    Did you know that the majority of hypothyroid conditions are not really a thyroid problem? 90% of all hypothyroid conditions are Hashimoto's. This is an autoimmune condition. With this autoimmune condition, the thyroid has antibodies that attack itself. This is immune dysfunction, not necessarily a thyroid problem. But, it does affect the thyroid.

     This could be why many people with this condition never see any change—because they're treating the wrong problem. If you look up hypothyroidism, you will see that the cause is low thyroid hormones. But what's causing the low thyroid hormones? 

    If you have hypothyroidism that's not involved with Hashimoto's, it could be secondary to something else. 80% of the conversion of T4 to T3 happens through the liver. So, if there's something going on with the liver or the gallbladder, it could mean that you're just not getting the conversion of T4 to T3.

    You could also have a situation where there is too much estrogen in the body. In this case, the estrogen can block the thyroid. 

    Some other data talks about consuming too many cruciferous vegetables being behind a thyroid problem. But, the studies on this are very sparse. You would also have to consume a tremendous amount of cruciferous vegetables to deplete enough iodine to cause a weakness in the thyroid. There is no data that says consuming cruciferous vegetables will kill the thyroid. 

    If you're worried about cruciferous vegetables causing a thyroid problem, you could steam them or ferment them. You could also have some sea kelp to help replace the iodine that could potentially be depleted by cruciferous vegetables. But, cruciferous vegetables can help regulate estrogen, and really, cruciferous vegetables benefit the entire body.

  • Sharp Stomach Pain That Comes and Goes

    Talk to a Dr. Berg Keto Consultant today and get the help you need on your journey (free consultation).

    Today, we’re going to talk about why you might have sharp stomach pain that comes and goes. 

    What causes stomach pain that comes and goes?

    1. SIBO 

    The worst thing to consume if you have SIBO is vegetables. If you have SIBO, try taking betaine hydrochloride.

    2. Inflammation/Ulcer 

    This could be caused by damage from something you’re eating or a food allergy. Try a food allergy test to identify the problem. For an ulcer, taking chlorophyll may help. 

    3. Gallbladder/Bile ducts 

    Eating the wrong types of foods, or high levels of certain hormones can cause a stone. This can create irritation. 

     4. Pancreas/Duct 

    Carbs can cause your pancreas to work too hard. If it’s working too hard, the stimulation can interfere with the normal flow of digestive juices, which can cause a lot of problems. 

    5. Gluten  

    For some people, this can be poisonous and cause a lot of damage to their system.

    6. Fortification (iron) 

    Enriched flour products contain iron. Excessive amounts of iron can be very toxic and cause a lot of damage. 

    7. Vegetable oil 

    Vegetable oils are highly inflammatory to the digestive system. 

    8. GMO grains 

    GMO grains are sprayed with glyphosate, which can irritate your digestive system.

     9. Low stomach acid 

    If you don’t have enough acid in your stomach, it will cause food to go through undigested—causing problems. Try consuming apple cider vinegar and betaine hydrochloride.

    10. Frequent eating 

    Intermittent fasting allows the gut to heal and rest. 

    Other than those things, try consuming moderate amounts of protein and keep your carbs low. Also, consume plenty of vegetables except if you have SIBO.

  • How Intermittent Fasting Affects Your Heart (Cardiovascular System)

    In this podcast, we’re going to talk about intermittent fasting and how fasting affects the heart. 

    It all starts with lowering insulin. When you fast, you lower insulin. Insulin controls what type of fuel your body is going to run on. 

    Fatty acids from fat cells are the main source of fuel to the heart. Your heart actually prefers a type of ketone called acetoacetate. 


    Fasting switches your body from glucose to ketones. But, when you eat, you go from ketosis to glucose. Ketones also have the ability to feed the heart if the heart is in a damaged state. So, if you have any type of cardiovascular disease, you may benefit from intermittent fasting and providing your body with ketones through a low-carb diet. 


    More benefits of intermittent fasting for the heart:

     • Improvement with atherosclerosis 

     • Less stiffness in the arteries 

     • Lower blood pressure 

     • Improved insulin resistance which will improve your ability to absorb electrolytes

  • Can't Live Without Bread...Not Doing Keto

    If you feel like you can't live without carbs, this podcast is for you. 


    Can't live without bread? Did you know this:

     • The average American consumes 53 pounds (26 kg) of bread per year. 

     • The glycemic index of bread is 71 - 81. 

     • Low-fat bread has too many carbs that turn into fat and then spikes insulin, which blocks the ability to burn the fat. 

     • A lot of white bread has bleach (chlorine dioxide) in it, which may lead to type 1 diabetes.

     • Transglutaminase is an enzyme that can worsen the sensitivity to gluten. 

     • When you consume whole grains, you're getting bran, which is loaded with phytic acid that blocks zinc. 

     • The more bread you consume, the more you're deleted of B-vitamins, vitamin E, and zinc. Vitamin B1 and vitamin E are essential for the heart. 


    Keto-friendly alternatives to bread:

    1. Oopsie bread (cloud bread)

    2. You can make bread out of almond flour, cauliflower, chia seed, flaxseed, coconut flour, and zucchini 

    3. My keto-friendly bread recipe


    If you're craving bread, you're usually deficient in vitamin B1. Taking nutritional yeast can help reduce these cravings. Healthy keto and intermittent fasting can also help make your hunger go down, making it easier to avoid bread.

    Is vaping actually better than smoking? In this podcast, we’re going to talk about the harmful effects of vaping. 


    480,000 people die each year from an issue related to smoking. How many years did it take to recognize that smoking kills people? It took 50 years. Vaping has only been around since 2003, and there are no long-term studies on it. 


    With vaping, you’re actually inhaling an aerosol, which is a certain gas. It’s a vaporized mist of propylene glycol and glycerin. Some of the pods that are used for vaping actually contain more nicotine than a pack of cigarettes. If a person starts to experiment with nicotine before the age of 20, the risk of addiction (to more than just smoking) goes way up. You’re also vaping from a device that has the capacity to explode. 


    With flavored vaping, the chemicals are cytotoxic to your lungs. There are heavy metals, and it has the ability to impair DNA. It can also cause oxidation to the inside lining of your arteries.

  • Plantar Fasciitis and Heel Spurs: The Biggest Mistake

    Today we’re going to talk about one of the biggest mistakes people make when they have plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. I’m also going to show you an effective plantar fasciitis stretch that may help with this condition. 

    What is plantar fasciitis?

    The plantar fascia is a connective tissue sheath right underneath the foot. A lot of times, it can become inflamed, and you’ll feel pain mainly in the heel area, but sometimes in the middle of the foot. You could have micro-trauma going on, or you could also have a build-up of uric acid crystals. You could even have oxalate crystals that are depositing in your foot from certain things that you’re eating.

    Some people think that heel spurs are what’s causing their foot pain. But, this is not what’s actually causing the heel pain. There are a lot of people with spurs who don’t have pain, and people with pain that don’t have heel spurs. 

    One of the biggest mistakes people make with plantar fasciitis is stretching the calf or foot. Stretching this soft tissue when you have micro-tearing can aggravate the tears. The last thing you want to do is stretch something that is torn or irritated. 

    Oxalates come from certain foods. They can form kidney stones and can deposit in your joints, causing foot pain. 

    Avoid these high oxalate foods:

     • Spinach 

     • Almonds 

     • Parsley 

     • Chocolate 

     • Peanuts 

     • Kiwi 

    You could also try consuming cheese or calcium with the above foods because the calcium will bind with the oxalates and block some of the absorption.

    In this podcast, I’m going to share with you the one vitamin that helps you lose weight.

    The vitamin that can help support weight loss is vitamin D.

     • Diabetes 

     • Insulin resistance 

     • Stress

     • High blood pressure 

     • Autoimmune conditions 

     • Inflammation 


    The common thread in all of the above conditions is insulin resistance. High insulin is behind weight problems. 


    Vitamin D benefits:

     • Lowers stress

     • Lowers insulin 

     • Lowers inflammation 

     • Lowers estrogen 

     • Increases good bacteria 

     • Decreases metabolic syndrome

    There are cases where people take vitamin D and don’t see results. So what do you do when vitamin D doesn’t work? 


    Why vitamin D isn’t working:

    1. You have damage in your digestive system

    If your gut isn’t allowing you to absorb vitamin D because of damage, what do you do?


     • Take gut-friendly vitamin D such as sublingual, topical, and injected versions

     • Get vitamin D from the sun


    2. A problem with the vitamin D receptor 

    If you have a problem with this receptor, vitamin D won’t connect 100%. 30% of the population has a problem with the vitamin D receptor. 40% of obese people have a problem with the vitamin D receptor. There is a simple test you can take to see if you have this problem. 


    What do you do in this situation?

     • Take more vitamin D (40,000-60,000 IUs)

     • For every 10,000 IUs of vitamin D, take 100 micrograms of vitamin K2


    A few more remedies to enhance vitamin D absorption:

     • Omega-3

     • Zinc 

     • Boron

     • Magnesium 

     • Intense exercise

    In this podcast, I’m back to talk about hydrogen peroxide and hydrogen peroxide hacks. 


    You can use the hydrogen peroxide you may have in your medicine cabinet, which is probably about 3%. Or, you may have a food-grade hydrogen peroxide that can also be used.


    How hydrogen peroxide works:

    Your white blood cells make hydrogen peroxide to kill off bacteria, funguses, viruses, parasites, and candida. 


    What hydrogen peroxide does:

    Hydrogen peroxide oxidizes the layer of microbes and destroys the cell wall of invading microbes. 


    A few hydrogen peroxide uses:

     • To clean cuts

     • Gargle with hydrogen peroxide 


    Hydrogen peroxide mouthwash:

     • 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide (15g)

     • 4 tablespoons of water (60g) 


    Swish the mixture in your mouth for 30 seconds. Do not swallow.


    Uses of hydrogen peroxide mouthwash:

     • Gargle with it if you have a sore throat

     • Swish it in your mouth to kill off and cleanse the microbes in your mouth


    A few more hydrogen peroxide hacks:

     • Remove stains on your clothes

     • Clean your vegetables (Mix 1/2 cup of hydrogen peroxide with 2 cups of water, let your vegetables soak in the mixture for a few minutes, rinse)
