Today we're going to talk about natural remedies for AIDS and HIV. I'm reading a book called "What really causes AIDS," by professor Harold D. Foster—it's fascinating because it involves nutrition. When you have HIV, over time, if the immune system is weak, it can shift to AIDS. AIDS is a condition where you don't really have an immune system anymore. This condition targets a key player in your immune system called the T helper cell. Without the T helper cells, your immune system can't work how it needs to. Without these cells, you can also develop serious secondary problems like tumors or cancer. Glutathione is the key antioxidant for all your cells, and it's intimately involved with your immune system. However, HIV depletes the precursors to make glutathione. If you were to build up these precursors, and therefore, your glutathione, you could potentially prevent the transition of HIV to AIDS. Other viruses use this mechanism, including hepatitis C, hepatitis B, and coxsackie. The precursors for glutathione are:  • Selenium  • Cysteine • Glutamine • Tryptophan A potential natural protocol for HIV and AIDS:  • Selenium (400 mcg)  • Cysteine • Glutamine • Tryptophan  • NAC Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 58, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

episode STOP Weighing Yourself (The Scale is Rigged) artwork

STOP Weighing Yourself (The Scale is Rigged)

Don’t let scale obsession prevent you from getting healthy and losing weight. Non-scale victories often occur before fat loss. Stop weighing yourself constantly and avoid other common weight-loss mistakes that could be hindering your success. Find out why you might want to ditch the scale in this episode! Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] chapters: 0:00 Introduction: 11 reasons to stop weighing yourself 1:07 Why you shouldn’t weigh yourself 2:58 Hormones and weight loss 8:12 Sleep and weight loss 11:22 Healthy weight-loss tips 16:36 The best weight-loss advice Scale obsession is not helpful for weight loss. The rise in cortisol from scale anxiety alone is enough to stifle your progress! Here are 11 reasons why you shouldn’t weigh yourself: 1. Water weight Some people can lose up to 11 pounds of water weight in just 2 days! Initial water weight loss can cause unrealistic expectations. Most people only lose 1 to 2 pounds per week. 2. Salt Salty foods can cause you to retain fluid, especially if you’re consuming them with sugar. 3. Hormones A woman’s menstrual cycle can often cause weight-loss fluctuations of around 3 to 7 pounds. A rise in cortisol can also prevent weight loss. 4. Location of fat The worst type of fat is visceral fat, which accumulates around the organs. If you don’t see weight loss right away, you could be losing some of the more dangerous types of fat first. 5. Muscle loss or gain Losing muscle isn’t healthy! Your weight may be decreasing, but it could also be accompanied by serious side effects. Similarly, muscle weighs more than fat, so you won’t see weight loss if you’re building muscle. 6. Myxedema This type of fat is often found in people with hypothyroidism and is difficult to eliminate with diet and exercise alone. 7. Poor sleep One week of poor sleep can increase insulin resistance! Poor sleep leads to snacking, increased visceral fat, lower testosterone levels, and higher cortisol and stress levels. 8. Ozempic People lose weight with Ozempic, but typically regain it when they discontinue use. Around 20% to 40% of this weight loss is attributed to muscle loss. 9. Microdamage from exercise Overtraining breaks down your muscles. Edema and swelling can cause your weight to increase after exercise. 10. Medication Medications such as calcium channel blockers can cause weight gain. 11. Constipation Fiber intake and constipation can affect the number on the scale. Stop weighing yourself and focus on these healthy weight-loss tips instead: 1. Waist-to-height ratio 2. Fasting insulin 3. Appetite decreases 4. Tiny amounts of carbs can block fat burning 5. Fix insulin resistance Insulin resistance is the root cause of many chronic diseases. Fixing it is the key to getting healthy and losing weight.

The 13 Major Keto Mistakes: DON'T MAKE THEM!

If you’re not losing weight on keto, or you’re stuck on a keto plateau, this is for you. Make sure you’re not making these common keto diet mistakes... they could be the reason why keto isn’t working! Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] Chapters: 00:00 Introduction: The keto diet is not working for me! 0:41 Why I’m not losing weight on keto 5:35 Gallbladder, liver health, and the keto diet 10:03 Vitamin D and keto weight loss problems 13:50 Keto diet facts and fiction In this video, we’ll take a look at why some people struggle with weight loss on the keto diet or experience a keto weight loss plateau. To do the keto diet correctly, you must reduce your carb intake to 50 grams or less per day, especially if you’re working towards a goal such as weight loss, reducing chronic illness, increasing energy, or improving your health. Avoid these 13 common keto diet mistakes! 1. Don’t do dirty keto, a low-carb diet that doesn’t eliminate unhealthy ingredients. 2. Poor sleep increases blood sugar values to those of a prediabetic. It also increases cortisol levels, inhibits the release of growth hormone, and reduces fat burning. 3. Stress raises cortisol levels, which blocks the benefits of keto. 4. Overtraining can stifle weight loss! 5. Gallbladder and liver health are vital for fat breakdown and absorption, and critical for proper thyroid function. You won’t lose weight on keto until you address these issues first. 6. Your thyroid is responsible for metabolism and energy. Focus on iodine, selenium, and zinc intake for a healthy thyroid. 7. Weight loss on keto starts with a healthy gut. Try L. reuteri yogurt to restore gut health and lose weight. 8. Not getting enough sun is one of the most common keto weight loss problems. Vitamin D protects you from insulin resistance, and sunlight increases melatonin and serotonin. 9. The more atrophy you have, the less keto will work for weight loss. 10. Make sure you have realistic expectations and an accurate definition of normal. After the initial water weight loss when first starting keto, weight loss will vary from person to person. 11. Pair the keto diet with intermittent fasting. Eliminate snacking and only eat when you’re hungry. 12. Avoid cheat day! 13. Lower your dietary fat intake if you’re struggling to lose weight on keto. You may have heard rumors that the keto diet is dangerous, but this simply isn’t true and is often based on poor research. Some foods labeled as “zero sugar” still contain carbs. Check labels and make sure your keto weight loss plateau isn’t caused by hidden sugar consumption!

Red Flags of a Serious Nutrient Deficiency

Iodine is vital for the health of your thyroid, which impacts almost every part of your body. Unfortunately, iodine deficiency has become increasingly common due to depleted soils and chemicals in the water supply. Find out how to spot the early signs of iodine deficiency in this video. Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: Iodine deficiency causes 1:09 Outer eyebrow thinning 1:22 Hair loss 1:36 Hoarseness 1:51 Enlarged tongue 2:05 Unexplained weight gain 2:30 High estrogen 3:30 Lowered IQ 6:00 Iodine function 6:34 Selenium and iodine 6:56 High iodine foods LINKS TO WATER FILTERS: https://www.amazon.com/Travel-Berkey-...https://www.amazon.com/ZeroWater-7-Cu...https://clearlyfiltered.com/products/... Iodine deficiency is becoming incredibly common because most people aren’t getting enough in their food, and chemicals like fluoride and chlorine in the water supply can deplete it. Vegans are at increased risk for iodine deficiency because they aren’t consuming iodine foods such as shellfish, dairy, eggs, and other seafood. Here are 7 strange iodine deficiency signs to look out for. 1. Outer eyebrow thinning If the outer third of your eyebrow is thinning, you could have an iodine deficiency. 2. Hair loss Iodine is vital in ensuring that you have adequate thyroid hormones to support your hair. 3. Hoarseness This may feel like a lump in your throat due to an enlarged thyroid. 4. Enlarged tongue Indentations on the outside of the tongue signify an enlarged tongue. 5. Unexplained weight gain When your thyroid doesn’t have enough iodine, it can slow your metabolism, leading to weight gain. 6. Increased estrogen Heavy periods, excessive cramping, headaches, and weight gain in the hips all signify increased estrogen. Testosterone may also decrease in both men and women if the thyroid isn’t functioning properly. 7. Lowered IQ Thyroid function affects many parts of the brain, including the portion responsible for making decisions, problem-solving, attention, focus, creativity, and memory. Iodine is vital for properly functioning thyroid hormones, which affect every part of the body. Thyroid hormones affect the ovaries and the testicles, regulate estrogen dominance, and help mood and cognitive function. Hypothyroidism is one of the most common health problems worldwide! Selenium is also essential for the thyroid, especially for conditions like Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism. Rather than waiting for iodine deficiency symptoms, add the following iodine-rich foods to your diet to help prevent a problem: •Sea kelp/seaweed •Shellfish •Fish from the ocean •Eggs •Dairy Get a high-quality water filter to eliminate chlorine and fluoride in your drinking water!

The Best Fix for Dry and Wrinkled Skin

Find out about the best remedy for dry, wrinkled hands that can visibly improve your skin naturally. Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] Just so you know, my full line of high-quality supplements is available on Amazon — search Dr. Berg Supplements. 0:00 Introduction: The best remedy for dry, wrinkled hands 0:12 The problem with most moisturizers 0:42 Natural remedies for dry skin 0:53 The best moisturizer for dry skin 4:15 Hyaluronic acid dosage for dry skin In this video, I’m going to share the #1 remedy for dry hands and dry skin. Most moisturizers contain alcohol, which dries and dehydrates your skin. Your moisturizer also gets absorbed into your skin, then into your bloodstream and liver. There are many natural dry skin remedies that can help, such as vitamin E, coconut oil, and tallow, but the best remedy for dry skin is hyaluronic acid. Many of your cells make hyaluronic acid, which is also found in your skin and joints. Hyaluronic acid holds 1000 times its weight in water and can keep your skin looking youthful. It’s intimately involved in wound repair and can repair skin after a sunburn. As we age, our hyaluronic acid decreases. There are also health conditions like progeria that cause you to lose hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid can be injected, used topically, or taken orally. When taken orally, 2.5% of hyaluronic acid is absorbed, which can be enough to replace what you lose as you age. To get rid of dry, wrinkled hands and skin, take 200 mg of hyaluronic acid daily. You can also use it topically. Look for hyaluronic acid without alcohol, wet your hands, and apply a couple of drops. Rub your hands together to apply. You can also do this to your face. Also, focus on internal health to get rid of dry skin. Try Healthy Keto® to keep your skin looking healthy.
