💦 Healthy Water: Which is BEST WATER to Drink 💦
Vložit
- čas přidán 19. 04. 2019
- What is the healthiest water to drink? An important question. We should probably think back to what our ancestors had to drink. Ideally, they would drink collected rain water, distilled by the sun and devoid of any contaminants. If they couldn't get distilled, they would drink ground water, preferably from moving water. Full of minerals, but potentially containing dangerous bacteria and/or viruses.
Today we don't have to worry very much about parasites, bacteria and/or viruses in our water, but we do have to worry about plastics, chemicals, and other toxins in our water. Municipal water is often over chlorinated or over fluoridated, both of which can lead to long-term health problems. The healthiest drinking water contains none of these things.

Do you recommend any reverse osmosis purifiers?
This is the Reverse Osmosis we use: amzn.to/38Bchs9
Would you recommend the 50gdp or 100gdp
@@KenDBerryMD aside from the reverse osmosis, we have a lot in common.
@@KenDBerryMD why is this different from the one you have in your description?

I’ve been drinking distilled water for 30 years. I’m 71 and take no medicine. Have no aches or pain. Just went back to a full time teaching job, lol.
Awesome!
Do you take any calcium? If yes, pill form or natural source? Thank you. P. S. How is your eyesight and health of your eyes generally? Has it improved since you started drinking pure water 30 years ago?
CallMeNumber8 no, but if you do be sure to take K2 with it. I wear glasses for reading only.
You are 71 and you use "lol" 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@TSunshineful how much DW do you drink per day also do yuo eat salt? if yes what type and how much per day?
Thank You... For taking the time to put this very important information out there.
I have been an Exercise Therapist and Holistic Nutritionist for nearly 30 years, and I still find it quite sad how many people have practically no interest in their true health, and then constantly complain about 'getting old' and having all kinds of pains and ailments.
So many people will join a gym and start doing a little bit of exercise, which is definitely a good start, but they will not get serious about their food and water intake. And even more people have no understanding of the value of quality massage therapy and proper stretching, as well as very simple meditation practices.
I do my best, one client at time, to help educate those who are willing to listen.
And it's very satisfying when I get a client who actually listens and continues to ask questions.
Good luck to all of you looking to improve your health.
I started Keto in February and I’m 6’2” and I was 253lbs. Today, thanks to Dr Berry, I’m down to 208lbs, blowing my primary care doctor’s mind! Dr Berry is absolutely the best doctor that I have ever heard!
What do you eat? And do you skip breakfast and lunch to only one meal a day?
That’s awesome! What does your diet consist of? I have type 2 diabetes. I’m 6’3 284 lbs currently
I modified the keto and it still worked 50 pound loss in a year. No extra exercise. Eliminate rice, bread and pasta from your diet. Don't eat bad oils, only olive, walnut, avocado oils. A small bite of fruit a day, fruit is sugar. NO sugar.
He didn't answer your questions so I'll answer.
I eat whenever I'm hungry which is basically two meals a day between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. I will drink a couple of cups of coffee in the morning with heavy cream. Then I eat my first meal sometime between 10 a.m. and noon. I eat my second meal sometime between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m.
I primarily eat beef but I eat other animal products such as pork lamb chicken turkey eggs and butter and cheese. I do eat nuts although some carnivores don't. I like almonds cashews walnuts pistachios and peanuts but if they are roasted I make sure that there was no vegetable or seed oil used in that process.
The key is to omit carbohydrates and sugars including fruit. Read the labels on everything that you buy because they put sugar in so many foods including your peanut butter so buy the natural peanut butter.
The meat fully satisfies you for many hours so you don't feel hungry again until your second meal or until your first meal the next day. Eat until you're comfortably full.
After doing this for a few months all excess body fat burned off of my body. Now I can see my abdominal muscles which I haven't seen in decades. I don't understand how this works because it seems that if I'm eating red meat with saturated fats that I would get fatter but the opposite happened to me. I'm not going to argue with it because the results told me that it works on me. I listened to these people on CZcams and then I did the experiment on myself and it worked. I don't have to believe what anybody else says because I just try it and see if it works. I don't believe anybody but myself.
This mimics my story.
I’m 6’1” was 245 in February.
Stopped eating all high glycemic foods
Cut Bread, Potatoes, Rice, Pasta and anything with sugar in it including fruits.
Ate mostly fatty meats plus low glycemic vegetables.
Dropped 30lbs in less than three months.
Mostly eat between 2pm - 7pm
Many days only eat once.
Never felt better!!
Hello Dr. Berry! I found your video about "The Dangers and Benefits of Alkaline Water" very interesting and educational. One thing I try to do is take care of my health. I have Epilepsy Seizures which was hereditary from my father's side of the family in which I have both petit mal and grand mal seizures. Also, I have stomach ulcer, acid reflux, and high triglycerides. I take prescription medications for all of these specific conditions. I used to work in a warehouse and ended up having a seizure on the job. My previous neurologist/epileptologist mentioned to me that I was drinking the wrong type of water. This is what was offered at my old job at the time in the warehouse. They either would provide the brands of Dasani, Aquafina, and/or Crystal Geyser. I lived in a different state at the time when my seizure occurred. He told me that a person with Epilepsy Seizures is supposed to drink Alkaline Water or PH balanced water. I moved to a different state back in 2022 and currently do a remote job sitting down as an ESL Teacher and Academic Tutor. I do walk everywhere by exercising just to let you know. I was informed by a medical professional the following things: "Alkaline Water can raise your blood pressure due to it having sodium in it." Some questions I have for you are as follows: Is it true that Alkaline Water has sodium in it? Is it true that Alkaline Water can raise your blood pressure? What do you think is the best type of water for me to drink due to my health condition? The only reason I switched to drinking alkaline water was so that way my seizures would stay under control, have enough electrolytes in my body, and I would stay hydrated. Many times when I have drunk Drinking Water, Purified Drinking Water, or Mountain Spring Water this hasn't kept me hydrated enough. All the seizures I have had previously were mostly because of either me already being dehydrated, having dehydration beforehand, or due to stress. What are your suggestions and recommendations?
So my husbands question to me was...”what do you mean your new Doctor is a youtube Doctor?” Yep, I no longer trust my personal doctor.
Yep, I got the same response. Somehow, the fact that a bona fide Board Certified GP who has a land-based practice becomes some kind of unreliable quack just because he has a social media account -- go figure! In reality, I trust Dr Ken Berry more than any of the doctors I have visited in recent years. He makes more sense, and backs it up with fact which can be independently checked. Being on social media just means he is accessible to me, even though I am now living in the UK. Keep Calm and Keto On!
I still like my Doctor. I believe he does his best with what he was taught. Today because of CZcams and people like Dr. Berry, I have the authority to tell the Doctor what I will not take or do. Because of the results he is seeing in me, He has become very open to what I am doing.
I'm with you but never ever trusted, "them", the Western Dr.
😊👍
Agreed Linda, my Doctor doesn't know an ass from an elbow!"
The Chief Engineer at a Texas city water processing plant once said (I heard): "We don't test the water for the presence of medications, pesticides or herbicides because there is no regulation to do so and we're not sure what we'd do about it if we found some'
That's a little frightening.
@@annabelalford804 It's a *lot* frightening!
You're right, water treatment plants aren't going to test for parameters they aren't required to test for in order to stay in compliance. It just is what it is. Hope that your local municipality uses R.O. to treat their water.
@@jjlritchie or demand so! And maybe fight to change the regulations so that they HAVE to test for these things that can harm us! We've all got a voice, let's use it!
This is why I have a water distiller.
My city's water is from the Mississippi river and everything production plants dump into it from up stream
I have used A five stage R. O. water filter for years, besides the water dispenser faucet it also feeds the refrigerator water dispenser and ice maker. The first scheduled filter replacement at 3 months convinced me I was on the right track. The no 1 pre filter was a disaster, it looked like the stuff you see growing in a swamp. I will not by bottled water of any form.
Why am I just finding your videos? I feel like I needed this information a long time ago. Thank you!
1. Distilled water
2. RO water
3. Bottled water in glass
4. Spring water without contaminants
*Add electrolyte drops to distilled/RO water*
Can add a table spoon of sea salt

Thanks
Thank you for this!!! It’s something many gurus are afraid to address for fear of disagreement by some other guru. Thanks for publishing this position based on your research. Helps me immensely.
Thank you! As a chemistry teacher, this is a topic that causes a lot of confusion to students. The concepts (and the difference between) concentration and pH of acid or base are used interchangeably and incorrectly in society. Thank you again for the scientific/common sense approach to all of your topics!
the whole stomach ph argument is just not accurate. Yes your stomach acids are extremely low in ph, but that does not mean that it doesn't matter what ph you keep putting into your body. See, your stomach has to create that very low ph in your stomach, and to create that very low ph, it changes your overall body ph. There have been plenty of tests showing that an over consumption of acidic (low ph) foods have negative impacts on the body. High ph water requires your body to produce more acid to neutralize the high ph, and so that in turn decreases your overall body acidity.
Yes the water and food ph is neutralized, but because they are neutralized, your body had to reduce its overall acidity to do so. This is something that most people and by most I mean 99.9% get wrong. PH absolutely does matter. Just because your stomach acids neutralize it, does not mean it has no effect on your overall body ph.
Hope someone found this info useful.
I personally drink filtered ionized water with a ph of 9.0, to counter all the acidic food I consume. (most food is overly acidic).
@XxchristianxX17 please provide a peer reviewed paper stating that what I said is literal bs.
Is this how you talk to everyone?
We don't think that way, and we don't communicate in this way.
Just because there isn't a research paper on some specific thing, does not mean something isn't true. There is common practice, and that was the guiding factor for the majority of human history.
Most research papers are funded by for profit organizations and are biased.
Who will spend millions of dollars researching something that doesn't make money when they can spend that money to research something that does make money.
You have too much confidence in this "research".
Hope you didn't get the 5 boosters.
@XxchristianxX17 Also, being a doctor means nothing. Many doctors will say contradicting things, and have vastly different opinions on all this stuff. Just saying, thats a fact.
@@Chemike21I would like to know where you learned that.
I'm going to research as well.
@@XxchristianxX14y personal doctor and most that I have worked with know next to nothing about nutrition and haven't learned physiology as far as metabolism is concerned. They are algorithm followers and Rx writers.They do not deserve to be put on a pedestal. They do not think critically and as a scientist should think.
Dr Berry is an exception, and I consider him one of the very few I trust.
I am also skeptical of the comment you responded to.
Thank you thank you thank you Dr. Berry! Appreciate you and all that you do! Great video and we all appreciate the time you take doing the research and bringing us the wisdom! Was just getting ready to dive in and start researching this topic myself. Thanks again!! 🙏👍
Dr. Ken- Your awesome. Thanks for keeping it real and drama/ego free. More power to you!!!
I live in a rural area and I collected rain water in clean glass containers. Almost 100% of the time it tasted like burnt rubber. I've heard this from folks from other areas. Rain water these days can have a host of nasty contaminants.
Where
@@theancientsam everywhere. Geoingenering = look it up
Chemtrails
@@andradeb2695 that’s what I was thinking too.
When you catch rain 🌧 from composite roofing materials on your roof, it is rubber, asphalt, fiber, etc. I just use it to keep garden soil moist but wonder if thats even a good idea. 🤔 Metal roof safer I would assume but ya, those chemtrails always there.
I've been drinking distilled water for the last year and one thing that I don't have anymore is heartburn! I bought a counter top distiller, holds about a gallon, and takes about 2.5 hours to distlil out. I've run about a thousand gallons through it, and my body is so much better, ( Not a cure all), but I am older as well (55). My coofee pot has not been cleaned since, no deposits, so think for a second, that's not in my body! I also have a Grid down filter system that I can throw together, and filter out mud puddles, and get very clean drinking water, incase of something crazy! Not a berky, but home made and can do much more! Do your homework! Crazy times! God Bless!
❤️ the truth you promote!! You are the first health care provider that I’ve ever heard promote distilled water. I have been drinking distilled for years after doing my own research!
Plastic also leaves residue in the water and plastic particulates. So yes, avoid! Our tap water here is from a glacier. Never any issues with it .
And thanks for all your wonderful advice. I’m a better, healthier physically and mentally person in part due to your great advice. 🙂
My two choices are the stinky smelly stuff that comes out of my tap or plastic bottles. I opted for the plastic because it doesn't smell and it doesn't taste bad. And I don't buy filtered water I buy specific spring water
Glacier is probably as good a source as any but don't trust a product name. know the source. Glacier as a brand means nothing. And remember even glacial water was exposed to contaminants over the eons. Volcanic ash can settle on snow and be integrated into the glacial mass. Volcanic ash can contain all kinds of poisons like arsenic and others but likely better than the man made poisons we have dumped everywhere in our environment.
We gonna start calling you the myth buster i was looking for this video for a long time love it man
I like the way you think about stuff and that you actually are a doctor, do you research, and back it up. I mean most of the stuff doesn’t really need a ton of backing up just a little common sense but I like that you talk about it
Dear Dr. Berry, thank you so much! Now I'm twice happier that I drink distilled water for about a year now. I'm not even speaking about the better taste of my coffee/tea. Thanks to remove any minor doubts!
Another insightful video. I started following you in January when I began Keto. I'm down 42 lbs. in 108 days and I feel great. Thank you. Could you do a video on what your diet consists of for a week? Happy Easter and Thanks again for educating me without pushing products.
Thanks for the facts on the acidity of coffee and tea once they hit the belly.
Good to know! Glad I was on track. I enjoy all your videos. You speak so clearly I watch them at 2x speed.
Great, you are confirming what we have been doing for about 30 years. We have a reverse osmosis system and use this water for cooking, drinking, making coffee and tea. Thanks for the good advice we are still on the best path.
This is an awesome video Dr Berry! Please keep up the good work! I also drink distilled water for many many years and only seen the benefits of it!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! You're the first doctor that has said this.
You just confirmed something that I've been saying for years - chlorine and fluoride in tap water can block absorption of iodine; also bromine (preservative in grain products). Just look at a periodic table.
We couldn't put an reverse osmosis system in our house - cost and family trust stuff.
So, what I do is to put tap water into my 1 gallon glass jars, add cilantro, basil or parsley, cover with a cloth, and let sit overnight. When I get up in the morning, I remove the plant matter and put it into compost can (it absorbed the fluoride) and stir to break up any bubbles on the side of the jars (chlorine gas is unstable and will evaporate out of water after a few hours, some may form bubbles on the side of glass or jar). Put the lids on and use them for cooking and drinking (1 goes into the fridge).
Easy peasy.
Thanks for all of your hard work researching and making the videos that share this much needed info.
Wow that's cost effective.
chlorine and flouride attack the immune system by blocking vitamine d3 spraying the sky with micro smart dust completely removed iodine from table salt crazy how 4 years later and we can see the depopulation agenda happening
It’s so sad what we’ve done to our beautiful planet that we can’t trust drinking rain water. 😢
I only drink my own urine because I know I can trust the source. ME. I'm 82 years young and am an avid rock climber and amateur MMA fighter who has won most of his fights. Big water doesn't want you to know about small urine and its chakra cleansing ions.
I make RO/DI water for my marine aquarium. We drink it almost exclusively. Glad to hear you approve.
COULD YOU PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON "SURGERY ON KETOGENIC DIET?" What should we do before and after to optimize healing. Thanks
Ingesting clean water is essential. We just installed a whole-house water filter system (not RO). It removes chlorine, chloramine, fluoride, heavy metals, pesticides, insecticides, viruses, fungi, volatile organic chemicals, etc. We are really happy with the taste of this water for drinking and cooking as well as knowing we are no longer showering or bathing in this chemically loaded water.
What system did you put in if it’s not reverse osmosis?
There are a lot of books that say fluoride is poisonous to us.
Thank you so much Dr. Berry!!! God Bless you!
I bought a ZEROWATER pitcher at Walmart. Local water tests at 300 ppm disolved solids in it. One pass through the filter pitcher and it tests out at zero ppm disolved solids. Water looks incredible in a glass. Tastes awesome. 22 dollars.
How many times do the filters need changing if it is cheaper than RO leasing than I need to change that after over 40 yrs of drinking ro water!
Zero water filters need to be changed like every 2 weeks. Way too expensive.
@@wolverine48126 So just stick with my RO lease where I get my system maintained for free when needed and filters changed out etc.
@@wolverine48126 I always get at least 3 months with my filters and I use it everyday

I held my breath when I read the title. When I watched your video I was super happy about what you had to say. I’ve been drinking distilled water for a year and a half no problems, love it.
Do you drink it in plastic water bottles? Does it clench your thirst for the whole day?
@@deadlymoonlight I have a countertop water distiller. I can distill a gallon of water for $.40 worth of electricity. It goes into a glass pitcher.

@@gaijincoordinator2922 You mean he is not perfect and is unworthy of adoration?
stop Idolising these medical workers. none of them can be trusted, always go for second or third opinion. they r ordinary humans just like us & can make mistakes.
Meg Sarna I’m going off of my labs. I don’t normally put trust in medical physicians, however, since I’ve been following Dr. Berry, my labs have improved SIGNIFICANTLY and even the doctors I work with, were amazed and clueless as to how my labs were so bad to now where there is no concerns whatsoever. Three years of tracking! He is highly intelligent and will remain my “go to” physician, until my doctors tell me, it’s no longer working for me. So far, they told me to keep doing what I’m doing and not change a thing. 😀
If there is zero research about reverse osmosis being negative to drink...why do they say its bad? 🤷
Do you use the trace mineral drops as well as the electrolyte drops?? I have been using the trace mineral stuff since you recommended it awhile back.
Great and informative video, Doctor...thank you. My chief concern is not so much about the water, but the infrastructure, that it's delivered through. Such as pipes (probably lead) that are possibly a century old! I'd appreciate your input on this concern. Thanks again!
Only in ghettos. Most places use PVC for delivery. You may find copper or iron in the home. The danger of copper is if they used lead solder rather than lead free
I’m 6’2” in February 2022 I weighed 330 pounds. I started watching Dr. Berry and doing Keto, IF, and Walking (although I’m not actively IFing). I now weigh 249 pounds. You literally have added years to my life. Thank You!
i in 2020 weighed 395 and fell and broke my right hip- they would not replaced my hip til i had weight loss so my doctor referred me to a clinic in the twin cities that did bariatric surgery so for a full year i had classes on that- a lifestyle change then 2 weeks before my gastric sleeve surgery i had to shrink my liver so was on a clear liquid diet- had the surgery and had to get down to 330 which i did- i had my hip replaced and i now weight around 250- i don't drink alcohol anymore- i don't even miss it- i just eat small portions, mostly protein- and drink alot of water- also keep drinking and eating separate within 30 minutes of one another- i walk to work- i walk on breaks. it's a lifestyle change- i used to wear 5xl shirts- now xl-l tall fits
I have both RO and distilled units in my home. This controversy is always on my mind since there seems to be so many so called experts out there. Thank you Dr Berry for confirming what I always thought to be the truth. I use the drops as well.
Nice what did you pay for the units
Distilled Pure Water will not conduct electricity when only 2 parts inorganic minerals or less are present. Water with 5 parts inorganic content per million parts water (or more) will conduct electricity, completing a simple circuit and lighting a tester bulb! The higher the inorganic content is in a per million count, the less effectively water transmits organic minerals to tissue sites. Bottled water, tapwater, reverse-osmosis filtered water, and carbon-block filtered water (when tested) will conduct electricity, substantiating that each one is not the best carrier for the mineral-transport and mineral-absorption (Muehling 1994). Our tapwater in the USA has been shown to contain 19 "inorganic metals of concern"(1994 Safe Water Drinking Act), for which maximum contaminant levels have been set. (Tone 1994) Most American tapwater tested falls between the ranges of 350 parts per million to over 1000 parts per million total contaminants! (Colgan 1993)
Thanks for the video!!!
Glad to hear RO water is safe and okay to drink. We have been using that for over 20 years. Tap water isn't safe anymore. When I was a child, tap water tasted great and was safe. Thanks for the great information Dr. Berry.
Thank you Dr Berry, always great information.

Shame he never answered this question
I've had a reverse osmosis for years.. its a 6 stage filter system..The 6th filter is a mineral filter so it adds minerals back into the water before you drink it. I love it
Do you have Apec also?
Add ionization and you’re Gucci!
The question is "what is the quality of those added minerals" by some filter 🤔

I live in London, UK. My local water is over 300ppm, RO filter is the best investment I’ve made for my home. My drinking water from the RO filter is less than 10ppm now. It’s made dramatic improvements in the taste of tea and coffee, no more scales from my kettle too.
Nice to know. Unfortunately our water (elsewhere in the UK) also tested at 330ppm the other day... and over 200 with an (old) Brita filter
What RO system did you get? Would be interesting to find out what is available in the UK.
Did you consider any specific brands or did you just buy whatever RO system was available to you?
If I don’t drink bad water 💦 I will die. 😂
Doc, you are an awesome resource. Hitting topics for the everyday quiet extremists... People need to read up and listen to the opinions of the professionals. Kudos Dr Berry. Great video.
As a missionary, exposed to many different waters and being "sensitive" to different waters, we have only used distilled water for almost 40 years and my bones are still in tact... a simple home steam distiller does the trick, and confessed, we drink plastic jug distilled water all along as necessary from travels, still kicking'..
what distiller do you use?
I appreciate your information you have given Dr. Barry regarding water and its usage since I can’t have a reverse osmosis system or sometimes distilled water I work with what I have and then prayed over it sharing my energy which haas helped me personally.
Thank you so much for all the research.
This is awesome! I been drinking distilled for over 10 years now and drink a good two litre a day!
PLEASE discuss Kangen water, as well as competitor ionizers. Specifically, ORP levels and their importance for bioavailability of mineral & water molecules.
These guys deserve the money they are owed as MDs thank you I've been looking for a team. Now I'm going to add you to my team. Thank you sir.
This is called good Ole fashion common sense
Great video, thank you Dr Berry.
There are so many things that get said. I hadn't heard about the zombie water that sucks minerals from your brain and bones. Thanks for making since of the myths
We have hard water here, it has chlorine but no flouride, hopefully never does. We've used a Brita filter for ages, it's also stopped the scum on our tea & coffee, tastes so much better too. It also saves your Kettle & Clothes Iron from all the limescale buildups & thus it's lifespan. Thanks so much for sharing this important information. Take care, & Happy Easter Sunday to you, yours, & everybody here. 🥚🐣🐥❤🙂🐶
Ive read up about Brita and found that it only removes bad taste of water but the stats of what contaminants it removes simply aren't there. PUR is better from what I learned
Consumer Labs reported higher levels of aluminium in water filtered with Brita filters. I have no association with either company though I do use Brita filters at home too.
Thanks mate, there is too much information on the internet and it is refreshing to find a straight forward answers.
Looking forward to water with no chemicals so I can knowingly add the ones my body needs.
I see that the filter you use has the option to add in minerals and a uv light. Do you use the uv and 5 stage mineral filter in your system, or do you recommend adding these to the osmosis system?
I have lived in in metropolitan my whole life. I always drink tap water, em milk, not any drink bought from the store .. I take the water in a plastic bottle and let it be for 5-10 days. When I drink from a bottle, I always shake to get oxygen into the water. I am 87 years old, only use cholesterol medication and sleeping pills.
I might add...stop over drinking water. This notion of drinking a gallon a day is just crazy shit. Drink when you’re thirsty, regardless the type of water. Great video, Dr berry .
absolutely true!!!
I like to boil my Brita water half a gallon at a time with celery stalk and cucumber, sieve and drink it throughout the day!
Okay tell me more why and what this does pleases 🙏 thank you 🙏😭
Thank you so much for putting out these videos. You are such an honest and great person you have a beautiful family God bless you all.
Great info doctor thank you
Thank you Dr. Berry for dispelling myths generated by " experts". What we put in our bodies can have a profound effect but we must get smart and real from whom/where we get our information! Thank heaven for the internet and caring people like you!
It took me TEN miserable years and much of my own research, to find out I am gluten sensitive! Gluten free diet was considered a fad back in the early 2000s! My symptoms were treated but never the cause! Not one Dr. I went to ever asked me about what I was eating. But in all fairness I didnt make the connection either until I had to go to ER the symptoms got so severe. Three bites of high gluten pizza crust put me in the hospital! The gut wrenching pain is indescribable, the n/v is incapicating, the headaches excruciating, etc, etc. The effects of gluten sensitivity are so numerous I won't even list them all here. The culprit is inflammation throughout the body caused by gluten ingestion. When an opthamologist diagnosed Tallosa Hunt Syndrome ( inflammation of cranial nerve 6 and 4, eye movement control nerves ) It started me on the research road to wellness and a gluten free diet, and now keto diet for weight control. I proved to myself gluten is the culprit by elimination and reintroduction diet control. A gluten free diet can be very carb dense and one tends to gain weight! I'm 81 years and most days I feel better than I did when I was 61 years! Told my Dr. I need a health advocate not a " boss" and he respects my health efforts and also believes me when I tell him what gluten does to my body! And I'm down to just one med for my persistent high blood pressure. Sorry about length of this post. Gluten sensitivity is NOT a myth or a fad, it is very real.
Thank you for the great video! What do you suggest for a whole home filtration system?
I live in Hernando, FL, and I love the city water I drink that has been filtered through the Berkey standard black filter and the anti-fluoride/arsenic white filter.
By the county ? I wonder if they do that here in miami, I doubt it
Thanks this is informative 👍
What are your thoughts on the safety of using permethrin to treat clothes to repeal insects, specifically ticks to limit exposure to Lyme disease? Thanks. Love your show especially the one on blood pressure. I have stopped taking one and reduced the strength of the other. Expect to be off entirely soon. Keto with intermittent fasting.
Glad you brought up plastic, I thought Fiji water was a safe option until I learned about how bad plastic is
Thanks Doc... takes a load off my mind :-)
P.S. how’s the weightlifting going?
Distilled water has always given me heart burn. And when I was working in the sun for 10+ hours a day distilled water always made me feel sick and slow. Then I started drinking mineral water and I felt much better. It seems for me when I'm out in the hot sun working hard mineral water is a better choice. That's just my experience though.
I’ve been drinking mineral water for the first time and I think I’m sleeping really well because of it
Since you’d likely be sweating out a significant amount of your electrolytes while working in the sun, your body will require a higher concentration of minerals/same electrolytes lost while sweating to rehydrate. It’s likely that distilled water does not contain enough minerals/electrolytes to hydrate you properly when compared to “normal water” such as municipal water. There is even more of a difference when comparing tap/municipal water to mineral water which contains increased amounts of the same electrolytes lost during sweating. As a result, consuming distilled water following sweating leaves you fatigued and nauseous because you are still dehydrated. Mineral water cures this feeling due to its proper offering of electrolytes. Hope this helps!
@@Jennifurdawn You might not be getting enough water soluble minerals in your diet. Doctors can do blood tests to determine that. Most get enough from their diet but it can also indicate other health problems do please see a doctor and have him test you. Low sodium or low potassium in your blood serum can be a serious issue. Also other ones as well. As a group we have been so sodium conscious for the last few decades that low levels of these minerals can be as bad as high levels anymore.
@@katrinalinder978 exactly. It is not the water that is the issue, but that you also need to replace the electrolytes as well. Back in they day we had "salt tablets" next to the water jug for that reason. They were really mineral tablets with sodium, magnesium and others. They stopped that due to most folks having too high a level of those minerals in their diet, but if you eat "heathy" today you have the right amount instead of the excess we had back then. Remember the folks who put half a salt shaker on one order of french fries??? We do not do that anymore so in high sweat situations you must supplement the water soluble minerals as well. Mineral water likely helps but might still be insufficient. Consult a doctor or pharmacist. Gatorade will also help but has other issues so I do not do that.
@@markpashia7067 I just wanna know what water to drink..
Great video! I recently change my water filter to Bottle-Less Water Dispenser. It's safe and water tastes better.
bless this man thank you for this❤️ i drink 5 gallons of poland spring a week so this was very important and helpful to me!
Dr. Berry, I have the exact same RO system as you but had a bad experience with GERD type symptoms for close to a year that went away within about a week after I stopped using the system. My cat was also experiencing vomiting which went way to after switching back to carbon filtered water from the tap. I had owned this system for 2 years and changed the filters about 10 months ago but did not sanitize the system when I did it. Is it possible that my RO system got contaminated and that was the issue? I'd really like to go back to using it but I'm hesitant to do so because the symptoms were so bad (In addition to heartburn, I also had facial itching and redness which is dissipating now too). Thanks for your great videos, I'm subscribed to your channel and think your videos are notch👌
Thanks Doc! I was just wondering about the best options as I’ve been really questioning tap water recently😂
A very important question I think!
What do you think of filtered pitchers for your home? Such as, Brita?
@@debrabarby2322 The best you can buy is a megahome water distiller forget the rest
@@debrabarby2322 With standard filter they do not do much but improve taste. Look at their advanced filters for more protection. Some have a five stage filter that actually will reduce lead somewhat but replacement filters are much more expensive at that level. Berkey seems to be the best I have learned about for home use but I could be wrong. So bottom line they are better than nothing but not going to get the cancer causing chemicals out. They do seem to remove some of the chlorine smell and taste. A lot of it depends upon what you put in, so check the EPA super fund site list for your area to know what has been found in your areas water table. That will help decide the risk you are taking. However always the risk of other unknown spills that do not show on the list. Clean water is always hard to find anymore.
Thank you for this. God bless you for covering this topic.
I use a Berkey system & used findaspring.... Now pick up water once a month ,in glass gallon jars fr our spring water source..
I agree with everything you said doc. About 4 years ago we moved to the country and are on a very deep well . We had it tested and it's all good and great tasting as well.
You are so lucky. Our well ran dry 😣 lasted my family about 80 years but dang I miss it. Hurts my heart every time i have to pay for water.
I'm so sorry.
Just know that the testing for wells is not for all pollutants. Might want to pay more for a full spectrum testing to be done. Last I checked no one was required to test for Round Up (Glyphosphate?) and some do not require testing for arsenic. Just a thought. No testing for most agriculture or industrial chemicals either. City tap water and well water is not generally tested for pharmaceuticals either. Happy dose of Prozac with your water? Or a nice shot of estrogen? Any and all of it can end up in the main water table of a deep well too. Sad but true. We must start demanding more at that state level who controls the testing.
@@markpashia7067 Our testing was comprehensive and full spectrum.
Dr. Berry: Let me start off by saying I freaking love you man! I have a question about the RO system you use/recommend though. It looks like it's made primarily of plastic. Won't the water coming from it have leeched toxins from the tank, water lines, filter housings, etc. ?
It’s usually made with a polyethylene so it’s less than normal plastic the system itself will take almost all of that out in final filtration and in a month or so it should be 99% flushed. What would you pay for a ro say 50gal per day. $25-$75 a month?
Thank you ! Very informative!
Great video. Thank you for posting.
Hi Dr. Berry, this video is 4 yrs old , so I was wondering if you still have the same filtration system now in 2023 or if others have come out that you like better since then. Also, what do you think of pitcher filters? Thank you!
I've seen a recent video of his where he recommends this same filter. I want to get it but I am a renter, so I have to make a hole in my countertop😢
@@whipsandchains1 not really. There are ones you place on the countertop
I currently buy still mineral water, bottled at source from a natural spring. Our tap water is clean, but it has been processed with chlorine which I can sometimes taste and smell and it also has flouride added. I prefer the water that comes direct from the mountain spring. I am also having a chlorine filter installed in the shower, where the smell of chlorine can sometimes be overpowering, to avoid absorbing the water treatment chemical "leftovers" through my skin.
Smart!
Our skin is our largest organ of absorption.
I needed this 😀 Thank you
Dr Berry, there are no notes listed below your video. Please tell me what reverse osmosis system you use. Very informative video. Thanks for all you share for good health.
I drink only Diamond Springs water...no tap water for 30 years
The company I work from makes millions of gallons of water a day. We filter and treat water for steam, cooling and process water. Proper treated, DI, distilled and RO water is critical to a health system for equipment and people. Very good video.
Just started using this. Amazing.
Thank you Doc for making this video. You got a new sub!
A side note about fluoride - I was diagnosed with perioral dermatitis. The only helpful advice I got from the dermatologist was use fluoride-free toothpaste. That was about 7/8 yrs ago. I don’t think it was fluoride alone causing it. I think the fluoride aggravated it. My whole immune system must’ve been overloaded, due to many issues while consuming the SAD. I still do not use flourish toothpaste on a daily basis. Over these last 7 yrs, every once in a while I would use regular toothpaste and the dermatitis would come back. Interestingly enough, in the last 6 months, I’ve gone low carb, very low grains (I’m working on eliminating) and even after a few days of fluoride toothpaste the dermatitis hasn’t come back!
Carbs are important, don't fast
@@X8X8X6X4X why are carbs important?
@@Mombrain006 Type in Danny Roddy and Ray Peat in CZcams and learn.
Carbs aren’t important and fasting is good for you. Name me an essential carb? I’ll wait.
Try the gundry anti inflammatory diet. That helped me with my psoriasis. Best wishes
Thank you so much for ALL your help and info. 💛👐🙏
I love my well water. Our well is 360 feet deep in the foothills of the Montana mountains. It's sand filtered, clear & tasty. I know that it has a good assortment of minerals since it comes from a sand layer, though we've never had it tested. And it comes out COLD
I use zero water filter. I add LMNT to water use Redmonds salt daily. Also re- lyte electrolytes. Daily minerals. My Dr. Is very happy with my check up
As far as only buying bottled water in glass bottles goes. I Haven't ever seen glass bottled water that didn't have a plastic lid unless it was mineral water. Which had a presumably aluminum twist cap.
Happy to see people aware of water quality and distilled water... But... Caring about health and wearing headphones with bluetooth or wifi??? EMF through the brain... Take care Ken
Doc what do you recommend for the rest of the water throughout the home? Tub/Shower filters
Thanks
