Since ditching sugar and carbs 5 weeks ago my body's inflammation has declined so much, I can suddenly breathe through both sides of my nose. This is after going through a septoplasty and two turbinate reduction surgeries about 10 years ago that only improved my breathing briefly. I'm amazed.
I have a severe lack of taste and smell you are my go to Doctor so I will definitely try your suggestion and see if I will have a testimony of thanking God for leading me to you 🙏🏼
As a type 1 diabetic I have not beeb able to smell or taste for years. When I started keto and eating foods with zinc I can now breathe, smell and taste foods.
Thank you! You answer questions that have been on our minds for years! We're so accustomed to the problem, we rarely, if ever even realize it...especially the ability to smell odors. Thanks my friend!
Dr. Berg, I am a black belt (since 1972) but I had been loosing mobility in arms and legs, I was gaining weight I could not exercise off of me. I found your videos and I started Intermittent fasting about 8 months ago. It has been an incredible change in my life, not just in my body. Thank you Doc. the world needs more people like you.
I've had loss of smell for the last 4 years caused by nasal polyps. I've recently (the last month) started intermittent fasting, and my smell has started to return, which is life changing for me. Thank you for this video, it explains everything so well 😊
We were told to take more zinc for loss of taste and smell. We actually never lost either when we had covid, and my husband is prediabetic. We took extra zinc the entire time.
You know, when I was taking a lot of zinc I more or less lost my sense of taste. Ran out, didn't buy more and the metallic taste in my mouth (sort of like galvanized garbage can) went away. Take it with more caution these days.
It has been over 12 yrs since I 100% lost my sense of smell and therefore taste! I have done all that you recommend in this video and nothing changed! I imagine it will work for alot of people, just not me!
My mum hasn’t been able to smell anything for 20 years, she had polyps, and even though they have gone, there’s still no smell. Thank you for your video. Love from England x
I have tried a number of techniques, none seem to work for me but I thought I'd share what worked for me. A spoonful of English mustard. Worked a treat. You want a good mouthful to point it makes your eyes water and sting back of the throat. You'll be amazed how quickly your taste returns after!
Regarding essential oils, basil & lemongrass help restore sense of smell. When we got covid, i was sense of smell-less for 1 day before it came back! Applying the oils back of earlobe & under the toes
I love how thorough your videos are and how you chart everything making it so easy to keep notes for future use 👍🏻 thank you for all you do for your audience !!
I have nasal polyps, which is why my sense of smell was impaired. But I did notice that being on ketosis brings back my sense of smell... not conpletely yet... but it is there now... this is a good video.
I've been following you for a couple of few years so far. I first found you when I was researching fatty liver disease. Learned how to do intermittent fasting from you. And learned what to do to cure the fatty liver disease. it took me a while. I no longer have fatty liver disease. No I'm working on getting rid of gall stones and trying to restore my sense of smell and taste that I lost decades ago
Yeah. You should do intermittenting fasting for your body to not work on all the food and nutritions but on recovering and cleaning your body from the inside.
I lost my sense of taste and smell many years ago. I'm adhering to a very strict OMAD/Keto/IF diet as Dr. Berg instructs. I often skip 1-2 days of eating due to lack of hunger. I do at least one 3 day fast every month. I may try the things that are suggested in this video. I'm guessing that the insulin nasal spray requires a prescription, so I'll definitely take a pass on that one. Not being able to taste or smell limits any craving, which is a win in my book! Thanks, Doc!
hi vickie i actually got the insulin from walmart for$25 its called novolin r. they didn't ask me for anything. they also have it at walgreens for $170

You know what? My husband has always been lactose intolerant, UNTIL he did keto, his mom forgot and made him his favorite ice cream from his childhood for his birthday. She is an ANGEL, so you know he ate that dish of ice cream and never said a word, I mean, she is 80 years old, we are in our 50’s. Shortly after eating we had to get on the road for our 2 hour drive home, and as soon as we got in the car he said “I’m really hoping we are not out in the middle of nowhere when my stomach ache kicks in!” Well, it never did, it’s been almost a year now and he can enjoy ice cream without worry now!

I started keto and zinc 3 years ago and havent been sick since then. Everyone around me caught covid and I actually wanted to catch it to develop immunity but I just cant get sick anymore. Of course no one believes this. My work just had an out break so bad everyone was wearing hazmat suits, gloves, boots, googles, face shields. I walk by in a tee shirt and they just stare at me in fear. I'm to the point now I dont really believe that virus are infectious as much as I think people are just unhealthy.
i have tried everything dr berg says in his videos , i dont eat carbs at all,,im a personal trainer for over 15 years, no sugar,,im on diet thats high in potassium B1 zinc and i do eat ACV all time still,,im muslim so we fast 30 days every year and for over 18 hours, and still i never got back my sense of smell,only sometimes when i really train hard i get back my sense of smell for couple of hours then back to normal,,i been like this for about 6 years now, im 38 years old, it has ruined my life,its stressing me alot, i met a doctor told me you have pulips need to be removed he made me do operation and wasted 7000 us dollars and i still never got back my sense of smell,,
third !!!! 🐱🐱🐱 how to fix insulin resistance: acv before sleep fasting avoid carbs and sugar potassium vitamin d vitamin b1 exercise thank you dr berg!!
Even though you won't see this; Please, Doctor Berg, when mentioning ACV, also include how it blocks calcium absorption and needs to have a 2 weeks off period between 2-3 weeks on periods, for one's calcium levels to be sufficient.
sounds crazy but my sense of smell was so good before i got covid it caused me anxiety.....6 mo after covid i still don't smell most bad things and wow ...i love it. What's funny is most of my taste is still in tact.
I hear that is a side effect of c19. Two family members suffered from this pre-c19. One in her 80s lost her sense of taste after surgery. The other lost his sense of smell after serving in the Korean war. Sadly, both have passed on. Best of health to you. ❤
The video misses the most important element: zinc I never knew I was not smelling anything around me until I had zinc. Especially, when I had lentil. I started smelling everything around me. Now i have my own zinc test which I go to my room that had a fire before, if I don't smell a thing, I know it's time to get some zinc ! Update: I guess I missed it as per the comments as I also didn't see it in the summary
@@pinkdarkrose hahaha I feel like Dr berg is my representative really. He is the only person I know who I can trust in my health. Also the community we have here is really helpful to identify some issues I never knew I had which can hopefully help me fix my long time issue I had for over 12 years
@@khairt1731 Yea Covid. November 18th I lost my taste and smell. The last couple weeks I've had progress tho. Sometimes I'll catch a whiff of smell but can't tell what it is
@@Beautybysabrina No not crazy. I've actually been doing a lot of fasting lately. Been about 20 hrs since my last meal. I dont eat pizza and hot cheetohs anymore. Lol
Big thanks to Dr Berg about an old video about zinc, which I have been taken it and getting great improvement to improve my smell. Thanks Dr Berg!! :))
My sense of smell decreased over 15 years ago. I knew I had a viral sinus infection but my sinuses seemed extremely dry but inflamed. After that I lost about 50% of my sense of smell. It's amazing how much I miss the depth of smell, like the leaves in the fall. I can only smell them slightly. The loss of smell is specific to certain things, other smells are fine like citrus. I'm a clinical educator and was still doing patient care 15 years ago. I could smell urine but not bowel movements. Doesn't seem like a bad thing to lose but in healthcare it all matters. I talked to another woman with the same exact problem and she told me she couldn't tell when her grandchildren's diapers needed to be changed.
Thank you for making this video. I have been suffering from Parosmia for 7 months now after having covid. I have been taking supplements and just recently started back on a ketogenic diet. I and going to incorporate your suggestions as I already know I'm insulin resistant. Thank you so much for this information!!
I am 4 years post-menopausal. I am around a lot of vaccinated people with my job, I started having a heavy period every two weeks, headaches, chest pressure for the past 3 months. Please do a video on what the Covid "Injected" are doing to others.
You think all your symptoms are caused by being around those with the vaccine? May I know why? I’m still on the fence as to whether or not I should get the vaccination.
Guess it was about a year ago Covid kicked my butt. Being diabetic-unvax delta should put me 6ft under. Completely gave up on smell ever returning. Must watch vid again with open mind to swallow digest this info. Someone must report this guy to Department of Defense! This guy is the "BOMB".
Actually the delta variant has a lower mortality rate then the original variant, look it up. You will have some natural antibodies now from having covid which is a plus!
You’re immune, or should be. I recently got some HCQ, just in case. My brother got horribly sick with covid 3 days after it arrived and I gave him some. He was completely symptom free in 24 hours. Not feeling better - it was like he was never sick.
What a coincidence, I just was thinking that my smell improved the last couple of days. I do keto for 4 years. But lately doing IF and take ACV with salts. Think the last one is the reason it improved, so probably allergies. I have always a bit of a stuffy nose (hope thats correct English :D )
Hmm… I always thought was my sinusitis that contributed to my loss of smell and taste because ever since I had a bad episode of sinus infection, I lost my sense of smell and never recuperated 100%. ☹️ Thank you for the new insight on loss of smell. 🙌
Same for me. I had a wicked sinus infection in 2018 and lost my smell completely. I've been getting some of it back but not fully. I get sad when I remember some of the smells I used to enjoy. 😕
Outstanding Dr. Berg!! Luckily I don‘t have any problems right now and nobody I know, yet. Crazy time, but this info could make a huge difference. I‘ve heard long-haulers are still suffering from loss of smell/taste, some over 1 year 😔
I’ve the opposite issue doc. I have an increased sense of smell called hyperosmia. It’s making my life miserable from the past few years and lately affecting my sleep and day to day routine as i smell my mother frying onions in the kitchen when i’m sleeping. She doesn’t listen to me and my mental health is a mess. Please doc you have to help me. I’ve searched the whole internet and found no cure. I don’t trust the drs enough to consult either since they have been misdiagnosing me with adhd for 10 years.
I eat a very low sugar diet, lots of fish, veggies, berries, etc. Been supplementing with zinc, D + K, vitamin C and NAC throughout the pandemic. Contracted Omicron and lost sense of smell immediately. My brother and his wife, both diabetics had it too and didn't lose their sense of smell. So, I think it can be hard to say why some people do and some don't. I will do olfactory training and hope it will help it return soon.
I lost my sense of smell and taste after covid in January. My daughter lost her smell, too but now she can't stand the smell of her favorite perfume. Me, it's hard to smell and a lot of times I have to put it right up to my nose to be able to actually smell it and then it's minimal. My taste buds are pretty much shot, but I will try this to see if it helps. Thanks for all the great information you share with us.
@@TheOnlyWayIsJesus My smelling ability is over the top now. It's weird because my sense of smell has gone the opposite and is very sensitive now. I had covid again after that first time and that is when both my daughter and myself noticed the sensitivity to smells took over. No idea if it was related or not, just noting the same experience and she and I are now in different states when we got it a 2nd time.
@@praeeo That's great.. how long did you go without smell and taste? It's been 5 weeks for me, and I'm pretty much just as you described in your original comment.
What about reducing their sugar /carbs foods and increasing their healthy fats consumption? Like DHA, ect. With cans of cod liver in big salads? Or at least the supplements if they can't stand the salads. Provide enough electrolytes, especially potassium and salt and nutritional yeast, vitamin D3&k2, ect. So they don't crave sweet foods. Actually Dr Berg has videos on what to feed children.
Haven't had sense of smell or taste for 20 years since polyps removal. Where do I get the insulin nose spray. Already taking 50 MG of zinc, 5000mg d3 and vitamin c. Thank you Dr Berg.
Huh. Very interesting. I always appreciate my sense of smell. I was able to drink ACV straight when I lost my sense of smell and taste. I stopped eating because I couldn't smell or taste anything. A five day fast was all it took.
@Alfred Weber same here. I haven’t had covid but I’ve temporarily lost my taste/smell after respiratory infections. I would eat and eat and eat trying to taste something.
After brain surgery in November 2020, where they removed one brain tumour, I'm likely to have very little smell for the rest of my life. He told me he had to lift one of the nerves a little bit during the surgery and that probably damage that nerve with scars following. I still think that the other one is intact but I still can't smell things very much. Or taste. That really sucks. But now when I've started on Keto I will also start taking zink. Hmm... I wonder if I can spray some Colloidal zinc directly in to the nose 🤔
@@charlottebetulander5414 Yeah, there was an FDA warning about Zicam affecting some people that way. That said, I used colloidal zinc in my nose a few times years ago and I can still smell okay.
@@robertrinehuls9099 I don't know what a FDA warning or Zicam is, but I get the point. I will try garlic water with some salt in the nose for a couple of weeks instead. 👍
Have you checked Dr Berg's videos on the nervous system? Also his videos on B1 as benfotiamine and on electrolytes, especially potassium. And on nutritional yeast.
Okay, bought a leather chair 3 months ago. It never smelled like leather. Been carnivore for 6 weeks, all of a sudden I can smell the leather! Amazing!
I’ve had no sense of smell or taste for over 15 years. I can determine sweet, salty etc, but that’s it. Bad sinus infections caused this years ago. I just live with it now.
Had anosmia for years. Always thought it was from my decades of smoking. Then I got sinus surgery and they removed a lot of polyps and my smell came back.
Chromium and vanadium are essential minerals to heal insulin resistance, as well as magnesium and potassium. Berberine (a herb) is also supposed to help.
@@KenanTurkiye thanks but it's not a curse. It usually happens when I see a picture, most often of a person. The smell I experience is most often unpleasant.
Thanks Doctor💐... Please Make a video on hearing loss /temporary hearing loss,its causes and solutions and the diet to avoid. I have been suffering low hearing off late. I think some fruits like walnuts, waternuts may have affected my hearing.
I may be the exception, I have lived a keto and intermittent fasting lifestyle for almost 5 years, I have parosmia now due to covid and I continue to fast daily, it's hard to eat keto now because I can no longer tolerate meat, eggs due to covid. Thanks for the video! Maybe I am not being strict keto enough!
Hi, how are you doing now? I'm sure you can restore your sense of smell eventually, with the right supplements etc. Stress inhibits healing as well, could that be a factor?
I have only come to your channel very recently. I have benefited mostly from other doctors that are on the same path as you. I am going to put apple cider vinegar on my shopping list for the first time and see if that is a positive effect.
I have taken zinc, d3, magnesium, selenium, C etc and a host of other vitamins this whole plandemic. I got the cold lost my senses and no improvement. 8 days down 6 pounds. I’m so depressed about not tasting food.
Allergic to Apples? On a Lectin Diet? There is an option: Coconut Vinegar. Comes live, with the Mother in the bottle. Apple cider vinegar ate my stomach. Thought I could do it (fermented, after all) but after about 6 months even well diluted, it was tearing up my gut.
@@sabrinajoseph424 A teaspoon in 8 ounces of warm water, first thing in the morning. I do not add carbs to the mix, I take it, as it were, straight. Nor will I use the fake sweeteners. Nausea after drinking the glass slowly (ostensibly to avoid that sensation) and a gradual disruption of what had been balanced (if not fully normal - reason for the vinegar). In time I found I was either constipated or fluid, so to speak. GERD flared. Had to reset the stomach so the valve would close. When I stopped the vinegar the nausea stopped and a couple of years later the GERD is gone. I'm getting a handle on the rest of processing tube. .Started back with the coconut vinegar last month -- mostly because it was time to add some live enzymes back into the system. Sauerkraut juice is a good alternative, but I end up with a jar of dry sauerkraut when I do that... It gets funky. So it's coconut or nothing. SO FAR it's going down easy, morning and evening.
Wait, Dr. Berg 40 UNITS? This should only be done under close observation in a safe environment, 40 units will defiantly cause Hypoglycemia. I’m an insulin dependent DM1 and can’t imagine a relatively healthy person with a working pancreas ingesting 40 units. For perspective, my pump distributes less than 2 units per hour, and when I bolus, or use insulin during a meal, I calculate the carbohydrates and “cover them” with insulin. So let’s say my blood glucose is 100, and my meal has 15 grams of carbohydrates, I would use approximately 0.7 units of insulin to stabilize my blood glucose/blood sugar.
❤️ Can you please make a video what can cause gas in the upper left abdomen? I have this condition for 8 years and it's getting worse. Doctors are telling me, 'oh it's just gas' but it is so painful. I roll around on a tennis ball every day for hours, trying to 'pop' the gas. It's always at the same spot. I can trigger a gurgling and popping from putting the tennis ball near the left kidney, sometimes under the left shoulder blade. What is that? And what is causing it? I've had several colonoscopies, etc. Nothing. ❤️ Love from Germany.
*Besides myself I have never heard anyone recommending GSE. Been using it 20yrs now. Great stuff helped me out with a terrible bout of food poisoning a few years ago. I use it to clean garden veggies too.*
Thank you for this video. I have not been able to smell/taste in 1 1/2 yrs I am 60 and type 2 diabetic. I have a lot of sinus infections and a sinus cyst. I have been trying to figure out what is the cause. I did have covid twice. I've never heard of the insulin theory. That is very interesting and I will research it. Also I have been using a nasal spray with xylitol it seems to be helping with sinus infections, any thoughts on that would be great.
I recall year a year or two before covid not being able to smell. Then suddenly it would return. I read something about alcohol so I stopped all beer. Now I am going on one year with no sense of smell at all. It's disheartening. When I began researching I came across Parkinson patients losing smell yrs before a diagnosis. Now I am freaking as I live in the house I bought from my aunt who passed from the disease, and I took care of her for about 5 of her last 6 years. Got one of their packets, a smell test, and I cannot perform one question as I don't smell any of the 4 answers. I smell nothing. See an ENT on the 30th. I did, however, begin sublingual zinc and B and D3 vits. I pray the sensory synapses are not gone for good as I had an incredible nose at one time.
Please do a video on potential side affects and dangers of doing Keto/IF throughout the week and then cheating on the weekend after already hitting your target weight goal.
@@Phuzz828 already at my weight loss goal after doing Keto/IF; want to know if there’s long term harmful side affects to doing keto during the week and then cheating on weekend. Berg had videos on carb cycling but I don’t think it’s in regards to the scenario I’m talking about
@@coryhowell3311 you can only not loose/ gain weight Nothing bad can happen . It is flexible metabolism and you can watch some videos of Dr. Jason Fung. He explains properly how it works this.
I also read that low testosterone can cause anosmia. Hormonal imbalance goes hand in hand with insulin resistance. Good luck folks, we will eventually get our sense of smell back, don't lose hope. Mine has improved since one year ago. There is still room for improvement.
My problem isn’t being able to smell. My problem is I just smell smoke or burnt toast/rubber all day long in my house. Nobody else can smell it. But something about the house triggers it. It smells so strong like someone is cooking. But when I go outside the smell goes away. It makes no sense. Maybe someone can help explain this to me.
What was the 40 ICU product they took for nasal insulin? Over the counter? Prescription? Why was this so vague!? I've tried many things- would be nice to know what product this is to confirm if I tried it aleady. Nasal health is one of the most underrated health subjects- they want us all in the dark! UPDATE: Per research it seems Walmart sells OTC Insulin that you can put in a empty nasal sprayer and spray up your nose- Only at walmart tho apparently. Hopefully this walmart otc insulin is '40 icu' whatever that means.
I lost my sense of smell and taste seven years ago and I assumed that it might be over-use of a nasal decongestant, though it could also have been from a nasty viral infection around 2014. I've been fasting 19:5 for eighteen months and have lost 103 pounds, following a strict keto regime. I've not regained my sense of smell nor taste yet, but I'm hoping things improve in my nostrils pretty soon.
Lost it with Covid! My sense of smell and taste was impeccable. Now I’m 3 days with my senses lessened. It’s returned some but not entirely. I only just got my positive covid results on this past Thursday but it was feeling a sinus infection 5 days prior then my sense of smell and taste decreased. I’ll be following these suggestions!!!!
I have been following these guidelines since COVID hit me but still no results. I am not diabetic or pre-diabetic. Do you have any other ideas, because I really would love to have my sense of smell back. Thank you Dr. Berg would there be harm in getting insulin spray for my nose to see if that helps? What does insulin consist of?
Dr. Berg has a couple other videos on loss of smell. I dont know if I actually had Covid, but I didnt feel good for a few days back in the spring and I noticed one night that o could barely smell anything. What I did was take a jar of instant coffee and sniffed it deeply. I was also sniffing a couple other items deeply, but I cant remember what they were, I think mint and a jar of Kim chi. Sense of smell was normal when I got up the next morning. I got the idea to basically huff safe food scents from a RUclips video on loss of smell, cant remember what video it was. (Sorry if this was dumb and not helpful at all 😉🤔)
@@meriambenali I think he means deeply smell it. Like a great cup of coffee in the morning or when you open the coffee jar to get that great whif of aroma from it, deeply smell it with a long inhale.

I started keto and zinc 3 years ago and havent been sick since then. Everyone around me caught covid and I actually wanted to catch it to develop immunity but I just cant get sick anymore. Of course no one believes this. My work just had an out break so bad everyone was wearing hazmat suits, gloves, boots, googles, face shields. I walk by in a tee shirt and they just stare at me in fear. I'm to the point now I dont really believe that virus are infectious as much as I think people are just unhealthy.
@@RkicF8 Same issue with HIV.
very interesting, I've always had issue with smell, could only smell very strong scents etc definitely am insulin resistant. thanks for vid!
i have tried everything dr berg says in his videos , i dont eat carbs at all,,im a personal trainer for over 15 years, no sugar,,im on diet thats high in potassium B1 zinc and i do eat ACV all time still,,im muslim so we fast 30 days every year and for over 18 hours, and still i never got back my sense of smell,only sometimes when i really train hard i get back my sense of smell for couple of hours then back to normal,,i been like this for about 6 years now, im 38 years old, it has ruined my life,its stressing me alot, i met a doctor told me you have pulips need to be removed he made me do operation and wasted 7000 us dollars and i still never got back my sense of smell,,
third !!!! 🐱🐱🐱
how to fix insulin resistance:
acv before sleep
fasting
avoid carbs and sugar
potassium
vitamin d
vitamin b1
exercise
thank you dr berg!!
Even though you won't see this; Please, Doctor Berg, when mentioning ACV, also include how it blocks calcium absorption and needs to have a 2 weeks off period between 2-3 weeks on periods, for one's calcium levels to be sufficient.
😮😮 Oh I didn't know that, thanks for sharing 😀
Thanks for sharing.
Where did you get this data from?
Yes!
People have been adding acv to bone stock and bone broth to draw the minerals etc out of the bones for generations.
Just got the insulin and spray bottle from Walmart. I’m very excited and hopeful, hope it works! Thanks Dr. Berg this was very much on time
Any results yet?
Any results?
sounds crazy but my sense of smell was so good before i got covid it caused me anxiety.....6 mo after covid i still don't smell most bad things and wow ...i love it. What's funny is most of my taste is still in tact.
Same here since 9 months. I‘m so tired of it.
Since 10 months..... Onions , sweat and public toilet. Everything is smelling the same.
I hear that is a side effect of c19. Two family members suffered from this pre-c19. One in her 80s lost her sense of taste after surgery. The other lost his sense of smell after serving in the Korean war. Sadly, both have passed on. Best of health to you. ❤
@@shailesh108 same! :(
@@VideoDead69 have you consulted any doctor ? Because here in India no doctor know anything about it?
The video misses the most important element: zinc
I never knew I was not smelling anything around me until I had zinc. Especially, when I had lentil.
I started smelling everything around me.
Now i have my own zinc test which I go to my room that had a fire before, if I don't smell a thing, I know it's time to get some zinc !
Update: I guess I missed it as per the comments as I also didn't see it in the summary
He actually did mention zinc.
He mentioned it yes.
Go back to 2:40 and watch his suggestions to restore smell. Zinc.
You liketo sound smart hhuh
@@pinkdarkrose hahaha I feel like Dr berg is my representative really. He is the only person I know who I can trust in my health. Also the community we have here is really helpful to identify some issues I never knew I had which can hopefully help me fix my long time issue I had for over 12 years
It's been 9 months with no taste and smell so I'll definitely be trying this. Thanx for the hope Doc!
9 months?? Is this after you had covid?
@@khairt1731 Yea Covid. November 18th I lost my taste and smell. The last couple weeks I've had progress tho. Sometimes I'll catch a whiff of smell but can't tell what it is
how has your diet been? do you eat a lot of carbs?
@@Beautybysabrina No not crazy. I've actually been doing a lot of fasting lately. Been about 20 hrs since my last meal. I dont eat pizza and hot cheetohs anymore. Lol
Have you found a method that worked? I'm almost going on 1 year without smell.
This info is gold💯. Also Alpha Lipoic Acid helps with insulin resistance.
Big thanks to Dr Berg about an old video about zinc, which I have been taken it and getting great improvement to improve my smell. Thanks Dr Berg!! :))
Fantastic Dr Berg 🤗.Love from Bangalore ,India
My sense of smell decreased over 15 years ago. I knew I had a viral sinus infection but my sinuses seemed extremely dry but inflamed. After that I lost about 50% of my sense of smell. It's amazing how much I miss the depth of smell, like the leaves in the fall. I can only smell them slightly. The loss of smell is specific to certain things, other smells are fine like citrus. I'm a clinical educator and was still doing patient care 15 years ago. I could smell urine but not bowel movements. Doesn't seem like a bad thing to lose but in healthcare it all matters. I talked to another woman with the same exact problem and she told me she couldn't tell when her grandchildren's diapers needed to be changed.
Please tell me how you're doing, I got the same viral infection but its affecting the sensation through my whole body
@@Bleeperblopper497 Mine was not from Covid. I have some smell just not all of it. Super selective. Nothing else going on with me I never get sick
Sounds like Mine. Also about 15 years ago. Wondered if it’s from zicam.
@@fitwithbrittany2706 I did use it a little bit so it could very well be. Oh well, so much for the FDA approval process
Thank you for making this video. I have been suffering from Parosmia for 7 months now after having covid. I have been taking supplements and just recently started back on a ketogenic diet. I and going to incorporate your suggestions as I already know I'm insulin resistant. Thank you so much for this information!!
You're most welcome! Hope this helps you!
Hey there, i hope you having a great day. I want to ask you if your sense of smell had improved ? And what supplements did you take please
Did it help ?
How are you now?
I am 4 years post-menopausal. I am around a lot of vaccinated people with my job, I started having a heavy period every two weeks, headaches, chest pressure for the past 3 months. Please do a video on what the Covid "Injected" are doing to others.
You think all your symptoms are caused by being around those with the vaccine? May I know why? I’m still on the fence as to whether or not I should get the vaccination.
We never got sick or covid until around the vaccinated.
@@sabrinajoseph424 DO NOT GET THOSE SHOTS! - RN
Guess it was about a year ago Covid kicked my butt. Being diabetic-unvax delta should put me 6ft under. Completely gave up on smell ever returning. Must watch vid again with open mind to swallow digest this info. Someone must report this guy to Department of Defense! This guy is the "BOMB".
Actually the delta variant has a lower mortality rate then the original variant, look it up. You will have some natural antibodies now from having covid which is a plus!
You’re immune, or should be. I recently got some HCQ, just in case. My brother got horribly sick with covid 3 days after it arrived and I gave him some. He was completely symptom free in 24 hours. Not feeling better - it was like he was never sick.
@@rc.1761 look it up where exactly, maybe it got updated
What a coincidence, I just was thinking that my smell improved the last couple of days. I do keto for 4 years. But lately doing IF and take ACV with salts. Think the last one is the reason it improved, so probably allergies. I have always a bit of a stuffy nose (hope thats correct English :D )
What kind of salts are you using?
Hmm… I always thought was my sinusitis that contributed to my loss of smell and taste because ever since I had a bad episode of sinus infection, I lost my sense of smell and never recuperated 100%. ☹️
Thank you for the new insight on loss of smell. 🙌
Same for me. I had a wicked sinus infection in 2018 and lost my smell completely. I've been getting some of it back but not fully. I get sad when I remember some of the smells I used to enjoy. 😕
You guys think you have it bad, I'm gradually losing sensation throughout my whole body because of it, not just my nose and tongue
Wow..very interesting information about Insulin relation to smell ..once again Dr Berg bringing new facts..thank u and regards 🙏
Outstanding Dr. Berg!! Luckily I don‘t have any problems right now and nobody I know, yet. Crazy time, but this info could make a huge difference. I‘ve heard long-haulers are still suffering from loss of smell/taste, some over 1 year 😔
Thank you Dr. Berg.
You're most welcome.
Thank you Dr berg for your valuable video and add free content
I’ve the opposite issue doc. I have an increased sense of smell called hyperosmia. It’s making my life miserable from the past few years and lately affecting my sleep and day to day routine as i smell my mother frying onions in the kitchen when i’m sleeping. She doesn’t listen to me and my mental health is a mess. Please doc you have to help me. I’ve searched the whole internet and found no cure. I don’t trust the drs enough to consult either since they have been misdiagnosing me with adhd for 10 years.
I eat a very low sugar diet, lots of fish, veggies, berries, etc. Been supplementing with zinc, D + K, vitamin C and NAC throughout the pandemic. Contracted Omicron and lost sense of smell immediately. My brother and his wife, both diabetics had it too and didn't lose their sense of smell. So, I think it can be hard to say why some people do and some don't. I will do olfactory training and hope it will help it return soon.
There is a 💯% cure to anosmia and am permanently cure,with Dr iyaremoses on RUclips.
I've definitely heard of olfactory training and using herbs and/or essential oils to re-train your smell =)
Thank you - been revising some of my 'habits' this is so helpful.
Most welcome. Glad you found it helpful.
I lost my sense of smell and taste after covid in January. My daughter lost her smell, too but now she can't stand the smell of her favorite perfume. Me, it's hard to smell and a lot of times I have to put it right up to my nose to be able to actually smell it and then it's minimal. My taste buds are pretty much shot, but I will try this to see if it helps. Thanks for all the great information you share with us.
How is your smell now?
@@TheOnlyWayIsJesus My smelling ability is over the top now. It's weird because my sense of smell has gone the opposite and is very sensitive now. I had covid again after that first time and that is when both my daughter and myself noticed the sensitivity to smells took over. No idea if it was related or not, just noting the same experience and she and I are now in different states when we got it a 2nd time.
@@praeeo That's great.. how long did you go without smell and taste? It's been 5 weeks for me, and I'm pretty much just as you described in your original comment.
@@praeeo How long did you have loss of smell and taste?
How to restore smell in kids? Not Covid related not weight related. Thank you very much
What about reducing their sugar /carbs foods and increasing their healthy fats consumption? Like DHA, ect. With cans of cod liver in big salads? Or at least the supplements if they can't stand the salads. Provide enough electrolytes, especially potassium and salt and nutritional yeast, vitamin D3&k2, ect. So they don't crave sweet foods. Actually Dr Berg has videos on what to feed children.
Haven't had sense of smell or taste for 20 years since polyps removal. Where do I get the insulin nose spray. Already taking 50 MG of zinc, 5000mg d3 and vitamin c. Thank you Dr Berg.
Huh. Very interesting. I always appreciate my sense of smell. I was able to drink ACV straight when I lost my sense of smell and taste. I stopped eating because I couldn't smell or taste anything. A five day fast was all it took.
@Alfred Weber Ugh. I'm sorry. That's really hard to deal with.
@Alfred Weber Same here 🤣. Everyone around me is like how tf you gained weight🤣🤣🤣
@Alfred Weber same here. I haven’t had covid but I’ve temporarily lost my taste/smell after respiratory infections. I would eat and eat and eat trying to taste something.
Wow. Cool. Thank you so much for sharing!
lydia did you lose your sense of smell and taste due to cover?
Dr. Berg, life is so much harder with Parosmia. Could you please help give tips on how to manage symptoms ?
After brain surgery in November 2020, where they removed one brain tumour, I'm likely to have very little smell for the rest of my life. He told me he had to lift one of the nerves a little bit during the surgery and that probably damage that nerve with scars following. I still think that the other one is intact but I still can't smell things very much. Or taste. That really sucks. But now when I've started on Keto I will also start taking zink. Hmm... I wonder if I can spray some Colloidal zinc directly in to the nose 🤔
Actually, zinc nose sprays have been known to cause loss of smell.
@@robertrinehuls9099 Ooo, I've never heard about that before. Then it might not be a good idea then.
@@charlottebetulander5414 Yeah, there was an FDA warning about Zicam affecting some people that way. That said, I used colloidal zinc in my nose a few times years ago and I can still smell okay.
@@robertrinehuls9099 I don't know what a FDA warning or Zicam is, but I get the point. I will try garlic water with some salt in the nose for a couple of weeks instead. 👍
Have you checked Dr Berg's videos on the nervous system? Also his videos on B1 as benfotiamine and on electrolytes, especially potassium. And on nutritional yeast.
Okay, bought a leather chair 3 months ago. It never smelled like leather. Been carnivore for 6 weeks, all of a sudden I can smell the leather! Amazing!
Good morning ☕️. Good information always. Thank you Dr. Berg. 🥰😷

Hi Dr I tried your Superfood capsules, feel great already thanks for all your hard work 👌
Good morning all 💜
Colloidal silver spray in nose.
I lost smell and taste. July 2018. It started out with a strong metallic burnt orange smell and taste. I would say, I am slowly getting it back.
I’ve had no sense of smell or taste for over 15 years. I can determine sweet, salty etc, but that’s it. Bad sinus infections caused this years ago. I just live with it now.
Had anosmia for years. Always thought it was from my decades of smoking. Then I got sinus surgery and they removed a lot of polyps and my smell came back.
Did your polyps come back?
How are you doing now?
PLEASE DOC !!, make a video on allergic rhinitis.
Excellent to know this!!!
Chromium and vanadium are essential minerals to heal insulin resistance, as well as magnesium and potassium. Berberine (a herb) is also supposed to help.
Needed this
My sense of smell is always through the roof.
Mine too, very sensitive.
I get olfactory hallucinations
@@voxtur__7 Didn't even know such a thing existed, just read a paragraph about it, I wish you well. :/
@@KenanTurkiye thanks but it's not a curse. It usually happens when I see a picture, most often of a person. The smell I experience is most often unpleasant.
@@voxtur__7 No illness is a curse, even the most demanding ones, we are beigns above and beyond any ilnesses we may have in this life. 👍
Thanks Doctor💐... Please Make a video on hearing loss /temporary hearing loss,its causes and solutions and the diet to avoid.
I have been suffering low hearing off late. I think some fruits like walnuts, waternuts may have affected my hearing.
Recently after covid my sense of smell came back after 3 weeks
Thanks Doc!
Great concept 👌Great job 👏👍Great respect 👏👍👌
I may be the exception, I have lived a keto and intermittent fasting lifestyle for almost 5 years, I have parosmia now due to covid and I continue to fast daily, it's hard to eat keto now because I can no longer tolerate meat, eggs due to covid. Thanks for the video! Maybe I am not being strict keto enough!
Hi, how are you doing now? I'm sure you can restore your sense of smell eventually, with the right supplements etc. Stress inhibits healing as well, could that be a factor?
I have only come to your channel very recently. I have benefited mostly from other doctors that are on the same path as you. I am going to put apple cider vinegar on my shopping list for the first time and see if that is a positive effect.
Hi Dr Berg .. I'm currently fighting COVID and loss my smell and taste sense .. what's the latest on what I should take to recover??
I have taken zinc, d3, magnesium, selenium, C etc and a host of other vitamins this whole plandemic. I got the cold lost my senses and no improvement. 8 days down 6 pounds. I’m so depressed about not tasting food.
You took them religiously every day?
Yes. I started in March of 2020.
@@judygreeneRedheadbeauty how are you now?
Allergic to Apples? On a Lectin Diet? There is an option: Coconut Vinegar. Comes live, with the Mother in the bottle.
Apple cider vinegar ate my stomach. Thought I could do it (fermented, after all) but after about 6 months even well diluted, it was tearing up my gut.
Why was it tearing up your gut? How’d you drink it? And how’d you know it was messing with your guts?
@@sabrinajoseph424 A teaspoon in 8 ounces of warm water, first thing in the morning. I do not add carbs to the mix, I take it, as it were, straight. Nor will I use the fake sweeteners.
Nausea after drinking the glass slowly (ostensibly to avoid that sensation) and a gradual disruption of what had been balanced (if not fully normal - reason for the vinegar). In time I found I was either constipated or fluid, so to speak.
GERD flared. Had to reset the stomach so the valve would close.
When I stopped the vinegar the nausea stopped and a couple of years later the GERD is gone. I'm getting a handle on the rest of processing tube.
.Started back with the coconut vinegar last month -- mostly because it was time to add some live enzymes back into the system. Sauerkraut juice is a good alternative, but I end up with a jar of dry sauerkraut when I do that... It gets funky.
So it's coconut or nothing.
SO FAR it's going down easy, morning and evening.
Wait, Dr. Berg 40 UNITS? This should only be done under close observation in a safe environment, 40 units will defiantly cause Hypoglycemia. I’m an insulin dependent DM1 and can’t imagine a relatively healthy person with a working pancreas ingesting 40 units. For perspective, my pump distributes less than 2 units per hour, and when I bolus, or use insulin during a meal, I calculate the carbohydrates and “cover them” with insulin. So let’s say my blood glucose is 100, and my meal has 15 grams of carbohydrates, I would use approximately 0.7 units of insulin to stabilize my blood glucose/blood sugar.
❤️ Can you please make a video what can cause gas in the upper left abdomen? I have this condition for 8 years and it's getting worse. Doctors are telling me, 'oh it's just gas' but it is so painful. I roll around on a tennis ball every day for hours, trying to 'pop' the gas. It's always at the same spot. I can trigger a gurgling and popping from putting the tennis ball near the left kidney, sometimes under the left shoulder blade. What is that? And what is causing it? I've had several colonoscopies, etc. Nothing. ❤️ Love from Germany.

Hello dr. Thank you for your valuable content.
Anytime.
Thank you for this video. I have not been able to smell/taste in 1 1/2 yrs I am 60 and type 2 diabetic. I have a lot of sinus infections and a sinus cyst. I have been trying to figure out what is the cause. I did have covid twice. I've never heard of the insulin theory. That is very interesting and I will research it. Also I have been using a nasal spray with xylitol it seems to be helping with sinus infections, any thoughts on that would be great.
I recall year a year or two before covid not being able to smell. Then suddenly it would return. I read something about alcohol so I stopped all beer. Now I am going on one year with no sense of smell at all. It's disheartening. When I began researching I came across Parkinson patients losing smell yrs before a diagnosis. Now I am freaking as I live in the house I bought from my aunt who passed from the disease, and I took care of her for about 5 of her last 6 years. Got one of their packets, a smell test, and I cannot perform one question as I don't smell any of the 4 answers. I smell nothing. See an ENT on the 30th. I did, however, begin sublingual zinc and B and D3 vits. I pray the sensory synapses are not gone for good as I had an incredible nose at one time.
Please do a video on potential side affects and dangers of doing Keto/IF throughout the week and then cheating on the weekend after already hitting your target weight goal.
dangers and side effects?? you should maybe look up carb cycling. It can be beneficial for weight loss. Experiment and dont go crazy with it
@@Phuzz828 already at my weight loss goal after doing Keto/IF; want to know if there’s long term harmful side affects to doing keto during the week and then cheating on weekend. Berg had videos on carb cycling but I don’t think it’s in regards to the scenario I’m talking about
@@coryhowell3311 you can only not loose/ gain weight
Nothing bad can happen . It is flexible metabolism and you can watch some videos of Dr. Jason Fung. He explains properly how it works this.
My momma always used to tell me I had bad taste in men. The last man I chewed on didn't have any taste at all! I'm improving, momma!
I also read that low testosterone can cause anosmia. Hormonal imbalance goes hand in hand with insulin resistance. Good luck folks, we will eventually get our sense of smell back, don't lose hope. Mine has improved since one year ago. There is still room for improvement.
My problem isn’t being able to smell. My problem is I just smell smoke or burnt toast/rubber all day long in my house. Nobody else can smell it. But something about the house triggers it. It smells so strong like someone is cooking. But when I go outside the smell goes away. It makes no sense. Maybe someone can help explain this to me.
Thank you Dr Berg : )
You're welcome!
My father has such problem, i will use such therapy of insulein on it.
What was the 40 ICU product they took for nasal insulin? Over the counter? Prescription? Why was this so vague!? I've tried many things- would be nice to know what product this is to confirm if I tried it aleady. Nasal health is one of the most underrated health subjects- they want us all in the dark! UPDATE: Per research it seems Walmart sells OTC Insulin that you can put in a empty nasal sprayer and spray up your nose- Only at walmart tho apparently. Hopefully this walmart otc insulin is '40 icu' whatever that means.
I lost my sense of smell and taste seven years ago and I assumed that it might be over-use of a nasal decongestant, though it could also have been from a nasty viral infection around 2014. I've been fasting 19:5 for eighteen months and have lost 103 pounds, following a strict keto regime. I've not regained my sense of smell nor taste yet, but I'm hoping things improve in my nostrils pretty soon.

What does insulin consist of?
Dr. Berg has a couple other videos on loss of smell. I dont know if I actually had Covid, but I didnt feel good for a few days back in the spring and I noticed one night that o could barely smell anything. What I did was take a jar of instant coffee and sniffed it deeply. I was also sniffing a couple other items deeply, but I cant remember what they were, I think mint and a jar of Kim chi. Sense of smell was normal when I got up the next morning. I got the idea to basically huff safe food scents from a RUclips video on loss of smell, cant remember what video it was. (Sorry if this was dumb and not helpful at all 😉🤔)
@@iwanttosurvive3992 You mean sniffing like one would sniff cocaine?
Well once we’ll fully understand long haul Covid there will be solutions. For now you could always try Lion’s Mane
