What is Keto Rash? - Dr. Berg

What is keto rash, and how do you get rid of it? Find out.

hi guys this is dr. Berg in this short video  I want to discuss this thing called keto rash here you go on this ketogenic diet and you end  up with this terrible rash right what is that well if you look it up there’s hardly a lot of  information on this there’s not much information it’s hard to know what it is and so people try  all sorts of things and they start eating more carbs and let me tell you what I think it is and  I think this is just my theory and what it is if you look at a rap you this rash it’s usually  itchy okay it’s called pruritus and itchiness is really coming from the liver high levels of  what’s called histamines are dumped up in the liver because when you switch over to ketogenic  or you’re running on ketones all you’re releasing tons and tons of fat that’s coming out through  the liver okay and if you don’t consume enough vegetable so you’re going to actually end up with  a fatty liver but you’re dumping more fat okay and that fat holds a lot of stuff like chemicals and  toxins and things like that but what happens if you don’t have enough bile B I L E okay in your  gallbladder and you do the ketogenic diet you might not be able to release though the toxins  that are coming out with the fat in a proper matter and you’re going to create a little bit  of the immune reaction with these histamines okay because one of the purposes of bile is to break  down fats but the other purpose is to eliminate toxins so here you are jumping trying to get rid  of these toxins but you don’t have enough bile to handle the fat on the ketogenic diet and then you  end up with this rash so what is the solution you need to add some purified bile salts you can use  my formula which is the gallbladder formula or you can just find some purified bile salts but  what will happen is that will increase the flow of bile through the liver and gall bladder so you  eliminate the toxins a lot better and reduce this rash this reaction that’s occurring alright  thanks for watching I’ll see you next video
