I’ve recently had a full lab work done that I requested from hormone levels to c reactive protein to blood count, cholesterols and insulin. And much more. It’s unfortunate that us, the patients, have to do our due diligence because a lot of doctors/physicians are lazy or incompetent.
Or because they are brainwashed by the current medical training system.
Possessed by demons. There is no such thing as lazy or incompetent.
Most don't realize you don't even need a doctor's lab order to get them done.
@Khaliando. 99% are only going to do what they are told. They avoid sticking out and just want to earn a living. It is the current system that sets the "standard of care" which the doctors must follow. The exceptional 1% eventually start thinking for themselves, stop taking insurance and practice independently. 😐
@@drekberg thank you for being the 1%, doctor!
I get my own blood tests these days. My doctors just refuse to order blood work. So I go to Ulta Labs which is shockingly cheap (done via the quest network) and get the basics every year. (CBC, CMP, A1c, HS-CRP, Fasting insulin, Cpeptide, iron, even immunoglobulins) It is obvious to me that if you want to be healthy you need to do this. Doctors don't want you healthy, they want you to pay them. So they don't order the most relevant tests. I am so greatful that we can do this now and the ladies who draw my blood at quest tell me a lot of people are doing it. I can also get Urine tests.
I never knew we could order them ourselves. I thought doctors had to order them.
My docs (general and OBGYN) refuse to do hormone, A1C and C-Peptide panel. Says not necessary as my blood sugar levels tested within healthy range last year and that they could just put me on HRT based on age and symptoms without testing. I think they are nuts and reminded them that they test vitamin D levels before prescribing vitamin D. OBGYN still couldn't see her illogical reasons for refusal because docs are trained to treat after the fact as apposed to testing with prevention in mind. She asked what would she do with the information, that she'd have to interpret for me. I told her I would need her to interpret it for me, but as a paying customer and the one in charge of my body, I wanted it done. She still refused. Time for a new doctor.
I just want to thank you for educating me on insulin resistance and intermittent fasting. As a result I went from 311lbs down to 241 and A1C dropped from 7.3 to 6.4. My doctor was amazed at my last check up. Thank you again and continuing the life style change. 🙏
Keep up the good work. Get that A1C down more.
Hasn't done anything for me
Great work! Yes, God made our bodies to be capable of healing if given the right environment.
@@mstainasbabies7063🥲 Too bad god didn’t have the wisdom to just create us so that we did not get sick or age. It’s a shame that millions of people die from lack of freshwater every year, but god cannot do anything about it. Same goes for starvation or lack of medical care or housing. It’s sad god doesn’t have the power to simply correct everything and make life beautiful for everybody everywhere at all times. It seems your god is really a human concept.
Isn’t it wonderful that reality has presented us with knowledge shared by many people, studying, researching and sharing information to grow our knowledge so we can help ourselves… I am grateful for this wonderful doctor and the knowledge he wishes to share with us. No mystical, magical powers needed. Just use your brain and deal with reality instead of living in a fantasy world of foolishness and perpetual funding for freeloading pharisees calling themselves “men of the cloth“ or “men of god” because god cannot handle money except to collect it and not pay taxes. What does it mean? It means taxation without representation, because regardless of what any of us believe, or don’t believe we are all subsidizing, religion and all those who profit from it. Sickening.
@@divinewon73ya God gave us all we need and free will! Did you want to be a robot?
My husband and I have watched all of your videos. We have been practicing a keto lifestyle since March of this year. I have lost 20lbs, plus getting stronger. I work out twice a week at the gym. Usually 6 stations with weights upper and lower body with aerobic usually 30 seconds to one minute intervals at each station. My husband has lost 40 lbs and is now only taking one blood pressure medication. He has lots more energy and feels better. It’s a long story, but we want to thank you for reaching out and informing us on how to stay healthy. We also fast with only one meal a day. I am 66y/o and he is 68. We are retired. Thank you 😊
Dr. Ekberg is a godsend! More people should watch him and change lives for the better. If all schools would have a class just by showing his videos, children would be able to go home and teach their parents to be healthier!
A problem is that sometimes insurance will not cover tests or treatments unless you are diagnosed with an illness. This discourages people from doing anything until they are actually sick.
I had blood work done recently at a walk-in clinic. I spent the first 10 mins of the consultation trying to convince the doctor I was not ill, had no prior condition, and was in no pain so unaccustomed was she to someone attempting to be proactive with his health.
Love it!
Thanks Dr. !! You should be surgeon general and deserve medal of freedom !!! God bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank You @babagandu. No politics for me. LOL 😀
This is a great idea from him staunch supports BUT he's run into so much opposition that his platform for us, his staunch supporters would be severely diminished . I say NO, stay on YT for ALL OF US who love you. Health champions!
I've followed Dr since the white board and the markers...all I from me.
The more I research how to achieve great health, the more insignificant and useless my "board certified" allopathic MD becomes. Their tests are designed as an excuse to write (sell) a prescription, completely ignoring optimum health. Anyone interested in overall health MUST find a good Functional Medicine type who's education is 50 years ahead of their regular MD. Over the years I have solved several potentially disastrous health issues on my own because my MD had no pill for it, and was completely ignorant of how the body heals itself given a chance. After reading a forklift palate of cutting edge books, I have never once caught Dr Ekberg saying something inaccurate. His topics should be taught in every school in America.
My mother is 93 yrs old.
She has been in poor health her entire life.
Millions of $$$ spent on healthcare for her over the years.
She is in excruciating pain as a resident of a nursing home.
No quality of life.
Dr. I’ve watched you since you had hair and a beard, I am healthy 75 year old and I believe you are correct all of the time.
How much trouble would it be for doctors to include a booklet or report explaining all the bloodwork symbols and normal ranges...we spend lots of money for the bloodwork, they can spend 2 bucks on explanatory papers.
I wish I would have seen this video 10 years ago. This is exactly what happened to me with doctors not providing this type of information. Love the car maintenance analogy and humor!
Hello 👋 How are you doing today??
@@David_Robert_1 bad
Hi Dr. Ekberg. A friend of mine has type II diabetes and told me it's under control because his BG is normally only in the 160s. He said he's doing everything his doctor told him like eating whole grain cereals and fresh fruit (bananas) . I read him the riot act and told him to watch your videos. He called me today and after only about a week his average BG is below 120. Keep up the good work!
Remember, to tell him to take an A1C test, this the st is important to really figure out if he is prediabetic or not..
Doc if you released a 10 hour deep dive video I would watch it multiple times. I think a ton of people would do the same, hope you get the time soon!
Not a ton of people would watch it, but for sure me and all the dedicated to health people out there.
So do release it
Me too!
I would 100% watch it multiple times as I do most of your videos. PS, I attempted to access the blood work course but keep getting an error code (syntax?) I appreciate you taking on this mission. It means a lot to those of us who want to be health champions!
Thought the same thing. There are certainly more than enough people on this particular channel to watch it. Hopefully Dr. Ekberg listens to us!
Wthout question
after 58 years old, i finally learned, from you and a couple of other youtubers, that an a1c test is a must, i took my hubby (kicking and screaming) and me to our dr and insisted on the a1c and found that we were both pre diabetic, so we cut our carbs way back (not out) and the numbers went into the safe zone but we know it needs to be even lower, as that is best for us. we are still working on that.
My daughter is not able to function at simple daily tasks and is 31. Allopathic docs tell her all her tests are normal. I’ve been researching as mush as I can to help her. I truly feel you can help her get her back to normal health and be able to live her life. As a mother I feel sick I cannot help her. I’ll tell her to ask her doc to run these additional labs. I don’t know what else to do except pray for her. Thank you for these videos .. SO many people need this Information. May God bless and protect you and yours.
Praying is actually the key continue to pray and The Holy Spirit will help her and you to find out what is going on with her we ask this In Jesus Name amen
Is she suffering fatigue, or pain, or brain function problems, or what? When did this start? If all tests are normal, they just aren't running the proper tests!
change to healthy Keto diet immediately, no doctor will cure her with pills or bloodwork
Drs Georgia Ede, Elizabeth Bright, Chris Palmer, and others, are seeing how much our food choices affect how functional we can be. They're also found on TH-cam, sometimes as being interviewed, or speaking at events.
No matter the distance, I would immediately pack her up and take her to Cleveland Clinics Functional Medicine department. They will discover the causes and right it.
Just ordered your blood work course and looking forward to your understandable explanations of what the blood lab test results mean. You already prevented me from getting a non-alcoholic fatty liver by pointing out the dangers of eating too much fruit and what to eat and what to avoid. Am a huge TH-cam fan of yours and I tell as many people as I can about what they can learn from you to keep the standard American diet from making them sick or worse. Thanks for passing on your wealth of holistic knowledge to the uninformed and misinformed.
Thank you @deanarnold7264 for sharing your story. That is great. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! See you in the course. 😄
Dean does he tell you solutions or just what the numbers could mean? Does he also recommend the actual brands that are good or we have to figure that out? Thanks, want to know if it is worth it to spend the money.
Could you provide links to the fatty liver prevention videos?
lol. It ain’t fruit buddy.
I'm 41 and never had blood work. And I'm a huge fan of preventative maintenance. I'm a mechanic of 25 years. Thanks for the great info Dr.!
Thank You @montanamountainutv. Most people are going to find out several things they didn't know, but if everything is perfect that is worth confirming too. Then you can wait a few years before doing it again.😀
@@drekberg yes I better go in as I have no regular doctor. I have not seen a doctor in over 15 years! Thank you for your expert advice and valuable time!
@Paul Schwartz I see, definitely worth my time to look into it. So a specialist for blood test?
@Paul Schwartz wow great info. I'm going I'm that direction, seems more worth my time. Thanks!
When I was your age, I never went to the doctor. Unless I had some issue. Maybe for a sinus infection or something. It's a common thing with males. But as I got older, I started going in more regularly. People can look okay but they may have an issue. As I aged and my friends aged. I found out that a couple of my friends have diabetes. They never said anything about it right away but eventually it comes out when they feel comfortable telling others. For myself I take a blood pressure medication. High blood pressure is something that can happen to you, and you don't even realize it. So, I've made adjustments in my lifestyle to be more careful with my health. I'm 68 and I feel good.
This is a good message! 👍🏻
Excellent as every Friday!
Fantastic Information ‼️ Thank you so much ❤
I hope our current doctors watched this show as well ☺️
They do and most of them don't believed it and call it fad diet.
I’ve been a automotive engineering tech, worked in DOt /NHTSA And owned garages and vehicle testing and certification. I approve of your car 🚗 relationship.
Yes I would like to enter and thank you for your work!
Dr Ekberg, thank you for posting the most comprehensive videos always.
Extremely informative & thought provoking !!!! Truly a public service !!!!
Another GREAT one from Dr. Ek - Thanks, Doc! Could you please, if possible, make a video for some gene mutation tests. Without being done such, I'm pretty sure I have an MTHFR mutation one, making me for so long being tired and anemic. Since started taking coenzymated methyl-B vitamins seems I overcame it. Probably there are some other frequent gene mutations which lead to other common disorders?
Thanks once again for bringing such vital health knowledge to us - mere humans! 🤠🙏
thank you Doctor,
very well explained 💝
Thank you.
Always excellent!!
Bob
I wish I had a doctor like you!
Huge fan doc... I was waiting especially for this.... thank you, thank you, and thank you... you ve changed my life and I am trying really hard to change my family's and friend's life for quiet sometime... already working on the tribe but it's really hard with elderly people, especially mom and dad, I guess old habits die hard but no quitting... when I told my mom I didn't eat for 2 days because of you, she was angry with you :) but when they see changes in me, at least they start now on cutting bread, small steps for mankind a huge step for my mom... surely you are touching and saving lives, did I say thank you, here I say it again Thank you...
I’m excited about your contest. Thank you so much.
Tusen takk !
I love your videos, so informative and well explained. I haven't had blood work in a while. I actually work in healthcare. Unfortunately, I have seen the greed behind the scenes that has turned me off to the entire healthcare "business" I try to stay healthy by living a healthy lifestyle; rather than running to doctors when I get the slightest sniffle. I so appreciate you taking the time for educate and inform people. Thank you so much for all you are doing for so many....
Dr Ekberg, thank you for this video. I know it required a lot of research. It is appreciated
Thank you so much, Dr. Eckberg!
Excellent explanation. Thank you v much Dr.
Oh yeah Doctor, you gotta keep spreading the word of how to really take care of ourselves,,you are way too valuable to not do what you do. Thanks a bunch,,,you've done your share in improving my health way more then any medical doctor I have ever seen.
I love the great detail Dr. Sten goes into, I have learned so much from him about human health, diet, and our bodies. thanks Doc!
Proud of you! ❤
Thank you so much 🙏🏿as always ❤❤❤
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for your continuing help. I want to be one of the people that take part in gaining the knowledge for living healthy. My doctor is relying on the standards and not explaining the meanings of the interactions between the various blood tests.
Watched this episode two times for it's importance. 👍👍👍
Very informative. I had no idea this video was new today till the end!
Once you hit your mid 30’s, you should check your blood every 4 months ESPECIALLY if you’re overweight. The main issue with blood work and doctors ordering tests are insurance companies. If you order too many tests, they won’t pay the lab, who then turns around and bills the patient.
Beautiful that you found your mission!
Yes, this is much needed! Thank you Dr. Sten!
Thank you @RebirthLB for letting me know. I really appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.😄
Thank you dr for thinking out of the box. You are 1x of the 1% medical people who wants to know the root of the illness and not treating simptons only like the 99% left. God bless you.
SO CLEAR AND ACTUAL INFO :::
Changing lives in deed! Thank you for all you are doing! Much appreciated.
THIS is the video I needed and wanted for years!!! THANK YOU so much! I am severely anemic, so, yes, I am in the worst 2.5% for that. But I am also prediabetic even though according to normal range in my country nobody flagged me, except myself. And yes, I always had to push the doctors to let me make any non-flagged tests...
Please do a video on peri and menopause in terms of hormones
Thank you for all of your amazing videos.
Thank you.
May you be well.
Thank you, Dr. Ekberg, for all the awesome work you do to help us.
Hello 👋 How are you doing today??
Dr. Ekberg, I randomly found one of your videos on Intermittent Fasting in June of this year, and decided to give IF and keto a shot while watching the rest of your videos. I've lost 60 pounds since June, and have about 10 more to get to my goal weight. If there's a way to provide you a more thorough testimonial, I'd be happy to do that!
Thank you so much! Maybe doctors should wach this! Stay safe!
Oooh så bra du är på att förklara.
Tack så jättemycket
Dr. Ekberg I messaged you about my husband and myself practicing keto. I feel better than ever and my arthritis in my hands has diminished. I just went for a physical and my total cholesterol was 382 with LDL 291, HDL 79 , ratio 4.8 and triglycerides of 59. My physician of course wants to put me on a statin. The last time I was on rovustatin, I had pain in all my joints and I was at the point of experiencing pain with each step I took. I wasn’t on keto at that time and just thought it was age. I realized that the only thing that changed was the addition of the statin. I stopped it on my own and all my symptoms subsided.
Very informative
Thank You @mehnazjalil7661. Glad to hear it. 😀
Loved that last part...change the paradigm.
Excellent information and presentation. Thank you!
I look forward to doing your blood work program in the new year.
You are a class act all the way. Thank you for all you do.
You are welcome @charlesbraumberger6681. Thank you for watching. 😄
Thanks! So appreciative of your content.
Thank You @csstudio3648 so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel and and helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
I’ve been watching you for 3 years and have learned a lot. Thank you
You're the Champ!
Thank you.
You are welcome @bhavanasureshstephen9040. Thank you for watching. 😄
Before I watch your videos, I grab a pen and pad. I know I'm going to need to take notes. So informative! Thanks Dr. EKBERG!
Dr. Ekberg, this was a wonderful video. It really explained so much about my blood work. I was curious about so many things on my blood results. You gave me all my answers. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. ❤ 😊
👍👍- Thanks dr ekberg.
Dr. Ekberg you really have done magic to my health I was extremely ill Feb 2021 I was bed ridden for over 2 weeks with systemic chronic pain I decided I needed to take care of my health, I found you and I have never looked back, I have now today signed up for your course cannot wait to get started, Thank You So very much.
Thank You @fionn5305. I look forward to it. Did the payment go through? We have some people who had difficulty. 😀
@@drekberg Yes Dr. Ekberg I have successfully registered for the course cannot wait for the interaction with yourself I really do admire you and all the energy you have put into all your amazing videos,. I saw you and Lewis the other day what a superbe talk from you both.
Mission should become a Movement - beautiful words. We will be your warriors in the movement for sure. I was longing to have an video on blood test interpretation. So happy that I will be able to attend a live session with you on this subject. Feeling so grateful.
Thank you @celebratinglifewithmuthu1854 for letting me know. I really appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.😄
Excellent video and valuable for so many different reasons
Really change my paradigm.. Well done. Thank you so much 🙏🙏
I had A1C checked and my doctor never called me. I was curious some time after and checked my results: 5.6, almost pre diabetic. I wish the doctor would have called me to discuss preventative measures. With your videos I realize it was my daily fruit smoothies and eating some wheat products that were causing insulin resistance. I made the correct changes and I’m becoming insulin sensitive now.
Mine was 5.9 10 years ago when I was 57 and she said it was fine. I knew she was wrong. Of course I didn’t know anything about Dr Ekberg, IF, insulin resistance etc. I wish I had.
@@MacSwan wow, were you able to lower it? That sucks that your doctor wasn’t informative with preventative measures.
Thank you for the insulin information. I just ordered blood work for my diabetic husband. The doctor didn't want to get the insulin test, but he did. I only ordered the t4 and TSH because he is hyperthyroid because he is taking too much Synthroid. We will be getting the other tests as soon as his thyroid is in normal range. I hope I made the right decision. Thank you so much for all your hard work.
What fantastic prices! How generous of you! 🙏 And THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! 🙏🌟
These are vital information - thank you for sharing. People, as well as most doctors, don't understand this, which is a shame.
Hi doc I wished you were in my country antigua the way you explained it is so easy to understand man you're the best you're so right about everything that you have said keep up the, good, work's God, bless you
Thank You @marilynwilliams441. I wish I was in Antigua too. It is getting cold here. 😀
LOL....cold in Georgia ! ?@@drekberg
Measure for health, not for disease 👍
Thank You @andreasplattner2707.😀
Excellent Dr
Thank you Dr. Ekberg,
I have learn so much from.
I had a blood test carried out, the result came back: "Mostly Human". 👽 Thank you Sten & team. 👍
Thank You @DonTrower. LOL. That's pretty good. I'd take it. 😀
Very useful information. Thank you doctor. 🙏🏼
I love these videos. You are providing a invaluable service to us here on TH-cam. Thank you
I always had high bad cholesterol numbers, high blood sugar, always bad lab result, my family doctor recommended I needed to exercise more…
But what I really needed to do was eat more meat and cut out carbs. Eat those things Dr Ekberg recommend and everything went normal. My family doctor wanted to know what exercises I was doing, and I told her I was exercising better eating habits 😅
Cute! Good one. I think you hit the nail on the head with your strategy.
Best of health to you.
Very scary markers Doc. Thanks for the education ,wonder for the lists of doctors like you who actually avoidance of disease than waiting for it.
I need such a doktor near me !!!
Your videos are so informative, thank you. We've recommended your channel to several people.
Thanks for this reminder!
Hello 👋 How are you doing today??
Thank you very much Dr. Ekberg, really appreciated and very clear presented. The problem we have in Europe (and for me in particular the Netherlands) is that the GP's do not allow for testing all these blood markers. So we are really stuck....
Erik janse
Good to know. I'm in Tennessee. I didn't know how restrictive it was over there. Just a thought. Maybe you could afford to fly to this country and go to an independent lab. You can order blood tests on line from Life Extension . They can send you an order for blood tests . There are many on the list on line. You then take the order to a lab. No doctor needed. However, if You can afford, try to get an appointment here with a " functional practitioner to work with you. Some will do long distance consulting also. Dr Schmidt in Michigan did offer phone consultations and still may. You may have to be here in america to have this done.Depending on your situation with your overall health may determine what tests are needed and whether or not they will evaluate you overseas.
I don't know their policy.
I would take the time to search online especially if you feel like you are not getting the right care. Good luck.
Mike in Nashville
Erik. See my comment just below yours. It may have not posted correct. Too long to retype. Good luck
You should search for a lab that makes them by request and you pay for the tests.
In my office we offer blood work for discounted rates, but you would need to be in the US to take advantage of those test. We do offer long distance consults too. 678-638-0898 or www.drekberg.com
Thanks Dr. Ekberg. This is opportune as I am in India this week and can get these tests with an equal efficacy at a nominal price without the need of doctor’s note. Thanks
Thank You @abhipoona. Great timing 😀
Thank you doc.😊best regards-from the 🇵🇭
You are a healthcare SAINT!
I go to a Functional DO. He does these kinds of tests. My concern is if I should ever have an medical emergency, I will get the old traditional types of tests. Has anyone had this happen or had this question?
Hi Dr. Ekberg, can you talk about apo-B and oxidised LDL in details in your future videos? What causes high apo-B and oxidised LDL levels and how to lower them. Thanks~~
Spoilers, it's seed oils and high blood sugar damaging them via oxidative stress and glycation.
@@mikafoxx2717 Including those but certainly not limited to them. I recently tested and my ApoB was 110, despite optimal Hba1c (4.5%), fasting glucose (86), triglycerides (44). However, my cortisol was 27 (µg/dL).. I believe my ApoB is high because of stress, though my inflammatory markers were optimal as well. Feels confusing but definitely not consuming seed oils, added sugar, or excess carbs.
Thanks this was very informative.
Like the car and body analogy. Makes it helpful to understand internal workings!
