If you’re deficient in trace minerals, you could be losing your hair—but why?  What is a trace mineral? A trace mineral is a mineral that’s needed in very tiny (or trace) amounts. Trace minerals are helper nutrients in enzymes and proteins.  In your cells, you have tiny biological machines, which are proteins and enzymes. Those little proteins do the work of the body. They build certain body tissue, they break things down, and they are involved in all sorts of biochemistry.  Important trace minerals for hair: 1. Iron If you’re anemic and you’re deficient in iron, o

If you have constipation, indigestion, gas, bloating, or stomach pain, this video is for you. I’m actually going to break down each part of your digestive tract and explain a little bit about it. Breaking down the digestive tract: Stomach — Acid is the key thing in your stomach. It helps you break down protein, absorb certain minerals, and kill pathogens. Many people do not have enough strong acid in their stomach.  To support healthy stomach acid levels, consider:  • Hydrochloric acid (betaine hydrochloride)  • Salt   • Potassium

In Sweden, they aren’t under any lockdowns or quarantines. In Sweden:  • The healthcare system is not at full capacity   • The schools are open   • The restaurants are open   • They are practicing social distancing   • They have banned groups of over 50 Sweden has the lowest number of ICU beds in all of the Nordic countries. It also appears that the number of deaths per day from the coronavirus in Sweden has gone down.  Herd immunity is basically a situation where there are enough people exposed to a virus to build imm

Today we’re going to talk about what to do if you stopped doing keto and intermittent fasting during quarantine and how to get back on track.  Along with social distancing, you may also want to try carb distancing. Some people think that to get back on keto, they should do a sugar detox. But, there’s really no such thing as sugar detoxification.  When you stop doing keto and intermittent fasting, the brain starts using glucose as fuel again. But, now you want to get back on track, and you stop consuming carbs and sugar again. Your brain doesn’t have any stored sugar though, so you’re going to feel cognitive changes, such as:  •

There are over 1 billion people in the world who struggle with vitamin D deficiency or vitamin D insufficiency. Vitamin D is vital to over 200 biochemical reactions. In fact, 5% of the genome is influenced by vitamin D.  China, India, South America, and the Middle East are at the highest risk of vitamin D deficiency. Pregnant or breastfeeding women are also at a high risk of vitamin D deficiency.  What happens when you are vitamin D deficient? • T-helper cells have a difficult time working • T-regulatory cells cannot function properly • Iron i

In this podcast, we're going to talk about protein and hypoglycemia, and I'm going to cover how protein affects blood sugar.  With hypoglycemia, what happens, is when the blood sugar goes up, insulin pushes it down, leaving you with low blood sugar. People with low blood sugar typically have a higher amount of insulin pushing blood sugar down, and there are no counter hormones to push the blood sugar back up.  Hypoglycemia symptoms:  • Fatigue   • Dizziness   • Irritableness  • Grouchiness  • Dry eyes  • Depression Some people have this idea that the fuel that the body uses is either glucose

In a recent survey, 88% of people with COVID-19 had more than one illness. After being put on a ventilator, the mortality rate jumps up to 80%. These are not promising statistics.  Here’s the question: why is high blood pressure the primary driver of severe COVID-19 symptoms? According to one study, 69.1% of people with coronavirus also had high blood pressure. Another study showed that 53% of people coronavirus patients have HBP—it’s always at the top of the list.  It has to do with the ACE2 receptors. ACE2 receptors are on the outside part of the cells—

If you're a diabetic or you have insulin resistance, this podcast is for you. Insulin is a hormone that causes you to store fat. In the presence of insulin, it's almost impossible to burn fat and lose weight because insulin prevents fat burning. With insulin, you store sugar as fat, and it prevents the break down of fat. Insulin also stores glucose and turns glucose into glycogen.  Glycogen is a string of glucose molecules held together as stored sugar. Potassium is also involved. Potassium is necessary in the storage of glycogen.  The main purpose of in

In this podcast, I want to compare hydroxychloroquine versus remdesivir.  A big mistake was made by the World Health Organization when they sent this study to various publications. There was a rush to publish the study right away because of the success of remdesivir, and the wrong study was accidentally sent.  In the study that was sent, there was not an association with statistically significant clinical benefits with remdesivir.  The study that they wanted to publish only showed a moderate improvement in recovery time. Remdesivir is also an expensive drug. The media has sparked excitement over remdesivir, but is ignoring hydr

It’s actually your own immune system.  The virus doesn’t have a metabolism. It’s not even alive. Here’s what happens. You have this inactive shell with some DNA that has some very specific instructions to replicate. There are certain things on the surface of the virus that connect to certain tissues and certain receptors in the cell.  For example, COVID-19 connects to the ACE2 receptor. Once it connects, it’s able to get into the cell. Once inside of the cell, the immune system doesn’t see it at first. The goal of the virus is to get in

In this podcast, we’re going to talk about a very fascinating study relating to COVID-19.  Vitamin D is not only associated with decreased severity from COVID-2 but also decreased mortality from COVID-2. A study that involved 780 confirmed cases of SARS-COVID-2 showed decreased severity in blood clots, hypoxia, and respiratory stress.  There were three groups involved in the study: Group 1: Had enough vitamin D Group 2: Had insufficient vitamin D Group 3: Had a deficiency in vitamin D The group that had a deficiency in vitamin D had a much higher mortality rate than the group that had enough vitamin D.  Vitamin D can potentia

Your mucus is actually a very important part of your body.  The body makes between 1 and 1.5 liters of mucus per day. The mucus sits on mucus membranes covering the inside of your body. The mucus membrane is a part of the immune system. Friendly bacteria live in the mucus, and immune cells live in the mucus.  The mucus membrane and the mucus on top of it line the:  • Sinuses   • Mouth   • Throat   • Lungs   • Stomach   • Intestines   • Kidneys   • Urogenital  What does mucus do? &nbs

Today we're going to talk about the benefits of hydroxychloroquine that actually go beyond just killing COVID-19.  Hydroxychloroquine has been used for over 70 years as a malaria drug. It's been repurposed for COVID-19. Hydroxychloroquine is also a very inexpensive drug.  There are some reports that hydroxychloroquine is ineffective and could even be dangerous. But when you look deeper into the study their claims are based on—it's bogus. Hydroxychloroquine benefits that go beyond killing the coronavirus: 1. It's a zinc ionophore  2. It's antithrombotic  3. It's an alkalizer  4. It suppresses an overactive immune syst

We're going to cover intermittent fasting, the biggest intermittent fasting mistake, and intermittent exercise.  A healthy body has really good circadian rhythms. These are natural waves of rhythm like:  • Sleep cycles  • Eating cycles   • Rhythms of digestion  • Rhythms of hormones Anything we do of a sustained nature adds more stress to the body. For example, one of the most important things intermittent fasting does is correcting digestion. The body was not designed to consume on a sustained basis (snacking in between meals). Sustaine

Now, I’ve done plenty of other videos on the role of zinc, vitamin D, and vitamin C in the immune system, but I haven’t touched on vitamin A yet.  Vitamin A is an essential part of the immune system. A vitamin A deficiency will leave your body susceptible to infections—especially in the respiratory system, including your lungs, sinuses, and throat.  You need vitamin A for your mucous membranes. In particular, vitamin A is required for the creation of mucin. Mucin is an essential part of the mucus membrane.  Vitamin A is also involved in the epithelia

I want to cover why vitamin D can potentially help someone with hypertension.  Never stop taking your blood pressure medication unless you’ve checked with your doctor. But, if you’re on blood pressure medication and you’re not taking vitamin D, you might want to consider taking it.  One of the most commonly prescribed drugs for hypertension is an ACE inhibitor. This drug inhibits the angiotensin-converting enzyme. This enzyme relates to an entire system in your body, which is called the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). The RAS helps regulate:  • Blood pres

In this podcast, we're going to talk about some really interesting benefits of sunlight that go beyond just vitamin D.  When the sun hits your skin, certain chemical reactions occur that generate vitamin D from the cholesterol in your skin. You actually need cholesterol to make vitamin D.  Health benefits of sunlight that go beyond vitamin D: 1. When the sun hits your skin and retinas, it can increase serotonin, which can potentially affect your mood.  2. The sun can reduce melatonin. Melatonin helps you sleep.  3. The heat and humidity from the sun may have the power to decrease viral loads. 4. UV has antibacterial effec

There were between 70-200 million people that died during that pandemic.  A discovery was made by digging up and examining the skeletons from an unmarked grave in northern London. They found that a good number of these skeletons had:  • Rickets (rickets is a severe vitamin D deficiency)  • Bad teeth (bad teeth can be due to a vitamin D deficiency)  • Anemia   • Injuries (potentially from a war) So there was a combination of malnutrition and a war that could create a perfect storm for a weakened immune system.&

It’s been thought that COVID-19 is more of a pneumonia type problem or ARDS. But, they have found that it’s actually more of a thrombosis, which is blood clots. This could explain why some people are also getting heart attacks or strokes.  The virus is triggering inflammatory cytokines. If a person has a pre-existing condition or a weak immune system, they could get an overreaction of cytokines called a cytokine storm. They also don’t have the enzymes that are supposed to resolve the situation, which causes a massive amount of oxidative stress. At this p

Some of the organic foods that you buy from Wholefoods are actually from China.  The United States does not inspect imported foods. In very small print on certain organic products from Wholefoods, you'll see that it says "product of China." Not all of the foods are from China, but it's important to check the labels to make sure they aren't products of China. Even the "California Blend Vegetables" said "product of China" on the label.  Organic means "without pesticides, insecticides, and antibiotics." If you're able to, I believe it's best to go organic as much as possible.  Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, 51 years of age is a
