thank you

all right welcome back everyone we are

here with another another show to answer

your questions uh anything pertaining to

keto of intermittent fasting Health

Nutrition anything that I say is

definitely not meant to replace

um any type of synthetic uh medications

um so just uh

check with your doctor before

implementing any of the things we’re

going to talk about so I guess we have a

huge lineup uh so ask your questions and

we’ll try to get to as many as we can

indeed and there’s evidence of that uh

let’s go to Jay from YouTube please

discuss the effects of Warfarin on the

body and what we can do to correct blood

viscosity naturally

well it blocks vitamin K1 so it um

it thins the blood because vitamin K1 is

something that coagulates and um

so

um you know people are given this for

risk for heart attacks because they have

maybe heart attack or some type of

arrhythmia problem or atrial fib and now

they have to keep the body from clotting

naturally

uh too much and so

um the problem is that you’ve there’s so

many foods you can’t eat you can do the

yellow maybe red orange type vegetables

but how do you get your

phytonutrients if you can’t do these

leafy greens that you really need it’s

really hard so there are some natural

things to take to thin the blood like

for example garlic is one

um but there’s many others as well but

in fish oils can help and also vitamin E

in the form of tocatrinals so these are

things that can naturally thin the blood

and so um

of course check with your doctor before

Switching gears but um I think they have

some new medications now that you can

still consume vitamin K because there’s

a different mechanism I don’t know too

much about it but you might want to

investigate that indeed okay Jay thank

you Doc and let’s the very first person

today was Laura from YouTube I just

watched your video on ADHD I’m taking

your electrolyte powder dmae

binfhotamine how many scoops of your

powder should I take daily I’m also on

keto and iaf she is just fully involved

yeah it really depends on what you’re

trying to achieve and of course some you

know it’s an enhancement to

um all your vegetables that you’re

trying to get the potassium up

um but you can take you know

um one two maybe three

um but for certain people that are

trying to deal with something maybe

really they need to spike up their

potassium

um let’s say they have gout for example

maybe they do four

um but any extra potassium your body

doesn’t need it gets rid of unless you

have a stage five kidney problem which

is very rare in which case you have to

check with your doctor but

um

potassium is there’s a lot to talk about

with that but it’s a it’s the most

important mineral

um out of all the minerals and and maybe

we’ll chat about it uh when we talked

about some of the questions today all

right very good well uh just as evidence

of how many people just heard uh your

discussion on that we’d like to say good

morning to all our viewers joining us

thoughts and prayers with all that

terrible thing that’s gone on there we

pray for them daily and donations are

available to everybody to help that

terrible crisis and all across these

United States of America so thanks

everybody all around the world for

joining amazing and speaking of joining

we’ve also got what we call the green

room and that incorporates certain

people and there’s one nice guy from

Kentucky named Willie And Willie

um is sort of driving around making sure

that Kentucky college campus is safe and

and uh and so on so Willie uh why don’t

we get you up uh hang on just a second

that didn’t work okay Willie you’re on

the air with Dr Burr go ahead with your

one question please okay can you hear me

perfectly okay all right I have a

question my wife had uh gastric sleeve

about three and a half years ago okay

she’s had trouble with her stomach

burning and a lot of nausea and so she

goes back and they tell her that they

run a scope and they said there’s maybe

some bowel in the stomach so there’s

kidneys there’s a gallstones in the

gallbladder so the gallbladder she had

the gallbladder taken out

right and there’s no it didn’t get any

better so they’re still nausea they’re

still burning and I I do your products I

do intermittent fasting I do apple cider

vinegar I do I’ve lost about 50 pounds

doing it right so she lost 100 during

that what she had done so I’m trying to

incorporate my

to her and when I give her the the stuff

the vitamins and things like she still

gets very nausea like she doesn’t even

want to eat she’s so nauseated and so I

still want her to get the nutrients in

the things but it’s hard I don’t

understand what to do is there any way

you could give me some good advice

yeah that’s a it’s a little difficult

because when you get this sleeve you

alter the mechanics of this digestive

system and this uh first part of the

small intestine in the stomach

so um a couple things probably what’s

happening is she’s getting um

this backup of bile which can

regurgitate and it can just basically

feel just like an acid reflux but it’s a

bile reflux that comes all the way up

into the esophagus and it’s a very uh

potent detergent that can actually

irritate

um your esophagus so

um there’s a couple things I would do

um I would do watch try to find my video

on the gallbladder flushing just to

manually massage the area underneath the

ribcage on both sides because

that’s what I recommend for hiatal

hernia and it’ll just create uh some

relief and uh

help the flow of things kind of go

through that area

but I think she’s going to need a little

bit and you start off with a little bit

of betaine hydrochloride before sheets

and then maybe a little gallbladder

formula after sheets just to help both

on the acid and then the bile

um

what happens is there’s a high risk of

getting um

deficiencies of especially like B12 when

you have this

this um surgery

um and so

you know he I think she’s going to have

to kind of find some way to get these

nutrition uh factors in without creating

the nausea but the nausea is probably

coming because of the gallbladder she

doesn’t have a gallbladder so now she

just has one tube and it just drains and

trickles through

but she’s always going to be deficient

because she can’t concentrate the bile

so she’s probably experiencing bile

deficiency symptoms that you’re going to

have to just cope with and try to get

the right amounts

um but there’s um

you know a lot of us side issues with

when you get that surgery but you can

still do fine but I have several videos

on it um

but of course um you know she has a lot

of um

probably other things that you didn’t

tell me that would help me to figure

things out but that’s what I would do

initially with what you just told me

um it’s going to be trial and error but

sounds to me that uh oh tud cup would be

probably an important one to at least

stop the regurgitation of the bile

because it’s going to thin the bile and

allow it to go through these ducts a lot

easier so

um I would I would do that

okay so that uh as far as like her sugar

like does that have anything to do with

like the sugar being high like in the

morning time because she has that

problem as well well that’s because she

has probably very severe insulin

resistance and it’s not because she’s

eating sugar it’s just that her body’s

making sugar because of this insulin

resistance just hasn’t been corrected

yet so I think with time it’s going to

be corrected and there’s things that you

can do to speed it up like apple cider

vinegar with water berberine cinnamon

chromium things like that but um

definitely watch

um

this video that I’m going to release on

insulin coming up because I think it’ll

explain a lot and especially I talk

about the production of new glucose

called gluconeogenesis for those people

that have bad insulin resistance and

she’ll get some information on that as

well that’s great well listen Willie

thank you so much and we hope that

you’ll get back with us and let us know

uh how all that goes and we wish your

wife very well on her pursuit of Greater

health so uh let’s see who are we going

to move on to now let’s go back to the

internet Sunrise from Facebook how do

you get rid of calcium deposits does

that make sense

yeah it depends where it is I mean is it

in the joints is it in the arteries

um the the main thing that comes to mind

well there’s two things one is vitamin

K2

so

um vitamin K2 helps Drive the calcium

back into the bone and out of the

arteries and out of the joints and uh

the best source out of all the sources

uh

um would be of course NATO but that’s

pretty disgusting unless you have a

taste for it and you live in you know

Asia and you can do that fermented

soybean but

for all of us that can’t eat that

um

like cheese is a really good source like

raw milk cheese fatty cheese and Munster

cheese if you can get it from France has

the highest amount but you’re going to

get sufficient amounts in hard cheeses

and soft cheeses

of course the American cheese is not

going to have it in there so you can

pretty much I don’t even think you can

call American cheese cheese but you can

call it a cheese product because I think

it has less than 50 percent of it cheese

yeah don’t get me started on that Steve

all right very good well I’m going to

start you what looks to be like a

medical exam question so here it is Mary

from YouTube my dad used Knight used to

use nitrogly glycerin pills back in the

day my doctor says I have

hyperlipidemia and need to take a Statin

I’m taking Citrus Bergamot instead my

cholesterol is at 290 my triglycerides

are at 88 HDL 72 LDL is 204 and my A1C

is 5.5 should I be on statins there’s a

mouthful

there’s some natural things that you can

do for sure vitamin or vitamin B3 in the

form of niacin would be very potent

um the other thing would be very potent

that acts like Statin but with I think

less side effects is the red yeast

extract

very very beneficial you can also do

NATO kinase which will also help lower

your cholesterol and even sometimes the

Tucka can do it as well but

you know I’m gonna release a video on

something called familial hyper

cholesterol anemia which is a

cholesterol problem that’s genetic and

what to do and and actually this is

probably part of the questions so I’m

going to just zip it right at that point

and just we’ll talk more about it in a

little bit okay very good speaking of

question here’s our first true falser of

the day doc

okay true or false high blood insulin

which is called hyperinsulinemia

is really a condition

of an insulin deficiency

okay so is that true or false audience I

know they’ll be back on that in two

seconds

let’s see Richard from Facebook again

what the best way to uh re-feed that’s

an interesting way of putting it coming

off a 30-day fast good for you Richard

do it slow very slow with tiny bounce of

food not any

carbohydrates in any concentrated form

because that can create a a problem with

potassium

um but you want to do just a little bit

a little bit of maybe a little bit of um

salad or a little bit of uh

um maybe some an avocado or maybe an egg

and then wait for a couple hours and

have a little bit more and then wait for

a little bit and have a little bit more

as you ease into this over three days

because

um your system has been adapted to

um not eating so you don’t want to

overdo it because you can create a an

imbalance

all right well on the other hand it’s

free French fry Friday at McDonald’s so

um

um you know you might want to really

yeah might want to go with the medium

instead of a large that’s good no yeah

all right very good let’s see now

Harley dog from Facebook shingles on my

face for a year how do I get rid of that

I understand that’s awful

yeah

I did several videos on that I would

watch the latest version to get the full

scoop on what you can do

um with various remedies but um you got

to realize that shingles virus started

out as a chickenpox virus

okay and um it comes out later in life

out of remission

um during stress events

especially like losses or emotional

stress so that being said you have to do

everything you can

to knock out that stressful situation

and um

then you’re going to see Improvement but

it’s kind of what happens when you have

this Spike of cortisol

it paralyzes the immune system and

allows for these viruses to come out of

remission and kind of kick you when

you’re down

so it’s all about just strengthening the

immune system and then getting your

assistant to a point where

um it can keep that virus in remission

foreign

horse that’s an interesting name from

YouTube I have a friend that just had

surgery to remove polyps from the

bladder from the bladder interesting

they keep coming back what should they

do is he maybe the intestine there’s a

bladder polyp such a thing

it could be it could be in the uh

urinary bladder too

so I think um what I would do

um

polyps are kind of like

usually your body is trying to

encapsulate something to protect

something and um yeah I would go back to

the basics are you eating the healthy

version of Keto are you doing things to

increase your detoxification like

cruciferous vegetables some people as

I’m doing some like a deep dive in some

of this genetic stuff

um have very um

big problems with their detox genes and

they tend to hold poisons longer and

then they could you know develop cysts

and even polyps more frequently but

polyps could also you know very rarely

kind of a form of a tumor could be

benign

um it could be malignant but those are

very rare

so um the best thing to do is to go back

to the basics and then eat as if you’re

preventing cancer

um because I think it’s illegal to cure

cancer in in the United States at least

is from my knowledge so you don’t want

to do that but if you can prevent it

that’s even better very good it would

appear Helena from Ireland on YouTube

I’m 50 and have menopause symptoms what

are your views on bioidentical hormone

creams

it comes with the package anytime you

take um hormones you

you know it’s like why do you um why

isn’t your gland making the hormones and

you say well I’m just age right well

shouldn’t your body

um make enough I like shouldn’t the

backup organs like the adrenals take

over and make enough if they’re strong

enough but when you start taking

hormones and you bypass your own

glandular production

then the clients don’t have to produce

as much so then you become more and more

dependent on those hormones which give

you another problem now you’re you’re

constantly having to deal with hormones

so what would wouldn’t a better approach

be to strengthen the gland like I’m

talking about the adrenal gland with

maybe a desiccated adrenal support or an

adaptogen like ashwagandha that you can

actually support that adrenal

um to then get your gland to produce

more and also all these sex hormones

that are produced after especially after

menopause that are dependent on the

adrenals

um need this raw material which is from

cholesterol so definitely do not start

to go on a low-fat diet if you’re going

through menopause

all right very good now listen I want to

remind everybody that in addition to

YouTube you can go to this great free

app for Android uh and on uh Mac systems

OS so get that for a quick reference to

all the great videos that Dr Berg has

mentioned and of course drberg.com will

lead you through all of his programs and

so on which millions of people and Steve

I just want to um sometimes I like I if

I find a good product

I will talk about it promote it I’m not

affiliated with these two products I

want to recommend but I just stumbled on

two products and I’d mentioned one last

week but this is a pretty good one that

I’d like I’m going to tell you why it’s

the it’s a company called hom

okay if you can see that right there huh

we can hom House of macadamia

dipped in chocolate what you know what I

like about this one

is um these little like treats for like

a dessert it doesn’t have all the extra

like

garbage that you see it’s like chocolate

coating okay cocoa butter

erythritol cocoa powder chicory root

um

and then sunflower lecithin and sea salt

that’s it and they’re not the rancid

macadamia nuts that you usually find so

I like those as a I definitely would

recommend that um product as a kind of a

dessert and again I’m not getting any

Kickbacks on this and then the other one

the way I was looking at is this row

these ROM sticks right here

these are actually pork sticks if you

can see them and you know

when you get fermented sausage or meat

it always comes with a lot of sugar and

so one of the ingredients for this

because I was really impressed with how

they treat their animals and how they

raise these pigs and um

like pasture raised is actually quite

fascinating but you know there’s a

little tiny bit of sugar so I actually

just reached it I said couldn’t you just

make these without sugar and then they

would be even better and the problem is

when you try to ferment something you

have to feed the microbes something some

carbohydrate so they add a little tiny

bit of carb and then I says well why

don’t you just do the test and see and

tell me how much sugar is in there they

just sent me the report it’s less than

one gram and I’m like wow that’s cool

so this has a very tiny tiny tiny bit

just to feed because the microbes eat

most of it and there’s just a tiny bit

left so you’re talking about like when

you’re doing Keto

um a maximum of not going over 50 grams

we’re talking about something that has

0.5 grams

of sugar so that’s so insignificant I

think it’ll be okay to consume as a in

addition to you know whatever Keto Plan

you’re doing but the Rome sticks uh it’s

another good company I like the way that

they

their Farms that’s the most important

thing and they’re very transparent so

it’s a little shout out to that company

well it’s incredible doc I was bragging

to those in the green room I said you

know Dr Berg is not prejudiced in any

one sort of approach to health or the

other Western medicine is great this

that and the other uh but no but you you

look to what works and does an enormous

amount of study to find out the things

that work and don’t and there’s plenty

of evidence so there’s proof of it he’s

not kicking a gram of sugar there or

whatever and I think that’s great and I

really I think everyone is in for the

ethical treatment of animals they’re

delicious but they should be treated

with respect so that’s great to know

that that product is aiming for that

okay let’s see I bet we’ve got an answer

to one of our questions and we do uh

quiz question number one it’s a true

falser and it asked high blood insulin

hyper and salemia I didn’t say that

right but you can do it for us but

really a condition of insulin deficiency

okay and

um with that 55 percent of our

respondents say it’s true in the balance

which is 45 say ah it’s false

this is a very interesting video I’ll

release on this topic but

um there’s a lot of conflicting

information in in and confusion in this

area of insulin because on one hand

bodybuilders use it as a way to build

their muscles

um insulin is even an anti-inflammatory

yes it’s true they use as a nasal spray

to help you with prevent um dementia so

if insulin does all these wonderful

things

even as an

um antioxidant why is it considered so

bad well it’s because when you increase

the insulin you develop

insulin resistance and that’s really the

missing understanding of this insulin

resistance Factor where the receptors

are actually the brain of this whole

thing and you start blocking The

receptors you’re not getting

insulin and despite how much you have so

the more you have the more resistance

because of this mechanism this feedback

loop the thermostat is set at exactly at

70 degrees

so now what happens is the this

condition is all those symptoms of this

terrible condition is really because you

can’t absorb it there’s not enough in

the cell so here you’re starving of

insulin yet you have all this insulin in

the rest of the body that can’t be

utilized

um so it’s a really interesting

topic and when you watch the video that

I released on this

boy everything will make sense

everything will make sense all right

very good Natalie this is an oft asked

question what’s the best time to take

supplements during omad

I’m going to actually produce another

video on this because um

with omad you’re not eating right so do

you eat with meals well you’re not

you’re just eat them on an empty stomach

and you’re like well am I going to get

the full absorption maybe not 100 with

some of the fat soluble ones but you’ll

you’ll get enough

um you know the only thing I would

recommend if you’re doing the

electrolyte powder

um probably don’t take that in the later

part of the day because it can act as a

you know a fluid release situation and

you’ll be up you’re up at night

urinating too much so take that in the

early part of the day and then the other

ones just take when it’s convenient

because

you don’t have food this is one of the

reasons why quite a few of my products

have contained in there

um like coconut oil or MCT oil to

actually

help the absorption of this vitamin D or

K2 and I have some other other ones as

well so you can do it when you’re

fasting

all right very good so here’s sort of

off in The Fringe question I like pit

Muller from YouTube is his handle is

mozzarella from Buffalo’s better for you

than standard forms of mozzarella

you know I think it really would depend

on

you with the cheese you really have to

find out

um where it’s produced uh it’s there are

companies in America that produce decent

trees but

hands down Europe it has the best cheese

um in different parts of the world so

and they do raw and so you really have

to there’s there’s some amazing

um

traditional authentic ways of producing

cheese that have been kept standard for

for

hundreds of years

um but in America we do shortcuts with

the the parmesan cheese and and I don’t

know about uh Buffalo mozzarella at all

but I do know there’s different parts of

like Italy and France that just focus on

this one type of cheese and when I did

the tours I was just so thoroughly

impressed with how they do it and the

quality and the pride that they take so

the best thing is to you know be able to

find that some transparency which is not

really

easy to find like even if you eat

if you want to buy some chicken for

example wouldn’t it be nice if the farm

actually had videos of their farm so you

can see their chickens there are certain

companies this might be hard to believe

that don’t want you to see how they

raise these chickens I know that’s hard

to believe but you can’t see what they

do and you probably don’t want to see

but um I’m definitely um

uh just like um you know promoting

Farmers that do a good job and they um

we want to support those those people to

because they’re doing the hard work and

they really care about the animals so

that’s really important oh that’s

terrific okay

botama or botama from Facebook I have

fibroids that bleed a lot I’ve been

taking your supplements but they have

moved from my uterus to my cervix poor

thing help

well they’re on their way out right you

want um to actually

um help reduce

those problems I would recommend

increasing not only cruciferous but a

product called dim which is a

concentrated

cruciferous product that can help you

sulforaphane is in the broccoli Sprouts

microgreens are really good for that

condition and then just make sure that

you want to avoid anything that could

stir up the growth of that those issues

so um avoid Dairy okay the cheese that I

just talked about that I just

recommended and then also any soy

products of course you’re not doing soy

if you’re on my program and then doing a

periodic prolonged fasting

that’s what I would do okay very good

well another gentleman Jason from Tampa

Florida he and I were sort of examining

each other in the green room and decided

that both of us were Model handsome and

as evidence of that we’re going to bring

them up right now look at uh Jason

uh live around the world Jason go here

with your one question for Dr bird

absolutely uh yes

absolutely great by the way on a four to

five hour feeding window

um considering narrowing it even more uh

but it’s just there’s just a lot of

conflicting information so I want to see

if I can clarify some of that

um first of all I realized that I was

breaking my fast a little bit with these

little true lemon packets I don’t know

if you can see them uh but yeah it

contains like a small amount of cane

sugar I just didn’t even realize I’ve

been using them for so long only three

grams but still

um so it’s about 10 calories and I was

accidentally breaking fast but you know

I’m just kind of wondering like first of

all is how much does that really matter

I hear David Sinclair always talking

about like oh I’m snacking on nuts while

I’m fasting so I’m like well I don’t get

that but

um you know overall my goal is you know

I want to continue to build muscle in

the gym

um you know that’s important for me but

you know more important is obviously to

prioritize My Health and Longevity like

if it’s smaller muscles and I’m going to

live longer and be healthier I’m cool

with that

um so I think omad’s good but it’s just

hard because any trainer nutritionist

the people I train with are like as soon

as you get home like pound a bunch of

food you know eat protein but I’m

working out at 6 a.m and I’m feeling

great all day not breaking fast until 3

4 P.M sometimes

um so but then I’m practically in one

sitting consuming all my calories all my

protein all my supplements you know 2

000 calories and fatty foods and it’s my

body really able to process all this

kind of like what you were saying

earlier in the show about like am I

absorbing these supplements you know

well in that fashion or do you think I

need to maybe adjust my feeding schedule

somewhat or or is this case is omad not

best for me just any opinion you have

would be great yeah I think you’re kind

of in my boat too because I um I

definitely need to get the calories up

to prevent the weight loss and I’d like

to do the long fasting I like to do one

meal a day but it’s really hard to

consume you know 3 000 calories in one

meal or 3 500 calories so one thing you

might want to do is there’s two things

that typically don’t increase insulin as

much as other things and that would be

fat and fiber and they’re both um so so

let’s say for example

you do

um you eat at six whatever or let’s say

you eat at five

and you have a lot of your protein your

fat and then maybe wait an hour

maybe even two and then do your huge

salad with the olive oil so that’s kind

of what I do so it’s kind of like a one

and a half meal a day that I can because

I I just can’t do

10 cups of salad and all the protein and

all the fat in one meal I just can’t do

that

um so some people can do that because

they have a super strong stomach and

digestive system but I kind of break it

down so I’m almost doing one meal a day

but

with minimal damage because of the uh

there’s no spike in uh I mean hardly any

with her salad you know you’re not going

to spike that and then of course you’re

working out so you want to hit the um

the volume and the uh intensity

um pretty hard to keep the muscles in

check but then really make sure that

your um your recovery time is good there

is some this DNA testing is fascinating

as I’m getting into it they even have

reports on

exercise based on your DNA which I I

kind of like it but you can indirectly

find out what your pattern is just by

trying different things so for example

um I do very well with high intensity

power exercise but not with endurance so

if I go too long with my hit workouts

I have so much inflammation that could

last for for way too long so with you

you might just want to try different

things and see what works good and so

you want to work out to the point where

you do get sore the next day so your

muscles are actively growing in that

recovery phase

um and then just focus on the quality of

those those calories but I guess since

you’re dealing with um muscle

preservation uh and also trying to get

as much health as possible I would do

like a one and a half uh meal a day

okay and were these true lemon packets

breaking my fast to some degree I I

think it’s much better to just get just

get lemon juice or a lemon because yeah

um I I don’t I don’t I wouldn’t I don’t

like any sugar

um even if it’s three grams but I mean I

could see a like a half of a gram a half

of a gram you know that’s right you were

talking now we’re talking with a real

insignificant and this would be part of

the meal not during fasting but when you

do fasting and you have sugar

um I I don’t like that because because

what knocks you out of the benefit of

like autophagy is insulin so now we’re

raising insulin to some degree

um it’s not large but it’s still why why

even mess around if you don’t have to

yep makes sense okay that’s terrific now

back to our who’s more handsome contest

between me and Jason he’s younger but I

have better lighting so I think that uh

that knocks him out uh knocks him out of

the park okay thanks for coming on uh

Jason love to hear back from you uh with

all your great

um

you know

forward moving in your health so let’s

uh let’s see what we have here I think

we asked another

question did I not bring the next

question up maybe I didn’t let’s look

here uh try that one doc true false sir

yeah this is a new question okay so true

or false a potassium deficiency can

trigger diabetes

is it true or false

all right folks dig into that and let’s

go back to social media

John from YouTube do you have

recommendations for supplements and diet

to address early stage prostate cancer

I’m sorry John

well um the best most powerful thing you

could do right now is to start doing

fasting

start doing fasting immediately

um there’s a lot out there other things

to do there’s a protocol if you watch my

latest video there’s a protocol

nutritional products I do not sell any

of those you could but we we’ve done

studies I’ve actually participated in

sponsored a study in Europe and with

huge success with this protocol and I

explained why it would help you but the

periodic fasting prolonged fasting is

going to be the most potent thing that

you can do

um with this

um

so there’s one more little factor I want

to bring up regarding the cancer there

are people who get rid of their cancer

and all of a sudden it comes back and

then they always ask them well what did

you change oh I didn’t change any of my

diet it’s the same thing

um I said have you been through any

stress and then boom yes massive stress

so the stress will definitely can

reactivate certain types of cancer

because what it does to the immune

system so an another another important

lesson is to learn from other people

having problems so you can avoid that

and really work on your um stress factor

all right that’s terrific okay let’s go

to uh Beth from Facebook which k2d3 uh

do you recommend I can imagine can K2

create blood clots

no no K2 doesn’t create blood clots

um

uh K1 does it doesn’t create blood clots

it just there’s you know people are like

thinking well well if K1 clots then I

don’t want to get clots so I won’t eat

no no it’s going to get to a certain

point it’s going to give you normal

clotting because you don’t want to bleed

internally if you have a damaged organ

something like that so K1 is like really

important as a survival mechanism K2 has

everything to do with um

channeling calcium

but you can also get a lot of energy

from K2 as well because it helps the

mitochondria

um

so I think I answered that there might

have been more to that question but um

all right very good well here’s an

important uh announcement this is from

Romania Cipher from Romania on YouTube

our national food is garlic apparently

it keeps the vampires away and you know

I haven’t heard of any vampire activity

in Romania at all today so you may have

a point there so thank you cypher he

might have something there yeah so

that’s terrific let’s see uh Rosalinda

from YouTube can I drink hibiscus tea

while on high blood pressure meds

I think I think it probably would help

you because uh hibiscus tea actually can

help lower your blood sugars which could

be triggering your

um high blood pressure

so you should check that out okay very

good how far John from Facebook please

do more videos on treating high

cholesterol which supplements would you

recommend to treat it assuming you don’t

have videos on that well I I do

um I am releasing more videos on the

topic you really need to do an advanced

lipid profile to look at the particle

size okay and you’ll see two different

particle sizes you’ll see one which is a

small dense SD LDL and then you’ll see

another one

um large buoyant lb LDL and the one that

you want more of is the large buoyant

LDL the small dense one um has

everything to do with your carbohydrate

if you’re doing too too much carb and

refined sugars and things like that but

if you do keto

think about this you’re mobilizing a lot

of cholesterol

this lipo

protein is there to transport this fat

and so you know there’s a lot of false

information in this area that uh but I’m

going to try to really clarify in this

video which I think you’re going to like

because it’s another one of those uh

things that everyone knows for a fact

but then

hmm there’s uh actually not much data to

show that it’s true

very good let’s see uh this is another

question that’s frequently Asked Rhonda

from YouTube my gallbladder has been

ripped out she said removed do I need

bile salts and your gallbladder formula

and if so how much

yeah in addition you need to get in

another gallbladder you can get them in

various places they come in different

materials and I’m being very sarcastic

yeah you want to get um

a good product that can help support the

bile that you’re missing now how do you

know you that you took too much well if

you get

um

diarrhea okay that would be indication

that you don’t need any more bile okay

um how do you know if you need more

well constipation would tell you if you

have constipation you need more bile

salts so that’s just a real simple thing

to kind of determine

um maybe the dosage or or if you need it

or not some people have

um even after surgery they have a nice

drainage and they have enough

um but there’s a good portion of people

that don’t have enough because they

don’t have that concentration

unfortunately

okay very good let’s see quiz question

number two and by the way viewers wanted

to know what was the specific answer to

quiz question number one true or false

and I erased them as I go by so I don’t

even remember what it was do you recall

what the first question was

well I think Jason remembers

um

do you remember the first question Jason

um

I don’t remember

all right uh I I think it has to do with

um

can a potassium deficiency

cause diabetes

we never answered that did we Steve well

I’m ashamed if we didn’t I remember

giving out the answer to number one

let’s see I’m going to scroll back here

uh and there should be some little music

in the background ding dong ding dong

anyway it did we did 55 said it was true

and 45 said it was false so at least we

got answers and we did announce that and

I remember you chatting about it so uh

Carrie would you please type that back

in if you recall it I promise not to

erase these things as I go along in the

future but okay so so let’s just let’s

just cover it again okay if we if we

if we did it already then then it’s

really we’re gonna give you more

information about this but potassium

um I don’t think we covered it but um

here’s the thing with potassium

um

potassium is needed

to um protect your kidneys and also

potassium is intimately involved in the

storage of the glucose

but

a really big cause of diabetes is when

someone gets on these thiazide diuretics

all of a sudden they have this um to get

this diabetes

but when you take the ACE inhibitors

sometimes you actually

um it’s protective against diabetes so

that’s interesting so why is that what’s

the difference between those two

medications for blood pressure one uh

creates a the thighs that creates a

deficiency of potassium

and the other one increases the

potassium retention

so

that’s interesting and potassium has a

huge effect on insulin so if you don’t

have enough potassium you can’t generate

enough insulin so if you don’t have

enough insulin guess what you’re going

to have a lot of blood sugar going on so

that’s diabetes

so it’s really really

um interesting to look at this from that

point of view because

wow if that’s true then why don’t you

just take some potassium for your

diabetes and see what happens or or your

blood pressure and see what happens and

I do find a lot of people get rid of

their blood pressure I mean if you’re

taking a medication like ACE inhibitors

and the primary mode of function is just

helping with potassium I like bypass the

medication and take the potassium and

see what happens

I mean just I don’t know if it’s just me

but it just sounds very logical

um but um yeah so it is true when you’re

low in potassium you can generate um

um more glucose in the blood because you

don’t have that that insulin to control

it anymore unfortunately okay very good

well by the way I’m back on track so

that was quiz question number two and 90

say it’s true and ten percent say it’s

false uh and even though Jason was of

literally no help at all I discovered

that I I have the email and here’s the

first question true false or high blood

insulin hyperinsulimia if I said that

right is really a condition of insulin

deficiency yeah

yeah we covered and I covered that yeah

I think I covered that

um

and that is uh when you have that

remember I talked about like um it has

everything to do with um the receptor

being the brain and that really controls

the amount of insulin that’s penetrates

into the body

so um when you get this high level of

insulin the blood you’re really creating

a deficiency because you’re creating

this resistance

so that is

the problem it’s kind of like um

let’s say you want to get married right

and um you want to get your message

across to your future spouse right and

you start yelling at her and you’re

really getting your message across but

you’re you’re creating resistance on the

other side

you’re not going to end up getting

married because she’s going to think

you’re very weird so I guess that would

be a kind of a weird analogy to what I

just said okay Bachelors keep that in

mind here’s the next question

all right what is the most common

symptom of a pancreatic enzyme

deficiency

okay and we promised to keep track of

that question

let’s see let’s go back to the green

room and in this case we’ve got a repeat

customer Jesse from Worcester if I said

that right I’m very proud when I get

that weird Town name right uh did I say

it right Jesse

you did very good I think we can hear

you perfectly wow we came through

finally

all right um thanks for having me on

again

um so my question last last week was

about H pylori

um but not H by Lori directly about

three and a half years ago I started

waking up with little headaches and I

first I started getting a lot of GERD

symptoms burping very gassy

um and then I started having stomach

pains and then I started waking up with

headaches

um and then I coughed up blood and then

tested for h pylori so then then it

turned into

um waking up gasping choking and then I

tested positive for sleep apnea I was

about 215 pounds and in very good shape

then and then

um I ended up uh

um suffering with that with the Sleep

issue ever since

um and my weight has fluctuated and I

also tested for dysbiosis recently

um and I got reinfected with H pylori

after eradicating it and I still have

sleep issues now I I use a CPAP

um so my question was I never had sleep

issues until I got H pylori

um waking up tired exhausted I know I

have gastritis now

um and like I said I had dysbiosis on a

very high level

um

so the question I guess would be

can

can H pylori induce some sort of sleep

apnea

um yeah yeah the connection with that is

because there’s two common symptoms of a

B12 deficiency weakness and also

difficulty breathing which could

definitely be sleep apnea for sure and

what is the relationship between the

stomach can be 12 well it’s huge if you

have H pylori we know the pH is not

right in your stomach and we also know

that you’re probably having a heck of a

Time absorbing B12

which can then also throw off your whole

gut there’s a huge connection with that

because B12 actually helps the diversity

of these microbes they actually feed

they actually eat B12 too so um I think

a good solution for you to start to take

um not just work on the stomach but take

methylcobolamine the um a better form of

a natural form of B12 that can help you

restore your breathing

um because it’s it controls the nervous

system and the brain and uh the the also

the respiratory centers in the brain

so I think that’ll actually as you’ll

start breathing better and you may like

many other people

you know might have some genetic uh

variation that doesn’t allow you to

absorb B12 so I think that would be

something that I would I would try

without any testing because

it’s inexpensive and you can just see

really quickly if that doesn’t solve it

and of course yeah you can then add a

probiotic and things like that but what

happens with this H pylori is a little

sneaky guy it tends to increase the

ammonia levels and ammonia is very very

alkaline so it’s gonna to survive it

starts to really mess up your pH of your

stomach to go up very high and so now

you’re like have a hard time digesting

and that can create all sorts of issues

down chain from in the small intestine

the large intestine so um you know

definitely if you can take betaine

hydrochloride do it because we want to

acidify the stomach so we can get rid of

that and also sulforaphane as the from

the micro greens might be very helpful

as well

to broccoli broccoli micro greens okay

all right

go ahead Jesse just one more we’re

running a little bit of time but quickly

so treating all of that stuff you think

could keep because when I do lay down

and I go to sleep the CPAP seems to help

on some days and I’ve noticed recently

that I started introducing aloe vera

that has helped somewhat like lower the

uh

um the amount of apnea is per hour uh

but

like I said I never had any breathing or

sleeping issues before having H pylori

now it’s been a nightmare for two and a

half years but I had a little remission

when I went on a pretty alkaline uh

plant-based diet for about a month

um but then I got that’s when I got

Ridge I got uh

uh H pylori again because I got food

poisoning in a foreign country yeah see

it’s see here’s the thing

um without the right pH of your stomach

you’re not going to tolerate

um animal meat very well

so naturally you know you do more

plant-based but then the problem is it

it makes things more alkaline and now we

don’t have that acidic stomach to kill

off the microbes to keep everything in

check

um so it’s a really um Balancing Act uh

between the two you might want to have a

little bit of Animal product with the

betaine hydrochloride like a lot of it

like maybe even nine tablets and then

um do some of the other things to

restore

um

the balance but uh I guess it’s one of

those things you’re going to have to try

something and see if it doesn’t work

because there’s so many other factors

involved great okay listen Jesse thanks

so much and keep keep us posted on your

progress I’ve been a little behind on

the questions but the audience has

picked it up for us so the third

question is what’s the most common

symptom of pancreatic enzyme deficiency

and 68 of our respondents say burping or

excessive gas 22 say pain or fatigue and

ten percent say heartburn or

constipation so doc do we have any

winners today well all of you are

correct

um but it’s basically undigested uh

usually you see unadjusted fat in the

stool Seattle Rhea it’s called and you

have this um stool that floats and it

has a very bad odor

um because what happens is like you

don’t have those enzymes to break down

the fats so we have all this undigested

fat that kind of goes down there it just

doesn’t get digested so it creates a lot

of problems you see that with

pancreatitis you see that with a lot of

pancreatic issues but I’m going to do a

complete video on that so you get

the full knowledge of what happens in

the stomach if you don’t have the enzyme

like uh pepsin pepsin and then also

the large intestine the small intestine

too we’ll talk about that all right very

good here’s the next question then we’re

going to Mary and Huntington Beach so uh

there it is Doc

okay why would you not want to consume

salad or vegetables when you have sibo

small intestinal bacterial overgrowth

all right climb on that and Mary I’m

glad we got you back you said it

disappeared for a while but here you are

on with Dr Berg if you’re unmuted go

ahead with your question

hear me we can yes perfectly oh okay

yeah I had internet issues all of a

sudden so I got you back all right

um good morning Dr Berg I’m honored to

meet you today thank you so much for

sharing your Stellar information to me

and all the millions of people in this

world to take control of our health

thank you so much okay welcome yeah I’m

so honored to meet you okay um let’s see

I just want to say that uh

where I wrote this down Okay

um

okay the first thing I learned from when

I found you about two and a half years

ago just thankfully think right before

covid

and the first thing that I learned was

that the health concerns for um

long term taking long-term medications

okay so you know you go to the doctor

you take what you need to take and but

it’s the long term okay so first thing I

did because I was on 10 years of anti uh

antidepressants

so the first thing I did was sorry I

started weeding myself off

uh watched your videos I started Keto

omed

um apple cider vinegar and if and so

uh what happened is that after I weaned

myself off I got so much energy now I’ve

been walking you know I got no brain fog

no depression

um I didn’t know I was a zombie for 10

years I really didn’t know that so I

only take you supplements now and uh

because I’m 70 and proud to say that I T

I don’t take any medications wow so yeah

and um so yeah thank you so much for

that

um uh I want to mention uh

into a December 2020 I got exposed to

covid I I couldn’t get uh tested but I

had symptoms of uh for over a year and a

half I couldn’t smell

well I

it tastes and smell so I took your sinus

supplement

one bottle and I got 85 to 90 percent of

my smell back so

I I wanted to try anything and I know I

want there’s another video on um uh

concerning sinus okay so and by the way

Mary I’m sorry we’re kind of running out

of time if you have a specific question

if you can hit us with it real quickly

I’m getting to my question okay so I’m

basically healthy but the one thing I

I’ve tried everything gelatin collagen

silica uh my nails are so thin paper

thin

okay okay so let’s cover that and uh

well done and all these other things I

mean you have to be nowadays you have to

be really super healthy to be able to

handle medications take medications

nowadays

um because of all the side effects like

fatigue and you didn’t even know until

you came off of it

um so um for the nails I think the

probably the the best thing that I would

recommend to take would be um

silica

in a liquid and then of course you can

also do other things like biotin

especially if there’s any gut problem

too that could be blocking your ability

to use biotin biotin strengthens the

fingers and nails and and of course the

trace trace minerals will do it as well

but silica is a good one let’s say you

do that and it doesn’t work which should

be very rare I would just do more trace

minerals at this point because the fresh

measures are the cofactors that allow

proteins to be formed especially

collagen and other proteins and so

but some people um

they have issues with absorbing those

minerals so they need more so I would

just take more of the trace minerals and

that should help you but that would be

after the silica

okay well listen uh Mary I tell you what

we’re so short on time I wish we could

spend more time with you but we can’t

but we’re glad we were able to get you

back on so maybe come back with us at a

later date and we will uh address your

question at that point now we have

um

sorry to do that but there we go we have

uh answers to the next question and it

asks what is the most common symptom of

pancreatic enzymes deficiency and the

audience quickly answered

ninety percent of them said respondents

say the fiber actually feeds the sibo or

candida 10 say it’s because the attached

nutrients cannot be absorbed

now um

so that question

I think we oh I’m sorry forgive me

here’s here’s the correct question see I

was scared to erase it because I got in

trouble before why would you not want to

consume salad or veggies if you have

sibo which is small intestinal bacterial

overgrowth the answer still makes sense

so 90 say fiber actually feeds the sibo

and 10 say it’s because the attached

nutrients can’t be absorbed so there we

go sorry audience

yeah so yeah so it’s it’s absolutely

true because you can’t um

you have bacteria that in the wrong

place it’s in the small intestines so

it’s competing it is competing for um

nutrients

so if you add

this food for them they’re gonna go oh

thank you we can eat this and they’re

going to start fermenting fermenting is

not meant to occur in the small

intestine just the large so now we have

fermentation in the wrong place and

guess what you’re going to feel

I mean the the small intestine is not as

big as the large intestine so you’re

going to get so much pain and bloating

when you do salads

um and fiber that especially like these

synthetic fibers you’re just gonna and

even like some of the sugar alcohols

um that totally have different fibers in

it that are synthetic boy it’s going to

rip up your your colon and make you feel

terrible and here you are thinking wow

I’m eating healthy I’m eating low carb

I’m doing salads

and I’m like why do I feel so bad it’s

because you you have sibo and and you

need to kind of cut that out for a while

like to even do carnivore for a couple

months because um you have bacteria in

the wrong place but I will release a

video more comprehensively on how to

explain why you get it and how to

resolve it in more detail this next week

all right good well Terry said one more

screw up on the questions and I’m fired

so I’m going to keep that in mind uh

however we do have room for one more uh

question this one is from YouTube for

the past week my urine has been very

orange not dark yellow but orange not

eating carrots at all dehydration or

liver issues

well possibly possibly you know I mean

um are you doing any type of vitamins

especially the B vitamins that can give

more of a yellow but sometimes an orange

um but uh yeah it could be definitely

liver you know when you try to like

figure out these problems with just one

symptom it’s really hard because you

need to you gotta need to know a little

bit more about what’s going on to be

able to really give some good advice

um it’s like me asking like okay I’m

fatigued why am I fatigued well it could

be a thousand different reasons so

um orange urine

that’s a good one that’s the new one

you’re very good well listen audience I

promise to be better behaved on the

questions next week that we’re about out

of time so uh doc if you oh how about

this why don’t we talk about the great

um advances we have in feeding people

around the world your great supplements

and a little bit more fair affordable uh

way uh so yeah we’re becoming um more

accessible through uh in overseas uh in

other places so you can check out we

have some links down below if you uh

wanted to get some supplements that are

pretty darn high quality I’m putting a

lot of attention on that so it’s going

to keep you any better over time because

uh

um

I really like the transparency so we’re

going to do more and more of that

um anyway

on that note

um I think you’re going to be

you’re going to enjoy these next videos

coming up this next week because um

um

got really creative on different topics

so stay tuned for more of that thank you

for your attention and your wonderful

comments have a wonderful week I will

see you next week

[Music]

thank you
