The Dr. Berg Show LIVE - March 27, 2026

you you you Hey everyone, we're back. Anything that I say is not intended to bypass your medical doctor check with them before implementing any of the things we're going to talk about. This is just food for thought. So that being said, let's dive into all the questions that are lined up for today. And we got a ton of them. Welcome world. Let's go to Kimmy from YouTube. I have anxiety, panic attacks constantly, and it's getting worse. That's too bad. What can I do to alleviate this condition? Sorry to hear that, Kimmy. There's two things that you can do. One is start breathing through your nose slowly. And this is really important too. And when you're trying to sleep at night and then you get up in the middle of the night and you're just laying there, slut on the breath, even in and out through the nose. That will pull yourself out of a panic attack. But ultimately, you have a severe B1 deficiency. In order to make B1 work, you also need magnesium. Always do the magnesium glycinate because it's absorbed the most compared to the other forms. So combination magnesium and B1. But you can't just do the typical amounts that are on the bottle with B1 because they're giving you just tiny, tiny amounts outdated by 100 years, like 1.2 milligrams. It's a joke. So you need at least 50 to 100 milligrams of natural B1 every single day with magnesium. That will pull you out of this anxiety state and panic state and then cut down on your carbohydrates. Don't eat snacks. Do intermittent fasting. It will work. I'll guarantee it. I'll give you your money back. Of course, you didn't pay anything. So. Refund pending nonetheless. Good luck with that. That sounds awful. Tony from YouTube speaking of B1. I always wake up feeling tired. Could this be a thiamine or B1 issue? It can be. But typically, if you wake up tired, either you have sleep apnea, which by the way, there's some great exercises for your tongue to strengthen the tongue to open the airways. And then you'll wake up feeling more refreshed. Try to sleep when you're not getting enough air. So that's one thing. The other reason why people are tired, they just don't seem to get rejuvenated while they're sleeping is they magnesium again. Magnesium is all about making ATP. It's the most important mineral. So you'd want to just kind of take a lot more magnesium and then see if your energy doesn't increase. But I used to have an energy problem so bad for so many years. I didn't know any of this stuff. But you get your food implemented with good animal protein, sufficient amounts to intermittent fasting. Make sure you have enough magnesium, B1. And you'll have more energy. So yeah, there's more to say about that. But I'll think I'll stop right now, Steve. All right. Well, you know, the audience is well versed on vitamin D and the sort of 10,000 IU kind of threshold or whatever. What about magnesium glycinate? What's safe? Or, you know, how do you take that? What's the dose? The RDAs for magnesium are between like 310 to 410-ish. But remember, those are just bare-bones survival amounts. I take like a thousand milligrams. So I don't take it all at once. I kind of take dosage to the day. I like it in the powder because it's a little bit easier with symptoms. I'll take the pills. But so that's, you need more to create a therapeutic effect. And this is why when people take it like, oh, I didn't see any change. Well, that's because you're taking the wrong form. You're taking like magnesium oxide or something, or maybe even citrate, and you're getting a tiny amount absorbed. So if it says in the label 400, and you're only absorbing 3% of that, I'm not good with math, but I think it comes out to like 17 milligrams. It's not going to do anything. It's just you're wasting your time. So have the right amount, sufficient amounts, therapeutic dosage for magnesium to be able to have it work. Also, you want to read the back of that label and make sure you have the cofactors because vitamin D works optimally with vitamin D and zinc and B6. So if those are missing or you're deficient, it might not work as good. All right. Thank you, sir. Jen from YouTube, what are the best remedies for the horrible lupus? That's an autoimmune problem. Okay. And two things. One is search. Dr. Coembre is a protocol using high doses of vitamin D3. And there's, I think there's might be four doctors in the US, but there's more around the world that you can work with to, you know, get your labs tested to monitor and regulate that to get increased vitamin D. So your immune system will start working, but I would also parallel with that really work on the microbiome and your gut. There is so many connections between diseases and illnesses and imbalance in your gut microbiome. I mean, it's just so fascinating. So you build that up and your immune system does better and especially lupus, you should see some great changes when you work on your microbiome. All right. Very good. Well, we've got a full house in the green room with four guests and we've got our questions and a new feature in the show that's fun and productive, which we'll share with you a little later. So let's kick it off with our first quiz question of the day, Doc. And there you go. What is the primary problem with the concept of everything in moderation? And I'm talking about eating. Everything in moderation. It's okay. Eating my nemesis. All right. Let's see. Let's move on back to social media. Vincent from Rumble, you often recommend lower to lower the bedroom temps at night for better sleep. But I find the colder temperature often clogs my nose. Any advice on how to resolve his sniffy nose? Well, I'm not exactly sure about your nose, but I will say some people need to keep their feet warm to sleep. I know that. But that's a different thing that doesn't really let your nose, but like some people can't sleep in a cold bedroom like I can. But if they warm their feet and they wear socks, they can sleep great. But yeah, with the nose, I think that's more a reflection of humidity and things like that. And then also if you have the window open, is there anything right now? There's a lot of pollinants and things. But in the nose, if it's your round and stuffiness, think some type of imbalance with fungus, in which case you need a diluted drop of kimchi as a microbe to do like a nasal rinse. And kind of open that up. There's also these different pieces of tape that you can actually put on your nose to open up the sinuses more. And so you can actually sleep better with that. All right, very good. Again, I say we're really busy. So let's go to our first guest of the day. He is Italian by trade, but coming to us from Georgia. And here he is. Welcome Matteo. Thank you. Thank you, doc. Okay, this is my question. Okay, I'm 50 years old with a large prostate. Both my father and grandfather had prostate cancer in the past. So my daughter had me done a biopsy in June 2025. Out of the 12 sample taken, three came back with high grade of PIN. So at the moment, as I watched one video doctor and about two weeks ago, I start taking one of your products. So visit I've been taking right now D3K2 20,000 UI daily 24 milligram magnesium, blastoenide. I'm taking zinc, codilever, all caps capsule ending. So my question is for you is that my goal is to have a healthy prostate and maybe shrink, you know, is that what I'm taking is enough? Or will you recommend something else to add on? Or maybe dosage or not correct? Well, I think you're doing some really good things with that. But I'm going to give you some tweaks on a couple things. There is some data that shows that the increase of endocrine disruptors in our environment has really contributed to an estrogenic effect that affects the prostate, especially, you know, the plastics and all the other things that we're consuming. So one thing that is important is something called dim and that's a concentrated cruciferous product compound that actually can help balance the astrogens in the body, which may be something that can help you. But I would also eliminate all forms of dairy right now because hormonally there's certain types of what's called anabolic effects, which make things get bigger. The prostate is very sensitive to hormones. So that's why you got to be careful about, you know, medications that stimulate that, which are side effects, but also dairy products. The other thing that I think would be very beneficial to is making sure that if you test your testosterone, okay, sometimes there's something called DHT, there's a DHT connection, make sure your testosterone is normal. And because if there's some problems with testosterone that can also lead to an enlarged prostate, but it's not necessarily because as men age, their testosterone goes down, but DHT could be an imbalance with that. So, Solpal metal, for example, can help balance that DHT for the prostate. You know, DHT is not a bad thing if it's in the, but you want it in the right amounts. In fact, DHT is one of the most powerful anti-anxiety remedies. It gives people confidence, it helps your muscle growth, all these things. So anyway, as we get older, we have a problem with testosterone and balances and the conversion that can happen from testosterone to the more powerful form, which is DHT. So that being said, you're taking, I think you're taking the right nutrition. I would focus more on the diet and do more intermittent fasting, especially if it runs in your family. Prostate responds very well to intermittent fasting and periodic prolonged fasting. Super important. I would definitely do more of that. Well, Matia, thanks for a great question. We hope that you find some relief with all that. And thanks for taking your time out to make the show better. Let's go to DMACC from YouTube. What is the best way to shrink liver cysts? Never heard of such a thing. That sounds awful. I've heard that castor oil packs and seropeptis, if I said that right, forgive me, Terry, would work. What are your thoughts? There's some interesting data on these castor oil packs that you can put over the liver. I honestly don't know how it penetrates, but apparently there's something that's happening there because people swear by it. But if you think about a cyst or some type of encapsulization, it's your body's trying to kind of ward off or hide or protect you from being exposed to some toxic, whatever. It's a big unknown, but there's a couple of things about cyst that I do know about. Definitely, definitely if your carbs are too high or you're drinking alcohol, deal with that because that can keep the cyst expanding through the body. I would do things to support the liver, the health of the liver by eating really super healthy low carb. I would do fermented cruciferous vegetables as in sauerkraut. I would support with milk thistle and also Tadka. Try to manage the liver as much as you can to make sure that it doesn't need to keep making more cysts and go that route. Most of the time they're benign. You don't have to worry about them, but it is something that you're like, okay, why don't they come there? Well, there's something your body is trying to protect you from and it's doing its job. So we just want to keep your body as clean as possible. That is great. Okay. In addition to our friend Matteo from Columbus, let's acknowledge other people that are watching the show from around the world. So we'd like to say a good day to our viewers joining us today from the UK, Canada, Mexico, Dubai, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Africa, Oratria, Cameroon, Poland, Mozambique, Mongolia. Excuse me, the Isle of Right. I don't think I've heard from them ever. Panama, Denmark, Japan, American, Samoa, Egypt, Romania, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Australia, Brazil, India, Belgium, Norway, Ethiopia, Argentina, New Zealand, Sweden, Trinidad and Tobago. That's a big thing between Terry and I. Who knows if I'm saying it right? Ecuador, Scotland, France, Australia, Peru, South Korea. Let's see. And of course, all across these United States of America. So thanks everybody for watching and chiming in and making our show successful. Let's see. Let's go to Gordy from YouTube. Which supplements would help relieve that pesky arthritis? So you have two types of arthritis, mainly osteo and rheumatoid. If it's rheumatoid, you need to do the high, that's autoimmune. So you need the high doses of vitamin D with the Colombo protocol. But if it's not and it's osteoarthritis, there's some new information out there that I'm going to share with people on a series of videos to how to apply the most amazing technique for arthritic joints that you're going to be very happy with. Now, there's another piece of the puzzle that I did not put in these videos because it would be too long because these videos are actual techniques to kind of remodel the joints. They're fascinating. But, you know, my question is like, wait a second, like how could someone have this wear and tear, you know, all of a sudden they lose their hip joint? Like, this doesn't make sense. Why would you actually lose a hip joint? Or why do you all of a sudden get all these joints that have all these spurs? It just doesn't make sense unless you had a severe injury. But so many people did not have that much of an injury and they still have this. Well, I found some data to show that there's another piece of the puzzle and there's microbes involved, which I suspected. There was a couple studies showing that people who took longer and very specific types of antibiotics got major relief with arthritus. About 60% results. Now, am I going to promote that? No, because it's not selective. But just the fact that that did help the arthritis tells me there is a microbial infection, which there is because what happens when you have an injury to the disc or a joint, you create an open door that you can leak microbes in there and they can get in there and create all sorts of inflammation. And create immune reactions and then you get more arthritis. So my thought was, why don't we just do in a selective antibiotic like garlic, thyme, oregano and use that. And that's what I would recommend if you are arthritis in addition to the technique I'm going to show you in the videos coming up in a week or two. All right, very good. Let's go to answer quiz question number one, which asks to the audience, what's the primary problem with the concept of everything in moderation like half a pie? Well, 74% of respondents say moderate amounts of food with unhealthy ingredients can be very harmful. 26% say there is no definite standards for in moderation, I agree. And 10% say moderation leads to over consumption. What do you think of the audience's reaction to this question? They're all correct. It's interesting to me, like if someone would tell you, Steve, just eat less and then just put it on your plate, just don't eat as much. That's impossible. Impossible for the average person. As soon as you start eating any number of things, especially there's something called, this might be new for you, it's called ultraprocess foods, aka junk foods. So these foods, yeah, it's a new concept. So these are completely intentionally designed for dependency and addiction, 1000%. Mouthfeel, flavorings, I mean, it's just across the board. So you're going to now try to practice moderation with your willpower. Good luck. You can't just have one. I can't. That's why I don't keep it in the house. So what you have to do is not have it in your space. And because the moderation thing was completely invented by the food industry. It's just a joke. It's a joke. You can't just because the addictive nature is kind of like taking an alcoholic, have them work in a liquor store and just say, just make sure if you do drink, just make sure it's moderate. Yeah. Okay. Good luck. Yeah, no kidding. Okay, Redskinned fan from rumble. What would you do for damaged nerves from multiple foot surgeries? The second metatarsal has no forward flexion. And I have severe osteoporosis, I guess they say, with laser therapy or what else can you do for that that hoist that's herty. Well, so to help the nerve regenerate benphotamine and alphalopoic acid is the best nerve regenerative formula. B1 was also helpful. But again, if you're not getting the dorsiflexion of that toe, you know, you do have a nerve component and you probably have pain. There's some fantastic stretches to do to stabilize the tissue around the toe. Chances are, you're just, it's affecting your gait, the way you walk, and then the pressure on that one toe and then it's so you need to make sure that you optimize the muscles in the foot, the mobility in the ankle, and the flexibility in the joint. And then balance it on left and right. So there's something that I would recommend. And it's called pales and rails PA I L S and R a I L S pales and rails for the ankle. And the foot, look them up. There's certain exercises that I would apply to your foot and then you'll find that your toe will feel much, much better when you do that. Do it to the left side and right side. And that will at least stabilize you with that B1 and hopefully help your gait so you don't end up limping and then creating problems in your knee and your hip. Yeah, good luck with that. Good luck with that. That sounds terrible. Let's go to quiz question number two, which you will ask for the audience, sir. Okay. Where did the, where did ancient man or humans get most of their magnesium? Interesting question. Okay, let's see. Let's let's go to bow Mac 23 from rumble. I follow your protocol for sludge and a gallbladder. What is the primary cause of sludge or improper processing of this sludge? So what we're talking about with related to sludge in the gallbladder area, your liver makes bile, but it makes it out of a raw material called cholesterol. So you need the right amount of cholesterol to make bile that then is mixed with cholesterol to make bile salts. So if you have the wrong concept, the ratios and you have too much cholesterol and not enough bile, then you will get sludge that will eventually turn into a stone. So what helps you convert it vitamin C? That's the big one. So if you're deficient vitamin C, you can't convert it. And all of a sudden you get this sludge, but also just the wrong foods. So foods high in Omega six tend to aggravate this area. Honestly, I've not found a lot of research on that, but I just know it from observation from being in practice for a long time. Nuts, peanut butter, things high in Omega six. They just really irritate underneath the right rib cage in that whole area. Avoid them. Definitely the seed oils and which are hidden in hummus, hidden in most of the food you just buy at the grocery store and definitely most of the restaurants. So after you eat at a restaurant, you're like, why do I feel kind of sluggish on underneath my rib cage? Well, because they cooked with certain foods that are could be in the dressing or something. And it's now irritating that area. So there you have it. All right, very good. And here we have, speaking of which, Ethel, who's coming to us as our next guest and Ethel, go ahead with one quick question for Dr. Berg, if you would. Dr. Berg, I watched your little video on kidney stones, and I have done everything that you mentioned in that. I've had a parathyroidectomy of two tumors. But after 33 years of kidney stones in both kidneys, what else can I do? Yes, I totally understand that is very frustrating. And the parathyroid tumors were interesting that you mentioned that because they're the gland that helps mobilize the calcium from your bone. And it puts it into the blood and it ends up in the kidney. So now, now you're like, okay, what am I going to do? So I think the most there's several things that I would do to cope with this as best as you can. I wouldn't avoid vitamin D. I would take at least 20,000 I use of vitamin D3. Now, people are going to say, well, wait a second, isn't that going to increase calcium absorption? Yeah, it's going to give you enough calcium. But if you take enough magnesium, you'll help keep the oxalates that tend to bind with the calcium, you'll keep them occupied. So they have like 100 times more affinity for magnesium. So if I were you, I would go up to at least 800 milligrams with magnesium glycinate. That's what I would do. I would take 800 milligrams. It's a lot more than average person kind of spread out to the day, because that will at least keep the calcium from building up in the kidneys. Number one, I would also drink no less than two and a half liters of fluid. That way you can't really concentrate any kidney stone situation. And I think the smaller things would be avoiding oxalate foods. I don't think that's the big thing. But those are the things I would do is like a lot more magnesium, eat healthy foods, and then make sure that you drink enough fluids. All right, well, thank you so much, Ethel. Appreciate that. I hope that helps out. And thanks for taking the time to join us. And Ethel, this is for you too. Let's go to quiz question number two, which asks the fascinating question of where did ancient humans get most of their magnesium? And our student audience, 65% of them said that most of them got their magnesium from leafy greens, 25% say from spring water, interesting, and 10% say from nutrient rich soils, which Dr. Berg, you say we don't always have anymore. So are those thoughtful answers? The thoughtful answers for sure. We did not get our magnesium from Amazon.com or the vitamin store. We got the magnesium from hard water and spring water. A lot of it. There was also certain plants, humans are omnivores, so they tend to have whatever is available, right? They would have, I looked at some of the tubers and the leafy greens that humans used to live on long ago, nothing even close to what we eat now, as far as potatoes. We eat the cactails, the whole thing, no problem. Maybe some tiger nuts, if you could find some, which are kind of like a sweet tuber. And then certain roots and things like that and certain plants, but mainly the animal protein as well, whatever we can get. So there was a lot more potassium back then than there is now. And there was a lot more magnesium in the plants. So magnesium and potassium tend to follow together. But that's where we used to get it. And now we don't, one thing is because of the farming practices with the NPK fertilizer, the three minerals, we really are deficient in the magnesium. Not because it's not in the soil. This is my own theory on this. I think it's in there. It's just not mobilized because there's no more microbes in the soil because we kill them through tilling and glyphosates and chemicals. So yes, superficially, there's probably a lot of things taken out from that soil, but we're living on a planet of minerals, but they need to be mobilized by the microbes. So that's a gap in the mismatch between back in the ancient time versus now. All right, very good. Let's press forward with quiz question number three for the day. And there you have it. How can a drug, and I'm talking specifically about SSRIs that causes sexual dysfunction in up to 65% of people who take them at the same time be called generally well tolerated? Not for that 65%. Anyway, that's awful. So audience, what do you think about that? Let's see. Let's go to Debbie from YouTube. What are the best supplements to take for someone recovering from a stroke? You'd want to take things that will increase oxygen, things that will increase blood flow, and those are supplements like hyperbaric would be the best thing. Chambers and then a lot of exercise. But as far as the nutrient goes, that actually increases more oxygen capacity in the body is the tocatrinals. That's a type of vitamin E that can greatly help assist in pushing more blood flow into the area. And of course, again, if we're trying to look at biochemistry and things to maximize your mitochondria, you'd want to support the mitochondria to get more oxygen going and coenzyme Q10, magnesium, the B vitamins, all crucial. Okay, back to the green room this time. Let's make it a two up there. And this is our friend, Nikki, with one question for you, sir. Go ahead, Nikki. Namaste, Dr. Berg. Quick question. Recently, I had a CA 125 blood work done and the result came back as 290 and HTA was 210. And I have Osteopenia. I'm just getting my MRI done. What is the best way to balance my high dose of D and K? And what other things I can do because my sister is called complex cyst. What how old are you? I'm about to be 15 August. Okay, you definitely look I thought maybe you're in your late 30s. So, so this is what I would do. What happens pre menopausal menopausal going into 50s. There's a drop there's a drop of estrogen estrogen definitely helps with your bones. So now you have this osteopenia. One of the most important things to do is make sure you have at least 20,000 I use about Md3. But for osteopenia and osteoporosis, I would take much higher amounts of K2 therapeutic doses or some data from Japan that shows women with osteoporosis took not 45 micrograms but 45 milligrams of K2. That's what I would do if I were you. And then you take that with your D3 and then take magnesium as well. That's going to be really important. And then, in addition to that, you need to do load bearing exercises on your spine and your hips and your legs. So start off small, but start going to the gym or have something in your house where you can do very safe deadlifts they have those. What is that call I can't remember the the unit but you can, they're very good because they it's not a bar in front of you you can actually you walk into it and you just lift it up, and you do squats. Not on the with the rack in the back of the neck but just squats up and down that'll put enough force on your spine, great. Over time to kind of build up more and more to activate more of the bone formation because you need to do heavier loads and some people even take heavier loads with their hands so they'll maybe have 20 or 30 pound weights with the hands and they'll walk with those to add more force on the spine. And then the body rebounds by adding more density of bone. So that's what I would do if I were you because you're going to have to activate it but also one thing that's going to be important is to make sure you have the trace minerals including boron. These are all just really key factors to not just build. You know it's not just about calcium. It's about bone building so you need all these trace minerals, a couple other little points that I want to mention is I wouldn't just take the RDA is I would take like trace minerals times for and just take keep those in the diet. A good portion of the bone is also collagen so I'd be taking collagen that has comes with vitamin C just to keep that you know the structure in there and then there's also silica so there's a lot of things to build bone I have a protocol in some of my videos you can watch that but it's not just a little thing and you the good thing you don't have osteoporosis it's just the osteopenia. Osteopenia never used to be a disease. And then they just made a disease but it's like saying pre diabetes is diabetes it's not. So it's just a warning sign like okay it's time to start working on your balance. All right Nikki thanks so much for a great presentation and Nikki also if you put in the comments what your fountain of youth formula is so you could share that with our guests that's pretty amazing. Dana from YouTube I have gastritis and taking baby aspirin because of two stents are there better alternatives to keep the blood from clotting. Well I thought you wanted to deal with your gastritis but we can talk about how to keep the blood from thinning garlic toketrinals super important. Maybe the natal kinase okay if you want to do blood thinning check with your doctor I didn't tell you this you didn't hear it for me. But those are three things to research but for gastritis which is a side effect probably from what you're taking you want to do cabbage juice that's one of the best remedies and also zinc carnal sign. Those two would be very wonderful. Yeah go ahead and do that. All right very good let's go to D from YouTube have you done any research on the benefits of DMSO. Yeah DMSO is a great solvent that you can it's like if you just like put a little bit on your hand. You'll taste it like within seconds I don't know how fast it goes through but it definitely it goes right skits sucked in the body and there's people use it for different types of pain and things like that. But you can also use it you can add things to it to help deliver certain things in the body there's like as a carrier so there's all there's books on this you can read and research on it so I think it's a great fascinating thing. I think there's some filters unfortunately on YouTube that they won't let you claim too much about or even talk about or they'll shut it down just like cloyle silver so that's really all I can say at this point. All right well I can say what quiz question number three asked to the audience and what they said. And it asks it says how can a drug SSRIs that causes sexual dysfunction in over half of people 65% of users be called generally well tolerated and 72% of respondents say that well tolerated refers to the low risk of death from overdose 27% of them say it's because SSRIs have fewer side effects than previous meds and so that's hopeful I guess. Or positive 10% say the effects are under reported because patients are so embarrassed I guess to share that I get it not me. Well if we compare these SSRIs to lobotomy yes they're they're a little more well tolerated. Now they're not. It's basically the answer is that's conflicting information you can't have 65% of those people who take them having sex post SSRI SSRI is sexual dysfunction disorder I think that's what it's called. You can't have that and say it's well tolerated that well tolerated thing is the mantra that big pharma keeps putting out there is a PR campaign because it's a lie. It's not well tolerated. There's massive amount of people. Under reported and also going on social media right now and literally you lose not just sexual dysfunction function but any sense any pleasure from sex and any pleasure in general emotions you can't feel emotions. I mean I was I was looking into this and I'm like, and you're right it's severely under reported massively unreported. So, again, it's coming out right now because from the Freedom of Information Act someone did a whole bunch of FOIA and different agencies and I'm like, Wow, this is crazy high like the amount of people that are having problems with this. It's just terrible so you may want to think twice before going on that just because it's not even when people come off the medication that that damage. I'm not going to call it withdrawals it's damage doesn't always come back it creates damage on the nerves that go to your private parts. So, definitely there needs to be more informed consent on this and they're trying to push for bills but big pharma is pushing back on this hardcore. Well, I'm really glad about the Mahoff phenomena and the floorboards that is kicking up in Washington and around and hopeful, you know, at least we're discovering what's really going on the next step after that I suppose is some remedy for it all. But let's go to trainer ace from YouTube I am a diabetic type one diabetic and I'm 27 years old dealing with weakness in the muscles for months now. Which nutrient should I focus on consuming to help with this weakness. Well, first thing is make sure that you optimize your body. So the need for insulin is at the lowest possible and that means consuming West Carbohydrates going on the healthy version of the ketogenic diet which be very therapeutic for you. But I think for your muscles, one of the most important things is to right make sure your testosterone is in check you're not that old. So, I think it's just a matter of taking more testosterone, eating super healthy and getting more compound resistant type of exercise to which greatly stimulates testosterone. These are things I would do on top of eating super healthy. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good.

Hello Dr. Bergleys. Thank you for having me here. So my question is about two months ago I got this random sore throat which just won't go away and I feel like it's burning a little bit. At the same time I started burping a lot and just having a lot of gas. I was consuming a lot of raw vegetables raw milk rock kefir and I noticed I got more gas when I eat carbs and I got a concentration when I got home. And I noticed that I get more gas when I eat carbs and sugar. So I think I might have something like SIBO. And my question is, could SIBO potentially cause me to have this sore throat? And what's the fastest way to heal my sore throat? Yeah, because I was thinking one way, but then when you said that, now I'm thinking another thing. Because I don't think this is a sore throat. I think it's certain gas acid vapors coming up from your digestive system and it's burning your throat. In which case, you have excess fermentation, probably in your small intestine, where you don't want it there. So if you feed your small intestine more fiber, you get worsening effects. So the two things you don't want to do is feed microbes in your small intestine. So refined sugars, oh my gosh, that'll probably tear you up. Because that's what those pathogens live on, is they love that there's simple sugars and even fiber. Honestly, the fastest way is I would do a two month carnivore diet. And that will probably solve your problem. Dr. William Davis, I interviewed him. He has a great book. It's called Super Gut on how to fix. You can go to his blog site, How to Fix Cebo, Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth. He recommends also making your own alruterite culture yogurt, which also can help as a keystone microbe support Cebo. But you want to add another microbe in there. You can watch my video interview I did with him. But I would definitely go carnivore. And for a couple months, and you probably will eliminate your problem A to B. And also make sure you only do maybe two meals a day, because you want to give your system a chance to reset the frequent eating. Not good for that problem. So those are some things I would start with. And then let us know in a month how you do. Yeah, really be fascinated to find out how that works for you, Janelle. I hope you'll write in and let us know either drberg.com or on our social media thing. And we'll look for it in the weeks and months ahead. So thanks for that great appearance for us. Let's go to Rock Justice from Rumble. Dr. Berg, what is your daily regimen of supplements? So I tend to take a lot more than probably what I need, because I'm a human guinea pig, and I'm always experimenting with things. But I take at least 1,000 milligrams of magnesium, just because I have been very deficient in the past. I tend to do very well on that. So I take that in the powder. So I'll take one scoop in some water four times a day. And then a few times a week, I'll add my electrolyte powder with the potassium in there, because potassium gives me a lot of energy when I work out, because it's hard to get potassium from the diet. So I'll do that. And then I'll do my trace minerals. I take four times the amount. So I take four of those in the morning. That way it has all the key trace minerals, including zinc. I also do collagen in my coffee in the morning. And then, of course, it's going into spring soon here, and then summer. And then I probably will. I get a lot of sun. So I won't be taking my vitamin D, but in the winter I take 20,000 I use about in the D3 on a daily basis. And I'll take that usually with my first meal, because it's a fat soluble. Even though it's not that important, because there's some oil in there. But this is pretty much what I'm doing now. And there are some other things. I'm always experimenting different types of probiotics before bed. And then when I find those things working, I'll report on them. But again, I'm a human guinea pig, rotating different supplements. And there's a lot that I take that I don't feel anything. So I don't really talk about them. Interesting. Well, I'm glad you've sacrificed yourself for that great quest. All right. So I teased earlier about something new in the show. First of all, we're expanding for your convenience to X and some other social media platforms, which will announce in the coming weeks as our tech team works that out so far, very hopeful, so that wherever you're at, you'll be able to access Dr. Berg and enjoy us with Evermore ease. And part of that, we have started on Facebook a question, a place where people can inquire about various health topics, specifically keto, diet, omad, Dr. Berg supplements, et cetera. And so we're going to call it the Facebook mail bag. So we have a few questions that were left. We're going to keep it to a minimum so that we can be fair to social media. But this gets some of the time to really focus on a question they have, and we think we've selected some good ones. So Dr. Berg, do you have that in front of you? Otherwise I can. Yeah. So let me just run through some of these questions. So someone want to know about parasite cleansing and binders. I'm just going to run through that really quickly. So wormwood extract, black walnut hauls, cloves are the three remedies for parasites. Now, when you binders would be the charcoal, not the charcoal when you fry certain things, but like the activated charcoal, which is safer. Bentonite clay are two binders. But any time you do a cleanse that you're going to mobilize toxicity, always do tutka a few days before. That opens up the bile ducts to allow things to go through the liver to prevent a lot of the side effects that happen when you detox. But parasites also, I'll be honest, like we've evolved with parasites and worms, and they do create beneficial things as well if you keep them in check. So it's not always about completely killing off every single thing in the body. That being said, when you consume these natural remedies, they're selective. They don't kill the good guys like antibiotics do. Question number two, why is cold press black seed oil OK? Yet other seed oils are not. Well, black seed oil, you're only taking one teaspoon of it. Most of seed oils, like people consume, are like 25% of all of their calories and they're an industrially processed. So you don't have the thymoconin, which is the phytonutrient, super amazing properties for healing different things, like you have in the refined corn oil in the soil, which has been so cooked, refined, chemically processed. So there's a huge difference between those two. OK, how can you get all your nutrients in one meal in the day? Well, you just have to have nutrient dense foods, like shellfish, organ meats, animal protein, like red meat, sauerkraut, avocados. It is hard to get all the nutrients, but when you do intermittent fasting, the requirements for nutrients goes down. And then you might have to substitute with supplements to get all those nutrients. Is OMED one meal a day ideal for insulin resistance? A thousand percent, yes. What's the safest way to grill and smoke meats? Don't use lighter fluid on the charcoal grill, Steve. Also, marinate your meats in like garlic thyme sage, which are protective. And then try to cook them not as unlike the majorly high heats, more of a slower cook and then basically don't eat the charred portions because they do affect us in a negative way. Statins, what to replace them with? Tokatrinals, niacin, and also natokinase. All three of those are good for that. And red yeast rice as well. Don't forget that. What's a natural solution? Well, I already mentioned that. What's a natural solution for high blood pressure? More potassium, more magnesium, and more vitamin D. Can too much D3 without K2 cause arterial calcium buildup possibly? And last question, is methylene blue safe to take? You want the pharmaceutical grade. Believe it or not, pharmaceutical grade is better than food grade. It's just higher standards. Pretty interesting. But methylene blue can react with SSRIs. So you have to be careful about that. But other than that, if you don't want the regular fish tank methylene blue, you want the good stuff that you can take in small amounts over time to help your mitochondria be more protected. Well, I'm going to vote that as fun, because that was a fire hose of questions and answers in rapid order, which was really neat. And it gives us plenty of time for our social media guests. It also gives us time to answer Chris question number four, which asks to the audience, what is the most important vitamin in preventing tooth decay? And my guess is cupcakes. But the audience disagreed. And 70% of them said that it's vitamin C. 20% say it's vitamin D. And 10% say it's D3 with good old K2. Any winners? So when we're talking about the teeth, there's a lot of things important. But the most important is vitamin K2, because of what K2 does for calcium. It stimulates proteins that actually deliver calcium into your bone. And it just so happens that your teeth are part of the bone structure. So vitamin K2 in higher amounts, I mean, I think this is why as a child, I craved butter. And I would like just seek out butter and eat a whole stick at one time. And I was trying to get K2. Of course, at the same time, I was consuming so much sugar. I didn't know any better. I would raid the neighbor's house for candy. It was pretty bad. That was the worst junk food junkie back then. All right, very good. Let's wrap up the quizzes questions by asking number five for the day. And there you go, sir. Trurofalse, the minerals in epsom salts. It's magnesium sulfate. Epsom salt baths do not penetrate the skin. Is it Trurofalse? I always wondered if a soaking in there would do anything. We'll find out from the audience. So, okay, let's go to Mary from YouTube. Can taking too much of a vitamin be a bad as deficiency in that vitamin? That's a good question. Not generally speaking, only probably if you take too much calcium or too much iron. But the problem you would have by taking too much of the other vitamins doesn't even come close to comparing of the problems of having a deficiency. And it's funny because right now in social media, you have a lot of social media medical people who are really going after vitamins and how dangerous they are and unregulated. Like the drugs are so regulated and so protected that wait a second, wait. First of all, SSRIs are still in the market. Why do they have a 65% have this post SSRI sexual dysfunction disorder? And then all of a sudden you find out that a drug now is killing all these people after years later. So, if it's so regulated, it's also highly corrupted. So it's not really as regulated as you might think. All right, very good. How about Rigsby from YouTube? Would alkaline water be bad for someone with Candida? Now, it's interesting you said that because Candida thrives in a higher pH than bacteria. It's kind of in the family of yeast fungus mold. Candida releases ammonia, which is very alkaline to survive. So if you took alkaline water, that would be a mistake. You'd want to drink more acid water or I wouldn't even do that. I would just acidify the body. But more than that, I would avoid sugar. That's what feeds and starves them off. But yeah, they thrive in an alkaline environment, whether or not. Wow, so would like citrus? Is that acid, lemon water or something? Apple cider vinegar. There we go. Okay, check some of that. Bernadette from YouTube. What are your thoughts on using portable PEMF machine for insomnia and anxiety? Do you know what that is? PEMF? Yeah, yeah. It's a current, it's a magnetic current device that is, you know, I bought one of the units. A lot of people swear by it. It didn't really do anything for my arthritis because I'm always looking for things like the stretching technique that I'm doing, which is amazing. So it might be worth it to find someone who has that therapy to test it out to see if it works for you. But it's a kind of a magnetic field therapy that some people really claim that it helps them. It didn't work on me. So that's all I have to go by. Well, okay, it's very refreshing, Dr. Bergen. Many of the audience members share this thought is you call them like it is. So you might say, hey, gee, I tried it. I thought it was good, but it's stunk. So I don't do that anymore. And that is really reassuring to all of us who want to find real answers to real questions. And speaking of questions, quiz question number five having trouble bringing that up is right there. It asks to the audience, true, false, the minerals and Epsom salt, they do not penetrate the skin. 60% of respondents say it's false and 40% say it's true. Now let's say, how do you read that? So say that it doesn't penetrate, whatever. I'll leave that up to you. What do you think? 60% false, 40% true. False is true. So let me just say it's kind of confusing. But now there's a study I found that when you take Epsom salts, there is a significant difference of both magnesium and sulfate that ends up in your body. So apparently with the heat, it does go through the body and it does get into the system and it does create cool effects, especially if you're deficient. And even with some of these hot springs, right? You get a massive healing benefits. So Epsom salts, oh my gosh, you should be taking more baths with Epsom salts because it definitely can actually create a wonderful effect on all sorts of things. And not just the magnesium, but also the sulfur too. Sulfur is super beneficial. And believe it or not, a lot of people are deficient in sulfur, which is a whole different seminar Steve, so I won't get into it. All right, we look forward to it when you do. JB Health from YouTube. I've watched your video on surgery prep, besides taking large dose of D3K2, what other cofactors would you recommend three days out from surgery? Magnesium, magnesium, magnesium, and then of course the K2 and zinc. I think that's what I would do. Okay, we can always default when you say magnesium to glycinate in less otherwise mentioned, correct? Glycinate is way better than the other forms and I have a lot of reasons for that. I've done the video, but just the fact, see you can't just take magnesium metal, like a magnesium by itself. It's called elemental magnesium, because as soon as you take that, it'll interact in a very negative way with your stomach acid and you will not feel very good. So they have to combine magnesium with a carrier. So sometimes they'll use oxides, sometimes they'll use a toroid and then might use glycine and they call it glycinate. Okay, that's a amino acid or citrate. But then, but citrate gives you no extra benefits and also it doesn't really, it doesn't get absorbed as much as glycinate. It's cheaper, but it doesn't give you the benefits of glycine, which most people are deficient in. It will help your sleep, it helps collagen, it helps increase dopa. So that's why I'm recommending it, because there's so many advantages. All right, what would you recommend for MSM from YouTube who says what's the best natural remedy for a UTI and an elderly male? I would do, there's a couple, couple things, believe it or not, the methylene blue works really good. And if you can compound that with a little infrared light over your bladder area, apparently it works even better. That's called photo modulation. But I think unsweetened organic cranberry juice might be beneficial. But the icing on the cake for that would be to take oregano oil and you can get them in little pearls to start taking them and that way they can selectively destroy the microbes that are in there, but not kill the good guys. All right, good luck with that, sir. We hope that helps. Let's get one more question in for the day. Latest from YouTube is the handle. Can you please tell me how to heal a Achilles' Injury without having surgery? Doesn't say whether it's severed or whatever. Yeah, collagen with vitamin C. I don't know how bad it is. If it's been repaired or it's just a tear or it's just sore or frayed, whatever. Or let's say you're recovering and there's scar tissue and things like that. You wanna definitely apply this thing I talked about earlier it's called PAILS and rails, P-A-I-L-S and rails, R-A-I-L-S. And just search on YouTube, ankle, okay? And then you can do that on the ankle. You'll probably have to do some extension so you're not overdoing it, but it's wonderful for restoring adhesion, joints that have adhesion, scar tissue, arthritis, stiffness and I'm gonna be doing a series of techniques, but I'm gonna simplify it for everyone because it's a little complex. So I'm gonna make it super simple. But I don't know the stage of damage in your Achilles, but you definitely, a lot of people have damage like scar tissue and you wanna keep that thing stretched or it'll tighten up and affect your walking and then it affects the opposite side and all of a sudden you get knee pain on the opposite side and hip pain on the right side. So there's a whole bunch of things you need to work on with that. All right, very good. Well, we always wanna thank the audience for both their questions and answers. You guys make the show. So thanks for participating. Any final words, doc? I have no final words of wisdom, but thank you very much. I will see you next week, same time.
