Parroting Dr Berg notes as i usually do best: Vitamin D is the most important vitamin! It’s a fat-soluble vitamin involved in 10% of our genetics. Vitamin D won’t work unless you have enough magnesium, the second most important nutrient. Magnesium is involved with 300 different enzymes and plays a vital role in regulating excess calcium. Magnesium glycinate supplements have the best absorption rate. The more vitamin D you take, the more magnesium you’ll need. Some negative side effects associated with vitamin D, such as nausea, heart palpitations, muscle cramps, and headaches, are actually symptoms of a magnesium deficiency. Don’t take vitamin D without the important cofactor, vitamin K2. Vitamin D helps you absorb calcium, but you need vitamin K2 to drive it into the bones and teeth to keep it out of the soft tissues. Vitamin K2 is best for calcium buildup. Take 100 mcg of vitamin K2 for every 10,000 IUs of vitamin D3. Zinc is another important cofactor that helps you convert cholesterol into vitamin D. If you’re taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D, you should also take 20 mg of zinc. One of the biggest vitamin D mistakes is not taking enough! You need at least 6,000 to 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 every day. Vitamin D2 does not work like vitamin D3. The vitamin D detected in the blood is not the active form. This means you could have normal blood levels of vitamin D but still have vitamin D deficiency. Statins and steroids can inhibit your ability to make vitamin D and its ability to work in your body. The best time to get vitamin D from the sun is between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Thank you Dr Berg! 😺👍
Who else has a heart full of gratitude for Dr. Berg for bringing on the truths for our ability to get healthy again!!? Thank you so much Dr. Berg for caring & helping the - 🌎🌍🌏❣️ 💚
@ that’s what I told my doctors office also then they told me it would be about a year or more wait time to actually see the person who is supposed to be my doctor
I take 6000IU a day, along with K2, magnesium and zinc. I strained my back a few weeks back, I took an anti-inflammatory med to help but it only reduced the pain briefly. It wasn't until I upped my Vitamin D to over 15000UI daily that I saw improvements. Happy to report I'm back to normal now.
YES Vitamin D will fix a backache by making all your muscles stronger, i have seen old men walking bent over for years stand straight and walk without pain after taking D-3 for days.
Thank you, again, Dr. Berg. I'm going to start 50000 D3, 500 magnesium, 100 zinc & 500 K2 this weekend. Have breast cancer. I also take Eliquis 5mg 2x/day, Lisonopril 10mg & Amlodipine 10mg for blood clots and HBP. Dealing with DM as well and have brought the A1C down from 14.8 to 9.2 in 7 mos. just with diet. Its crazy...I was feeling great and then my right leg swelled up. I went to the ER and they kept me for 3 days to find out I have all these illnesses. I'm 59 like you. This has all been very exhausting - dozens of appointments, a new prescription almost every time I see a doctor and they could care less what side effects their meds cause me, so I decided to take back some control and see how doing things a more natural way will do. Thank you for all the knowledge you share with us. ❤
I was going to say, my Oncologist said all breast cancer patients are vitamin D, deficient. This helps a lot. I found out United Healthcare won't cover D3, so they had filled D2 for a few years. D2 is plant based and didn't do much for my D levels. Now I know why and the other supplements that I need to take in addition. Thanks again Dr Berg. My Drs love you too. I also do intermittent fasting and eat Keto/Meets Mediterranean, omaze/1x a day. It's helped me so much ! ☆☆☆☆☆
You should also consider taking TURMERIC (anti inflammatory), CAYENNE PEPPER (blood thinner), APPLE CICER VINEGAR with the mother (cleans gut) and overall health.
I'd been taking 5000 IU for over a year when I learned about K2 and added that. Only in the last month have I learned about magnesium and added that. Once I started taking magnesium a few things started to improve. Doctors never talk about vitamins or supplements. In fact, I realized that in all the years of discussing statins, the only thing discussed was how my LDL wasn't at goal. Never do I remember anything about diet and carbs or inflammation or vitamin D synthesis and statins. Absolutely nothing except LDL and HDL.
@@Crupett-c3ctry and get chocolate seeds and roast them at low fire 5 minutes, after that peel the skin and there You can have plenty of magnesium, hope You can get some .
Also dark green leafy greens (like spinach, kale, collards...) add magnesium to your diet. As complicated as hemoglobin and chlorophyll are, there is only one difference between their molecules: their CENTERS. Hemoglobin's center is IRON; Chlorophyll's center is MAGNESIUM. Therefore, all your body needs to do to get hemoglobin while ingesting chlorophyll is to remove the magnesium, replacing it with iron. Eat your greens, follow up with an apple 🍎 or red meat to build your blood.
You also need zinc. Doctors don't understand about supplements like Dr. Berg. Doctors can't talk about supplements when they don't understand about them.
The concept of health in The 23 Former Doctor Truths completely explains this, and it’s honestly changed the way I think about my well-being. I wish I had read it sooner because it offers insights that could have saved me years of misunderstanding health. This book doesn’t just inform-it empowers you to take meaningful, lasting control over your health journey.
This Doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos .. I respect this man immensely. 👍👍👍
@@matiasj.gonzalezolivi171 yeah and?? The doctors I've dealt with who HAVE are VASTLY undereducated regarding vitamins and minerals. IDC what degree this man has or doesn't have, he is ACCURATE AF!! Has saved me when "real" doctors only gave me antidepressants!! I had 7 vitamin deficiencies!!! No wonder I was depressed! Don't dismiss someone out of hand bc they lack a piece of paper. This dude has done his homework and then some. You would be wise to research what he is saying and see for yourself!
Because of you, I stopped using sunblock and 5000IU vitD3 only. I bought your 10000 D3 K2 (+ magnesium and zinc) for a daily basis and stopped avoiding the sun. Thank you.
@@lovemyself3039 just wondering if you used to wear sunglasses extensively too or if your avoidance was purely “skin protection/cancer prevention” mentality
@@Infiniti25i’ve heard someone of the keto comunauty explain that your eyes need to « see » the sun for the brain to tell the body what to do with the sun rays. So I do not wear sunglasses 😊.
Dr. Eric Berg and Dr. Sten Ekberg have become my go-to doctors. I've chosen to follow their advice (since they align with each other) and disregard input from others.
Dr. Eckberg has the first one I saw, that opened my eyes, and got me started on the Keto Carnivore journey. Him, Dr. Berg, and Dr. Burns have helped tremendously.
Been taking high dose for 4 yrs and still feel improvements day to day. Thank you for sticking with a subject thar is so important and likely ours your online status at risk (from "them"). Kudos to you Doc .. so many others do not dare.
my Arteries was getting Plaque yrs ago I learned to take Magnesium d3 and k2 and zinc years ago I am older now they did ultrasound on my carotids. And their absolutely clean the girl was so good she showed me we could see the walls there was zero plaque. Now I know why. Thank you for your videos I love them.
Thank you! Heading to Vitamin Shoppe to get K2 MK7…I’m in remission from breast cancer and need all the help I can get - naturally! You’re the best! Thank you for all you do ♥️
I'm in remission from breast cancer as well and I take Dr. Bergs 10,000 IU of vitamin D/K2 and it increased my vitamin D level to 90. My oncologist told me that it's getting to high and to go down to 2000 IU. NO I'm going to continue taking it!
@@bjean64 No. the burden of proof is on YOU. I’m not your keeper. Grow up and do your own research. I simply say I need all the help I can get naturally, and you twisted it into me proclaiming that a specific item is natural. Stop twisting words.
Wow. This was very helpful. I'm iron deficient and low in Vitamin D. I've been taking Iron & Vitamin D at the same time. I'll space it out and take my iron in the morning and Vitamin D in the afternoon. Thank you Dr. Berg, you're the best!
Don’t take Iron & D3 at the same time because they compete, wow I had no idea. Thanks for letting me know I will take them at different times each day from now on
Good, solid information as always. I got myself Vitamin D lamp and use it daily for 5 min. It's easy, free once the lamp is bought (that's the expensive part) and convenient. I also use magnesium lotion, apparently magnesium is best absorbed through the skin. I can also make my own magnesium oil from magnesium chloride bath flakes. Just mix them with water and it's ready to use. I get Life Extensions Super K that has different forms of vitamin K in high doses. That combo really makes me feel stronger. Eva
I’m afraid I have multiple sclerosis due to stress and low vitamin D levels, but I remember 2 years ago I was nearly paralyzed from hips down, my legs were barely holding me, I was shaking for 2 months…..but then we went to Thailand with my gf and got a nasty sunburn from spending time on the strong sun… but guess what…my symptoms completely dissapeared 2 days later.
This was an excellent informative video. Do you have a list of all of these items you talked about, how much of each and what time of day we should take them?
Another excellent video full of important information. I've been taking 4,000 IU's per day with all the other stuff (K2, zinc, magnesium), but now i'll definitely increase that to 7,000. Thanks, Doc!
Following all all your advise over the past 3 years, Im able to maintain my 6'5" Stature at 260lbs , still built like a big tight end, at the ripe old age of 46. Thanks Dr Berg
@@dontrend5956 depends on which country you're living in, what your daily life is like, as well as access to nutritious food & so on. Our age in years is not the same as our biological age either. I see obese children eating highly processed diets in 'developed countries' like the US who will be 'old' & dead at a very young age if things don't turn around for them. I also have seen very young children in 'developing countries' hunched over like elderly people due to the hard labour they have to perform to keep their families fed.
Good tips! One other suggestion: Some folks may have genetic variants that reduce their ability to utilize vitamin D. Some of these (pretty rare) are so serious they are diagnosed in childhood, but others are more subtle. You can have "normal" levels of D and still have all the risks of someone who is deficient. This can be confirmed genetically (usually CYP2R1, VDR, and/or CYP27B1 genes), but one easy indicator (confirm results with your doctor) is to get 24-OH D and PTH (parathyroid hormone) tested at the same time. These should be in an inverse ratio. Generally, when your body is getting enough D (25 OH D above the middle of the range), your PTH will be below the middle of the normal range. Because I have some vitamin D resistance, I try to keep my PTH in the middle of the lower third of the reference range by supplementing D (and K2 MK7 and magnesium citrate) and checking the ratio every few months. I started at 10k IU/day, and now I'm stabilized at 3 50K and 4 5K supplements a week - about 24k IU/day.
Yes! Vitamin D won’t work unless you have enough magnesium, the second most important nutrient. Magnesium is involved with 300 different enzymes and plays a vital role in regulating excess calcium. Magnesium glycinate supplements have the best absorption rate. The more vitamin D you take, the more magnesium you’ll need!
@@Drberg So if I understand you correctly, we should take all these vitamins together. I was taking D3 and K2 in the morning, and magnesium and zinc at night, but I was also taking iron in the morning. So I am going to switch my D3 and K2 intake to evening because of the conflict with iron and to see if they work better going together with magnesium and zinc. Thank you for all you do!
I had no idea that magnesium and K2 were so essential for vitamin D to work properly, or that common mistakes like taking D2 or using sunscreens could hinder its benefits. Definitely rethinking my approach to supplements. Thanks for sharing such valuable info!
Some doctors give D2 but no K2. If they give magnesium, they give the magnesium oxide version, which has the least inviolability. They refuse to listen to what a patient says. Stupid patient doesn't have a degree.They say you need to stop reading things on the internet and listen to the eXpErTs. The supplements are fine. The problem must be your genes as to why the supplements aren't working as intended. You lack this newest drug out of the lab that I get kickbacks for. It'll fix the problems from your bad genes. It's sCiEnCe!
@@Drbergexcellent presentation indeed! I just heard recently though that we should take magnesium in the morning and zinc in the evening. Magnesium is muscle building. Taking it in the evening is against Nature, apparently.
@@Drberg dr berg, hi my name is alex. I am your audience for a year. I want to buy your products but it doesn't ship to hong kong. how can I buy it? thank you
Last time I tried a vitamin D with K2 my stomach couldn't take it. I can only use spray vitamin D 3. Recent blood test said level 75. Not sure where I go from here. Any advice
Don't bow down to anyone. Dr Berg does good work, shares a lot with people, but that does not make him a god or infallible. Better you trust yourself, 100%. Very few people have any kind of trust in themselves.
There you go again being very accurate. I was taking magnesium ox but switched to magnesium glycinate. It was recommended I take Magnesium Ox because of severe leg/feet cramps and it really helped. When I switched to magnesium glycinate I noticed some slight cramps occurring again but when I started taking D3, the cramps started being more severe again. Guess I need to up the intake of magnesium glycinate.
Thank you so much for all your great work! You are the best health advisor I know 🌹Being a cancer survivor, I noticed that my doctors never advise about lifestyle, diet and vitamins. Your videos are so to the point, backed up by science and by common sense, all the information I need - I highly appreciate everything you do 🙏🏻 keep those videos coming! 🌹👌🏻
The key word is: uptake. Thanks for the K2 and magnesium info. Other than that... the shrinkflation at present is appalling. One brand where I used to get a 650 count is now relabeled and is a sad 300 count - at about the same price/in the same bottle. We are being robbed.
When greed encourages playing with people’s health so blatantly, and more broadly everyday, you just have to wonder how self-hating do those people have to be? Benefiting from others suffering (there are millions who can’t afford vitamins,) is not sanity or humane. Also, I’m sticking up on everything I can before January 6th. Who knows what will take place and I’ll use it eventually.
I love that Dr. Berg's product take out the complication of figuring out what take together. His Vit D has everything he mentioned needed in the right dosages. It doubled by daughter's very low D in a short amount of time.
@@MoDrox-hy2xxmagnesium oxide I believe. Magnesium (Bis)Glycinate is really palatable, a lot of tablet form supplements have magnesium stearate as an ingredient.
Okay I found magnesium peroxide is mgo2 so you were taking that and it was giving you a headache and palpitations and you switch to glycinate apparently and all was good thankfully ....if I understand it correctly
@@MoDrox-hy2xx glycinate has better absorption and less side effects that the cheaper forms like oxide has. If you need magnesium for brain function then you would give Magnesium L-Threonate a go
Eat healthy, exercise, take baby aspirin as well as vitamin tabs, eat fermented cabbage such as Sauerkraut & kimchi, take one spoon of extra virgin olive oil and apple cider vinegar, drink kefir yogurt drink & matcha green tea and sleep well. That's what I've done and just celebrated my 70th birthday lately. 😊
Hi Dr. Berg, I recently learned about LPS (lipopolysaccharide) biosynthesis pathways through a stool test, and it helped me understand some of the symptoms I’ve been struggling with, like memory problems, anxiety, social discomfort, and even the inability to experience pleasure . Could you please make a video explaining LPS, its impact on the brain and body, and what steps we can take to reduce its effects? I think this could really help a lot of people dealing with similar issues. Thank you!
THANK YOU FOR THIS INFORMATON. I TAKE MAG MALEATE AS IT IS THE ONLY ONE THAT DOES NOT CAUSE DIAHERRHIA FOR ME. I ALSO TAKE D3 SO I WILL KEEP THAT IN MIND AND THANKS FOR ALL THE INFORMATION YOU HAVE OFFERED. YOU REALLY HELPED ME DISCOVER A SPORTS INJURY IN MY LEG THAT WAS CAUSING ME GREAT PAIN AND I COULD OT FIGURE OUT WHERE IT HAPPENED, UNTIL LISTENING TO YOUR VIDEO. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP. I WAS ON ONE OF THOSE HANGING MACHINES AND MY ONE FOOT SLIPED OUT OF THE HOLDER, AND I SLID BACKWARDS ALMOST HITTING MY HEAD EXCEPT MY LEFT FOOT WAS STILL IN THE HOLDER, YANKING MY LEG TO STOP ME. I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT EXCEPT TO PUT THE MACHINE IN THE TRASH. I LATER BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE SEVERE PAIN IN MY LEFT LEG AND STILL DO, AND WENT TO THE DR. AND FINALLY TOOK AN MRI WHICH SHOWED A BONE SPUR DEVELOPING ON MY LEFT HIP JOINT. SO I NOW SUFFERE WITH THAT AS A RESULT. I TAKE MANY SUPPLEMENTS AND HAVE FOR YEARS, KEEPING ME ALIVE I GUESS. SO ANYTHING YOU SHARE I ALWAYS LOOK FOR AND SHARE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
As per your advice, I have been taking vitamin D3 for the last 3 months 60000IU and I have seen a lot of difference in my condition. I had a problem of autoimmune disease and now I feel that it is completely cured and now I also take zinc, magnesium, k2 and vitamin A along with it. i love you sir Thank you uuu
A lot of users ask about the amount of magnesium they should take. From my point of view: Magnesium is always individual. Some need more, others less. The stress of everyday life or a lot of sport alone means that the body needs more magnesium. And now vitamin D is added to the mix! Vitamin D is a so-called magnesium thief, it needs it for its own conversion and activation and takes it from the body's stores, which are sometimes unable to carry out their normal tasks. Often the stores are not sufficient, and magnesium can only be partially absorbed through diet. Possible consequences for some: headaches, muscular problems, unpleasant agitation, nausea, and sometimes heart palpitations. This is often due to a magnesium deficiency and not to vitamin D. The problem can therefore be solved. The stores can be filled well with a supplementary daily amount of approx. 300-800 mg (Mg is individual). It is recommended to take Mg in smaller portions (approx. 150 mg) throughout the day. The body can then absorb and process it immediately. The magnesium forms glycinate and citrate are highly bioavailable. Citrate affects some people's intestines (hence smaller portions), and has a predominantly muscular effect, while glycinate has a more calming effect (in the evening). For example, I take both alternately, sometimes in combination. By trying things out and listening to yourself, everyone can find out their amount.
Thank you so much! For some reason, he did not explain this. Your explanation was very detailed and appreciated. I'm going to go to other videos, etc. and see what the daily amount recommended for magnesium is and maybe up that a bit as they're usually on the very low side. Thanks again.
I'm 78 take 8000iu of vit D3 (because I'm not very big) 100mcg of K2 mk7, and 200 mg magnesium because I eat magnesium rich food. I'm off my heart meds (Afib). I feel amazing.
Good morning Dr Berg, I take 50000 D3 with 500 K2 with Zink 25Mg also has Copper, I also take Magnesium 800Mg at night . I sleep good and wakeup fresh every morning, I live in WI we don't get much sun here, You have changed my health for good. Thank you Sir.
What type of magnesium are you taking? Could you also tell me what brand you're using. I'm going crazy trying to decide which one is best. Thanks so much
Dr Berg your a saviour for me, changed my life completely. I was on severe depression for years and randomly found your videos and binge watching them. I have cured my depression and living a happy life😊. Its been a year i am following your guidelines for optimum health. Love from India😊.
I have to say, Dr. Berg is the best. We are blessed to discover so many good professional people willing to teach. Realyl; our health is our responsibility which includes educating ourselves to know what good health IS. Of course; "Let food be your medicine.." That is always #1
I have my notifications set to give me ALL of your videos, Im not getting any new ones. I came to look and you have several I wasn't notified of. 😡 Whats up with that? I've lost 200 lbs and kept it off for 7 years from watching your videos. Im sure youve helped SO many ppl. I hope this blocking or whatever stops so more ppl find you! ❤
I do 20K IU of D3 daily, plus 200mcg of K2 MK-7, 1,500mg Magnesium Glycinate, 1,000mg of Vitamin C, B complex of Methylated type and 100mcg of Zinc Picolinate
@@KingJuliannnn It to some kind depends from person to person. But toxic amounts of Mg are listed to be somewhat higher. However, I for myself would not take as much, especially not on a regular basis.
Last few years I started having quite low diastolic blood pressure values, between 55 - 60 usually. Would taking magnezium glycinate affect that, making it go down even further? that'd be scary 😅 how much Magnezium would you recommend for 10.000 IU D3?
As I was watching this I was reading the back of my Dr. Berg vitamin D3-k2 vitamins and the ingredients are exactly the same amounts of everything he just mentioned. Everything all in one place. Thank you Dr. Berg! 🤙🏻
I just want to express my appreciation for your work. You share insights that are generally hard to obtain and which «society» should adhere to, communicate and facilitate for instead of letting people in their ignorance unwittingly get all kinds of deceases which could easily be avoided. I have talked to a couple of doctors about this and it´s not neccesarily lack of knowledge on their part, but more that most people don´t understand it anyway as it both requires interest and some dedication. The knowledge needs to be implemented in some kind of health program and this is not prioritized as it would require significant changes which would disrupt the interests of commercial companies which make a fortune on reactive medicines or fast foods. I have hope for the future though as youth seem to be more focused on and interested in these topics.
I recently bought dr bergs vitamin d and after weeks of not feeling much different I read some of the negative reviews and it was all people talking about the bad type of magnesium in it or other stuff about the zinc so anyway it’s really irrelevant maybe I just wanted to say thanks for the video bc I tried to google some things about it and came to the conclusion there were reasons you added them in so this helped address those doubts. Very informative. I will probably keep taking vitamin d until I finish my supply and continue to watch bergs videos
Big thanks from germany!!! 🇩🇪 I've already ordered Viramin D3 and K2. Now I also will order magnesium and zinc. I have glaucoma, hair loss and lower back pain. Maybe it will work well and it will get better. Thank you so much for all these precious informations. 🙏🏻
I don't know how much i can thank. I was diabetic and i had acid reflexe they are all gone just by following your informations. Dr Berg thank you so much really you have changed my life.
I have suffered with BPH for years and was about to take medication to reduce my urinary symptoms. I started taking 20000 iu of D3 along with Mag and Zinc, and within 3 weeks, my symptoms have all but gone away. I can pee normally again. THANKS DR. BERG.
I've been taking 30,000 iu a day with K2 in Vancouver. I'm definitely deficient in magnesium. I have to buy all my vitamins from the united states because Canada has extremely low doses in all our vitamins.
I lost dr Erig Berg on RUclips, I use to see each and every of his videos, not anymore, unless I write it down on the search dr erig berg , that's the only I can follow him and get his videos, it's like they don't his honest and helping millions of people through Natural way , keep going dr Berg we all connected to you and we appreciate the great work you doing for millions of people on the planet, I can imagine,
I was not sure about the magnesium until I watched this, had some confusion on it. Thanks for clearing that up. I've been using D3+K2/zinc for several years which I always take at first light. I'm here to say I've had no more developing joint pain since improving my D3 levels. I just wish I had taken heed years earlier!
Common vitamin D mistakes include not taking enough, neglecting cofactors like magnesium and K2, using D2 instead of D3, and misunderstanding toxicity risks. Proper dosage, timing, and complementary nutrients are crucial for optimal vitamin D benefits.
So you say it's better to go to the Sun without nothing? With the dry skin? Or is there an natural oil we could put to protect and hydrate / help with the sun getting a tan an vitamin D ? (maybe hazelnut oil?)
Been taking 20,000 IUs for a little over a year now and I've noticed a lot of improvements. I might need to up my Zinc intake but I've also been taking a higher dosage of Magnesium for about 7 months. So far so good.
Growing up i was a typical Irish freckle face girl. I could not go in the sun without burning. Now as a 63 year old… I practice Carnivore lifestyle and zero carb, I can be outside in a bathing suit in midday summer sun for three hours and not get sunburned. Something about the high fat zero carb helps my skin.
Thanks Dr. Berg. Please do a deep dive into how Vit D3 is made...? I've got D3 made with mushrooms, lichen as the source. Is this normal ? Please do a video. Also, a safe version (brand) that is on the market and not made overseas that you would recommend.
Im so frustrated with my cardiologist, and my fathers. I have asked about taking magnesium glycinate and K2 and they say no because K2 can cause clots and strokes run in our family. My dad has beginning stages of calcification ☹️. He had a stroke at 46 and changed his eating and walks everyday, he is now 73❤ I am 50 and overweight in menopause, with his genetics by blood test. Its a struggle 🙏🙌 love your videos 🤗Christy
Please look for further information, but as far as I know there is two different types of vitamin K. People on blood thinners need to be careful, because vitamin K regulates the capability of your blood to clog properly in case of injuries, so this will make the blood thinners less effective. BUT: This is mostly the other vitamin K, and not K 2.
WOW! Dr Berg just when I thought your information presentation could not be better you upped the game. Succinct presentation with both the what to take, why to take & when to take. I will be sharing this right now with my family. Thank you!
Parroting Dr Berg notes as i usually do best:
Vitamin D is the most important vitamin! It’s a fat-soluble vitamin involved in 10% of our genetics.
Vitamin D won’t work unless you have enough magnesium, the second most important nutrient. Magnesium is involved with 300 different enzymes and plays a vital role in regulating excess calcium. Magnesium glycinate supplements have the best absorption rate.
The more vitamin D you take, the more magnesium you’ll need. Some negative side effects associated with vitamin D, such as nausea, heart palpitations, muscle cramps, and headaches, are actually symptoms of a magnesium deficiency.
Don’t take vitamin D without the important cofactor, vitamin K2. Vitamin D helps you absorb calcium, but you need vitamin K2 to drive it into the bones and teeth to keep it out of the soft tissues.
Vitamin K2 is best for calcium buildup. Take 100 mcg of vitamin K2 for every 10,000 IUs of vitamin D3.
Zinc is another important cofactor that helps you convert cholesterol into vitamin D. If you’re taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D, you should also take 20 mg of zinc.
One of the biggest vitamin D mistakes is not taking enough! You need at least 6,000 to 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 every day. Vitamin D2 does not work like vitamin D3.
The vitamin D detected in the blood is not the active form. This means you could have normal blood levels of vitamin D but still have vitamin D deficiency.
Statins and steroids can inhibit your ability to make vitamin D and its ability to work in your body. The best time to get vitamin D from the sun is between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.

I also take Eliquis 5mg 2x/day, Lisonopril 10mg & Amlodipine 10mg for blood clots and HBP. Dealing with DM as well and have brought the A1C down from 14.8 to 9.2 in 7 mos. just with diet. Its crazy...I was feeling great and then my right leg swelled up. I went to the ER and they kept me for 3 days to find out I have all these illnesses. I'm 59 like you. This has all been very exhausting - dozens of appointments, a new prescription almost every time I see a doctor and they could care less what side effects their meds cause me, so I decided to take back some control and see how doing things a more natural way will do. Thank you for all the knowledge you share with us. ❤
Great job in taking control of your health. I had graves eye disease and cured my self by taking 60 thousand of vitamin D
Hang in there!
I was going to say, my Oncologist said all breast cancer patients are vitamin D, deficient. This helps a lot. I found out United Healthcare won't cover D3, so they had filled D2 for a few years. D2 is plant based and didn't do much for my D levels. Now I know why and the other supplements that I need to take in addition. Thanks again Dr Berg. My Drs love you too. I also do intermittent fasting and eat Keto/Meets Mediterranean, omaze/1x a day. It's helped me so much ! ☆☆☆☆☆
Sending you love and blessings my friend. May you be led down a path of natural healing and health.
You should also consider taking TURMERIC (anti inflammatory), CAYENNE PEPPER (blood thinner), APPLE CICER VINEGAR with the mother (cleans gut) and overall health.
I'd been taking 5000 IU for over a year when I learned about K2 and added that. Only in the last month have I learned about magnesium and added that. Once I started taking magnesium a few things started to improve. Doctors never talk about vitamins or supplements. In fact, I realized that in all the years of discussing statins, the only thing discussed was how my LDL wasn't at goal. Never do I remember anything about diet and carbs or inflammation or vitamin D synthesis and statins. Absolutely nothing except LDL and HDL.
I have a real problem with magnesium so can't add that.
@@Crupett-c3ctry and get chocolate seeds and roast them at low fire 5 minutes, after that peel the skin and there You can have plenty of magnesium, hope You can get some .
Also dark green leafy greens (like spinach, kale, collards...) add magnesium to your diet. As complicated as hemoglobin and chlorophyll are, there is only one difference between their molecules: their CENTERS. Hemoglobin's center is IRON;
Chlorophyll's center is MAGNESIUM. Therefore, all your body needs to do to get hemoglobin while ingesting chlorophyll is to remove the magnesium, replacing it with iron. Eat your greens, follow up with an apple 🍎 or red meat to build your blood.
How much magnesium?
You also need zinc. Doctors don't understand about supplements like Dr. Berg. Doctors can't talk about supplements when they don't understand about them.
The concept of health in The 23 Former Doctor Truths completely explains this, and it’s honestly changed the way I think about my well-being. I wish I had read it sooner because it offers insights that could have saved me years of misunderstanding health. This book doesn’t just inform-it empowers you to take meaningful, lasting control over your health journey.
Sounds like one of these scams. Be careful guys!
Is it 21 or 23 doctors? Who knows
This Doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos .. I respect this man immensely. 👍👍👍

Been following him for 7 years now. And at 47 I feel a whole lot healthier. Thank you Dr Berg
Dr. Eric Berg and Dr. Sten Ekberg have become my go-to doctors. I've chosen to follow their advice (since they align with each other) and disregard input from others.
Don't forget Dr. Ford Brewer.
Dr. Eckberg has the first one I saw, that opened my eyes, and got me started on the Keto Carnivore journey.
Him, Dr. Berg, and Dr. Burns have helped tremendously.
BE SURE to take more Magnesium! I got SEVERE muscle cramps in my back. It was so painful!
Been taking high dose for 4 yrs and still feel improvements day to day. Thank you for sticking with a subject thar is so important and likely ours your online status at risk (from "them"). Kudos to you Doc .. so many others do not dare.
Best video on D3 ever
my Arteries was getting Plaque yrs ago I learned to take Magnesium d3 and k2 and zinc years ago I am older now they did ultrasound on my carotids. And their absolutely clean the girl was so good she showed me we could see the walls there was zero plaque. Now I know why. Thank you for your videos I love them.
May I know what's the dosage you take for each? Thanks
What age are you?
Yes please could you say what doses size are. Thank you
Could you please tell me what type of plaque did you have? Did you also take statin and other drugs?
Thank you.
These are very intelligent and scientific questions
Thank you! Heading to Vitamin Shoppe to get K2 MK7…I’m in remission from breast cancer and need all the help I can get - naturally! You’re the best! Thank you for all you do ♥️
I'm in remission from breast cancer as well and I take Dr. Bergs 10,000 IU of vitamin D/K2 and it increased my vitamin D level to 90. My oncologist told me that it's getting to high and to go down to 2000 IU. NO I'm going to continue taking it!

Wow. This was very helpful. I'm iron deficient and low in Vitamin D. I've been taking Iron & Vitamin D at the same time. I'll space it out and take my iron in the morning and Vitamin D in the afternoon. Thank you Dr. Berg, you're the best!
You're welcome. Glad to remind you all of the benefits of Vitamin D.
Don’t take Iron & D3 at the same time because they compete, wow I had no idea. Thanks for letting me know I will take them at different times each day from now on
You have helped me so much 🙏 my health has improved amazingly with your nutritional advice 💜
Good, solid information as always. I got myself Vitamin D lamp and use it daily for 5 min. It's easy, free once the lamp is bought (that's the expensive part) and convenient. I also use magnesium lotion, apparently magnesium is best absorbed through the skin. I can also make my own magnesium oil from magnesium chloride bath flakes. Just mix them with water and it's ready to use. I get Life Extensions Super K that has different forms of vitamin K in high doses. That combo really makes me feel stronger. Eva

I’m afraid I have multiple sclerosis due to stress and low vitamin D levels, but I remember 2 years ago I was nearly paralyzed from hips down, my legs were barely holding me, I was shaking for 2 months…..but then we went to Thailand with my gf and got a nasty sunburn from spending time on the strong sun… but guess what…my symptoms completely dissapeared 2 days later.
Dr berg is a saint. He deserves a place in heaven in about 100 years. Thank you for all your help and guidance.
🤔 I think he’d probably prefer to be here on earth for quite some time to come 😊
You don’t think it’s too early for him to be in heaven 😃
@@Resilio67 as I suggested, it’s way too early.
This was an excellent informative video. Do you have a list of all of these items you talked about, how much of each and what time of day we should take them?
Another excellent video full of important information. I've been taking 4,000 IU's per day with all the other stuff (K2, zinc, magnesium), but now i'll definitely increase that to 7,000. Thanks, Doc!
Following all all your advise over the past 3 years, Im able to maintain my 6'5" Stature at 260lbs , still built like a big tight end, at the ripe old age of 46. Thanks Dr Berg
46 is not old.
@@dontrend5956 depends on which country you're living in, what your daily life is like, as well as access to nutritious food & so on. Our age in years is not the same as our biological age either.
I see obese children eating highly processed diets in 'developed countries' like the US who will be 'old' & dead at a very young age if things don't turn around for them. I also have seen very young children in 'developing countries' hunched over like elderly people due to the hard labour they have to perform to keep their families fed.
@@satojoko3489 There are always extreme examples on either end of the spectrum, but on average, 46 years is not old.
Good tips!
One other suggestion: Some folks may have genetic variants that reduce their ability to utilize vitamin D. Some of these (pretty rare) are so serious they are diagnosed in childhood, but others are more subtle. You can have "normal" levels of D and still have all the risks of someone who is deficient. This can be confirmed genetically (usually CYP2R1, VDR, and/or CYP27B1 genes), but one easy indicator (confirm results with your doctor) is to get 24-OH D and PTH (parathyroid hormone) tested at the same time. These should be in an inverse ratio. Generally, when your body is getting enough D (25 OH D above the middle of the range), your PTH will be below the middle of the normal range. Because I have some vitamin D resistance, I try to keep my PTH in the middle of the lower third of the reference range by supplementing D (and K2 MK7 and magnesium citrate) and checking the ratio every few months. I started at 10k IU/day, and now I'm stabilized at 3 50K and 4 5K supplements a week - about 24k IU/day.
This makes much sense Dr. Berg, when I took 2 vitamin D supplements, I felt dizzy and anxious, but it was actually a magnesium deficiency.
Same Here ... anxiety ..headache..nausea .muscle weakness Even kidney ache i stop take it
@@SihemJajou Yes, that's why I don't take supplements anymore, but get vitamin D from the sun.
Yes! Vitamin D won’t work unless you have enough magnesium, the second most important nutrient. Magnesium is involved with 300 different enzymes and plays a vital role in regulating excess calcium. Magnesium glycinate supplements have the best absorption rate. The more vitamin D you take, the more magnesium you’ll need!
@@Drberg dr perg ?? What about kidney pain why i feel achy in that area??i take only 120 mg of magnésium because it cause me dirrhea IS that ok
@@Drberg So if I understand you correctly, we should take all these vitamins together. I was taking D3 and K2 in the morning, and magnesium and zinc at night, but I was also taking iron in the morning. So I am going to switch my D3 and K2 intake to evening because of the conflict with iron and to see if they work better going together with magnesium and zinc. Thank you for all you do!
I had no idea that magnesium and K2 were so essential for vitamin D to work properly, or that common mistakes like taking D2 or using sunscreens could hinder its benefits. Definitely rethinking my approach to supplements. Thanks for sharing such valuable info!
You are most welcome! Glad the information is helpful. Thanks for watching!
Some doctors give D2 but no K2. If they give magnesium, they give the magnesium oxide version, which has the least inviolability. They refuse to listen to what a patient says. Stupid patient doesn't have a degree.They say you need to stop reading things on the internet and listen to the eXpErTs. The supplements are fine. The problem must be your genes as to why the supplements aren't working as intended. You lack this newest drug out of the lab that I get kickbacks for. It'll fix the problems from your bad genes. It's sCiEnCe!
@@Drbergexcellent presentation indeed!
I just heard recently though that we should take magnesium in the morning and zinc in the evening.
Magnesium is muscle building. Taking it in the evening is against Nature, apparently.
@@Drberg dr berg, hi my name is alex. I am your audience for a year. I want to buy your products but it doesn't ship to hong kong. how can I buy it? thank you
Last time I tried a vitamin D with K2 my stomach couldn't take it. I can only use spray vitamin D 3. Recent blood test said level 75. Not sure where I go from here. Any advice
Always info we can trust. Thank you
Don't bow down to anyone. Dr Berg does good work, shares a lot with people, but that does not make him a god or infallible. Better you trust yourself, 100%. Very few people have any kind of trust in themselves.
@satojoko3489 no sugar. We are all human
Do the science yourself
1:49 So what is the right % ratio of Magnesium Glycinate to D3 10,000IUs?
I am also quite interested in this as I’ve been taking roughly 40.000IU
Yes, 20k, here
65k here 🗿
3000-3500mg of Magnesium Glycinate. It contains approx. 400mg of Magnesium and the rest is the amino acid Glycine. That is the right dose.
@@Tomamir84how do you know this is the right dose magnesium for 10.000 Vit D?
This is very true
I’ve been taking vitamin D and magnesium and haven’t been sick all year. Good information Dr. Eric
I spread your videos to all of my friends Thank you Dr. Berg for helping the world!
As always, excellent information. Dr. Berg is keeping us healthy one video at a time.❤
There you go again being very accurate. I was taking magnesium ox but switched to magnesium glycinate. It was recommended I take Magnesium Ox because of severe leg/feet cramps and it really helped. When I switched to magnesium glycinate I noticed some slight cramps occurring again but when I started taking D3, the cramps started being more severe again. Guess I need to up the intake of magnesium glycinate.
I take 1 Mag Citrate 400mg AM vit D3 5000/10,000 iu, K2 100 in AM . PM I take 2 Mag Glycinate 400 one early eve 1 late eve.
Hmm I can not take D3 without K2. I had muscle soreness from just D3.
@ Thanks for info. I might need to give that a try.
Of course, who would have thought. Sun screen only blocks the good stuff you want.
Dr Berg always provides the most valuable and in depth information .
Thank you so much for all your great work! You are the best health advisor I know 🌹Being a cancer survivor, I noticed that my doctors never advise about lifestyle, diet and vitamins. Your videos are so to the point, backed up by science and by common sense, all the information I need - I highly appreciate everything you do 🙏🏻 keep those videos coming! 🌹👌🏻
The key word is: uptake. Thanks for the K2 and magnesium info. Other than that... the shrinkflation at present is appalling. One brand where I used to get a 650 count is now relabeled and is a sad 300 count - at about the same price/in the same bottle. We are being robbed.
When greed encourages playing with people’s health so blatantly, and more broadly everyday, you just have to wonder how self-hating do those people have to be? Benefiting from others suffering (there are millions who can’t afford vitamins,) is not sanity or humane.
Also, I’m sticking up on everything I can before January 6th. Who knows what will take place and I’ll use it eventually.
Another great video by the Awesome Dr.Berg.
You are the best - i know ala this from the other your videos !.
Thank you for the best content from youtube !
I love that Dr. Berg's product take out the complication of figuring out what take together. His Vit D has everything he mentioned needed in the right dosages. It doubled by daughter's very low D in a short amount of time.
Dr. Berg is awesome! Thank you sir for taking the time to educate your viewers.
Holy Cow! Everything I watch your videos I learn more. I was taking MgO2 with my 15000 D3 k2, ang getting headache and palpitations. Your the best!
What is mgo2? My sister has constant headaches and palpitations also that's why I am asking
@@MoDrox-hy2xxmagnesium oxide I believe.
Magnesium (Bis)Glycinate is really palatable, a lot of tablet form supplements have magnesium stearate as an ingredient.
Okay I found magnesium peroxide is mgo2 so you were taking that and it was giving you a headache and palpitations and you switch to glycinate apparently and all was good thankfully ....if I understand it correctly
@@MoDrox-hy2xx glycinate has better absorption and less side effects that the cheaper forms like oxide has.
If you need magnesium for brain function then you would give Magnesium L-Threonate a go
Eat healthy, exercise, take baby aspirin as well as vitamin tabs, eat fermented cabbage such as Sauerkraut & kimchi, take one spoon of extra virgin olive oil and apple cider vinegar, drink kefir yogurt drink & matcha green tea and sleep well.

Hi Dr. Berg,
I recently learned about LPS (lipopolysaccharide) biosynthesis pathways through a stool test, and it helped me understand some of the symptoms I’ve been struggling with, like memory problems, anxiety, social discomfort, and even the inability to experience pleasure . Could you please make a video explaining LPS, its impact on the brain and body, and what steps we can take to reduce its effects? I think this could really help a lot of people dealing with similar issues. Thank you!

I **Really** appreciate your daily videos/ reels,Doc Berg. We're getting our daily dose of very high quality education. Super thanks!! 💥🙏😍
A lot of users ask about the amount of magnesium they should take.
From my point of view:
Magnesium is always individual. Some need more, others less. The stress of everyday life or a lot of sport alone means that the body needs more magnesium. And now vitamin D is added to the mix! Vitamin D is a so-called magnesium thief, it needs it for its own conversion and activation and takes it from the body's stores, which are sometimes unable to carry out their normal tasks. Often the stores are not sufficient, and magnesium can only be partially absorbed through diet. Possible consequences for some: headaches, muscular problems, unpleasant agitation, nausea, and sometimes heart palpitations. This is often due to a magnesium deficiency and not to vitamin D. The problem can therefore be solved.
The stores can be filled well with a supplementary daily amount of approx. 300-800 mg (Mg is individual). It is recommended to take Mg in smaller portions (approx. 150 mg) throughout the day. The body can then absorb and process it immediately.
The magnesium forms glycinate and citrate are highly bioavailable. Citrate affects some people's intestines (hence smaller portions), and has a predominantly muscular effect, while glycinate has a more calming effect (in the evening). For example, I take both alternately, sometimes in combination.
By trying things out and listening to yourself, everyone can find out their amount.
Thank you so much! For some reason, he did not explain this. Your explanation was very detailed and appreciated. I'm going to go to other videos, etc. and see what the daily amount recommended for magnesium is and maybe up that a bit as they're usually on the very low side. Thanks again.
Thank you MD Berg, I am a big follower of your work. Your approach is appreciated very much.
Thank you very much for your trust and support. Hope my videos will help you.

I just want to express my appreciation for your work. You share insights that are generally hard to obtain and which «society» should adhere to, communicate and facilitate for instead of letting people in their ignorance unwittingly get all kinds of deceases which could easily be avoided. I have talked to a couple of doctors about this and it´s not neccesarily lack of knowledge on their part, but more that most people don´t understand it anyway as it both requires interest and some dedication. The knowledge needs to be implemented in some kind of health program and this is not prioritized as it would require significant changes which would disrupt the interests of commercial companies which make a fortune on reactive medicines or fast foods. I have hope for the future though as youth seem to be more focused on and interested in these topics.
I recently bought dr bergs vitamin d and after weeks of not feeling much different I read some of the negative reviews and it was all people talking about the bad type of magnesium in it or other stuff about the zinc so anyway it’s really irrelevant maybe I just wanted to say thanks for the video bc I tried to google some things about it and came to the conclusion there were reasons you added them in so this helped address those doubts. Very informative. I will probably keep taking vitamin d until I finish my supply and continue to watch bergs videos

Great information as always but how much magnesium do you need for 10,000 IU of D3?

@shaneb203 check out foods with magnesium, like Brazil nuts etc. they might help tooo.
It's almost like they don't want us to be healthy isn't it? $$$
Did you ever measure the level of vitamin D in your blood? how is it look like?
I lost dr Erig Berg on RUclips, I use to see each and every of his videos, not anymore, unless I write it down on the search dr erig berg , that's the only I can follow him and get his videos, it's like they don't his honest and helping millions of people through Natural way , keep going dr Berg we all connected to you and we appreciate the great work you doing for millions of people on the planet, I can imagine,
I was not sure about the magnesium until I watched this, had some confusion on it. Thanks for clearing that up. I've been using D3+K2/zinc for several years which I always take at first light. I'm here to say I've had no more developing joint pain since improving my D3 levels. I just wish I had taken heed years earlier!
Common vitamin D mistakes include not taking enough, neglecting cofactors like magnesium and K2, using D2 instead of D3, and misunderstanding toxicity risks. Proper dosage, timing, and complementary nutrients are crucial for optimal vitamin D benefits.
This is so overwhelming. How much magnesium should you take with 5000 iu of vitamin D and how much zinc?
So you say it's better to go to the Sun without nothing? With the dry skin? Or is there an natural oil we could put to protect and hydrate / help with the sun getting a tan an vitamin D ? (maybe hazelnut oil?)

Been taking 20,000 IUs for a little over a year now and I've noticed a lot of improvements. I might need to up my Zinc intake but I've also been taking a higher dosage of Magnesium for about 7 months. So far so good.
How much magnesium do you take daily?
Growing up i was a typical Irish freckle face girl. I could not go in the sun without burning. Now as a 63 year old… I practice Carnivore lifestyle and zero carb, I can be outside in a bathing suit in midday summer sun for three hours and not get sunburned. Something about the high fat zero carb helps my skin.
Thanks Dr. Berg. Please do a deep dive into how Vit D3 is made...? I've got D3 made with mushrooms, lichen as the source. Is this normal ? Please do a video. Also, a safe version (brand) that is on the market and not made overseas that you would recommend.
D3/cholecalciferol is produced by chemical companies, don't buy anything with cholecalciferol.

Rockefeller really hated humanity ,
They re literally trying to decompose us from the inside
Im so frustrated with my cardiologist, and my fathers. I have asked about taking magnesium glycinate and K2 and they say no because K2 can cause clots and strokes run in our family. My dad has beginning stages of calcification ☹️. He had a stroke at 46 and changed his eating and walks everyday, he is now 73❤ I am 50 and overweight in menopause, with his genetics by blood test. Its a struggle 🙏🙌 love your videos 🤗Christy
Please look for further information, but as far as I know there is two different types of vitamin K.
People on blood thinners need to be careful, because vitamin K regulates the capability of your blood to clog properly in case of injuries, so this will make the blood thinners less effective. BUT: This is mostly the other vitamin K, and not K 2.

What a super star. Thank you for answering so many question I didn’t even know I needed to ask! I can’t get enough of your videos ❤
Thank you for your feedback. Hope you learned new things here.
WOW! Dr Berg just when I thought your information presentation could not be better you upped the game. Succinct presentation with both the what to take, why to take & when to take. I will be sharing this right now with my family. Thank you!
