@@Drberg 👋🏻 could you please do a video on Perimenopause/menopause and hormones 👈🏻 (please) also a video on HORMONES triggering the HEART ♥️ to flare 👈🏻 (please) also (sorry so many desperate video’s I want to see you’re the best DR BERG) perimenopause and digestion (GI) issues 👈🏻 (thank you 🙏🏻 DR BERG)
I woke up 2.3 times during the night, it really bothered me. After I listened to you and began to take vitamin B1, apple cider vinegar, I don’t eat carbs anymore. And a miracle happened after 2 weeks! I no longer wake up at night. WOW Thanks Dr. Berg, you are the best! 🤩🤩💖💖💙💙💛💛
B1 DEFICIENCY! wow! So, take B1 (Benfotimine) Do Keto & Intermittent Fasting Drink2.5 liters h2o Add apple cider vinegar to h2o Reduce caffeine Massage bladder I think I got it all Thx, Dr. Berg!!!! GOD BLESS YOU FOR ALL THE VALUABLE INFO THAT YOU SHARE!!!
I think I just discovered something that works even better!I found a Dr Ho's foot pain/massger gives a little shock up the feet and legs...I noticed I wemt longer before having to need to use bathroom during the night!
B1 also corrects anxiety, panic attacks, nightmares, racing heart, dizziness, bouts of hypertension, low energy, foggy brain, inability to focus, feeling extremely cold, adrenal exhaustion, feeling “not like myself” and other seemingly unrelated symptoms. All due to too many carbs in my case (I fell off Keto) and all corrected with large amounts of B1. Now back on keto and feeling back to normal
@@cleocatra9324 add to those irritability, inability to withstand any stress, digestive issues, depression and yes, even weakened pelvic floor muscles. All issues have more or less been resolved, at least much much improved after 3 weeks of taking large doses of B1. I'm still continuing to build up reserves and make sure things are back to normal.
@@martine3884 I just started taking D3 and will try B1 seriously I have had horrible anxiety and panic disorder. I only had a bladder issue from not going to the bathroom at work because it was filthy but it’s resolved now.
I have spent my entire life dealing with urinary issues, have seen a dozen urologists with very few answers but have never heard this advice. Thank you so much!
He is gaining popularity so rapidly because of his style of communication. I hate blabbermouths. He gets right to the point explains it, fleshes it out and hands you the solution! “Just the facts, sir, just the facts.”
I'm fortunate. Been a T-1 diabetic since age 19. I'm now 71. No diabetic neuropathy. No bladder issues. I walk 2 miles four to five times weekly. Lost a lot of weight. And eat healthy. Plus, I have a great endocrinologist. Your videos are very helpful. Thanks.
I had type 2 diabetes and spent time in the hospital back in June. They wanted to give me insulin if my blood sugar was more than 72, so I saw the food service offered cinnamon & ordered some. I drank 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon (it was ceylon cinnamon, much milder) 3 times throughout a 24 hr period, including around midnight because they would do a finger stick very early. The only time my sugar was higher was one morning when I went to sleep early & didn't drink anything with cinnamon in it for over 12 hours, but even then it was only 80! They were going to give me a shot but I told them to wait and test again later, I drank a cup of decaf tea w/cinnamon & my breakfast. Later my test came out under 72! I've lost weight & my last blood draw in Oct. at my regular Dr. had my A1C at 5.9. He said technically I was no longer diabetic! I'm still trying to lose weight but I've dropped 35 lbs since last January. I'm still using cinnamon with my meals & will continue because it slows down the absorption of sugar and reduces the insulin spikes What I found is most medical staff, especially doctors gave me dirty looks when I said the cinnamon works (they even started testing my blood sugar 5 times a day, quite excessive, if you ask me) but it was always low except for that one time. Too many medical professionals are stuck in the politics of pharmecuiticals or making kick backs with free samples to want to let go of keeping people on pharmecuiticals!😢
The average diabetic brings over 750,000 each to the Medical Industry, mostly due to the fact the synthetic-chemical based meds (incl the fillers & carriers) severely damage the kidneys over time, hence there now being a Dialysis Center in every other shopping center after Nixon signed a bill aaying the government would pay for it (back when there were only 9,000 people nationwide needing it). 70% of diabetics end up on dialysis, unless something else bumps them off first. So there is zero incentive for our for-profit Medical System to cure diabetes, which is mostly a toxin-excreting HHV-4 variant viral infection of the liver or pancreas. Everyone carries HHV-4 semi-dormantly nowadays, with no 2 people having the EXACT same symptoms since their diet, viral substrain combinations, natural immune system strength, and toxin exposure all differ. Cure is the same: 'Clean' low fat super-nutrition, with plenty of cancer-preventing colorful phytonutrients, 30+ trace minerals, plus sea, fermented, and raw vegetables ( thus active enzymes, phytonutrients, & iodine, etc.), all of which are lacking in the Western diet.
Fenugreek seeds works as well.. soak a spoon overnight.. drink the water in the morning, let the seeds sprout for a day and chew them or use them in food or salad
Bladder issues are SO debilitating. I used to walk for many hours every day but since I started having problems can not stray far from a loo! Thank you, Dr Berg - things are now back to normal since I followed your advice. So grateful.
Imagine my surprise when I just saw this. For years if I need to urinate and don’t immediately go I will feel like urinating every minute and each time just a little comes out. I have googled this many times but never found an answer that explains what is happening. I’ve also asked friends and they all say they dont experience this. For years I believed there’s no hope. I haven’t been to the hospital concerning this because no one seems to know what I’m talking about. You are the first person who has explained exactly what I’m feeling. Thank you for now showing me that there is a way around this and the cause behind it. Thank you truly.
Dr. Berg, I am a 66 year old pre-diabetic. To say that I frequently urinate is an understatement! I also have severe COPD. After watching one of your informative RUclips videos, I came to the conclusion that I may have a severe B1 deficiency, so I started taking it every morning. It's been about two weeks now and the heaviness and numbness that I have felt on the left side of my left calf (for nearly ten years!) is waning, and I don't have to urinate as often as I did two weeks ago! Here's something else I noticed: I use Flonase spray frequently to unclog my nose, which is constantly stuffed. Lately, I noticed that I don't have to use the spray as often because I seem to be breathing much easier. I also have more energy during the day, and when I wake up in the morning the chapped skin that frequently formed on the left side of my mouth is gone! (Due to the COPD, I sleep with the left side of my mouth open and that's what has been causing the chapped skin to form on the side of my mouth every morning.) Thanks to watching your videos, I am feeling much better! Please keep posting them! You are truly a credit to the medical profession!
If you're pre diabetic you would be taking metaformin. Exercise has been the MOST effective way to control pre-diabetes. Do not depend on diet alone. Go to a gym, and do higher intensity exercise, as high as you are comfortable with. If you don't know, most grain based foods are fortified with vitamin B groups. Look in the nutritional fact panel if you want to know what I mean. If you eat a lot of junk foods, you do not have any vitamin B deficiency. Fact is most food in developed countries are often fortified or enriched, but if you really want to make sure you are getting vitamins naturally, eat whole grains. Unless you live in a third world country you shouldn't be having much vitamin deficiency. However in my case pre diabetes doesn't adequately explain my urination problem, because my A1C is already out of prediabetes range, but the problem persist. In fact for me my experience has been more of my body seemingly needs less water than normal. Means I pee a lot, pee comes out crystal clear, and I'm not thirsty nor have I drank a lot of water or liquids. Not sure what is the problem. Problem is worse in the winter when I don't sweat a whole lot.
Suffering from this very high frequent urination with No sugar, No issues. Every test was normal. I think you got it and saved me. Cannot thank you enough.
I damaged my whole bladder system for the 8 months I was coughing hard and incessantly due to an undiagnosed histamine intolerance. Now I'm healing my gut and avoiding histamine containing or producing food, and this will help me undo the bladder damage, too. Thank you!
You could also reduce your histamines by taking a European supplement called Toxaprevent. The DAO enzyme is hit or miss with me. I also reordered Benifuuki green tea that's good for that.
@@beedebawng2556 Well, if you're having trouble sleeping, get sinus headaches, muscle tightness, itching of the skin, overreaction to mosquito bites. There are different symptoms.
I started B1 and apple cider vinegar a week ago. I noticed a difference within 24 hours. I have more energy and don't feel like taking a nap every afternoon on my desk. Still want to change my jobs but that is a problem no doctor can fix. ;)
My fathers dog had an operation and couldn’t urinate when she was home. He took her to the vets but as she jumped from the car onto the curb her bladder burst and she died at the vets. I rang the chemist but it was closed to get her b1 . I still have trauma for that dear dog and her suffering. The vets should have made sure she was able to use the toilet before releasing her to go home.
after a prostate op, the damn clinic let me go home without making sure my bladder was working; later the night after I had to go to the emergency room for a catheter. Damn them all. I want AI doctors.
Don’t hesitate to get them to try this! My mom and my aunt suffered with frequent urination for many years and it kept giving them both painful uti that they could only use antibiotics for. It never helped. My mom passed from kidney disease from it ( went on dialysis for several months) and was kinda ok but couldn’t walk… discharged to nursing home and got sepsis again and died last November. Just came back from aunt funeral who died from frequent urination, uti’s , same antibiotic treatments over time and dementia and arthritis and heart failure - I believe from the chronic inflammation so long! I couldn’t help them. If the docs don’t prescribe it some absolutely won’t try it. 😢
@@eyeshalfwayopeneyeshalfway2603 It's crazy how brainwashed people are to take ANYTHING a doctor prescribes!! The THIRD leading cause of death is .... (drum roll!): Medical mistakes (which include faulty diagnoses and the wrong medications).
Hi, I have the same... for how long have you been like this and what treatments are you in? There is another video about Varuna (tree from India), Dr Berg says it helps.
What an amazing service Dr. Berg is providing to us! He makes everything easy to understand, straight forward, never condescending, and maybe just as important, the presentations are fascinating enough to watch to the end each time. 🥰
At the end of the video presentation there isn't an order form to buy 30 tablets for $50 plus postage. Dr Eric Berg is a great human being sharing his knowledge; providing advice and solutions for people to improve their health. Thank you. A true servant of God. Amen.
Dr I have been trying to take care of bladder issues since I was 2. In and out of urologist offices. Medicines, to PTNS I’m tired. I’m almost 44 next month and I’m depressed. I’m over the accidental leaks and to the part wearing bladder protection underwear. I literally been searching the web and I just stumbled on this. Praying this works for me.
Dr Berg, I owe you a reply here. I have been suffering from incomplete urine (not being able to empty bladder) for more than 10 years. Bought the Vitamin B complex, took it for 2 days, now the problem is gone completely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve had urine incontinence problems since having children. Nothing has helped, I will use this information to further help my help health problems. Thank you doc! 😊
@@allhimwithme5115the reason doctors don’t, is because they stop learning. most doctors do not continue educating themselves. It is up to the patient to educate themselves before going to see a doctor/specialist.
I watched this video and I'm so glad I did!!! You have changed my life for the better!!! I started taking the vitamin B1. I got the fat soluble one 4-5 days later. I don't want to jinx myself but it's working!!! I usually eat a low carb diet. No health issues but if I have to go, when I see the toilet, I can't control it!!! Years of this!! I can't Thank you enough for helping me!!! I can even sleep through the night now!!! God Bless you and keep up the Great things you do for Everyone!!! I'm on cloud 9❤
The length of time also depends entirely on the extent of nerve damage. Some people could take months or even years to heal the nerve damage for things to start working better again.
I thought I may be having a heart failure. Congestive heart failure kidney failure when it comes to what I was feeling. Found out it was B12 deficiency B1 deficiency. Thank you doctor!
Oh my gosh! Thank you!! My son (who had a brain bleed at birth and became developmentally delayed) has been potty trained since he was younger than 4 years old tho. He all the sudden 6 months ago at 7 years old started to lose control of his bladder and we had gone from glutenfree dairy free to not any more so he could have more energy since he was struggling. I CAN NOT beleive what a blessing you are!!! We have been to everywhere and to every doctor. Even urologists. They all chuck it up to behavioral or the brain bleed etc. A mom always knows when something is wrong or that it's not the right answer. I just know this is it based on your explanation! God bless you Dr. BERG!!!!
10-3-2024. DR. BERG. I have had a urinary problem of urinating immediately as I stand…..from having come up from a prone position……..for ONE YEAR. I have ALSO been taking LARGE dosages of : Vitamin B1 ( Thiamine form ) AND Vitamin B1 ( Benfotiamine form ). Your advice has NOT stopped it. My physician has NOT stopped it. I live in pads and STILL need to change my underwear a few times each day. NOT a happy camper. 10-3-2024.
Have you seen a pelvic Physio. They can be very helpful. Please don’t ever put mesh in your body (sling,tape). It will wreck you. Hope to you you find answers 🙏
@@wholeenchilada9599 I am not positive yet, but will find out Tuesday, but I THINK I have found my answer ! It will take more time and explaining than you’d want to read, so let me say this. Last week I had my eyes tested/treated. The next day I noticed a tiny difference. It has been improving each day since then. So, I googled asking “ Can urinary issues be connected with my eyes ? “ YES. I am extremely hopeful that FINALLY I am on the right track, and hope on Tuesday, I will receive positive news for SURE ! Thank you for your comment. There is NO WAY I would allow the mesh to be inserted !❤️
I pray that everyone suffering from any illness or financial difficulties , emotional pain or spiritual attacks be saved by the grace and mercy of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Amen
I had bladder polyps... "pre-carncerous," whatever that means. They were due to my lifestyle as a working musician, inhaling second hand smoke, day after day, week, month, year.... It is a brutal life... it doesn't surprise me that so many musicians die so young. I do have a neuropathy, and am mega- dosing B1... I've also given up performing for a living... I became a welder, mechanic, and cat dad.
Also eliminate all GMOs from your diet they will cause polyps. I've had them removed from my sinuses and my gallbladder. I believe it was due to my depression during a bad marriage and consuming Mass amounts of nacho cheese Doritos. I am now a hundred percent organic
I thought I was having bladder infection/irritation but it was from DIM supplementing. Also, eating raw pumpkin seeds daily has helped me with urgency. (About to celebrate 3 years keto in April!!☺) Thank you Dr B!!
YES!!! I gave our dog pumpkin seed extract for her incontinence and it totally took care of her leaking. If we ran out there'd be tell-tale drips on the floor. No one can say a dog has psychosomatic responses so I'm thoroughly convinced it has to really work.
@@rymlm9038 It stands for a long chemical compound, and is used in Dr. Berg's (& other brands') supplement for balancing one's estrogen (men, too) in the body. I'd like to know how it caused the problem for the OP, hillarybanks.
@@Primal391 it is dim. It makes my urine dark and pass slower and more frequently. When I stop my dim, those side effects stop very quickly but my hot flashes keep me up at night. I was very worried until i saw a good video on dim explaining these things.
I just want to thank Dr.Berg particularly for this video clip, I took vitamin B1 for 1 week and I felt like a different person! Significantly improvement on urgency, frequency of urination and focus! Thanks a million
Hi Dr Berg. I’m a 16 year old female. Last summer I became anorexic. Tofu and spinach were the only foods I didn’t fear to eat, and so I ate a lot of soy for about a month. I lost a lot of weight, the condition of my skin was terrible and I experienced a lot of stress. In autumn my mental health went back to normal. I got really concerned about my period loss. I even started eating meat again after years of vegetarianism. I’ve been feeling very good lately, I even grew a little bit taller, and look a lot healthier, but unfortunately there’s still no sign of my period 😞. I’ve gotten it once in January, but then it just disappeared again. I don’t stress a lot nowadays, but sometimes I start panicking due to my period not coming back. What should I do? Edit: Thank You all for the tips and heartwarming words♥️
Hi Vivian, have you checked with a doctor first? Also check for videos of vegans who lost their period and how long did it took to heal. I think the average is 6 months to a year.
@@larryc1616 My BMI had always been quite low, even when everything was okay and I had my period regularly. The most I weighted in my life was around 43kg (I’m 164/5’4)
Yes, good question because your periods are a reflection of your fertility. I would re-evaluate your foods and make sure what I recommend in my books and videos - making sure the foods are nutrients, like seafood, shellfish for example. You need the trace minerals - high quality eggs are also essential and you may also need more vitamin D3 - like 10,000 IUs.
I think you're right about this doc. Since I been taking B complex I don't go to the bathroom a lot at night. Thank you so much for this information. God bless ❤️
I’ve been experiencing bladder urgency and I decided to cut out coffee. The problem went away. Now I drink herbal tea. After 3 months I decided to have a cup of coffee and I was soon doing the “potty dance”. Your info is spot on Dr and I thank you so much. I’m going to buy some B1 and I already do the apple cider vinegar (per your suggestion). Thanks for all the great info Dr! You are a gem!
Its the caffeine. I drink decaf and herb tea. Coffee has other good things, e.g. kidney function, so I keep drinking it. Caffeine irritates the bladder, so my specialist told me. When I cut caffeine out I stopped having urgency.
Same boat, although I take the R type alpha lipoic acid with it. It's been 9 weeks and no change. However, if you have real nerve damage (autonomic neuropathy), I've been told by a neurologist that fixing nerve damage through diet & supplements is going to take a long time to notice anything. 3-6 months should be the timeframe to look for the slightest change. It could take a couple years to to correct the problem. And... It might not correct at all. But don't give up hope!
Thank you thank you thank you! I can attest to the fact that for YEARS I have had problems sleeping through the night, and always had to get up in the middle of the night to relieve myself. Over the past 6-9 months I began taking B1 in order to help with my mood and lower stress. The very first time I took a B1 just before bed, I slept straight through the night - first time in literally years! This healthy trend has continued. While I do not take B1 every night, I do take one B1 tab maybe 2-3 times per week, usually after the evening meal or just before bed. I'm now able to sleep through the night almost every night now, and I have much more energy during the day, with few mid afternoon slumps. I cannot thank you enough for again giving us great information that works!
Love the opening of this video. I am a retired ICU nurse. My daughter is currently an ICU nurse. We had a conversation recently about why do you need to be an ICU nurse to get decent health information today. So much garbage out there, and the healthcare system is broken. It is all based on here is a pill, go away.
Dr. Berg; you have done so much to enhance our health in many ways. I have one tiny beef with physicians and others who begin to explain technical matters, mention anatomical or biochemical terms, and say, "you do not need to know that." That gives me pause because it is condescending. Just as you can understand technical terms, so can we. Therefore, I encourage you to use the technical terminology, unapologetically, and educate us; then, move on. If you can learn "big words," so can we. Thanks again for your great service.
Great info. After years of struggling with bladder issues, I was told that I might have interstitial cystitis. When I did my research on this and the foods that irritate the bladder I found that 100% of the foods that I should avoid with IC are the same foods that have been messing up my digestive system. Would love a video on IC.
I had interstitial cystitis after bladder cancer which I had cured with homeopathy. My osteopath recommended marshmallow route 30 drops, three times a day for six months and it completely healed my bladder. It also repairs your stomach lining. Worked for me. Good luck. Namaste 🙏💜🙏
I forgot to say that I was told that interstitial cystitis is caused by taking antibiotics when you do not have an infection which is often the case with drug dealing doctors!
My sister in law had IC. She hurt while going to the bathroom for several years. The doctors methods gave her no relief. I found out about it at a party. Told her to try two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar before every meal. She went home that night and tried it. She had never called me in the 30 some years I have known her. She called me at 5 am lol and told me she peed for the first time in years without pain. That was maybe 10 years ago. She has since quit taking and the problem seems to be resolved. It was just a hunch on my part but it apparently worked for her. Terry
I have this problem since a few months now. I was worried and went for a check up of my prostate. I tried all vitamins already. But it seems Thiamin is the missing link for me. I observed in this video almost all symptoms I have. And I observe although I have Vit B1 it's only Benfotamine I have in my closet and I never eat pork nor rice or anything that's on the list of recommended food for Thiamin. I will start eating lentils tomorrow! I am 100% confident this is going to work. Thanks again Dr Bergh! You are a invaluable resource for me.
I thank God for coming across this video! And thank you for sharing it!! I had this type of issues at nite,went to my personal doctor and he never mentioned to me the ..B1.vitamine at all! It has been 2weeks now since I'm taking them, 80% of my issues are gone!! Thank you so much again!! God bless you always 🙏
Very important for me is to know you are authentic ! Thank you very much for all! ❤ I really benefit from your presentations. May God bless your great work.
I'm 73 with fibromyalgia. I have urine incompetence. The fibromyalgia came on at age 30. A wise Dr. put me on vitamin B shots which helped immensely. I would become so exhausted before each weekly shot that my mind wouldn't work. Total exhaustion. After divorcing the complete care of my four children fell upon me. I was able to go back to college and later work as a teacher though ended up hospitalized which extreme allergic reactions or unable to walk. It took 17 years to diagnose. The shots literally saved my family life. Teaching school took me to another state where shots were not given and it was rough. I recommend shots for those that don't do well on pills or drops. Fifteen minutes after a shot I could think clearly again and my strength returned. I'm a near invalid now, disabled as weekly shots are a no go in this state.
I used to get vitamin B shots and then switched to a methylated B supplement. There are also liposomal methylated Vitamin B supplements options too. I found them to be just as effective. Give them a try!
hi Linda not sure if I urged you to get tested for lyme at igenex Labs in California. Most sensitive tests . Yes expensive but worth it for getting a real diagnosis and then treatment. Please try to do that with a lyme literate physician. Please try everything asap. Best, Joy ( I had it then got treated after diagnosis!)
I took d-mannose for a bladder infection and not only did it get rid of the bladder infection ( symptoms were gone in within 6 hours) but since of urgency that i had talked to my integrative doctor over past year also went away!!
Did it affect your blood sugar? Spike it? It stops irritants from adhering to the urinary walls. My mom takes it, but I was wondering how it affects blood sugar as it is a type of sugar.
De. Berg, you are an Angel!!! How many health issues we have in our family and thanks to your programs and your dedication we are all getting and feeling better. I'm going through menopause and I have the worst scenery, including frequent urination but im reducing the carbs and taking the vitamins D and B1,etc, following always your advises and I'm feeling much better now..Thank you!! It's amazing what you are doing for all of us in this difficult times we are living. Thank you so much may God protect you and bless you and your family!!!
✨ Dear Dr. Berg ✨ Many thanks to you and your staff for these life supporting, thought provoking, well explained videos. Everyone you've helped will never be the same, including me.
I have overactive bladder and already take B1, so I ordered Benfotiamine. Really hope it helps because I’m tired of going to the bathroom 15 times a day.
THANK YOU FOR THIS! I used to get up 10 times a night and sometimes not even urinating much. Ever since I started taking Benfotiamine, like your video says to, it STOPPED completely! You're genius, and you care about people's health. That's what I love about you. You're my go-to doctor for any questions.
Thank you! I am on medication for overactive bladder for over a year now. I was told there was no cure for it and i would be on medicine unless i got botox shots in my bladder every 6 months. I will get getting B1 supplement ASAP!
UPDATE! I have been taking the B1 and Benfotamine supplements for the last 2 months and i definitely see the difference. Thank you! Question… do i have to continue to take these supplements daily or do i stop since im no longer deficient in B1???
Ten years ago I began experiencing urinary pain and frequency. I was eventually Dx with Interstitial Cystitis despite not finding a Hunner's Ulcer in my bladder. I was eventually Dx with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome and when I started taking anti-histamines my symptoms disappeared. (Angry mast cells in my bladder!). Im convinced many MCAS patients suffer from malabsorption and missing nutrients. I now follow a Carnivore diet and take B1 and selenium.

This vid solved my bladder problems, for the most part. . . Started on B1, and I no longer get up in the middle of the night. Wow! Not age related, just a B1 deficiency!
Very very informative video with great explanation. Thanks a million Doc!!! I have stopped carbs to 0% following your videos. I had frequent urination at night and had to get off from sleep. Now it's all gone. You are the saviour of mankind sir!!!
I stopped eating and drinking and now I am dead. It's a miracle, thanks 'Not a Doctor.' Greb every penny you can before pissing off, It's the dumb American way.
Thank you Dr. Berg for your informative videos. According to the late Edgar Cayce who was the Father of Holistic Medicine, he advised riding a bicycle regularly to help prevent bladder leakage. Also with regards to the bladder, I know a woman who had six children and never had bladder leakage. And guess what? After having her first child, part of her exercise routine was lying on the floor or bed with her legs up like she was peddling a bicycle. Years later, she also bought a stationary bike and used that while she was watching T.V., etc. She never had bladder leakage her entire life - she's passed on - and could never understand why other people ended up with it. I wish she were here so I could tell her that she was doing what the late Edgar Cayce recommended! So riding a bike and using your suggestions with consistency, I'm sure will prevent and/or resolve bladder leakage.
Thank you . Most interesting and so informative especially the B1 and massage. Often I go before I go out and not long after need to go again. I don't eat many carbs and generally healthy for a woman in her 60s.
Last year almost every month I would have urinary tract infection. Doctor advised me to do pelvic floor exercises to get over the issue. I started doing it sincerely and thankfully I ultimately got rid of the menace. I'm also doing double voiding as advised by the doctor to overcome the problem of urine retention issue. I daily thank my doctor for guiding me on this terrible issue.
ooo yesssss....here we re gathered around TRUTH and light and a way unto health and more...thank you Dr. for been here...sustaining us humnas in these vulnerable times🙌🤍✨👑 eternal blessings of eternal LOVE
My momma, the sweetest woman ever, was an RN her entire working life. She has such a great memory that she didn't take notes when making rounds. She had bladder control problems and ended up taking the widely advertised bladder medication. It cost her that wonderful memory and she stated a steady decline in mental function. B it led to her death I so wish that this information has been available to me back then. Thank you so very much. The good that you do by not feeding at the trough of big pharma is such a gift to those of us without medical degrees. God bless you
Cwavt18849 I am so sorry to read about your mothers experience. That decline to dementia caused by incontinence meds has been known for many years by the scientific community and yet those drugs are still prescribed. It's indescribable immorality, and I proffer that is one of the causes of the very high incidence of dementia in our society. Thanks for disclosing your mothers situation, people's awareness about the toxicity of those meds needs to be heightened.
Doctor berg, I had tried everything, even buying a product for pelvic exercises, to cut a long story short, I threw all caution to the wind watched Dr bergs you tube video, bought some vitamin b, and then fasted for 36hours. All I can say is I haven't looked back since, and my bladder problems are nearly non existent. I am going to keep on fasting intermittently Thank you Dr berg, for being the best informative you tube channel. ❤❤
Dr. Berg has information that CHANGES LIVES! THANK YOU SO MUCH😊 And i really appreciate the helpful bonus testaments & stories from those who share what they've experienced... Some of them absolutely MIND-BLOWING to read. And the coolest most awesome-est thing... Many of those comments are from people in their 50s, 60s, 70s, & up... Speaking POSITIVE about their health... I LOVE IT
Thank you Dr Berg. I'm so glad you're here. I moved to the deep mtns in Pacific NW. I'm hours away from a Dr, at least one I trust. You're like my family here. I'm coming back to my beautiful South Eastern state in the early fall. Bless you for all your work to help ppl. You have certainly helped me.
4:22 😮 I'm pre-diaberic, it's incredible the connection between this and the bladder issues and energy management in the brain. So will start B1 intake asap. Thanks Dr Berg.❤👍🏼
I also found that cutting out foods containing Metabisulfite and similar sulfur preservatives made a huge difference. Neuropathy and leg cramps gone, too!
THANK YOU Dr. Berg, for bringing up this topic who happens to be a nuisance as many people suffers about in silence since they are embarrass to talk about it. I do have incontinence and it is very annoying. This is the video that I needed it. Your timing is perfect so I will do whatever you say. I am not diabetic at all, but I have Hypoglycemia. No heart diseases, no other dreadful diseases at all…..I am healthy except for the incontinence which I find it to be a total nuisance. I truly appreciate you talking about this problem. 👍🙌
Once again much value and life changing benefits. Dr. Berg should have his own tv show. There is so much bs on Tv these days. It would be very beneficial to have the entire family watch a Dr Berg tv show
Thank you so much for this valuable information. I’ve been suffering for so long with constant burning pain and frequent urination throughout the day and also at night. I have to get up frequently during the night to go to the bathroom. As a result I’m exhausted and nothing seems to relieve the pain in my bladder.
Been in healthcare 30+ years and Dr Berg has put the faith and morals back in my way of thinking..thank you for caring about what you do

b1 is thiamine not benfotimine
Both are B1, different forms@@-AnyWho-
B1 also corrects anxiety, panic attacks, nightmares, racing heart, dizziness, bouts of hypertension, low energy, foggy brain, inability to focus, feeling extremely cold, adrenal exhaustion, feeling “not like myself” and other seemingly unrelated symptoms. All due to too many carbs in my case (I fell off Keto) and all corrected with large amounts of B1. Now back on keto and feeling back to normal
What is large amounts? :) Thanks

What is T1 diabetic
I had type 2 diabetes and spent time in the hospital back in June. They wanted to give me insulin if my blood sugar was more than 72, so I saw the food service offered cinnamon & ordered some. I drank 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon (it was ceylon cinnamon, much milder) 3 times throughout a 24 hr period, including around midnight because they would do a finger stick very early. The only time my sugar was higher was one morning when I went to sleep early & didn't drink anything with cinnamon in it for over 12 hours, but even then it was only 80! They were going to give me a shot but I told them to wait and test again later, I drank a cup of decaf tea w/cinnamon & my breakfast. Later my test came out under 72! I've lost weight & my last blood draw in Oct. at my regular Dr. had my A1C at 5.9. He said technically I was no longer diabetic! I'm still trying to lose weight but I've dropped 35 lbs since last January. I'm still using cinnamon with my meals & will continue because it slows down the absorption of sugar and reduces the insulin spikes What I found is most medical staff, especially doctors gave me dirty looks when I said the cinnamon works (they even started testing my blood sugar 5 times a day, quite excessive, if you ask me) but it was always low except for that one time. Too many medical professionals are stuck in the politics of pharmecuiticals or making kick backs with free samples to want to let go of keeping people on pharmecuiticals!😢
Keep drinking that cinnamon water and you'll dry out your system.
The “medical”/pharmaceutical cartel makes me cringe. Good for you. It irritated them that you dealt with it in non drug way 😂
The average diabetic brings over 750,000 each to the Medical Industry, mostly due to the fact the synthetic-chemical based meds (incl the fillers & carriers) severely damage the kidneys over time, hence there now being a Dialysis Center in every other shopping center after Nixon signed a bill aaying the government would pay for it (back when there were only 9,000 people nationwide needing it). 70% of diabetics end up on dialysis, unless something else bumps them off first.
So there is zero incentive for our for-profit Medical System to cure diabetes, which is mostly a toxin-excreting HHV-4 variant viral infection of the liver or pancreas. Everyone carries HHV-4 semi-dormantly nowadays, with no 2 people having the EXACT same symptoms since their diet, viral substrain combinations, natural immune system strength, and toxin exposure all differ.
Cure is the same: 'Clean' low fat super-nutrition, with plenty of cancer-preventing colorful phytonutrients, 30+ trace minerals, plus sea, fermented, and raw vegetables ( thus active enzymes, phytonutrients, & iodine, etc.), all of which are lacking in the Western diet.
Fenugreek seeds works as well.. soak a spoon overnight.. drink the water in the morning, let the seeds sprout for a day and chew them or use them in food or salad
That’s a great remedy, and well-documented.
Bladder issues are SO debilitating. I used to walk for many hours every day but since I started having problems can not stray far from a loo! Thank you, Dr Berg - things are now back to normal since I followed your advice. So grateful.
Great 👍 thank you so much for sharing ❤
You mean I'm not alone?

You are my new doctor. I have not seen a doctor in years as I no longer trust them. God bless you.
Me too, I just go to get yearly blood work.
Imagine my surprise when I just saw this. For years if I need to urinate and don’t immediately go I will feel like urinating every minute and each time just a little comes out. I have googled this many times but never found an answer that explains what is happening. I’ve also asked friends and they all say they dont experience this. For years I believed there’s no hope. I haven’t been to the hospital concerning this because no one seems to know what I’m talking about. You are the first person who has explained exactly what I’m feeling. Thank you for now showing me that there is a way around this and the cause behind it. Thank you truly.

As far as I'm concerned this man, whether he knows it or not is doing God's work. Thank you Eric. So much. From an ex-psych professional.
I agree!
Dr. Berg, I am a 66 year old pre-diabetic. To say that I frequently urinate is an understatement! I also have severe COPD. After watching one of your informative RUclips videos, I came to the conclusion that I may have a severe B1 deficiency, so I started taking it every morning. It's been about two weeks now and the heaviness and numbness that I have felt on the left side of my left calf (for nearly ten years!) is waning, and I don't have to urinate as often as I did two weeks ago!
Here's something else I noticed: I use Flonase spray frequently to unclog my nose, which is constantly stuffed. Lately, I noticed that I don't have to use the spray as often because I seem to be breathing much easier. I also have more energy during the day, and when I wake up in the morning the chapped skin that frequently formed on the left side of my mouth is gone! (Due to the COPD, I sleep with the left side of my mouth open and that's what has been causing the chapped skin to form on the side of my mouth every morning.) Thanks to watching your videos, I am feeling much better! Please keep posting them! You are truly a credit to the medical profession!
You take benfotiamine or just thiamine?
Consider researching NAC = N-Acetyl Cysteine for COPD
Great Doc !
I take benfotiamine.
If you're pre diabetic you would be taking metaformin. Exercise has been the MOST effective way to control pre-diabetes. Do not depend on diet alone. Go to a gym, and do higher intensity exercise, as high as you are comfortable with.
If you don't know, most grain based foods are fortified with vitamin B groups. Look in the nutritional fact panel if you want to know what I mean. If you eat a lot of junk foods, you do not have any vitamin B deficiency. Fact is most food in developed countries are often fortified or enriched, but if you really want to make sure you are getting vitamins naturally, eat whole grains. Unless you live in a third world country you shouldn't be having much vitamin deficiency.
However in my case pre diabetes doesn't adequately explain my urination problem, because my A1C is already out of prediabetes range, but the problem persist. In fact for me my experience has been more of my body seemingly needs less water than normal. Means I pee a lot, pee comes out crystal clear, and I'm not thirsty nor have I drank a lot of water or liquids. Not sure what is the problem. Problem is worse in the winter when I don't sweat a whole lot.
Suffering from this very high frequent urination with No sugar, No issues. Every test was normal. I think you got it and saved me. Cannot thank you enough.
B1 you didn't mention.
Thank u Dr
U are just great
God's gift for those who can't afford meds

I damaged my whole bladder system for the 8 months I was coughing hard and incessantly due to an undiagnosed histamine intolerance. Now I'm healing my gut and avoiding histamine containing or producing food, and this will help me undo the bladder damage, too. Thank you!
?
How did you finally figure out you had a histamine intolerance?
You could also reduce your histamines by taking a European supplement called Toxaprevent. The DAO enzyme is hit or miss with me. I also reordered Benifuuki green tea that's good for that.
@@beedebawng2556 Well, if you're having trouble sleeping, get sinus headaches, muscle tightness, itching of the skin, overreaction to mosquito bites. There are different symptoms.
@@QUINTUSMAXIMUS I've never heard of that green tea where do you get ❓❓
I started B1 and apple cider vinegar a week ago. I noticed a difference within 24 hours. I have more energy and don't feel like taking a nap every afternoon on my desk. Still want to change my jobs but that is a problem no doctor can fix. ;)
My fathers dog had an operation and couldn’t urinate when she was home. He took her to the vets but as she jumped from the car onto the curb her bladder burst and she died at the vets. I rang the chemist but it was closed to get her b1 . I still have trauma for that dear dog and her suffering. The vets should have made sure she was able to use the toilet before releasing her to go home.
after a prostate op, the damn clinic let me go home without making sure my bladder was working; later the night after I had to go to the emergency room for a catheter. Damn them all. I want AI doctors.
Both of my parents have Bladder problem. It saddens and worries me. Thank you Dr.Berg.

Don’t hesitate to get them to try this! My mom and my aunt suffered with frequent urination for many years and it kept giving them both painful uti that they could only use antibiotics for.

I had bladder polyps... "pre-carncerous," whatever that means. They were due to my lifestyle as a working musician, inhaling second hand smoke, day after day, week, month, year.... It is a brutal life... it doesn't surprise me that so many musicians die so young.
I do have a neuropathy, and am mega- dosing B1... I've also given up performing for a living... I became a welder, mechanic, and cat dad.
Also eliminate all GMOs from your diet they will cause polyps. I've had them removed from my sinuses and my gallbladder. I believe it was due to my depression during a bad marriage and consuming Mass amounts of nacho cheese Doritos. I am now a hundred percent organic
Great stuff. Just beware when welding though...huge cancer risk as well.
Hopefully properly ventilated/masked...good luck man!
What do you consider ‘mega dosing’?

I thought I was having bladder infection/irritation but it was from DIM supplementing. Also, eating raw pumpkin seeds daily has helped me with urgency. (About to celebrate 3 years keto in April!!☺) Thank you Dr B!!
YES!!! I gave our dog pumpkin seed extract for her incontinence and it totally took care of her leaking. If we ran out there'd be tell-tale drips on the floor. No one can say a dog has psychosomatic responses so I'm thoroughly convinced it has to really work.
What's DIM supplement?
@@rymlm9038 It stands for a long chemical compound, and is used in Dr. Berg's (& other brands') supplement for balancing one's estrogen (men, too) in the body. I'd like to know how it caused the problem for the OP, hillarybanks.
I don’t think it was from the dimm. Coincidental. I had bladder issue before dimm, while taking dimm, and not taking it again.
@@Primal391 it is dim. It makes my urine dark and pass slower and more frequently. When I stop my dim, those side effects stop very quickly but my hot flashes keep me up at night. I was very worried until i saw a good video on dim explaining these things.

Hi Dr Berg. I’m a 16 year old female. Last summer I became anorexic. Tofu and spinach were the only foods I didn’t fear to eat, and so I ate a lot of soy for about a month. I lost a lot of weight, the condition of my skin was terrible and I experienced a lot of stress. In autumn my mental health went back to normal. I got really concerned about my period loss. I even started eating meat again after years of vegetarianism. I’ve been feeling very good lately, I even grew a little bit taller, and look a lot healthier, but unfortunately there’s still no sign of my period 😞. I’ve gotten it once in January, but then it just disappeared again. I don’t stress a lot nowadays, but sometimes I start panicking due to my period not coming back. What should I do?
Edit: Thank You all for the tips and heartwarming words♥️

Hi Vivian, have you checked with a doctor first? Also check for videos of vegans who lost their period and how long did it took to heal. I think the average is 6 months to a year.
What's your BMI? What is your exact diet and daily calories today?
@@larryc1616 My BMI had always been quite low, even when everything was okay and I had my period regularly. The most I weighted in my life was around 43kg (I’m 164/5’4)
Yes, good question because your periods are a reflection of your fertility. I would re-evaluate your foods and make sure what I recommend in my books and videos - making sure the foods are nutrients, like seafood, shellfish for example. You need the trace minerals - high quality eggs are also essential and you may also need more vitamin D3 - like 10,000 IUs.
This video was really helpful.

The nutritional guru of mid-2000's was Adele Davis. She highlighted B-vitamin deficiencies that resulted from processed grains.
I’ve been experiencing bladder urgency and I decided to cut out coffee. The problem went away. Now I drink herbal tea. After 3 months I decided to have a cup of coffee and I was soon doing the “potty dance”. Your info is spot on Dr and I thank you so much. I’m going to buy some B1 and I already do the apple cider vinegar (per your suggestion). Thanks for all the great info Dr! You are a gem!
Even a tiny cup of organic coffee does that or is it a huge cup of the standard coffee?
I have the same problem. When I drink coffee I have the problem but I can drink green tea and no issues.
@@feelnrite Even from organic coffee?
@@helenevion5948 Never had organic.
Its the caffeine. I drink decaf and herb tea. Coffee has other good things, e.g. kidney function, so I keep drinking it. Caffeine irritates the bladder, so my specialist told me. When I cut caffeine out I stopped having urgency.
I listened to you and have been taking Benfotiamine and B-1 together for 3 weeks now and absolutely NO CHANGE with urinary problems!
Same boat, although I take the R type alpha lipoic acid with it. It's been 9 weeks and no change. However, if you have real nerve damage (autonomic neuropathy), I've been told by a neurologist that fixing nerve damage through diet & supplements is going to take a long time to notice anything. 3-6 months should be the timeframe to look for the slightest change. It could take a couple years to to correct the problem. And... It might not correct at all. But don't give up hope!

Over the past 6-9 months I began taking B1 in order to help with my mood and lower stress. The very first time I took a B1 just before bed, I slept straight through the night - first time in literally years! This healthy trend has continued. While I do not take B1 every night, I do take one B1 tab maybe 2-3 times per week, usually after the evening meal or just before bed. I'm now able to sleep through the night almost every night now, and I have much more energy during the day, with few mid afternoon slumps. I cannot thank you enough for again giving us great information that works!
That’s awesome 👏 thanks for sharing ❤❤❤
Love the opening of this video. I am a retired ICU nurse. My daughter is currently an ICU nurse. We had a conversation recently about why do you need to be an ICU nurse to get decent health information today. So much garbage out there, and the healthcare system is broken. It is all based on here is a pill, go away.
True 😢
Dr. Berg; you have done so much to enhance our health in many ways. I have one tiny beef with physicians and others who begin to explain technical matters, mention anatomical or biochemical terms, and say, "you do not need to know that." That gives me pause because it is condescending. Just as you can understand technical terms, so can we. Therefore, I encourage you to use the technical terminology, unapologetically, and educate us; then, move on. If you can learn "big words," so can we. Thanks again for your great service.
Great info. After years of struggling with bladder issues, I was told that I might have interstitial cystitis. When I did my research on this and the foods that irritate the bladder I found that 100% of the foods that I should avoid with IC are the same foods that have been messing up my digestive system. Would love a video on IC.
I had interstitial cystitis after bladder cancer which I had cured with homeopathy. My osteopath recommended marshmallow route 30 drops, three times a day for six months and it completely healed my bladder. It also repairs your stomach lining. Worked for me. Good luck. Namaste 🙏💜🙏
I forgot to say that I was told that interstitial cystitis is caused by taking antibiotics when you do not have an infection which is often the case with drug dealing doctors!
Alkaline diet, loads of greens but not ones high in oxalates, aloe vera, pumpkin seed oil and chlorophyll worked for me
@DESERT BLUES PLAYLIST That's grea! So it sounds like alkalizing the diet helps an overactive bladder? I wonder why pumpkinseed oil?
My sister in law had IC. She hurt while going to the bathroom for several years. The doctors methods gave her no relief. I found out about it at a party. Told her to try two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar before every meal. She went home that night and tried it. She had never called me in the 30 some years I have known her. She called me at 5 am lol and told me she peed for the first time in years without pain. That was maybe 10 years ago. She has since quit taking and the problem seems to be resolved. It was just a hunch on my part but it apparently worked for her.

I have this problem since a few months now. I was worried and went for a check up of my prostate. I tried all vitamins already. But it seems Thiamin is the missing link for me. I observed in this video almost all symptoms I have. And I observe although I have Vit B1 it's only Benfotamine I have in my closet and I never eat pork nor rice or anything that's on the list of recommended food for Thiamin. I will start eating lentils tomorrow! I am 100% confident this is going to work. Thanks again Dr Bergh! You are a invaluable resource for me.
Hey please update if it works. And exactly what you did. Thanks
Carbs digestion also require much more b1 than meats or leafy vegetables. He goes over this in a few videos. ❤
Have had bladder problems for ages. Have to try this. Thanks for the video!
Wrongly they call you Eric Berg... you're Angel Berg...helping and healing millions of people. You're absolutely wonderful.
True.
Oh for gawd's sake, who pays you to write such drivel?
The people who get healed by him. Also the people who wants to think and listen out of the conventional system. @@DDumbrille
I thank God for coming across this video! And thank you for sharing it!! I had this type of issues at nite,went to my personal doctor and he never mentioned to me the ..B1.vitamine at all! It has been 2weeks now since I'm taking them, 80% of my issues are gone!! Thank you so much again!! God bless you always 🙏
I prefer warm water with lemon juice every morning and nite grapefruit fresh vegetables to regulate high sugar level I will also try this B1 thank you
Very important for me is to know you are authentic ! Thank you very much for all! ❤ I really benefit from your presentations. May God bless your great work.
I'm 73 with fibromyalgia. I have urine incompetence. The fibromyalgia came on at age 30. A wise Dr. put me on vitamin B shots which helped immensely. I would become so exhausted before each weekly shot that my mind wouldn't work. Total exhaustion. After divorcing the complete care of my four children fell upon me. I was able to go back to college and later work as a teacher though ended up hospitalized which extreme allergic reactions or unable to walk. It took 17 years to diagnose. The shots literally saved my family life. Teaching school took me to another state where shots were not given and it was rough. I recommend shots for those that don't do well on pills or drops. Fifteen minutes after a shot I could think clearly again and my strength returned. I'm a near invalid now, disabled as weekly shots are a no go in this state.
I used to get vitamin B shots and then switched to a methylated B supplement. There are also liposomal methylated Vitamin B supplements options too. I found them to be just as effective. Give them a try!
hi Linda
not sure if I urged you to get tested for lyme at igenex Labs in California.
Most sensitive tests . Yes expensive but worth it for getting a real diagnosis and then treatment.
Please try to do that with a lyme literate physician.
Please try everything asap.
Best,
Joy
( I had it then got treated after diagnosis!)

@@joyshuman2727 How do you know she’s in CA?
@@tabuslucky From what I’ve seen, you hit the bullseye!🎯
Great advice!
Thank you Dr. Berg. I am type 2 diabetic and have these issues which started now I’m in my 60’s! I will be following your recommendations! 👍
I’m in same boat and same age! I’ll be following also!😊
I took d-mannose for a bladder infection and not only did it get rid of the bladder infection ( symptoms were gone in within 6 hours) but since of urgency that i had talked to my integrative doctor over past year also went away!!
Did it affect your blood sugar? Spike it? It stops irritants from adhering to the urinary walls. My mom takes it, but I was wondering how it affects blood sugar as it is a type of sugar.
Thank you Dr. Berg. May many blessings continue to come to you. No one is talking about this problem 🎉
Mr. Eric, Thank you for all of the healthy Information you give!
Your work is well appreciated, thank you

De. Berg, you are an Angel!!! How many health issues we have in our family and thanks to your programs and your dedication we are all getting and feeling better. I'm going through menopause and I have the worst scenery, including frequent urination but im reducing the carbs and taking the vitamins D and B1,etc, following always your advises and I'm feeling much better now..Thank you!! It's amazing what you are doing for all of us in this difficult times we are living. Thank you so much may God protect you and bless you and your family!!!
Great that you are finding out 🎉🎉🎉thanks for sharing ❤
✨ Dear Dr. Berg ✨
Many thanks to you and your staff for these life supporting, thought provoking, well explained videos. Everyone you've helped will never be the same, including me.
I second that!♥️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Yes , absolutely!
I have overactive bladder and already take B1, so I ordered Benfotiamine. Really hope it helps because I’m tired of going to the bathroom 15 times a day.
Is it helping?
My record is 38
THANK YOU FOR THIS! I used to get up 10 times a night and sometimes not even urinating much. Ever since I started taking Benfotiamine, like your video says to, it STOPPED completely! You're genius, and you care about people's health. That's what I love about you. You're my go-to doctor for any questions.
How much did u took?
@@pedroribeiro7334 one
Omg. I’m getting that stuff today !
Are uh a diabetic patient
me too 14 yrs night time urination. No urine left yet have to go to toilet. Not diabetic. Started B1 and now just once every night.
This is so true. Dr. Berg you are a life saver, literally. Best doctor for life. Will never forget you. God bless.
Happy you found it useful! Be well!

Did taking vitamin B1 help your frequent urination? I'm having a problem at the moment.
This man is a god send God bless this man please keep him alive 💜💜
Thank you! I am on medication for overactive bladder for over a year now. I was told there was no cure for it and i would be on medicine unless i got botox shots in my bladder every 6 months. I will get getting B1 supplement ASAP!
Excellent. Hope it works well for you. Take care.
UPDATE! I have been taking the B1 and Benfotamine supplements for the last 2 months and i definitely see the difference. Thank you! Question… do i have to continue to take these supplements daily or do i stop since im no longer deficient in B1???
@@trich7154how are you nw are uh properly fyn
Thiamine supplement has stopped quite a few issues I was experiencing, including frequent and urgent urination. Thank you!
Ten years ago I began experiencing urinary pain and frequency.
I was eventually Dx with Interstitial Cystitis despite not finding a Hunner's Ulcer in my bladder.
I was eventually Dx with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome and when I started taking anti-histamines my symptoms disappeared. (Angry mast cells in my bladder!).
Im convinced many MCAS patients suffer from malabsorption and missing nutrients.
I now follow a Carnivore diet and take B1 and selenium.
Mast cell activation is a symptom of an irritant. Like parasites, stones, infection, etc.. Wonder what was bugging your bladder. Glad it resolved
If you want professional medical health information there is only one Dr. Berg. Short precise informative information with a twist of humour every now & again . 😊😊😊
Thank you very much. Appreciate your comment.
@@Drberg question please (it’s kinda embarrassing but I’m desperate for information) could you please do a video on hormones and perimenopause please❓(it’s a living NIGHTMARE 😱) also since being in perimenopause I’ve noticed a difference in my bladder 👈🏻😱⚠️ SERIOUSLY what is happening to my body it’s like I’m falling apart like I’m 80 years old 😱
@@Drberg 👋🏻 since you’re the best in the world 🌍🤍 could you do a video on HORMONES effecting/flaring up the HEART ♥️ (please 🙏🏻)
Sending this to my sister, who suffers from all of these symptoms Dr. Berg. Thank you for expertise and advice! ❤
Thanks for sharing. Hope the information here will help her.
@@Drberg Will this help with a patient w/bladder cancer?
Just got a new client & he has bladder cancer for some yrs now, but is still holding his own, so to speak.
He gets some kind of treatments he loathes that last several weeks & he has to hold it in for 2 hrs.
He is in beginning stages of dementia & also macular degeneration.
He’s otherwise a young 86, w/a great sense of humor! Still drives & likes his independence, but his daughter is putting her foot down.
If B1, or a high, or liquid dose of B will help, I’ll be happy to tell him to give it a shot!👍
TY in advance for reply.
Maybe I should put this as a new thread? Want to make sure you see it.
I’m a new, subscribed fan!
Thanks again!
please watch the documentary sunder sour skin. She may have lyme disease but easily misdiagnosed. have her send her blood to Igenex labs CA. They have the sensitive tests. Call them. They will tell you what to do
to send the test tube of blood to them.
Good luck!!! please please check this out.
No amount of vitamins can kill this bacteria.
I had it. My sister and brother both died from it!!!
sorry Under Our Skin is the documentary
@@sonneversets3530 Yes, a high amount of b1 will help. But I suggest you check each video Dr Berg made on each of the situation you mention here. ❤
This vid solved my bladder problems, for the most part. . . Started on B1, and I no longer get up in the middle of the night. Wow! Not age related, just a B1 deficiency!
Very very informative video with great explanation. Thanks a million Doc!!!
I have stopped carbs to 0% following your videos. I had frequent urination at night and had to get off from sleep. Now it's all gone. You are the saviour of mankind sir!!!
God bless you
Awesome 🎉🎉🎉thanks for sharing ❤
I stopped eating and drinking and now I am dead. It's a miracle, thanks 'Not a Doctor.' Greb every penny you can before pissing off, It's the dumb American way.
How it has gone
@@liaquattalash3262 cut the carbs!
Thank you Dr. Berg for your informative videos. According to the late Edgar Cayce who was the Father of Holistic Medicine, he advised riding a bicycle regularly to help prevent bladder leakage. Also with regards to the bladder, I know a woman who had six children and never had bladder leakage. And guess what? After having her first child, part of her exercise routine was lying on the floor or bed with her legs up like she was peddling a bicycle. Years later, she also bought a stationary bike and used that while she was watching T.V., etc. She never had bladder leakage her entire life - she's passed on - and could never understand why other people ended up with it. I wish she were here so I could tell her that she was doing what the late Edgar Cayce recommended! So riding a bike and using your suggestions with consistency, I'm sure will prevent and/or resolve bladder leakage.
Edgar was a charlatan
My mum suffers this bladder issues n motion incontinence after her back surgery. This video is helpful. Thanks doc berg.
Thank you . Most interesting and so informative especially the B1 and massage. Often I go before I go out and not long after need to go again. I don't eat many carbs and generally healthy for a woman in her 60s.

Last year almost every month I would have urinary tract infection.
Doctor advised me to do pelvic floor exercises to get over the issue.
I started doing it sincerely and thankfully I ultimately got rid of the menace.
I'm also doing double voiding as advised by the doctor to overcome the problem of urine retention issue.
I daily thank my doctor for guiding me on this terrible issue.
Hi, what does double voiding mean?
I'm in same situation now with the UTI

ooo yesssss....here we re gathered around TRUTH and light and a way unto health and more...thank you Dr. for been here...sustaining us humnas in these vulnerable times🙌🤍✨👑 eternal blessings of eternal LOVE
My momma, the sweetest woman ever, was an RN her entire working life. She has such a great memory that she didn't take notes when making rounds.
She had bladder control problems and ended up taking the widely advertised bladder medication.
It cost her that wonderful memory and she stated a steady decline in mental function. B it led to her death
I so wish that this information has been available to me back then.
Thank you so very much. The good that you do by not feeding at the trough of big pharma is such a gift to those of us without medical degrees. God bless you
Cwavt18849 I am so sorry to read about your mothers experience. That decline to dementia caused by incontinence meds has been known for many years by the scientific community and yet those drugs are still prescribed. It's indescribable immorality, and I proffer that is one of the causes of the very high incidence of dementia in our society. Thanks for disclosing your mothers situation, people's awareness about the toxicity of those meds needs to be heightened.
Thank you for this. I've suffered from this problem for years and years. I'll try increasing my B1 intake from now on.
Very glad to be of help.
Some of his earlier videos on the bladder may help too. ❤
Doctor berg, I had tried everything, even buying a product for pelvic exercises, to cut a long story short, I threw all caution to the wind watched Dr bergs you tube video, bought some vitamin b, and then fasted for 36hours. All I can say is I haven't looked back since, and my bladder problems are nearly non existent. I am going to keep on fasting intermittently Thank you Dr berg, for being the best informative you tube channel. ❤❤
Wow, that is great! Pls tell me which for of Vit B1 did you take?
Dr. Berg has information that CHANGES LIVES! THANK YOU SO MUCH😊 And i really appreciate the helpful bonus testaments & stories from those who share what they've experienced... Some of them absolutely MIND-BLOWING to read. And the coolest most awesome-est thing... Many of those comments are from people in their 50s, 60s, 70s, & up... Speaking POSITIVE about their health... I LOVE IT
Yes! 🎉🎉🎉the world 🌎 is getting better despite appearances.
Thank you Dr Berg. I'm so glad you're here. I moved to the deep mtns in Pacific NW. I'm hours away from a Dr, at least one I trust. You're like my family here. I'm coming back to my beautiful South Eastern state in the early fall. Bless you for all your work to help ppl. You have certainly helped me.
4:22 😮 I'm pre-diaberic, it's incredible the connection between this and the bladder issues and energy management in the brain. So will start B1 intake asap.
Thanks Dr Berg.❤👍🏼
Good morning. Did you start taking B1? And did it help with your bladder? I'm also prediabetic.
Take cinnamon capsules prevent diabetes
@Curtis_George since he aint replying, did you start taking it?
I also found that cutting out foods containing Metabisulfite and similar sulfur preservatives made a huge difference. Neuropathy and leg cramps gone, too!
THANK YOU Dr. Berg, for bringing up this topic who happens to be a nuisance as many people suffers about in silence since they are embarrass to talk about it. I do have incontinence and it is very annoying. This is the video that I needed it. Your timing is perfect so I will do whatever you say. I am not diabetic at all, but I have Hypoglycemia. No heart diseases, no other dreadful diseases at all…..I am healthy except for the incontinence which I find it to be a total nuisance. I truly appreciate you talking about this problem. 👍🙌
Thank you Dr Berg I'm 81 very young and strong but the past yr I'm having this problem.
Once again much value and life changing benefits. Dr. Berg should have his own
tv show. There is so much
bs on Tv these days. It would be very beneficial to
have the entire family watch a Dr Berg tv show

Why can't they just watch this?
Thank you so much for this valuable information. I’ve been suffering for so long with constant burning pain and frequent urination throughout the day and also at night. I have to get up frequently during the night to go to the bathroom. As a result I’m exhausted and nothing seems to relieve the pain in my bladder.
That's common with chronic UTI. Go over to Uqora dot com for what you need to do
Anthea Redmond sounds like interstitial Cystitis
Sounds like cystitis. I took D-mannose to wash it out plus probiotics for the bladder.
He’s made a few videos to help with different bladder issues. ❤
this vitamin works in high dose with magnesium. try it. It solved 14yrs of night time urine issues.
My favorites Dr Eric Berg and Barbara O'neill. Thank you both for giving us your knowledge .
