Dr Beg my name is Beatus Kaboja .I live in Tanzania Africa. I have been followingg you since July this year. In August 20th i started Keto when i was 242 pound within 3 months i lost 44pounds. My weight has been going down so well and estonishingly. I strugled on my weight for over 20 years. I thank you so much for your guidance on Keto.
Dr Berg, if ever the Chinese proverb, "doctors should be paid whilst people are healthy" applied to a single person, it applies to YOU. I've decided to order your products as a way to repay all you do... thank you.
I make hot chocolate with a spoonful of pumpkin butter, coconut butter, cacao powder, a bit of raw honey. So amazing keeps me full , reduces all cravings and gives me stable energy. Healthy fats are everything! Also pumpkin seed butter is amazing 😻
Pumpkin seeds get rid of head aches for me better than any medicine, and I’ve had an aneurism and now got Metal in my head so I’m very sensitive to inflammation. Pumpkin seeds and the cultured drink Kafir changed my life, also cutting out junk food.
I make a kale salad with organic kale, brussel sprouts and broccoli. I put pumpkin seeds on my salad with a little bit of unsweet cranberries. Top it with avocado oil and balsamic vinegar! YUMMMMMMM!!
My late morning regimen ( I do time restricted eating ) is a small handfull of Pumpkin seeds in my oatmeal or cereal along with walnuts,3 TB's of Flax seed,fruit and plant based vanilla or chocolate protein powder.Delicious.I use EVL plant protein powder.Low carb,with probiotics..
I love Dr Berg's informative presentations, always information dense and succinct. He is a one man antidote to this age of chronic lifestyle based disease.
Even though Dr. Berg says that a keto diet is OK remember he stresses to eat lots and lots of vegetables Which is very very important! That’s the main thing that Keto and Vegans agree on.
I add them to a big homemade trail mix jar, almonds, walnuts, peanuts (all unsalted) cranberries, raisins, sunflower seeds. They add a bright green color to break up the rainbow.
Dried berries can be a bit high in sugar because they lack the water content in fresh berries. Also, you usually end up eating more of the dried berries because you miss all that water content which fills you up more quickly.
Hiya Doc. Been a relatively newer subbed fan. Alot of your videos have reinforced what I have actually been doing while some have really added to my own knowledge. Lost 270 lbs in about a year and a half naturally using a modified ketogenic diet.. just had my first skin removal and chest reconstruction surgery in August. Doing my legs in December.. thanks for putting your info out there. Jim, Austin, TX
wow you must feel like a different person, new attitude about life etc. Congrats! Keep it up!! Dr. Berg doesn't have time to respond to videos usually.
How did the Google algorithm know I am sitting here eating a salad with roasted pumpkin and pinenut seeds (one tablespoon each) sprinkled on my salad! ; )
a portion size suggestion would have been nice.. but even better, when updating the blurb, not removing the link mentioned in this video would have been nicer
Doc Eric, Another GREAT video. You mentioned Manganese in the Pumpkin Seeds. On our Organic Farm, we also grow pumpkins, but we also grow Pili Nuts. They are loaded with Manganese and many other fantastic nutrients. Of course we also have lots of Coconuts for making Organic Coconut Oil - as well as the Organic Coconut Water and Organic Coconut Vinegar. You mentioned Chocolate. We Grow our own Organic Cacao! OMG, it tastes so much better than anything you can buy commercially because we harvest the cacao when it's at the peak of ripeness. We process it naturally and consume it as a treat, or in hot water. Much better than coffee in my personal opinion! Continued Successes! Greg P 👨🌾🏝
YES!!! I love pumpkin seed... However, they are packed with Phytic Acid, which needs to be removed... I soak my pumpkin seeds in filtered water, overnight and rinse them, then dehydrate them in the oven (on Low)... I also sprinkle Himalayan Salt on them... Yummy :-)
I dont know if Dr berg reply to comments or not but I'd like to. My question are that is there a differences in minerals between pumpkin seeds or squash seeds?? What i know is that they have different size and peel type
Check out this article: www.drberg.com/blog/pumpkin-seeds-nutrient-dense-and-with-healthy-fats?queryID=c05ac261383e2ca29c6335638cc6d689&objectID=blog_1252
Dr. Berg, I heard that that pumpkins are loaded with Lectins. Is that true? How many tea spoons of pumpkin seeds should we consume daily? Also is it necessary to saod them in water so that anti nutrients are gone?
I love you Dr. Berg I write this after and still watching your videos in 2021. God Bless You Sir. Thank You...your God Sent...No more Diabeties. I 💜 you
Do you think Pumpkin seed oil supplements are better or worse than raw pumpkin seeds? I take both. I eat about 2 oz. of raw seeds every day and I take about 4000 mg of pumpkin seed oil throughout my day. Good? or Bad? I really like your videos. Very well done and informative. I appreciate them very much. Thank you.
I do not know the answer but I would guess the whole food (the seed) would be better than oil on its own. My rational being that eating a fruit is much healthier than having juice, even if it is just pure fruit juice, because the juice is lacking in the fibre that the whole fruit has. I would guess the oil is good but perhaps incomplete. I just started growing my own heirloom hull-less pumpkins and the seeds are delicious so I found an easy way to add them to my diet without having to worry about all the shells.
@@musicman9901intersting. So the seeds have no hull when you harvest them from the raw pumpkin! That makes things much easier 😁. Can you tell me where you get them and the type? Thanks! Terry
@@ForestToFarm Yes, exactly, the seeds come out of the pumpkin green because there is no hull. I got mine from Baker Creek/Rare Seeds in the US. I bought the heirloom variety "Kakai" though they also have another type called "lady Godiva" that I believe is also hull-less (you can find them in the "winter squash" category since pumpkin and winter squash are pretty much interchangeable). I love growing heirlooms because its so interesting to find the differences in flavor and growing characteristics such as these pumpkins without the hull, plus its fun playing a important part in preserving old or rare genetic lines. My partner tells me the Kakai fruit itself tastes very good baked too, so between that and the ease of using the seeds its pretty much a permanent member of my garden every year. Hope this helps!
I am surprised that he does not mention that the ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 is 12 to 1... in a society where omega 6 is TOO present, we must constantly think about compensating for the missing omega 3 .
Dr Berg, you’ve mentioned in previous videos that HGH is high when insulin is low. You’ve also mentioned that fat does not illicit an insulin response. So if I’m fasting, and then I consume only fat, will my HGH levels stay elevated since I did not create an insulin response? Or does the HGH only stay elevated while completely fasted? Thank you.

💯
U mean mr.Berg, or pumpkins?

Wow you said it so simply such a big shift which is needed around the world healthcare system.
I sometimes buy supplements as support! He deserves more than that!
Yes me too!
What about pumpkin loaf bread at Starbucks? I like it heated with a slab of melted butter on top! Mmmmm.

Is it zero sugar?

Sounds delicious
Ya Sounds VG, Thanks✔️.
I just tried your hot chocolate recipe and it's delicious! Thank you for mentioning it! ❤
nah you gotta share the recipe

Love pumpkin seeds sprinkled on top of my salads, or roasted with macadamia nuts and pecans!
I usually grind all the seeds like flax,sesame,pumpkin, sunflower and sprinkle it on my smoothies or salad...it tastes amazing
Add chia seeds
Pumpkin seeds, a cornerstone food of the keto diet, imo. Personally, I have an ounce at lunch and dinner.
So it means I could consume pumpkin seed while doing keto diet?
do u just buy pumpkin seeds from vegetable salers and eat or whats method please guide.
I make a kale salad with organic kale, brussel sprouts and broccoli. I put pumpkin seeds on my salad with a little bit of unsweet cranberries. Top it with avocado oil and balsamic vinegar! YUMMMMMMM!!
I eat them everyday, I love them. Maybe some days I’ll take a break from eating them

Can you do a video on moringa powder please
Lone Wolf
I add a couple of teaspoons to my protein shake, got loads of good stuff in.
Video would be great!
@@pinepointsmillionaire5814 your protein powder has BCAA which is not a good thing n can age u
I love Dr Berg's informative presentations, always information dense and succinct. He is a one man antidote to this age of chronic lifestyle based disease.
Pumpkin seeds are really good. Been taking for a week and I feel great.
Great. Thanks for sharing your experience.
I gently roast pumpkin seeds in olive oil and australian sea salt. A great snack by itself or I love them in salads.
That sounds yummy!
Nora M where do you buyAustralian sea salt from? Thanks
Trader Joe's, Costco, Sprouts, Natural Grocer, Whole Foods, even TJMaxx has it.
Even though Dr. Berg says that a keto diet is OK remember he stresses to eat lots and lots of vegetables Which is very very important! That’s the main thing that Keto and Vegans agree on.
I eat mostly meat a small amount of veggies once in a while and I have not been sick in decades, meat is better than veggies.
Vegans are what's wrong with humans.... 😂
@@todallard8791 Everyone is different. There is no single cookie-cutter diet that works for everyone...although Paleo is usually a best place to start
Yeah kids; make sure you get your daily recommended intake of oxalates and essential carbohydrates!
Vegetables strip away all of the nutrients that meat provides. Spinach is the only vegetable fit for human consumption.
I add them to a big homemade trail mix jar, almonds, walnuts, peanuts (all unsalted) cranberries, raisins, sunflower seeds. They add a bright green color to break up the rainbow.
I mix my raw pumpkin seeds with dried berries and eat by the handful. It's my go-to daily snack.
Dried berries can be a bit high in sugar because they lack the water content in fresh berries. Also, you usually end up eating more of the dried berries because you miss all that water content which fills you up more quickly.

Wonderful thank you Eric
You're welcome!
Ive been blending them up as a milk substitute for my coffee. About 1 cup of spring water to 1/2 a cup pumpkin seeds.
Oh can't wait for recipe!!
Good one! Dr. BERG.

How long and temp do u dehydrate them
@@andrewcahilly6264 I dry them until they are "Dry". Does that make sense to you?
Yes
You are a Wonderful Doctor.May Holy GOD Bless You.
Hi Dr. Berg, in another vedio you said it contains lectin so much to consume
Please do a vid on the health benefits of Cayenne Pepper
Chef John says add more of it. So I add more.
i have an extensive one on my channel
Check out Barbara Oneil
@@emh8861 Check out Bella Sky
What about the lectins... The more I delve into all this the more conflicting information I discover...
Don't worry about lectins if you pressure-cook your legumes. Pumpkin seeds are not eaten in enough quantity to worry about lectins.
I love pumpkin seeds. Akatoa in Ghana. We use it for our stews. Very good stuff.
Wow i didnt know Akatoa was pumpkin seed loved it when my mum used it to cook growing up in Ghana...
I eat them on my salad.
Me too.
With or without shell ?
Wow .. thanks for telling all of us . If you have not revealed we all are surely going in some deficiency…😱
Yes and I use them on cereal too.
Thank u Dr
I like a product made by Go Raw. It's sprouted organic pumpkin seeds with sea salt.
Dr. which is better raw or roasted
That’s good to know
Dr. Berg how about Pumpkin Seeds oil??
I dont know if Dr berg reply to comments or not but I'd like to. My question are that is there a differences in minerals between pumpkin seeds or squash seeds?? What i know is that they have different size and peel type
Not to forget, magnesium citrate, a gentle laxative.
thank you for informative video, should we soak in water for overnight for mineral efficiency
Sure
@@Drberg thank you
I think I'm in love!
How much to eat.
Can you also tell something about pumpkin seeds oil?
❤❤❤❤❤❤ How about the daily portion to have
A typical serving size is around 1 ounce (28 grams), which is roughly a handful.
AND NOT TO FORGET : They have around 35 grams of high quality protein per 100 g. -- Much more than beef etc. ...
what about the high omega6 content?

What about taking pumpkin seed oil as a supplement? Are the benefits worth adding this to my daily routine?
No
Do they need to be sprouted first? What about the phytic acids?
What do you think about blending it to make a milk Dr Berg ?
Dr. Berg,
I heard that that pumpkins are loaded with Lectins. Is that true? How many tea spoons of pumpkin seeds should we consume daily? Also is it necessary to saod them in water so that anti nutrients are gone?
Great video, in terms of amounts, is 2 table spoons per day Ok? This is how much I am having usually in breakfast.
How about cold pressed, virgin, pumpkin seed oil? Its a “seed oil “ is it a safe “seed oil”? Thank you for your help.
Makes sense as to why I've been craving them even though it's been ten or so years since having them. XD Thanks!
Hello dr berg.. can you do a video of pumpkin seed oil thanks a lot.. :)
gotta soak them to release phytates tho and dehydrate them below 45 degrees c to keep them raw and full of the nutrients
What is the best way to eat pumplin seeds, shelled or unshelled?
I add them on my chia pudding. ☺️
hello dr, will i receive these benefits in capsule form?
Great video ,thanks for sharing. Pack with a lot of nutritional value. Helps stop my craving and sleeping better.

learning from the master himself.
Dear doctor,What about soaking overnight or 24 h before consuming the seeds ? Would there bevat benefit ? Thanks.
?
Thanks for the vid! As a male, should I be limiting my intake of phytoestrogen? It's the reason I stay away from soy and flax. Thanks!
