would you care to comment?
Interesting do you recommend any brand or type to try? I have also been thinking of taking liquid or powdered chlorophyll lately. Thanks for this information and thanks in advance for any recommendations. Peace, Love & Blessings to all😇❤🙏🏻
Okay, you’re saying that chlorella has the same nutrients that Spirulina has (except for Vit B12 of course)? Please I’m trying to word this as a neutral party. I do not have knowledge of either and am searching for more information.
Just started taking it a year ago , I haven’t had a cold flu covid and my appetite has completely halved , it’s crazy . I’m dropping weight too . Something crazy good about this stuff , only down fall is pretty expensive. Cheers Swisse high strength spirulina
Thanks for reminded me to get some! I used to take it back in 1984 with I worked at the GNC vitamin store. That vitamin store has really gone down hill, since back in the day!
YES! Spirulina and Chlorella was the first supplement that I realy feel,,,, when you see green poop you know it starts work ! :D Great content like allways, thank you :)
I have been watching and learning from Dr. Berg's videos for months now. I even did the seven day fast. I just purchased spirulina yesterday to add to my Lion's mane, wheat grass to name a few. I am trying to consume at least four organic eggs a day, plus grass fed beef. Just trying to change old habits and live the Dr. Berg life style for myself and for my eight year old (I'll be 65 when she graduates!) Thank you so much Dr. Berg! I only wish you tube existed much earlier in my life and that I could have learned from people like you from an early age. I feel great physically and mentally more focused, especially after the fast! Wow, what an experience! THANK YOU!!!!
Please consider the high iodine content of spirulina. Here in the Netherlands a recommended daily intake of 200 microgram is regarded sufficient. The European Food Safety Authority recommends adults not to exceed 600 micrograms a day.
Japanese have high iodine diets with apparrently no ill effects from doing so. I eat seaweed all the time, I've never experienced goiter. I wouldn't recommend people dive into high iodine foods suddenly, but your body can adjust to higher iodine levels.
That's fantastic! Congratulations! Dr. Berg would love to hear about your success! Please use this link to upload your story: www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story Dr. Berg's Support Team.
Thank you Dr berg for all you do...my success story is by following all your advice I was able to bring my husbands kidney function EGFR from 42 to 89 in 10 months following the keto diet and eliminating all processed food! Thank you for saving his life!
Not everything about Spirulina or superfoods in general is good. I've read about toxicity as well as vitamin B12 depletion. Please provide more info regarding these as well.
Or... you can simply supplement the B vitamins. I do. For starters, the methylated B complex, the only kind to take -- if someone is undermethylated, many people who are have no clue they are, inactive B vitamins can be bad, folic acid in particular. And by the time someone is in their 50's, absorption of B vitamins through the intestinal track can drop off precipitously.
I have loved your videos. I have lost 22 pounds in the last 6 months by eating keto. I’m 68 years old and in a walker. I’m feeling better every day. Thank you 😊
Good job. Keep up the good work. Would you like to share your Keto/ IF success story on my website? I'd be happy to see your story there. Feel free to upload your story here: www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story
@@dio.ahmed3 yes! We have been using "Organic chlorella spirulina, 50/50 prefer mix." There is 100 servings and we found it on Amazon! We are loving it! No headaches or any issues here. We even mix it with our puppy's food everyday! Hope this helps and that you can find something that works for you! ☺️
@@Drberg Michelle commented below "Interesting...I have been working in the space food systems laboratory for 17 years where we prepare, package and ship food to the International Space Station and, to my knowledge, we do not provide spirulina to the astronauts. Maybe they did in the 70's."
@@Drberg Hey Dr. Berg! What do you think of blue green algae from the klamath lake?? They say it's more powerful and effective than chlorella and spirulina. Any knowledge on that?
Be carful of spirulina, it must be an excellent product and has the (third party) , don't buy cheap spirulina, some times it can have really bad side effects or toxicity (i got this information from a doctor) i hope dr berg would make a Video on this
I’m working on dialing in an autoimmune disease and have been supplementing with spirulina for a couple months now. My digestion has definitely improved, and inflammation has gone way down. When I’d finished off my first bottle, I wondered if I really needed to replace it….and felt myself actually craving it! (I chew my tablets every morning because I like the taste). My body definitely let me know- you’d better re-up!
Clint paddison who leads a group that helps people get safely off medication that have autoimmune disorders says one of the things his clients use to help them heal is spirulina and Chlorella
I actually bought some last month & stopped using it once I saw your video on spirulina vs chlorella in regards to the B12 issue. So it's been sitting there but now I watch this & im like time to put some in my smoothie again 🤦🏾♂️
I feel like since you mentioned b-12 analogues in spirulina in your other vid about plant based sources of b12 and recommended a larger source of real b12 to offset the deficiency problems spirulina can cause, you should have mentioned that fact here before people just start using the stuff.
I had been taking Spirulina for many years and recently I stopped after I watched a video saying that the B12 in it is not bioavailable and it keeps out regular B12 from assimilating in our bodies which leaves us deficient in B12. I this true?
@TheGringo1947 most nutrients from plants are not very bioavailable, but Spirulina is an exception. The bioavailability of the nutrients are very high, but I haven't heard anything about Spirulina possibly blocking B12. If this was true, people taking Spirulina for years would be deficient in B12, and this hasn't been observed as far as i know.
Wow didn't know all that data doc, i ran out of your whraygrass juice a while ago and definitely felt a lacking in my body so thought of trying spirulina. I've since renewed my supply but will take spirulina as well. Recently got my friend onto keto after referring him to your chanel and tell all my customers about your excellent data every day. Cheers buddy 😁👍🙏
You’re such a blessing Doctor Berg I need this I told my husband we got to get this so I’m trying to figure out which one to get because I got Addison’s disease and I think it would help me tremendously. I’m like the astronaut I need something powerful thank you so much. God bless you, we love you Doctor Berg You are awesome. Love you.🥰💕
