Dr. Berg’s Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast Dr. Eric Berg

Today, I’m going to tell you the truth about vitamin D. The current RDA for vitamin D is 600 IU (international units), which is about 1/10 of a milligram. Vitamin D is a controversial topic, probably because it can help so many!



Heliotherapy, or sunbathing, was used in the early 1900s, before vaccines and antibiotics, to help with TB, asthma, osteoporosis, tooth decay, psoriasis, mood issues, diabetes, heart disease, and even cancer.



The government commissioned the University of Illinois Chicago to conduct a study on the toxicity of vitamin D. This study lasted nine years and involved hundreds of doctors, 773 patients, and 63 dogs. They used 200,000-1,000,000 IU of vitamin D, and no toxicity was found.



Dr. Bruce Hollis, a pioneer in vitamin D research, explains that many vitamin D researchers are not receptive to the wealth of data about its benefits.



Data shows that areas close to the equator have the lowest risk of MS, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and diabetes.



You will need more vitamin D if you have vitamin D resistance, are older, have darker skin, or weigh more.

In this podcast, we’re going to talk about some of the fast food industry’s secrets that can keep you wanting more but are detrimental to your health.



The average American consumes between 2 and 3 fast food meals per week, which adds up to 150 to 200 meals per year. Even if you order value meals or make choices from the dollar menu, most people spend around $1500 to $2000 per year on fast food.



The fast food industry uses all sorts of marketing tactics to keep you wanting more. Mcdonald’s uses yellow and red, which stimulate impulsivity, increase serotonin, and even encourage you to eat faster.



The fast food industry also targets children, hence the playgrounds and happy meals at fast food restaurants. They use upselling techniques by offering fries or a combo, which can increase profits by more than 22%. Prices containing the number 9 can increase the likelihood of making a purchase!



McDonald’s is one of the largest beef buyers in the U.S. They use low-quality factory-farmed beef fattened with grains and treated with antibiotics.



Fast food meals also contain poor-quality ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, corn oil, soy oil, corn flour, corn starch, and fillers like maltodextrin. These ingredients are highly processed and highly inflammatory. Although fast food may seem cheaper and more convenient in the short term, it can cause massive health consequences in the long term.

Today, I’m going to tell you about 7 foods to avoid, along with some healthy alternatives.



1. Liquid sugar

Soda, juice, and high-sugar beverages deplete your body's vitamin and mineral reserves and contribute to insulin resistance. If you like soda, try Zevia zero-sugar soda instead!



2. Processed cheese

Pasteurized cheese products can’t be called cheese if they contain less than 51% cheese. Processed cheeses typically contain skim milk, canola oil, milk protein concentrate, modified food starch, whey protein, maltodextrin, preservatives, and salt. Choose real cheese instead!



3. Protein bars

Many protein bars are worse than candy bars! They’re often made with soy protein isolates and casein, and can contain 30 to 47 grams of sugar per bar! This number doesn’t include the starches, which are also sugar.



Protein bars are usually sweetened with highly processed sweeteners such as rice syrup, corn syrup, and tapioca syrup. Some are sweetened with sucralose, an artificial sweetener made from a chlorine compound.



Try boiled eggs, cheese, and meat jerky for quick protein.



4. Seed oil mayonnaise

Almost every mayo available lists soy oil as its first ingredient. Soy oil is a seed oil that’s highly processed using solvents like hexane. It’s high in omega-6s, which can be highly inflammatory. Look for mayo that is made with avocado oil and zero seed oils. Chosen Foods mayo and Primal Kitchen mayo are much better options.



5. Sweetened, flavored yogurt

Seventy percent of the yogurt people buy is sweetened, flavored yogurt. This yogurt contains more sugar per ounce than ice cream! It also contains artificial colorings and flavorings.



Opt for plain whole-fat grass-fed yogurt from A2 protein cows. For an even better option, try whole-fat kefir from grass-fed cows, sheep, or goats.



6. Soy protein

Soy protein is a cheap, heavily processed protein found in many foods. It negatively affects your gut and liver. Opt for whole protein sources such as meat, eggs, fish, and seafood.



7. Modified starches

Starches are chains of sugars, often used as fillers. Starches cause a more significant spike in blood sugar than sugar! Consume natural starch from butternut squash, beets, plantains, and purple potatoes.

Today, I’m going to tell you the truth about sugar and the effects of sugar.



Doctors and large agencies like the Sugar Association have recently denied that sugar consumption could be dangerous for your health or that it could have any implications for your cardiovascular system. A similar tactic has been used by tobacco companies before they admitted that cigarettes were deadly.



The average person consumes 23 teaspoons of sugar daily, but could they also be consuming hidden sugars?



Hidden sugars are found in products that claim to contain zero sugars. Many ultra-processed foods, such as chips, Cheez-Its, and Goldfish, contain no sugar but are full of starches. Starches have a higher glycemic index than sugar, so they can cause a more significant blood sugar spike.



Heavily processed starches are not like the starch you’d find in a potato or rice. Starches like maltodextrin, modified food starch, or modified corn starch can harm your blood sugar and health. If you include starch in a person’s daily sugar consumption, the average person consumes around 75 teaspoons of sugar each day!



High-sugar diets cause you to deplete your nutrient stores until they are gone. Sugar also causes oxidative damage without the antioxidants to protect you, ultimately leading to chronic conditions, including diabetes, Alzheimer’s, inflammation, and skin problems.



Processed foods are often fortified because they are so devoid of nutrients. Synthetic vitamins sprayed onto processed foods are not an alternative to whole foods!



Stop eating sugar and eliminate starches from your diet. This can reverse the cycle of disease, lower blood sugar, and reverse a fatty liver. Your body will also be able to burn its own fat through ketosis. Ketones are a much better fuel for the heart than glucose.

Let's talk about how to fix your sleep. The majority of the population uses their phones before bed. Cell phones and other mobile devices expose you to blue light, which powerfully suppresses melatonin, the hormone that helps you sleep.



If your melatonin is too low, you’ll have difficulty getting to sleep. Just a minute and a half of blue light exposure before bed can reduce melatonin. Blue light blockers or blue light glasses can help reduce blue light exposure.



EMF stands for electromagnetic fields. It is invisible radiation that affects the whole body. It damages communication signals within the cells and may increase the risk of cancer.



Trifield measures electromagnetic fields and radio frequencies. It can be helpful to use this device to measure in the areas where you spend a lot of time.



EMF exposure can affect your sleep quality and how deep you sleep. This will affect how you feel the next day.



Alcohol, caffeine, and nicotine interfere with melatonin. Stress before bed and temperatures above 75 degrees Fahrenheit can also affect sleep quality.



Poor sleep can affect your energy level, productivity, cognitive function, focus, concentration, and creativity. Surprisingly, poor sleep can cause blood sugar problems and increase your risk for type 2 diabetes, dementia, and depression.



If you want to improve sleep quality, try using blue light blockers that work and talk on speakerphone.

Today, I’m going to share some important information about vitamin D. The VITAL study, which involved 26,000 people, concluded that vitamin D supplementation is essentially worthless. The study found that vitamin D supplementation did not reduce the risk of cancer, major cardiovascular events, stroke, or cardiovascular death.



In this study, they used the same trial protocols used in drug trials. One group received vitamin D, and the other received a placebo. We naturally have vitamin D in our systems from our diet and the sun, but no baseline vitamin D was determined in this study. Everyone in the study, including the placebo group, was permitted to take up to 800 IU of vitamin D per day.



Furthermore, the VITAL study measured vitamin D in the blood, which is the inactive form. This is the reservoir of vitamin D that supports the skeletal system and calcium regulation, but this was not tested for.



Vitamin D is involved in another system that supports the immune system, prevents cancer, is anti-inflammatory, prevents diabetes, and prevents dementia. The active form of vitamin D found in the cells is not measurable in the blood.



The VITAL study claimed to give the study group a high dose of vitamin D, but they only used 2,000 IU!



Dr. Hollis mentions a Townsend letter that references 6 papers that show the promising benefits of vitamin D:

• Decreases autoimmune disease by 22%

• Decreases the incidence of advanced cancer

• The more vitamin D in your blood, the lower the risk of cancer

• Reduces autism

• Reduces asthma

• Decreases adverse outcomes in pregnancy



Although the VITAL study essentially deemed vitamin D as worthless, there’s plenty of research showing that vitamin D can reduce breast cancer, tooth decay, depression, skin disorders, prostate cancer, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and colon cancer.



Research has also shown the surprising benefits of sunlight—the best source of vitamin D. Sun exposure can significantly reduce your risk of breast cancer, decrease blood pressure, and increase serotonin by up to 80%.
