Funny thing is, folks have been eating bread, sugar, pies, cakes, etc from the beginning! No issues! It's when they started processing the flours, sugars in a non natural form is what's happened! I'm 56, I have zero health issues and on zero meds! I consume little sugar but I use unprocessed sugar and honey. I grind my own grains for bread! I avoid these nasty oils! Butter, tallow and rarely lard but it's all I use.
I'm 55 and grew up on a farm where we made everything from scratch and also didn't eat sweets except for very rare occasions. Like you, I have zero health issues and there is nothing but a little cortisone cream in my medicine cabinet for bug bites. What amazes me is that the 30-year olds I work with are all complaining of aches when getting out of bed and are constantly coming down with colds, etc. So sad to think how bad their health will be when they get to be my age!
@loveschicken. What kind of flour do you use to make your bread and where do you purchase it? What type of oil do you use in your bread? You don't use olive oil, why not
I’m 64; on no meds. Healthy. I don’t take over counter meds, don’t eat meat, and not much bread. Never had any vaccines for flu etc and don’t plan to. Keep it simple is the secret.
@almaburns6562 I buy wheat berries and other whole grains from local farmers or sometimes online. Research the source of the grains for use of pesticides and such. Buy a hand grinder. It's easier than you think to do it. 😊
My auntie used to bake her bread in a wood oven. It lasted for up to 2-3 weeks when kept in a bread box wrapped in a cotton tea towel. I can still remember the yeasty aroma wafting out of that wood fired oven. She's been gone for 20 years but her kitchen has retained that yeasty aroma because she cooked, baked, made pasta & sauces, in it for the best part of 50 years! Her children haven't updated at all as a monument to her. The squeeky screen door & wooden floor boards are a comfort to their hearts. Thank God for all mother's loving care 🙏💜
actually i prefer someone who hasn't had that medical training as it is locked in from what they nave been taught in medical school and not preventative or there is a lot they don't know.
@@wildcharm911 Chiropractors are doctors. MDs are doctors. Osteopaths are doctors. Naturopaths are doctors. Podiatrists are doctors. Dentists are doctors. Veterinarians are doctors. It’s a matter of discernment and particular need the prospective patient has to determine WHICH approach to dealing with health one prefers that is important. There is no need to denigrate any one type of doctor over another. They all have the same basic body of knowledge-with variations relative to philosophy. They ALL work for SOME of the people ( or animals) SOME of the time. 🙏🏾❤️😇
Eat healthy, exercise, take baby aspirin as well as vitamin tabs, eat fermented cabbage such as Sauerkraut & kimchi, take one spoon of extra virgin olive oil and apple cider vinegar, drink matcha green tea and sleep well ... That's what I've done and just celebrated my 90th birthday lately. 😊
In case people go out searching for a great sourdough bread, make sure that it has actually been fermented by the sourdough, not by industrial yeast. That means it should have sourdough as an ingreadient, but not yeast at all. Otherwise, it means the producer just went for a kind of trendy sourdough flavor, but it did not really go through the whole sourdough fermentation.
Unfortunately as a sugar addict I switched to carnivore and 0 sugar. WOW! All my ailments and diseases are gone my weight dropped from 156 to 129 pounds and I feel better than ever.😊
My doctor told me that I had a fatty liver but didn't know what had caused it. She accused me of drinking too much alcohol. I learned from this channel, how to cure my fatty liver by cutting out bread, pasta, rice, potatoes and noodles, plus I followed a Ketogenic lifestyle, incorporated with 18:6 intermittent fasting and in the first 10 months, I lost 103 pounds, reversed prediabetes and got rid of ALL of my joint inflammation. It's not a fad diet folks, it's a re-education and a proper human way of eating.
It blows my mind how many people use gluten and refuse to understand how unhealthy it is. I am 40 and back when I was 16 I use to say to a friend stop eating gluten. He was saying I am a machine and can eat anything. Now after so many years, he was told by the doctor to NOT eat gluten because he is having problems with his intestine. It's like people have to feel the pain in order to understand how bad it is. Dr Berg, you are a hero for me. I have learned so much from you.
Its also addiction, I know its bad for me but in my county choices are so poor to swap it out and especially for breakfast its non existing. Einkorn isnt always available, spelt slightly easier. I buy organic localy grown barley and rye but its different. So I do go for the 'better' bad options sometimes, make sourdough bread myself (but as beginner it often fails or starter dies). I also get sick if I eat complete grainfree so I need to consume it now and then because some products I eat because it takes away this horrible feelings I sometimes go through (and its not mental). I think it applies also a lot more to US than to Europe, our bread is still not the best but compared to American bread less chemical. If I go to US again maybe next year, I do my research before hand of what and where to eat because I do not trust it.
Dr berg if he is even a doctor has pickled my little bwain, how is anyone without a PhD spossed to take all this in and follow and this is just one vid, Im still clueless
@@BarnyRuble. He is a chiropractor and he studies a lot and he does a lot of research before he recommends anything to anybody. And he is very intelligent and he cares about people and he really wants to heal people
I made the mistake of giving into carb cravings, I asked my bf to get it for me in the morning (Pizza and a jam donut) after religiously doing low carb the past two weeks. And guess what? I woke up in severe pains and aches, stiffness, inflammation. I literally want to cry, Dr Berg was right and is telling the truth guys!!! I’m going to get back on track and start my day with a chicken salad!😭 Thank for this reminder!!! I needed it!
I too bought a loaf after my friend tempted me with sandwiches. Next thing you know I let rip Bread led to Ice cream and apple pie. I feel like someone has poured acid in all my joints and I have loose stools. I just cant seem to get away from bread pushers.
Fresh grind flour and make your own homemade pizza with homemade sauce, cheaper, so so much better tasting, and no issues with it either. Also the amount of seed oils in a bought donut..... If you want a donut make your own and fry it in some lard or tallow.
Processed foods are bad. PERIOD. I eat whole foods. I cook from scratch. I mill organic wheat berries. Make sourdough, kefir, and yogurt. Have a vegetable garden and chickens. 61 and no meds. I also pray, thanking God and asking Him to bless my food.
True. However, these are no longer called boulangeries, but dépôts de pain. But there are still a lot of true boulangeries, especially in smaller towns.
Ah the corporations finally are working their way into Europe with their cheaper product that undercuts the small mom and pop business. I really can't stand the younger generation.
I was sick for months, did blood tests everything keeps on getting okay when I visit my GP, but within me I wasnt feeling better. After having an encounter, I stopped bread and other pasta since then, I got my healing. Thank you so much. From Nigeria.
I live in Indonesia 🇮🇩 , so we don't eat bread. We are eat rice, vegetables, eggs, meat, chicken, fish,. By health way cooking. Thank you doctor Eric with your wide knowledge explanation.
Pretty much all these "You'll never eat this again.." videos can be summed up by stating "If it comes in a bag, box or bottle..or more than 2 ingredients..don't ingest it".
Exactly you've probably read Paul Braggs the miracle of Fasting in which he says the same thing. He's the reason Jack Lallane became the person who he was. I followed his detox diet and it worked 100 percent many years ago.
I eat very little Bread, usually get one Sourdough loaf a month from a local organic vegan bakery. For many years I made my own Sourdough starter and made some breads or pancakes with it. Never ho near Supermarket 'Bread' though we ate it as children. I'm 77 now and just don't eat much bread - mostly meat/fish/eggs and veggies/fruits. No Inflammation, no Candida etc.
If you’re 77 that means when you were a kid it was way back then. That means the bread your parents bought at the store was a lot more healthy back then than the garbage from nowadays.
@@BigMike-Soetoro I’m 70 and the number one seller on the nread shelf was Wonder Bread. Trust me, the assumption you made that food was purer then is not correct. By the 1940’s because of the need to have foods that wouldn’t spoil for the military in WWII, all kinds of chemicals started being added to food. Many are not allowed any more but unfortunately many are still being added to our food. I don’t think we will ever get to a point where we don’t have to read labels.
@@BigMike-Soetoro Mate, unfortunately we all eat garbage. The wheat what our grandparents used to eat has gone in 70ties. It was genetically modified so the grain which is used in the past is completely different than the one we use today. Not to mention the grain from Mesopotamia or from Egypt..it is completely different plant.
I am mostly a Ketovore but I have started buying organic forms of grains, milling them and making my own bread. Not only is the taste totally different but it is more filling and I only eat 1 slice per day. It is full of nutrients and it does depend upon which ingredients you use as to the quality and health benefits. I can't believe I was raised on junky store bought bread but even an old dog can learn new ways. I am 70 years-old and started changing things shortly after the pandemic began and I eat a totally different way.
My daughter has friends who when they go back to visit Russia, or go to Europe, they can eat all the bread, pasta, etc. and not gain weight. Here in the States they eat the same and gain weight. Another reason for the obesity levels here. One of my favorite alternatives is Ethiopian Teff Injera flatbread. I add Teff flour to Einkorn when baking, along with wild harvested local Dock, and California Buckwheat seeds, and Nettle seeds, depending on what I’m making. But I love to experiment and make what I call rustic baked items.
Show me soft healthy bread in states. I can't find. I have an older bread machine in the 90s. You buy a box and it's all there and machine does the rest. Is this healthy???
I don't eat bread like I used to. But I still do and shouldn't.. I used to be prediabetic and I have lymphedema an incurable disease. And now I haven't checked my suger since 2020. I need to buy a blood glucose machine. What do you recommend I do
@@Bama_J Not a big bread eater but consume about 1-3 loaves of sprouted Ezekiel bread each year. I love a nice Irish buttered grilled cheese sandwich with aged Muenster or Gouda and a pot of hot organic green tea or coffee during cold winter months.
Just from cooking from scratch to me I don't have to worry about hidden ingredients in my meal, keto sweets . Please keep away from fructose, msg, maltodextrin , more Always read the ingredients. Even on your mayo, ketchup, mustard, salad dressing and more.
Yeah id say stick to fructose only if its already in the food like you are eating an apple for example, cause then it has fibers vitamins etc and the fructose is balanced but dont use it as a sweetener on its own... And omg maltodextrineeee I hate them they are in basically all diabetic "sugar free" foods and even more and they make my gut feel so bad nowadays they put it basically in everything like omg even straight sugar is better just to make u understand how bad they are. Also margarine they put it in many vegan things i saw and idk whyy just stick to extra vergin olive oil etc
Just make your own mayo it's literally like 5 ingredients and takes less than 5 minutes to make! People don't understand the low quality of eggs used in store brand mayo not to mention unless it says otherwise it's made with vegetable oil which is the worst oil possible!
@@Strive4GreatnessPOP true but at home you dont have the certainty that the eggs you buy are disease free and you dont cook it for mayo and secondly fresh mayo doesnt last as long so you have to keep remaking it. I think the oils and extras in mayo are the badguys mostly but I find a good brand here in italy with the few ingredients and extravirgin olive oil thats good
I bloat SO badly when I eat bread! Even just one piece. I'm definitely addicted to those reasons you stated... I know it's not good for my body, but I "love" it. This video is definitely a huge help. I told my husband this is the video I needed to get me to stop eating it! Especially after the part you shared about heating/toasting it. I'm a recent cancer survivor and never want to go through that again! I did notice, though, that when I eat other grains/oats, I still bloat. So I don't know if I just have an overall sensitivity to those things or what the issue is... As always, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you Dr. Berg. After suffering stomach issues I asked my Dr. for an allergy test, went for bloodwork, had to go a 2nd time as I had to ask specifically to be tested for gluten. Found out that I have a gluten allergy, I’ve stopped eating it and feel much better. In Paris back in June I indulged with a couple of croissants from a fresh bakery and I was fine. On the Delta flight home I thought maybe I can have a piece of bread and be ok - I was keeled over in pain for several hours, thankfully was in a lie-flat seat. No-one in my family has these gluten issues, I’m the only one that moved to the US. Being a gluten free vegetarian who fasts makes going out to restaurants these days very challenging! I’ve been advising all my friends to get tested. My Dr. said that if I had kept eating gluten that it would eventually turn into celiac disease.
I guessed they missed where he said the chemicals in American bread are NOT found in European bread. Just gotta love the Karen’s that don’t look before they leap lool.
Sourdough is a common migraine trigger for those who have migraine disease. I used to joke that I got migraines just from looking at a loaf of sourdough bread!
I started buying wheat berries, milling them myself to make whole wheat flour and making my own bread. It made a huge difference! The bread I make only contains fresh milled flour, olive oil, yeast, water, honey, salt and an egg. I know everything that is in my bread and it is all natural. Like Dr. Berg said, the problem with store breads is they contain too much gluten. Gluten isn't so much of a problem when it's left at the levels that are naturally in wheat to begin with but when you add more gluten, you overload your system. My wife is gluten sensitive, and she can eat my bread with no issues. The other thing is the fiber that is in bread is stripped out. The germ and endosperm are sifted out, and you're mostly left with the starchy white flour. The sifted parts are sold as cattle feed. We need those sifted parts to provide our system with the balanced fiber needed to eat wheat. This is why so many people have issues eating bread in America.
@@missamerica2478 One thing I learned about cooking is that recipes are just guidelines, and you can't follow them exactly the way they are written. When I started cooking bread, this was definitely the case! From what I've experienced with fresh milled whole wheat bread, is that a lot of times I have to add all my ingredients to a bowl, except the yeast and 1 1/2 cups of flour. I give the wet ingredients a quick mix and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. This allows the flour to absorb more of the water. This helps tremendously to keep moisture in the bread. Some other thing I've noted is many times I use a bit more olive oil than what is called for. Again this for more moisture/oiliness in the bread. I also allow more time for the bread to rise after adding the yeast. I cook my bread to 185 degrees. If the bread gets any hotter than this it starts to overcook. As far as storage, I don't keep bread in the refrigerator. It will dry it out with the quickness! I keep my bread in a plastic bag and then in a bread box that sits on the counter at room temp. My bread will usually stay good for about 5 days, but it never lasts that long with my girls eating it all the time. 🙂
@@Theebarb I get mine on Amazon from Great River Organic Milling. I usually buy soft white and hard red and blend them for my bread. A 25 pound bag of each had lasted me 9 months.
I really don't eat bread at all anymore I stopped eating bread last year in 2022, & I really feel a whole lot better, my body & stomach feel whole lot better without it. I only eat much healthier foods like my veggies & fruits, some chicken & fish, plus cheese, like string cheese❤😊🥰. I love it. Plus I cut out all fast foods, also all the chips I cut out. I feel a whole lot better & good. Everyones bodies, & stomachs are different. It's always really good to fully listen to your whole body of it's telling you. I listened to my body.
Thankfully I've hated my bread my whole life so that wasn't one I had to worry about. The only thing I miss sometimes is cornbread which is horrible for me if made with corn from the U.S.
I just left a comment about Dr Paul Bragg and then read your post. I read his book on the miracle of Fasting in 1989 and followed everything he said and it worked and was rejuvenated and that glow of life your skin radiates after all the toxins and poisons are flushed from your system is like a rebirth. I did the test he prescribed just before the end of the fast and kept a urine sample in a glass jar with a very tight lid and stored in an unlit area for a few weeks. When I brought it out it was as he described it would be and more and he said do not open the lid its one thing to see what death and humanities ills look like but its even worse to know what they smell like. Black coagulate globs and hideous shapes of diseases trapped in a glass jar. It's a must read and cure most diseases and depression.
Thanks Dr Berg I always learn from you And help who I can from what I'm taught. I started out 8 years ago weighing 767 pounds watching you I'm down to 380 My goal 250 at 6,5" Thanks for my life back Sir!
@@vibekes2416 it is gluten, however it's an ancient grain that hasn't been genetically modified, it's incredibly healthy however if you are celiac I wouldn't eat it. If you can try and find a video of Barbara O'Neill talking about it I'd check it out
Right on Dr Berg......been making bread and Einkorn bread for years now.....people do not understand or "believe" that the standard flour in the US is 1/3 "Something Else" !!
Sorry, Doc. There's nothing left to eat if I quit eating all you say I should avoid. I've made big changes and am doing well enough. I'm not giving up everything!
I eat keto during the week but relax a bit at the weekend. We're both 68, on no meds and are fitter than a lot of people half our age. There are 2 extremes, puritanical and indulgent. Everything, well not everything, in moderation.
At 71 I've been on the carnivore diet for 3 months and lost 20 pounds and my belly is much smaller. I missed a snack with my coffee so I had aussie bites for a couple days in the morning and my belly extended out 3 inches right away.
@@Celeste.Cooper I think I got allergic to carbs in some way, I got allergic to beer over 40 year of a couple at night, my bladder would hurt, feel like i had a bladder infection. So I went pure carnivore, hope to get to 180 after being more than 220 for years.

Ezekiel bread(sprouted grain bread) has a glycemic index of 35, whereas regular white bread has a glycemic index of 72-80 or even higher! Because Ezekiel bread is shipped and kept frozen it tends to be dryer and certainly more expensive but worth the price if you’re diabetic or have any insulin resistance. 😊.
Thank you Dr. Berg? I've been on keto for 27 months and have lost 30 pounds! I added a WASA Swedish crispbread to my diet. It's the only bread you can buy in Sweden. They don't sell American soft breads. I plan to try Dr. Berg's Einkorn bread recipe
All very well in these hard times to eat healthier but groceries are expensive… usually the healthier ones are way more expensive. But I get your point.
Found your channel two days ago as I’ve been suffering from issues due to bad gut health. This is the type of content we should be taught. And more doctors need to practice nutrition rather than pills
I'm healing my extreme severe eczema on my palms and bottoms of my feet (Dyshidrotic Eczema) through changing what I eat. I reference your videos a lot for my research. Six months in and I'm about 90% healed so far. Incredible what God-given whole foods can do for a body. One of my followers just told me about Einkorn flour last week and I ordered it. Looking forward to trying it out because bread is the only things I miss.
i just started your D3 and K2 vitamins this morning thank you Dr Berg for your help im praying this is what i needed all along with my health issues praying on a miracle : )
People should start eating something better other than bread in the morning, bread is not essential in the human diet, I for one eat eggs and avocado as a breakfast
@@iamieeesha9619 I prefer avocados or citric fruits such as strawberries in moderate quantities, modern bananas are way too big and packed with sugar and will make you hungry fast again
@@iamieeesha9619bananas are good for you, but eating 2 is a lot of natural sugar and carbohydrates. Carbs turn to sugar in the body, so better to consume in moderation.

Very, very sad thing to see. Have a wonderful day, y'all! 🙂
I've been on a journey to find cleaner items to eat, this actually goes beyond organic. I had no idea how "dirty" some organic brands are compared to others. Thank you though for talking about gluten and fermented/sprouted bread. I'll definitely take a look for these organic versions.
I'm 42. when I was a kid, American store bought, breads would start to get moldy after about a week if not used up. Milk would start to curdle if opened & not used up within about the same. Not anymore. I found a partial bag of unused hamburger buns at the back of my mom's cuboard that had no mold & was purchased more than 4 MONTHS ago. I haven't had a container of pasteurized milk go sour in the past 10 yrs. What are they doing to our food to make them super resistant to perishing?? It's gotten to the point I'm afraid to consume or let my family consume almost anything I can pick up from a regional grocery store chain. I never bring my kids grocery shopping bc I have to say no to almost anything they ask for. It's scary.
I had a milk that went real gross fast. But bread no Ezekiel bread is meant to keep in freezer till you are ready to eat it. Hence goes bad fast otherwise
I found that to be the case too. Left my loaf of Ezekiel bread on the counter for a few days. Went to make toast and there was a bunch of mold on several slices.☹️ Now I keep it refrigerated or frozen. Makes me think it's pretty healthy.
Many gluten sensitivities and other problems would disappear if chemicals in the food system which were damaging to gut lining integrity were banned (like glyphosate).
The earliest bread our European ancestors ate was acorn bread. Made with 100% white oak acorns from the early Neolithic period - while Stonehenge was being built.
@@elizabethmelvin6276 The original people there tinkered with agriculture for 5k years before building phase one. Yes grain was wealth for them but not as much as livestock. I think barley was one of the major crops before wheat or rye.
Gluten in bread is the only protein humans can’t digest. Gluten side effects include gut inflammation and health conditions like celiac disease Einkorn is an ancient grain that has not been altered in a long time. Einkorn bread doesn’t have quite the same texture or mouthfeel as bread that's high in gluten, but it's close, and very few people have gut reactions to it. Modern grains are very high in phytic acid-a compound that binds with minerals such as zinc, iron, magnesium, manganese, calcium, and copper. Phytic acid is not absorbed in the small intestine, so you won’t be able to absorb the minerals it binds with. Some cultures that consume high amounts of bread have zinc and iron deficiencies because of the phytic acid. In the U.S., bread sometimes contains BVO or potassium bromate, ingredients banned in Europe. Wheat in the U.S. is often dried out with glyphosate, the chemical found in Roundup. Toasting bread creates acrylamide, which may lead to cancer. Try this healthy Keto-Friendly Einkorn Bread recipe! Ingredients •1/2 cup Einkorn flour •1 cup almond flour •1/4 cup coconut flour •1/4 cup ground flaxseed •2 teaspoons baking powder •1/2 teaspoon salt •1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum •1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk •4 large eggs •1/4 cup melted butter •1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar •1 teaspoon stevia or erythritol (optional, for a sweeter taste) •1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional, for a more savory flavor) Instructions 1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease or line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment. 2. Combine dry ingredients (Einkorn, almond, and coconut flours, flaxseed, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum). Mix until thoroughly combined. 3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients (eggs, melted butter, almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and sweetener). Ensure the wet ingredients are well blended. 4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until the mixture forms a thick batter. Be careful not to overmix. 5. Fold in optional ingredients such as shredded cheese, herbs, or spices. 6. Transfer batter to loaf pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula to ensure the mixture is evenly distributed. 7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil. 8. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. 9. Once the bread has cooled, slice it with a sharp bread knife. Serve it plain, toasted, or with your favorite keto-friendly toppings like avocado, butter, or cheese. Thank you Dr Berg! 😺👍

My D2 blood sugar was going up & up for 2 months, because of 3 weeks of flu, followed by an injury, which has resulted in hardly any exercise. It was 7-8+ every morning , with medication. 3 days ago I came off bread, and my blood sugar dropped 3 points overnight, and is maintaining at a healthy 5-6. Bread is definitely the hardest addiction to overcome. This time is the final time!
I started eliminating lunch from my day (I work construction building houses) as it was the main meal I’d be consuming breads/grains. I feel so much better, way more energy. I drink electrolytes and perhaps have some fruit or protein. The worst part is the looks from coworkers as they sit down for their giant sandwiches and burgers
Great video. I removed all bread from my eating habits except for pumpernickel bread. I eat pumpernickel bread because I read that it can actually help with digestion, and contains heart healthy fats. 🌿
My daughter was having stomach issues, for months. We were worried because we didn't know what it was. She even had to drop out of school because lost too many classes. Finally, we found out she is allergic to GLUTTEN! Now she is eating gluten-free and feels awesome again.
Great video, one other thing about all bread is that the crust is made of glycated proteins. This can increase it's inflammatory impact on the body and negatively affects blood sugar. Remember HbA1C is a glycated protein which measures the inflammatory impact of excess sugar in the blood.
Organic oatmeal is gluten free. Eat it! It's the very best and takes the toxins from your body and flushes them out. It also lowers sugar. Lowers cholesterol, improves brain power and greatly uses your chances of colorectal cancer because of the high fiber content.

She's been gone for 20 years but her kitchen has retained that yeasty aroma because she cooked, baked, made pasta & sauces, in it for the best part of 50 years! Her children haven't updated at all as a monument to her. The squeeky screen door & wooden floor boards are a comfort to their hearts.
Thank God for all mother's loving care 🙏💜

I live in the US. Once I removed bread from our diet our inflammation reduced drastically. It’s a shame what they do to us here.
American bread is insanely sweet to a European

Its not a shame!! Its actually criminal what they're doing. It makes a "mockery" of the FDA and the "supposed" health system!!
So what do you eat instead of bread?
Is brown wholemeal bread healthy?
Eat healthy, exercise, take baby aspirin as well as vitamin tabs, eat fermented cabbage such as Sauerkraut & kimchi, take one spoon of extra virgin olive oil and apple cider vinegar, drink matcha green tea and sleep well ... That's what I've done and just celebrated my 90th birthday lately. 😊

In case people go out searching for a great sourdough bread, make sure that it has actually been fermented by the sourdough, not by industrial yeast. That means it should have sourdough as an ingreadient, but not yeast at all. Otherwise, it means the producer just went for a kind of trendy sourdough flavor, but it did not really go through the whole sourdough fermentation.
Great tip- TY!
Thank you for this. I’m just going to check the ingredients on my whole meal sourdough now
Thank you…I didn’t think about that 😊

My doctor told me that I had a fatty liver but didn't know what had caused it. She accused me of drinking too much alcohol. I learned from this channel, how to cure my fatty liver by cutting out bread, pasta, rice, potatoes and noodles, plus I followed a Ketogenic lifestyle, incorporated with 18:6 intermittent fasting and in the first 10 months, I lost 103 pounds, reversed prediabetes and got rid of ALL of my joint inflammation.

It blows my mind how many people use gluten and refuse to understand how unhealthy it is. I am 40 and back when I was 16 I use to say to a friend stop eating gluten. He was saying I am a machine and can eat anything. Now after so many years, he was told by the doctor to NOT eat gluten because he is having problems with his intestine. It's like people have to feel the pain in order to understand how bad it is. Dr Berg, you are a hero for me. I have learned so much from you.
Its also addiction, I know its bad for me but in my county choices are so poor to swap it out and especially for breakfast its non existing. Einkorn isnt always available, spelt slightly easier. I buy organic localy grown barley and rye but its different. So I do go for the 'better' bad options sometimes, make sourdough bread myself (but as beginner it often fails or starter dies). I also get sick if I eat complete grainfree so I need to consume it now and then because some products I eat because it takes away this horrible feelings I sometimes go through (and its not mental). I think it applies also a lot more to US than to Europe, our bread is still not the best but compared to American bread less chemical. If I go to US again maybe next year, I do my research before hand of what and where to eat because I do not trust it.

I made the mistake of giving into carb cravings, I asked my bf to get it for me in the morning (Pizza and a jam donut) after religiously doing low carb the past two weeks. And guess what? I woke up in severe pains and aches, stiffness, inflammation. I literally want to cry, Dr Berg was right and is telling the truth guys!!!

You and I share the same fav 3 digit number.

Bread led to Ice cream and apple pie.
I feel like someone has poured acid in all my joints and I have loose stools.
I just cant seem to get away from bread pushers.
Eat fat in the morning, like eggs, and if you eat enough meat you can just cut the salad :D
Carbs are a macronutrient, you need it. Just eat complex carbs instead of simple carbs.
Fresh grind flour and make your own homemade pizza with homemade sauce, cheaper, so so much better tasting, and no issues with it either.
Also the amount of seed oils in a bought donut..... If you want a donut make your own and fry it in some lard or tallow.

PAY ATTENTION In France and Quebec (Canada) many bakers no longer make their bread. It arrives frozen and manufactured by industrial companies.
True. However, these are no longer called boulangeries, but dépôts de pain. But there are still a lot of true boulangeries, especially in smaller towns.
Ah the corporations finally are working their way into Europe with their cheaper product that undercuts the small mom and pop business. I really can't stand the younger generation.

I eat very little Bread, usually get one Sourdough loaf a month from a local organic vegan bakery. For many years I made my own Sourdough starter and made some breads or pancakes with it. Never ho near Supermarket 'Bread' though we ate it as children. I'm 77 now and just don't eat much bread - mostly meat/fish/eggs and veggies/fruits. No Inflammation, no Candida etc.
If you’re 77 that means when you were a kid it was way back then. That means the bread your parents bought at the store was a lot more healthy back then than the garbage from nowadays.
@@BigMike-Soetoro I’m 70 and the number one seller on the nread shelf was Wonder Bread. Trust me, the assumption you made that food was purer then is not correct. By the 1940’s because of the need to have foods that wouldn’t spoil for the military in WWII, all kinds of chemicals started being added to food. Many are not allowed any more but unfortunately many are still being added to our food. I don’t think we will ever get to a point where we don’t have to read labels.
@@Dbb27 companies didn’t use all the processed garbage they do now
@@BigMike-Soetoro Mate, unfortunately we all eat garbage. The wheat what our grandparents used to eat has gone in 70ties. It was genetically modified so the grain which is used in the past is completely different than the one we use today. Not to mention the grain from Mesopotamia or from Egypt..it is completely different plant.
I am mostly a Ketovore but I have started buying organic forms of grains, milling them and making my own bread. Not only is the taste totally different but it is more filling and I only eat 1 slice per day. It is full of nutrients and it does depend upon which ingredients you use as to the quality and health benefits. I can't believe I was raised on junky store bought bread but even an old dog can learn new ways. I am 70 years-old and started changing things shortly after the pandemic began and I eat a totally different way.
Great response
My daughter has friends who when they go back to visit Russia, or go to Europe, they can eat all the bread, pasta, etc. and not gain weight. Here in the States they eat the same and gain weight. Another reason for the obesity levels here.
One of my favorite alternatives is Ethiopian Teff Injera flatbread. I add Teff flour to Einkorn when baking, along with wild harvested local Dock, and California Buckwheat seeds, and Nettle seeds, depending on what I’m making. But I love to experiment and make what I call rustic baked items.
Show me soft healthy bread in states. I can't find. I have an older bread machine in the 90s. You buy a box and it's all there and machine does the rest. Is this healthy???
Teff is 100% gluten free and the healthiest flour. Good choice.
I quit eating bread, and instead opted for baked potatoes for my starches. I don't feel tired all the time anymore.
potatoes here too. Im not ketogenic
That's a very good idea
I don't eat bread like I used to. But I still do and shouldn't.. I used to be prediabetic and I have lymphedema an incurable disease. And now I haven't checked my suger since 2020. I need to buy a blood glucose machine. What do you recommend I do

Just from cooking from scratch to me I don't have to worry about hidden ingredients in my meal, keto sweets .
Please keep away from fructose, msg, maltodextrin , more
Always read the ingredients. Even on your mayo, ketchup, mustard, salad dressing and more.
Yeah id say stick to fructose only if its already in the food like you are eating an apple for example, cause then it has fibers vitamins etc and the fructose is balanced but dont use it as a sweetener on its own...
And omg maltodextrineeee I hate them they are in basically all diabetic "sugar free" foods and even more and they make my gut feel so bad nowadays they put it basically in everything like omg even straight sugar is better just to make u understand how bad they are.
Also margarine they put it in many vegan things i saw and idk whyy just stick to extra vergin olive oil etc
Just make your own mayo it's literally like 5 ingredients and takes less than 5 minutes to make! People don't understand the low quality of eggs used in store brand mayo not to mention unless it says otherwise it's made with vegetable oil which is the worst oil possible!
@@Strive4GreatnessPOP true but at home you dont have the certainty that the eggs you buy are disease free and you dont cook it for mayo and secondly fresh mayo doesnt last as long so you have to keep remaking it. I think the oils and extras in mayo are the badguys mostly but I find a good brand here in italy with the few ingredients and extravirgin olive oil thats good
Maltodextrin is a shocker in everything including vitamins supplement and medications 😡
@@marcosg20248 You got that right.
I bloat SO badly when I eat bread! Even just one piece. I'm definitely addicted to those reasons you stated... I know it's not good for my body, but I "love" it. This video is definitely a huge help. I told my husband this is the video I needed to get me to stop eating it! Especially after the part you shared about heating/toasting it. I'm a recent cancer survivor and never want to go through that again!
I did notice, though, that when I eat other grains/oats, I still bloat. So I don't know if I just have an overall sensitivity to those things or what the issue is...
As always, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you Dr. Berg. After suffering stomach issues I asked my Dr. for an allergy test, went for bloodwork, had to go a 2nd time as I had to ask specifically to be tested for gluten. Found out that I have a gluten allergy, I’ve stopped eating it and feel much better. In Paris back in June I indulged with a couple of croissants from a fresh bakery and I was fine. On the Delta flight home I thought maybe I can have a piece of bread and be ok - I was keeled over in pain for several hours, thankfully was in a lie-flat seat. No-one in my family has these gluten issues, I’m the only one that moved to the US. Being a gluten free vegetarian who fasts makes going out to restaurants these days very challenging! I’ve been advising all my friends to get tested. My Dr. said that if I had kept eating gluten that it would eventually turn into celiac disease.
I don't eat much bread but watching this video makes feel glad to live in Europe where we can get fresh bread from the bakery everyday.
@@Chaos1612mr Bread is a really bad food choice even in Europe, we need to change our minds
still bad for you
@@niksatan that's why I said I do not eat much of it 😂
German here. Our real bread is great. Toast and stuff like that can't be very healthy. Who had thought so... surprise, surprise.
I guessed they missed where he said the chemicals in American bread are NOT found in European bread. Just gotta love the Karen’s that don’t look before they leap lool.
Sourdough is the best! Mmmmm
I found a bread called, Rye Sourdough by Bread Alone.
Toasted with real olive oil with spices is delicious..
Australia has many great artisan sourdough bakeries.
Sourdough is a common migraine trigger for those who have migraine disease. I used to joke that I got migraines just from looking at a loaf of sourdough bread!
I started buying wheat berries, milling them myself to make whole wheat flour and making my own bread. It made a huge difference! The bread I make only contains fresh milled flour, olive oil, yeast, water, honey, salt and an egg. I know everything that is in my bread and it is all natural. Like Dr. Berg said, the problem with store breads is they contain too much gluten. Gluten isn't so much of a problem when it's left at the levels that are naturally in wheat to begin with but when you add more gluten, you overload your system. My wife is gluten sensitive, and she can eat my bread with no issues. The other thing is the fiber that is in bread is stripped out. The germ and endosperm are sifted out, and you're mostly left with the starchy white flour. The sifted parts are sold as cattle feed. We need those sifted parts to provide our system with the balanced fiber needed to eat wheat. This is why so many people have issues eating bread in America.
I mill my own wheat too, best thing I did for my family!
How do you keep your bread from not going stale too fast I make it and it’s like a rock the next day
@@missamerica2478 One thing I learned about cooking is that recipes are just guidelines, and you can't follow them exactly the way they are written. When I started cooking bread, this was definitely the case! From what I've experienced with fresh milled whole wheat bread, is that a lot of times I have to add all my ingredients to a bowl, except the yeast and 1 1/2 cups of flour. I give the wet ingredients a quick mix and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. This allows the flour to absorb more of the water. This helps tremendously to keep moisture in the bread.
Some other thing I've noted is many times I use a bit more olive oil than what is called for. Again this for more moisture/oiliness in the bread. I also allow more time for the bread to rise after adding the yeast.
I cook my bread to 185 degrees. If the bread gets any hotter than this it starts to overcook.
As far as storage, I don't keep bread in the refrigerator. It will dry it out with the quickness! I keep my bread in a plastic bag and then in a bread box that sits on the counter at room temp. My bread will usually stay good for about 5 days, but it never lasts that long with my girls eating it all the time. 🙂
Where can you get the wheat berries
@@Theebarb I get mine on Amazon from Great River Organic Milling. I usually buy soft white and hard red and blend them for my bread. A 25 pound bag of each had lasted me 9 months.
I grew up in Germany, I love the bakeries, the bread is soi delicious. Thanks for always bringing us important facts!
I really don't eat bread at all anymore I stopped eating bread last year in 2022, & I really feel a whole lot better, my body & stomach feel whole lot better without it. I only eat much healthier foods like my veggies & fruits, some chicken & fish, plus cheese, like string cheese❤😊🥰. I love it. Plus I cut out all fast foods, also all the chips I cut out. I feel a whole lot better & good. Everyones bodies, & stomachs are different. It's always really good to fully listen to your whole body of it's telling you. I listened to my body.
Thankfully I've hated my bread my whole life so that wasn't one I had to worry about. The only thing I miss sometimes is cornbread which is horrible for me if made with corn from the U.S.
So lucky to live in Europe. I always buy fresh bread from the baker.
@@m.m.226 I miss that!

Fasting has me feeling like a completely different person. I've learned so much from Dr Berg videos and his community posts on RUclips
I just left a comment about Dr Paul Bragg and then read your post. I read his book on the miracle of Fasting in 1989 and followed everything he said and it worked and was rejuvenated and that glow of life your skin radiates after all the toxins and poisons are flushed from your system is like a rebirth. I did the test he prescribed just before the end of the fast and kept a urine sample in a glass jar with a very tight lid and stored in an unlit area for a few weeks. When I brought it out it was as he described it would be and more and he said do not open the lid its one thing to see what death and humanities ills look like but its even worse to know what they smell like. Black coagulate globs and hideous shapes of diseases trapped in a glass jar. It's a must read and cure most diseases and depression.

Ezekiel bread(sprouted grain bread) has a glycemic index of 35, whereas regular white bread has a glycemic index of 72-80 or even higher! Because Ezekiel bread is shipped and kept frozen it tends to be dryer and certainly more expensive but worth the price if you’re diabetic or have any insulin resistance. 😊.

rice cakes are also dangerous and a very poor alternative to bread
As a carnivore I wouldn't eat either, but white rice is the thing I would eat if I had to. Far less damaging.

I'm 42. when I was a kid, American store bought, breads would start to get moldy after about a week if not used up. Milk would start to curdle if opened & not used up within about the same. Not anymore. I found a partial bag of unused hamburger buns at the back of my mom's cuboard that had no mold & was purchased more than 4 MONTHS ago. I haven't had a container of pasteurized milk go sour in the past 10 yrs. What are they doing to our food to make them super resistant to perishing?? It's gotten to the point I'm afraid to consume or let my family consume almost anything I can pick up from a regional grocery store chain. I never bring my kids grocery shopping bc I have to say no to almost anything they ask for. It's scary.
I had a milk that went real gross fast. But bread no
Ezekiel bread is meant to keep in freezer till you are ready to eat it. Hence goes bad fast otherwise
I found that to be the case too. Left my loaf of Ezekiel bread on the counter for a few days. Went to make toast and there was a bunch of mold on several slices.☹️ Now I keep it refrigerated or frozen. Makes me think it's pretty healthy.
Best bread is no bread at all.
Have lost over 35 pounds on intermittent fasting and completely moving away from sugar and breads
Many gluten sensitivities and other problems would disappear if chemicals in the food system which were damaging to gut lining integrity were banned (like glyphosate).
I eat Ezekiel. It is so yummy . It gives me energy . Keeps me full .
I love what you do Dr Berg. One of the best health channels out there!
The earliest bread our European ancestors ate was acorn bread. Made with 100% white oak acorns from the early Neolithic period - while Stonehenge was being built.
I read that grain had given the Stonehenge builders the wealth to build a powerful ruling class
@@elizabethmelvin6276 The original people there tinkered with agriculture for 5k years before building phase one. Yes grain was wealth for them but not as much as livestock. I think barley was one of the major crops before wheat or rye.
Henry Miller wrote about the horrible American bread way back in the 1940s.
Gluten in bread is the only protein humans can’t digest. Gluten side effects include gut inflammation and health conditions like celiac disease
Einkorn is an ancient grain that has not been altered in a long time. Einkorn bread doesn’t have quite the same texture or mouthfeel as bread that's high in gluten, but it's close, and very few people have gut reactions to it.
Modern grains are very high in phytic acid-a compound that binds with minerals such as zinc, iron, magnesium, manganese, calcium, and copper. Phytic acid is not absorbed in the small intestine, so you won’t be able to absorb the minerals it binds with.
Some cultures that consume high amounts of bread have zinc and iron deficiencies because of the phytic acid.
In the U.S., bread sometimes contains BVO or potassium bromate, ingredients banned in Europe. Wheat in the U.S. is often dried out with glyphosate, the chemical found in Roundup. Toasting bread creates acrylamide, which may lead to cancer.
Try this healthy Keto-Friendly Einkorn Bread recipe!
Ingredients
•1/2 cup Einkorn flour
•1 cup almond flour
•1/4 cup coconut flour
•1/4 cup ground flaxseed
•2 teaspoons baking powder
•1/2 teaspoon salt
•1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
•1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
•4 large eggs
•1/4 cup melted butter
•1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
•1 teaspoon stevia or erythritol (optional, for a sweeter taste)
•1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional, for a more savory flavor)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease or line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment.
2. Combine dry ingredients (Einkorn, almond, and coconut flours, flaxseed, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum). Mix until thoroughly combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients (eggs, melted butter, almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and sweetener). Ensure the wet ingredients are well blended.
4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until the mixture forms a thick batter. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Fold in optional ingredients such as shredded cheese, herbs, or spices.
6. Transfer batter to loaf pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula to ensure the mixture is evenly distributed.
7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
8. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Once the bread has cooled, slice it with a sharp bread knife. Serve it plain, toasted, or with your favorite keto-friendly toppings like avocado, butter, or cheese.
Thank you Dr Berg!
😺👍
Is this a bread recipe? Lol
@@alexjones9171 yes its by dr berg in his notes
GREAT INFORMATION ONCE AGAIN, DON’T EAT LOW FIBER, CHEMICAL BREAD 😇👍🏾
It's scary a lot of the food we eat these days 😢
Food corporations know what they are doing to our health . They have a solution big pharma treats the symptoms . They have created a closed loop of profit.
This comment is the truth 💯
You are the best doctor 🥇
Hi friend
I agree.😊
My D2 blood sugar was going up & up for 2 months, because of 3 weeks of flu, followed by an injury, which has resulted in hardly any exercise. It was 7-8+ every morning , with medication. 3 days ago I came off bread, and my blood sugar dropped 3 points overnight, and is maintaining at a healthy 5-6. Bread is definitely the hardest addiction to overcome. This time is the final time!
Thank you ❤💯💚
The world needs more of your wisdom, intelligence, knowledge, care, empathy, love and kindness ... ❤💫💚
Most welcome, and agreed! Appreciate your support!
Been eating Ezekial bread for over 30 years, love it.
I started eliminating lunch from my day (I work construction building houses) as it was the main meal I’d be consuming breads/grains. I feel so much better, way more energy. I drink electrolytes and perhaps have some fruit or protein. The worst part is the looks from coworkers as they sit down for their giant sandwiches and burgers
Don't sit with them 👍 not obligated to.
Only 3,000 bakeries 😮. The supermarkets are fully in control of your food supply 😮
This man is one of the guiding angels in my life. ❤
Thank you Dr. Eric Berg for all those wonderful information you were sharing us. And i wish you more success in your youtube channel..❤
Most welcome, Maria! Thanks for watching. Appreciate the support!
Great topic and video.. the US wants you to live off big businesses.. support your local farmers.. thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
No. Almond flour is way too high in oxalates!!!
Exactly! Almonds flour is not good. I found a keto bakery that uses coconut flour. We use them for any special treats, like for birthdays.
Acorn flour 👍
@@Dreoilin Thank you very much. 💕😊
Is almonds bad fir you too??
@@latonyahill8950 very inflammatory
Thank you Doctor Berg ❤
You're welcome! I hope this explains why you should stop eating bread and try healthy alternatives. I’ll see you in the next video.
Great video. I removed all bread from my eating habits except for pumpernickel bread. I eat pumpernickel bread because I read that it can actually help with digestion, and contains heart healthy fats. 🌿
In Dr. Eric, we trust!
Thank you!
Appreciated, thanks for watching!
Sourdough is the bomb.
I eat Ezekial bread which is supposed to be the way bread was made for 2,000 years. It gets moldy after 4 days so it has to be put in the freezer
Hmm but I live in Italy. And here in Europe most people have gut problems and inflammation etc. so the bread is equal bad lol
Yes, people in the US think that it is heaven on earth here.
@@euhdink4501not really I had problems too, I never eat gluten again in my life…. It’s bad wherever u are..
Most people? Not sure where exactly in europe you live lmfao
Most people? I think that's a bit of an over exaggeration.
@@hesitatenothing a lot of… and I wrote in Italy.
My daughter was having stomach issues, for months. We were worried because we didn't know what it was. She even had to drop out of school because lost too many classes. Finally, we found out she is allergic to GLUTTEN! Now she is eating gluten-free and feels awesome again.
Great video, one other thing about all bread is that the crust is made of glycated proteins. This can increase it's inflammatory impact on the body and negatively affects blood sugar. Remember HbA1C is a glycated protein which measures the inflammatory impact of excess sugar in the blood.
We recently stopped eating bread as a family. No more pancakes, muffins, cereal, no more oatmeal…my ankles don’t swell anymore
Organic oatmeal is gluten free. Eat it! It's the very best and takes the toxins from your body and flushes them out. It also lowers sugar. Lowers cholesterol, improves brain power and greatly uses your chances of colorectal cancer because of the high fiber content.
Wow that's like all the good stuff. I mean I know it's bad but it's all the yummy stuff. So what do you eat now if I may ask? I'm addicted to gluten
@@wanjawaf we mostly eat protein, fruits, & vegetables…little white rice. Sometimes once in a while we’ll indulge in sourdough from a bakery since it’s cleaner. But heavy on the protein is key 🔑 if I eat bread I can’t walk the next day since I have RA
@@lindawee5187 Organic oatmeal is the best!! That's one car you should never stop taking. It cleans out your colon and reduces the chances of cancer in many different ways. And, it's low glycemic!
@@theatreforesight my daughter has Crohns & was eating organic oatmeal daily, it caused her constipation everyday. I think from the Gliadin in oatmeal
I only buy and eat organic nowadays .
Wow Dr Berg I really like this new video format it feels entertaining and the short form really makes me feel like you work hard and containsed the information. Being following for years now and subscribe for years and I like this evolution.
I make sourdough bread about once a week, and my gut seems to have no problems with it. I use organic unbleached flower and organic wheat flour. I love this bread , and it doesn’t cause me inflammation that I know of. I don’t eat tons of it though because of all the carbs, but it tastes fantastic especially when it’s still warm out of the oven.
I'm a 19 year old male eager learner regarding health/lifestyle.
I started considering what I consume about 1.5 years ago and I'm happy I learned more about these early.
Thank you 🤝
Many can't afford the healthy foods that you should eat. All healthy foods are very high priced. When I cut some things out I loose weight, and I don't need to loose any at all. I don't want to be skin and bones.
You can obtain calories from healthier alternatives. Eggs, coconuts, nuts
3-Ingredient Avocado Bread
Recipe please?😊
Love to have recipe. Love avocado too.
Respect for your work you put in
Thank you!
Good morning mom…another nice day in Barrie!❤👍☕️
The Ezekeil bread isnt bad and it brings sotiety from a couple slices. Good stuff, minus the price.
I do not like Exekeil bread....way to dry and tasteless.
@@littlehummingbird1015I eat the cinnamon raisin flavor with ghee spread on it. It tastes fantastic.
To much things in it like sugar I quit eating it !
@toriwolf5978 maybe just the cinnamon one? I have the orange bag ezekiel right now and I just checked the label and didn't see that. Man! Can't have nothing healthy anymore. What are they trying to do to us??!
@@Puppylove82-gv3gm What are you talking about? The orange bag has 0 grams of sugar. Also, no sugar at all in the ingredients.
I like eating sandwiches between pieces of lettuce. Yummy.
