welcome back everyone we’re here with another q a it’s Friday morning for some people but uh not others uh anything that I say is definitely not meant to bypass your medical doctor and give you any type of cures so um just check with your doctor before you implement any of the things that we’re going to talk about Steve Let’s Just Jump Right In Like We normally do okay true or false deficiencies of some heavy metals like arsenic lead could be the result of essential nutrients inhibiting growth and repair so we know toxic elements like Arsenic and Lead are bad for us but is it possible that if we’re deficient in these toxic metals to some degree could it affect our health all right yes or no Angelo from YouTube I understand that you had a sulgren syndrome what did you do to treat it and what advice can you share as I now have it I don’t know if I said that right sogrens Sjogren’s yeah I never had it um so I don’t know who said I had it but uh yeah it’s an autoimmune disease it affects the connective tissue it can affect the skin it can affect the joints can affect the digestion um I think the best thing to do is to um take high levels of vitamin D because that can actually help you hopefully put some of these symptoms in remission and act as an anti-inflammatory so that would be the most important thing to do and then try to focus on just creating as much health as you possibly can by doing the healthy keto and especially prolonged fasting regular intermittent fasting because when you fast you heal the immune system so that’s that’s what I would recommend for that very good okay I’ve got sander all set up for us and Sandra if you’ll unmute yourself you’re on with Dr Berg for your one question go hi Dr Berg thank you thank you thank you for sharing all your years of experience with health and wellness nutrition with all of us and I Now understand why I feel so much better with prolonged fasting my question is I’m now in my fourth month of following your Healthy keto and intermittent fasting guidelines which has included Your recommended liver support supplements and I’m wondering will I eventually be able to eliminate my symptoms from Tire mean intolerance since so many healthy keto food and supplements are high in tyramine I I think I think it’s potentially uh possible but uh as long as you keep everything else in check I think you can definitely eliminate these intolerances um you know it’s it’s very it’s a good question because I’ll get other people that will say if I do this long enough will I be able to get rid of um like an autoimmune disease or will I be able to get rid of insulin resistance or am I diabetes um the answer is yes but um when you if but but it comes with kind of a catch for me too like well can I ever go back to my normal Foods I’m like no because those are not normal Foods so if you’re maintaining these things I think you absolutely positively can do that because even if you have a genetic problem um you can the genes don’t control you it’s like the epigenetics your lifestyle what you do your you as a person can actually override that and really put these genes into under your control so absolutely positively yes thank you that’s terrific well thank you and why don’t you get back with us as we ask everyone to do uh Sandra uh and let us know how you’re doing and if you uh you know were able to move past this particular Challenge and we sure appreciate you coming on with us from Salt Lake all right hey Steve Steve I just want to um another story I had had someone um this is a long time ago they called me up and they said yeah your program didn’t work I said what do you mean he goes well I did I did it for two weeks and it did help but then I went back to my normal foods and then it came back I said uh okay um what are you eating you know it’s just completely junk food but the liver the liver actually takes a beating it can bounce back pretty uh I mean fairly quick but it does take a longer time to really uh stabilize the liver but data that you could strip off 50 of the fat in your liver within two weeks I mean that’s like wow incredible incredible to be able to do that and um so I’ve seen some incredible things so uh the body has this incredible ability to bounce back and heal itself it put in the right condition yeah well I tell you I always uh chime in uh and the biggest factor that I found in following uh these guidelines no cures involved is my emotional state I really suffer when I eat sugar and carbs and all that uh I mean and it takes about two or three days if I get off a healthy eating for me to really realize I don’t know what how am I why am I so depressed why am I so down and it seems like it sneaks up on me and I realize well and so uh you know that’s been a good um Rod so to speak to keep me on check more than weight or perception of some kind of health because I feel good I like to feel good and emotionally that comes about a lot less depression so on just from eating as you said you know real food it’s not like you’re trying to you know sacrifice or something you’re just trying to get rid of the junk that seems to surround us today so thank you for that uh Dr Berg yeah I think so for for some reason you just don’t like feeling depressed is that what you’re trying to tell me yeah I didn’t I don’t like it some people I think they really love it but for me not for me okay all right so uh we had our first quiz question which you um kind of regurgitated in a different way but we’re trusting that the audience uh understood what you said and here’s the following uh answers from them 80 of the respondents say it’s true and 20 say it’s false there’s this is a very interesting thing because this is something very new for me as an understanding because in my mind I thought all toxic Metals um were just toxic but apparently they have the potential at least in animal studies they can act as an essential nutrient and if you deplete them of a hundred percent of it you start having problems in reproduction and growth so this kind of you know leads me to believe that um all these things in the Earth all these minerals the trace minerals probably we need all of them uh to some degrees some degree and uh um because if you look at there’s only so many essential minerals or trace minerals or vitamins but other ones are not essential because um you know we really haven’t found the evidence but that doesn’t mean it’s not essential they just haven’t found it yet but um so I think we do need um everything as a package but just the key with the toxic Metals is that they’re more poisons is it’s the dose it’s that’s the dose so you don’t you want to keep it low Becca from YouTube I think she’s got a good question should I be taking your gallbladder formula if I already have gallstones well uh bile salts which is in the gallbladder formula has been known to help break down gallstones so that would be a smart thing to do because what is a gallstone it’s a it’s a super concentrated usually cholesterol Stone well how did it develop what condition it develops from a person not having enough bile but yet having too much concentrated cholesterol so what do we do do we just cut out the cholesterol or do we just increase the bile well I like uh number two that seems to be smarter so here’s poor Sandy from Facebook how can I get rid of bloating I don’t eat as much as I should because of the bloating my doctors gave me meds for gas and bloating but they’re not working help hmm yeah I I’m I’ll release that video that I did on bloating apparently I didn’t really see yet because this is the video that you need to watch um the the most important thing to realize about bloating it’s not about adding something to the diet or a remedy or anything you want to subtract something you want to get rid of something it’s usually related to food okay it’s related f
