welcome back everyone

have a new background here and just just

for those of you that um

are new anything that i said is not

meant to diagnose you or replace your

medical care check with your doctor

before

accepting or taking on any of these tips

that i’m about to tell you

we have a a ton of people ready to speak

to we have this new format which is

awesome i can actually finally see

people on the other side

and so um steve uh let’s just dive right

in and get some questions

answered good we’re going to get rob

from detroit to come up with the first

question of the day

rob you’re on the air hey dr berg thank

you so much for having me

so i i’ve been doing keto for about four

months now

and one of my uh bigger problems is i

i pretty much own every one of your

supplements and i’m

i’m scared of supplements in some

instances so i don’t

necessarily take them as directed

because i’m wondering

what is what are the too many

supplements can i do too many

supplements because they’re food grade

should i be taking the mass directed i

mean i do the keto energy

the nutritional yeast the adrenal

support um

and some some days even though i feel so

much better than

i used to i still have down days

and entire days and um old

me days before keto and you know i’ve

lost about 70 pounds

and i think i’m just looking for that

validation that

hey i’m doing okay and if i keep going

i’m gonna eventually feel better

and be how much supplements is too much

supplements

that’s a pack question but let me just

dive right in there

yeah so with the supplements that i have

you can’t do too many because they’re

food based

concentrates so there you could do too

many if you’re doing synthetics or

you’re doing

notropics which are affect the your

mental state which i don’t have any of

those

so you’re not going to have to worry

about overdoing it

i think one thing that’s beneficial is

to is just to start learning more about

those products what they do how they

affect you and

to see um see if certain things are

being addressed

maybe some of the ones you can kind of

phase out of once you understand what

they do

more but you’re but you have a good

point because

as someone progresses when they start to

go on keto

uh there’s a bit of a bit of a you’re

gonna feel better but then there’s gonna

be ups and downs ups and downs ups and

downs as you get better

um that is normal that’s natural um

i always tend to really pay attention to

okay i’m not feeling right today when

did that hap when did it start what what

did i do right before that because you

have

other things you have the quality of

sleep you have the people you hang

around with you have stress

you have something you just ate that you

normally don’t eat

and then you learn from that like okay

good i won’t do that again

i think it’s also something that’s

important to kind of

you know i’m not recommending a cheat

day but sometimes it takes someone to go

off the program occasionally just to see

how they feel to

be convinced yeah that doesn’t work i’m

not going to do that again

and there’s other people that don’t

learn from their mistakes they tend to

keep

doing the same thing over and over and

over and over and um

keep getting bloated and then when i

talk to them

i bring this up to like oh that’s right

maybe i should

not eat that because every time i eat

that that bloats me so i would just um

learn from what you what you’re doing

and then keep improving and tweaking it

as you

get to the point where you get your body

into a power state which

a temporary going off the program will

not even affect you you feel

great all the time and you’re

implementing

more and more things that increases your

long-term survival

yeah uh thank you i just had my

gallbladder removed three weeks ago

i had emergency gallbladder surgery it

was i guess

like within four hours it grew so big it

was popping on my abdominal wall

wow and uh when i was 25 i’m 39 now i

was diagnosed with

too many stones and they said i could

take it out but i was like i want to

keep it it’s not bugging me

unfortunately it started bugging me so i

did get your gallbladder formula

and you know i’ve noticed like mct oil

doesn’t

impact my stomach anymore i used to have

problems with it

i feel like i’m better now that it’s

gone but i’m kind of wondering

um should i take those supplements now

and

um you know do you think my keto

lifestyle is gonna change

because of it so you just have to pay

attention to

um being deficient in bile

maybe down the road because what happens

you no longer have a storage

of bile so what does that mean it means

you don’t you’re not going to be able to

have this concentrated bile

so now we have a diluted bile so now

they’re you’re susceptible to not

getting the full benefit from omega-3

fatty acids

uh vitamin a vitamin d vitamin e vitamin

k

k right k1 k2

that’s why the gallbladder formula is

beneficial but then the question is how

do you know if you’re taking too much

diarrhea if you have diarrhea you’re

taking too much you back off

and then you can kind of use that as a

monitoring to see if you need

more or less let’s see you get

constipation wow i need more bile

that bile is going to help your thyroid

work better because it’s going to

convert t4 to t3

but yeah you can live a perfectly normal

life just

you know just keep replacing that bile

over time and

if you start to be driving at night in

the dark and notice that your vision is

really poor

that’s a vitamin a deficiency like up i

need some more

bile not vitamin a but more bile to help

me

pull in that fat soluble vitamin so just

watch all my videos on that i think

you’ll get more

more help on that i’ve watched a ton on

it thank you so much

my last thing is just a quick statement

you’ve never done a video on like how an

ssri like a anti-anxiety pill will

impact our bodies and i i’ve been trying

to get off of them

um because keto has made me feel like i

don’t need them anymore

but they’re so hard to get off of and i

was just wondering if you could

ever in the future do something that

shows this is what it does to our bodies

you know that is a great tip for me

thank you because i

was just wondering what am i going to do

a video on next week and i’m going to do

it on that

so that’s a great idea thank you so much

yeah sure okay well that was great

by the way doc speaking of supplements

and vitamins and all that

kathy on youtube writes in that her

synthetic vitamins

uh feel like rocks in her stomach she

can’t handle it

my lay approach would be well quit

taking them what do you say doc

i was the guy that was taking the the

one a days and

not even thinking that they weren’t the

same as any other vitamin they were

inexpensive in college i would not

take these and then later on i’m

actually learned that

the main ingredient is calcium carbonate

that’s a rock so i was eating rocks

with some chemicals very very um

cheap ingredients

they don’t work the same as whole food

so i i think i would um lean on the area

of not

taking those and getting more of a a

real vitamin

but that’s just my opinion well i think

that’s uh you’re yeah

literally rocks well she’s on to

something and it’s great you know you

can use it as a paperweight because

they’re they’re very heavy so that’s one

great benefit

well that’s terrific well listen why

don’t we say hello to the world and by

the way

later on we’ve got kelvin coming for the

uk so we’ve already got somebody online

in the green room

from uk and for the rest of the world

we’re going to give a shout out to

canada

malaysia sweden singapore mongolia

zambia been there

france slovenia india germany pakistan

the virgin islands spain denmark

saudi arabia jordan trinidad poland

these are some new names ireland

argentina switzerland uh israel turkey

and all across these

united states and i don’t know if yeah

we said canada and uh and

listen mexico what is it with you guys

south america

i know you’re listening but you’re just

not chiming in so i’m going to put one

in for mexico anyway i know they’re out

there

and let’s see um and then uh let’s go

back to a question this time from

facebook

elvira wants to know can baking soda

break a fast

now baking soda if it just has baking

soda in there

it’s not going to break a fast but

sometimes they add in their

other ingredients that will break a fast

some carbs and things so just read the

ingredients to make sure it doesn’t have

other ingredients

but when you put the baking soda in your

wheat bread that you make

the wheat is going to break you fast but

not if it’s keto friendly

all right wonderful great words why

don’t we go to our first quiz question

doc here you go

okay what is the most popular drug used

on college campuses

so i assume you mean like an illicit

drug not some prescription thing is that

is that or whatever huh yeah it’s a

prescription drug

oh interesting but you might not take it

with a prescription

oh yeah without a prescription there’s

some of that too

okay how about jessie she wants to know

on youtube with or without drugs what

causes a sluggish lymphatic system

is it acidosis

your lymphatic system doesn’t have a

pump so

it’s activated by motion you have to

move

uh now there’s uh different types of

lymphedemia

where you’re actually holding fluid um

or lymph

because of various reasons which i won’t

get into but

typically if you want to get that

lymphatic system pumped out

you want to stay in motion you want to

stay moving

exercise but there are other conditions

there’s immune conditions

the lymphatic system is really

a backup system for your circulation

because all of your

blood that goes through the arteries and

gets pumped to the heart

end up into the capillaries then then

they cross that barrier into

this other backup system which is the

lymph

lymphatic system which actually can act

as a

system that can back up the circulation

so if there’s anything wrong with the

circulation you could have problems with

your lymph

and lymphedema is a completely different

problem which uh i’ve done a video on

that so you can watch that video

oh i hope jesse doesn’t suffer from that

and by the way what would the symptoms

be

i’m interested how jessie you know sort

of diagnosed that it might be a sluggish

you’re going to see um your ankles are

going to be all

uh filled with it looks like fluid and

you’ll have

it looks like it’s retention of a lot of

fluid like your feet and your ankles

and your body’s just really puffy

interesting well jesse get off the couch

no i’m sure he

has a great exercise regime and then

here’s another one from youtube

steve wants to know he’s been using

allulose if i’m saying that right he

loves it says it makes great ice cream

wants to know your thoughts on that as a

sweetener

love it love it love it love it i think

it’s one of the better

um sweeteners

and i’ll be doing more videos on it so

uh

i recommend it it has a glycemic index

of zero

and it tastes like sugar well that’s

really neat so

uh they’re coming up with great great

schemes for that let’s see i don’t have

any answers quite tabulated for the

question yet so

why don’t we go to another caller and

stand by and i’m going to bring up

zaheed let me find him here

from uh toronto canada zaheed you’re on

the air with dr byrd

good morning dr greg how are you good

morning great thanks

okay uh my question is like um i’ve been

doing keto for past

four months um i lost like tremendous

like wait i would say about like 24 to

25 pounds

but now it kind of still it’s not going

anymore but i’m not too worried about it

because i have some muscle weight i do

work out

my issue is i’ve been have a gas problem

bloating problem for

past five years i tried different diets

i even tried keto

i tried to stick with proteins and all

that but no matter what i eat

it’s still there and also i recently

developed an issue of burping as well

and some sort of heartburning and acid

reflux i would say

in other words my doctor says it’s ibs

problem and you have acid reflux issue

as well

i’m not taking ppis i saw your videos

and all those

uh but i’m trying some homeopathic thing

um

so my question is how to get rid of this

bloating issue because it’s

it makes my life health it’s cramping

mood swing

and all that stuff so you have this um

step one step two step three type

actions you want to take

um as the food goes through this

digestive system this pipe

it’s quite long you have the stomach and

then you have the small intestine

large intestine but you have these you

know the pancreas it releases enzymes

you have the gallbladder that releases

bile

but it all starts with the stomach

and the first thing i would do is try to

acidify your stomach because that’s

going to

increase the ability to complete that

first part of the

chain of events which is usually a

problem for most people so if you start

taking betaine hydrochloride

but because it’s it’s not like extremely

acid it’s not like a like battery acid

or anything like that it’s just like

it’s probably 6.5 as far as the ph

could be like six it gives you the

building blocks to build your

hydrochloric acid you’re gonna need

probably

i don’t know five to nine of those

with a meal initially and you might not

see

you might see a little change you start

doing that for

one to two to three weeks and all of a

sudden it starts to really work a lot

better

and then you start to acidify the

stomach over time

so that’s number one and then you start

doing intermittent fasting so you’re not

constantly shoving food down this pipe

to give it

you want to give it a chance to heal and

then the second thing you want to add

after that would be the purified bile

salt so you can do the gallbladder

formula if you want but

now you start adding the bile

which now we get less burping we get

less

bloating because now we add those two

and then the other thing is the

probiotics just to make sure you have

enough of those

now in the meantime probably cut down on

like i said in the video too many raw

vegetables that could be bloating you

yeah and then try not to do too much

protein because if you can actually

especially at the stomach you can’t

digest that much protein if you don’t

have the acid and that

can cause gas as a side effect but all

this means is that you either have a

problem with

proteins carbohydrates with fermentation

or fats with a lack of bile so you’re

going to just try one at a time and see

what fixes it

and i have a lot of videos on on how to

break it down

you know to make it easy just to mention

i’ve been doing intermittent fasting as

well along with keto

and also i’m cut down the vegetables i

do have some family history of cancer

and i have a gallbladder with a little

polyps in it my doctor is monitoring it

but

but bile salt i took some bile salts but

it made me

throw up that’s because that’s because

you you didn’t take it in the right

order

if you see bile salts are alkaline right

let’s say for example

which a lot of people don’t have the ass

in their stomach and they don’t fix the

stomach

first and they jump right to the

gallbladder then all of a sudden it

doesn’t work because they’re alkalizing

the stomach more when they take the bile

cells so i would work on the stomach

first for a period of time

and then add that gallbladder later

but in my gallbladder formula i do have

acidifiers for the stomach but still

you just need to i think focus on the

stomach right now um

you’re not ready for the bile okay

all right um that’s all i have i have

i’ll email you a couple of my tests

um just attention dr burke and we’ll go

for from there thank you okay

thanks much all right steve what do we

have as an answer for the first question

what’s the most popular drug college

students use

nowadays all right well seventy percent

say

adderall 20 ritalin and then

cbd 5 and caffeine 5. any winners today

yes adderall is the winner adderall

is the winner so um in fact

did you realize that 24 percent of

students in universities

are using adderall i think that’s kind

of

high and it’s used as a study aid

i mean i understand the situation

because in college

you’re forced to learn so much data to

get these grades

but adderall doesn’t necessarily fix the

comprehension of the information that

you’re learning it doesn’t help you

understand the data

i know and um i had to go through

pre-med i didn’t go to medical school i

went to chiropractic college but i had

to go through pre-med

and honestly there’s not enough

time to really understand the data

you have to just get through it somehow

memorize it

which has really nothing to do with

understanding the data

and then pass the test and move on

because you

in order to digest and assimilate and be

able to apply the information and test

it out to see if it’s true

that would take way too much time so

unfortunately the whole system is set up

to

force feed so much data so you can

regurgitate it get the test

get the diploma graduate so you can move

on

but how you going to do that if you’re

you have brain fog you can’t

you can’t focus so people are using

these steady aids

which i think is the wrong action i use

caffeine

pots of caffeine it caught up with me to

try to stay awake to try to

get all this data to pay it past the

test and so

um there are things to do i will release

the video on that next week um

how to there’s a natural alternative to

adderall that i think um

is good because it has less side effects

because adderall is very addictive

it has side effects of psychosis um gi

problems um all sorts of issues and even

anxiety so

um that is the problem with adderall

with side effects

so stay tuned for that video next week

sounds like someone’s eating some potato

chips or cleaning their desks back there

let’s see uh i think we’ve got it all

zapped out but why don’t we you know

maybe that’s christy should we go to uh

christy stand by just a moment and let

me bring her up and she’s called

coming in from a place you probably know

olympia

washington yeah i actually practiced in

linwood washington

a long time ago beautiful

uh we’re having a little trouble with

christy’s feed can you try to talk again

christy

we’re going to put christy on hold for

just a moment

yeah see if we can fix that

communication i know um

the problem

hey christy why don’t we try something

take off your um

video and just do audio see if that

works better

go ahead chris you see if we can hear

you our thing is it’s been just perfect

shot this whole time and just completely

froze up so we’re going to have to

wait in fact chris diagon asks for you

to call back in if you can or we’ll give

you a few minutes why don’t we go to

instead kim hang on kim i’ll bring you

up in

uh arizona let’s see she is

no unless i tell you what we’ll go to

robert

i stand by robert yeah

and uh okay hi rob hi

thank you for taking my call sorry

you’re having some technical problems on

the show

we it all worked great in rehearsal i

know i know

um i’m a 70 year old

male who’s had cholesterol problems and

have been on statin medication

for years and a year ago i started keto

and i feel fantastic i’ve lost i’ve lost

pounds i’ve lost a lot of pounds

and i’m doing it for my health i want to

just maintain this type of

diet for for longevity and reducing

inflammation

and all the other things that go along

with it that i’ve learned a lot from you

and thank you so much for your shows

um i my cholesterol

levels were in check according to the

standard

american guidelines

and three months ago i came off of all

statin medication with

with my consultation with my doctor we

wanted to try it he knows what i’m doing

and i said i want to i want to give it a

shot see what happens

um i did an nmr just before i stopped my

statins

and i did an nmr three months later

the numbers now are staggering high

the underlying issue that i have

is that my thyroid was tested and it is

showing up very very low um

i am hypothyroid and i’m on

thyroid medication but

even with that medication i think he’s

over dosing me

and i’m wondering

am i am i going to be okay

if i adjust my thyroid medication

okay um and i’ll have steve kind of mute

uh

looks like crystal bell for a second

because we have some background

yeah we got her muted i can still

really that’s interesting uh i’ve got

her beauty crystal

if you like thank you okay so you um

so we got some staggering numbers is the

numbers um that are staggering

are they cholesterol triglycerides ldl

what specifically is going really high

okay the uh total cholesterol went from

one eight 168 to 386

total i know that’s not the number you

want the ldlp

went from 782 to 3289.

did you did you did you actually um

measure the uh

type a and type b on that that particle

size

no no that’s the missing link right

there um

but i’ll come back to that and what was

your triglycerides

they went down from 142

to 91. okay

okay speed do you have the ability to

to mute someone over there yeah it’s

interesting it says muted i’m sorry

everyone if they’re uh hearing this but

everyone is muted kristabel if you can

hear us

uh if you can just you know what i just

muted her

oh interesting no trigger yeah that’s

great

okay so um let’s get it now

really that’s that’s interesting

christopher

yeah that’s interesting but let’s hear

what krista bell i’m going to bring you

back in a little later we’re getting a

lot of noise from the background there

uh standby okay so um

you gave me some really good data here

and i think

this is important question um number one

the thyroid

i don’t do you know if you have

hashimoto’s or not

not been diagnosed with hashimoto’s okay

so

right there to convert from t4 to t3 you

need the help of the liver and you need

the bile the bile is really the key i

think to this whole thing because

if you’re having that much cholesterol

we’re not having enough

degrading or breakdown of the bile

because that’s really what one of the

important purposes of bile is to

get rid of the excess cholesterol that’s

coming

from the burning of fat from the adipose

tissue from the diet

so we’re getting this we’re not able to

get rid of enough of this cholesterol

because i think the bile ducts

need to be flowing better and i think i

would start dumping some purified bile

salts into your system right away and

then get retested

and that’s going to help your thyroid at

the same time

the other thing is that the tests that

you really want to get

you want to check the ldl p that’s the

particle

but you want to check the size there’s a

type a type b you have the

there’s two kinds there’s a dense

and then there’s a high density and then

there’s also a buoyant which is a larger

molecule i would bet anything

all that cholesterol the particle size

are the large buoyant

non-pathogenic non-problem

type cholesterol because that’s that’s

the type of my wife she’s getting all

this cholesterol coming through but it’s

not

ending up in your arteries at all it’s

just going through the system

because she actually needed more bile

and then she did very well

so with you i think i would simply get

that test done

you want an advanced lipid profile test

to measure type a and type b

and i would just be so curious to see

what the results of that would be

um i bet you’re you’re the dense the

smaller dense

particle would be within normal range

add the purified bile salts keep working

on your liver

um and then come back on and let me know

maybe in two months and let’s see what

we can do with that

and then maybe in the meantime um you

know

you don’t have to add extra amount extra

type of

fatty foods just eat the fat within the

normal food but i

i will say that you all these other

indicators seem to be better you’re

feeling better and so

um that’s really what’s missing

okay so try that appreciate it thank you

very much doctor

you’re welcome okay okay

hey dr burke how about the next question

here’s a question why does gout attacks

attack why does this gout attack the big

toe

okay that’s the question

all right interesting let’s see if you

guys could uh

get that one correct okay and let me

just have a little uh disclaimer

uh explanation for the audience what

we’re hearing in the background dr berg

the audience doesn’t hear so it’s just

torture notes and we’ll work that out

but everybody in the green room and you

apparently can hear that but at least

it’s not broadcasting so it’s driving us

nuts

and anyway folks uh you know we’re

really excited about this new system we

have which allows a much more intimate

interaction between dr berg and all of

you folks so

if you’ll bear with us as we get better

and better with this routine

but everything else remains the same the

question and so on and then of course

tons of stuff from social media so let’s

get back to that

and uh we have some questions from

facebook muhammad

what is the better raw sunflower seeds

or roasted sunflower seeds is there

a difference

the raw sunflower seeds have a lot more

b1

in them however there is still some in

in the roasted and roasted are a little

easier to digest because there’s less

inhibitors

enzyme inhibitors there so they’re

better on the digestive system

so you know eats them in moderation and

i think

most people can digest them but if you

can get them more raw you’re going to

get more nutrition

however that being said there are

certain minerals that you can get

if you if you actually consume them

roasted so it’s kind of a mixed bag

because certain vitamins

are going to be there if they’re raw but

if they’re roasted you’re going to get

rid of

or break down some of the

the anti-nutrients that lock up the

minerals

so um but i i pretty much like

sunflower seeds for their vitamin b1

so that’s one one thing that i focus i

don’t i

i don’t think you’re gonna get a lot of

your other nutrition

from sunflower seeds i mean it’s it’s

kind of minor

so um you know it gives you certain

things but the main thing is the b1

that’s why i like it so

i would just go with the raw if i were

you is that true for other

nuts or legumes or however you say it or

is it different with each

with each individual

[Music]

well with the nuts you want them

germinated

and that way you can actually get rid of

those the phytates and the other um

inhibitors that will lock up nutrition

so

um but roasted you’re going to get some

nutrition too like in peanut butter and

things like that

try to eat a raw peanut and see what see

what it tastes like it’s just

it’s terrible so um walnuts i like

walnuts um

raw but i would i would germinate them

so i have a complete video on that

question

if you want to just search it out all

right that sounds great now let’s try

kim again from arizona all right

steve do we have we have kim from

arizona on the line

go ahead kim hello okay kim all right

thank you hi thank you so much for this

uh

platform to ask questions in your time

it’s very kind it’s very educational too

um been eight weeks on keto uh

once a day and i’m getting

well i have dry wrinkly skin so i was

wondering

if you could help help with that also i

have a lot of sunspots but that’s

because i’m outside

and um it’s like i’m like a banana

getting started

so but

okay so um clarify the second question

about related to your skin you said i

know about the dry skin but there was

one more thing you mentioned about that

um i have wrinkles i’m 57

and then i have i like spots h spots but

i

i think that’s mostly from the sun so

because i’m outside okay

got it so there’s a couple things that

you can protect yourself

against the sun and one of the things is

actually vitamin k2

vitamin k2 and taking vitamin having

enough vitamin d which you’re going to

get from the sun but vitamin k2 would be

very very important

as well as um the other thing which is

the omega-3 fatty acids

not only is that very protective

in the skin but it’s it’s going to help

your dry skin

the dry skin usually comes because

you’re not consuming enough omega-3

fatty acids in the diet

now you might say well i eat i eat that

on a regular basis but

the other reason is you’re not you might

not be absorbing them because the

the gallbladder or the bile is not there

enough

to be able to assimilate those that

fat-soluble

nutrient so um

those are the two things i would look at

and maybe you want to take a combination

of both

but that will make your skin less dry

of consuming more omega-3 fatty acids

took cod liver oil and and i’ve been

doing that but

could i take it twice a day cuddle oil

fish oil or fish salmon yeah

all right thank you yeah it looks like

we’re having some tactical

you’re welcome okay let’s see

um if she was breaking up there a little

bit hear me here

i sure am and in fact we’ve got some

answers to the

quiz question uh what why does

okay why does gout attack the big toe

and the audience

says 80 say the toe joint is the

furthest from the heart

and it’s the coldest joint creating uric

acid crystals boy that’s an advanced

answer

20 say gravity pulls uric acid down to

the lowest

joint uh what do you say

you know i’m actually very impressed

with you guys because uh

there’s two things that affect the

deposits of these uric

and that is uh the ph

and the temperature so it just so

happens that out of all the parts of

your body that is the coldest

it’s the big toe and so that’s

probably what’s going on most likely is

that

it’s a temperature thing and

usually gout attacks happen at night in

the middle of the night they wake

you up when you’re the coldest so

i will be doing a video more on that i

think it’s going to be a very

interesting video so stay tuned for that

that’s wonderful and then back to uh

youtube fat nazi

is losing iron and weight and suffers

from helicobacter

is that any remedy for that or what

should he do or is that in fact

the cause of his problems

you broke up there steve can you repeat

that uh sure so anyway on

uh youtube fat nazi is losing iron and

weight

and claims to have or does have

helicobacter could that be the

issue with him

i don’t i don’t i think that’s a symptom

because the

h pylori the microbe usually

comes because stomach acid is not

sufficient

so it tends to kind of come out when you

have low stomach acids so

and the low stomach acid won’t let you

absorb

iron so i would add more

betaine hydrochloride to sit up on the

stomach to absorb more iron

so you’re less anemic

[Music]

all right that sounds great and then

back over that come through steve

it sure did and then back over from um

youtube how much bile salt should i take

my gallbladder was removed 40 years ago

goodness

yeah i i would i would experiment and

try try different things if you’re going

to

take my purify bile salts gallbladder

formula

you would take like two after a meal

but if you use other ones experiment

just to try to take a little bit take a

little bit more and see how much

you need until you feel less bloated

and your digestion is a little bit

better terrific and then lilia from

facebook

do you recommend omega 7 oils i never

heard of that steve did that come

through

it sure did it sure did can you hear me

doc

i think the doctor okay terrific and

here we go from lilia from facebook

do you recommend omega 7 oils or are

they better than omega-3s i never heard

of them

there’s there’s a yeah there’s more than

just uh omega-6

omega-3 um

but i think that i’ve never seen a

significant

like wow that really helped you when we

when someone had more of those

fatty acids so

just to keep this really simple the most

important thing is to

avoid omega-6 that’s the soy corn canola

cottonseed oil which honestly

i would just look at it like you don’t

really even need the six you need the

three that’s usually what’s missing in

the majority of the population

omega-3 and that can come from

fish oils cod liver oil but it’s also in

egg yolks it’s in

you can have precursors like in walnuts

for example

that has something called ala that then

converts into the active form

a little bit so but the main thing is

from animal products

um omega three fatty acids it’s a very

important

yet people aren’t doing it too much and

especially if you’re

pregnant especially if you’re a young

child

to get those omega-3s are so

so important in brain development and

making sure that child

becomes smart because if you’re

deficient you can actually have a lower

iq believe it or not all right terrific

answer

in my mind why don’t we go to the next a

quiz question dr berg

yes okay why does your body need sulfur

in your diet okay sulfur

and from your food of course okay work

on that why would your body you

you know need that that’s the question

all right very good audience have at it

and then

speaking of the audience diana from

facebook if a person is on blood

thinners is there a problem taking

vitamin k

yes that is a problem because

blood thinners especially chemical

it blocks vitamin k1 so obviously they

don’t want you to have that because

uh they’re trying to thin the blood and

so

they need to avoid foods high in k1 so

all the dark leafy green vegetables

however

what you can do is consume vegetables

that are not leafy green like the

yellows and the oranges

the squash things like that and

certain peppers are yellow and

and then that way you can consume things

that are i have a whole

list in the video that i did on this

but um just a side note um it’s really

kind of sad when someone has to be on

that coumadin because they can’t even

the doctor won’t even let them take

vitamin k2

which you really need to protect the

heart so um

i think there is other versions of like

certain blood

thinners that you can take k1

i’m not going to give you any advice on

that but i would ask your doctor to see

if you could take some of those

and maybe even try an alternative source

with the help of your doctor with more

vitamin e which thins the blood

more omega-3 fatty acid that thins the

blood so that way

you’re not taking the chemicals you’re

taking things that naturally within the

blood because you’re trying to prevent

a clot so just some things to think

with steve all right very good and by

the way we’re going to bring up

kelvin from the uk but one more question

before we do that

on youtube we’ve got uh loa who asks

hello doctor how do i get rid of mild

headaches and earache post

covid so a lot of people suffering from

various things

after they’ve had covet any tips or

suggestions please

well if there’s an ear problem involved

there’s a couple reasons why that is now

there could be like a fungus

growing in the ear which then can cause

headaches for sure

so you take a drop of um

colloidal silver in the ear and or

garlic oil that would help if it is that

and the other thing that

could affect the ear is a deficiency of

b1

which by the way will help the smelling

your your sense of smell as well b1 but

you need to take in a fat soluble

vitamin because

it’s it’s affected the the neurons in

the brain

so you want to take something called

benfotamine that’s a

fat soluble b1 for that

which also by the way is really good for

ring ringing in the ears

as far as the headaches go i have a lot

of videos on that

i would check the gallbladder and

there’s a little cool thing you could if

you

if you press underneath the right rib

cage

while you have a headache and your head

it gets better then we know

there’s a problem with the phrenic nerve

that comes on the right side

especially the headaches on the right

side down to the gallbladder and it’s a

little congested so there’s something

that you’re eating that’s aggravating

the gallbladder

so it’s congested it’s pinching the

nerve that’s going right up to your head

on the right side

so i give a lot of advice on that too

but a lot of times those headaches are

coming from the digestive system

that’s interesting i’ll tell you i had

cove it over a year ago with millions of

others

and uh i did not lose my sense of smell

but things

tasted different and often horrible

any sweeteners even sugar or whatever i

could not stand i tried and i was

drinking my iced tea

without straight up without any kind of

sweeteners because it tasted absolutely

gross so it’s really bizarre

the kind of different effects that covet

unlike the sort of common flu or cold

have

on the human body so who knows what’s

going on in there you know

eighty percent of your taste is uh comes

from the smell

and when the cobia gets into the sinuses

and it uh destroys some of the neurons

that go to the optic nerve in your brain

i’m not the optic nerve the

olfactory bulb which is all neurological

and all of a sudden then you now your

taste kind of goes away and

sometimes the smell goes away sometimes

it doesn’t so in that case

take a lot of zinc and benfotamine

is the answer for that one unless

there’s um that

fungus that can actually grow as well

and affect people which

which the case you want to do organic

oregano oil that’s the thing you need

sounds terrific why don’t we go to

kelvin in the uk kelvin

you’re on with dr byrd hi kevin

hello can you can you hear me well or

yes

i can actually bring it perfectly great

that’s

that’s amazing okay um i spoke to you

in january um and

i i saw one of your videos it’s an older

video

a young child who had you know migraines

and

so forth it’s called that it was one of

your videos uh

named something acupuncture i believe

it’s a very uh

old video one of your old videos um

basically i was diagnosed with a

benign tumor in 2015.

i had a i have every six months i have a

mri

um basically what happened was

any time i would consume food it’s as if

i’m being poisoned

so i’m um bedridden

i i’ve been taken to the hospital at my

height

twice to a week

um and the submerge

basically what would happen was extreme

extreme vomiting

like over 70 times in one day extreme

diarrhea over 50 times in one day it’s

as if knives are being pushed through my

eyes and a truck sitting on my head

absolute agony until i pass out with

pain

i’m found on the floor unconscious for

three to four days at a time

i spoke to yourself and you encouraged

me to look into tudka

that’s absolutely

changed my life in regards to me i’m

elite

i’m able to consume at least one meal

a day before the symptoms uh

at least one day before something get

back on top of me again

because prior to this i was unable to

consume

anything i was just surviving on

basically just fruits anything other

than fruits

i would go into this absolute convulsing

almost being poisoned um and the doctors

have tried

everything uh i used to be into

weightlifting i was very

you know a strong athletic individual

and they’ve tried everything they’ve

looked into everything and

they’ve absolutely found nothing the

closest

thing to normality has been the tadka

which you’ve uh mentioned and

i can go with one meal every odd day

anything more than that

i just get thumped and it’s

it’s it’s it’s it’s not life worth

living

it’s it’s uh it’s it’s bad it’s it’s

it’s really

really bad it’s like really really bad

wow

amazing uh yeah uh

yeah you you’ve changed my life with

just

tadka and i you are literally

right there you know what the

issue is but it’s just

can get away with now for the first time

it was so emotional to actually be able

to eat

a meal in almost like it feels like

years

and i’ve kind of almost been on

keto with me some you know when i get my

when i test to see if i’m in ketosis

i’m pretty much in ketosis because i’m

pretty much just fasting

all of the time and then it’s broken

with mostly fruits

wow so with the tata i’ve been able to

get away with at least

a meal that’s awesome you know for those

people that don’t know what tutka is

it’s um now they make it a synthetic

version of bear bile

which is a it’s a type of bile salt and

it’s quite remarkable because it’s one

of those things that i recommend

for very very wild bizarre

symptoms that you can’t figure out and

you’ve tried everything and nothing’s

worked

and you try this and it works and it

what it does is it

opens up the bile ducts in your liver to

allow more drainage

so i mean it goes beyond that but it’s

uh

that way you have less toxins coming

back up it’s an anti-inflammatory

i think you may want to make sure you’re

doing

two tatka in the morning two in the

afternoon both an empty stomach and you

may even

when you eat that meal take regular bile

salts

right after the meal so that can

actually help yourself as well

and then do more things to support your

liver for example

choline might be something that would be

good for you fermented

vegetable might be okay um i think you

might benefit too from

it’s called keto aminos that i have

simply because it’s

you don’t have to break down protein

it’s just giving you those

um essential amino acids that you you’re

not getting from the fruit

or other food because you’re having a

hard time just getting

the right nutrients you’re going to have

to maybe add more nutrients to

make sure you have enough amino acids

make sure you have enough fatty acids

make sure you have enough vitamins but

it’s hard for you to get it from food

right now

i think over time things are going to

get better where you can actually do

more and more foods

but that is awesome i i love it and i’m

so happy for you that’s so great

thank you very much there i i i

appreciate so

just to close it off it was you said

choline yeah choline

choline is actually in bile salts it

helps the liver

um i always find that um

regardless of how sick a person is they

the choline helps them it’s like oh that

gives me it gives me relief it opens up

the liver allows for drainage

all right thank you thank you thank you

very much for the work you do

i really appreciate it thank you very

much you’re welcome my pleasure

and i would love to have you add your

success story to my website one thing

that i

i rarely ask for which i’m starting to

now is

definitely send us your success stories

i have a button on our webpage

that you can write your success story

because i want to read these success

stories

we’re getting so many successes all over

the place

but i’d like to actually have them on

our website

that would be awesome so um

those of you that are experiencing great

results just go to the website and enter

your success story

i’m going to be talking about them i’ll

post them and i want to read all of them

and we have i think we have a little

more than 4 thousand

uh we have a few more to go till we hit

the target of 1 million

so um i need your help our we need to

quickly

get more of these on the website well i

tell you what dr berg you know i embrace

and many people do medical science to

the degree that they can help but

so often doctors just seem to give up

they may have

a remedy somewhere in their textbooks or

whatever but i just don’t think they do

the research and i know for a fact they

don’t do the research that you do so dr

berg

you know is not inventing these things

he does enormous amount of research

starting from four a.m in the morning

and region region reads and finds out

what things

help people so um you know

from that you get a story uh like kelvin

who you know in spite of all the great

you know

uh doctors uh uh in the uk there

they couldn’t seem to help him and dr

berg did so we need to keep an open mind

about

treatment there’s a lot of holistic and

a lot of natural things that

indeed do you know keep us a lot

healthier so

we all salute you dr berg for your

tenacious

you know research and it pays tremendous

dividends so that’s terrific i tell we

should probably go

to another uh or excuse me answer a quiz

question that we have here

and it is uh what does our body need

sulfur

from the diet why do we need that and

the 75

say better joint health 15 say liver

detoxification and 10 percent say

improved immune system just how smart

are they on this question doc

they’re all smart because one of the

most important things for software is

detoxification

and there’s two very important

amino acids that are made from sulfur

methionine and cysteine

and those are involved in making

glutathione which is

the most one of the most important

detoxifying antioxidants that we have of

the liver

so the software foods which by the way

um you might think garlic onion

brussels sprouts cabbage you’re correct

you’re going to get softer from that for

sure

and you need to get your sulfur from

that but there’s other things that

actually

have a better absorbable form of

sulfur and that would be from the animal

products so if

you’re watching and you’re vegan you’re

gonna have a

not the optimum chance of getting the

type of software that you need because

um i mean think about it’s like eggs

like rotten eggs you ever tasted well

that’s because the sulfur of course you

don’t want to eat rotten eggs but eggs

have a good sulfur meat seafood

all have higher amounts of sulfur

so i would do a combination of those

foods

fish and meats and eggs and cheese as

well as

these cruciferous type vegetables

especially the um

the cabbage but brussels sprouts loaded

with sulfur

garlic onions makes your breath really

great

and fresh but um

yes the sulfur is good for also your

joints

chondroitin sulfate you ever hear that

that’s for the joints

um but also for detoxification if you

don’t have sulfur you can’t break down

poisons um if you take uh cinnamidified

cinemidified

for like pain relief in your whatever so

for whatever joint problem you have

because you’re low in sulfur probably

you’re going to use up a lot of your

sulfur and your glutathione so

you’re going to have to replace that or

you’re going to become very deficient in

sulfur

and then now you can’t detoxify that

drug

and so it builds up in the body so

anything

toxic wise the more toxic you are the

more sulfur you need

and especially sulfur is good for the

phase one phase two detoxification

to get rid of things that cause cancer

poisons that cause cancer so um

you know that’s what sulfur does steve

well that’s really interesting uh

here why don’t we answer this question

or ask it doc go ahead

what is the number one exercise for

easing depression

okay so if you’re depressed what is the

absolute

best exercise you can do right now for

the most relief

that’s the question right speaking of

questions colleen from facebook wants to

know

what are your thoughts about liposomal

vitamin c did i say that way

right yeah yeah it’s a type of form of

of certain vitamins not just vitamin c

that they actually can

wrap it into a lipid form and it’s uh

it can be absorbed in the body with

various tissues a little bit better

but the problem is what are you wrapping

in that lipid

uh most people with vitamin c they’re

wrapping an ascorbic acid

which is really just one part of the

vitamin c complex it’s

it’s the antioxidant portion but what

about the other parts of the vitamin c

complex

i like or i recommend taking vitamin c

from a food base where it has the whole

complex the

bioflavonoids the enzyme the tyrosinitis

enzyme that has copper in it

the k factors the the j factors which

are like the anti-pneumonia factor of

the vitamin c complex so there’s

vitamin c in nature comes in a whole

bunch of different parts it doesn’t come

in one

synthetic version ascorbic acid

there is some benefits benefit to taking

a large dose of ascorbic acid for

various things but

for overall vitamin c health i don’t

recommend it because it can create

deficiencies of the other factors

i had this guy who

did some research and he says oh yeah

i’m gonna go to mexico i have cancer i’m

gonna

get like over a hundred thousand

milligrams of vitamin c injected into my

body

and um i don’t know if it actually

helped him but i do know when he came

back

he had severe deficiencies of

bioflavonoids because he started getting

like um

varicose veins and spider veins and

all over his body it was really really

weird that’s uh that’s the deficiency of

the bioflavonoids

because he took too much of the ascorbic

acid which can throw the vitamin c out

of balance

now there’s a lot of controversy and i

know there’s going to be certain people

who disagree with that

because there’s this or that i’m just

telling you what i’ve observed and

what i’ve seen before so if you’re

taking vitamin c

taking the whole form just as nature has

provided it

so more ain’t always better right doc i

mean that’s not always the case

no no it’s not especially if it’s out of

the normal complex

go with what nature does it gives you

the whole complex

and it might be in lower dosages but

it’s more functional

than a high potency synthetic version

or part of a vitamin that’s in high

levels of fraction like

like most of the

vitamins sold at 100 days they have this

high potency synthetic

beef complex that’s like 13

you know thousand times more than the

normal amount well really it’s made from

petroleum is that really helping you um

so it’ll knock out some of the other

factors

well that’s terrific and julian from

facebook wants to know

what nutrients does she think she’s

lacking maybe she has too little of

something she’s continually having

dry feet and her toenails are in really

bad shape how can we help gilligan

you know these things i would make sure

that you’re on healthy keto and

intermittent fasting first because

uh you’re treating the symptom but in

the like for example that could be

coming from omega-3 fatty acid

deficiency you can come from a lack of

vitamin b2 which

creates cracked skin

especially on your heels it could come

from

low zinc so i would make sure that your

diet is corrected also if there’s a

toenail fungus or whatever that that

could come from the gut that messes up

your

your nails if your nails are split

that is a calcium deficiency if you have

these little white specks on your nails

that’s a calcium deficiency but it’s

usually a period of time where you ate a

lot of carbohydrate that

depleted that and now it showed up as a

white spot right in the middle of your

nail

so we know about three months ago

because that’s how fast the nail well

grows every six months three months ago

you had a huge

birthday you ate it you ate the whole

cake that’s how i can predict

what people ate just look at the nail

and see what’s happening and

you can tell what time frame they did

that interesting we’re running out of

time

speaking of time frame let’s go to the

answers so the question was what’s the

number one

exercise for easing depression in our

audience 75

say long walks outside 10 percent say

running 10 say dancing and 5

say yoga and meditation are they on the

right track doctor

well i think that um they’re all correct

um but here’s the thing steve

when someone’s depressed what are they

doing

they’re basically they stop moving right

there there’s no motion

so there’s a relationship between their

motion and their mood

i will guarantee it’s

virtually impossible to feel depressed

if you’re moving fast and so the

exercise that you’re

that has the fastest motion is the best

for depression and that would be

sprinting running then comes jogging

i mean you watch forrest gump steve

right i mean

you know how this works it goes for a

run and all of a sudden a year later

he has no more depression but um yeah

anything aerobic exercising

um type dancing high intensity interval

training

versus weight training which is a slower

motion

so you want fast type body motion to

to do if you’re depressed

especially also if you’re sleeping at

night

and you’re getting enough energy it’s

very difficult to be depressed

but when someone’s depressed they

basically stop moving

and they’re usually in bed just laying

there

motionless so that’s just a tip try it

out

see if it doesn’t help you um and um

i will be doing a video on that too of

course you will doc hey listen we’re

out of time why don’t you uh take us out

of here and we’ll play our little jingle

thanks for all of your questions and

your attention watches i really

appreciate you guys stay tuned

have some fascinating videos come up

this next week i will see you

next week

[Music]

you
