2:40 Itching of the bottom of your foot indicates a backup of fluid into the liver
4:44 Here are some causes of liver problems
5:40 I recommend a good diet for your liver
Because liver problems often show up in your feet, I explain the signs and symptoms to look for. For a full diagnosis of liver disease, please see your doctor.
Red and brown dots, which can also be shiny, can appear on the lower leg. This indicates poor circulation. It could also be diabetes, but you see this a lot in people with liver problems.
You may also see spider veins (spider nevus). This can be an indication of too much estrogen in the liver. If your heels are cracked, this is usually a vitamin B3 deficiency or an omega 3 fatty acid deficiency. One function of the liver is to make bile to help your body absorb fatty acids including vitamin A and vitamin E.
Itching on the bottom of your foot indicates a backup of fluids into the liver. For example, if bile backs up and your liver is congested, you could be getting a build up of histamines.
Pain or inflammation in the bottom of the foot often mimics plantar fasciitis, but can be a liver problem. You can also have hot feet, and bad odor when your liver can’t detoxify correctly so toxins are leaking out through your skin.
Usually if someone’s liver is bad, it means their diet is bad, and their body is full of toxins. Chances are, if your liver is bad so too are your kidneys and colon.
If you have pitting edema is also a common liver symptom. You may also have toenail fungus. People with liver problems often have more fungus in and on their body, due to an imbalance of their gut microflora. You may also experience dandruff and psoriasis. Your nail beds turn white.
Common causes of liver problems include medications, sugar (especially high fructose corn syrup), cooked foods, too few vegetables, excessive alcohol, and excessive protein.
A healthy ketogenic diet combined with intermittent fasting is best for a healthy liver.
Now you know how to spot liver problems, understand their causes, and how to get your liver healthy again.

Great to hear! 🏅🏆
You've gone 8 months then your definitely on your way to a better life for yourself.🙂👍
I’m down to about 2-3 bottles of wine a week. Slowly but surely.
I’ve been doing intermittent fasting for over a year and healthy keto for 8 months, lost 35 lbs and healing my liver and gallbladder. I used to have horrible pain in my stomach radiating to my back thinking it was heartburn. I learned from Dr Berg it was my gallbladder and those symptoms are gone now that I’ve changed my diet. I feel great and no longer overweight for my petite frame, thank you, Dr. Berg !
This man is not just the best doctor I've ever come across, but also the best teacher!

I used to have very cracked heels. I had to go low carb, no sugar 10 months ago. While watching this video I realized my heels are completely normal now. I've had a lot of encouragement watching these teachings.
Thank you for you experience strength & hope🌞
Thakn you Dr.
What else besides the keto diet did you do to heal your cracked heels?
@@wolftijuana I have been getting treatment in an alternative medical model called " Muscle Response Testing" It essentially is using natural foods and supplements to restore your bodies ability to heal itself and diagnose hinderences to that process. I've been doing the program which for me includes no carbs or sugars for over a year and I am well from an extreme inflammation and skin issue.
@@dublinbirdhanson1232 okay I’ll look into that. Thank you! 🙏
I just needed to come here and comment. I’ve had awful plantar fasciitis for the past 6 months. Nothing seemed to fix it. I bought new shoes, stopped working out for 2 weeks, iced and massaged my feet everyday, started wearing really thick socks to protect my feet, just anything you could think of. I watched this video a couple weeks ago and decided to try intermediate fasting along with a whole foods diet. I’m on the 10th day and my feet don’t hurt anymore. I can walk barefoot without pain. It’s really crazy, I still can’t believe it. I’m going to keep up with the diet. I never want to experience this type of pain again. Thanks so much for this video. I never would have thought that my diet was causing my feet to hurt.
Are you still pain free? This is an amazing testament!
@@MK-ih6wp I would say I’m 90% pain free. My feet and ankles are still stiff when I wake up in the morning. They feel much better after I stretch them out. I’ve actually started walking outside again. I hope I’ll be 100% pain free after losing a bit more weight. I’m 18 Ibs down after doing a healthy keto for about 6-weeks.
Dr. Berg, The world would be a much better place if all doctors were as knowledgeable as you about nutrition and the healing power of food. Thank you for sharing and caring.
I am 66. Been on KETO since January when I was diagnosed with a FATTY Liver... Down 73 lbs. And SURPRISE, SURPRISE, my toe nail Fungus that I've battling for 3 + YEARS is now almost ALL GONE! I actually started taking pictures of my toe to document the changes. I was AMAZED.
Dr. Berg can be trusted. I've never met the man, but his studies are exactly ON TARGET. THUMBS UP.
PaintmanJohn did your fatty liver go away?
@@23lESHt0WN12 Quite honestly, I don't know. I had an Ultrasound in April, and it was very visible then. (Remind you, I started Keto in January). My next physical will be in April. My doctor MAY or MAY NOT order another Ultrasound. I'm on Medicare now, so who knows. I would speculate that it will take more than 1 year to heal my liver. Perhaps Dr. Berg can give a better answer.
Really?!? I've done lots of IF but never really considered Keto.. I've had a foot fungus since I was probably 13 years old. I just accepted that my family gets it and that we just seem to have poor circulation in our hands and feet. My new years resolution was to tackle all the little health things Ive been ignoring for years,(I'm 32) and to actually get my health in check.
Thank you for your comment. I've never heard of nail fungus being cured with Keto/IF. I might just have to give keto a try!!
@@Yourfriendinendtimes good luck! Let us know how you're doing!
@@Yourfriendinendtimes fungus eats sugar
I am 58 years old. I was 380 and started KETO lost 40lbs and now 340 and my vascular problems in my feet are starting to subside. Pitting edema is almost gone, neuropathy in my feet have decreased. I am feeling better but a long way to go. But I am loving the food lifestyle. Not missing sugar, bread pasta or grains. I have 2 friends started because of seeing how I am doing. I create my own recipes, cooking from scratch and posting on FB. LOVING KETO!!!!! Thank you for all the advice.
Ellen done mate. Keep up great work..the Dr is fantastic isn't he
hi daniel!,thats awsome!,hope your doin well,,,its my feet that bother me ,like walking on eggshells,or like my sock is crumpled..is that part of neuropathy?,,,,,,,,,,,you are an inspiration,to us all,,thanks,,,,,,
I love you big guy
That's awesome. Don't give up even if progress seems slow. I wish you success and God's blessings.
You will never know how much
You helped me . I have heart issues
And was just told I had fatty liver
I never knew my weight doubled
245. 5 ft but I am waiting to get stents
But all of a sudden my feet started
Itching and my leg broke out
And it itches I am also waiting
For a fusion in my back.
Had started keeping my first
Grandbaby but I started falling
But found out I had stenosis
In my back so now the first
Surgery they have grown back
The bone spurs so I do a fusion.
But I was getting depressed from
The weight gain I was petite
But I doubled my weight
I have avoided friends
And family my mom really
Upset with me its caused
Heartbreak cause I am trying
So hard but your text sounded
So good to me i really appreciate
You have given me hope.i am going to try.
Thank you for hope
So proud of your success
This stuff really is true. When I watched my first Dr. Berg video about sugar it was so eye-opening I lost 40lbs in a little more than a month and almost no effort; just stayed armed with knowledge. Love the videos; always informative and beyond useful
He has such a pleasant and kind sounding voice.
I don’t think my doctor even knows any of this stuff. If he does he’s never told me. I’ve improved my health more by myself using CZcams.
Doctors have to spend most of their time reading pharmaceutical literature to treat the symptoms rather then study the patient to treat the cause. Ethics are irrelevant you’re simply worth more sick and healthy food is too expensive.
Me too!
Your doctor knows that stuff and already used it to get a diagnosis when someone has specific complaints.

Highly unusual that someone is willing to help man kind. I’m so glad I found you. Ty God bless you.

Hail t Dr Berg yes he makes Sense😅❤
I lost 55 lbs since April 2020, reversed my type 2 diabetes, blood sugar from 8 down to 4.8, reverse my fatty liver condition to normal. My Dr. couldnt believed it, i went on Keto and OMAD, THX TO Dr. Berg and Dr. Jason Fung for saving my life.
I found out in sept 2020 i had diabetes. Had the goal to reverse it and was on the path too but the past 3 months or so i went back to bad habits and have the cracked heels again. Plan is to get back on track today. Nice to see a story where someone did what i had plan on doing. Nice motivation.
@@kingshanethe1st 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

My Uncle had all these symptoms as he was a patient of Liver Seurosis, he kept his disease as a secret and he passed away in 2016. Btw he was also a diabetic patient so initially we thought his illness is due to diabetes.
(Guys don't neglect your life)
I just got diagnosed with fatty liver disease. During the pandemic I was making a lot of breads (sourdough, pizzas, English muffins) and eating it all. Over the past year I’ve been constantly battling nail fungus, athletes foot (fungus) and cracked heals. Had no idea any of it was related. It’s all making sense now. Wow!
How did they detected the fatty liver? Is there a specific test?
@@chasingclouds7027 they detected it through an abdominal ultrasound.
So how did you treat or manage it, I just got lab result done indicating elevated liver enzymes
@@trader_shreelz7440
Probably the same way dr. Berg describes in the video
Dr. Berg’s videos sbout keto diet and intermittent fasting really improved my health: got rid of my arthritis and fatigue, reversed the cataracts that were starting to form in my eyes, improved my night vision, improved my mood and happiness level, reduced my stress.
Wow!
I have also noticed a change in my vision... from being color deficient in the red/orange/green ... to seeing colors more vibrantly than I ever remember... and night vision is very good... I am 60, and noticed this after taking the ALA (Lipoic Acid) and Benfotimine (B1) combo. I feel fantastic !!
😒 You got rid of arthritis?!
@@TheOopsEdaisy Yes, Dr. Berg is right. Keto and intermittent fasting get rid of conditions that you would never expect, like cataracts and arthritis. The reason is that sugar is very inflammatory. Arthritis is an inflammatory disease, and eyes are easily damaged by sugar. And I’m not even diabetic, but keto helped me. Sugar is caustic to the nerves and blood vessels too. Keto definitely gets rid of fatty liver. It’s interesting to read how the body heals itself during fasting.
Plz send me his keto ND intermitted fasting vidio link
Ha, just found out I was eating too much protein. How amazing to diagnose yourself in real time...looving Dr Berg
For at least 6 years, studying pre-med , paramedic, this it what I wanted to know! It didn't help that back in the 80's hi-tech didn't exist. I HAD to read books that were old.
great
SCOTT!
I have most of these symptoms. My general practitioner is useless. He knows nothing except what Big Pharma tells him to know.
bam! You sir, are correct. CZcams Rockefeller Medicine
Ya, like how many “sleep aids” do you think you need other than Ambien 🙈☠️☠️☠️
Ugh..Cindy...you feel my pain, first hand.....the old coot dr’s refuse to investigate new theories....yet the new crew doesn’t have enough experience with patients to have practical knowledge to pull from. And none of them want to get sued by actually directing folks in the right direction.
That's what has me so frustrated, too,. 😔
Actually it’s called too many patients rushed into the office and out the door. Not enough time for accurate patient care.
I was a hardcore drinker and the majority of those issues were happening to my feet. I also had other issues going on like fatigue and brain processing effects. Been sober for almost a year now and trying to repair all that damage. Everything seems to have cleared up but I'm still focused. Currently on a 48 hour fast ☺
Good for you. Keep it up!!
Drinking is overrated. Causes so many problems.
Thanks for your comment! Good for you and proud for ya!
@@island661 I agree…I did enjoy my wine or other drink. When I became a domestic violence responder my drinking is basically once/month now. I can only imagine how happy my liver is!
Congrats on your recovery…I’m sure it takes a lot of strength to fight that continuous demon, but following Dr Bergs plan will make you feel stronger, healthier, and successful.
Thanks to ypur videos, I have practically eliminated processed sugar from my diet and I'm living proof of the increased energy and better health. My eyesight has improved and I'm able to do my daily walk without getting fatigued. Thank you thank you thank you 😊

Great stuffs
I was really sick for about 2 years- pitting edema, critically anemic. My naturopathic doctor diagnosed me with a congested liver and leaky gut. I changed my diet and exercise routine, cut out sugar then started keto w/intermittent fasting and I’m now perfectly healthy and at my goal weight. Thank you Dr Berg!
That's fantastic
All illness stsrted w a ill guts.
Good job!!!
Had several naturopathic doctors diagnose leaky gut, but none of them even mentioned the liver. Was already doing keto, but started intermittent fasting and did several herbal liver cleanses. Just like you, I dropped to my goal weight and even less, and I feel so much better!!!

@@ashhy2576 there's not a specific diet that I follow, just listen to my body, and avoid all processed foods. Hope that helps!
I was diagnosed with nafld some months back. My liver enzymes were through the roof and was suspected of having the beginning stages of cirrhosis of the liver. I had posted a question asking about a diet for this issue. With in one day you had a new video posted in regard to this question. Due to your information i brought all of my blood work down to almost normal with in 3 weeks of my second blood test. My primary doc was floored. I also implemented coffee enemas and 72 hr fasting for its documented benefits to healing. Luckily my liver scan came clear of cirrhosis and or fibrosis. Thank you for the good work you do to better educate people on the true path to healing and health! The world would be an amazing place with more educated and caring people like yourself!

The intermittent fasting is helped me too. My mental state, physical energy, and overall feeling of well-being have improved, and I’ve lost excess weight that I needed to lose. When we are fasting, our body uses as fuel, any stray protein it can find: dead human cells, viral cells, weak and poorly-functioning cancer cells. That serves to detoxify and clean up the body and restore homeostasis.
I’ve been watching your channel for years! It has opened my eyes to how uninformed I was about nutrition and the body! Thank you so much!
Hello 👋🏻 Beautiful Lady 🌹,How are you and the weather condition like?
I have been in nursing for several years, noticed,a lot of nurses do there own research after seeing patients have chronic problems that pharmacy meds do not treat,likethe depleted nutrients the from long term use of modern medicine to fix a problem,caused another problem,, especially psychology meds,,,there is more to the mentally ill than the brain,the whole person comes with a body,
I say that to admire Dr Berg for talking about. The whole body,,gut, brain issue
Wow I’m glad I came here. You’re very knowledgeable but HELPFUL. Ik grateful

taylhardat,maria grats! High five!
How did you get so fat to start with?
three months ago... my husband, my son, both diabetics, and my self, decided to go your keto route to see if it would help... Well, my husband has lost nearly 26 pounds, my son lost 38 pounds, and I have lost 30 pounds... their diabetes readings has vastly improved,,, almost no insulin now, their a1c levels are normal now, so is their cholestral, their sugar levels are near normal, and their doctor was shocked... and took their tests and weighed them twice... this all happened Dr. Berg, because I found your videos. Now we do have a cookie or two once in awhile,, and we are not totally 100% keto... we do indulge once in awhile... but our results are amazing.. and we will continue... so for them, and myself, I say...… Thank You So Much.
This dude cured my diabetes in 2017 and the first half of 2018. I did an experiment for the last 6 months that ends tomorrow. Combining all the healthy stuff I like with candy and stuff every day. To me it just proves how well all this work. Keto is by far the best.
While on keto for the 1 1/2 years I lost 108 pounds, improved my eye sight, my skin, my ability to focus when critical thinking, and my athletic abilities. Didn't go to the gym at all... not even once. And worked out in my room for 30min once a week. I had a huge calorie day that was still keto but super high in protein on Tuesdays. Sunday was my only breakfast followed by a cookie.
The other 5 days were fully keto
So glad to hear! I'm sure your family has spent way more time in the doctors, labs and pharmacies than you cared for! How great to see the freedom you now have! Please be a living testimony to all those around you - and let the world know how much good health can be reclaimed thru diet.
God Bless you All ~
Congrats to you! You're definitely heading into the New Year right!
Congratulations to all!!!
Wow! Congratulations!!!
Thank you Dr Berg this is very helpful. Your videos are easy to put into practice if one is willing!
Brilliantly educational and so well presented.
Love every video and have shared them to my friends and family.
You get to the meat and bones of what is good and bad.
Thank you so much.
I've actually inspired my doctor to go on keto/IF, after losing 10cm around my waist following your awesome advice. I told her to watch your channel too. Thank you for all you teach us!

I stopped throwing my money and time at MD "doctors" . They should be called "SP's" Salespeople for Pharma. I fast once a year, exercise, eat mostly vegetables, with lean meats.

Once again ‘thank you’ Dr. Berg- you are really one of the best not only a doctor but a caring person. You always give us tips and knowledge with regards to our health. Thank you for caring ❤
Agree
For me I had crack feet because I used to walk barefoot, I wore open toed shoes and would get dirt on my feet. I don’t do that anymore so my feet are so much better now.
I'm down 101 lbs in 7 months on Keto, using none of the myriad of Keto products companies are pushing. Listen to this guy! Dr. Berg is a great source of info.
Yes, never put all your faith or trust in the medical industry. Learn natural remedies from our Chefs too !
Congratulations!🎊🍾

Great speed on your video. You kept it moving fast through the content. Excellent content, visuals, voice. Thank you very much
Having been diagnosed with HCC I can relate to this, I will follow you and your advice. Thank you for all the uploads
I've been down this road big time. Dad bod turned into old fat dad bod. I started to have liver, pre-diabetes, and other issues. When we got to the empty nest phase, my wife and I went on a Keto-type diet. She lost 50 lbs. I lost 70 lbs. I looked and felt 20 years younger. I kept the weight off for 4 years. Long story short, I had some difficult life issues that got me off my successful maintenance and back to my old ways. I put the weight back on so fast, it was unbelievable. I finally got to the point where I had to make a choice to cut the carbs and sugar or I was going to die - simple as that.
I have gone back to a low carb
o sugar way of life - I can't call it a diet. It's what I'll have to do the rest of my life to be around for my kids and Grandkids. I've lost 50 lbs so far. I need to go heavier on the fasting side to lose at least 20 more lbs. I just had labs done and everything is back to normal. Liver, diabetes, everything. This works - and for me, it's the only thing that works. It's not easy. But it's what you have to do to have a longer, healthier, and happier life. The pasta, bread, and sweets aren't worth dying for. Take care and good luck.

Cheers from Paris
Hi Doc! Just discovered your channel and I love it. Thank you for explaining things in an easy to understand way that most Dr's don't. Specialists seem really bad about this. I was diagnosed with PBC and I've had trouble finding a Dr who knows anything but basics about it and who can help me as far as diet ect. I've learned more from this liver video than from any Dr. I live in a rural area and my Primary Dr tries to send me to a good Specialist but some are flat out crazy. Lol Agsin, thanks! ❤ from Ks!
Dr Eric.... Your medical videos on various body related issues are perfectly explained easily understandable, and the solutions you provide are very easy to put into practice.. Awesome👍
This gentleman is one of the "good guys"! 👍
I wish more doctors took the time to explain this to their patients. So many medicated people suffering side effects of their medication and being given further over the counter treatments that do nothing. Thank you for sharing.
ya know MDs are paid by the pill. Most don’t know this your MD will deny this as it’s a well thought out shell game.
Most doctors are oblivious about nutrition!
Most do not know this because they don’t research,didn’t learn it much of it in school, or they just don’t care.
I feel like most doctors have good intentions but big pharma has bombarded us with so many ads of wonder/miracle pills. No wonder we have an opioid epidemic.
I am disgusted with pill peddling industry.
They a re called quacks and drug dealers simple
WOW! Dr. Eric Berg, I’m so happy for finding your CZcams channel. It’s amazing how you have almost 12 million subscribers and I’ve never heard of you until today. And judging from watching several videos and reading the comments you are a beloved person in this community, because you have helped so many people who are just like me. Now comes the hard part, doing what you say. The alcohol is a recent, but very big factor in my life and I have to stop. I’ve been just sliding down hill recently, but I have been blessed with finding your channel.! 🙏🏽 Dr. Berg
Hello, thanks for writing, and welcome to our community! There are many videos here that can be of assistance to you. Check out this one. Hope it helps! 👉 czcams.com/video/fbQ7jLhBkIQ/video.html
Dr. Berg is brilliant! I'm echoing hundreds of viewers sentiments, but I have to say thank you for all of your help. It truly has helped me and everyone I've shared these videos with. Follow him and watch and learn how to feel better with out feeling as if you can't do it. You can. Thanks Dr. Berg your wonderful and I appreciate you!
Since following Doctor Berg's tips on how to heal a fatty liver, I've lost 42 pounds of weight.
Now I can see my feet again!
Congrats
That's amazing!
Congratulations
Wow great!!!!!!!
Good for you friend! Congrats! You started Dr Berg’s Keto diet plan?
@@biscotti2k7 Thanks for your comment. This is an old comment of mine and my weight loss is now approaching 90 pounds.
Doing Keto for one month.. I’ve lost 20 pounds and I never feel hungry. Dr. Berg’s explanations are clear and accurate.
clearly looking great on it :-)
Good job sir!
Feeling so grateful for the knowledge you impart on us which is priceless ! May you stay Blessed !!
Amen
This is such a wonderful and educational video keep the great work up . All your videos are appreciated. Cannot thank you enough for caring and sharing . Live and blessings
Love and blessings
Thanks Dr. Berg! I'm a 50 something Male who's been doing Keto for 7 months now. I have
watched my body change for the better in many ways. My toe nails are growing out clear again after so many years of fungal discoloring. I've followed a lot of your advice right from the start. I feel like I've added extra years to my life. Thanks for all you do. I recommend your channel to all those who have asked me how I got myself healthy again.
Oh my.. you're the 2nd person here saying that Keto cured your toenail fungus. Thank you, I've never heard of any kind of lifestyle/diet changes that cure it. This is giving me hope. I have become comfortable with it (I've had it for 20 yrs, Im 32 yrs old..) as in I don't care what others think of it, but I do not like the idea of a fungus overgrowth in my body and would love to heal my body and my feet from it!!
Thanks again for your testimony, and if you recieve this, please let me know how its going since its been 6 months since your comment?
If I eat bread or sugar, my feet start to burn like there is no tomorrow. The single most uncomfortable feeling, and sitting with my feet in a bath of ice water. Once discovered keto and got of the carbs, the problem went away.
My WHOLE BODY would burn this way ... I blamed it on the muscle atrophy disease I have, called Kennedys Disease. But then realized I was just insulin resistant and pre diabetic at 60 yrs old ... Dr. Berg saved me from going off that cliff. Now just normal blood and lost that belly. 🤠
@@usmcmustang2972 Was there anything you did to relieve the burn while you waited for the diet to take effect? Thank you for any information you may be able to provide! :)
@@trishs2cats83 ... I started taking a daily regimen of Alpha Lupoic Acid and Benfotimine (B1) ... Order them from WalMart, delivered to your mail... VERY inexpensive with high benefit. Dr. Berg also has a few videos on this. As far as amount, I myself take 2 capsules of each one, on an empty stomach, in the morning and 2 of each in the afternoon...(They come in bottles of 60 or more, for reasonable price. Less than "Nervive" or some of the new marketed combinations) You will want to explore this basic regimen, before going into "mega doses", which will not hurt you. This combination helps refine the carbs your body does need, to help eliminate not having ANY carbs, which you do need to have some ... in my opinion... Good luck ... There IS a healthy balance. You just need to find it for yourself. Use restraint. 👍
@@usmcmustang2972 Thank you! Very kind of you to reply :) I'll research these. From what little I do know of them, they make sense to use for this very challenging symptom. Thank you again for the information.
Wow you too? I didn’t know why my feet were burning but lowering sugar recently seems to have helped. Which makes me think the symptom is rooted in pre-diabetes and the glucose being stored as fat or remaining in the bloodstream.
It’s like my body is running hot 🥵
I'd got some of these symptoms but when i started to follow Dr. Berg's videos they're almost gone. Thank you Dr Berg you're the best👍❤️
Glad I could be of assistance!
I use to eat Rolaids and Tums by the roll. I kept them in my pocket, in my truck, desk drawer.... literally everywhere, so I didn't get caught out there and get the acidic stomach burning my throat. Watching and learning from you ... I do not have those issues at all. Life is better.
I wished every med doctor would spread this knowledge to their patients! They sell pills instead. ☹️
Great work Dr Berg! You are our hero. 🤩
Glad you like the video. Thanks for watching!
I wonder how many doctors know this information.
Such professional personality ,the way you breakdown things I am very satisfied by ur videos
No they don't want to do that because if they do that they would be out of a job a lot of doctors want people to be sick and rely on them
@@bladerunner469 know this first and foremost they PRACTICE medicine on you, and you PAY for it. Let that sink in
Hi Dr Berg. Your advice has literally changed my life. On the cusp of accepting high blood pressure meds, cholesterol meds, and continuing depression meds.
I've been strict on myself and now practice keto bordering on carnivore and combine this with intermittent fasting.
Im 51 and can honestly say I cannot remember EVER feeling this good.
You're on my list of heros my dude.
Can you tell me what type of foods you eat ?
Dr Berg, love your content. Would you please share the blood work necessary for detecting issues with the liver? Thank you, Diana
Thank you Sir. Your videos and the information in them are in large part, responsible for the quality of life that I now live. Which is fantastic ❤️🙏☮️
I am a KETO Coach myself - in Denmark - and Dr. Berg has been such an inspiration - KETO is the optimal human diet 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
You look pretty 🤩 on your profile picture.
All I’ve eaten for the last 2 months is bacon.

Is Keto the same as intermitent diet?
Before starting Keto in Sept of 2018, my feet and ankles were HUGE with swelling and holding so much fluid my skin would just ache. So far down 100 lbs, got more to go. However, that fluid retention is out the window!
I’m so proud of you! That’s a lot to lose and hard work. I’m really happy you let the real you out.
thank you hearing u helps me
That is really nice to hear. I am athletic but i too have extremely water-swollen ankles after sitting all day. The place where the sock ends itches for one hour after i take them off
Started IF about 11 months ago, am 60, was obese but carried it well.. 280lbs.. am now 195lbs working to my goal of 180.. not just bout weight loss, feel amazing, swelling and joint pain gone, Acid Reflux completely gone, hip knee & ankle swelling and pain gone!.. feel better than I did in my 20s &30s..! IF saved my life literally!!. Thank you!
Of all the Keto information out there, it's hard to know which is accurate because clearly some people aren't doing the keto correctly! This is the MOST informative, educational information to understand how Keto works and how it affects your body. You go into great detail about explaining why about everything! This has been the easiest explanation and gives me hope to start! I finally understand how beneficial Keto and IF really is! I've watched Step 1, Step 2, Ketogenic Diet Plan for Beginners and Ketogenic Diet & Intermittent Fasting, and I just keep going to the next video. I'm very grateful for your information and knowledge to help so many! THANK YOU!
Agree
Wth....I've been to every doctor for EVERY ONE of these symptoms (took pictures of the so called lower leg rash) and no one could figure out what was happening. Look like it's cleanse/fast time, my word our healthcare system needs a complete and total overhaul. No one talks about this!!! 🤯
For one, doctors are not taught to cure people. They are taught to treat people with synthetic and harmful chemicals that trigger the body's natural response to problems in the body. They are taught that natural healing is not real and that pharmaceutical treatments are all that we have. The big picture is the money. Keeping people sick and covering symptoms for the problems so you will return puts billions if not trillions in their pockets.
He's amazing!
@Dan The Man So true!
Look into tamaribwd as well. Can use with the new diet.
I never caught on to a lot of the early signs and the symptoms of liver disease.
It was embarrassing since I was a bartender for 10+ years. I watched some people drink like pirates and some did have fun but played it smart with moderation.
I myself found my health was changing rather rapidly after a major life changing stressful event that lead to severe PTSD.
I couldn’t leave my house and started self medicating with alcohol to just hope I could pass out and get sleep and not have to relive the recurring nightmares and the reality of the situation.
So, I’m going right to it.
One day, I woke and went to the bathroom and did double takes...I was yellow!
I thought some changed my bulbs so I went to ask my helper and I could not walk straight and fuzzy stars were clouding my eyes.
I got to him and thought I asked if he changed the light bulbs but it didn’t come out like what I thought I was saying. I was saying random words and I was hasty then he just picked me up and threw me in the truck and sped off to the hospital.
Next thing was doctors telling me to sign and then there was nothing.
I woke 2 weeks later in ICU.
I tried to sign for the blood transfusions as I went organ failure and they lost me BUT got me back then it was sleep time.
I was almost 35 and liver failure got me.
3 months in the hospital at 75 pounds was not a good look.
Now it’s just trying to make sure I eat clean with lots of green and no sodium, stay hydrated and the oh so lovely lactulose and pee pills.
Cirrhosis and the unforgiving Hepatic Encephalopathy....that’s the daily worry, you just don’t know what’s going to trigger a HE episode.
I know I didn’t list my symptoms that I wasn’t aware of before I almost was not anymore.
But, I will come back and give a quick lowdown.
I’m just running late like almost always...a big HE trait.
✨
Play it safe out there everyone and don’t ignore the little things that pop up that make you question.
💫
My Dad died of liver cirrhosis ..well...thats what they assumed...he hardly had alcohol..but he was on heavy medication n didnt exactly eat healthy and sweet tooth too.. after his heart surgery...he had non-of these symptoms.
All I know
I miss my Dad so sooo much 💔
💗

F
I miss my dad too! He died at the age of 62 due to cancer of the liver. He had no vices so we assumed it was his exposure to radiation when he worked as a radiologist in the 1950's and he died in 1987 :(

I'm on keto diet for almost 4 months now, I am a type 1 diabetic since 2010, I managed to lower my insulin intake with Keto diet by more than 60%, I eliminated the fast blood glucose spikes, my blood sugar control is just so great and so easier to control, and I've never felt physically or mentally better. Thank you for those videos!
good job!
Congratulations 🎉!
I am myself a « new diabetic » and I try to clear it with a better diet bc all the doctors I’ve seen they never talk , prevent or ask me about it …
Which i think it’s insane because the whole thing is about sugar and how we eat right ??
Are you still taking insulin?
Thank you 😊💪🏽 your message means a lot
@@inesabae6425 I'm still taking insulin, yes, but way less than I used to, going on Keto or low-carb diet will certainly help you control your blood sugar, it will be very stable with no fast spikes as I used to have before. you will have to control how much insulin you take based on the sugar or the carb you eat. the more sugar and carbs, the more insulin. P.S You will need to lower the insulin intake if you go on keto, it would take a couple of days until you reach the right dose.
I recommend finding a doctor or some specialist who can teach you how to calculate carb and sugar intake and convert them to insulin units, I can't tell you mine because everybody is different and have different sensitivity to insulin. and again I'm sorry that you got diabetes, it's spreading widely nowadays. Take care and best wishes!
@@hanialadham4336 hey thanks for reply :) ! This is kind !
Great okay , last question : do you still have hypoglycemia or is this done ? Or at least more rare ?
Thanks 🙏🏼
@@inesabae6425 Before I used to have hypoglycemia almost every day, having to drink juices and recover from it wasn't very pleasant. but not anymore (or it's very rare and not as extreme), since fats take more time to digest and provide stable energy to your body, you won't be having fast spikes like when consuming carbs and sugar (no more hypo or hyperglycemia), and you will see an almost stable curve in your blood sugar, which makes controlling it much better and safer. for example, I put certain insulin units for breakfast and it will stay stable with no highs or lows. you will have to figure out the right amount for yourself, and I'd suggest being cautious about it since you will be much more sensitive to insulin, and keep juices or sweets around in case it goes low while experimenting.
You are fantastic, you help and give knowledge. Thank you so much, please continue doing what you are doing, way to go
I’m so thankful for you. I’m gradually learning about how my body works at the age of 61.
That is exactly how I feel and we are the same age. Watching his videos is changing my life in a positive and healthy way. I have gone to doctors for many poor health symptoms that lead to getting no answers, but it’s amazing how I’m finding the answers and solutions in his videos and have started making changes and seeing/feeling results. It’s only been one month but by summer the changes should be major.
I started keto a month ago, and my feet problems are getting better, also, I stopped waking up with a sore back. I love the weight loss, I have more energy, and clarity of mind.
Thanks Doctor for your awesome and informative lecture. It's really beneficial.
I would want you to be keeping me updated.
love your message, was a bit concerned when I first watched a few years back thinking I needed the advice of a MD. I now know that you have studied much more extensively than my family doctor who just wanted to prescribe more and more prescriptions ( at one time a total of FIVE!!) Been diabetic 23 years, now only occasionally take a glipizide if my fasting number is slightly high. Eating properly with regular exercise has made all the difference in the world. Also had the "white" toenails described in this video and that rectified itself. I was totally mystified where that came from! Thanks for all your informative messages!
I spent my life doing everything wrong and my health was really starting to show for it. I started watching Dr. burg and following his ways for almost a year now and I feel so much better!
Over 60, female, diagnosed Type 2 - My personal doctor wanted to put me on meds for diabetes, high blood pressure, and cholesterol. I would have none of it. I've been following Dr Berg for several years now. Lost 40 pounds, normal blood pressure, normal cholesterol and although I still experience high morning blood sugar my doctor told me "congratulations you beat diabetes." Doctor Berg is awesome. I recommend him to all my friends.
Great story!
I plateaued on keto after great results for first 6 months. Got more strict cut more carbs did all manner of fasting etc etc...no bueno.
Figured out my cortisol was too high. Adding fruit back in and cutting down on fats fixed that after a few months. A1C actually went down a bit, was already ok. Overall blood sugars improved...but still not 100%. Too much keto can lower thyroid function--see Ray Peat's blog to learn more.
But its not the whole picture because SOME people can drop hundreds on lazy keto and never plateau etc... I even tried carnivore, and gained weight.
I think now thay the key to who succeeds and who does not with keto has to do with parasites! Not intestinal although those ard bad--internal, in organs like liver and pancreas. Flukes in particulat as they can hide from immune system, they host viruses so its nasty for you when they die because now poof you have to fight a ton of viruses too, (cfs anyone??), AND they coopt hormonal signalling including insulin--they want your blood sugars sky high because that is their food supply.
I have concluded it is impossible to achieve perfect health unless first one systematically annihilates every single species of parasite...plus their eggs or cysts (this can take months and repeated dosings of meds/herbs--I like vet meds for dogs or horses as good luck getting any help with this from ignoramus mainstream docs). Midway in this process now and starting to see major shifts in energy...
@@keralee Hi, I dose my 2 dogs and 2 cats 1x month.
Their 'med' covers all sorts of parasites but all I can find for me only covers 1 type of common parasite that humans get. Whats up there?
I agree with your conclusion.
@@keralee may I know what vet meds are you drinking for animals? I want to kill these parasites too :((

.and I think you may have answered my problem... good doctor
I gotta say that Dr Berg is honestly a genius. If big pharma and medicine was ran by Dr Berg I honestly believe that it would be rare to see anyone ever getting sick.
You don’t need to be a genius to run big pharma, you need to be corrupt. Dr berg is not the guy for it.
I don’t take medical advice from followers of L. Ron Hubbard
Whos that? And who follows him?
Amyways, keto kinda screwed me up Im not gonna lie. I got insomnia from it and started peeing literally 10 times a night. Ended up becoming so sleep deprived I was beginning to go crazy and I left my engagement because I couldnt figure out what was wrong with me. Turns out it was this stupid diet. I went back to eating my normal mediterranean foods and never felt better. I should have never listened to dr berg lol... Im now depressed and left the best woman of my life. Kinda wish Id just get ran over by a train and disappear. I feel so stupid. Keto should come with a huge warning sign explaining what the side effects are. They make it out to be some kind of miracle but thats so far from the truth. It may be good for some people but humans are diverse beings that come from different parts all around the world with different foods everywhere. I hate keto... ughh
