Gentlemen, especially those over 50. If you are getting up frequently at night to urinate and feel like your bladder does not fully empty get a PSA test immediately and consult your medical practitioner. I was fully keto since Feb 2023 and lost 30kgs, BP and blood glucose all normal. August 2023 and I was urinating 3-4 times a night . Consultation with a Urologist in Oct 2023 revealed Stage 4 Prostate Cancer, metastasized to upper skeleton and one lymph node in my pelvis. Any change in flow, quantity, frequency (day and night) get to a doctor. Don't be me.

Hope you’re doing better, but I ask you this. Stop scaring people with something that can be very common in men as feeling that in the middle of the night. It’s about getting older, and most men joke about it. My uncle told me when I was younger that when you hit 40, you’ll feel like you need to go when you’re going my boy 🤣. There are a lot of symptoms for a lot of things that come out to be nothing. I go fine during the day, but sometimes in the middle of the night it would be alittle weird. Had my full testing and a specialist said you’re body is half sleep, so everything is slowing down. It could be a UTI, it could be dozens of things in men after hitting 40ish. God bless you and I’m rooting for you, but stop the fear. This channel is actually getting ridiculous. I agree with a lot of what Dr B says, but some of it is off the charts. You can eat sugar in fruit or alittle sugar. Live life happily with being afraid of it. The amount of stress people have constantly focused on good or bad food will drive some nuts. End rant

What has really helped for me is not drinking liquid 3 hours before bedtime. Only small sips after that. Then last urination before bed do it sitting. Stand up for 4 seconds. Sit back down and rock back and fourth 4 times and relax. I’m always shocked I go another 1/2-1 cup or so of urine and go to bed with an empty bladder. I went from 2-3 times a night to sleeping straight through 7-8 hours!

The best way to address nocturia is to fix insulin resistance. To do this, stop snacking at night and work towards eliminating snacking altogether. Cut down your carb intake to less than 30 grams per day and do intermittent fasting. To speed things up, try consuming one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water before meals and exercise regularly.

This video couldnt be more on time. My problem had gotten so bad that I would literally feel like I have to pee and that would cause to me not to fall in deep sleep. It all started from last year when id just keep on thinking and to stop myself from thinking Id go to the bathroom. That habit has caused me to not sleep at all cz my brain's like "no not yet you might have to pee". Minimizimg anxiety is the key cz once i Fall in deep sleep earlier i sleep well.

[@anitahernandez1207]

It's not just an age issue, some kids are affected by waking up at night to pee or they will wet their bed. I knew of a friends granddaughter who had that problem and she had to get up with her in the middle of the night to assist her to the bathroom. The mom was a late night junk food eater and the environment was stressful. Doctors had no answers but now I believe that a child's eating habits and eating window is also important along with that sympathetic nervous system. Maybe some type of anxiety reaction too since children are getting used to their circadian rhythm. One night, the grandma fell in the bathroom while assisting her granddaughter and she called me to take her to the emergency room. She injured her arm. So, the timing of eating and what we eat matters.

[@maryfolks9368]

Wow, that's really sad. It's hard to even have a conversation with someone about late night eating, they get super defensive. Prayed for your friend 😊God bless you

[@Sephiroso.]

The vast majority of kids who have wet the bed almost certainly has nothing to do with their eating habits. It's a very common occurrence among kids. The most common and documented reasons for why it happens is due to a kid in a stressful environment, some kids simply need more time to learn to control their bladder, and also due to medical reasons like the ones the doctor listed out in this video. Your story is bogus as hell because if the doctors knew a kid lived in a stressful environment, they would have obviously mentioned that as a reason for why their kid wets the bed as that's one of the MOST common reasons for why it might happen.

[@anitahernandez1207]

@@Sephiroso. I don’t know where you live, but there are different communities in the nation that have cultural issues even in modernized cities. Yes, that household had a stressful environment which I thought was obvious with that true story, which involves eating habits. Eating habits are part of the environment. I’ve seen doctors who have done and said inappropriate things and there was really nothing I could do about it because it was part of their culture to be the way they were. So, I don’t know where you live in the world, but the story was 100% true as related to me. However, you are entitled to believe whatever you want to believe. You can believe that doctors are always right and never do anything wrong, or are highly educated and there are no health problems in the world or those health problems are the fault of the people and not any other industry. You’re more than welcome to think that.

The homeopathic remedy Cina stops bedwetting. It is caused by parasites which mainstream medicine know little about. Can be confirmed with a stool sample. Sometime kids have an itchy Anusara also.

Could you share WHY distilled water. Have heard several say sip not gulp water all day with a little salt under the tongue.

[@slaphappy5252]

@@sharonthompson3938 Sure, the reason is because it’s the purest form of water with it being 0 ppm, meaning it has no impurities or anything in it at that. I put a 1/4 tsp of Celtic Sea Salt in 1 gal to “mineralize” it. The Celtic Sea Salt has minerals in it and a higher amount of magnesium than pink Himalayan salt does. You are right by putting a dash under your tongue and drinking water slowly. You can also put it in your water and drink it slowly… that way your body absorbs it on a cellular level which is what we’re aiming for. I never thought or expected that it would settle my frequent urination issues… it wasn’t why I did it, but it most certainly did and I’m VERY grateful for that. Well I hope that helps you out and answers your question… take great care my dear.

[@slaphappy5252]

@@sharonthompson3938 Oh plus if you drink a lot of distilled water it does have a tendency to leach the body out of its minerals so it’s actually important to pay attention to your body and keep your mineral levels up. Also if I might add, frequent urination, sweating, vomiting, and diarrhea all will dehydrate the body while depleting the minerals. Frequent urination can be caused by many things including diuretics such as coffee, alcohol, medication, and even distilled water that hasn’t been mineralized. Distilled water is a diuretic and it will leach out the body of minerals but toxins too. It has its pluses and minuses but all in all is the best option imo. If it’s non corrosive, used in car batteries and cooling systems, then it’s good enough for my system. 🤙😊

We've been doing your kefir for about year now (but I've been slacking off over the last few months I must admit). Time to get back on it. Usually do water kefir at night (mixed with a bit of apple cider vinegar) and the milk version in the morning. When I do...do it, it truly works. Just proof to us what you say works. Will try these new tips. Thank you!

Been following Dr B's keto lifestyle since Summer 2023. In my 50s. Had high BP and was taking meds. Had sleep Apnea and was on a machine at night. Had acid indigestion often. I was overweight. I used to get up at night to pee. Now, take away the above conditions and that's the life I am now leading. Thank you For Berg for showing me how to heal myself.

[@Drberg]

Glad to hear keto helped you. Stay safe and healthy!

[@friguy8598]

I noticed a huge change from getting up on the hour every hour throughout the night when I cut all sugars and lower my carbs also cut out dairy products too... Thanx Dr. Berg for the life changing info!!!

[@brentmatheson4729]

I totally believe this. I hope what I am about to say is not TMI. I am obese, have hypertension and apnea. I use a CPAP machine for all times I sleep, even on vacation. I am on medication and my BP is controlled. I often get up in the night to go to the washroom. Then, I was told about your videos and I began intermittent fasting. At first, my wife and I only changed our patterns, not what we were eating. We used a 16:8 ratio as a target but most days we did closer to 19:5. In only three weeks I lost about 12 pounds and after the first week I started getting up a lot less during the night. Last week we went on vacation and decided to eat a three meals a day routine with breakfast, lunch and supper since we were going to be socializing and walking a lot. I admit I haven't stepped on the scale since we returned yesterday but i am sure i gained at least some weight back but more importantly, while on vacation, I found that i had to get up several times a night to go to the washroom. It was interesting and I didn't know why this was happening. We are back on the intermittent fasting and I will see what happens in a couple nights.

I am thin 64yo and have sleep apnea - Since adding more sea salt into my diet I no longer get up to pee. I used to 3 or 4 times a night. Electrolyte balance has a lot to do with it also.

I've been following Dr. Berg for several years and have made great strides with all of these suggestions. Definitely stopping sugar is key. But I've still had (age 69) leakage sometimes when I sneeze or strain really hard to pick up something heavy. I've just figured out recently, that when I eat a Berg salad for dinner, I'm more likely to wake up at 3am. Now I eat my salads (full of carbs and water) at noon and I can sleep until 5am before my bladder wakes me up. So my advice is NO SUGARS and NO EATING AFTER 7pm :)

[@dianasimplifies]

Why is your salad full of carbs?

[@LaneyandherGermanShepherds]

Your video was finally in my News Feed

[@scotniver7180]

Yep.. He's right.. However, I am on Tamulosin. But, I still followed Dr. Berg recommendations. Great results. Keeping me away from some mind of Turp procedures.. thanks again

[@sunset6958]

It might be different for some people, but i believe anterior pelvic tilt plays a significant role in this problem, once it messes with the pelvic floor the bladder cant hold pee as easily in the middle of the night which then causes you to wake up. So fix anterior pelvic tilt>>which flxes a tight pelvic floor>> bladder no longer wakes you up>>everything goes back to normal

[@howitsdone5096]

Yes, I use an electric activator to help my wife with this problem.

[@SweetChicagoGator]

Do explain anterior pelvic tilt? Don't know what you mean? 🙄

[@sunset6958]

its not a disease. It is just muscle imbalances that causes your pelvis to be constantly rotated forward. Common culprits are tight weak hip flexors, weak hamstrings and glutes, tight quads and even lats. It varies from person to person . I recommend the KZbin channel Upright health on that matter he's who I'm watching for that@@SweetChicagoGator

[@SweetChicagoGator]

@@sunset6958 Ok...Will check that channel out for upright exercise.

[@Ninaoutoftheblue]

Fascinating and such a thorough description of the problem. I have high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes T2, and sleep apnea - use a CPAP -- and I was getting up several times a night to pee. I have been using mouth tape for about two weeks and now sleep through the night and wake up more refreshed. I am also taking supplements for my nervous system and reducing sugar of course. Love Dr Berg's videos - share them often and definitely sending this one out asap.

[@fadety4307]

How do you use mouth tape? I have the same problems(hbp,T2diabetes, sleep apnea...).Thank you for sharing❤

[@Ultra_Marathoner_Denis_Keane]

What you taking for nervous system

[@markscott9622]

I was on the wrong side of the border of diabetes and early prostate cancer until I ment Dr. Berg online and followed his recipe to fight sugar in my diet. After only 3 months of following his diet advice, I had a PSA of 3 and blood sugar of 5. It is rare for me to take any advil or antihistamines. I am amazed every day.

Thank you doctor, I really needed this I bought the Flowmax but it wasn't that much change.

[@tigerhmz12]

Dr berg glad for very information thank you very much

[@WeAreAllOneNature]

Summary: Causes of peeing a lot at night:- * Obesity. * Sleep apnea (when you stop breathing while sleeping). * Insulin resistance. Treatments:- * Stop snacking. Even better = intermittent fasting (fewer meals). * One tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, with water, just before each meal. * Reduce carbohydrate intake to less than 30 grams per day. * Exercise regularly.

[@C.N.1]

Good morning to everyone! Thanks, Dr. Berg! 💪

You're welcome!

I'm 54. I have sleep apnea. You are correct on that one. I now have a CPAP machine so I took care of that. I've cut carbs for a while now. Gonna start cutting sugar. Started taking Saw Palmetto just in case. Only wake up one time a night now and its a full bladder.@@Drberg

Thanks Dr Berg for all the great information. I’m 68 year old male . I went on low carb diet along with intermittent fasting about three years ago lost 40 lbs . No late snacking . Still would get up to urinate 5 times a night . Had many tests like ultrasound checking bladder function, PSA tests, Was put on Flomax drug . Found out a had sleep apnea ! No more drugs . Started Cpap with just nose piece cushion . That was it !! Sleep all night never wake up anymore.

[@user-mk7op8mz7j]

Hi Scott, my husband has sleep apnea, just was wondering what nose piece cushion you use?

[@scottdouglas4562]

👋 Hi Joan oh no ! You’ll get used to the hose noise eventually 💨. I’m using resmed 10 machine . Started with F&P nose mask & headgear that always leaked . Now using resmed N20 very comfortable headgear with silicon or memory foam nose pieces . Great for side sleepers 🛌 good luck

[@ericchapman5975]

I got up every night to pee maybe more then once. BUT i drink a large glass of water about a hour before i go to bed . Fortunately i have zero issue falling back to sleep. And always wake up refreshed.
