I don't even remember that how many people i have recommended dr. Berg's channel.

Was struggling with the digesive problems on keto when i started and chia seeds in a glass of lemon water saved me.

I had side effect but I think they had more to do with my life long sugar addiction than anything else. I was seriously addicted to sugar having grown up in a family where sugar was a part of nearly everything we ate. We drank sodas, sweet tea, and gallons of Kool-Aid loaded with multiple cups of sugar per gallon. Both my mom and dad cooked and baked a lot so there was no shortage of sweets at any time. I was never fat but my health began to turn for the worse after I turned 50 (currently 63). Since beginning Keto about three weeks ago I no longer eat or have cravings for sugar. My diet consists of tons of vegetables, moderate fats and protein, and low carbs. I eat one sometimes two meals per day then fast for at least 18 hours before the next cycle of meals. I only drink lemon water, tea, and coffee all unsweetened and I DON'T SNACK. My health has improved greatly since I started and I have no problems sticking to the diet because I no longer have cravings for anything sweet. My goal was not so much to lose weight (even though I have), but to wean myself from sugar which I did. Dr. Berg promotes a "Healthy" Keto diet which implies there may be unhealthy Keto diets promoted by others. So even though the diet works for me, I do understand why many people have concerns. However, I think if people use a common sense approach, learn all they can about Keto, do what works for them and not just blindly follow all the gurus out there, they'll be just fine.

Dr. Berg is so correct. I am guilty of sort of keto. I’m guilty of to many vegetables. I started full force with vegetables. I need a good probiotic.

Day 3, woke up sleepy and hungry after 10hrs. I'm hungry but do not have an appetite 🤦🏽‍♀️

*It's great to have a resource that addresses the side effects and provides solutions to make the keto journey smoother.*

THANK YOU!!! You are the first one to acknowledge that veggies help with only NEW diarrhea or constipation. Many of us begin keto already with IBS, and the worsened constipation is a real issue that no one is addressing. I've tried everything, and finally chia seeds are giving me some hope. Dr. Berg pays attention!

PERFECT TIMING! I had a HORRIBLE weekend. 😭😭😭

nice to see the classic whiteboard and krrrik kriiiks from the marker pens again Dr Berg!! your cartoon drawings have improved too! Here are the excerpts: Here are the symptoms and remedies for common keto side effects. 1. Brain fog - This could be a vitamin B1 deficiency or low ketones-use nutritional yeast and MCT oil. 2. Gout/high uric acid - Take a green drink, like wheatgrass juice or other leafy green vegetable juice. This will regulate your pH. 3. High cholesterol - This means you need more bile salts to break down cholesterol. 4. Kidney stones - This could be not enough water or potassium citrate. 2 liters of water a day is ideal. Also, avoid high-oxalate foods, like almonds, spinach, and chocolate. 5. Digestion issues - Adjust vegetable intake (could be too much or not enough), take bile salts, avoid lectins, and take betaine hydrochloride or apple cider vinegar. 6. Acne - Avoid dairy products. 7. Palpitations & muscle cramps - Increase magnesium, potassium, and sea salt. 8. Irritability - Use vitamin B1. 9. Gallbladder pain - Avoid nuts and peanut butter. 10. Bad breath - Increase leafy greens and lower protein. 11. Rash - Increase B vitamins (nutritional yeast). 12. Fatigue or keto flu - Sea salt and potassium. 13. Sleeplessness - Increase calcium (calcium citrate or calcium lactate) and sea salt.

I've been doing the keto diet and IF for more than a month and things were great. Then I started feeling tired, fatigued, irritable and having brain fog so I started taking Vit B1, Potassium, Magnesium, and sea salt. Thins were great again for a week but now it is worse. I stopped IF as I thought I wasn't getting enough calories but still keep the diet and take the supplements mentioned before but I still experience these side effects...

Dr Berg always READ my mind!!

Constipation was my problem right now after 5weeks of keto. Thank you for this helpful information.

When I first started keto I noticed that the pink Himalayan salt was all I needed for first few days, then I ordered some of Dr Berg’s supplements and I never had any unpleasant side effects. I take Dr Berg’s nutritional yeast supplements, the orange electrolyte powder, the Sleep Aid, and the Wheatgrass Juice powder. I had such an easy transition into keto/IF life and I’ve had amazing results!

Dr. Burgs drink supplimants helped so much. My brain fog went away. Potassium citrate is one of the key entity's in the drink mix. It's important to watch this video to the end. Moderation is key with everything in life. We have to find our own way.

Excellent video for keto newbies and reinforcing what we’re doing!

WONDERFUL information Dr. Berg....Thank You !!! 👍

You are the best doctor

I'm so confused. I can't eat anything. Everything is so contradicting when it comes to my body. I'm giving up. If I eat whatever I want, I feel no pain. If I start taking care of myself, I am plagued with pains, sleepless nights, horrible cramps, etc. 😭 I have nothing else to eat if I address every ailment that I feel.

Excellent advice right here.👍 TY muchly for sharing this important information with us all. Take care too everybody. ❤🙂🐶

3rd day on keto and intermittent fasting, just cannot fall asleep, so so restless at night, help Dr.I am very miserable when I don't sleep, and I am more hungry which is a bad thing

And there you have it, concise information, all it takes is application, which is easier said than done, but entirely possible.

Thank you Dr. Eric Berg

Your so great , Thank you for taking the time to educate and help so many ❤ love from Halifax Canada

Thanks for the information Dr. BERG!

Thank you Dr Berg blessings.

WHAT A WONDERFUL CHART! Thank you Dr Berg!!!

Totally needed this. Just starting to make Keto changes now. Thank you.

The constipation on keto is real. I’ve experimented with no vegetables and some. But I find that’s it’s always best to eat some vegetables (in moderation). This is because they contain magnesium and potassium. Magnesium is responsible for relaxing the end of colon so stool can pass and potassium will help the colon muscles contract (among the many wonderful benefits of these minerals).

❤ Loved the Smiley Drawing in the End of the Video. 😍😍 Amazing Amazing Video Dr. Berg! So Informative. Very In Depth. Covered all the Important Points. Loved this Video. ☺❤

Positive approach to keto side effects. Please include form and dosage of vitamins and minerals. Thank you.

I'm loving this presentation. By going around the body, it's easy to identify and remember. Thanks dear Dr Berg.

It’s like you read my mind Dr. Berg! This video is just what I needed thank you so much! 😊

Good to see all the keto side effects rolled into a single video ! I’ve been on keto for about 7 months with good results but recently have been having episodes of fatigue and light headiness especially before my OMAD. I guess this means I’m salt/potassium deficient ? If I increase my pink sea salt intake should this take care of this problem or do I need to add electrolyte powder also for the potassium ?

Great video, as always. Much appreciated.

I am FIVE DAYS IN and the nausea I can handle, the fog I can work through, THE HOT FLASHES ARE INSANE! I am going to super hydrate, add electrolytes, and drink bone broth and see if I can get through this because I want the energetic and clarity benefits!!!

I recently started taking unmodified potato starch in a glass of water daily....I am noticing a big improvement in digestion.......can you do a video on unmodified potato starch? THANKS

I just started keto ! Great information! Thank you

Dr Berg pls make yr products readily available in Singapore like set up health store or something! Lots of appreciation n love fr Singapore👏

Dr. Berg is so right. If you do this correctly starting , you won’t have these problems. I’m guilty of sorta jeto

This is a much needed video for the Keto Community !!!!

Great video, just want to start my keto diet and this came very useful. Thank you, love your videos.

I am from salome Kenya, your vedios have been helpful to my family and I Thank you.

I will absolutely attest to magnesium (glycinate) at night for cramps. GONE.

OMG!! Thank you so much Dr. Berg!! You are a Godsend!! 🫵🏼🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😊

Very informative share. Thanks Doc

Removing peanut butter and is great advice. Because to add to what you said about nuts, nut flours and butters are rotten compared to fresh nuts, and not as filling. If you could please answer why in another video you said to only drink water when you’re thirsty and this advice has given a big improvement in energy for me. But now you are saying I have to drink 2.5L which is what I was doing before. Thanks for the videos you make.

I followed Dr Berg and didn’t have any side effects. Did healthy Keto and lost 20 kgs in 6 months and still keeping my healthy weight for the past 6 months. Before doing Ketogenic diet, watch Dr. Berg’s videos. Thanks Dr. Berg for changing my health and life!

Went tru majority of the side effects (heart palpitations was the scariest)because I went keto and fasting plus exercise too fast to intense eased up a bit ad stabilized,dr berg saving lives all over the world🙏🏽

Question for the group: I started IF and Keto in January based on Dr Berg videos. I has worked wonderfully. Waist went from 36 to 30, weight went from 198 to 175, diabetes meds reduced significantly, not a single abnormal blood sugar reading. That said, I can't sleep for crap. Mind racing, hard to get to sleep, wake up between 3 and 4 AM every night without fail. Any suggestions?

Amazing summary, thanks! Nothing to add :-D

Thank you Dr Berg for your Knowledge. Just to add, another reason you want organic fruit/nuts even when they're contained in a thick shell is due to the pesticides that the tree/vines are sprayed with that contaminate the SOIL around it. The contamination of pesticides from conventionally grown foods starts at the roots!

The side effect with Dr. Berg's videos is that i can not get off my eyes from my phone, literally watching his videos non-stop 😆

Excellent good job

But you didn't include PMS and irregular menstruation 😭😭😭

Dr please do speak on Scalp folliculities and its treatment 🙏

Dr. Berg 💖 you said in a video that flabby skin is a protein excess, It would logically mean I should stop eating protein for a while or maybe often do a no protein fast?

What to do for chronic wound healing which heals very slowly? Supplements? How much grams?

Thank you sir for making me sound like a nutritional expert 😀.. Amazing content you putting out here. Be blessed.

Another awesome information video.

Guess it is trial/error for each individuals-seems there are so many 'potential' side effects though while on keto Great how he has solutions/adjustments. Love this video (especially avoid the dairy part)-comments are helpful and always interesting too:)🍁

It make sense the bloating be related to vegetables, yesterday I ate salad for lunch and I was bloated the rest of the day, I could not digested

Too many instructions for joe blow.... just trying 16/8. Low carbs, and no refined white sugar or sugary drinks, starting to see a difference.... thx Doc

Can someone tell me what nutritional yeast is in german? i cant find it anywhere

Fortunately I have none of these. But I take everyday: MCT Oil TBLS first few weeks - AM Wheatgrass Juice Powder - AM Electrolyte Powder - AM 2x Nutritional Yeast Tablets - 3 pills AM/3 pills PM 2x Green Drink - AM/PM 2x Apple Cider Vinegar TBLS - AM/PM

I just found him. So excited to learn more to be healthy.

I'm epileptic but do you do all these too?

I restarted keto last week. Had an awesome 4 days, so much energy. By day 5 I didn't need breakfast, forgot lunch and by 5pm I lost the vision in my right eye. Seriously I forget to eat on keto (and due to ADHD) because I don't get cravings to eat at all. I literally need someone to feed me food when it's time. Intuitive eating is such bullshit 😂.

Very helpful Doc

This was fantastic, Dr Berg! AND the takeaways are likely helpful for connecting the dots whether or not the person is actually doing Keto and Intermittent Fasting lifestyle, right?

MAKE VIDEO ABOUT WHAT HAPPEND TO ERIKSEN HE COLLAPS IN A FOOTBALL MATCH SUFDNELY WHAT CAUSES CARDIAC ARREST IN ATHELTES PLS ANSWER

I had a hair transplant two weeks ago and stopped keto a week before. I don't wanna lose the new hair oro any other hair. I'll have to just work harder on exercise to lose weight.

Dr. Berg, The knowledge you have given me to turn my body around is priceless! Thank you very much! I do have one question.... I'm almost certain my current plateau is caused by insulin resistance. I drink a sucralose energy drink once a day. I originally switched to this because of the zero calories but have since learned that the sucralose is spiking my insulin. Besides black coffee, any other tips for getting a caffeine boost in the morning? I say that because my taste buds really can't stand black coffee. Thanks for everything!!

While on Keto a few years ago, I struggled A LOT with the Keto rash and the only responses I would get is: oh it's so rare, oh it works itself out, oh just eat more carbs??? What? I stopped. I couldn't tolerate it. And NOW FINALLY, AN ANSWER! I just might try Keto again! Thank you Dr. Berg!!!!!!!!! Just because it doesn't happen to everyone doesn't mean it should just get shrugged off. Imagine having a poison ivy type rash on your skin because of your diet and no one will help you....you get off the diet. Thanks for giving me hope Dr. Berg!

Off topic here Dr. Berg, but can you make a video explaining HRV - Heart rate variability?

Thanks also u mentioned once that who ever is on keto has to drink lemon water every morning I think you said do you still stand by that or u dont since u did not mention it.

Another great video as always! One thing that I have never figured out when it comes to nutritional yeast - does Berg ever recommend how much to take? I'm taking approximately 1 teaspoon of Braggs Nutritional Yeast everyday. Is that a lot? Or little? Anyone know the answer? Thanks in advance

I have a question. How do we know we r prone to get gout until I get one? I have gout after 2 years of keto. Everything was good other than that.

Eat everything in moderation Keto is not for me I tried but find to many issues.

thanks for that, but Im told that high uric acid in blood do not tolerate yeast, even mushrooms...how to take nutritional yeast then?

Thank you Dr. Berg! 😇

Thus guy is great for advise!

Dr Berg .In my kin one is suffering from 3rd stage breast cancer. So please guide how to recover and what to eat and not eat .How to contact at your clinic.Could you please help......Please reply

I lost weight on keto and my B/P also went down to normal so I was able to discontinue my medication. BUT I did notice trouble bouncing back from my workouts the next day and some brain fog. Any suggestions?

could you do a video on dairy? you have always recommended full cream milk/cheese/butter...

Can you address hair loss? I been on keto for more than 4 months and my hair started to fall a lot, I take nutritional yeast, collagen, electrolytes, magnesium, and nothing works .

I was just asking myself this question... Dr. Berg, STOP READING MY MIND! 😂

What about body smell? Is that the same as bad breath? Thank you Dr. Berg!

Thank you Dr Berg for educating us about Keto diet and the side effects! I have been in Keto diet for 3 month and I notice itchy rash on my upper arms on and off....I take vitamin B-Complex and Multivitamins it doesn't help, any suggestion...Thank you!!

Please Dr. Give us some answers about the safety of this vacination.

One of the biggest side effect is not mentioned in the video, it's not that I cannot fall asleep (at 9:30pm I sleep quickly), it's more the spike in cortisol at around 5:30am, sometimes before that wakes me up, and have no choice but get up. The cortisol keeps me awake days after days but I no longer have the deep restful sleep I used to have before, this sensation of feeling so great when you wake up. Nonetheless I had very good sleep on Keto last month only one or 2 times, can't explain why. That was the days I ate 200g of salmon the diner before. If I knew how to limit this cortisol .... I do IF, Healthy Keto, 25yo and have a had a fast metabolism already.

Thank you for your awesome videos! So I have a question that isn’t directly related to this video, but relates to intermittent fasting and healthy keto. How do you handle social situations when following these principles (like a friend, acquaintance or family member making you lunch/dinner that isn’t healthy keto)? What is proper etiquette? Bring my own canned sardines (which may be silly)? Tell them you are on a diet but still take a bite or two to be nice? Eat beforehand then sit with an empty plate at the table while everyone else eats? I’m probably overthinking- I just don’t want to be rude to the person who put in the effort to make a meal!

Perfect 👌

Uhhh the board and markers are back!

Dear Dr. Berg, Can you do a video detailing how the body goes in and out of ketosis? (If you haven't already) I have several questions. I am unclear as to once you go into ketosis if all it takes is one or two carbs to knock you completely out and then your body has to do a complete 24-48 hour reset or whether you can dip in and out of ketosis on limited carbs at some point. Also, I'm unclear wether the body starts producing ketones at 16, 18 or 20+ hours prior to achieving true ketosis and if it does to any degree that one can be benefiting from those ketones. Forgive me if you made this video already I've searched yours but not found any (so many videos!) that covered these. Thank you.

Dr. Berg , i have a problem regarding vitamin B with all its kind ,if its from multivitamins or from fortified yeast tablets . I always have constipation and i can stay for two days without emptying my stomach, i must take laxative . Do you know why ???. Many thanks you are really a HERO 👍

Hi Dr Berg, I m new to keto and have been strongly recommended to watch your videos which are described as powerful and knowledgeable ! As I just started to follow your Keto practice videos accordingly, I am having a sydrome which is not included in the list of this video and wonder if you can help. After I have started for 2 weeks, my voice cord (glottis) seems to have “clogging” effect that it feels like the voice cord is very very dry (I drink a lot of water) and hard to say something out without making greater effort. Another confusion that keto is mainly about no carb no sugar right? Why would a person have such kind of side effects as stated in your list in the video when a person without carb and sugar only? Are there a lot of hidden nutrients or “materials” in the carb and sugar that a person would suffer from deficiency of such kind materials when he cut off all carb and sugar?

This is a very informative video.

Same with dr berg im having bad stomache with brocolli but not on other crucies

What I don't understand is how do we take these things-- salt, B vitamins, potassium -- to reduce the side effects if you're trying to detox with a 48 hour fast and fighting keto flu? If you take these things, you're not fasting... advice, please.
