Just found out im pregnant with my 1st child at 36 years old. Was already eating keto. Thanks for your wonderful and informative videos. Wishing & praying for a healthy pregnancy ❤ and healthy child.
Preeclampsia with 3 pregnancy 1) 6 month still born 2) born 1 month earlier. Ncu for 1 month. Alive and healthy 11 years old now 3) twins. Both born at 5weeks 6 days. 1 lived to 8 days. Was 14 oz and had brain bleed. The second was a 1 lb. Had cateract surgery, ulcers, and air respiratory even when sent home. Was in Ncu for 5 months. Happy and healthy now at age 6. But the thing about twins is I always am reminded about his sister that could be here too. I found out about Dr Berg only after my last pregnancy. But God do I wish I caught him sooner. Unlike the doctors at hospitals,. I consider him a REAL doctor.
Hi I'm so so sorry that you lost two babies but you did gain one beautiful baby... the Twins were both born at 5 weeks and 6 days how is that possible so you are one month pregnant and one week I'm just confused with that Dr. Berg is such a real doctor!!!
I’m so sorry the healthcare system failed you. It’s sad doctors aren’t as helpful as we think. I’m glad I found out about Dr. Berg too, happy Mother’s Day Love ❤️
Dr. Berg I’m so excited that you’re focusing on pregnancy in the upcoming videos! I’m planning to start a family in the upcoming year or two and I have so many questions on what to eat and also what supplements are and are not allowed. I’m 32 years old right now and have no kids. I know I’m a bit older for getting pregnant, so I want to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. Especially because I’m planning for a natural home birth with potentially a midwife. Right now I’m trying to work on my health first, and then once my health has been restored, I want the best for my pregnancy and unborn child. Your timing could not be better for me! Thank you 😊
Awesome. Homebirth is the way. Usually in hospital they would love to "vax" your newborn baby and also this sterile environment is not natural. Focus on eating animal foods and keeping your carbs low therefore you will have the right hormonal balance
Stay healthy, do not worry. I had our third the day after my fortieth. We call it our birthdays (her term originally: how touching.) We are making plans for her University attendance this term (it's fun buying stylish towels and kitchen utensils.) Not only is she genius level intellectually, she is gifted at art. Stunning looking as well. More beautiful than many in acting and modelling. Fabulous hair. Like her two brothers she is gifted in music. Watch your folic acid levels. Now I may be investigated for a fourth pregnancy: my doctor estimated nine months! Much as I would have loved another child, I am too old. However, the women in our family tend to be long-lived. Ninety one up to ninety six. All the best, enjoy yourself. Try to stop drinking.
I took alot of Coca-Cola and drinks like that when i was pregnant with my daughter back in 2016 now I'm suffering from severe vitamin D3 deficiency... despite everything I'm thankful to GOD for founding Dr Berg on RUclips.. learning great things about my body each day❤️❤️❤️
@Andrea A. "Why would you drink unhealthy while pregnant with a baby?" How dare you question a mother's unquestionably superior nurturing skills, you misogynist /s
No where near pregnant but watching to see if I ate right 20 years ago...Seems so. I tried to eat hotdogs back then. It was like the baby rejected them. To this day she has a natural inclination towards healthy foods. I'm grateful
I craved tomatoes when pregnant with my daughter and ate them frequently. As a toddler, she would eat tomatoes like an apple! She’d grab them from the grocery cart and begin to eat them in store. Lol
When I was pregnant I craved... back caviar (even though I never cared for it before). My daughter (13 y.o.) loves fancy food, fancy restaurants, fancy vacations, anything fancy. I blame that caviar for it (ha-ha).
I do not eat meat but craved chicken and ate it 2-3 times in pregnancy, my in-laws and husband eat non veg. She looks like my husband and likes all protien rich foods but made her a vegetarian just like me.
Dr. Berg, Can you talk about postpartum? What are foods that we should be eating to avoid postpartum depression and help get back in shape. Is it okay to fast while breastfeeding etc.. Thank you!! Love all your videos!
Hey! He said no fasting while breastfeeding in another video. I still did an 8 hr eating, 16 hr not eating fasting but ate super healthy & healthy keto, lots of fat & had great milk supply. If you're milk supply goes down, eat more/ more hours in the day. I hope that helps! 🙏❤
I know your comment is a year old, but maybe it can help someone else who's reading the comments and looking for answers/ help. Something else I just remembered is I read encapsulating your placenta and taking it can help with postpartum depression and also increase milk supply. I don't know how well it works for everyone, but I did it with both my children and had no depression and great milk supply personally. Hope this helps! 🙏❤
There are studies showing that taking fish oil and vitamin D during pregnancy can reduce the risk of postpardum depression significantly. You could always look into that as a prevention.
First time pregnant, I miscarried. SECOND TIME 7 weeks 2 days today!!! (3 days now) Dr. Berg, I have no health insurance, so THANK U SO MUCH for all of your amazing help! ❤
As I got fatter (heading to CHF) I learned that a sweet tooth was a manifestation of a calcium deficiency. Who knew that cabbage and broccoli cured the munchies.
@@vchafab Do know also that a deficiency usually has co-factors. Salt, bile salts, apple cider vinegar, vitamin D3 and K2, cooking the cabbage and broccoli to extract the minerals better, using animal fat exclusively, using a good probiotic, and avoiding carbs for awhile are just a few of the additional things that may also need be done to really kick those sweets. I also use a good bone supplement as you may need upwards of 7,000 -9,000 mg or 7 - 9g of calcium to see a change depends on the extent of the deficiency. Dr Berg covers all the pieces of the puzzle. He might have a presentation that is more direct that I don't know about. Last thought, sweets burn vitamin B1. This is one of the reasons insulin stops working as with type II diabetes (plus another boat load of mineral problems as systems are depleted)
Dear Dr Berg, thanks for providing all those information. I just started Keto diet for 1 week and already lost 2 KG and feeling more energy and my craving for high sugar food just no loner there. My only weakness is apple. I still have an apple per day and I just enjoy the sweet crunchy fruits and I will try to avoid apple eventually.
I would add dairy. If the mother is allergic to dairy they can pass antibodies thru breast milk and then the child would develop eczema and diarrhea. Doctors tell that the child is "allergic to milk" so they put the kid on soy milk or other toxic formula..
@@paulrodrigo9262 from my own experience, I was put on soy formula as a child cuz doctor could not figure out why i was having eczema and diarrhea even tho all I consumed was breast milk. My mom had dairy intolerance which she was unaware of so her body was producing antibodies that got passed via breastmilk
There are more than billion people in India born and raised on rice. Calling rice bad for pregnant women doesn't sound smart. However I do like your other videos. I did do your 3 days no food fasting back to back with 1 meal per day for 2 months. Lost 20kg and built some strong immune system. 5 days ago, I vaccinated with Pfizer and had no side effect other than mild pain on injection spot. No headache no fever or anything at all. 3 years ago I got bit by tick and fainted. My immune was shot untill the IF.
When i'm pregnant, like i am now, i eat whatever i feel like honestly, like you said, Ham or eggs on bread every day. Pregnancy is already enough suffering to deal with. Not one of those lucky "glowing and thriving" pregnant ladies.
Yeah me too I crave for ice cream and apples and my husband finds me the only "crispy and juicy ones"😂 motherhood is really a blessing but a good husband is a greater one❤️
And if I was you kid I would constantly disrespect you and make your hair Grey. I would make your life more miserable for you being a selfish food addict child.
@@youtubeKathy Right...lol I'm not pregnant, but I think about how our menstrual cycles preps us and you crave sweets and all kinds of junk if you don't do sweets. I'm not saying go overboard, but hormones aren't easy to talk to..lol So, if your wife cheats on her food give her a break. I believe if we are watching this doctor we care about our health. Most times if you so strict on someone...she or HE can get emotional and eat whatever...so be nice and all will win and work out. If your wife isn't eating it in front of you, she's eating it in the car. Don't make your significant other feel uncomfortable around you, starts to build resentment and distance at critical points in life.
Hi Dr. Berg, I was wondering if you had any information about how to (greatly) reduce nausea and vomiting during the first part of pregnancy - things that can be done before and during pregnancy, any nutrient that could help. Thank you!
Thank you so much for doing more pregnancy videos! I keep hearing you say do healthy keto but "don't intermittent fast". What's your recommendation for an eating window. When I was pregnant doing healthy keto, there wasn't any keto pregnancy videos out yet & one of my biggest issues was waiting to eat in the morning. I would be sick until I ate which caused me to break my fast way earlier that normal. More like 9-10am instead of my normal 12-1pm. I didn't know at the time what was right & I tried to do an 8 on - 16 off fasting & was eating 3 meals plus a snack since I was so hungry. My window was usually longer than 8 hours but I tried to stick closer to that. What's your recommendation on that? Also, I had a hard time eating anything fatty in the morning & for the first trimester. I basically wasn't keto for the first trimester until the sickness subsided. What foods would you recommend for morning sickness & normal pregnancy sickness? I wanted dry, non fatty items & any normal people were just like, "eat crackers"... which I didn't. Thank you again so so much! 🙏❤❤❤
Dear Dr. Berg, I am writing to inquire about the phenomenon commonly referred to as "pregnancy brain." I am particularly interested in understanding if it can be accurately described as a form of brain fog. As a 20-year-old mother expecting my second child, I believe it would be beneficial to gain a deeper understanding of this topic. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, Noelia Popoca.
Thank you for always GUIDING us. Working as a HEALTH COACH myself... I sincerely have GRATITUDE 🙏 for YOU, all other HEALING researchers on social media, and your TEAM, working non-stop to HEAL, TEACH & provide us KNOWLEDGE with your videos. Thank you Dr Eric🙏🌿🌎
Keto is definitely not a good idea when pregnant. You need carbs but you need to occasionally on healthier types of cards like wholegrain, pulses etc and limit your intake to 100g to 150g a day. Carbs are important for the growth of the baby.
freezing destroys parasites, sometimes you dont know if fish was living in a unpolluted water. Its common for animals that live in polluted environment to develop parasites
Drink homemade lemonade if you have heartburn, I figured this out on my own after suffering horrible heartburn and nausea . My OB never suggested this simple remedy after I complained for so long. All they offered were prescription drugs , imagine that .
Heartburn during pregnancy is caused by the pressure in the abdomen so the if you have weak diaphragm muscles it can push your stomach up leaving you will mild hiatal hernia
Hey Dr Berg. Can you please do a video about women with slightly smaller egg sizes , that may be having trouble getting pregnant and how to make it happen ? Also , if there’s anything those women should be worried about such as miscarrying or any other complications when it finally does happen ? That’ll be very appreciated
I just ate whatever I craved along with some suppliments a brewers yeast and had a very healthy child, breast fed 1 year and 3 months. (I was and am a "health nut" my whole life and went back to my usual health food diet after child was born)
@@7707jenn right... so use it as an excuse to live with your body in a healthy environment just because it's healthy. Or blame the baby and binge on all the junk you were never going to quit eating anyways
@@travisschaub6872 what? Are you ok? I had no idea I'm pregnant... found out yesterday. Thankfully I've been ketovore for a while and have reversed pre diabetes, high blood pressure and have lost 55 pounds. But honestly.... sometimes people are living their lives the way they want.. eating junk because they're not yet educated about food and then she ends up getting pregnant. Sometimes pregnancy happens out of the blue...I certainly wasn't expecting it. It took me 12 YEARS to get pregnant with my daughter. And 8 years this time.
@@elizabethtimothy4776 "Reject them if consumed by mum" - how baby rejects the something if its in the womb? where you gonna get epa, dha ? you would have to eat brains or high quality egg yolks
I believe that’s more important to care about your diet before pregnancy than during ( possibly all day sickness). It takes 3 months for an egg to ripe and I find nutrition during this time essential. You want a good egg and good sperm to meet. I was super careful during this period. Once I was so pregnant, I would be sick eating anything except for hotdogs. Fortunately for me, I find some in Lidl that were 99% of pork 🤣🤣🤣
Retinol, Vit K2 in mk-4 form, Vit D and some fatty acids. Eggs or fish eggs aka caviar have everything to "ripe the eggs". But you can also get it from steaks, wild salmon, grass fed butter.
Thank you for sharing Doctor.. It'll be very helpful for many people who think they can stuff themselves with literally anything as they are pregnant 🤣😂
@@paulrodrigo9262 Hi Paul, thank you so much. I really appreciate your help and concern and I am grateful and happy that you and your wife were blessed with children 🤗 However Im not trying to fall pregnant at the moment and Im not in the U.S. so I dont think I'd be able to make that call 😅 What I meant by my comment, is that when I am pregnant and get cravings, my inlaws are going to do their best to persuade me to eat whatever I'm craving, because "If you want a donut, there's something in that donut your body is asking for and you should eat it." Like yes, that is sugar, and the part of my brain that wants it is the same part of my brain that reacts to drug addiction (something like that) so they are basically convincing me to be a drug addict 😥 Im grateful that my partner stands by me though. He steps in when it gets abit overbearing. (They already persuade me to eat unhealthily, its going to be a lifelong battle). But back to the doctor story. My mom was also told by the docs that she could never have children, and she researched and researched, how diets affect your acidity levels and aaaalllllllll that jazz, and about 4 years later she got pregnant with me 😊 And I have a younger brother too. My mom is now an alternative healthcare practitioner of 20 odd years (Im 22) and she has helped nurmerous other women fall pregnant who were told they cant fall pregnant, amongst other things. And it all mainly leads back to the diet 👍 But thank you so much for your help and I really am very happy for you and your wonderful wife. May the Lord continue to bless you and your sweet family, and may your family grow and bring you and your wife immeasurable joy. God Bless you and have a wonderful day 🙏🌹
I crave carbs so bad now even after being keto for 7 years. I can only eat crap during my pregnancy so far (week 11 right now). Otherwise I wouldn't eat at all and I'm already underweight... I feel so bad about eating so much sugar and carbs. I hope my appetite for healthy things will be back soon
@@kimberlyfobbs2873 I'm in week 21 now and since a few weeks I've been able to eat mostly keto again. Hang in there, it will get better and honestly in the meantime just eat whatever is possible, at least that's what I did (plus always take my pregnancy vitamins). So far our baby is fine!
Dr. berg can you go over trace minerals? Things like fluoride and mercury found in a lot of natural spring water. Are those trace minerals essential to us in anyway or are they purely toxins just tracing our water or other things? I’ve been curious to know if we’d be healthier without them at all or with them
I think gestational diabetes might be your answer. Lots of spiked insulin. Also maybe look into what percentage of whole grain is in some favorite whole grain products. There may not be a huge health difference between that and the more refined carbohydrate options.
Thank you Dr. Berg, I recently had Optic Neuritis and have some lesions in my brain. What should I do that will help? Thank you for the pregnancy video. All your content is great and really helpful.
@@chumki19 not really cause plants do not contain Retinol. The inside lining of the eye is called RETINA, the vitamin that can repair is called RETINOL aka vitamin A in active form. Plants contain carotenes that can be converted into Retinol but the conversion rate is about 7-13% and not everyone has genetic capacity to do that
Hi Dr. Berg, I know women are not generally hungry while they’re in labor, but please can you suggest some snacks that will increase energy during this time. Are nuts and cheeses ok…anything else? Thank you in advance 😃
Hi Dr. Berg, as far as the grains are concerned I'm on the Mediterranean diet as my dr. recommended, I transition from keto to Mediterranean a few months ago. How do I stay away from whole grains on this diet? Should I be replacing them with something else? I've mostly been having kamut, barley, wheat berries, millet, and farro.
Hi Dr Berg, I watched your videos relating to pregnancy but still am a bit confused. During pregnancy, Why can’t we do intermittent fasting of 16-8, if we consume enough nutritions? Thank you!
Dr berg please make a video on brain stroke paralysis as am suffering from brain stroke paralysis since 5years and my arm and leg is not working properly
Is there a reason (and a remedy) for this horrendous morning sickness during pregnancy ? I was already three times pregnant and during the sixth to the thirteenth week I suffered from such a terrible nausea that I couldn’t eat …. I just ate a little bit and I had to vomit three times a day.
Hey dr Berg I have insulin resistance and today I was under the sun And was fasting suddenly I can’t see anything for 3 minutes when I started walking I got my vision back and I have headache I don’t know is it from Insulin resistance cause it concerns me
Sir I had intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy(ICP) during pregnancy due to which I lost my full term baby 😞 Is there any food which can either be avoided or eaten to keep our bile under reference range?
Dr. Berg, i just found out that I'm already 6 weeks pregnant. I usually drink 1 glass of warm water with 1tbs Apple Vinegar + a bit of honey (just so it doesn't taste so 'stingy n sour' 😅) for my gerd. Is it safe for me to still do that while I'm pregnant?
I understand your reluctance for antibiotics, as antibiotics cause their own health problems. I do not do well with them myself. But if the infection gets bad, you might not have a choice. Better alive on antibiotics than dead. It is that simple. If the infection is just barely getting started, and you know the signs, try rubbing goose grease over the chest and putting an old t-shirt over that. Put child to bed and check condition very often. Every half hour until you know your child is good. If it gets worse you will need to get medical help. If it is already bad I suggest getting the help now and try the goose greese in the future. You can buy live prebiotic for children to help undo the damage from the antibiotics.
Check out Dr. Berg’s other videos. Things can escalate quickly, but there are natural foods and herbs to treat and prevent lung issues, as well as heal the gut and tissues after antibiotics if need be. Perhaps also look into Doctor’s recommending saline nebulizers. They are available online and on Amazon and videos from doctors are on RUclips.
Bifidobacteria based probiotics. Make him/her inhale eucalyptus oil to thin mucus and force lungs to remove it. I would not use any strong herbs orally like garlic or simply other antibiotics, the child is too sensitive to that. Breast milk in that case would be ideal food. Dont give the child too much sugar - limit fruit and other carbs. You can make liver patee or blend chicken with some meat sauce. Sugar wont provide any nutrition to help heal the lungs. Sugar has cooling effect, you wanna keep the body heat high. Small pieces of papaya or mango are best, i dont reccomend acidic fruits to a small baby. If you give the kid antibotics it will simply leave the permanent damage on his gut, therefore huge possibility of allergies and acne in the future..
Dr Berg,I'm pregnant and my sugar is high, type 2..they place me on insulin ,what can i eat,is fasting okay..I have ask to take 3 meals, 3 snacks a day
Dr Berg. I am 43.1.69 tall and 66 kg.i dont smoke or drink. I am 6 months pregnant and i would love to start eat 1 a 2 times a day again. I only eat nuts fruits and vegetables from when i was 11. But since i am pregnant, I eat 2 x as much of all that i ate... So super healthy but also super much. And like 3 a 4 times a day. I gained allready 4 or 5 kg in my pregnanty and i still have 3 months to go. Can u give me advice if i can eat maybe much but 1 or 2 times a day or would that be bad for my baby?
Just found out im pregnant with my 1st child at 36 years old. Was already eating keto. Thanks for your wonderful and informative videos. Wishing & praying for a healthy pregnancy ❤ and healthy child.

Most times if you so strict on someone...she or HE can get emotional and eat whatever...so be nice and all will win and work out. If your wife isn't eating it in front of you, she's eating it in the car. Don't make your significant other feel uncomfortable around you, starts to build resentment and distance at critical points in life.
Please do intermittent fasting if you are going to eat like junk. Your baby deserves a healthy body to grow in 🙏🏼
Good thing I get hyperemesis when I’m pregnant and can’t eat or drink anything, not even water.
Hi Dr. Berg, I was wondering if you had any information about how to (greatly) reduce nausea and vomiting during the first part of pregnancy - things that can be done before and during pregnancy, any nutrient that could help. Thank you!
Thank you so much for doing more pregnancy videos! I keep hearing you say do healthy keto but "don't intermittent fast". What's your recommendation for an eating window. When I was pregnant doing healthy keto, there wasn't any keto pregnancy videos out yet & one of my biggest issues was waiting to eat in the morning. I would be sick until I ate which caused me to break my fast way earlier that normal. More like 9-10am instead of my normal 12-1pm. I didn't know at the time what was right & I tried to do an 8 on - 16 off fasting & was eating 3 meals plus a snack since I was so hungry. My window was usually longer than 8 hours but I tried to stick closer to that. What's your recommendation on that?
Also, I had a hard time eating anything fatty in the morning & for the first trimester. I basically wasn't keto for the first trimester until the sickness subsided. What foods would you recommend for morning sickness & normal pregnancy sickness? I wanted dry, non fatty items & any normal people were just like, "eat crackers"... which I didn't.
Thank you again so so much! 🙏❤❤❤
Dear Dr. Berg,
I am writing to inquire about the phenomenon commonly referred to as "pregnancy brain." I am particularly interested in understanding if it can be accurately described as a form of brain fog. As a 20-year-old mother expecting my second child, I believe it would be beneficial to gain a deeper understanding of this topic.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Noelia Popoca.
Thank you for always GUIDING us.
Working as a HEALTH COACH myself...
I sincerely have GRATITUDE 🙏 for YOU, all other HEALING researchers on social media, and your TEAM,

Thank you Dr Eric🙏🌿🌎
Very glad to be of help.
Great doc...first

Keto is definitely not a good idea when pregnant. You need carbs but you need to occasionally on healthier types of cards like wholegrain, pulses etc and limit your intake to 100g to 150g a day. Carbs are important for the growth of the baby.
You forgot plastic bottled water! Even mainstream news post about children born full of microplastics
12 weeks and i cant keep any healthy food in my belly. All i want is dry foods cup noodles , fries etc
Same
Are you sure freezing can kill bacteria??? Thank you Dr Berg for all the knowledge you share.
freezing destroys parasites, sometimes you dont know if fish was living in a unpolluted water. Its common for animals that live in polluted environment to develop parasites
Drink homemade lemonade if you have heartburn, I figured this out on my own after suffering horrible heartburn and nausea . My OB never suggested this simple remedy after I complained for so long. All they offered were prescription drugs , imagine that .
Heartburn during pregnancy is caused by the pressure in the abdomen so the if you have weak diaphragm muscles it can push your stomach up leaving you will mild hiatal hernia
Kindly guide how to reduce FSH hormone diet ?
Hey Dr Berg. Can you please do a video about women with slightly smaller egg sizes , that may be having trouble getting pregnant and how to make it happen ? Also , if there’s anything those women should be worried about such as miscarrying or any other complications when it finally does happen ? That’ll be very appreciated
Thanks alot for making this video Dr. May I ask if I can take supplements like omega3 and vit B 12 during 1st trimester? Or later ?
Can I take raw apple cider vinegar during pregnancy?
No
Great video. Clear, informative and concise video.
Glad you like the video. Thanks for watching!
Yes! Please do more on pregnancy, miscarriage, recurrent miscarriage, birth!!!!
Dr Eric can please talk about being pregnant and working night shift please thank you.
I just ate whatever I craved along with some suppliments a brewers yeast and had a very healthy child, breast fed 1 year and 3 months. (I was and am a "health nut" my whole life and went back to my usual health food diet after child was born)
What kind of yeast brand you used ?
Hey dr berg have you ever tried shilijit and is it okay for pregnancy?
Good Morning , Dr.Berg 🌞
Thank You , So much for sharing this general information with us , Have a wonderful day !

Thanks for these videos!
Most welcome!
but what about giving the baby a proper environment in the body BEFORE conception??? Why do we only focus in during....?
Exactly. Wifey material right here
Some people don't realize they're going to get pregnant.....
@@7707jenn right... so use it as an excuse to live with your body in a healthy environment just because it's healthy. Or blame the baby and binge on all the junk you were never going to quit eating anyways
@@travisschaub6872 what? Are you ok? I had no idea I'm pregnant... found out yesterday. Thankfully I've been ketovore for a while and have reversed pre diabetes, high blood pressure and have lost 55 pounds. But honestly.... sometimes people are living their lives the way they want.. eating junk because they're not yet educated about food and then she ends up getting pregnant. Sometimes pregnancy happens out of the blue...I certainly wasn't expecting it. It took me 12 YEARS to get pregnant with my daughter. And 8 years this time.
@@7707jenn pregnant is not wat happens out of the blue my dear.....
Thank you Dr.berg 👍👍👍❤
Also avoid shellfish (unfortunately).
shellfish that is low on the food chain and is not farmed is usually safe, unless the waters are really polluted
@@Tw1l1ghTT it's better to avoid them, any babies usually reject them it consumed by the mum anyway.
@@elizabethtimothy4776 "Reject them if consumed by mum" - how baby rejects the something if its in the womb? where you gonna get epa, dha ? you would have to eat brains or high quality egg yolks
Could you please create a video on what to eat, especially with PCOS and endometriosis.
Hope these videos help!

Some great tips! 🙏☺️
I was waiting for this!🙏
My 'first meal' tradition postpartum was good sushi and a good beer (after nursing/pumping). I blame this for my girls love of sushi.
I believe that’s more important to care about your diet before pregnancy than during ( possibly all day sickness). It takes 3 months for an egg to ripe and I find nutrition during this time essential. You want a good egg and good sperm to meet. I was super careful during this period. Once I was so pregnant, I would be sick eating anything except for hotdogs. Fortunately for me, I find some in Lidl that were 99% of pork 🤣🤣🤣
Dr Berg please help. I’m 31 weeks pregnant and my fasting BGL went from 84 mg/dl to 110 mg/dl. How do I reverse rising BGL?
Please do a video on hyperemesis gravidarum
Curious as what to eat while preparing for pregnancy. Is their any specific nutrients we should be getting while ripening the eggs?
Retinol, Vit K2 in mk-4 form, Vit D and some fatty acids. Eggs or fish eggs aka caviar have everything to "ripe the eggs". But you can also get it from steaks, wild salmon, grass fed butter.
Foods high in folate for sure. FOLATE also known as Folic acid (this is the synthetic form, that's in vitamins) ensures proper cell division. Cheer!
Thank you for sharing Doctor.. It'll be very helpful for many people who think they can stuff themselves with literally anything as they are pregnant 🤣😂
Im gonna have a tough time. My inlaws believe that if you crave it, that is your body telling you that you need it 😐
Nog only when pregnant
@@paulrodrigo9262 Hi Paul, thank you so much. I really appreciate your help and concern and I am grateful and happy that you and your wife were blessed with children 🤗 However Im not trying to fall pregnant at the moment and Im not in the U.S. so I dont think I'd be able to make that call 😅 What I meant by my comment, is that when I am pregnant and get cravings, my inlaws are going to do their best to persuade me to eat whatever I'm craving, because "If you want a donut, there's something in that donut your body is asking for and you should eat it." Like yes, that is sugar, and the part of my brain that wants it is the same part of my brain that reacts to drug addiction (something like that) so they are basically convincing me to be a drug addict 😥 Im grateful that my partner stands by me though. He steps in when it gets abit overbearing. (They already persuade me to eat unhealthily, its going to be a lifelong battle).
But back to the doctor story. My mom was also told by the docs that she could never have children, and she researched and researched, how diets affect your acidity levels and aaaalllllllll that jazz, and about 4 years later she got pregnant with me 😊 And I have a younger brother too. My mom is now an alternative healthcare practitioner of 20 odd years (Im 22) and she has helped nurmerous other women fall pregnant who were told they cant fall pregnant, amongst other things. And it all mainly leads back to the diet 👍 But thank you so much for your help and I really am very happy for you and your wonderful wife. May the Lord continue to bless you and your sweet family, and may your family grow and bring you and your wife immeasurable joy. God Bless you and have a wonderful day 🙏🌹
Thanks
So deli meats, for example turkey and roast beef would be best if it was organic, high quality and home made?
I crave carbs so bad now even after being keto for 7 years. I can only eat crap during my pregnancy so far (week 11 right now). Otherwise I wouldn't eat at all and I'm already underweight... I feel so bad about eating so much sugar and carbs. I hope my appetite for healthy things will be back soon
I’m in the same boat at 11 weeks, I’ve tried healthy up until the 9th week, all I can keep down is bagels, pizza and potatoes 😅
@@kimberlyfobbs2873 I'm in week 21 now and since a few weeks I've been able to eat mostly keto again. Hang in there, it will get better and honestly in the meantime just eat whatever is possible, at least that's what I did (plus always take my pregnancy vitamins). So far our baby is fine!
Dr. berg can you go over trace minerals? Things like fluoride and mercury found in a lot of natural spring water. Are those trace minerals essential to us in anyway or are they purely toxins just tracing our water or other things? I’ve been curious to know if we’d be healthier without them at all or with them
Thank you for this video
You're welcome!
Can you please link a study where whole grains were harmful during pregnancy. Thanks 😊
I think gestational diabetes might be your answer. Lots of spiked insulin.
Also maybe look into what percentage of whole grain is in some favorite whole grain products. There may not be a huge health difference between that and the more refined carbohydrate options.
Thank you Dr. Berg, I recently had Optic Neuritis and have some lesions in my brain. What should I do that will help? Thank you for the pregnancy video. All your content is great and really helpful.
fasting, high dose of vitamin d/k2, retinol and cholesterol rich foods like egg yolks, fish eggs, butter, liver
@@Tw1l1ghTT doing intermittent fasting. Any options for vegetarians?
@@paulrodrigo9262Thank you🙂
@@chumki19 not really cause plants do not contain Retinol. The inside lining of the eye is called RETINA, the vitamin that can repair is called RETINOL aka vitamin A in active form. Plants contain carotenes that can be converted into Retinol but the conversion rate is about 7-13% and not everyone has genetic capacity to do that
I constantly crave salmon and avocados. I'm almost certain my husband is pretty tired of both at this point lol
Thanks a lot sir!
Many thanks
Hi Dr. Berg, I know women are not generally hungry while they’re in labor, but please can you suggest some snacks that will increase energy during this time. Are nuts and cheeses ok…anything else? Thank you in advance 😃
Hi Dr. Berg, as far as the grains are concerned I'm on the Mediterranean diet as my dr. recommended, I transition from keto to Mediterranean a few months ago. How do I stay away from whole grains on this diet? Should I be replacing them with something else? I've mostly been having kamut, barley, wheat berries, millet, and farro.
How about Mediterranean keto?
Thank you very true inf.
eat veg food work physically, dont go to gym. here in india even prgnant women work in paddy feilds till 7th month..
Thank u 🤍 for this videos
One of my cravings were for prawns.
Hi Dr Berg, I watched your videos relating to pregnancy but still am a bit confused. During pregnancy, Why can’t we do intermittent fasting of 16-8, if we consume enough nutritions? Thank you!
Dr berg please make a video on brain stroke paralysis as am suffering from brain stroke paralysis since 5years and my arm and leg is not working properly
Dr. what do you think about fermented food before and during pregnancy?
can you eat raw cheese/ kefir during? Thank you
My nausea is so bad I can only keep plain carbs down.
What about eating ancient organic grains like emmer or einkorn?? & what about organic wild rice?
Which grains to avoid ?????
Is there a reason (and a remedy) for this horrendous morning sickness during pregnancy ? I was already three times pregnant and during the sixth to the thirteenth week I suffered from such a terrible nausea that I couldn’t eat …. I just ate a little bit and I had to vomit three times a day.
Hey dr Berg I have insulin resistance and today I was under the sun And was fasting suddenly I can’t see anything for 3 minutes when I started walking I got my vision back and I have headache I don’t know is it from Insulin resistance cause it concerns me
What about the jabs for this flu going around?
Doctor Berg, Can I eat threadfin fish during pregnancy?
Sir I had intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy(ICP) during pregnancy due to which I lost my full term baby 😞 Is there any food which can either be avoided or eaten to keep our bile under reference range?
Dr.Berg, is it okay to eat Ezekiel bread in moderation? I avoid carbs, but I sometimes like to have a sandwich.
Dr. Berg, i just found out that I'm already 6 weeks pregnant. I usually drink 1 glass of warm water with 1tbs Apple Vinegar + a bit of honey (just so it doesn't taste so 'stingy n sour' 😅) for my gerd.
Is it safe for me to still do that while I'm pregnant?
Hello there. We suggest that you check with your doctor to be sure.

What can treat a chest infection in a 2 year old...(not antibiotics)?? 🙏
I understand your reluctance for antibiotics, as antibiotics cause their own health problems. I do not do well with them myself.
But if the infection gets bad, you might not have a choice. Better alive on antibiotics than dead. It is that simple. If the infection is just barely getting started, and you know the signs, try rubbing goose grease over the chest and putting an old t-shirt over that. Put child to bed and check condition very often. Every half hour until you know your child is good. If it gets worse you will need to get medical help. If it is already bad I suggest getting the help now and try the goose greese in the future. You can buy live prebiotic for children to help undo the damage from the antibiotics.
Check out Dr. Berg’s other videos. Things can escalate quickly, but there are natural foods and herbs to treat and prevent lung issues, as well as heal the gut and tissues after antibiotics if need be. Perhaps also look into Doctor’s recommending saline nebulizers. They are available online and on Amazon and videos from doctors are on RUclips.
real bone/marrow broth
Thank you everyone for your advice!🙏🙏
Bifidobacteria based probiotics. Make him/her inhale eucalyptus oil to thin mucus and force lungs to remove it. I would not use any strong herbs orally like garlic or simply other antibiotics, the child is too sensitive to that. Breast milk in that case would be ideal food. Dont give the child too much sugar - limit fruit and other carbs. You can make liver patee or blend chicken with some meat sauce. Sugar wont provide any nutrition to help heal the lungs. Sugar has cooling effect, you wanna keep the body heat high. Small pieces of papaya or mango are best, i dont reccomend acidic fruits to a small baby. If you give the kid antibotics it will simply leave the permanent damage on his gut, therefore huge possibility of allergies and acne in the future..
Dr Berg,I'm pregnant and my sugar is high, type 2..they place me on insulin ,what can i eat,is fasting okay..I have ask to take 3 meals, 3 snacks a day
lol! pet mice. I love his subtle humor.
What about for vegetarians who are pregnant ?
Hey dr berg could you please do a video on radiation in our foods and water supply??? Also is there a way to detox some of it

Dr Berg.
I am 43.1.69 tall and 66 kg.i dont smoke or drink.
I am 6 months pregnant and i would love to start eat 1 a 2 times a day again.
I only eat nuts fruits and vegetables from when i was 11.
But since i am pregnant,
I eat 2 x as much of all that i ate...
So super healthy but also super much.
And like 3 a 4 times a day.
I gained allready 4 or 5 kg in my pregnanty and i still have 3 months to go.
Can u give me advice if i can eat maybe much but 1 or 2 times a day or would that be bad for my baby?
