The Epley maneuver is helpful and works, but for many people, vertigo keeps coming back. That’s because the Epley maneuver moves the crystals that cause vertigo, but it doesn’t address why they’re becoming dislodged in the first place.

The most common type of vertigo is benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), which is caused by displaced calcium crystals in the inner ear. This condition is especially common in women after menopause.

A protein called osteopontin helps keep calcium crystals tightly attached to the hairs of the inner ear. When this protein gets too high, these crystals can break off and become displaced, causing dizziness. Vitamin D plays a key role in regulating this protein.

Here’s how to prevent vertigo and reduce the risk of recurrence.Vitamin D: take 6000 to 10,000 IU dailyVitamin K2: take 100 mcg of MK7 Vitamin K2 for every 10,000 IU of vitamin DMagnesium glycinate: take 400 mg daily

Try this protocol for several weeks to stop vertigo and keep it from coming back.

7:30 The most important factor for your health environment

Not everyone responds to simply changing their diet. Some people improve their diet and still struggle with weight loss and other health problems because diet is only one part of your overall health environment.

Daily movement is critical, and it doesn’t have to be formal exercise. Our ancestors walked 5 to 9 miles per day while lifting, carrying, and working. Movement can also help reduce stress, especially mental stress.

Our modern environment is engineered to feed addiction. Social media addiction, constant entertainment, and junk food can repeatedly spike dopamine and reinforce addictive behaviors.

Your chemical environment matters too. Pesticides, fragrances, and estrogen-mimicking chemicals can all affect your health. Eating healthy food may not be enough to overcome constant exposure.

Lack of sun exposure, poor sleep, and less social connection can also interfere with your health. Changing these everyday habits and your environment is just as important as changing what’s on your plate.

There is only about 1 teaspoon of sugar in your blood at any given time. That amount can rise to around 1.5 teaspoons with prediabetes and 2 teaspoons with diabetes. Medication can help manage high blood sugar, but it doesn’t address the root cause.

Exercise is one of the best ways to lower blood sugar naturally because your muscles can use the excess glucose for energy. Walking after dinner can be especially beneficial for lowering blood glucose levels.

The order in which you eat your food can also affect blood glucose levels and help prevent blood sugar spikes. Meal timing matters too, so avoid eating too close to bedtime.

Removing sugar from your diet is one of the best ways to control blood sugar. This can also help your body burn fat for fuel while reducing cravings and appetite.

Most chest infections, especially bronchitis and pneumonia, are caused by a viral infection. If you take antibiotics for a chest infection, you risk weakening the immune system and increasing inflammation and resistant bacteria. Not many drugs can combat a viral infection, so the immune system has to work to fight the virus.

There are several natural remedies that can help shorten the duration and intensity of a viral chest infection. Here are 7 of the best ones.

1. NAC: supports glutathione production and respiratory health

2. Black seed oil: has traditionally been used for immune and respiratory support

3. Andrographis: is commonly used for respiratory and immune health

4. South African geranium: has been studied for respiratory infections

5. Magnesium: supports normal respiratory and muscle function

6. Licorice root: has traditionally been used to soothe the throat and respiratory tract

7. Vitamin D3: plays an important role in immune function

Learn how these natural remedies work, when they may be most useful, and how to support your immune system and respiratory wellness during a chest infection.

Nearly 1 billion people worldwide suffer from migraines! People who suffer from migraines are often low in vitamin B2. Research has shown that taking 400 mg of vitamin B2 per day may reduce migraine frequency by about half.

Migraine medications can work faster, but they may also come with side effects. Correcting a vitamin B2 deficiency can take up to 3 months, so natural migraine prevention may take more time.

The throbbing pain associated with migraines is linked to a molecule that increases when cellular energy is low. Migraines are also significantly more common in women, which may be related to estrogen.

Increasing your water intake can sometimes make migraines worse by diluting electrolytes, especially sodium.

The best migraine prevention supplements that can help prevent migraines over time include:

• 400 mg of vitamin B2

• 75 mg of butterbur twice a day

• 400 mg of magnesium glycinate

Most people think lymphedema is trapped water, similar to edema, but it’s not that simple.

It’s a normal occurrence for protein and water to leak out of the blood vessels into the surrounding tissues. A healthy lymphatic system removes this excess fluid from the tissues and returns it to the bloodstream.

When the lymphatic system fails, protein can become trapped in the limbs. This trapped protein is what separates lymphedema from general leg swelling or edema. Lymphedema occurs when lymphatic drainage isn’t working properly, typically due to a blockage or inadequate pumping of the lymphatic system.

Lymphedema is often worse in one leg than the other, while edema involves more equal swelling on both sides. Diuretics aren’t typically effective for lymphedema because they remove water but not the trapped protein.

To address chronic leg swelling and lymphedema symptoms, it’s important to understand what’s interfering with the lymphatic system’s ability to pump and drain properly. Metabolic health is often linked to the severity of lymphedema.

Nighttime leg cramps are not caused by a problem with the muscle itself. They’re related to the nervous system.

Leg cramps at night are typically a direct result of a magnesium deficiency. Some people think magnesium isn’t improving their leg cramps, but they may simply be taking the wrong form. Magnesium glycinate is one of the best-absorbed forms of magnesium.

Magnesium may not stop your leg cramps if you’re also low in vitamin D. Magnesium and vitamin D work together, so the more magnesium you take, the more vitamin D you need, and vice versa.

If you have severe leg cramps, it may take longer to see results.

Just so you know, my full line of high-quality supplements is available on Amazon — search Dr. Berg Supplements.

Magnesium is a vital mineral that acts as a cofactor for more than 350 enzymes, making it essential for countless processes throughout the body.

Common magnesium deficiency symptoms include chronic fatigue, muscle cramps, twitching, insomnia, irregular heart rhythms, insulin resistance, elevated cortisol, and depression. Fatigue is one of the most common signs because magnesium is required to produce ATP, the body’s primary source of cellular energy. Magnesium also helps power the sodium-potassium pump.

Most people develop a magnesium deficiency by eating too many refined foods and not enough magnesium-rich foods. Most blood tests can miss a magnesium deficiency because 99% of magnesium is not in the blood.

Magnesium glycinate is one of the best-absorbed forms of magnesium. Correcting a magnesium deficiency may support better sleep, improved energy levels, and improved overall health.

TUDCA is an ancient remedy that has been used in Chinese medicine and is still prescribed for certain liver diseases in Japan today.

Bile is made by the liver and stored and concentrated in the gallbladder. It’s released when you eat to help break down fat and absorb nutrients from fat, including fat-soluble vitamins and phytonutrients. Bile is also antimicrobial, helps remove excess cholesterol, and helps increase GLP-1.

If you’re deficient in bile, try taking 200 mg of ox bile after a meal.

Unlike ox bile, which remains in the digestive system, TUDCA is water-soluble and can travel outside the digestive system and throughout the entire body. TUDCA supports healthy bile flow through the liver and bile ducts and helps increase insulin sensitivity.

TUDCA doesn’t break down fat, so ox bile is better suited for supporting fat digestion. Try taking 250 mg of TUDCA on an empty stomach twice per day.

When faced with gallbladder surgery, most people are told there’s no other option, and the side effects of gallbladder removal aren’t always properly explained.

The gallbladder is a small sac that stores and concentrates bile, releasing it when you eat to help break down fat. Bile is produced by the liver and is critical for proper nutrient absorption.

Gallbladder stones are one of the main reasons for a cholecystectomy. Gallstones typically form from the crystallization of excess cholesterol. Bile sludge is a precursor to gallstones.

Fat consumption triggers gallbladder contraction and bile release. Low-fat diets are often recommended, but they are not always the best approach for digestive health.

Excess estrogen can increase the risk of gallstones. Insulin resistance can also increase the risk and is often at the root of many gallbladder problems.

The full side effects that can occur after gallbladder removal surgery aren’t always discussed. After gallbladder removal, many people experience problems related to either excess bile or bile deficiency.

Choline is essential for helping prevent gallstones, yet many people don’t get enough. Eggs are one of the best sources of choline.
