Thank you Dr.Berg! After an intense sneeze on April 19th , 2024 I've been suffering with intense throat pain every time I swallow. Basically the feeling of glass shards going down the right side of my throat. As if a thick slime is stuck in that area. I started doing a Netty pot twice a day for the last two weeks with little relief. On my third doctors visit a culture was finally ran and it wasn’t strep throat. I was prescribed two opioids for pain and given an ENT appointment in two weeks. The three doctors only seemed focused on telling me a sneeze wouldn't cause throat pain. They didn't really acknowledge my symptoms. I did not fill the RX for the opioids. No thanks. Last night at midnight the first thing on my feed was Dr. Berg talking about sinuses. After watching the video twice, I leaped out of bed, mixed some Himalayan salt water to drink and put some drops in my ears. I woke up this morning feeling amazing. I realize I may be suffering from an inner ear infection. My ears haven’t felt this open in awhile and it’s only been less than one day using the salt. My pain has gone down to 1 out of 10 which is down from an 8 of out 10. You are amazing Dr. Berg and I am grateful for you and your work. Thank you 🎉 😀

I used the 1 tsp. Celtic salt in 1 cup of water. I drank it down. I felt A LOT better the next day. It did break up the mucus but, I don’t think I would do that more than once. I would think too much salt in my system could really dry me out. I have taken a tsp. of Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar in my tea, every morning, for 20 years. I think a tablespoon of it would be better for me. I just don’t eat anything after 7:00 p.m. That has been the ONLY thing that has helped my GERD and nighttime aspirating incidences.

Bring it to a table, a place where you can sit, remove the lid then when it has slightly cooled down, carefully begin to inhale the vapors. After a few minutes, you can cover it with a towel over the pot and over your nose, to avoid cooling down too quickly, and to channel the vapors to your breathing.

@sandraerusan2150 I would put half a teaspoon into a water bottle & shake it up. Depending on how bad my lungs was at the time. I was drinking it everyday until I got my breathing back under control. Thyme also helps.

[@sandraerusan2150]

@rkingromeo thank you so much for the info..

[@madelinerodriguez6966]

Wow, this is giving me hope to try this. Thank you for sharing how it helped!

[@rontibm1621]

I am from India and I had tonsil growing up and have dust allergy, doctors here always recommend warm salt water gargle. It is also pretty common here since ancient times. We use normal sea salt. Some people cant swallow or gargle with salt water coz they might vomit, for them commonly betadine gargling solution is used. Even with severe throat infections which are treated with antibiotics, doctors still recommend salt water gargling and it surely does help and I can testify to that. If some one has mild throat itchiness, they can cure it just by gargling 2-3 times a day. The key is to start early and not wait till it gets worse.Good to see a western doctor sharing this easy home remedy. PS : Steam helps tremendously for for blocked nose and sinus. Steam from pots, steam rooms they not only clear nostrils but helps clearing mucus from chest as well. Another thing that helps chest mucus cleaning is swimming. I am no expert but these are my personal life experiences.

[@echopeakbicycling85]

We have tried salt and steam. Both work well, in clearing mucus naturally. Take care and be well.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:53 🧂 *Salt effectively inhibits microbial growth like bacteria, fungus, yeast, and mold through dehydration, making it a useful agent for eliminating mucus-related infections.* 01:44 🤧 *Salt thins mucus, aiding in loosening thick mucus and improving respiratory conditions by thinning and eliminating mucus buildup originating from sinuses, ears, or tonsils.* 03:35 🥤 *A teaspoon of sea salt dissolved in water can be ingested or gargled to expose the throat and mouth to salt, effectively inhibiting microbial growth and thinning mucus for improved immunity.* 04:30 🌊 *Nasal irrigation using saltwater in a neti pot aids in thinning mucus and removing nasal congestion, particularly effective for post-nasal drips associated with fungal infections.* 05:39 🍎 *Adding a teaspoon of diluted apple cider vinegar to saltwater gargles can further kill microbes and reduce inflammation, supporting an antibacterial effect.* 07:58 🛏️ *Using a humidifier with saltwater during sleep can help thin mucus in the respiratory system, promoting improved breathing and mucus clearance.* 09:49 🔊 *For ear infections or mucus in Eustachian tubes, applying drops of saltwater, diluted apple cider vinegar, or garlic oil can help thin mucus and alleviate congestion.*

I have a bad sinus and throat infection, and I was told to do exactly what you have said, but, I prevaricated! Now, I am just going to do this IMMEDIATELY!! Gargle and put a few drops in my ears!! Stay blessed always and be the blessing that you are in so many lives doctor!!!

[@aimeemetzinger6718]

Dr. Bergis saying to drink a glass, not gargle.

My Grandmother taught me this exact remedy! Dr. Berg does it again‼️💯🥰

[@wendykittleson400]

I'm adding this comment to last week's comment. I have been listening and watching many different videos on this mucus issue. I will have to say, Dr. Berg truly has the answers for me, with respect to the salt water. My throat has been intermittently closing up when I eat. My nose gets stuffed up right after this happens. I'm sipping on the salt water with my meals. It's still helping! Thank you for your goodness, Dr. Berg. I keep a log of everything that goes into my mouth. It helps.

[@bug934]

I've had a cough/mucus for a week. I just made up a cup of hot water with tsp redmond salt and tsp ACV. The first sip was so soothing. Wonderful remedy

[@theseasideshaman]

I appreciate the mention of fungus, because I’ve had chronic sinus troubles for years and in prayer it recently came to me that a form of candidiasis was the culprit. I’ve been guided to cut way back on breads and sugar as you mention here, and my massage therapist suggested mineral salts to help clear out the mucus. This is very helpful, thank you!

[@nupuruils]

How did you get tested to check for candida inside nose? And are you better with dietary changes?

[@mamaconde8588]

Thank you Dr Berg ,🙏🙏🙏

[@Drberg]

You're most welcome!

[@Scott-bc7du]

I grew up in PA, had bad hay fever yet continued to bail hay. I had awful sinus headaches even after moving away. One day I went swimming and tried swimming to the bottom. As I got deeper, pressure and pain started in my sinuses, I surfaced and tried again, each time able to go a little deeper. Apparently the repeated pressure changes loosened everything up, when I blew my nose it was the thickest, greenest mucus I'd ever seen. I have not had a sinus headaches since and that was 40 years ago.

[@dreamthedream8929]

That's interesting. Looks like it helped you. A relief right after that. Maybe there is another way to get the same results. Many people cannot swim to the bottom or down. I don't know how to do it as well

[@lfcfan4557]

Recently I got hit by a very nasty flu that had me coughing for over a month and it wouldn’t go away. Now that I’m watching this video, I realized that I may have done all that Dr. Berg just said inadvertently and got rid of the mucus in my throat and stopped coughing none stop. I do long distance driving for a living, and consume a lot of pumpkin, or sunflower seeds while driving (They help me stay awake)😵‍💫. They are both lightly salted and make me drink plenty of water too, and by my wife’s advice I also used a heating pad by placing it behind my back, and that made me feel better (Always listen to your wife)😊. After the trip, I can say 99% of my coughing was gone and my throat felt much better, BTW I was drinking plenty of hot tea with cloves and cinnamon sticks added in the water while boiling. Finaly, thanks to Dr. for all the great advice, they really help a lot.

[@Keezy1987]

Are u saying pumpkin and sunflower seeds are bad?

[@lfcfan4557]

@@Keezy1987 I don’t know how you concluded me saying pumpkin, and sunflower seeds are bad! What I’ve said is that I had plenty of salty seeds, and drank water, and kept my body warm, which is exactly whet Dr. Berg recommends in his video (Gurgling the throat with salty water, and keeping yourself warm). I hope this answers your question.

[@markpartoza7959]

This doctor is a genius, my sore throat last in one week this is my problem i'll try this thanks doctor berg❤

Neti pot shud never be done without doing kapalbhati which is done in three different ways. PLEASE don't forget that salt can also alleviate BP , I am a certified Yoga Teacher and Ayurveda Consultant. I wouldn't Suggest people to do a neti pot without instructions,it can cause nasal moisture build up or headaches. Hope I helped.

[@jeffclarkofclarklesparkle3103]

There is another natural alternative as well. It works AMAZING not just ok. The plant mullein is what i use. I buy an extract from St.Francis herb farms. It keeps the sinus working properly and makes it very very easy to expectorate (cough out) phlegm in your lungs with a light cough or two or even a light clearing of the throat. I breathe like im 14 again

​@@DrbergHello, my inner ichy waxy ears which I've had for weeks keeps coming back. Some days I wake with flemy tongusals and nose. It's not infection related, though I did get over one while back. Question: can I use bicarbonate soda ear trops to take away ichy ear tubes???

[@helenevion5948]

Some of Dr Berg’s videos /articles / videos playlists on ear wax and on itchy skin/ liver may answer this.

[@getbeget-_-]

​@@DrbergIt would be more than beneficial a video for all those who suffer from sinusitis caused by root canal tooth extraction with roots in the sinus. After tooth extraction with root canal on the 10th day the symptoms of green mucus post-nasal drips appeared, they are already in the 3rd week. What would be the causes: change of oral flora to sinus flora, diffusion of ceramic material (toxic) into sinus etc. and solutions to let the body heal naturally and fast? Thank you. I have followed you for years.

Since changing to a strict ketogenic diet 18 months ago, was surprised to easily use over a kilo of salt. Medical tests are nominal and infections are gone within 8-12 hours. Doctors are animated regarding my age and previous conditions during office visits now. Enjoy using your products, especially D3/K2 which is taken 4x/day

[@helenevion5948]

That’s awesome 👏 I love when doctors are getting curious 🧐 🎉🎉

[@JLWPChroniclesofCodapolis]

I recommend using baking soda paste as a toothpaste and salt water as a mouthwash while being sick like you're explaining. Generally toothpastes have sugar and fluoride, two things that encourage more "yuck".

[@vaderladyl]

I use natural paste that has baking soda, best thing to neutralize plaque, bacteria, sugar acids in the mouth.
