hey guys dr. Berg here listen have you

ever had a friend or family member not

take your nutritional advice I know it’s

shocking i mean here you’re giving this

great truth and they just don’t jump all

over it right well today i want to talk

about why that is okay i want to teach

you this french word which is right here

you day six okay that’s what that means

this fixed idea okay so this is Anna you

can look this up it’s right on line and

it the definition of this would be the

preoccupation of the mind believing to

be firmly resistant to any attempt to

modify it it’s a fixation fixation the

name originates from the French the day

idea and seeks which means six so this

concept is basically a fixed idea in San

with mine that they’re really unwilling

to look at something else so they’re all

their focus is on their viewpoint that

they won’t look at your viewpoint okay

so basically they’re not looking and

that’s what you’re running up against

it’s basically conflicts with what they

already know you might tell them now no

it’s dad it’s okay to eat cholesterol

foods and they go no it’s not and then

it creates a little situation so people

that have these fixed ideas have to be

right about them they cannot be wrong

about them so when you’re trying to

educate them about something above all

else make sure you don’t make them wrong

okay because they will fight you I run

into this on the net all of the time

okay and letting you guys in I

appreciate you stick up for me all of

some people that have a different

viewpoint and they’ll just go off and

often L instead of trying to understand

something they’ll call call me names and

all sorts of things I just kind of laugh

at that but this new information that

you’re trying to present to someone

really invalidates their information

okay now usually when you have a fixed

idea about something you’re not very

flexible in your thinking about it

you’re just like this is the truth

despite your results so let’s say you’re

trying to lose weight well chances out

you might have some fixed idea that’s

preventing you from learning

the correct way to lose weight here’s

some examples of some fixed ideas eat

less and lose weight right well I’m so

many people that do that and they’re not

losing weight I mean we’ve tried that to

last 40 years and people keep getting

less and less and less and it destroys

your metabolism and the more you diet

you can’t lose weight so that’s

definitely a fixed idea that people have

how about this one everything in

moderation I would sure that you know

I’ll be driving the car with someone and

I’ll say well you know yeah well

everything moderation you know that’s

what they’re operating off of well

that’s preventing them from being

successful because that allows the need

a little bit of sugar dessert and a

little bit of this and I even had my own

fixed ideas recently I had not recently

i’d say about so a few years ago we’re

in my book my last book I told you to

consume five meals a day you know with

the snacks I told you to consume apples

well that was a fixed idea that I had I

had to be willing to be wrong and

correct myself in the new edition you

won’t see that so again you know the

more someone is made wrong the more they

will fight it so you really have to be

willing to look at different viewpoints

how about this one drink eight glasses

of water a day to be hydrated right

there are people that believe that so

strongly that if you say something that

counters that they will literally attack

you that’s an ID fixed idea how about

this one like only MDS credible MDS from

accredited university can give you good

information about health so you will dr.

Berger you’re not a medical doctor so

why she’ll listen to you well first of

all medical doctors are not taught a lot

of nutrition in fact it’s probably maybe

eight powers and their entire schooling

how can they give you any information

about natural remedies or nutrition or

food therapy unless you’ve had

experience you really can’t get good

information now they’re experts in

medication surgeries things like that

emergency care but when it comes down to

health that probably my last source to

go to that would be the non credible

source okay like when I use to train

doctors I had a medical doctor who had

this fixed idea that she said the way to

educate patient

is to give them a bunch of big words so

then that will impress them and they’ll

think you’re smart and then they’ll

believe you I said no you’re going to

confuse them you’re going to give them

misunderstandings they’re not going to

understand you and you’re going to be

out of communication okay you want to

break it down so people can really

understand when you teach them right so

in summary when you run into friends and

family not taking your nutritional

values just realize they’re a sitting on

a fixed idea and that the more you make

them wrong divorce is going to get so

you have to be gentle you have to help

them understand it and I will guarantee

that they have some huge

misunderstandings in the area of this

right here like if you’re trying to

educate them on cholesterol I guarantee

they don’t even know what cholesterol is

as far as a definition of the purpose or

weight loss they don’t know what insulin

is they don’t understand what metabolism

is or what a calorie is I will guarantee

that so I would go into that area and

help them understand that so they can

actually be a little freer to look at

your viewpoint alright thanks for
