Notes from Dr Berg: The kidneys are filters that convert blood into urine and recycle your fluid, protein, nutrients, and hormones. Other functions of the kidneys include: • Coordinating the amount of fluid in the body • Converting vitamin D into the active form of vitamin D • Regulating blood pressure • Regulating the hydration of the body • Eliminating toxins from the body High blood sugar levels can lead to diabetic nephropathy, one of the most common causes of kidney failure and end-stage renal disease. The first sign of kidney disease is nocturia, a situation where you urinate often during the night. Other common signs of kidney disease are protein in the urine and edema. I have found that the best way to stop nocturia is to focus on improving the person’s diabetes first. A high-carb diet is ultimately behind diabetes. The best ways to support your kidneys: 1. Go on a keto diet 2. Do intermittent fasting (one and a half meals a day) 3. Consume plant phytonutrients 4. Take benfotiamine 5. Take alpha-lipoic acid 6. Consume turmeric Thank you Dr Berg!! 🐱👍🏿

I was 28 years old when I constantly had infections on the bladder and kidneys. A lot of pain, a lot of antibiotics. To the point my doctor said didn't have to test my urine, i could get antibiotics whenever i felt ill. One day I was sick of it. Quite literally... two years later I got diagnosed with hypoglycemia and then I started keto and IF. I have never had an infection since then. 34y old now, happy and healthy.

Here is something weird too. I started having prostate issues since age 17. Yes you read that right, AGE 17! I did keto 3 years ago and I aside from it fixing what I expected it to fix, it seems to have fixed a 29 year long prostate problem too. This is making me theorize that most of the common health issues that there are so many drug ads for on TV are linked to metabolic syndrome and learning to fix that, will help you take care of most things that affect the US population.

What you put in is a serious thing. My granpa died last yr at 93. This dude got up every morning and ate ONLY fruits for breakfast, 1tablespoon of honey & one of olive oil. Lunch was fish or some meat with provisions like cassava, beet, dasheen etc. Very very rare he would eat flour or fried stuff. He always said "you must not eat too much". He was slim built, lived on his own & go have an occasional drink with friends at the bar. But he was always out the house. He told me "eat right, and never sit down in a house all the time like most old folk. Get out and socialise". I believe him 💯💯percent. I was over weight & made the effort and adopted his diet. I lost 50lbs in two months...my blood pressure & sugar levels are great. I use medication for my glaucoma, and i have never gotten the kind of readings i get now with that new way of living (i no longer call it my diet...its my new way of eating).

The only thing they found was I was high on cholesterol (I did consume a lot of eggs), high in vitamin d, high on b12 and barely low on MCV (meaning I’m a little anemic).

There appear to be so many remedies for kidney related issues such as waking in the night many times which I have been having for more than 10 years. Ever since I started ketogenic diet and OMAD, my diabetes is virtually gone, I am insulin sensitive, have a very good BMI and the best of all is that I seldom wake up even once a night to urinate. My Fitbit says I get about 1.5 hrs of deep sleep and about 1.25 hrs of sleep interruption, resulting in solid 7 hrs sleep with sleep score always above 80%. Thanks to you Dr. Berg for producing these wonderful no frill videos that helped me to change my life style around. many thanks to COVID as well. By the way after taking medication for diabetes for almost 20 years, now I am free of any medications.

Saturated animal fat is toxic. The studies that have the replacement for the saturated animal fat being whole carbs shows heart disease to be much higher when a person consumes animal products. These are randomized controlled studies. The studies that show saturated fat is okay are the ones that DO NOT specify what the missing saturated animal fats were replaced with so people probably replaced them with fatty processed food, thus no difference between the saturated animal fats and the processed. So the influencers latch onto the idea that saturated animal fat is okay without realizing the study parameters are flawed. So in essence, plant based diets, whole plants, is best and healthiest.

That turns to sugars = more fat. - DO NOT SNACK BETWEEN MEALS - snacking starts the whole digestive process all over which is overtaxing your liver. That IS THE KEY. Only having a tea (nothing added - no sugars milk or anything to the tea) you can drink between meals - green tea is best. Make sure it’s organic add nothing to it. (WALK FOR 1 hour minimum during the day. Your body wants to move so move it. A sedentary lifestyle will clot the blood) next meal - 530pm SALAD ONLY with nuts almonds or walnuts or both. This can be a huge salad. DO NOT PUT CREAM STYLE DRESSING ON YOUR SALADS. Find alternative dressings like Italian etc. no cream dressings. - after your PM meal DO NOT EAT AGAIN ANYTHING! NO SNACKING AT ALL ! - this is the absolute key. Your liver must rest. After the 5:30pm meal do not eat again until 1030 AM THE NEXT DAY. - you can drink lemon water. In-between meal periods.

My husband has stage 4 kidney failure at the age of 49. Right before he seen the specialist I knew he was getting worse because his feet and ankles were swelling so bad. He's diabetic and his regular doctor wants him on insulin. I can tell when his sugar is up because he has to pee every 15 to 20 minutes. Its been a painful journey watching him decline, he's my best friend.

Now I’m on BP medication, I take my BP twice a day. I have my blood taken every other month to check kidney function and then every 6 months I see a Nephrologist with extensive blood work.

So, to my doctor, I mentioned the foaming that I was seeing, and she jumped right on it. We are going to change my meds.

As someone whose father died as a result of kidney disease, induced by type 2diabetes, this subject hits really close to home. Thank you Dr. Berg. Not only does the topic of kidney disease resonate strongly with me, because it led to father's demise, it is particularly salient now because kidney disease is running rampant throughout the population, mainly as a result of just how rapidly type 2 diabetes is afflicting the population. I remember when my father first developed nephropathy in 1994, it was rare to see dialysis centers anywhere near my neighborhood. You had to drive a considerable distance to get to one. Now, I know of 3 kidney dialysis centers that are walking distance from my same neighborhood. When my father was first diagnosed with this disease, you would never see advertisements for dialysis on TV. Now advertisements for dialysis services are as common place as advertisements McDonalds

I also can’t trust anything that’s premade I have to make everything myself It’s been hard on me, but it’s been really worth it & I may live longer because of it I did it because the doctor scared the heck out of me and said she was gonna have to put me on insulin NOPE 👎🏼 I am older women , so change can happen at any age.

Just the info I NEED ~ so grateful to you Dr. B! My Nephrologist just wants to push one pill on top of another pill. Has never asked about my diet, has never bothered to explain CKD (3b) or offer health-promoting strategies ~ just more pills, get bloodwork done again and make another appointment in 3 months. I worked in healthcare so I am intimately familiar with its stressors and challenges. I also know that medicine is a business and I get that the primary goal of business is to stay in business. Just boggles my mind though, that American MD's won't get out of bed with pharmacology reps (and "Big Pharma" won't get out of bed with the FDA!) and start addressing root casues instead of just controlling or managing symptoms with meds. (Sometimes even worse: do nothing at all ~ "Let's just wait and see.") It's a smart and lucrative business model as it ensures the continuous return of paying customers (keeping existing patients) vs getting them healthy enough to not need you and having to constantly seek an ongoing revenue stream by pulling in new patients. Medical education would have to change for this to occur though, and this seems insurmountable (so was a vacinnation for polio and an effective treatment for AIDS), but of course it isn't. It's just hard, and where there is no will, there's no looking for a way. * SIGH *

@@patriciahercules6852 I wish I knew I was a kid when my grandma talked about it. I’ve asked my grandma but because our cultural background we don’t eat overly processed food so basically she said she stoped eating corn made products, tortillas, tamales anything made with corn, and bread, any flour made baked goods, and rice which is an staple food in our country. I was back home 4 years ago she eats lots of kidney beans and brócoli also we are from the sea port area and they eat lots fish only with salt fried in lard. She eats lots of herbs too, we have banana trees and coconut trees in our backyard so she eats seasonal fruit , she eats rather simple, she doesn’t eat lots of spices basically salt and lots of raw herbs like mint, basil, loroco flower and fried fish, random stews once a week with carrots, onions. We also ferment lots of peppers and eats lots of vinagre with our cabbage, we basically pickle cabbage in vinagre and salt. Anyways is more of a cultural take but she said taking away from her diet corn, flour, sugar and coffee is when she stopped feeling dizzy.

Hi, KC. Your grandma likely had type 2 diabetes, as that condition is one that develops in humans due to diet, whereas with type 1 a person is born with and is irreversible, requiring insulin for life because their body does not make insulin.

Managing diabetes and chronic illness is where the money is. It is up to us, with help from people like you and Dr.Ken Berry educating us how to take back our health. For those of us with 12-hour shifts at work, it is difficult to eat the way you actually need to. (12 hrs work shift is one of the worst things that ever happened to us.)Do your research and ask lots of questions. Your doctors might not like you for wasting more than 10 minutes of their time, but it's your life and your body. Nobody knows your body better than you if you pay attention to it. Keep a health journal. Good luck on your health journey.

My sister was a general nurse in Scotland and in the late 80’s (my 24th birthday 1.11.89) she emigrated to Australia and specialised in renal nursing and attended Oz Uni and is now presumably as clever as a a kidney doctor and she told me (although I already kind of knew) that she dealt with loads of kidney problems from non opiate painkillers.

All I did was reduce my intake of sugars, grains, and starches by about 90% and, just 3 days later, my nighttime bathroom visits went from 4 each night down to 0. That was about 5 months ago. Since then, several other problems have diminished as well. I was not even trying to lose weight. But most of my fat is now gone.

@rafaelshumaker1883 Жыл бұрын
Well, I am reluctant to be impolite. But I was most surprised that my E.D. began to diminish. That happened after about 3 weeks. I was also surprised about my belt getting looser. Every few days I have been taking it to a tighter notch. When I began, it was on the final notch. Now it's on the first notch, and feeling loose again. Also, sometimes I think my essential tremors might be getting a little better. But if that symptom is even related, it was one of the first symptoms, coming very gradually, and so likely will be among the last to disappear. I know there are other symptoms that have diminished already, but don't recall what they were. Then again, most of my symptoms have been rather slight anyway. These 4 that I've mentioned are the most prominent.

ED isn’t just age related, there is generally an underlying cause. Hormonal and circulatory issues could very well be diet related. 👍🏻
