I just noticed that the prebiotic fiber supplement I take is WHEAT Dextrin. Is that not good?
Thanks for all you do!
Can you pin your comment so that is appears as the first comment?
will man boobs reverse if i stop eating wheat?
@@samhaney527 Noooooo
@Inflammation Gains I wouldn't
1- Stimulates an inappropriate appetite
2- Increases chronic inflammation
3- Attacks self-cells
4- Blocks mineral absorption
5- Causes allergic reactions
6- Can interfere with hormones
7- Addictive
I regret eating the bread I had yesterday.
also destroys the membranes in your digestive tract, particularly in the small intestine. Those long protein chains are very hard to break down especially after they've been exposed to heat since they become entangled. So they sit on the inner surfaces of your intestine and the amino acids cause damage to the cells due to the nature of their acidity. They aren't meant to just sit there for so long. This can lead to ulcers similar to how some people get ulcers because their own stomach acid is getting to places where it shouldn't be. Such as the small intestine. Or in the other direction, the esophagus.
Thanks very much for writing this out.
Thank you!!!
Thanks so much for this
I haven’t touched grains in 2 years . Rosacea gone , asthma gone , UTIs gone , extra weight gone .
What did you replace this with ? TIA
Birdie , nothing really , I just eat meat , eggs , fish , etc and veggies .
How long did it take for your Rosacea to go away?
Ursula Eissner what are your thoughts on heart disease, arteriosclerosis?
Stellabully , I don’t have thoughts about a specific disease . If you want your body and mind to be healthy , feed them the proper human diet .
i find wheat products to be very addictive. the more i eat, the more i want. carb addiction is very real...at least for me.
It's not just you, carbs are absolutely a hugely addictive substance.
And yet, they're all over the store shelves. Everywhere. Oh, joy.
@Splatterviz I hear that friend. Been struggling for years with carb/sugar addiction. Good luck with it.
For me too. I have a very hard time not eating them.
"carbaddictiondoc" has been very helpful to me.
I'm a high school science teacher, my school recieves free breakfasts that I used to have to help serve to the kids. I've been banned from serving, or even being in the same room when they are serving. I asked the wrong question. And I calculated the percent of calories from carbohydrates out loud, then calculated the percent of those calories that were wheat and corn. The nutritionist swears that according to the government standards everything they serve is healthy and good for the children, and I swear that they are ruining the kids livers, pancreas s, and slowly poisoning them to death, not to mention training their little bodies to have to be fed every hour and a half all day long. Like I said, I've been banned from the room when they are serving.
Maybe start a Bring Your Own Brown Bag club or get a really good nutritional speaker to have a talk in your community.
There are none so blind than those who *refuse* to see!
Just watch, in years to come it will be 'discovered' that what is basically Keto + intermittent fasting = less obesity and other diseases.
Kati Melton that is Terrible and something that needs taken to local legislators . I know we grew up on garbage too, but aren’t we supposed to be better and learn lessons?
@@lailarashidioun3351 'local legislators' are probably part of the problem.
"Government nutrition standards" have been misleading Americans for over 60 years.
I gave up wheat, grains and all processed foods 16 months ago, and what a difference it has made. Now I eat everything my Doctor told me to stay away from, and when he gets my results back he wants to know how I got everything to normal or better levels.
Yeah, my doctor is still somewhat confused how I was able to drop my A1c from 8.7 to 5.2, lower triglicerides and LDL, raise my HDL,, and lower total cholesterol to under 200 in 3 months by eating mostly fat, all without the meds he prescribed.🤣
@@markbeiser what kind of fat were you eating? Thanks 😊😀😷👍👌🤗🇺🇸
What did your doctor tell you to stay away from?
When my blood results came back my doctor was surprised, he asked me what I was doing to get the improvements. I told him Keto diet. He was surprised, asked me what’s a Keto diet. Just changed my doctor.😳😳😳🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽
@@richardhowe4140 The whole range of natural fats, absolutely no "vegetable" oils or industrially processed foods.
Fats in grass fed/finished meats, butter, ghee, avocados, pecans and macadamia nuts, coconut oil, EVOO, avocado oil, heavy cream, real cheese, etc..
Basically a clean whole real foods clean ketogenic diet. High fat, moderate protein, very low carb.
Agreed. I have been off wheat now for 12 years, and it has made a huge difference.
@Ritesh Arora yes..same question what they eat.... these doctors may promoting non veg as more and more people are becoming veg these days....
@Ritesh Arora I don't even notice that wheat is no longer part of my diet. I eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and plant based proteins. For carbs, they make plenty of gluten free foods that use Potato starch, Tapioca starch , or rice instead of wheat. I don't even notice.
@Ritesh Arora Dairy: Milk is for cows, so I drink Rice Milk. I do eat eggs occasionally. Very little red meat, some chicken, lots of fish.
@Ritesh Arora None. No health issues. Where as before this change, I had severe GI issues related to a Gluten allergy. If I had not made this change I would be chronically unwell.
@Ritesh Arora Best of luck
After stopping all the grain my life is so much better. I enjoy waking up every morning with out pain. Much less inflammation
How long do it take for you to notice a reduction in pain..I have been taking kratom for arthritis and it's 100% effective and no side effects..thanks 😀😷👍👌🇺🇸🤗
Well done John!!!
what do u eat instead
I have to stop grains...I have pain all over my body and skin rash..
2021 I'm going grain free!! Hopefully I'll get back to normal..
Then what do you eat other than that? ?
I listened to Dr Berry, and cutout all grains and wheat, I now have no trace of acid reflux for 7 months now
Toni Kennedy good to know! I suffer major from that.
Whenever I eat rice more than 1/2 of plate, my stomach feels bloating and I can’t even sleep. Good thing it’s gone now.
Adi Picograf I know what you mean, I don’t eat rice anymore either
Same for me, when I let it creep back in over the holidays I got heartburn for a month. Never again.
Toni Kennedy I cut out sugar and it completely eliminated my acid reflux. I was having gallbladder issues and my homeopathic Dr. told me to eat whole wheat.....it’s quite confusing when 5 different doctors give you 5 different bits of advice😏
As an endurance athlete, I’ve always lived on carbs. Over the past 2 years, I’ve developed chronic inflammation. I had pretty much accepted the fact that I would live the rest of my life in pain. 3 days ago I cut out all grains. In that short of time, my range of motion has improved dramatically. No more pain in my joints and just feeling overall better. I had added coconut oil and golden milk to knock down the inflammation, but the elimination of the grains is most probably the main part. Peace, all.
Complex carbs seem to be ok for me, organic quinoa/chia/blue potato.
It's mostly just gluten, refined grains.
Grains are all okay. It's the way you guys produce them that's the problem. I don't eat any snack myself because most of our wheat comes from Western countries.
WHAT ABOUT WHITE RICE
I agree with you, I’m celiac so no gluten for me. GF bread and grains still make me feel unwell, my IBS flares. I ate GF fish and chips last night I haven’t been glutened, whatever substitute flour they used to make the GF batter, hasn’t agreed with me . Plus they use cheap nasty veggie oils. The next step for me is to go carnivore, I’m just finding it so hard to get there, as I’m not a big meat eater.
@@bobwa399Yes good question, I’d like to know that as well.
Dr. Berry is a wealth of knowledge. I listened to my fist video of Dr. Berrys about how to lose 50 pounds or more 1 year ago. As of today 1 year later I have lost 117 pounds down from 308 to 191 lbs. Thank you Dr. Berry!!
I scream internally when people talk about how they are making better choices because they eat whole grains and wheat
Lee Holmes Me too, the amount of cringing makes me want to punch a wall..
Me too!
@@KenDBerryMD I sure could use your help with a terminally ill friend and his cancer fight. I've been pointing him you're way but hes fighting the depression associated with his diagnosis. Has a tumor on his spine😢
Omg yes I agree -me too
Or, sprouted grains? Ezekiel bread is what has also been touted as being healthy.
It may only be coincidental, but after I minimized grain and other carbohydrates over the last 6 weeks, a persistent left knee joint pain has markedly reduced.
usamwhambam My husband experiences this, as well, when he cuts out or even greatly reduces wheat. Sometimes he gets away from that, though, and starts eating it again. Return of the knee pain reminds him of why he was avoiding wheat, and gets back to it.
Hi. Thanks for your message. Your husband and I must share similar wheat-phobic genes. Good luck to him when he drives by a donut shop, wheat and sugar-the double sided threat
usamwhambam yup all my aches pains and stiffness gone within very short time frame
Yes! I went without it for a couple of weeks and my knees stopped hurting completely! Then I gave in and within 2 days, they were hurting again. Went back off and they feel good again. Not a coincidence!!🙂
And that's sad in a way because my Amish neighbors make THE best cookies I ever ate(and won't again)😥
Greetings from UK. Definitely helped me, after I stopped eating wheat and grains my joint pains disappeared within 2 weeks! Also my pre diabetes was reversed. Thanks Dr Berry. Keep up the good work.
Hi Irfan, I started Keto 18 months ago and I had my 64th birthday 2 days ago! I wish I knew about low carb eating 20 years ago as it would have had a great benefit on my health. But better late than never!!
Same .I am a 24 now ,
Was diagnosed with pre diabetes on Jan 2019 .
Ever since been on low carb diet without lactose and gluten , as I am lactose intolerant.eating only brown rice /red rice .
And I don't know why ,whenever I eat whole wheat I get extreme vomiting and just rejection from my body .
I've reversed my pcod ,my diabetes .and lost 21kgs .
@@georgemichaels9057 yes me too, the pains in my joints ,make me feel so old, and weak. And the inflammation has gone too. Especially in my knees and hands….
@@lindab8397 That’s great, in my case I suffered for a year before finding out about Keto and it’s still working for me. I tell all my friends and family but disappointingly you can’t convince all of them that sugar and carbs are the cause of damage and inflammation in the body. Keep it up and you won’t regret it.
@@georgemichaels9057 I know what you mean about trying to convince people , it’s because they can’t stand the thought of giving up something they like …. Glad it worked for you 👍🇬🇧
It's taken me a while to accept my wheat sensitivity and still long to indulge. My symptoms are relatively minor (itchy skin, minor rash, peeling mouth/lips, joint inflammation). Glad to be in a healing stage since going wheat-free.
Bread is like a drug! I wish it didn’t taste so good!
Amen. It's my favorite food in the whole world.
I bake sourdough, I would miss that.
I have a bread machine that bakes small loaves of bread in 45 minutes. There’s nothing like fresh bread!
I even like the process of baking it. I give most of what I make away.
dj Chauvin Maybe you need to get out more. 😊
I started carnivore 6 months ago with a few small cheats since then - within 3 days my body didn't ache anymore. My right hand had arthritis in it and I often had to ask for help when opening things. (It would also throb in pain at night) Now I have amazing strength in that hand - can open everything and even throw football with my grandsons which is a joy.
All I have to do is take a good look at my hand compared to my left, and that is yet another reason I am not going back to eating junk. So glad you kept popping up on my phone Dr. Berry!!
I quit eating all wheat for about two weeks since it caused me heartburn, fatigue, and anxiety. Well, I started eating it again a few days ago. In the form of breaded chicken strips, nuggets, and bread. My god I feel awful! My symptoms have increased 10 fold. I noticed I got a headache after my first wheat meal, but I didn't think anything of it. Then it got worse and worse the more I ate. Around day two of eating wheat again, I started doubling over in pain. That never happened as severely before. I was bloated so badly I couldn't stand up straight. And then there is the heartburn, holy crap the heartburn. I have never had heartburn this bad before. My throat is on fire and has been for a couple of days now. Not to mention I am hyper-salivating like crazy because of the reflux and it is driving me mad! I haven't had wheat since last evening, and I don't see me ever eating again! It's hard to believe just two weeks off of it could make me react this badly!
any update?
That's probably how it always made your body feel, but over time your brain just numbed the perception to be able to cope, until you didn't even noticed it consciously anymore.
Hello Joshua. I think that a proper test would be to eat wheat as berries. Like a bulgur wheat soup or salad. Breaded chicken strips and similar foods contain enriched flour, which is a refined product with tons of additives. It's not a whole food. You might be reacting to some of the synthetic components that are added to flour.
Greetings
I first watch this video 4 months ago. I'm down 35 pounds and feel amazing. I'm allergic to wheat but decided to go grain free.
@CookieMonster_ my body and bones hurt, I feel fatigue and weak like I'm 90 years old, my body swells almost like retaining water and I keep gaining weight, I had a weight loss surgery, and even eating like they said, I couldn't lose the weight, but now sever years after my weight loss surgery and 2 years after finding out about my wheat allergy, I and 235 pounds. Before I was 420 pounds. I also get runny nose swollen Tonsils, heavy caughing, hard breathing, but that's all gone since going wheat free
@CookieMonster_ it takes 3-10 days, depends how much gluten I had. And the longer I go without the stronger I feel my symptoms.
@CookieMonster_ I also can't eat eggs, the only thing that happens to me with eggs is bloating, after I eat them I go up 3-5 pounds, I also have a sensitivity to other grains and I'm allergic to millet, millet is in a lot of gluten free substitutes like gf bread, gf sweets. I also have issues with oinions and coffee. Oats and coffee is a high risk of cross contamination with the growing part of wheat. A wheat allergy can have many of the same symptoms as other food allergies, but there is also celiac disease which is caused by gluten the protien in wheat, in the long run celiac can cause stomatch cancer, celiac causes alot of the same symptoms as a wheat allergy except celiac won't cause anaphylaxis or allergy symptoms, then there is also gluten sensitivity and it can also cause the same symptoms except it won't cause stomatch cancer. Look up the chart for celiac disease it will have all the possible symptoms, oh and I forgot to mention my wheat allergy also causes brain fog, I was convinced I was getting memory loss but after not eating gluten my memory is almost back to normal. But if you have multiple food allergies or food sensitivity they are not connected they are just what your body is reacting to. The best thing to do is eliminating diet.
@CookieMonster_ oh and I also have issues with some canned food, I haven't figured out what it is so I avoid all canned foods
@CookieMonster_ yeah not everyone body built the same, we have to do our best to learn our body to feel better. I honestly feel my best on whole foods. But I start snacking of processes food and feel a little off.
I quit eating wheat and other grains 2 years ago. After the first two weeks, my arthritis pain disappeared and stayed away. I am almost 71 years old. I also started intermittent fasting 2 years ago (6 - 8 hour eating window).
Would like to know your meal plan.
Well done Jim. Keep it up.
I have Hashimoto’s and had read that eliminating wheat from my diet was recommended. Most likely due to the antigens attacking my own cells. Serendipitously I no longer get migraines! 🙂
Wonderful
I stopped getting my 5-7 days a week migraines after stopping wheat! Has absolutely changed my quality of life.
it is the same with me. I used to have migraines every month (so did my mom and my grandma - so I used to believe that it is inherited and I have to put up with it). When I stopped eating all grains - after 9 months I discovered a pack of headache pills in my handbag and only then realized that I no longer needed those.
High Oxalates also attack the thyroid. Sally K Norton has videos on this. Carnivore diet has actually helped Hashimoto disease to disappear.
Sebastian Fitness Page well if it works for you. Potatoes are high in Oxalates so I guess your trading one bad thing for another. However, I occasionally have a baked potato with lots of real butter on it. I think the choice is really what you feel is best for you. Just my humble opinion. Good luck on your journey and God bless.
My psoriasis went away when I cut out gluten, exellent video Dr. Berry, extremely informative ! 👍
My digestive issues resolved when I eliminated grains.
What do u replace them with daily?
What did you replace it with??
@@BurnedLeo Grains are not a necessity; not a gluten problem. I really think it was GMO and pesticides/herbicides. I saute shredded cabbage instead of spaghetti or zucchini in lasagna.
@@1cchuff thanks for the reply. I just wanted to tell you that I am in India and here wheat is our staple diet like in your country its animal protein. I am a vegetarian what source should I get the protein from if I exclude wheat from my diet?
Please help if you can.
@@BurnedLeo I'm sorry but can't help there. Primarily carnivore in my eating.
I was eating oatmeal every morning for cholesterol. Whole wheat bread and rolls. After seeing this video in Apr. I quit all grain products, I also stopped dairy intake as per another video.
My knees were getting to where I could not go up stairs or walk comfortably, getting up from the floor was very difficult.
Now my knees are 100% better, I have lost 35# and have no more acid reflex, also a Basal cell carcinoma on my forehead has healed .
Thank you Dr. Berry for the great info. in your videos I feel like a new man.
Oatmeal also contains wheat?
@@bcdadiaries7914 oats could get contaminated with wheat, for example due to the way it would be farmed, like with other neighboring farmland with wheat. Naturally oats should not contain any gluten. So I read.;)
Apparently, it's not just the gluten in grains, but other things. @@marieldejager8776
Recently situation was where I had to eat wheat - financial difficulties and wheat is "filling". I noticed within minutes awful pain in my arm muscles and severe joint pain. When I eat it, I can hardly walk. And my depression shoots thru the roof.
Same. 🙏
Right. When a kid, I read in some book that grains are essential food for birds and not for humans.
Great information. Many people wrongly believe that plants will just grow there and be eaten without fighting back. Very wrong.
It's that, or our physiology is fighting back because we ate it.
@@frankenz66 They both fight each other...
implying that animal foods have no anti-nutrients?
Thank you again! I've recently gone off my keto diet in a big way! With the lockdown and distance teaching its been easier to just eat what's available. You and the terrible symptoms I've been suffering have given me new resolve to do better.
what lockdown?
Here you go saving lives again. 🙄
Thank you Dr. Berry. I want to come to Nashville just to have a consultation with you. Thank you for your unparalleled work in making humanity simplify our issues nutritionally and how to overcome them.
Thanks for this reminder. Stress has me wanting pancakes, grilled cheese, and chocolate cake. I'm glad I'm deep into keto/carnivore because this extra stress months ago would have sunk me.
Search for keto pancake and chocolate 😁
I don't get cravings for that kind of stuff, but I catch myself munching on pecans, macadamia nuts, stuffed olives or cheese too often the last couple of weeks.
I may gain a couple of pounds, but at least it is staying keto!
@@matchachachoco8948 thanks, can't do almond flour or nut/coconut flours. That pretty much eliminates "bread" products which is fine. It would probably lead down a no good path.
@@kjkernSerendipity I think there is a chocolate cake recipe with chocolate, heavy cream, egg
Probably can’t eat any of that on a ventilator.
Dr. Berry, just commenting because I've been watching your videos and I love how you break it down for laymen to understand. Low Carb Down Under and USA do an OK job for someone with undergraduate experience, e.g., me, but for family, you are so much easier to follow. Same for the others with similar videos. Keep up the great work, we need more science-based physicians like you.
I began milling my own wheat and baking my own bread….no more store bought flour….I have never been healthier. My tummy is in great shape now, my skin has responded better than I could imagine healing my rosacea completely, no IBS. It has been the best decision of my life. Remember, Jesus compared Himself to the bread of life.❤ Throw out the store bought flour…that is the culprit not the wheat unless born with Celiac.
1) stimulates appetite
2) increase chronic inflammation
3) increase autoimmune response
4) block essential mineral absorption
5) allergic reactions
6) endocrine disrupters
7) attach to opioid receptors
J Perez generally yes, the theory is because it doesn’t carry as many nutrients as something like meat or eggs, making you hungrier than you need to be, so you eat more. But I was just summarizing the main points of the video.
J Perez yes, you stay hungry because there is not enough vitamins. You have to eat more of it, and eat it more often than if you cooked and egg or 2. Eating more wheat means more fat on your body for most people.
And I love the shi
I have been doing keto for 3 months (not for weight loss, mainly just to feel healthy) and decided to do a "cheat day". What a huge mistake. I felt so awful for the next few days. I literally feel so much better without the carbs and eating just one meal a day.
this is really motivating. thanks for sharing.
Please research keto. Not a good idea at all
Bro a low carb diet is low in calories and causes weakness
@@-SimonRiley just include more fats if needed
@@wilmer360tv that works for average folks, not for gymbros and athletes who have to be low body fat and shredded
You’re explaining all of this calmly but I’m screaming internally understanding how cascading all of these individual effects are, much less combined. 10/10.
I went through some degree of insulin resistance years ago and my doctor ultimately told me to forego medications that made me feel bad and read the south beach diet book. It literally changed my life. It fully explains how your body works with foods and basically follows this same idea you are telling. I don't have to eat a lot, I don't gain weight, I almost never get a headache, I don't feel drained, (that was my original complaint). I just wish I could convince my daughter and grandson of the same.
@Null it wasn't just what to eat, but how your bodys' functions work with different foods. It was well worth it for me.
Cut out sugar too?
@Panzerbeast most sugars. But understand there are many types of sugar and many hidden sugars. That's part of what it explains.
I wish I had seen this video years ago. Last year, my Dr and I found out that wheat was the root cause for my chronic fatigue, severe depression and anxiety, brain fog, constant migraines, joint pain, and rosacea. Which is an odd combo of symptoms. Turns out, I can't have wheat at all. I don't get intestinal pain, just brain and inflammation issues. The awful perpetual sleepiness, constant headaches, and inability to think clearly made me think I had a brain tumor or something. It was cumulative and kept getting worse over time until I was a shell of a person. Not eating wheat has basically given me my life back. I still get migraines from other triggers, but they're manageable, and I do deal with stress and minor seasonal depression issues, but to have all the other symptoms gone? It's been amazing. If I cheat and have a little wheat, I know I'm going to have to have a migraine the next day, need to nap a lot, and have anxiety and brain fog issues for 2-3 days after. I had no idea wheat could affect people in ways that weren't related to intestinal pain. So bizarre.
I had these exact same symptoms from dairy! I suffered for years and if I complained to a doctor about how exhausted I was, they'd always say, "Everyone's tired." Yeah, thanks for the helpful advice, Doc. At any rate a holistic doctor ran a test for common food allergens when all my other doctors wouldn't run allergy tests (they acted like I was asking them to personally pay for the test!). Long story short, now I do dairy-free Keto and feel fantastic. I hope you continue to feel the same. It's such a relief.
@@Jean-gc6pr same here, I used to get so angry with my Dr , she made me feel I was making it all up. It started in my 40’s , and now in her 40’s also my eldest daughter has same problems . You know your body and when things are just not right. Nobody else can tell you how you are feeling.
I had the same symptoms. Now, if I eat even a small piece of wheat product I suffer the consequences the next day! Glad I’m in control of how I feel most of the time.
I remember eating everything "Whole wheat" because my doctor recommended that to me. I have changed so much my choices when eating. THANKS DR. BERRY! YOU'RE AWESOME 🙏😊
I had a Dr tell me to avoid bacon and start eating edamame every day. I stopped going to that Dr.
Wheat has been one of the hardest things to quit for me. Whenever I 'relapse' with eating, I relapse to products made from wheat. I do think I notice I feel worse after eating it, and it's not just from being knocked out of ketosis.
Bread is my hardest thing not to have . But occasionally I will have a slice ,and nothing happens, but if I have say toast for breakfast then a sandwich for lunch , and biscuits ,I then am suffering. Gas , and pains ….. but I know not to go mad , just now and again.
Not to mention the chemicals sprayed all over them like round up ready products.
True
I have recently adopted a Keto lifestyle. Feel much better. Weight loss. Incredible what giving up bread and everything carbohydrates can do to your body.
My personal theory is it's not the wheat itself. Our ansisters ate wheat for thousands of years. The issues started in the industrial age, wheat was modified both genetically and during processing. Not to mention the pesticides, fungicides and herbicides. My husband has suffered from gerd for many, many years. I removed wheat from his diet, including all processed foods. He was able to stop taking his PPI's (which btw are only ment to be taken for a short time, but he was prescribed these for decades), stopped taking Tums/calcium bicarbonate and now only has a tsp of baking soda with a glass of water every now and then. My theory is that the inflammation arises from your bodies reaction to the GMO and poisons the wheat is sprayed with, not the actual wheat.
Sophia Taylor
Try Einkorn to test your theory. Would be interesting to see the outcome. I am totally fine with soured Einkorn.
I always say the same thing, it's they way it's grown and handle that it's affecting to us, not the actual food in it's original form.
"thousands of years" is literally nothing in terms of human evolution. We were eating almost nothing but meat for 2-3 million years prior to the advent of agriculture ~10kya, and this is what our bodies are adapted to. Humans are carnivorous apes, not graminivores.
Totally agree, same with milk products, they inject the cows with hormones , which causes us to get inflammation. I do wish all food was organic. Like it used to be. Trouble is organic foods are so much dearer.
@@andreafalconiero9089 believe the books pal 👍 thts sarcasm by the way
This is hugely important information that needs to be adhered to. Everything the good doctor described should have my picture on it. I'm the poster child for not eating wheat or grains. I wake up with sore joints when I haven't been working out due to the COVID 19 virus and now I just heard the answer to my problems. Thanks Doc for this great video!
Try kratom for the joint pain.. thanks 😀😷👍👌🤗🇺🇸

@@richardhowe4140 No don't take Kraton it is very addictive. And I mean addictive like heroin. Please don't touch it.
Once again another video you do that I just need to share with hopes and prayers that it may just change one persons mind on what they put in their body. Pray more that it reaches many thank you Dr. Berry for all you do.
I stopped eating bread just 6 days ago and my brain fog has completely gone, and I have so much more energy. I cannot believe simply taking bread out of my diet has had this much of an effect. I also stopped eating bread by accident, I just didn't have any bread to eat around me like I did before. This is a game changer and I'll be looking at stopping ALL wheat.
amazing! nice job. do you still eat rice?
I suffered an allergy, runny nose in morning and sneezing for 18 years. I thought it was pollen. By accident trying to fix a seperate problem, I cut out bread and then realised I felt so much better. I've been doing a little test cutting out all fruit, sugar and bread. Before I stopped bread again, I had some so called health whole grain bread and next morning was having issues with my nose again. Its now been almost a month since then without any and it's the 7th day I've not had to even blow my nose. I'll never go back. 😷👍
The same experience I have for 50 years. It was last year 2020 that I discovered that any food with wheat is the culprit. Now I am free. But just 4 weeks ago I tried wheat meal again, and the symptoms returns with vengeance. I abstain again and became free.
@@yeshir2001 I'm so pleased for you. 😁👍. I've been writing everything down for the last 1 and a half years and also for the last 2 weeks at different times I had a couple days bad allergy. On both occasions it took 5 days before I got allergy, it lasted for the day, but horrible. I thought I would see how I got on and it was from hot cross buns. 🥺. I've made sure I continue staying well clear of anything wheat 🥺
Fruit is good once it's not hybridized
Wow maybe thats my problem. Runny nose in the morning for the past 20 plus years
@@libertyforamericanow yeah. I didn't really look into any eating habits. I can't believe I still feel great to this day. I've been slowly adapting some of my other habits and writing stuff down to remind myself if anything goes wrong. I won't just rely on going to a Dr just to give me tablets lol. I hope you get to the bottom of yours soon, coz it's like a cloud lifting off your head 🙄🌈😄
#1 for me is a wheat allergy - hives & facial/tongue swelling. #2 Celiac type issues from the wheat. My GI tract is so much better without grains!
Sebastian Fitness Page mainly super draining. I get very sleepy. But now I can’t handle more than a bite or two because of the texture/taste now. I’ve been Keto/low carb for a little over a year now.
Sebastian Fitness Page I feel 10x worse when I have added carbs back into my diet. My GI system alone doesn’t tolerate a lot of them anymore.
Inflammation is a bitch!
This video is GOLDEN! Thank you Dr Berry!!
It sure made me gluten sensitive. I was in terrible shape. I had inflammation everywhere. All of this happened to me. Long story short had a Chiropractor to tell me what was wrong with me. Went to the medical doctor they thought I was crazy. Finally, researched and got off gluten completely and changed my life no symptoms now.
@Cookie Monster my main symptoms were sinus infections constantly , swelling of my feet had to get a wheel chair for my husband to roll me to the dermatologist she put me on heavy steroids and also told me to never put anything with gluten in my mouth again, also stated having all kind of skin issues which I never had before . I have not had a sinus infection since going off gluten and dairy products because of similar proteins in dairy it can effect your system just like gluten no more swelling or anything.
Yeah, I have Hashimotos. I am not allergic to gluten specifically, but definitely tested positive for wheat allergies. I now know that's the culprit for constant sinus issues and stomach problems when I was younger. I now stay away from it. Learned the hard way and ended up with an autoimmune disease. Thanks for the info!
So glad to see this, the "Keto Bread" people and the " If It Fits Your Macros" people need to see this. Thank you so much.
You are right! All this supposedly "Resistant Starch" is just as bad on the tummy and joints as the regular bread. Maybe even worse!
I stopped eating wheat, and anything else with gluten 7 years ago and my inflammation went way down. I started having far fewer migraines, and my joint pain disappeared. In 2019 I started Keto and IF and don't eat any grains at all. I have had maybe 3 or 4 migraines in the past year, a far cry from the 3 or 4 I used to have every month. Grains also spike my blood glucose terribly. I'm better off without them for sure. I'm in the best shape I've been in since my 20's. (I'm 55 now.)
I've been keto for the past year thanks in large part to Dr. Ken Berry videos.
I stopped eating food two years ago, and My brain cancer disappeared. I have also gained X-ray vision. Thanks a lot Doc
🤣🤣
Food or wheat?
Dr Berry , could you please make a video about what you eat in a day or what you eat in a week for variety…please.
It would be very much appreciated!
I have been really good not having wheat in my diet, then one of my neighbours made toast, but back on the wagon again....thank you for your videos, it could be just me but I would like to see more pictures and diagrams during your videos... great job, keep them coming.
After being on the keto diet I have lost 9 kg in 3 months,I use to be 116kg,thanks to you Dr KenDBerry.
Food-like substance. That’s the term I’ve used for years. I love it!
We already ran this experiment, back in ancient Egypt, where wheat was the center of their commerce, diet, and religion. Everyone from laborers on up to the Pharos had massive tooth decay and malnutrition, as their diets consisted of wheat, beer and honey, with some vegetables, but almost no meat. To their credit they did have toothbrushes, but to little avail, as the problem was more internal than external.
And my ancestors paid the price in backbreaking physical labor.

Thank you Dr Berry from Louisiana
Hello Dr. Ken. Good morning. I am Dr. Prakash Chhajed, a Psychiatrist and Holistic medicine practitioner in India. I appreciate the video and information furnished by you. These are absolutely correct. I have reversed a host of chronic diseases by advising my patients Dietary changes (not using wheat & other grains ), lifestyle changes and addressing the micro nutritional needs for the body.
I have successfully reversed Type 2 diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, fatty liver, PCOS, mental health problems e.g. Depression & schizophrenia, etc, chronic acid - peptic problems, ulcerative colitis, autoimmune issues e.g. systemic sclerosis/ scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis, and Hashimoto's hypothyroidism and many more.
Where is the "LOVE" button!! If more people only knew, the world would be a healthier place!! Please watch "The Magic Pill", it is a free documentary on RUclips. It is 1 hour and 30 minutes long and will be the best video you ever watch, ref to health, diet and nutrition. It follows 5 or 6 people around and you get to actually watch them change with changing their diet. It is amazing and will/should change the way you eat forever.
I also face respiratory problems from last one year and digestive issue too like bloating, gas, indigestion. Should I stop eating wheat. I'm from india haryana. Please reply
Wonderful video. Hope people watch and share
Thank you Dr. Barry for sharing this
valuable information!
Wheat has been so dramatically hybridized that it’s not the food that people were eating 50-60 years ago and before; it has a very different chromosomal profile; the classic genetic modification people rightly should fear.
Dean Riley Do you think that Einkorn would be an exception? It is supposed to have 14 chromosomes, rather than the usual 28.
Another interesting thing of note is that breads used to often be made with fermented grains. Fermenting is one of the best ways to isolate antinutrients. Id drink german, non glyphosate soaked wheat(beer) before id ever eat it!
@@BlasphemST Yes I was going to mention the fermentation. Until they came out with the instant yeasts a decade or two back, they (as traditionally done) fermented the dough over night, typically 7 hours. The fermentation neutralizes the problems with the grains and makes them human safe. Another method is to sprout the grains (typically soak in water for 24hrs).
The hybridization (25 thousand iterations!?) is also a concern of course, as is genetic modification of the food. We have NO guarantee that such modifications are not harmful in some way for the human body. Another huge problem with GMO is that it's "RoundUp Ready" - they spray the crops with RoundUp JUST BEFORE HARVEST, and we really don't want those type of toxins in out bodies.
So sourdough made from spelt or older grain types is probably fine for us to consume, and very similar to what was eaten 2000 years ago. However it's still carbohydrates of course, and especially if we're attempting to recover from decades of poisonous diet (SAD) and the bodily damage caused by such super high carb. diets, it's best to avoid all grains completely.
Grace; apparently there were two common wheat types back 2000 odd years. One had 14 and the other 28 chromosomes. There are videos on RUclips all about that. But yep, I'll eat Einkorn or similar once I find a supply of those grains/flours (Aus). At thee moment I buy spelt sourdough but it's only as a treat (one piece), and not every day. It's easiest (meaning no unnatural appetite) to have none at all.
Almost none of our food is what it was fifty years ago, whether it be fruit, grains, vegetables, dairy, or meat. All the mineral deficient fertilizers, pesticides, amd GMO don't help either. Air and water are worse as well. And government which is supposed to look out for the citizen bails out the industries causing the problems.
Grace Cotton Much of the modern wheat has something like 46 chromosomes to make the wheat shorter and with a bigger seed head; a mutation that wheat wasn’t meant to be. I have used einkorn which is a safe alternative.
It makes me swell up in my hands and lower legs thanks dr berry nailed it
Michael Beth Medsker Would this be due to water retention, caused by wheat?
@@gracecotton9819 not sure
I would be curious to know the differences in wheat digestibility when it is fermented. Our ancestors always fermented their grains before processing into bread.
Look around, spot the slim person, test the glucose levels of the people, most are pre diabetic.
@@letscook63 you need to do A1C to check for that. Also you'd want fasting labs for glucose
@Sumeria Seems they are trying to kill us all in the US! Sickos!
As always, I'm drawn to your nutritional advice because it just "makes sense" Thank you for all the great information.
Thanks for all you do, Dr. Berry
Excessive carbs also causes painful inflammations in just a day!
And yes i know i said excessive but that's just something to think about.
Buy this man’s book. No Grain No Pain. It saved my life. I had severe pain from arthritis until I got away grain.
When I eat bread I get the following symptoms:
depression
brain fog
low mood and motivation
Concentration problems
headache
Eczema
Dry skin
Joint pain
cravings/ food obsessions
I AGREE! I have Celiac disease and Lymphocyte colitis, ugh. I have honed my died to NO WHEAT!
I just bought a house and had to put all my stuff in storage and by the time I moved in the virus panic hit. There was almost no meat left to buy so we had to buy a lot of grains. My whole body feels like a nightmare. I finally found a local meat market that had some beef. Going to try to reset so I can take care of my patients and not become one
AshPooh1319 Congrats on your new house. Wow your ordeal sounds so stressful. I know I would have been triggered and started eating bad stuff...I'm more afraid of getting triggered than I am of the pandemic. lol
In the east we've been eating all kinds of grains for generations and most us have never encountered any problem.
American farming practices are fucked up
Two words buddy white rice.
@@craigemery8422 Please don't use the 'f' word on wholesome sites.
@@bcatypical its RUclips, are you serious?
Please inform us what is the alternative for whole-grain and wheat what is the healthier choice
Dr Berry’s videos have helped me radically change my life.
Thanks for all the great information you provide Dr. Berry!
Great info. Dr. Berry, your time and effort on sharing id's greatly appreciated!
Thank you for enlightening us
I quit eating wheat a month ago and I’ve noticed that the dark blue circles under my eyes are nearly gone! I’ve struggled with them my whole life and now they’re almost completely gone. I’ve also noticed less joint pain, inflammation and gas. I used to have chronic gas and bloating from wheat. It’s also loaded with glyphosate, as are other grains including corn and oats, etc. Thank you Ken, you’re the very best!
Is eliminating wheat and dairy good for ulcerative colitis?
I never eat wheat, but I do use high quality flour to create my own breads and I feel fine. I'm looking into growing teff, buckwheat, or amaranth to mill my own flour. These flours aren't like the mass-produced flours that you buy in stores or that restaurants use. They have a very short shelf live once milled, and are loaded with nutrients like protein, iron, copper, B6's, etc. I don't think any of them contain glutamine.
Can u name the grains??
When I was younger in late 6o, s thru 1981 I was bulimic. I ate wheat like a madwoman even spoonfuls of wheat germ you bought to sprinkle on even more grain products like oatmeal. I was a mess for 11 years. In 2011 I read Wheat Belly and changed my life. Explained so much like depression and anxiety. The bulimia. Weight piling on. Went Paleo then. Keto 2 years now. Wheat and grains are truly poisonous.
Wonderful as always! Thank you!
I’ve just started the keto diet back in January and as of this morning I’ve lost 37 pounds and went from a size 44 to a size 38 pants and I’m feeling the best I have in years!!
Consuming less calories will also do that.
@@tumanjaibholenath8845 not the same as getting the body into ketosis.
Dr. Berry rocks! I wish I had this info 30 years ago. Got rid of the grains a couple years ago but the damage is done.
instead grains what do you eat??
@@Suman522i1 Meat baby! Lots of meat, eggs, bacon and butter.
Thank you. I read Wheatbelly. Very informative.
For the last month, I've been eating entire boxes of couscous every other day...
I've been lying in bed extra time and feeling nothing but bloated and in pain recently. Now I know, FOR SURE, what it's caused by.
This, and an unusual amount of almonds...
I'm 18, too. So the effects shouldn't be as bad and as lasting as this is, but it is!
It's been 20+ hours since my last couscous box. Never buying it again. The bloating, gas, and pain is still here. It stays bad, then worse, then horrible, then bad and so on.
God, please make it stop!
''Food-like Substances'' - I'm going to start using that term.
I'm watching this video after eating a bowl of wheat cereal and practically going into a damn coma an hour later. Of course this isn't an isolated event, this has been happening for year and years. But I'm done. Today was just extra ridiculous considering prior to the bowl I'd been up for a good few hours, stretching, doing laundry, vacuuming, showering, studying and then I decided to have a bowl. Within about an hour I was on the couch feeling as if I'd been drugged. - the fatigue was so extreme I felt almost paralysed, in and out of weird dreams and just feeling so heavy. Eventually got up and felt so drowsy and muggy. I've been meaning to throw this box of cereal out but always argue that I dont want to waste the food I've bought but I'm done. Even reading back what I've just wrote, its obvious what's going on. My body cannot handle this stuff.
Everything what's sounding like weed is not good I tell you! ;)
In fact, I have stopped it for 4 days. I really just stop eating every bread done with white wheat and that was the game changer to my life! Really I thing it is nothing about wheat but something special to white wheat. No fatigue anymore. I am 100% awake during the day. I have tested everything.. no coffee, no sugar etc... stopping white wheat changed the game!
Let me give you another reason not to eat wheat if you have an hernia surgery or any other bowel surgery. I recently had to revert back to eating wheat secondary to financial crises. Note: I will not do this again! Post surgical, I have several strictures, or reduced expandable elasticity to my intestines. After a week of this, the wheat formed a blockage so my digestion shut down. I almost died! It took a lot of stool softeners and liquids only for several days before it finally cleared up. Not only that, my joints hurt so back, I could barely walk the short distance to the bathroom and back. I will do an extended 2 -3 week fast next time! It's better to live off the fat of the land than to even put one bite of wheat in my mouth!
Make a video on what foods we should eat.
Exactly
Excellent, Dr. Berry!. My first baby steps into Keto a couple of years ago was to stop eating wheat and all grains! The effect was so dramatic that "Keto" was easy for me after that. WHEAT BAD! (in my caveman voice)
Good video doctor, thanks.
Thank you for the pertinent information.
Oh, and you were great on Mama's Family!
Great Video! Is there an infographic reflecting these? It would be great to have it printed out on a wall.
2:09 I remember this back in my gluten eating days. For some reason I felt it more with pasta compared to bread. I would feel ridiculously hungry after eating pasta, like almost as if I haven't eaten anything. I always used to tell my parents that pasta made me hungrier and wasn't satisfying and they dismissed it or thought I was lying.
Turns out I was not so wrong. All the other carbs would at least satisfy me to a certain extent, potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice and so on. The pasta or bread would make me feel like I'm starving.
I feel this way after eating lasagna or spaghetti. Fortunately the only restaurant I like is SO expensive. Haven't eaten there in 5 months. Now that I'm back on eating well won't be going there for a long time.
My grandpa died at age of 98 and my grandma died at age of 104. Both of them were mainly living only on grains. Take it from me. Just be consistent on consuming whole organic not processed grains, and eat the grains with reasonable quantity. They are super food, full of nutrients and minerals .vitamins. one another quick note . When you consume grains as bread just don't forget to dough it with sourdough starter . This bacteria set the beneficial minerals free from the phytic acid. Do as I told and I'm pretty sure You will thank me .
agree
You know!
@@carlos-ee6vv yes guys. mr berry is misleading people. i think its cos he is Keto advocate. starch like grains and potatoes are some of the healthiest whole foods. humans have been eating those for thousands of years.
They might of lived a long life with no problems, BUT that is not the case for a lot of people. It’s a shame but true. Keeping a food diary ,you can see what is the problem. And you can sort it. But for some people they don’t get affected by food they are the lucky ones.
Some Asian and European populations with the highest cigarette smoking rates, live very long…are you gonna recommend cigs for longevity next?
Great video Dr Berry! Thank you.
