14:13 Check out my video on hydrochloric acid
Let’s look at what really causes chronic phlegm and what you can do about it.
Chronic mucus production in your throat can worsen at night, and you may notice other symptoms such as:
• Postnasal drip
• Chronic cough
• Hoarseness
• A sensation of a lump in your throat
• A sore throat without an infection
An allergy or virus could cause chronic mucus production. However, there is a more likely cause that’s related to two other symptoms, GERD and LPR. Both of these conditions are typically treated with antacids or other medications that suppress stomach acid.
If you have chronic mucus in your throat, you want to ask yourself if you have any symptoms related to GERD or LPR. But, the big problem is that some of the treatments for these conditions can come with many side effects-they may even aggravate the condition. The optimum solution should not give you a bigger problem than you started with.
It’s my view that low hydrochloric acid (stomach acid) is the most likely cause of GERD or LPR, which can lead to chronic phlegm. Hydrochloric acid is a very important fluid for many different bodily functions.
Instead of suppressing the symptom (chronic phlegm), we need to look at what we can do for the root cause (low hydrochloric acid).
How to help increase hydrochloric acid:
• Take betaine hydrochloride
• Stop consuming grains and grain-fed animal products
• Do intermittent fasting
• Avoid a typical vegan diet
• Avoid omega-6 fatty acids
• Consume more omega-3 fatty acids

At 81 yrs I had this problem, gerd and constant mucus in my throat. My solution is a keto diet with very low carbs and one meal a day at 11am no snacks. Apple cider vinegar about an hour or so before I eat. Exercise walking 3 miles a day for 6 days a week along with very light weights 8lbs dumbbells work out 30 mins. Keep in mind age makes this exercise a little more difficult as the years go on.. God bless you all!
Respect !
Keep moving and stay alive !
Don't forget organic alkaline fruit and greens !
Thank you for this valuable advice.
Wow. Don't you feel weak with just one meal daily?
What is gerd?
You are a-zmazing... I was told "it's not the years in your life, it's the life in your years" both on your side... you are abundantly blessed... if most think as well as act? What a world it would be...
I used to suffer with this issue BIG-TIME. The symptoms I experienced (lump in throat, excess mucus, and regurgitation...god the regurgitation was awful) were so bad that they affected my sleep greatly. I would wake up after a "night's rest" feeling like I had slept for 20, 30 minutes tops. It honestly made life very difficult for me, and I was often at my wits end for what to do besides using antacids or PPI. I mean, for god sakes, I was 21 at the time, why does a 21 year old need antacids? But in a way, having this condition may have helped me take greater control of my health. At some point I was so fed up that I actually did some research into the root causes (like Dr. Berg) suggested and found that it could be diet-related, or it could be due to lack of stomach acid...etc. I guess I was a lot more naive then so it took me much longer to come to the conclusion that it was a problem I could fix through lifestyle modification rather than strictly medication.
What I found, for me personally, was that food definitely had an impact. I used to consume a lot of protein powder after working out, and it certainly wasn't high quality. I cut that out, along with dairy. That provided a slight improvement. I then found out about the Betaine-HCL (Not sure if it was through Dr. Berg, can't remember) and I bought that as well. Started using that and again, after two weeks or so, saw more minor improvements. Well, that gave me a lot of hope. I tried to make my diet as clean as possible, just for one month, to see how well I could benefit. In addition, I began consuming a LOT of fermented foods, specifically kefir and sauerkraut. That seemed to have a HUGE benefit. Lastly, I also considered the fact that my gut lining was probably damaged due to terrible diet, medications, you name it. So I was taking "L-glutamine" for a good period of time in order to remedy that. That felt like a much slower change over time, but I do think it had positive effects. I also took Zinc Carnosine for a period of time. The combo of these pretty much gave me my life back. I'll summarize it below:
-Cutting out certain foods (for me, dairy/protein powders)
-Using Betaine-HCL with meals to improve stomach acid
-Clean up diet (kinda goes along with the first one)
-Consume fermented foods (Kefir, sauerkraut, etc)
-L-glutamine (Positive effects on gut lining and repair)
-Zinc Carnosine (for stomach lining)
Hope that helps. I know I wrote a wall of text here but this issue affected my life for so long that I want to assist anyone suffering with this condition in any way I can.
Oh god! I have the same symptoms and dry mouth couldn't figure it out!
Thank you great info. Bless
Ryan thank you so much .got the same problem 🤗🤗
You are an example of generosity :-)
I went through many of the things you went through. I just didn’t have computers when I was in my 20’s. So I didn’t really go that route. I was blind. I wish I had. I believe we’re all so conditioned to believe doctors. That they know better so we must follow what they say. They must have our best interest at heart. But honestly how can they? Through they years I’ve seen that people are just a commodity to them. A way to make a buck. When you knew their history, that for centuries they were just servants. Not the prestigious position they hold today. But the drug companies have improved the doctors reputation and have push this propaganda that only doctors know your body and what is going on and what is best for you. They say, “do as they say, they know best, you can’t know you haven’t been to medical school.” But people didn’t know that they were being duped by the drug companies. Even many doctors don’t realize that medical schools are influenced by drugs companies and that’s why they don’t even look at natural ways and food ways of healing the body. It’s disgusting. It’s all about money when you get down to it. While people are dying unnecessarily.
I truly wish the average Doctor spent this much time with their patients explaining the root cause of their issues.
You got that right !
Naturopath and internal medicine is going to come back stronger than ever before. They deserve recognition for standing their ground and not giving in to the pressures of society, pharmaceutical companies, health insurance and peers.
100 percent
100 percent YES.
Eastern medicine Ayurveda especially and Chinese are so much more in tune with digestion, nutrition and prevention.
YES YES YES Agreed
That's why the government is trying to take over regulating vitamin industry.
Dr berggg!! are you a magician? you seem to upload videos at just the right time. Thanks doc🙏
Bahahaha yes he is 🤪
You noticed that as well
So true! I'm having this problem too recently 😅 He's definitely an expert magician 👍❤👍
You ain't never lied 👍 👍
same here. lol
This guy is a wizard! Anytime i acknowledge a health problem of mine, he uploads a helpful video to explain and solve it.
It's because you typed something into your search engine. Algorithms.
I agree its the algorithm yes. But he has uploaded a video right when I needed help with an issue.
@PanZerPal: it makes you wonder lol.

No... Its because your phone can hear you caugh👀
Ahum. 👀. @@martinez209 👀
Hi doc, as always you're just a treasure of information & help.This for me is huge for the last 8 years or so. Terrible gut, bad reaction to diary & proteins, mucus & sore throat, plus lump in throat, cough out of nowhere., my joints inflamed . Lately possible heartburn...they checked heart , gallbladder etc & only found abit if arrythmia that was fixed with magnesium & a little cyst in gall bladder. There's always pain on the left side of my body/ back...& I only started thinking-was this stomach related? Then this video popped up....I think you just might have helped me work out what's going on🙏...you are just so good....how blessed are we to have you helping us.Grateful🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏Keep on keeping on doc.🙂 Treasure!
My doc says it is good to have theae pills so I dropped him. You make so much sense to me been dealing with this for 5 months. I am now with a naturopath and she has helped me lots
This may help someone reading. I had these symptoms and the Drs thought I had asthma and then GERD and then LPR. They kept trying to prescribe soooo much medication. I was miserable. Turns out after finding the most amazing Dr in Texas, I actually did NOT have asthma or GERD or silent reflux at all!!! I ended up having VOCAL CORD DYSFUNCTION (almost identical symptoms as what everyone kept diagnosing me with). There is a special test they can do to look at your vocal cords. After going to vocal cord therapy with a speech pathologist who specializes in this condition, my constant coughing, shortness of breath etc was fixed. It was a simple fix and seriously changed my life! There aren't many who specialize in this and clearly many Drs don't even know about this. The therapy was just special breathing and vocal exercises to heal my vocal cords. It took about a month and no medication needed. I was able to throw out the inhalers and the Prilosec and all the other meds Drs kept prescribing. Hope this helps!
A better diet will help prevent it from reoccurring, or some different issue developing in the future.
Wow! I would never have guessed this could be a problem. My daughter had issues that doctor thought was Gerd. She was put on Prilosec and that literally almost killed her. Part of the side effects of Prilosec you can develop pneumonia and she did. This was during the height of Covid. That in turn sent her into sepsis. Finally got admitted to hospital. They kept sending her home. She was a mess. Whoever reads this DO NOT use Prilosec!!!
Thank you for posting this.
Hi I have the same problem I like too know more please tell me more I'm from CA
what’s your doctor’s name? I’m in texas and have been suffering for years!
Glad your feeling better. Did you ever spit up blood when speaking for a long time or post nasal drip when you were going through this situation?
Great video. I suffered from post nasal drip and daily mucus in throat for approximately two and a half years. I had this from 2002-2004 in my early 20’s. Doctors could not figure it out. They kept telling me I had an infection and required antibiotics. An infection was never the case. I’m 2004, an ears, nose, and throat specialist stated that before surgery consideration, she wanted to rule out fungus. She had me conduct a sinus rinse (Neti pot) 6 times a day for three weeks. Magically, the post nasal drip and excess mucus disappeared; it had killed the fungus. To this date I apply a sinus rinse daily in AM. Wanted to share my story for those that have have ruled out bacteria, allergies, and acids.
Another non-digestive cause for chronic mucus production in the throat can be a nasal polyp. I suppose that was not your case because the ear doctor would have most definitely seen it when examining your nose. However, it was the case with me.
For some reason general practitioners rarely examine the patient's nose when one comes presenting these symptoms, even though a nasal polyp is a known common cause, and the examination is very simple.
Very helpful information. I have had this condition for decades but don't have problems with acid reflux and don't need to use anti acids. It felt more like a sinus/nose condition than a gastric condition. I will try the steps that helped you. Thank you for sharing!
When digestion is slowed down by lack of gastric juice, apple cider vinegar diluted with water and honey helps a lot. 🥃
I’m going to try this remedy! I’m always clearing my throat of mucus, especially at night. Drives me nuts! Thank you!
@@lindamartodam6014 fungus or tiny particles that can be inhaled can travel to your upper sinus cavities above your eyes. They can live there and aggravate your sinus passages. Your sinuses will create more mucus to alleviate the irritation. Sinus rinses (salt) will assist with clearing your sinus cavities. Try the rinse in the morning and before going to bed.
I love the thoroughness and clarity of this video ! Thank you 🙏🏻
I had this issue for years, once I slowed and stopped my consumption of dairy, it went away 🤷🏾♀️
Raw dairy from grass fed cows is your friend. Pasteurized dairy is frankendairy.
interesting need to try this
@@DRourkproblem is you can't get raw milk anywhere
Do you eat clarified butter ?
I just noticed this after trying to recover from being in bed 4 weeks. Yogurt and milk would make me have tons of phlegm spit. I noticed it when I ate yogurt and I put two and two together because milk did the same thing even A2 milk.
Such a BLESSING..
To have brave doctors like this willing to put their knowledge online and brave through the cruelty for years of critical people before it was acceptable to be different,
It takes persistence and tenancity to go through the years of going against the "normal" standard way of doing things.
We needed this doctor, so thankful he's here doing his job.
Thank you on behalf of all of us.
Amen!
Absolutely
100%
There is nothing " normal " about the Rockefeller Medicine Model .
i hope he doesnt get in trouble for speaking truth like others have.....
Same problems, i reduced coffee/caffine, reduced soda, stopped eating late and fasted. I feel like a new person. My sleep has gotten so much better.
God bless you more Dr Eric B
Thank you because I have had this problem for over 20 years and my vocal chords have been impacted.
Thank you Dr Berg! I’m a Nurse and you have taught me so much more than I learned in school. I understand far better from your videos than any book in school! I appreciate you! ❤️
Glad to be an inspiration and I'm happy you found the information useful.
@@Drberg I have recently started IF because of you! I am also doing healthy keto. I’ve lost 20 lbs I’m loving this new lifestyle, because of you! ❤️
I wish people wouldnt spit it out on the st i have to turn away it turns my stomache

Same here… I can say most my knowledge comes from this Chanel.
I'm not gonna lie, intermittent fasting has help my life tremendously!
Wow this has helped me immensely. Going in for an upper gi, placement of a ph monitor, and a manometry test in a few weeks, and I've had terribly digestion problems and auto immune issues. This broke down the facts and with videos made me understand what's going on with my system.... terrific job
I am suffering with this problem. I am happy your video pops up on my phone
Glad this helped. Thanks for watching!
It happens to me every time I eat dairy , even if a small amount of butter on food it happens to me
I grew up on my grandparents dairy farm. We ate good food and lol exercised often so not a lot of overweight issues. When we rarely had digestive issues, my Awesome gram would pull of the apple cider vinegar, give you some and almost every time your issues were resolved in a couple minutes. I use it today for any heart burn and it is resolved within a couple minutes, decades later...tying to some of your other content, they also ALWAYS had a 50 gallon wooden barrel of sauwerkraut and another full of pickles, which we raided constantly for snacks...Love your content
I enjoyed your comment like I was reading a Novel
@@renarich4942 🤣
Sounds amazing ❤
This guy change my life! I lost some people in my family who thought how I did this was unhealthy, because what I was doing went against how they loved to live with their addictions they don’t realize they have , meanwhile they all sick and look like balloon faces. I have been sick since i was 8 years old with my liver as I had issues that long ago. 25 years later of depression I come across his videos and wow just wow. No more depression :) I’m down 104.5 pounds since oct 2021, doing OMAD and keto
Same diet got my dads blood sugar from 14 down to 6 average in same amount of time :)

Good on you
Congratulations 🎉
Congrats and thanks for sharing your story it will help someone for sure !
🥰 fantastic
THANK YOU!..Can’t believe you made this video’I’ve suffered from post nasal drip and the sensation of phlegm in the back of my throat along with hoarseness for a year now, no acid reflux or any other issues. Have noticed when I take hot coffee my hoarseness gets worse. Thank you for this video! Seems like you always bring us topics we never expect of symptoms we might think “it’s only me”
Excellent video! Keep making these videos as you will help more people to live well!
I am so so so so incredibly happy I found you.
I told my mom you were absolutely made for me. Every issue I have and had, you know it like I was telling you word for word what's wrong. & you have a solution for it.
Thank you. I'm glad for the day I saw your first video because it was the best ever.
You're the best buddy! I've had this problem for years. Always wondered what the deal was!!
I love your videos. God bless you for sharing important health information
I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have been diagnosed with Subglottic Stenosis and I truly believe it is a mucus production problem and once I get this under control I will be able to breathe and feel normal again. My airway doesn't feel restricted but my lungs are drowning in fluid. Going to try this right away.
Dr Berg you are so loved!!! It is because of you and your videos that my quality of life has turned around. Just when I started to ‘accept’ that I’m sick to my stomach, literally feeling like it’s only a matter of time my body is going to give out on me, not to mention my labs constantly yo-yo-ing between low iron low VitaminD3 who many other symptoms that I feel doctors were stumped on how to get to the bottom of my problems. Ultimately I have healed myself via your videos without medication, fixing my gut! Wow, what a precious thing the gut is for the function of your entire body and well being! Thank you Dr Berg🙏
Good testimony my brother
@A L please what drugs did you take
Really ? I also have low vitamin D .. and constant throat mucus. Please can you share what helped ?
Thank you Doc for bring up this topic at the right time again , I don’t know how to get rid of it but I’m following your advices- You are needed here in Canada ☺️
This has to be the best video I've ever seen.
Dear Doctor Berg, you Sir are simply wonderful. Thank you again.
So true! Ever since I started intermittent fasting and eating fresh fruits and vegetables from the garden my Gerd has improved dramatically. I am no longer taking any otc or prescriibed medicines. Thanks for this video! So informative.
I can not get over the amazing information you provide! Why can't this be mainstream? It would help so many people!
Thank you!
So happy to learn this because I have that problem that comes and back. I will follow your ideas. 🙏

Happy you found it useful! Be well!

God bless you and keep you safe 🙏❤️
Thanks for the presentation and analysis. Good stuff as usual.
You did a very good job explaining this in layman’s terms. I understood everything you said. I have had this issue every morning for most of my life. I’ve assumed it was an allergy. It is easy broken up when I drink hot tea in the morning. And when I cut out foods that cause inflammation. Based on symptoms you mentioned I don’t have gird. I have to be careful because I have had 3/4 of my stomach removed.
Excellent report Dr. Berg. I have had stomach problems since I was a child and until today no one has provided me with such in depth explanation as well as provide real solutions other than just told to take Zantac daily which I never have. Congratulations on being one of just a couple of trusted health care professionals.
Hi Vicky did you get sorted .
Try Kombucha probiotic and eating celery everyday and drink a glass of water with Celtic salt every morning warm like a tea and a glass of water every hour.

Omg I’ve been dealing with this “lump” in my throat and feeling like I have too much phlegm stuck that I can’t clear, for so long with no diagnosis. It’s caused me panic attacks because I feel like I can’t swallow! It’s been so detrimental to my mental health. I’ve been dealing with this for 1.5 years!
Thank you for addressing this. I want to cry that I finally know what’s wrong with me, no thanks to my doctor, all the thanks to you!
Famotidine or Pepcid ac got rid of that lump feeling in my throat.
Hello Michelle, How’re you doing?
Dr Berg, how can I support you more? You have a video for every single issue I’m having. I often send your videos to family and friends that are having issues as well. You explain things so well 😊 I’ve been on Pantaprazole now for 8 months but after being diagnosed with diabetes type 2 a month ago, I’ve followed your advice and went directly into intermittent fasting and low carb. I’ve went from DKA 13.7 to 12.1 in two weeks and am trying now to wean myself off the acid reducer. I have been concerned of the side effects and have been dealing with high amounts of mucus and nasal drip. This video is a Godsend ♥️ Thank you!!

Hello Mary, How’re you doing?
What an 'informative' presentation. You've told me more in under 15 minutes that 20 procedures conducted with balloon and scope on my esophagus since I was 26yo. I liked the fact that you included 'other' possible root causes; their effects and general directions that I would certainly ask my 'primary' about. At almost 68, I'm informed I have 'Barret's' Syndrome as a result of many years of 'GERD'. I had never heard of ''LRP' and seriously am a 'candidate' for that 'diagnosis' as I frequently find myself with 'Mucous Throat'... Given my history with GERD; Esophageal spasms, a lifetime prescribed anti-acids, and PPI's it all comes together quite clearly. I wonder if I'd been 'misdiagnosed' all those years, even after the many scope procedures... Thank you for your effort putting together this very informative presentation. Have sent this 'link' to others who should ask their 'primary'...
We keep calling it Big Pharma so you get a clue; they are not ever going to cure us!
wonder if misdiagnosed?... docs have been “ knowingly” prescribing ppis to patients who do NOT have excessive stomach acid.. but TOO LITTLE. I know.
To add.. ppis were never meant to be taken but for a few months .. NOT lifetimes.
I believe I have esophageal spasms as well, have had every test procedure done imaginable. This video explained very well. It makes sense. Would love to chat about the spasms. No dr understands what I’m telling them. Thank you
I've been on pip's for 25 years. Wonder what kind of damage is already done.
Hi Dr, I got most of the symptoms you have mentioned
I have this problem with my stomach and lots of post nasal drip, now I'm informed and will talk to my Doctor on the 14th of November. Thank you for taking your time to talk about this ❤️ GREAT 👍 Videos Doc
Thanks a lot Dr Berg for this very informative video. Your videos are helping so many people like me out there. You are highly appreciated for all the time and effort you put in making these. Stay blessed❤️

How to help increase hydrochloric acid:
• Take betaine hydrochloride
• Stop consuming grains and grain-fed animal products
• Do intermittent fasting
• Avoid a typical vegan diet
• Avoid omega-6 fatty acids
• Consume more omega-3 fatty acids
Thank you Dr Berg🐱👍🏿
There are still doctors and nutritionists who will actually tell you that in order to reduce stomach acids, you need to reduce or eliminate acidic foods.
... and that eating too much fat is what causes people to become "fat."
Also, avoid Dairy products except eggs !!
In another video he mentions slippery elm capsules...it works
Thank YOU too
Thank you, Dr. Berg! As usual, your explanation is clear, exhaustive and helpful!

Bless you, Dr. Berg. I have been dealing with these issues for three years now, mostly LPR. Chronic cough and hoarseness. My doctor does not want to hear about it anymore. Through research and now, especially you, I think I am improving. I have never considered PPIs, which is what they always want you to take. Just subscribed. Please keep up the excellent, informative videos.

@@Drberg which country are you from?iwish you can examine me
@@sallypeter1407 dr Berg is not a physician
@@angelsandocean2853 That's the understatement of the decade. :)
Another cause, especially for those over 50, is Hiatal Hernia, which allows stomach acid into the esophagus and throat. Stooping over allows this to happen more frequently. Before bed, try jumping off a small step (about 6 inches high) several times and forcing the stomach back down through the diaphragm. Also, a tablespoon of cider vinegar helps with the stomach acid.
What a relief 🤗, finally a doctor,not talking CRAZY, BUT MAKING A whole lot of sense!!👍
Brilliantly explained.

Dr. Berg, I have been following you for years and do believe that you are definitely better informed than most doctors. Today I’m commenting because in this video, your skin looks younger than ever. For a while you were losing too much weight and I do remember when you made that comment yourself. But, right now, you are looking great and extremely healthy. Thank you so much for your continued wealth of information from which we are constantly benefiting .

He looks much better. Also the tan looks good and facial hair.
big salute to you from Bengaluru- Karnataka.
your videos are really very good and helpful.
Mucus isn't always from GERD. Sometimes it's from Sinus drainage and such.
True, but I found that the sinus drainage subsided once my reflux/GERD was under control. The acid fumes were irritating my sinus.
@@ivyhernandez2526 but thats you. There are different reasons for it.
And something is irritating them. GERD is likely for most.
I have Post Nasal Drip but I do not have any problems with my stomach.
I do not use antacids, I do not need them.
Candida can get into the lungs and sinus. Fungus is behind so many respiratory problems. It can go systemic left untreated.
One of the side effects listed for a BP medicine my 75-y o husband is taking is this irritated throat. And he has it. The doc wants to push more pharmaceuticals. We have been trying other supplements to help his blood pressure (along with 30 minutes (minimum) walking and better diet). I appreciate the information provided in this video.

Hello. I. Been. Suffering. W. All. The. Symptoms. I. Just. Scream. Help.
Check out Barbara O Neil right there in your back yard.
Omg I'm so glad this showed up on my feed! I've been diagnosed with GERD about 15 years ago. I've always wondered why I had this periodic, annoying cough for years. The cough would build up the mucous, and I would need to constantly clear my throat. It's a cycle. Very very helpful video! Thank you!🙏🤗
Hi how you treat your gerd symptoms?
@@williamsoutdoor7578 I take an OTC acid reducer, 20mg. I've only been needing to take it 3-4 times a week. It's been keeping it under control. Also, cutting down on coffee creamer helps too, and acidic foods.
@@michellerene951 thanks for your reply 👍
@@williamsoutdoor7578 You're welcome :)
@@williamsoutdoor7578 try boldocynara by A.Vogel. it's a natural digestive supplement. It cured my GERD in a week with no changes to my diet. i had a terrible case of GERD for a year and a half. Let me know if it works for you!
My husband had everything described in this video. His GI doctor only prescribed anti acids and then a surgery to flip half his stomach to stop acid. After being miserable for two years and put on a feeding tube my husband died. I begged him to switch doctors but he wouldn’t because the doctor was was a friend. 😡 Everyone should listen to this video.
Western Doctors are not your friends, they are out to make money only. Big Pharma runs their offices.
Oh no, I hate that. I'm very sorry.
I went alternative 30 years ago . It was the best thing l did . Feel so sorry for you , your husband did not need to die .
My husband was prescribed Prilosec. He has Parkinson’s.
That is terrible. If he had just done research he could have turned it around. Sorry for ur loss.
Finally I found this video! I’ve been doing searching and wondering for years to understand and solve my problem of chronic mucus, belching and all sorts of other symptoms.
Great. Hope the information here will help you.

Dr. Berg you are incredible! I just made the connection that i may have GERD! Sometimes it hurts to swallow and my voice cracks all the time. I've had gut issues for like 7 years now and it's gotten worse and worse.
Dr Berg, you seem to know everything I'm struggling with. Thank you so much 💓
You're very welcome!
This just reinforces the fact how minutely our organs and their functions are so delicately balanced. Thanks for addressing such serious problems!
You’re video always in the right time as if you knew I had sore throat due to weather
Dr Berg , you are God sent to help us.
What would we do without you. I’m suffering with this problem from many years, no one was able to diagnosis it. Every year I take antibiotics thinking it was infection.
Finally will try your medicine.I’m sure this will work.
Thank God and thank you.
Hi Dr. Berg. I feel like I'm back at HU when I watch your videos. I come to class faithfully/daily... multiple times a day! lol! Thanks for spreading knowledge & genuinely trying to help.
Thank you. You explained things in a very understandable way that made me think outside the "Typical Box" for things like (Sore Throats, Ear Aches, constant mucus feeling like it's stuck in a glue ball to the back of the throat.) All of these things I've been struggling with my 9yr old for two years now. When he was an infant and we switched him off breastmilk he started having issues doctors said oh its acid reflux here give him this medication. Trusting those with the medical degree was giving me honest guidance I gave it for a while. It didn't do much so I stopped it. Ffwd some years he's now 9 and always complain of the above issues with zero infections or illness go explain these symptoms and his father has stomach issues I am leaning towards asking different questions now when we see his doctors again. So I appreciate this video! 😌
Wow! You just answered why I’ve had this condition for 5 months and have been prescribed antibiotics and histamines! THANK YOU!!!
Thanks Dr. Berg for the Clarity
You're most welcome
Thank you Dr Berg. I have been going through this problem for so many years
Love your videos Dr Berg, I’ve got this chronic mucus and lots allergies for over a decade now. I’m hoping this video will help me a lot. 🤞
I would look in to Salicylate intolerance. ... There are high and low content foods. It's changed my life
My whole life I’ve had chronic sinusitis & always have the post nasal drip.
@@susanlisson7066 Quit foods with tomatoes, onion powder and garlic powders first And Rye. They put rye in bread to bulk it up. it'sterrible for my sinusitis.
This make so much sense! I have gastritis and Acid reflux which is causing me that constant mucus. Thank you!
Glad this video was informative!
Dr. Berg, this is exactly what I am experiencing. Thank you for always explaining these issues in such a way that’s easy to understand.
Well done. I have mucus production in my throat. I will try the Betaine hydrochloride to see. Did you find anything better please?
I have been living with these symptoms for the most part of my life. I have been to multiple doctors ( had 2 endoscopy plus biopsy, seen multiple nose doctors ) and still suffering.
You saved my life when I saw your ACV video years ago. My doctor had me taking nexium and it was killing me. Gerd was making my life miserable. I was coughing all the time. Once the Gerd was gone, I changed my diet to keto thanks to you and then my health totally turned around.
Are you cure from gerd? I was starting to think that it is impossible to reverse it.
what medication did you take ?
That's amazing pls share with me what did you take to make better thanks
Thank you Doctor. Very insightful.i have been battling with GERD since 2years ago. I'm happy found tris video.
TY SO MUCH FOR YOUR VERY IMPORTANT INFOS DEAR DR ERIC BERG I FOLLOW ALL YOUR VIDEOS STAY WELL AND SAFE
Dr Berg, I wish I knew this years ago when my husband got esophageal cancer and sadly passed to that… he suffered from GERD for a long time without anything really helping only treating the symptoms.. thank you so much. I’ve learned a lot listening to your videos. THANK YOU!!😊
My father just died in the very same manner. He lived some distance away so I hadn't seen him for a couple of years. When I heard about his symptoms (annoying cough, coughing up mucus, trouble swallowing, sometimes choking on his food) I knew immediately that we were almost certainly looking at esophageal cancer. How my mother and brother and sisters never put two and two together I'll never understand. They all have access to the internet and could have googled his symptoms. Instead, they allowed the doctor to fumble and dither until it was too late.
@@paulmaxwell8851 Sorry to hear about your father…sadly modern medicine wouldn’t wanna treat the cause, they ONLY do symptoms…or maybe they don’t even know.
@@solnav6579 they don’t care!
Good stuff. I have had GERD for 40+ years. I initially used OTC meds which helped but, in my 40's I was prescribed omeprazole which worked really well. I too have noticed increased issues with breads eaten later in the day triggering acid overload. Recently, my wife has started making home made bread ground from raw wheat berries that become flour minutes after grinding and go right in the oven after three hours of rising. Strangely, ZERO acid effects after eating this nutritious version of what bread is supposed to be. Lab tests report most of the wheat products sold in grocery stores have little or no nutritional value (because they are made from flour ground weeks or months before use which has little nutritional value) while fresh-ground home baked items retain their full nutritional value for a couple days after baking. Great discussion. Keep it coming!
Does omperazole still work?
God bless you Dr berg, u change my life.
Thanks for sharing this! Blessings!
Most welcome!
