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.
@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. 😐
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.
@@Pennygirl99In the free state of Florida, you can order your own blood tests and take charge of your own health. In New York, you will submit to the commies running the state, including the witch doctors. You are NOT ALLOWED as the 'state' knows what's best for you. Every state is different.
I dont trust doctors especially Kaiser. I do my own blood work through labcorp. Very cheap. Recently did a Lipase test for pancreatic health because I have high triglycerides. Doctors just want to see you when you're already screwed up so they can give you drugs. Prevention is the key.
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 😊
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. 🙏
@@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.
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!
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.
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!
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.
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!
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!
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.
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.
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!
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!
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.
Please keep doing what you are doing. People want quick fixes and info. I commit dedicated time to listen and take notes. The detail and methodical delivery of information is more than anyone getting FREE information could ever PRAY for!
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.
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. 🙏 🏆 😄
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 went to my doctor today to request blood work that included my insulin level and magnesium among other things and was told that it was useless to know those numbers! I’m looking for another doctor!
Thank you, Dr. Ekberg, for all that you do. With all the good doctors on YT, they still cannot agree on many things. So much conflicting information out there. It is really hard for the average person to know what to do. Most of the PCP's have the worst information and don't really seem to care. I guess you have to pick a few doctors on YT and go with them. Dr. Ekberg is one of my go to doctors for information.
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.
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.
Hello dr. Ekberg, I discovered your channel or teachings a year ago and I must say it's really amazing. I have hypothyroidism and refused to be put to statin, when I asked the doctor for how long I will take them and she said for life. I developed a small goiter and I discovered from one of your video that my thyroid are not sick but looking for iodine. Through intermittent fasting I have reduced weight and become fat adaptive. Your teachings are great and hope many people will be rebelated through it. I am a clinical nurse and refer many patients to watch your videos. Thanks again
@@nhabinezabudara8797 hi I take a glass of salty water every morning waiting to do the blood test and see whether it improves. I stopped using Maggie in food and use natural salt. Wish you all the best.
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.
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.
Yikes, my Ferritin level came back at 454! The doctor actually said it is normal. It is super high! You said liver and pancreas would be the first to be damaged. My mother died of pancreatic cancer. How do I find a doctor that thinks more like you do?
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.
@@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.
I'm so excited you are doing this course at all..I am in tears watching this. I tried to geg help at my doctor and got fat shamed as he tried pushing a weight loss pill. As I told him I was eating keto with no weight loss he just told me I wasn't trying hard enogh and needed to get more serious...I'm litterally mortified to think about going to the doctor for "anything at all".
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....
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.
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 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.
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.
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...
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.
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.
You have helped me to increase my health so very much and I will be forever grateful for you!! I told my wife that I wish I could meet with you just before you announced the contest! I'm saying a prayer to win this one! Thank you again for taking the time to help thousands of people God bless my friend!
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.
Why I have to wait till I will have a very bad stage of some illness 😤It is much better to prevent 👍Anyway,we know it is good to have a good lifestyle 😀Thank you so very much Dr.Ekberg🌈🌹Wish to be my go👍✌️
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!
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.
God bless you Dr. Ekberg. You are a life saver for millions of people all over the world now. You should go ahead with your mission and passion for better health. I want you to change our present sick care system. Thank you very much for your dedication.
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...
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.
As I watch this video, I am going back and forth to my daughter’s blood work results. She(17 yo) has been sick and not able to function well, yet everytime bloodwork comes back, they say she is fine🤷♀️. This video helped me to analyze some situations that may be affecting(effecting?) her health. Thank you for the work you do and the knowledge you share. Much appreciated
It's our food making everyone sick ... my daughter is only 21 and sick all the time ... enough is enough you must study nutrition & if able try to go to a functional medicine Dr. Who can help with whole food supplements & nutrition. Conventional medicine just keeps you sick I know this is fact they did it to me with my thyroid .
I like my doctor, but it is clear that he doesn't have the time or knowledge to examine bloodwork with this amount of care. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for an invaluable education! Stay awesome!
My doctor looks over my bloodwork, but he doesn't really take the time to talk about it. He just tells me that I'm healthy. I take a med for blood pressure. Luckily where I get my bloodwork done, they give me online access to the information the doctor is looking at.
dr. Ekberg: i am canadian . live in vancouver. you are the best doc. i will trust and follow. like to have visit your clinic . where is your clinic.. i like to bring my husband to let you have a check on his blood. all doc here all typical. thanks you in advance to reply to me. we are in early 80, not on any medication at all. follow all the do and donts all our life.
I see it like this Doctor, if I'm dead it's to late to get me fixed. So I get me checked for my future comings. People say to me, you are always at the Doctors. First of all it's none of their business and then I ask them when was the last time they been to a doctor and they can't even answer. I gets it all checked on vacation and on my days off, I make an appointment ears, nose, throat etc etc etc. Get things checked before their are future problems that you can catch now. I hate going to the Doctors just like my father, but he died at 89 and he would be still here if he went on the regular like he was supposed to. Keep keeping us alive Doc.
Hwllo Dr. Sten Ekberg. I was diagnosed with diabetes in the month of Septermber 2022. My HbA1C was 14 and my Extra fasting sugar (after 14 hrs) was 277. I was shattered and when consulted a doctor, was advised to start medication. However, I was not willing to take medicine and somewhere believed that diet should be able to help control my Sugar levels even though I did not have any idea how. It was just an intuition and then I started searching the TH-cam for some guidance. And as fate would have it, to my good luck I started watching your videos and learning more about Insulin Resistance and more importantly what causes it and how can it be controlled. I have been following you ever since and I see your videos regualarly for 1 hour atleast everyday. I have made certain changes in my diet and also started moderate exercise(1 hr walking). After 2 and a half months my Fasting FLucose is around 100 and my PP is around 170. Though these are not ideal levels, with your guidance I have developed the confidence that I can reverse my insulin resistance with persistence and discipline. Your videos are the best quality in terms of content and also presentation. May God bless you and give you energy to change millions of lives all across the world. Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you I am starting a course on Sunday 12/11/22. I really don't think it would do well on TH-cam. Here is the link www.drstenekberg.com/blood-work-course if you are interested.
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
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
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
I highly recommend ordering Dr. Ekberg's blood course. He has such a knack for explaining something as complicated as our bodies in an understandable way. His presentations are the best on TH-cam. Plus, the course is always available to you for future reference.
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 😅
Then pony up some BIG bucks. It ain't free .. it ain't cheap! I really thought he was going to be different than the rest of them. I guess TH-cam views aren't paying enough.
@@delinquense 🤣😂😅 The kicker is that I live in Mexico, and I only earn pesos, amigo! 🇲🇽 That was funny! TH-cam doesn't pay much, and they "down regulate" all of my videos for speaking to much truth. 🥩💪😁👍🥓🍳
@@thomashughes4859 too funny. I'm in PVR right now on vacation. Yes, that's a lot of pesos. I can afford it easily but probably won't participate for that reason. If he was truly trying to help, this would be free. He's no different from the rest; I had high expectations for him. It's all about greed. Yes, he should be compensated for his efforts, but he doesn't need this extra income. I'm sure youll agree. Mexico needs good health advice more than most any country I have visited. Nutrition is abominable here... though food is delicious. Its the land of sugar and carbohydrate. It's such a huge part of the culture it would be difficult to change.
I have learned si much by following your channel, I get my blood tested once a year, follow your recomendations, feel great, Lost weight, high energy, keto, intermitent fasting, I appareciate so much your teaching and my learning 😊. You have been a great influence on my health!
@@debiwillis9045 I have found that keto diet is really jealous, you have to be really careful about carbohydrates you eat, there are in almost everything, maybe except for oil, and you have to keep it going, Dr Ekbert in some of his videos says that there are bodies which in three months get cetosis but there are others which could required, on the extreme, even a year sometimes, if you choose keto diet you have to be consistent for the long term and measure as much as you can. Wish you success!!!
I told my doctor to run the test he said no I said please do it I asked him couple of times he said he was gonna report me to the FBI and Homeland security Still can’t get it
Thank You @sarwarhussain1309 so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel and and helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
Before I found out that I had Graves disease , I went to the hospital because I had a sinus infection and my temperature was 105 and they thought I had pneumonia so they put me in isolation and I told the Dr what I thought I had the test came back no pneumonia but I have sinusitis. A few months down the road my primary doctor asked me if I had thyroid disease I said not that I know of she said the blood test look abnormal. But during that time it was so terrible I was so hot couldn't take it , I was speedy Gonzalez everything I ate took me to the bathroom I was losing weight and then when I had my check up my Dr said she's going to send me to an endocrinologist because my blood levels are off. They did all kind of tests and that's whenI found out that I had Graves disease and I'm very happy because I could have had a lot of problems down the road. So now I'm an advocate for myself I always ask my primary doctor what is my CBC etc. I'm now hypothyroid and I take a pill evey morning.
I love your videos even tho my attention span sometimes doesn't last as long as they do. I just took my 72 yo Mom for her yearly checkup and literally had to tell doctor what blood tests to do. This is after I told the doctor all the symptoms my Mom has: she has pretty much all symptoms of hypothyroid but in the last 5 months she lost so much hair that if it continues she'll be bold in a few month. Doctor didn't seem concern at all. Her blood test shows her ferritin at 26, lower than it was before bur Dr. said it's in range, and her red blood cells are enlarged. They only tested her TSH which came at 3.66 (it was closer to 5 year ago) so again, Dr. said its in range and no thyroid issues. What really bothers me is that the Dr. didn't seem interested in addressing the symptoms at all; oh hey, you'll be bold in a few months and you're always freezing but its all ok because your test shows you're "in range".
Your mom is so lucky to have you. Alot of people are too busy in the day to day life that they don't have time to care about diving in deep to their parents health issues. When in actuality we, as their children, should be more concerned about our parents than ourselves. God Bless you, I'll say a prayer for your mom. I'm starting to loose my hair and it's devastating 😢.
@@maryfolks9368 Thank you Mary! My Mom's blood work came back and her ferritin is low and her B12 could be better too. I've been suspecting for awhile that she might be anemic but didn't really look much into it until now. One of the side effects of it is hair loss. Low B12 could cause anemia too. Please check those if you can. Personally, I noticed that my hair doesn't fa out as much when I take zinc. I also started taking some thyroid supplements (by 1Body) and noticed more new hair growth. I put my mom on it too but it's too soon to tell if it's making any difference for her. Often times it's not even the lack of supplements but rather our body ability to absorb it. We need strong stomach acid and healthy liver, and unfortunately both of these get weaker as we age. Taking Apple Cider Vinegar can help with stomach acid (2tbs in a glass of water, or Betain Hydrochloric Acid supplements is what I take), but if you take ACV with water, make sure to use straw to drink it as it can affect your teeth. I wish you all the best and hope you find a cause and solution for your hair loss!

@@drekberg ok, :-) that's great Regarding the giveaway, but i want a spot on the blood work course, and i am ready to pay for it, but the link does not work, i tried from 2 laptops, 4 different web browsers and my cellphone, is there an other way to give you payment information?

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.
@@Pennygirl99In the free state of Florida, you can order your own blood tests and take charge of your own health. In New York, you will submit to the commies running the state, including the witch doctors. You are NOT ALLOWED as the 'state' knows what's best for you.
Every state is different.
You get a c peptide without your doctor?????
I dont trust doctors especially Kaiser. I do my own blood work through labcorp. Very cheap. Recently did a Lipase test for pancreatic health because I have high triglycerides. Doctors just want to see you when you're already screwed up so they can give you drugs. Prevention is the key.
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 😊
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?
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!
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.
I can only dream this Dr. Gets to do my blood test.
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.
Best Doctor Ever if not the best, I want Dr.Ekberg to be my personal Doctor,
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.
Everyone should have a health check up at least once a year regardless of age or fitness.
Agreed and every 6 months if you have chronic conditions
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
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
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.
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.
Pay for it yrself. It is your health. It is yr life.
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..
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.
Please keep doing what you are doing. People want quick fixes and info. I commit dedicated time to listen and take notes. The detail and methodical delivery of information is more than anyone getting FREE information could ever PRAY for!
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.
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. 🙏 🏆 😄
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 went to my doctor today to request blood work that included my insulin level and magnesium among other things and was told that it was useless to know those numbers! I’m looking for another doctor!
I wish I had a doctor like you!
Thank you, Dr. Ekberg, for all that you do. With all the good doctors on YT, they still cannot agree on many things. So much conflicting information out there. It is really hard for the average person to know what to do. Most of the PCP's have the worst information and don't really seem to care. I guess you have to pick a few doctors on YT and go with them. Dr. Ekberg is one of my go to doctors for information.
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.
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.
Hello dr. Ekberg, I discovered your channel or teachings a year ago and I must say it's really amazing. I have hypothyroidism and refused to be put to statin, when I asked the doctor for how long I will take them and she said for life. I developed a small goiter and I discovered from one of your video that my thyroid are not sick but looking for iodine. Through intermittent fasting I have reduced weight and become fat adaptive. Your teachings are great and hope many people will be rebelated through it. I am a clinical nurse and refer many patients to watch your videos. Thanks again
Hi Jane, can i kwon pratically what you did? I’m also hypo thyroidy. Kenya is lovely as country!!! I was there for five yrs.
@@nhabinezabudara8797 hi I take a glass of salty water every morning waiting to do the blood test and see whether it improves. I stopped using Maggie in food and use natural salt. Wish you all the best.
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.
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.
Love to hear your addressing as “Hello! Health Champion!” 😅
It’s really inspiring! 😁
Ekberg you are the BEST explainer and common sense Man on the entire Internet! I sure wish you were my doctor! Great job young man!!!!❤
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.
Yikes, my Ferritin level came back at 454! The doctor actually said it is normal. It is super high! You said liver and pancreas would be the first to be damaged. My mother died of pancreatic cancer. How do I find a doctor that thinks more like you do?
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.
I'm so excited you are doing this course at all..I am in tears watching this. I tried to geg help at my doctor and got fat shamed as he tried pushing a weight loss pill. As I told him I was eating keto with no weight loss he just told me I wasn't trying hard enogh and needed to get more serious...I'm litterally mortified to think about going to the doctor for "anything at all".
some stated she "ate like a snake" IOW... one big meal a day , then fasting...i think
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....
You are a class act all the way. Thank you for all you do.
You are welcome @charlesbraumberger6681. Thank you for watching. 😄
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. 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 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.
I’m becoming a health Champion.
Measure for health, not for disease 👍
Thank You @andreasplattner2707.😀
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.
Well done!
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...
Dr. Sten Ekberg has truly given out some of the most important information there is. THANK YOU
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.
Thank you Dr Ekberg, now I know what further tests that I need to be more educated about whats going on in my body!
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.😄
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. 😀
Extremely informative & thought provoking !!!! Truly a public service !!!!
You have helped me to increase my health so very much and I will be forever grateful for you!! I told my wife that I wish I could meet with you just before you announced the contest!

Thank you @lilredford5. I really appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.😄
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.
Why I have to wait till I will have a very bad stage of some illness 😤It is much better to prevent 👍Anyway,we know it is good to have a good lifestyle 😀Thank you so very much Dr.Ekberg🌈🌹Wish to be my go👍✌️
My GP😀
Watched this episode two times for it's importance. 👍👍👍
Thanks!
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!
You are a healthcare SAINT!
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.
The last thing drs want is questioning informed patients.
God bless you Dr. Ekberg. You are a life saver for millions of people all over the world now. You should go ahead with your mission and passion for better health. I want you to change our present sick care system. Thank you very much for your dedication.
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...
This doctor explain like no other doctor has explained to me before 😳👏
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.
Loved that last part...change the paradigm.
As I watch this video, I am going back and forth to my daughter’s blood work results. She(17 yo) has been sick and not able to function well, yet everytime bloodwork comes back, they say she is fine🤷♀️. This video helped me to analyze some situations that may be affecting(effecting?) her health. Thank you for the work you do and the knowledge you share. Much appreciated
It's our food making everyone sick ... my daughter is only 21 and sick all the time ... enough is enough you must study nutrition & if able try to go to a functional medicine Dr. Who can help with whole food supplements & nutrition. Conventional medicine just keeps you sick I know this is fact they did it to me with my thyroid .
I like my doctor, but it is clear that he doesn't have the time or knowledge to examine bloodwork with this amount of care. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for an invaluable education! Stay awesome!
My doctor looks over my bloodwork, but he doesn't really take the time to talk about it. He just tells me that I'm healthy. I take a med for blood pressure. Luckily where I get my bloodwork done, they give me online access to the information the doctor is looking at.
Yes, this is much needed! Thank you Dr. Sten!
Thank you @RebirthLB for letting me know. I really appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.😄
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
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!
Please release a 10h video. Like USA, UK NHS medics perform basic blood tests. I do my utmost to maintain my health. Thanks very much 😊
Dr Ekberg, thank you for this video. I know it required a lot of research. It is appreciated
dr. Ekberg:
i am canadian . live in vancouver. you are the best doc. i will trust and follow. like to have visit your clinic . where is your clinic.. i like to bring my husband to let you have a check on his blood. all doc here all typical. thanks you in advance to reply to me. we are in early 80, not on any medication at all. follow all the do and donts all our life.
Please do a video on peri and menopause in terms of hormones
I see it like this Doctor, if I'm dead it's to late to get me fixed. So I get me checked for my future comings. People say to me, you are always at the Doctors. First of all it's none of their business and then I ask them when was the last time they been to a doctor and they can't even answer. I gets it all checked on vacation and on my days off, I make an appointment ears, nose, throat etc etc etc. Get things checked before their are future problems that you can catch now. I hate going to the Doctors just like my father, but he died at 89 and he would be still here if he went on the regular like he was supposed to. Keep keeping us alive Doc.
Hwllo Dr. Sten Ekberg. I was diagnosed with diabetes in the month of Septermber 2022. My HbA1C was 14 and my Extra fasting sugar (after 14 hrs) was 277. I was shattered and when consulted a doctor, was advised to start medication. However, I was not willing to take medicine and somewhere believed that diet should be able to help control my Sugar levels even though I did not have any idea how. It was just an intuition and then I started searching the TH-cam for some guidance. And as fate would have it, to my good luck I started watching your videos and learning more about Insulin Resistance and more importantly what causes it and how can it be controlled. I have been following you ever since and I see your videos regualarly for 1 hour atleast everyday. I have made certain changes in my diet and also started moderate exercise(1 hr walking). After 2 and a half months my Fasting FLucose is around 100 and my PP is around 170. Though these are not ideal levels, with your guidance I have developed the confidence that I can reverse my insulin resistance with persistence and discipline. Your videos are the best quality in terms of content and also presentation. May God bless you and give you energy to change millions of lives all across the world. Thank you so much!!!!
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!
Learned so much from your videos! I wrote down all these tests so I can tell my Dr for these blood work! Thank you!
Thank you, Dr. Ekberg, for all the awesome work you do to help us.

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
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
Highlands of Scotland....lucky to get a GP appointment let alone any of this stuff (ie CAC scan, blood tests etc)
I highly recommend ordering Dr. Ekberg's blood course. He has such a knack for explaining something as complicated as our bodies in an understandable way. His presentations are the best on TH-cam. Plus, the course is always available to you for future reference.
Our bodies aren't complicated, they're (wonderfully) complex. Complicated is a mess of disorganized parts thrown together.
@@foreverseethe Good point! I agree 100%
I’ve been watching you for 3 years and have learned a lot. 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.
Thank you. I want to do better. Knowledge is health.
Doc, I would watch a 10-hour video - or series - outlining anything you have to teach, in a heart beat! Snälla du? ❤
Then pony up some BIG bucks. It ain't free .. it ain't cheap! I really thought he was going to be different than the rest of them.
I guess TH-cam views aren't paying enough.
@@delinquense 🤣😂😅 The kicker is that I live in Mexico, and I only earn pesos, amigo! 🇲🇽
That was funny! TH-cam doesn't pay much, and they "down regulate" all of my videos for speaking to much truth. 🥩💪😁👍🥓🍳
@@thomashughes4859 too funny. I'm in PVR right now on vacation. Yes, that's a lot of pesos. I can afford it easily but probably won't participate for that reason. If he was truly trying to help, this would be free. He's no different from the rest; I had high expectations for him. It's all about greed. Yes, he should be compensated for his efforts, but he doesn't need this extra income.
I'm sure youll agree. Mexico needs good health advice more than most any country I have visited. Nutrition is abominable here... though food is delicious. Its the land of sugar and carbohydrate. It's such a huge part of the culture it would be difficult to change.
@@delinquense 👍
I have learned si much by following your channel, I get my blood tested once a year, follow your recomendations, feel great, Lost weight, high energy, keto, intermitent fasting, I appareciate so much your teaching and my learning 😊. You have been a great influence on my health!
Why doesn't this work fir me? I feel horrible, get bloated and gain Weight!
@@debiwillis9045 I have found that keto diet is really jealous, you have to be really careful about carbohydrates you eat, there are in almost everything, maybe except for oil, and you have to keep it going, Dr Ekbert in some of his videos says that there are bodies which in three months get cetosis but there are others which could required, on the extreme, even a year sometimes, if you choose keto diet you have to be consistent for the long term and measure as much as you can. Wish you success!!!
Thank you.
You are welcome @bhavanasureshstephen9040. Thank you for watching. 😄

Thanks!
Thank You @sarwarhussain1309 so much for showing your appreciation and supporting the channel and and helping me get the message of health out to the world. 🙏 🏆 😄
Before I found out that I had Graves disease , I went to the hospital because I had a sinus infection and my temperature was 105 and they thought I had pneumonia so they put me in isolation and I told the Dr what I thought I had the test came back no pneumonia but I have sinusitis. A few months down the road my primary doctor asked me if I had thyroid disease I said not that I know of she said the blood test look abnormal. But during that time it was so terrible I was so hot couldn't take it , I was speedy Gonzalez everything I ate took me to the bathroom I was losing weight and then when I had my check up my Dr said she's going to send me to an endocrinologist because my blood levels are off. They did all kind of tests and that's whenI found out that I had Graves disease and I'm very happy because I could have had a lot of problems down the road. So now I'm an advocate for myself I always ask my primary doctor what is my CBC etc. I'm now hypothyroid and I take a pill evey morning.
Thank You @antoniawalk2005. That would have shown right away as a low TSH/high T4. Glad you figured it out though. 😀
👍
Thanks!
I love your videos even tho my attention span sometimes doesn't last as long as they do. I just took my 72 yo Mom for her yearly checkup and literally had to tell doctor what blood tests to do. This is after I told the doctor all the symptoms my Mom has: she has pretty much all symptoms of hypothyroid but in the last 5 months she lost so much hair that if it continues she'll be bold in a few month. Doctor didn't seem concern at all. Her blood test shows her ferritin at 26, lower than it was before bur Dr. said it's in range, and her red blood cells are enlarged. They only tested her TSH which came at 3.66 (it was closer to 5 year ago) so again, Dr. said its in range and no thyroid issues.
What really bothers me is that the Dr. didn't seem interested in addressing the symptoms at all; oh hey, you'll be bold in a few months and you're always freezing but its all ok because your test shows you're "in range".
Your mom is so lucky to have you. Alot of people are too busy in the day to day life that they don't have time to care about diving in deep to their parents health issues. When in actuality we, as their children, should be more concerned about our parents than ourselves. God Bless you, I'll say a prayer for your mom. I'm starting to loose my hair and it's devastating 😢.
@@maryfolks9368 Thank you Mary! My Mom's blood work came back and her ferritin is low and her B12 could be better too. I've been suspecting for awhile that she might be anemic but didn't really look much into it until now. One of the side effects of it is hair loss. Low B12 could cause anemia too. Please check those if you can.
Personally, I noticed that my hair doesn't fa out as much when I take zinc. I also started taking some thyroid supplements (by 1Body) and noticed more new hair growth. I put my mom on it too but it's too soon to tell if it's making any difference for her.
Often times it's not even the lack of supplements but rather our body ability to absorb it. We need strong stomach acid and healthy liver, and unfortunately both of these get weaker as we age. Taking Apple Cider Vinegar can help with stomach acid (2tbs in a glass of water, or Betain Hydrochloric Acid supplements is what I take), but if you take ACV with water, make sure to use straw to drink it as it can affect your teeth.
I wish you all the best and hope you find a cause and solution for your hair loss!
@@Bambina336 🤗, thank you 😊
In range is so much different than optimal. She sounds classically hypothyroid. Find a better doctor.
