I've started eating salads six days a week. This week, I've started eating Caesar salads with homemade Caesar salad dressing, which contains EVOO, MCT oil, ACV, lemon juice, lemon zest, anchovies, garlic, egg yolks, Dijon mustard, sundried tomatoes, basil pesto, and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. It's so good, and I'm still consistently losing weight! I'm down 60 lbs in just under 5 months!
7 Best Foods that clean the liver 1. CRUCIFEROUS VEGETABLES 2. EGGS 3. SPROUTS 4. BEETS 5. GARLIC 6. FATTY FISH FOODS 7. LEMON Thank you so much Dr.Berg . This is very informative Love from Toronto 🇨🇦
@Brodie carnivore high fat with lemon? I have SIBO and many things kill my intestines, so high animal fats and high meat with Waterloo lemon/lime is nice.
My liver was actually in deep trouble, I was eating too much sugar salt and processed foods, I stopped and ate extremely healthy and was able to reverse my liver damage It took approximately 4 weeks of healthy eating and fasting
And my doctor had the nerve to tell me there wasn’t a connection between the liver and my thyroid! We really have to educate ourselves when it comes to our health! Thank you for yours videos Doctor! 🙏🏽
Sadly all of us women need to really educate ourselves on health issues ❗In my experience Doctors don't really care about women's health, and in California you can hardly get a Doctor, because our State has so many Illegals, and they come first of course!
I have to tell you that your information has improved my health drastically. I had severe intestinal issues that prevented me from working full time. My job was stressful due to the way it was operated, so Cortosal was an issue. My first Dr appointment they sent me home with an anacid & antidepressent. I don't like pills. Also I have just about every other detriment you've listed as being a deterrent to weight lost , Post Menapasal , I had Thyroid Cancer at 18 y/o old & my gallbladder removed in 2019 at age 63. I still felt terrible; after the gallbladder surgery & everyone around me just said it was part of getting old. I stumbled across your videos & Oh Boy did the education you provide change my life. I started Keto around the 1st of July. I feel fantastic I lost 21 lbs of fat, I enjoy cooking for the 1st time in my life. I introduced Intermittent fasting in August after learning more about & comprehending blood test results. I know that the glucose in my blood was high after having given up bread , rice & noodles 10 years ago & still I suffered and gained weight even though I thought I had removed all my carbs. The ones I hadn't addressed until June (because I didn't check, due to denial) I was a nonfat milkaholic. I consumed 2 gallons of non-fat milk every week. That is 416 carbs now add the graham crackers that I used to soak of that constant acid and satisfy my constant hunger for another 624 carbs. Also I was instructed that in order to help with my constipation I should consume a bowl of steel cut oats with fruit, for another 217 carbs. That was 159 carbs over my 20 allowed in a day. They have been other addictions that I shed along my way to a much healthier productive lifestyle. I just want to thank you so very much. I got rid of those prescribed medicines after a month because as I shared with my Doctor I don't trust Big Pharma & don't believe they have my best interests at heart. I've seen all the smears, & man you must be pure because such lame smears they were. I think you've done a great job & contributed so much wonderful essential information. I can't afford your gallbladder supplements but my Daughter just ordered some for me because I do have the sludgey bile & I can't wait to see the improvement once I'm able to process those fat soluble vitamins & minerals. I just wish I would have asked my Daughter sooner. I go to the Doctor on Monday & I am excited to see the difference in my blood. Thank you again, I wish I had more to contribute than my obvious gratitude and admiration of your contribution to this crazy world.
“People are fed by the food industry, which pays no attention to health, and are treated by the health industry, which pays no attention to food.” - Wendell Berry I’m so glad that I found your channel! Finally, a Doc who cares about both! God bless you, Doc! Thank you for making these videos!
@jossfangirl The TV? More like the unholy alliances between Big Pharma, BigTech, BigFood, and BigGovt! The TV is just one of many of their delivery mechanisms.
Lemon is good for your liver AND it's good for your kidneys too! I learned from this channel that kidney stones get broken down by drinking lemon and lime juice. Lime juice helped me get rid of my kidney stone. I like to drink lemon or lime juice now and then so I never get one again. A lot of women that have had kids say that kidney stones can be WORSE than giving birth.
Dr Berg, thank you🙏🏻❤️. You are saving lives! I’ve completely change my life since I’m watching your videos. My mom passed from liver cancer, and my dad from kidney failure. Unfortunately they both had very unhealthy lifestyles and diets. I’m turning it all around. Proudly reporting that I do 80% of what you’re video shows. Still have a lot more to go. Switching to organic vegetables and fruits, and need to have a green juice daily. I started making my Sauerkraut every two weeks ( 5 cabbage) that I eat every day. No sugar at all, only lemon water, no alcohol, very small amount of carbs, ( bread) that I make( no preservatives like store bought). Thank you🙏🏻❤️ so much for turning my life around. I still have a lot to change by I’m on a good path. Gratitude 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Dear Dr. Berg. I had a fatty liver that was affecting my thyroid levels and I started loosing skin color, created by white patches, also known as Vitiligo. The vitiligo spread to both hands and my groin area. At first I went go see a skin doctor, then I was referred to my general doctor to check my thyroid. I also had neck pains and visited the chiropractor. SURPRISINGLY, it was your video regarding the cleansing of a fatty liver that help me removed the white spots on my hand and reduced it by 50%. I lost 20 pounds eventually, gain energy and the neck pains were gone. Please let me know where I can send you photos of my hand. Vitiligo doesn't really have a cure and I believe a lot of people are not aware that it all starts at the liver. I had used multiple creams, with no results, even my skin doctor is surprised.... Thank you for all your help. Elkin Cabrera
As someone who suffered for years from long-standing liver and gallbladder dysfunction, I now eat all these foods regularly and avoid sugar (including most fruit), avoid all plant seed oils, processed foods, and insulinemic foods. I eat mainly high-fat beef steak and vegetables (steamed or fried in animal fats like tallow) and feel great again. I believe that supplementing daily with a high quality B-Complex (containing Choline, Benfotiamine, and Methylcobalamin), Betaine-HCL, TUDCA, Vitamin D3 (with K2), and Cod Liver Oil has also helped to restore my liver function to optimal levels. I also do a 48 hour water fast once per week.
Wow! That is awesome you cured your live. Can you please tell me do you take Betaine HCL and Tudka together and how much do you take in a day! I have no gall bladder and recently started having a lot of digestive issues with digesting fats and anything I eat!
@@NansGlobalKitchen I take one 500mg Betaine-HCL and 250mg TUDCA together with every meal. I also take 500mg-750mg of TUDCA with a large glass of water on an empty stomach, just before bed, every 3-4 days. Please note that when i first started treating the sludge that was filling my liver and gall ducts, i took 1000mg of TUDCA on an empty stomach, twice a day (before bed and early morninhg) for an entire month. This was to thin the sludge that was backing-up the ducts.
@@NansGlobalKitchen go listen to the awesome guys at Diverse Health Services... I think you could definitely benefit from Betafood whole food vitamins! 😊
You are a life-saver and so gifted in explaining health issues. Just started listening to your videos on the liver. For 25 years I've experienced all of the symptoms you're describing and you are the first medical expert to connect it all to my liver and how I've been destroying it! Thank you for clarifying the issue and presenting me with a clear plan. Just filled the trash can with all the garbage I've been eating. Now headed to the grocery store to start over and follow every suggestion. God bless you.
I was just diagnosed with fatty Liver and I have many symptoms you mentioned. I eat better than most, but I do have HBP, fatigue, thin skin that bruises easily and tears easily, feet and ankles itching! I love cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli and I juice vegetables in the summer. This has been so informative and helpful. Thank you for your life saving information!
My Uncle was a life long alcoholic that quit drinking cold turkey after the Doctor said his death was imminent due to a failing liver. His liver made a complete recovery.
AS I've said in prior videos, Thank you! I am 2 months into keto diet.... clean one. I started with just meat all organic farm raised no corn or antibiotics. My 25 yr.old daughter has been eating 5 times a week with me. We both only eat one meal for last 14 days with cabbage or broccoli and 6 oz of meat and half of a cauliflower roasted no real starch. Watrr, tea no sugar coffee black and tumeric, ginger, cinnamon, tea combo 2 times a day. Also the c,d,zinc,magnisum, codliveroil,and b vitamins. I add Clove to my teas, for hot flashes. She started a regular cycle for first time in 8 months. And my feet and side are no longer hurting. Thankyou. Thank you thank you
I have had constipation for years. I literally can check off every symptom for a bad liver, including edema now. I went to the doctors so many times regarding this. I had one doctor that told me to just eat tons of cream of wheat. Then I had another that said I just need to lower my cholesterol. I showed them my swollen ankles, told them about pain in my lower back and pain on the front right side near my belly button. I told them about my itchy skin and how my I was losing my hair. Not one doctor mentioned anything about my liver. When I told the doctor about my constant of constipation, they gave me a medication that was supposed to encourage me to go. I need to change my life immediately.
Hello dear change of diet is the beat. I had cholesterol but didn't know that my liver was affected. Used to feel nausea, instead of belching I used to fart alot, anytime any where. My sight was affected. I started eating too much and urinating too much, suddenly I checked my sugar and found it was high. Am not diabetic, but fasting was 12.0mmols! I started on diet and wishing 2 weeks I felt better. No more farting, clear vision,no nausea, alot more has changed. So dieting is the way to go. All swelling and pain will go. All the best.
Adding fresh lemon juice to kale and then massage it like you are kneading bread. It breaks it down so that it’s easier to digest - plus, it helps it taste sweeter. It helps to remove the bitterness of the kale. It tastes soooo much better, you will absorb more nutrients and have less bloating. 🎉
Dr. Berg, you have changed/saved me at least a dozen times throughout the years. I'm so thankful for all your help... My body is amazing because of your info and my ability to change bad habits... I'm 60 I went from obese to 13% body fat and lost 40 pounds, your amazing information is my bible for health you have never been wrong. 5 Stars!!! Thank you for everything...
Yup. Many doctors don’t help you stay healthy and live a healthier lifestyle. They don’t focus at all on nutrition. They just want to give you pills. I chose my PCP because the first thing he said to me five years ago at our first visit was …. You are too fat!!! I gave out a sigh of relief. 😂 He was surprised that I didn’t get angry.
@@Drberg sir if anybody translate in Bangla if would be even easier to understand...as you know there are 330 million nearly speaking Bangla as a language. I appreciate your great work sir.much love from Bangladesh...
@@Drberg watching your videos has been both eye opening and sad for me, I watched the video about the feet, then the ones about what to and not to eat for the liver... my gallbladder was removed in 2006, sadly I could have avoided the procedure if the care providers that noticed I was growing stones in it, when they were doing an ultrasound to make sure my uterus was clean after my miscarriage, had made a better effort to make me or my husband aware of it, giving the painful circumstances we were facing at the moment. But instead I found out 15 years later as I unburied and read the documents from that day that I had gallstones... I am learning now that I probably should have been taking bile salts, long time ago, I can see my problems steam from the prednisone (I didn’t take it too long because it wrecked havoc in me), antibiotics... all you can imagine and more (I have no teeth left of my own, thank God, I was able to get transplants) I was diagnosed with pharestisia (not sure spelled it right) and probably wasn't, as you mentioned the pain in the right side of the neck and shoulder, my left foot has been numbed on and off for a while, sometimes I get this horrible sharp pains, I'm having the tightness under my bust, have psoriasis in my head, ears, legs and nails, I feel supertired all the time to the point I take naps, lost all my flexibility... Anxiety...Gained out of the blue over 10 pounds in a snap of my fingers, I'm trying to put together a map of my health and all you've talked about to try and pinpoint how bad it is... But believe me, as bad as it sounds I just push through like nothing is going on.
I started to apply Dr. Berg's information since May this year. In three months I lost 25lbs (180 to 155). I am 64 and my body looks like in my early 20s' with 6 pax. Thank you Dr. Berg.
By doing what the doctor tells you to do : green salads, fresh drinks from vegetable, and so on... Look at rhe list here above and start doing it.. You will see how fast you are losing fat and weight... Do it instead of talking about it.. Wish you all the best!!!
@@leninha5549 I am only eating twice a day and drinking vinegar ,lemon or cinnamon and I don't eat small meals and I am still loosing weigh slowly, I want to get to the point of eating small meals but I am happy that I am still using weight after 5 years.
This is good advice. My mom's liver failure was caught very late. Controlling her diet was key to giving her some good years during her last few. I can tell you that if you take a lot of Tylenol, have diabetes or crave sweets and eat mostly processed food - YOU NEED TO CONSIDER your LIVER. Liver failure is a really bad illness to confront and alcohol is not its only cause. You change your trajectory easily if you look after yourself early.
I have a family member who was just diagnosed with nonalcoholic liver cirrhosis. What did you do for your Mom which helped the most? I am determined to help my family member to get through this with good quality of life.
@@debjo788 For her physical health:Try to keep to the diet that they gave you and stay on the meds. One of the meds is a laxative but it helps the most. There is a new drug DT-109 but I know nothing about it. Most importantly spend as much time as you can. On good days, go out and do something fun. Be sure to ask her all the questions you ever had. Say "I love you" every day. They told me my mom had about a year, we gave her over 3 good years. Bless your heart.
Dr Berg needs more than 8 million subscribers. This channel is an essential imo for anything health related! I Don't trust anything that's put out regarding health until i've seen it on this channel
One of the BEST liver videos!! We really need a “liver” emoji to celebrate this miraculous organ. One question, will DIM help the liver as well since it is cruciferous?
Dr. Berg I will be 76 in a few days. I retired at age 70 and 3 months later found I had stage 4 colorectal cancer. I also had a extremely large tumor around my left kidney and that type of cancer I can't pronounce but did not respond to treatment so they had to get it all the first time. Luckily they did get it all. After the smoke settled I was left with one kidney and an ostomy bag At about three years through my chemo treatments I had to have my gal bladder removed. After almost 5 years and 107 chemo therapy treatments I am still here. I quit the chemo about 6 months ago and am in observation mode now with no cancer at this time I was told it could come back at anytime but so far so good. I have been watching your videos for some time now and recently heard you mention how bile works but I have no gall bladder so I guess I don't digest fats very well. I also have slid into type 2 diabetes along with everything else. It would be great if you could someday do a video with more information to help us who have no gall bladder. Possible supplements?? I am also on blood thinner (Eliquis) so I may have reactions to some drugs or supplements. Thanks, Dennis
I knew an elderly retired lithographer married to an RN. She told him to start his own print shop. So, early he opened and liked to have a cup of tea. He was from one of the Caribbean islands. He told me he dad a urinary problem. One day a woman customer came to his shop and brought him a box of Viking corn muffins. He ate one with his tea and told me the corn muffin stopped his frequent urination. He lived in Brooklyn, NY.
2 years ago I was experiencing a gout flare and I didn't have any meds or anything to help reduce the pain. This lovely woman who I met on a plane to California told me to drink 100% cherry juice. And when I did, the gout was going away almost immediately. There's medicine in real food.
OMG, I am so appreciative of Dr. Berg for pointing out right shoulder back pain, I have had it for years, and massaging only helps a little. I'm going to take care of my liver, I hope these diet change will also improve my dry eye issues, they say liver and eyes are correlated!
I agree, Thank you Dr. Berg for continuing to educate and inform us , your daily videos are a constant reminder for me to get my act together, still having a tough time procrastinating, will power and discipline.
@@Drberghi Dr Berg - got a question. I currently take milk thistle and choline. If I begin taking ur product “liver cleanse,” should I stop taking my regular milk thistle and choline?
Love this! Thank you!! I know I got a fatty liver from all those protein shakes believing they were healthy in my beginning journey of health and nutrition and now learning better bcz I damaged my body. But thanks to you Doctor Berg for teaching us better and helping us heal and be healthier the right way!!
You are the best, Dr. Berg. Your health advice through this channel has positively influenced my eating habits and overall health. My health has improved tremendously, all thanks to you. I am deeply grateful for your hard work and dedication on behalf of us all. Thank you, and God Bless.
I just can't thank you enough Dr Berg for all of your knowledge !! I was in a panic stressing about my liver because I've been having thst rt side " pain" and I'm awaiting my ultrasound results. I am not a drinker at all but this video explains so much!! I am going to implement all of this starting today .
One of the most perfect videos to improve our health! If the liver is overtaxed, then we feel BAD. I'm so grateful for being educated in eating healthy keto. It has truly saved my life.
Dear Dr. Berg, You are an Angel as I always listen to your detailed lecture pertaining to LIVER as I have fatty liver and diabetes, and high blood pressure. Thanks please continue your valuable programs. God bless you, sir!
Idk if I have any liver issues, but if Dr. Berg posts a video I’m gonna watch it. I stumbled across Dr. Berg and also Sten Ekberg 2.5 months ago when I was 335# and feeling like a piece of crap. I’m now 75 days into Intermittent Fasting and I’m down 51.5# so far! Thank you Dr. Berg!
I swear Dr Berg is so helpful and love the longer videos . these videos give people hope and a reason to do the right thing when it comes to how we treat our bodies .
@@grandwonder5858 I have the same question because I have Antibodies and on high dose of medication and was wondering how to take the Milkthistle herb?
This is timely. We were in a bad accident and my husband has a few fractures, lacerated spleen and bruised liver. They gave him a trauma cocktail with Tylenol and treated his pain with Tylenol. About a week later his liver enzymes were high. He isn’t taking Tylenol anymore. But I’m hoping to reverse any damage if possible.
Start taking NAC 600mg. along with with vitamin C 500 mg. (To reduce the NAC) 3x daily while injured and once a day for life it will help prevent free radicals by being the precursor to glutathione. Okay to take with ALL Rx medications that I'm aware of check insert if you're on anything obscure. Retired Rph. Good luck 🙏🏻
my doc told me no tylenol a long time ago. there's an ingredient in it called acidif(can't spell it) look for that in all medicine u buy, is one thing.i think it's in IBprofen. then eat what this video says to help heal. no drinking..
I have had my gallbladder removed and I am trying to work out a path to better total health. I in my 25 got the entire bad gut bacteria cycle that your talking about in your videos and it had effects that I am now trying to tackle.
Extremely helpful video. Ive used TUDCA in the past to clean out my liver and i experienced a complete reversal in my chronic eczema, this is also due in part also to eliminating a bunch of junk calories i was eating at the time like soda and candy (knocked out most of sugars). Its funny that you listed Prednisone as an extremely toxic drug for the liver because when my Eczema would flare of extremely bad that what i would get prescribed and ironically it only masked the symptoms for a week or two at the most. Another thing i noticed taking the TUDCA is that my Vitiligo patches started re-pigmentation. At one point my hands were about 50% covered with this patches. Now you barely notice and i would say i only have about 5% discoloration remaining. I may need to do another month cycle of TUDCA to see if i can get it down even more. Two ingredients that i was surprised that didn't make your list are Tumeric and Blackseed oil. I've used two ingredient to marvelous affect for keeping a handle on my autoimmune disorders that are completely under control now, Eczema, Food allergies, and Asthma.
@@mspinchey Dr. Berg has done videos on TUDCA. I would recommend going to his main channel page and hitting the search button and typing TUDCA. Basically is a form bile that helps your liver clean it self out better and cycle out the toxins that might be getting stored in there.
And remember, there's little to no point cleansing your liver if you're bombarding it with junk on a day-to-day basis 😉, so be mindful to avoid nasty chemicals (ex. pesticides, BPA) to the best of your ability! Thanks Dr. Berg! Another great video!
~Im not sure i agree that theres no point in cleansing if the diet doesnt change~It seems doing one important thing is far better than none~Of course doing everything right is always best, but better some than none!~

I am a Dr. Berg binge nut, Thanks again. I am feeling so much better thanks to all of your, “fasting” & “healthy keto” videos. I was diagnosed with Graves’ Disease and your videos have Really helped me❗️🙂
wow ! the connection between the liver and the thyroïde, that is amazing. I did not know that thanxs to your videos I am helping my doctor to help me now !!! you are amazing !! thank you so much !🙏🙏🙏
Jesus, it is unbelievable the amount of information you put in these videos mixed with a decent level of medical factual explanation so it is accessible to anyone but it still emphasizes the scientific skeleton. Much appreciated.
Your knowledge is intensive and valuable to us uninformed masses.You're generocity in sharing factual life ultering information (not usually explained) is stunning, appreciated and empowering. I applaud your example of what effective practitioner's impact re optimal health for all. Thank you !!
Very helpful, and so interesting. Thank you. I am diabetic type 2, have had fatty liver. But I have also had my gall bladder removed some years ago. I am wondering what difference this makes to my overall approach to liver health. Should I be doing anything more because of this? I weigh under 60Kg, female, 70 yo. Also have peripheral neuropathy.
Yes! Our ancestors, parents, grandparents, etc, ate the healthy foods...and lived 80-90+ years! But now we have to be careful bec there is a lot of dangers in our foods be seafoods, be vegetables, meat processed, etc...most of it are contaminated with chemical...this we must be alert of the kind of foods we ate.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Avoid non nutritional filler- does it contain vitamins and minerals? No? Its non nutritional filler and is the same as adding muddy water to your gasoline. Processed food (means that literally, toxic stuff has been added while nutrition has been removed) and food removed more than one step from it's harvested state. If it doesn't fit these categories, then it's likely to be ok to consume. Beer, hfcs sugary sodas, carbs, confections, drugs, prepackaged stuff like sandwich meat hotdogs, meat from a can, store bought milk, psuedo juice drinks, fake cheeses= non foods= takes more or close to more energy to digest than what's obtained. The rest has varying degrees of benefits but generally isn't outright detrimental - exceptions being nutritious food infused with poisons. Thank Codex Alimentarius for allowing forever chemicals to be used around our food products again 😒 Clean unfloridated well water, properly handled raw milk from a happy cow fed on grass, juice straight from the fruit makes for a happy gut. All of which I've done, none of which ive done in the last 2 Year's and 100% why I'm laying around watching tv now, thinking about my liver and feeling like a loaded crap vessel, instead of participating in real life...🤦🏼♂️
You have really explained the benefits of not having sugar in my diet. I stopped about 3 weeks ago and I feel so much better. It’s amazing how fast you see really quick benefits. I’m also giving up grains, they are harmful just like sugar. I’m starting to do my own baking with almond Flour and stevia again. I’m trying to think of what I can replace for my cereal in the morning that’s easy to prepare. I’m so glad Doctors like you are available to the public. Thanks for your concern. I’m ordering that Q10 today. I never knew it was so important for better health.
Chia pudding is a good replacement for cereal. I use dates for sweeteners instead of maple syrup which most call for. They are much more nutritious than any other sweetener out there. In moderation of course.
Thank you so much Doctor Berge. I had the Gallstone surgery and NO ONE (my doctoa and surgeons) explained all of this in depth. They just said to avoid avocado and after surgery I can go back and eat normally...not even checking anything! I will introduce most of these foods now.❤Thank you Doc!
Living in the Philippines pollution and alcohol consumption are detrimental to many living here, but Dr Berg explains what causes and what helps ,,now it's up to me to live a healthy lifestyle thanks for the knowledge Dr.
I am going to create a diet plan based around these foods. I am just turned 30 and have seen 4 teams of specialists who gave me the horrible news that my liver is almost completely failed. "You are going to die." was said to me by every nurse. doctor and hospitalist. I refuse to die. thank you so much for this video.
Dr Berg is a life saver, thanks for all you do for our health. Liver health is crucial for overall health. Green leafy veggies are important for a healthy diet. They are high in vitamins, minerals and fibre while also being low in calories. I love to consume these greens in form of salads, green smoothies and juices. These foods can help us look and feel younger, as well as age gracefully. Also lots of people drink coffee everyday to help rev them up in the morning.
Just about the same what mr. Paul Bragg wrote in his books about what to eat after water fasting for releasing toxins from liver and gallbladder -- universal truths which will never ever change! ❤️
🤔 I am a Sickle Cell Anemia Disease patient OFF OF TYLENOL #4 WITH CODEINE for about FOUR YEARS TO DATE maybe even five years. I had a pain tolerance that was controlled by up to 200 tablets per month. I'M LUCKY TO HAVE A LIVER AND BOTH MY KIDNEYS. It has been a great struggle towards my 2023 health recovery. Your videos helped me to understand BEYOND my SUPER FANTASTIC doctors who have KEPT ME ALIVE to enjoy life everyday. Thank you...Dr. Berg!
Dr Berg, you mentioned that ‘soy isolate’ is hard on the liver. I ‘love my soy milk’! As I don’t drink dairy. I find that I fill up with congestion (mucous), in the sinus, throat one respiratory tract, cough a lot and have joint pain after any dairy. Can you recommend a ‘creamy milk substitute that is healthy and good for the liver’? Thank you 🙏
Dr Eric Berg...eggs only work properly if the embryo film is not broken while heating(examples over easy,sunny side up,hard fried or boiled/poached). The cholesterol molecularity is changed when oxidized during cooking process with heat. Great study on this! I would love for you to do a program on how this works if you find the time. Thank You for your help as always!
I need to start a platform for homeless people. I have been residing in a car for more than 5 years yet I remain Super healthy because I found a way to consume some of these things. I’m so blessed. The shame of it is EVERYTHING and EVERYONE offering this great opportunity to remain healthy has a focus only on people who are stable. Pray for me I WILL create a channel for the less fortunate. THANK YOU FOR EDUCATING ME. I AM paying attention no matter the circumstance 🙏🏻👍👍❤️
You might not need prayers, just perspective. These folks provide a channel with good advice that streams to the masses, including you. You say "stable" that word is vast in meaning. Stable meaning financially stable? I'm here. I need your input. I thought you were about to share what you did in your comment to stay healthy. I was intrigued. Take the jump to care and share what you know. The audience you reach may amaze you. Freely share please. As you share you will be motivated to gather and record what you know. ❤️ Thanks!
Break the curse of poverty in your family side, your mother side and also your father side going back to Adan and Eve generations. Buy a Bible and read the promise that God has for us! I will pray for you the Holy Spirt guide you!
You say certain medication. Which ones. I also have extremely high blood pressure. Been hospitalized twice in last six months. More meds were added. I started to shake uncontrollably and knew it was the meds. I went to bed. Drank nothing but water for a week. BP actually went down. Added clonidine and Lisinopril hctz. It's fluctuating between high and very low. Changed my diet to eating fresh fruits and vegetables only for a week. Now , thankfully, I found your video and will follow it to the letter. Thank you so much.
Indian goose berry helping me to a great extent to ease my liver complaints. I will follow the other foods u have suggested . Thank u so much Dr. Berg 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks Doc. I have a fatty liver and have been suffering for a very long time. I've suffered hair loss and also used to have those shoulder/back pain you were referring too. I love salad so will definitely start looking at salad as a staple diet. Thanks again!
Ya but you can get organic 🥬 kale & cabbage at just about any market for $1.99 and you can get turmeric w was not mentioned I eat it straight from the root it's maybe 5-6$ a lbs at whole foods just limit it they can get organic greens for salad by organic girl at Ralph's or most produce sections 3.99$ so if you look it's easy to find organic greens. Aldi has organic broccoli 🥦 zucchini ,green beans for a decent price
Thank Doc I received a diagnosis of PCOS and given very limited ways to manage it from my Dr but am so so grateful for all your excellent advice!! Honestly I watch all your posts. I just love you the Dr Oz of the net!!! Keep it up we all love you
My utmost appreciation to Dr. Berg for his eye-opening and educational and informative lectures on foods that are beneficial to our health and well-being. I particularly love the health benefits of lemons and apple cider vinegar. Thank you Doctor.
Thank You Dr Berg…I’m doing most ‘right’…but a few things ‘wrong’. I’m inspired to do a fast today ♥️ I have done a gall bladder / liver cleanse (in the past) & probably due for another one. Out of curiosity…. What should people do if they’re had their gall bladder removed? I’m so frustrated with ‘sick friends’. That do nothing proactive for their health. I’m at the point now, that I’m Not wasting my breath … but will direct them to your videos ( in hopes 👍that they will watch.
I suffered for 2 years with a bad gall bladder. I had every symptom of gall bladder disease. I live in a very small rural community and most of the doctors here, well let's say; it's not Houston, but we do have a small hospital, which is a plus. They have very good, caring nurses. It took 5 hida scans before the duct was blocked and I could get it taken out. They sent me to Hermann in Houston, but I really suffered and I got up and went to school to teach . My gall bladder was full of bile sludge! That "ordeal" was the beginning of the end of my good health. I've been taking D3 with K2 and magnesium for years because I taught 4 year olds and they were always sickkkkk!

I've started eating salads six days a week. This week, I've started eating Caesar salads with homemade Caesar salad dressing, which contains EVOO, MCT oil, ACV, lemon juice, lemon zest, anchovies, garlic, egg yolks, Dijon mustard, sundried tomatoes, basil pesto, and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. It's so good, and I'm still consistently losing weight! I'm down 60 lbs in just under 5 months!
Awesome 👏
Honestly that sounds so much better than any salad I ever made my entire life. Congratulations.
Is this Keto?
Can you share recipe thx
Good on you but That dressing sounds disgusting lol oily fish with cheese is a big no no.

Sprouts means grains right? In how many videos have we seen the advice of not to eat grains…!!!!!!!!
@@Dj12325 No, they are talking about veg... radish sprouts, broccoli etc.
That’s great except for when you have issues with oxalates and have fatty liver. What do I do then?
@@brodie9824 lemon juice
@Brodie carnivore high fat with lemon? I have SIBO and many things kill my intestines, so high animal fats and high meat with Waterloo lemon/lime is nice.
My liver was actually in deep trouble, I was eating too much sugar salt and processed foods, I stopped and ate extremely healthy and was able to reverse my liver damage
It took approximately 4 weeks of healthy eating and fasting
Did you have any liver pain?
@@holysock2565 No
I had hives, but no more
@@Peekaboo-Kitty I meant sugar and salt, you have to eat all natural food without any extra taste
And my doctor had the nerve to tell me there wasn’t a connection between the liver and my thyroid! We really have to educate ourselves when it comes to our health! Thank you for yours videos Doctor! 🙏🏽
My doctor told me same thing. I'd rather watch Dr Bergs videos instead of seeing my doctor
Most doctors really don't have a clue how the body works, my daughter was in medical school, I think they spent about 2 hours total studying nutrition
@@haaken-hj2gh no more than 10 hrs of study, so true.
Sadly all of us women need to really educate ourselves on health issues ❗In my experience Doctors don't really care about women's health, and in California you can hardly get a Doctor, because our State has so many Illegals, and they come first of course!
I'm currently experiencing the pain around the shoulder and the under the rib cage about 3 months from now

Yes we are fearfully and wonderfully made!
I have to tell you that your information has improved my health drastically. I had severe intestinal issues that prevented me from working full time. My job was stressful due to the way it was operated, so Cortosal was an issue. My first Dr appointment they sent me home with an anacid & antidepressent. I don't like pills. Also I have just about every other detriment you've listed as being a deterrent to weight lost , Post Menapasal , I had Thyroid Cancer at 18 y/o old & my gallbladder removed in 2019 at age 63. I still felt terrible; after the gallbladder surgery & everyone around me just said it was part of getting old. I stumbled across your videos & Oh Boy did the education you provide change my life. I started Keto around the 1st of July. I feel fantastic I lost 21 lbs of fat, I enjoy cooking for the 1st time in my life. I introduced Intermittent fasting in August after learning more about & comprehending blood test results. I know that the glucose in my blood was high after having given up bread , rice & noodles 10 years ago & still I suffered and gained weight even though I thought I had removed all my carbs. The ones I hadn't addressed until June (because I didn't check, due to denial) I was a nonfat milkaholic. I consumed 2 gallons of non-fat milk every week. That is 416 carbs now add the graham crackers that I used to soak of that constant acid and satisfy my constant hunger for another 624 carbs. Also I was instructed that in order to help with my constipation I should consume a bowl of steel cut oats with fruit, for another 217 carbs. That was 159 carbs over my 20 allowed in a day. They have been other addictions that I shed along my way to a much healthier productive lifestyle. I just want to thank you so very much. I got rid of those prescribed medicines after a month because as I shared with my Doctor I don't trust Big Pharma & don't believe they have my best interests at heart. I've seen all the smears, & man you must be pure because such lame smears they were. I think you've done a great job & contributed so much wonderful essential information. I can't afford your gallbladder supplements but my Daughter just ordered some for me because I do have the sludgey bile & I can't wait to see the improvement once I'm able to process those fat soluble vitamins & minerals. I just wish I would have asked my Daughter sooner. I go to the Doctor on Monday & I am excited to see the difference in my blood. Thank you again, I wish I had more to contribute than my obvious gratitude and admiration of your contribution to this crazy world.
Wow, wonderful story thanks for sharing and best wishes!

I’m so glad that I found your channel! Finally, a Doc who cares about both! God bless you, Doc! Thank you for making these videos!
Vicious circle...you aren't wrong!!!
The TV has killed this country.
@jossfangirl The TV? More like the unholy alliances between Big Pharma, BigTech, BigFood, and BigGovt! The TV is just one of many of their delivery mechanisms.
Dr. Berg is the Best only Dr. I have trusted in 12 years
His voice is so comforting. Does anyone else fall asleep at bedtime listening to him?
Yep😂
I'm not joking about this but this has been one of the most helpful videos I have ever seen
Lemon is good for your liver AND it's good for your kidneys too! I learned from this channel that kidney stones get broken down by drinking lemon and lime juice. Lime juice helped me get rid of my kidney stone. I like to drink lemon or lime juice now and then so I never get one again. A lot of women that have had kids say that kidney stones can be WORSE than giving birth.
Tapi klo ada aslam gk boleh meminumnya
Dr Berg, thank you🙏🏻❤️. You are saving lives! I’ve completely change my life since I’m watching your videos. My mom passed from liver cancer, and my dad from kidney failure. Unfortunately they both had very unhealthy lifestyles and diets. I’m turning it all around. Proudly reporting that I do 80% of what you’re video shows. Still have a lot more to go. Switching to organic vegetables and fruits, and need to have a green juice daily. I started making my Sauerkraut every two weeks ( 5 cabbage) that I eat every day. No sugar at all, only lemon water, no alcohol, very small amount of carbs, ( bread) that I make( no preservatives like store bought). Thank you🙏🏻❤️ so much for turning my life around. I still have a lot to change by I’m on a good path. Gratitude 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
do you drink lemon water every day or every time you thirsty?

Make sourdough bread. It is way less inflammatory than regular bread. Big improvement for me!! Peace and health to you!

Dear Dr. Berg. I had a fatty liver that was affecting my thyroid levels and I started loosing skin color, created by white patches, also known as Vitiligo. The vitiligo spread to both hands and my groin area. At first I went go see a skin doctor, then I was referred to my general doctor to check my thyroid. I also had neck pains and visited the chiropractor. SURPRISINGLY, it was your video regarding the cleansing of a fatty liver that help me removed the white spots on my hand and reduced it by 50%. I lost 20 pounds eventually, gain energy and the neck pains were gone. Please let me know where I can send you photos of my hand. Vitiligo doesn't really have a cure and I believe a lot of people are not aware that it all starts at the liver. I had used multiple creams, with no results, even my skin doctor is surprised.... Thank you for all your help. Elkin Cabrera
Liver? I got vitiligo at age 3. I have no known liver issues. Vitiligo is often genetic.
I developed vitiligo, my natural Dr told me my liver needed attention and the skin is showing it. Thanks. Can you share specifics on what you did
Can you please help me?
Like King David said “ I am wonderfully made” …..The body truly is amazing. Each member has a role to play.
Everyone isn't King David, and I'm pretty sure he was talking about his spirit.
As someone who suffered for years from long-standing liver and gallbladder dysfunction, I now eat all these foods regularly and avoid sugar (including most fruit), avoid all plant seed oils, processed foods, and insulinemic foods. I eat mainly high-fat beef steak and vegetables (steamed or fried in animal fats like tallow) and feel great again. I believe that supplementing daily with a high quality B-Complex (containing Choline, Benfotiamine, and Methylcobalamin), Betaine-HCL, TUDCA, Vitamin D3 (with K2), and Cod Liver Oil has also helped to restore my liver function to optimal levels. I also do a 48 hour water fast once per week.
Wow! That is awesome you cured your live. Can you please tell me do you take Betaine HCL and Tudka together and how much do you take in a day! I have no gall bladder and recently started having a lot of digestive issues with digesting fats and anything I eat!
@@NansGlobalKitchen I take one 500mg Betaine-HCL and 250mg TUDCA together with every meal. I also take 500mg-750mg of TUDCA with a large glass of water on an empty stomach, just before bed, every 3-4 days.
Please note that when i first started treating the sludge that was filling my liver and gall ducts, i took 1000mg of TUDCA on an empty stomach, twice a day (before bed and early morninhg) for an entire month. This was to thin the sludge that was backing-up the ducts.
Hi Milton - what brand of B complex do you take?
@@keramel413 AOR. It's the best, by far. But I'm in Canada, so it may not be available in the US, if that's where you are located.

You are a life-saver and so gifted in explaining health issues. Just started listening to your videos on the liver. For 25 years I've experienced all of the symptoms you're describing and you are the first medical expert to connect it all to my liver and how I've been destroying it! Thank you for clarifying the issue and presenting me with a clear plan. Just filled the trash can with all the garbage I've been eating. Now headed to the grocery store to start over and follow every suggestion. God bless you.
How's it going Trudy?
Keep going! You can do it! Try and grow some of your own foods too ❤

I was just diagnosed with fatty Liver and I have many symptoms you mentioned. I eat better than most, but I do have HBP, fatigue, thin skin that bruises easily and tears easily, feet and ankles itching! I love cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli and I juice vegetables in the summer. This has been so informative and helpful. Thank you for your life saving information!
Cut out grains, wheat, sugar, processed food. Intermittent fast for 16 hours, eat 1-2 meals in 8 hours. Repeat daily.
I had grade 1 non alcoholic fatty liver but completely cure it through diet and exercise.
My Uncle was a life long alcoholic that quit drinking cold turkey after the Doctor said his death was imminent due to a failing liver. His liver made a complete recovery.
Astounding
Wow. That’s an amazing story. Gives me hope. I had hepatitis c and cleared it. Stage 3 fibrosis. I get pain on my right side often.
Amazing how the body really can heal if one just gives up the junk.
That is AWESOME! All the best. 👏🙏
@@nicolecocoxoxo same thing with me. The pain on the right side? What is it?
AS I've said in prior videos, Thank you! I am 2 months into keto diet.... clean one. I started with just meat all organic farm raised no corn or antibiotics. My 25 yr.old daughter has been eating 5 times a week with me. We both only eat one meal for last 14 days with cabbage or broccoli and 6 oz of meat and half of a cauliflower roasted no real starch. Watrr, tea no sugar coffee black and tumeric, ginger, cinnamon, tea combo 2 times a day. Also the c,d,zinc,magnisum, codliveroil,and b vitamins. I add Clove to my teas, for hot flashes. She started a regular cycle for first time in 8 months. And my feet and side are no longer hurting. Thankyou. Thank you thank you
I have had constipation for years. I literally can check off every symptom for a bad liver, including edema now. I went to the doctors so many times regarding this. I had one doctor that told me to just eat tons of cream of wheat. Then I had another that said I just need to lower my cholesterol. I showed them my swollen ankles, told them about pain in my lower back and pain on the front right side near my belly button. I told them about my itchy skin and how my I was losing my hair. Not one doctor mentioned anything about my liver. When I told the doctor about my constant of constipation, they gave me a medication that was supposed to encourage me to go. I need to change my life immediately.
You need to change your doctor
Hello dear change of diet is the beat. I had cholesterol but didn't know that my liver was affected. Used to feel nausea, instead of belching I used to fart alot, anytime any where. My sight was affected. I started eating too much and urinating too much, suddenly I checked my sugar and found it was high. Am not diabetic, but fasting was 12.0mmols! I started on diet and wishing 2 weeks I felt better. No more farting, clear vision,no nausea, alot more has changed. So dieting is the way to go. All swelling and pain will go. All the best.
Adding fresh lemon juice to kale and then massage it like you are kneading bread. It breaks it down so that it’s easier to digest - plus, it helps it taste sweeter. It helps to remove the bitterness of the kale.
It tastes soooo much better, you will absorb more nutrients and have less bloating. 🎉
Thank you...

Yup. Many doctors don’t help you stay healthy and live a healthier lifestyle. They don’t focus at all on nutrition. They just want to give you pills. I chose my PCP because the first thing he said to me five years ago at our first visit was …. You are too fat!!! I gave out a sigh of relief. 😂 He was surprised that I didn’t get angry.

@@DrbergDr. What happens when with bile when you have no gall bladder? What do people like us do?
Thanks for your answer.
@@Drberg watching your videos has been both eye opening and sad for me, I watched the video about the feet, then the ones about what to and not to eat for the liver... my gallbladder was removed in 2006, sadly I could have avoided the procedure if the care providers that noticed I was growing stones in it, when they were doing an ultrasound to make sure my uterus was clean after my miscarriage, had made a better effort to make me or my husband aware of it, giving the painful circumstances we were facing at the moment. But instead I found out 15 years later as I unburied and read the documents from that day that I had gallstones... I am learning now that I probably should have been taking bile salts, long time ago, I can see my problems steam from the prednisone (I didn’t take it too long because it wrecked havoc in me), antibiotics... all you can imagine and more (I have no teeth left of my own, thank God, I was able to get transplants) I was diagnosed with pharestisia (not sure spelled it right) and probably wasn't, as you mentioned the pain in the right side of the neck and shoulder, my left foot has been numbed on and off for a while, sometimes I get this horrible sharp pains, I'm having the tightness under my bust, have psoriasis in my head, ears, legs and nails, I feel supertired all the time to the point I take naps, lost all my flexibility... Anxiety...Gained out of the blue over 10 pounds in a snap of my fingers, I'm trying to put together a map of my health and all you've talked about to try and pinpoint how bad it is... But believe me, as bad as it sounds I just push through like nothing is going on.
I started to apply Dr. Berg's information since May this year. In three months I lost 25lbs (180 to 155). I am 64 and my body looks like in my early 20s' with 6 pax. Thank you Dr. Berg.
Now you can bulk up on healthy foods and live a stronger, healthier life. (If you so choose
How?
By doing what the doctor tells you to do : green salads, fresh drinks from vegetable, and so on... Look at rhe list here above and start doing it.. You will see how fast you are losing fat and weight... Do it instead of talking about it.. Wish you all the best!!!

Dr. Berg is a GENIUS. Watching these videos are helping me to understand more about the liver and make better choices for my health. Many thanks
This is good advice. My mom's liver failure was caught very late. Controlling her diet was key to giving her some good years during her last few. I can tell you that if you take a lot of Tylenol, have diabetes or crave sweets and eat mostly processed food - YOU NEED TO CONSIDER your LIVER. Liver failure is a really bad illness to confront and alcohol is not its only cause. You change your trajectory easily if you look after yourself early.
This is an amazing comment.
Thank you for your testimony 🙏🏽♥️
tylenol is full of paracetamol YUCK , by the time you realise 5/7ths of your liver is gone .. this is why it has a limit of 2 grams a day in medicines
I have a family member who was just diagnosed with nonalcoholic liver cirrhosis. What did you do for your Mom which helped the most? I am determined to help my family member to get through this with good quality of life.
@@debjo788 For her physical health:Try to keep to the diet that they gave you and stay on the meds. One of the meds is a laxative but it helps the most. There is a new drug DT-109 but I know nothing about it. Most importantly spend as much time as you can. On good days, go out and do something fun. Be sure to ask her all the questions you ever had. Say "I love you" every day. They told me my mom had about a year, we gave her over 3 good years. Bless your heart.
Dr Berg needs more than 8 million subscribers. This channel is an essential imo for anything health related! I Don't trust anything that's put out regarding health until i've seen it on this channel
One of the BEST liver videos!! We really need a “liver” emoji to celebrate this miraculous organ. One question, will DIM help the liver as well since it is cruciferous?
I've had my thyroid and my gall bladder removed! My poor liver. Thank you Dr. Berg.
I'm sorry to hear about your challenges, but glad that my insights have been helpful. Wishing you the best in your health journey.
Dr. Berg
I will be 76 in a few days. I retired at age 70 and 3 months later found I had stage 4 colorectal cancer. I also had a extremely large tumor around my left kidney and that type of cancer I can't pronounce but did not respond to treatment so they had to get it all the first time. Luckily they did get it all. After the smoke settled I was left with one kidney and an ostomy bag At about three years through my chemo treatments I had to have my gal bladder removed. After almost 5 years and 107 chemo therapy treatments I am still here. I quit the chemo about 6 months ago and am in observation mode now with no cancer at this time I was told it could come back at anytime but so far so good.
I have been watching your videos for some time now and recently heard you mention how bile works but I have no gall bladder so I guess I don't digest fats very well. I also have slid into type 2 diabetes along with everything else. It would be great if you could someday do a video with more information to help us who have no gall bladder. Possible supplements?? I am also on blood thinner (Eliquis) so I may have reactions to some drugs or supplements.
Thanks, Dennis

This is the closest YT content get to be a "public service". Awesome Dr. Berg. Big thanks from another one who you've helped a lot. Cheers
I knew an elderly retired lithographer married to an RN. She told him to start his own print shop.
So, early he opened and liked to have a cup of tea. He was from one of the Caribbean islands.
He told me he dad a urinary problem.
One day a woman customer came to his shop and brought him a box of Viking corn muffins.
He ate one with his tea and told me the corn muffin stopped his frequent urination. He lived in Brooklyn, NY.
2 years ago I was experiencing a gout flare and I didn't have any meds or anything to help reduce the pain. This lovely woman who I met on a plane to California told me to drink 100% cherry juice. And when I did, the gout was going away almost immediately. There's medicine in real food.
OMG, I am so appreciative of Dr. Berg for pointing out right shoulder back pain, I have had it for years, and massaging only helps a little. I'm going to take care of my liver, I hope these diet change will also improve my dry eye issues, they say liver and eyes are correlated!

How do I get milk thistle in my diet, Dr Berg? What part of the plant should I eat?
@@grandwonder5858 I have the same question because I have Antibodies and on high dose of medication and was wondering how to take the Milkthistle herb?
This is timely. We were in a bad accident and my husband has a few fractures, lacerated spleen and bruised liver. They gave him a trauma cocktail with Tylenol and treated his pain with Tylenol. About a week later his liver enzymes were high. He isn’t taking Tylenol anymore. But I’m hoping to reverse any damage if possible.
Start taking NAC 600mg. along with with vitamin C 500 mg. (To reduce the NAC) 3x daily while injured and once a day for life it will help prevent free radicals by being the precursor to glutathione. Okay to take with ALL Rx medications that I'm aware of check insert if you're on anything obscure.
Retired Rph. Good luck 🙏🏻
my doc told me no tylenol a long time ago. there's an ingredient in it called acidif(can't spell it) look for that
in all medicine u buy, is one thing.i think it's in IBprofen. then eat what this video says to help heal.
no drinking..
I wish this was taught in schools 🙏🏻

Extremely helpful video. Ive used TUDCA in the past to clean out my liver and i experienced a complete reversal in my chronic eczema, this is also due in part also to eliminating a bunch of junk calories i was eating at the time like soda and candy (knocked out most of sugars). Its funny that you listed Prednisone as an extremely toxic drug for the liver because when my Eczema would flare of extremely bad that what i would get prescribed and ironically it only masked the symptoms for a week or two at the most. Another thing i noticed taking the TUDCA is that my Vitiligo patches started re-pigmentation. At one point my hands were about 50% covered with this patches. Now you barely notice and i would say i only have about 5% discoloration remaining. I may need to do another month cycle of TUDCA to see if i can get it down even more.
Two ingredients that i was surprised that didn't make your list are Tumeric and Blackseed oil. I've used two ingredient to marvelous affect for keeping a handle on my autoimmune disorders that are completely under control now, Eczema, Food allergies, and Asthma.
How much Tudca do you take and how often? Details, please. Thanks!
@@mspinchey Dr. Berg has done videos on TUDCA. I would recommend going to his main channel page and hitting the search button and typing TUDCA. Basically is a form bile that helps your liver clean it self out better and cycle out the toxins that might be getting stored in there.
Tudca what brand how to use please
I want to know what kind tudca do you take
Where can I get tudca?
نتمنى عليك ان تنصحنا عن مرض العقيدات او الكييسات على الغدة الدرقية كيف نعالجها بالغذاء مع الشكر الجزيل لك .
And remember, there's little to no point cleansing your liver if you're bombarding it with junk on a day-to-day basis 😉, so be mindful to avoid nasty chemicals (ex. pesticides, BPA) to the best of your ability!
Thanks Dr. Berg! Another great video!
True. Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting are *always* Steps 1a & 1b.
@@Truth15freedom yes, indeed! Fructose has been shown to lead to fatty liver!
@@Cosmo-Kramer diet should ALWAYS come first!
@@Truth15freedom yeah especially since its in everything now a days
~Im not sure i agree that theres no point in cleansing if the diet doesnt change~It seems doing one important thing is far better than none~Of course doing everything right is always best, but better some than none!~
I had all the symptoms with my enlarged liver. You are an expert at what you do.
How are u now? Hope u feel better. What and what are u taking?

wow ! the connection between the liver and the thyroïde, that is amazing. I did not know that thanxs to your videos I am helping my doctor to help me now !!! you are amazing !! thank you so much !🙏🙏🙏
Jesus, it is unbelievable the amount of information you put in these videos mixed with a decent level of medical factual explanation so it is accessible to anyone but it still emphasizes the scientific skeleton. Much appreciated.
Your knowledge is intensive and valuable to us uninformed masses.You're generocity in sharing factual life ultering information (not usually explained) is stunning, appreciated and empowering. I applaud your example of what effective practitioner's impact re optimal health for all. Thank you !!
Very helpful, and so interesting. Thank you. I am diabetic type 2, have had fatty liver. But I have also had my gall bladder removed some years ago. I am wondering what difference this makes to my overall approach to liver health. Should I be doing anything more because of this? I weigh under 60Kg, female, 70 yo. Also have peripheral neuropathy.
I can't thank you enough Doc. Blessings.
Love all of this! Dr. Berg is truly saving lives and Doctor bills 😅

Pretty much everything I ate, which my grandpa taught me. He lived to 98 and worked until the last three weeks of his life.
Yes! Our ancestors, parents, grandparents, etc, ate the healthy foods...and lived 80-90+ years! But now we have to be careful bec there is a lot of dangers in our foods be seafoods, be vegetables, meat processed, etc...most of it are contaminated with chemical...this we must be alert of the kind of foods we ate.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
wow!! Yes That's excellent! yeah my gran is 96 and still in fine fettle through here old fashioned low fat healthy ways!
Avoid non nutritional filler- does it contain vitamins and minerals? No?
Its non nutritional filler and is the same as adding muddy water to your gasoline.
Processed food (means that literally, toxic stuff has been added while nutrition has been removed) and food removed more than one step from it's harvested state.
If it doesn't fit these categories, then it's likely to be ok to consume.
Beer, hfcs sugary sodas, carbs, confections, drugs, prepackaged stuff like sandwich meat hotdogs, meat from a can, store bought milk, psuedo juice drinks, fake cheeses= non foods= takes more or close to more energy to digest than what's obtained.
The rest has varying degrees of benefits but generally isn't outright detrimental - exceptions being nutritious food infused with poisons. Thank Codex Alimentarius for allowing forever chemicals to be used around our food products again 😒
Clean unfloridated well water, properly handled raw milk from a happy cow fed on grass, juice straight from the fruit makes for a happy gut.
All of which I've done, none of which ive done in the last 2 Year's and 100% why I'm laying around watching tv now, thinking about my liver and feeling like a loaded crap vessel, instead of participating in real life...🤦🏼♂️
@@dont.ripfuller6587 : That's funny.
You have really explained the benefits of not having sugar in my diet. I stopped about 3 weeks ago and I feel so much better. It’s amazing how fast you see really quick benefits. I’m also giving up grains, they are harmful just like sugar. I’m starting to do my own baking with almond Flour and stevia again. I’m trying to think of what I can replace for my cereal in the morning that’s easy to prepare. I’m so glad Doctors like you are available to the public. Thanks for your concern.
I’m ordering that Q10 today. I never knew it was so important for better health.
Be careful with almond oil as it is very inflammatory and is not good for kidney and thyroid function.
Chia pudding is a good replacement for cereal. I use dates for sweeteners instead of maple syrup which most call for. They are much more nutritious than any other sweetener out there. In moderation of course.
What are the ingredients for the pudding?
Thank you so much Doctor Berge. I had the Gallstone surgery and NO ONE (my doctoa and surgeons) explained all of this in depth. They just said to avoid avocado and after surgery I can go back and eat normally...not even checking anything! I will introduce most of these foods now.❤Thank you Doc!
They said my gall bladder was ready to blow up and HAD to be removed.. I wasn’t told anything else except don’t eat for 24 hrs only fluids ..
Dandelion is also useful for the liver, and triphala. But you covered the most important plants for the liver. Thanks, Dr Berg.
Glad to help!

A Chinese medicine doctor told me this years ago. He said dandelion greens is one of the best things for the liver.

Thank you ⛄
Fatty liver is caused by carbs & sugars in the body - dr. Robert Lustig.
Dr Berg is a life saver, thanks for all you do for our health. Liver health is crucial for overall health. Green leafy veggies are important for a healthy diet. They are high in vitamins, minerals and fibre while also being low in calories. I love to consume these greens in form of salads, green smoothies and juices. These foods can help us look and feel younger, as well as age gracefully. Also lots of people drink coffee everyday to help rev them up in the morning.
I've just re watched this video from 1 yr ago.
Brilliant, sensible, factual delivery! Again thank you. 😊 😊
Just about the same what mr. Paul Bragg wrote in his books about what to eat after water fasting for releasing toxins from liver and gallbladder -- universal truths which will never ever change! ❤️
🤔 I am a Sickle Cell Anemia Disease patient OFF OF TYLENOL #4 WITH CODEINE for about FOUR YEARS TO DATE maybe even five years. I had a pain tolerance that was controlled by up to 200 tablets per month.
I'M LUCKY TO HAVE A LIVER AND BOTH MY KIDNEYS. It has been a great struggle towards my 2023 health recovery.
Your videos helped me to understand BEYOND my SUPER FANTASTIC doctors who have KEPT ME ALIVE to enjoy life everyday.
Thank you...Dr. Berg!
All the best Warrior ❤
A simple thanks says it all. 🙏🏾
Dr Berg, you mentioned that ‘soy isolate’ is hard on the liver. I ‘love my soy milk’! As I don’t drink dairy. I find that I fill up with congestion (mucous), in the sinus, throat one respiratory tract, cough a lot and have joint pain after any dairy. Can you recommend a ‘creamy milk substitute that is healthy and good for the liver’? Thank you 🙏
Dr Eric Berg...eggs only work properly if the embryo film is not broken while heating(examples over easy,sunny side up,hard fried or boiled/poached). The cholesterol molecularity is changed when oxidized during cooking process with heat. Great study on this! I would love for you to do a program on how this works if you find the time. Thank You for your help as always!
I need to start a platform for homeless people. I have been residing in a car for more than 5 years yet I remain Super healthy because I found a way to consume some of these things. I’m so blessed. The shame of it is EVERYTHING and EVERYONE offering this great opportunity to remain healthy has a focus only on people who are stable. Pray for me I WILL create a channel for the less fortunate. THANK YOU FOR EDUCATING ME. I AM paying attention no matter the circumstance 🙏🏻👍👍❤️
You might not need prayers, just perspective. These folks provide a channel with good advice that streams to the masses, including you. You say "stable" that word is vast in meaning. Stable meaning financially stable? I'm here. I need your input. I thought you were about to share what you did in your comment to stay healthy. I was intrigued. Take the jump to care and share what you know. The audience you reach may amaze you.
Freely share please. As you share you will be motivated to gather and record what you know. ❤️ Thanks!
Break the curse of poverty in your family side, your mother side and also your father side going back to Adan and Eve generations. Buy a Bible and read the promise that God has for us! I will pray for you the Holy Spirt guide you!
Pain in rhomboids and neck……. EUREKA! Thank you Doctor, I’ve had pain in these areas off and on for years. I’m hitting the Best 7!
You say certain medication. Which ones. I also have extremely high blood pressure. Been hospitalized twice in last six months. More meds were added. I started to shake uncontrollably and knew it was the meds. I went to bed. Drank nothing but water for a week. BP actually went down. Added clonidine and Lisinopril hctz. It's fluctuating between high and very low. Changed my diet to eating fresh fruits and vegetables only for a week. Now , thankfully, I found your video and will follow it to the letter. Thank you so much.
Thank you Dr. Berg watching from Toronto following your advice I have lost 20lbs. I have 50lbs to go. You are a great teacher.
Indian goose berry helping me to a great extent to ease my liver complaints. I will follow the other foods u have suggested . Thank u so much Dr. Berg 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks Doc. I have a fatty liver and have been suffering for a very long time. I've suffered hair loss and also used to have those shoulder/back pain you were referring too. I love salad so will definitely start looking at salad as a staple diet.
Thanks again!
To eat lots of salad, you would have to eat organic otherwise aren't you getting insecticides that you don't want since it's not good for the liver?
Ya but you can get organic 🥬 kale & cabbage at just about any market for $1.99 and you can get turmeric w was not mentioned I eat it straight from the root it's maybe 5-6$ a lbs at whole foods just limit it they can get organic greens for salad by organic girl at Ralph's or most produce sections 3.99$ so if you look it's easy to find organic greens. Aldi has organic broccoli 🥦 zucchini ,green beans for a decent price
Just because they write the word organic on some things doesn't really make them organic at all. Alotta folks greedy. Becareful
@@FaithfulServant316 so true!!!!
Wait a second .. can fatty liver cause hair loss?
Thank Doc I received a diagnosis of PCOS and given very limited ways to manage it from my Dr but am so so grateful for all your excellent advice!! Honestly I watch all your posts. I just love you the Dr Oz of the net!!! Keep it up we all love you
My utmost appreciation to Dr. Berg for his eye-opening and educational and informative lectures on foods that are beneficial to our health and well-being. I particularly love the health benefits of lemons and apple cider vinegar. Thank you Doctor.
Thank You Dr Berg…I’m doing most ‘right’…but a few things ‘wrong’.
I’m inspired to do a fast today ♥️
I have done a gall bladder / liver cleanse (in the past) & probably due for another one.
Out of curiosity…. What should people do if they’re had their gall bladder removed? I’m so frustrated with ‘sick friends’. That do nothing proactive for their health. I’m at the point now, that I’m Not wasting my breath … but will direct them to your videos ( in hopes 👍that they will watch.
Any chance you could address best practices for those of us living without a gallbladder, please? Or are they the same as in this video?
I suffered for 2 years with a bad gall bladder. I had every symptom of gall bladder disease. I live in a very small rural community and most of the doctors here, well let's say; it's not Houston, but we do have a small hospital, which is a plus. They have very good, caring nurses. It took 5 hida scans before the duct was blocked and I could get it taken out. They sent me to Hermann in Houston, but I really suffered and I got up and went to school to teach . My gall bladder was full of bile sludge! That "ordeal" was the beginning of the end of my good health. I've been taking D3 with K2 and magnesium for years because I taught 4 year olds and they were always sickkkkk!
