Exactly! Most recipes I have ever used only call for a pinch and up to 1/4 tsp (rarely 1/2 tsp) nutmeg at most, and that is for many servings. NYT ran an article and here's an exerpt: "The study also explains how much is considered toxic, saying that 1 to 3 nutmegs, or 5 to 15 grams (that's 1 to 3 teaspoons), is the reported toxic dose. This intoxication usually passes in 24 hours, the report says, though in some cases psychosis has set in for up to six months." Still need to keep it away from small children and overly adventurous teens, though.

I got it, washed it thoroughly, soaked it for like 3 hrs and cooked it. since I started eating that rice, I never felt the pains again, in fact my stomach felt healed.

About the rice and arsenic. I’ve researched this. It totally depends on where it is grown. He is right, it’s in the soil. It also is affected by irrigation methods. You can actually look up which places have more or less arsenic. The least amounts are found in California, Malawi, India and Pakistan (basmati), and Thailand (jasmine rice) You can also get rid of arsenic in rice by soaking and rinsing, and cooking it in more water (then drain it).

Eric, there was a doctor who treated hundreds of patients with cancer with laetrile (natural cyanide) from bitter almonds and apricot seeds. I have tried these before and I did get a headache so the cyanide is real. Interesting thing is the laetrile seems to "know" when a cell is being devoured by a tumour and only releases the cyanide into the damaged/tumorous cell. It is basically nature's chemotherapy. patients have been able to eat up to 50 a day, which makes them sick, but it kills the cancer before it kills the patient and the damage/recovery is, as far as I know, more gentle. My headache was only an hour or so. This was shut down by the germ theorist mafia but the testimony of all his patients still stands as testimony to the effectiveness of natural cyanide in a controlled dose.

It's part of a bigger molecule called nitriloside, consisting of cyanide, benzaldehyde and glucose, also known as vitamin b17. Human cells take them in, and inside there are two enzymes interacting with the nitriloside. The first one, called beta glucosidase takes it apart to its component, yielding cyanide, benzaldehyde and sugar. This enzyme is present in small amount. In a much larger amount there's the second enzyme, rhodanese, which convert cyanide and benzaldehyde into molecules that are good for the body, relaxing, improving blood pressure, and more. On the other hand, cancer cells contain great amount of beta glucosidase and no rhodanese, therefore nitrilosides entering those cells become large amount of cyanide, with no rhodnanese to neutralize them, hence they kill them. Bottom line, in the apricot case, as in apple pits and more seeds, the cyanide is a good thing, as it's part of many other entities and processes. I wonder if it could be the case also for green almonds and cherry pits.

In eastern Europe apricot kernels are consumed especially for cancer treatment due to the effects from natural content of amygdalin/cyanide which is known to kill cancer cells.

Nutmeg permanently sorted out my insomnia. I started having trouble sleeping after a major surgery a few years ago. It seemed to me that it was the general anesthesia that caused it, but I can't be certain. I wasn't able to sleep normally for a couple of years. I tried every natural remedy I could find and eventually I had to ask my doctor for some sleeping pills because I wasn't able to function. One day, I found out about nutmeg and its dangerous side effects if overdosed. The sleeping pills (which I agreed with my GP I would only take 2-3 times a week) were giving me bad side effects, so I decided to give nutmeg a go. I used quarter of a teaspoon 10 minutes before going to bed. It worked like a charm. I stopped taking the sleeping pills and started taking nutmeg every night. After a few weeks I stopped taking it, because I felt I didn't need it anymore. I was right, the insomnia was gone and I haven't had any trouble sleeping since.

He is a superbig fan of keto and would tell you that keto is the best thing ever to do. But people are not all the same. There are those who profit from high fat/low carbs and others who suffer. I know a man who wrecked his pankreas with 2 years of keto (he and his wife did it like scientists, only the best of food were good enough, no fast food, no trash, no cheap meat. Now he had already suffered through 3 severe fits of pancreatis and turned diabetic and it is for sure that is was the keto diet that didn't suit his body). I know other people who thrived with this but weren't able to keep it up forever - the craving for rice and pasta, for ice cream and chocolate were too hard to avoid it. I can't do it, I'm multi-intolerant against everything and happy with the very few things I can actually eat. If this kind of diet would fit for you - nobody can say. You might give it try for a few month and I'm almost sure that it shouldn't hurt you. But are you willing to give up pasta and bread forever? Because you will of course loose weight when in ketosis but what is it gonna be when you break out of it?

One thing to note is that swallowing a cherry pit will likely do nothing, because the cyanide (technically in a compound called amygdalin, which your body has to break down, not gaseous HCN) is contained inside the pit. If you chew it your body will have access to way more of the amygdalin than the practically zero if you just swallow it whole. Birds swallow cherry pits all the time and they're fine.

But then, the instruction has often been, "A PINCH of nutmeg". How much a "pinch" is is probably debatable, but that wording should indicate that one shouldn't use very much. I think there are a couple of other spices that are also toxic in larger quantities -- I think rosemary is one, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe thyme? I do hope that Paprika is safe, because I put a LOT of that on my homemade potato salads. Makes one rethink some of these traditional culinary practices ....

Bruh, i'm indonesian, and here we use nutmeg for most of spices... we eat rice and including brown rice. Neither of us suffer poisoning from those plants... Now i'm questioning this doctor overreact or just the western people have different biological system or different types of nutmeg and brown rice.

​@@christinasuhadiIt seems that Americans are much healtier on butter, eggs, bacon, meat .... But rice and spices are killing them???

I just cut my meal size down and stopped all sugar while eating only between noon and 6 pm. I lost 60 pounds so far since maybe last Oct. I don't eat much pasta but still do. I feel quite a bit better in my disability now without the weight.

Doc, you are looking younger and fresher everyday. You are doing a good job and God is showering you with blessings 🤗

Dr Berg. Brown rice is the best rice you can have. Its basically an American problem with your farming. Brown rice contains more vitamins and roughage than white rice and has been eaten for centuries in most of the world

[@trevorregay9283]

its more a Texas and Arkansas problem....rice from other areas of the USA aren't arsenic laden....at least that is what I've been told and read about.....

[@prettypinky6943]

Dr. Berg has me confused now. 😕 But happy I can still have Spanish rice!

[@adamasesay3020]

That's true I don't believe his information brown rice is the best may be because he is on kito every body needs to be on kito too my mum use brown rice to cook and she is ok

[@tjurostas3704]

I put chinese soy on my rice so it gets brown because then it’s more healthy and tastes better

[@piet5756]

Yeah not sure about the brown rice.

Well, here in ND we have a limited variety of fruits, cherries are my favorite!! I have swallowed pits by accident and nothing has happened and it comes out in one piece. I have read before in order cherries to be poisonous you need to eat 3k pounds!! Cherries are anti-inflammatory and anti aging.

Actually green raw almonds are pretty common here in Turkey and they are known as "çağla". You can find it pretty much in every farmer's market in season and I've never heard someone who got sick.

Exactly because NO ONE eats as much as you need to eat to be poisoned.

What happens if you put nutmeg in your pipe and smoke it?

[@cassiopeialight9764]

In Greece we also eat them, I guess these are sweet almonds not the bitter almonds and it's ok? That's what I understood

[@josecarranza7555]

🤦🏻‍♂️ I’ve heard for years that brown rice is healthier than white rice. But thanks, doctor.

Parboiled rice is healthy

Could you please make a video about risks of Potassium FerroCyanide which is used on salts as an additive agent? It is used in rafined salts in Turkey.

Dr Berg I always was given 1mg nutmeg with honey as a kid for bad tummy and inflammation. From Ayurveda to ancient medicines, nutmeg has been used as a potent spice to improve sleep,health, immunity and what not! It is packed with the goodness of minerals such as magnesium, manganese and copper and other essential vitamins such as B1, pl some clarification would be good.

CRAP! I just ate 1/2 cup of kidney beans 2 hours ago (felt a little uncooked) and I've got potatoes on the counter for tomorrow. I'm F&$%ED!!

potatoes also have patatin which I am allergic to. For 30 years I was diagnosed with gout. Twenty four years ago I was diagnosed with the onset of arthritis, the year 2017 I was diagnosed with gout, rheumatoid arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, leaky gut syndrome, etc.... Was on many meds and seeing specialists. I was about to go on permanent disability and went to see a naturopath. I had nothing to lose. He diagnosed a potato intolerance. I am no longer on meds. Potatoes are a member of the nightshade family, peppers and tomatoes. Peppers and tomatoes have solanine in them but no patatin. I can eat peppers and tomatoes with no side effects. Allergy Patatin is identified as a major cause of potato allergy.[5] It has found to be similar to latex, and when in contact with open skin, there has been an increase of immunoglobulin E which causes some allergic reactions and symptoms, such as asthmatic symptoms, or atopic dermatitis.[6] It is unclear as to why the plant does this, however it could be a potential defense mechanism against insects.[7]
