hi this is dr. Berg in this video I want

to talk about weird in unexplainable

symptoms a lot of people go to the

doctor with symptoms and there’s really

no test that they can pick up a lot of

these symptoms and I want to talk about

there’s a part of the body called the

autonomic nervous system and this system

runs an automatic it’s the system behind

all of their systems it controls

something called homeostasis which is

you your body’s ability to adapt to this

environment okay so it’s constantly

adjusting digestion even hormones a

temperature fluids valves in the body so

let’s just kind of go through all the

symptoms some of the symptoms that could

occur if you have a problem with the

autonomic nervous system dysfunction

urinary problems urinary frequency and

count and incontinence all these

problems with the bladder because the

autonomic nervous system controls the

valves the valve of the eye so if you

actually put some light into the eye in

the mirror and you see your that little

black part go down like this it should

contract or constrict that’s controlled

by the autonomic nervous system if you

have a weak autonomic nervous system

that contraction will won’t be able to

hold for 20 seconds it starts going it’s

weak it cannot hold the constriction so

that’s a valve problem next one can’t

sweat you exercise but you don’t sweat

that’s the autonomic nervous system

dysfunction sensitivity with sound or

light ringing the ears coughing at night

fainting especially maybe getting up too

fast and then passing out or feeling

light-headed that’s the problem with

this too irregular heart rhythm

temperature issues let’s say you feel

always hot or always cold see if you go

to a new chronologist and they test and

your thyroid is normal well it could be

this right here low blood pressure or

high blood pressure pots which is when

you stand up from lying down your pulse

rate can go too high or eve sometimes it

goes too low based on a little bit of

stress on your body dry eyes sweating

easily

see you get on the shower and you just

break on the sweat or your palms are

sweaty boom

premature ejaculation sleep disorders

all sorts of digestive problems with a

the food doesn’t digest or you get

constipation and the next day you get

diarrhea epilepsy these are all symptoms

that a lot of people have and they go to

the endocrinologist to go to the immune

doctor they go to the GP and they don’t

find it the expert of the autonomic

nervous system would be the neurologist

neurologist is an MD that studies the

autonomic nervous system and there’s

dirt and tests that you can do to to

learn about this one of the first two

symptoms to know that this is breaking

down is one you stand up too fast you

get dizzy and number two you start

having bladder problems at night okay

those are the first two but there’s a

lot of other things that can go wrong I

even have a test that measures the

autonomic nervous system using a

technology called heart rate variability

HRV testing I don’t use it to diagnose

any diseases I use it mainly for stress

testing and to pick up the strength of

this system because I also specialize in

the nervous system but I don’t treat

these conditions I do improve this

condition but I don’t treat the symptom

this autonomic nervous system is is

really three parts one is the flight or

fight mechanism which is sympathetic and

then the other system that’s the stress

reaction and any of the parasympathetic

which is the recovery of the stress and

then the last system is called enteric

which is all about your digestion and

those are the three systems and part of

the system is embedded inside your

adrenal it’s also in your mid-back and

it’s up in the back of the neck so it’s

all over the place and it helps you

regulate a lot of body functions so if

you have these weird symptoms just

realize it could be a problem with that

system and you can kind of investigate

it more fairly yourself
