Your Nails Help Diagnose Nutrient Deficiencies

[@carolcaley6860]

You saved me from knee pain that caused me to use crutches in my home and a cane in public. I discovered your message on The Signs of Magnesium Deficiency. After a week of Magnesium added to my pill case I put away the crutches and several weeks later the cane. I have been a subscriber ever since.

One of the things I noticed when I went on Keto was an improvement in my nails. They became much less brittle yet stronger. Along with less joint and back pain this was just another indicator of health improvement from cutting carbs.

I have been on Levothroxin for 15 years. Dr Berg taught on Iodine. I started to put 2% Iodine on my skin. I had a lab draw and a followup with my MD, he said my Thyroid and Liver were really doing well and that he might need to lower the Levothyroxine dosage! Thanks Dr Berg!

However, since iodine pushes your TSH levels high, without checking for T3 and T4, “modern medicine” doctors immediately increase your levothroxin dose! If you start using iodine, you need to follow up with an iodine trained doctor.

@@healthyketoexperiment7964 No. It doesn't. You don't know what you're talking about. There is nothing "unhealthy" about high-protein, and there's nothing "healthy" about eating too little. I'm always in ketosis. If you're in ketosis, you're keto. PS: I lost over 100 pounds and have been keto over three years. I know a little something about this. I see you've had this youtube account for a couple weeks. I hope you've been doing keto for longer than that, since you're telling people what keto is and isn't. I'm fully aware of Dr Berg's opinion about protein, and about a slew of other keto doctor's opinion about protein not being the same. Newbies can benefit from lowering the protein to the absolute minimum, but typically, they don't know what they're doing. As I did, they'll end up with problems from eating too little protein. I am still in the process of repairing the damage.

[@healthyketoexperiment7964]

@@CarbageMan So what do you mean by “high” protein? Keto is only supposed to be around 20% protein of one’s caloric intake. And that’s called moderate protein. You can have your own standards but then define them so we can understand each other. I’ve had my troubles when I ate too much proteins vs fats too. Now coming back to Dr Berg’s ratios, quite a few symptoms disappeared.

[@CarbageMan]

@@healthyketoexperiment7964 Just stop pushing the orthodoxy you don't understand. That may work for newbies for several weeks, but when you've been keto for an extended period of time, you'll probably realize all that fat will keep you from losing fat. When you reduce the fat, your protein goes up. I'm at around 35% protein. and around 5% carbs. This is because I'm eating approximately 150g of protein a day and cutting back on the fat. In any case, keto is being in ketosis. I'm in ketosis. Do what works for you. I'll do what works for me. It works better that way.

Whatever I search for, Dr. Berg has a video explaining it! Thank you so much❤

[@Drberg]

That's great! Glad I could help!

I appreciate your expertise Dr.Berg 👌 Question: Why do they test ferritin iron but not B12 iron on standard test ? That is only giving you 50% of your iron results ...If both irons are from animal protein why would one be deficient and not the other?

Thank you dr. Berg. For the important information you been posting. You helped me lost 19 kilo. From 85 kilo down to 66 kilo. I am now on healthy diet. God bless you always ❤😊🎉

thank you so much for these videos, they are so informative. You are doing a great service to humanity. This is your calling in life, or so it seems. Are you a Christian?

We appreciate you. I’ve always have soft nails. I amp up on the supplements and veggies

Dr. Berg you are a wonderland of knowledge & love your videos. As to this presentation, I had severe wavy.ridges in my thumb nails. I just happened to look at them after watching & noticed how smooth & NORMAL they look now. Wow!!! I began taking biotin gummies for my hair actually & now I see my nails look great!

[@healthyketoexperiment7964]

Wow great! Thank you so much for sharing!

Have you shared your successes on Dr Berg's website or his Facebook group? Many people will greatly benefit from reading them 💞💞💞

[@dorothyschoenfeldt8319]

No - I don’t do Facebook

[@KenzXYZ]

Dorothy, was it the biotin that cleared out the waves of your thumbnails or any other supplements as well?

[@LeannMyway]

I have the same thing. The thumb nails have vertical ridges.
