Commonly known symptoms of zinc deficiency: • Loss of smell • Dwarfism • Susceptibility to infection • Hair loss or thinning hair • Diarrhea • Dermatitis • Mental irritability or fatigue Lesser-known symptoms of zinc deficiency: 1. Lack of taste (bland, metallic, or bitter-tasting food) 2. Inability to detect flavors 3. Hypogonadism 4. Impaired hippocampus (memory problems, inability to learn, and problems with spatial location) 5. Infected nail beds, weak nails, white spots or white lines on the nails 6. Delayed healing 7. Night blindness Refined carbs deplete zinc Thank you Dr Berg! 🐱👍🏿
I swear this man has a microphone link to my phone and brain. I just bought zinc carnosine 12 hours ago and whenever I think of an issue or a supplement I wake up the next morning with a new dr Berg Video on that same topic. I’ll say I’m not complaining. At least it’s not social media adds haha!
*This is why **_authentic_** sourdough/leaven bread is superior to the typical industrial fast-ferment bread that modern man typically consumes!* The phytic acid within grains needs time to "mature". And that is what the slow-paced sourdough fermentation process accomplishes. Authentic leavened bread will often be left overnight in fairly cool temperature to give the phytic acid time to absorb the minerals within the grain. This will not only prevent the phytic acid from demineralizing your body, but will actually make the minerals within the grain *available* to the body. In other words, fast-fermented bread will deplete your minerals, while *authentic* sourdough bread will *provide* minerals. Very important distinction!
Night blindness. Omg. I keep telling the optician this and for years no one believes me when I say I can't see much in the evenings until I wake up in the morning. This is an eye opener. I have been losing so much hair to the point that my scalp shows and the doctors say my bloods are fine. I'm taking Zinc to see if this improves!
I was having blood sugar issues. I would get all the symptoms of low blood sugar if i didnt consume carbs and 2 A1C fasting tests showed a "slight" issue. Dr told me i was crazy and refused to speak about it as the test showed it was not bad. I learned how to manage blood sugar and all the mechanisms of it from this channel. I had always been overweight my entire life, following his advice a few months i was symptom free and 60 lbs lighter
I have many of those symptoms loss of smell taste loss of hair and start to get the nail issues thank you for putting up this information THANK YOU ☮️♥️
@@Drberg i have severe zinc deficiency, my white blood cells are showing it, i took everything but only Zinc made them increase. I´m also fatigued (idk if its from zinc deficiency) and i also have briddl hair plus too less thyroid hormones. Currently with NDT even less than before without anything! Also i have seborrheic dermatitis. My question is how much mg zinc should i take daily to get rid of my deficency and problems as fast as i can? And will taking zinc depleate something different?
As always brilliant Dr Berg, I've learned more from you than nursery school. Thank you so much for all your podcasts, always interested to learn more from you.
Binge watching all your videos for nearly 2 weeks now. Really awesome information. There is only one thing I would wish for improvement. Could you use, when it comes to measurement, both systems in the future? Metric and Imperial?
@@seattlesix It's not about that. In many of his videos, he uses "cup" as measurement. For example, 1 or 1/2 a cup of blueberries. Outside of America, the world is using the metric system. When I now use Google to find out how much one American cup is, each result tells me something different, and it goes from like 120g up to 229g. That is a gigantic difference.
For any women watching - what’s so amazing about zinc is as dr berg says it increases testosterone in men, (but zinc knows what the body needs) so in women zinc can reduce testosterone and balance hormones! So if you’re like me and struggled with PCOS, hirsutism etc zinc can have an anti-androgen effect :)
As always thank you for always encouraging and enlightening us!! Such great information since people have been so concerned about post C 19 issues. I know you are really trying to help everyone!! I am a nurse and we must encourage people to partake in healthy eating and exercise, as well as fasting, sunshine , and paying attention to what our body needs naturally!! ♥️ Thank you!!
I used zinc carnosine 6 months ago and I could smell anything I looked at across a room. Felt as if I had the smelling ability of a dog. My strength also increased substantially. 9 pull ups easily. When I stoped using zinc carnosine I quickly faded to 2 pull-ups.

Dr. Berg, this is completely off topic but can you please do a video on air fryers and if they are a healthier option to use compared to deep frying. Would really love to get your opinion on this topic
i can understand the issue of inability to learn because for two years i could not concentrate to read any academic work and even suffered depression. however now i started with zinc supplement, i noticed that i can now once again solve and learn complex maths and physics.
I think this could be caused by a serious lack of copper. See Dr Berg’s videos on symptoms for lack of copper. You may want to see if eating beef liver may help you.

You may have found your answer by now but Oysters and Red Meat are good for Zinc. Zinc from animal sources are most easily absorbed by the body. Personally I’m trying to limit animal products but finding some basic nutrients like Zinc hard to build into my diet. Nuts are a good source but not as good as meat. Good luck 👍
@robertgroves8691 Thank you for the information, fresh oysters are not available in myregion and i dont prefer eating red meat. Nuts sounds good. I try to find more suitable option for me.
@ my pleasure. Sounds like our diets are pretty similar. My personal struggle with nuts is they are so nutritionally dense that they pile in the calories. Probably not a problem for you, but I’m trying to lose weight so I’m limiting myself to 30g nuts a day at the moment. Thankfully I can use zinc supplements but I wish I could find a better wholefood source, as I really prefer to avoid supplements whenever possible. Best of luck and appreciate your kind reply. 😃
Dr. Berg, could you do a deep dive on how certain toxins can connect to cell membrane receptors and block nutrients from getting into the cell. I believe that this happens with zinc being blocked leading to hair loss and possibly hypothyroidism.
He said, it’s more important to have any zinc than worrying about having the best zinc. He also mentioned zinc picolinate among other types. His zinc / trace minerals helps me greatly.

When ppl said lack of taste and smell was a sign of c0vld, I knew it was a zinc deficiency. The body uses zinc to fight viruses. If you already have a subclinical deficiency, then fighting the illness will deplete you fast. We've all had colds/viruses growing up where we knew things didn't taste right "right now" because "I'm sick", but msm framed what we had already experienced during sicknesses as something new, and then used it as a fear tactic. If more ppl understood what nutrients the body uses to fight illness, then they'd understand "long c0vld" too. It's just multiple deficiencies at once in those that don't properly nourish the body to begin with.
dear sir, my question below. With 5 separate fasting's and now 10 days into this fasting with no side effects, no food, no hunger or cravings, reasonable sleep and weight loss of at least 1kg every 2 days. What more would you recommend to me to trigger autophagy. cheers
Yes, HIIT exercise will help. But you might experience reduced metabolism if you fast so long without moving, your body will conserve energy and slow down everything, also turn off sexual interest etc. Consider fasting for 3/4 days then eat for a while, there is a law of diminishing returns at play.
Hi. This is Erin. Is vitamin B2 the best migraine vitamin? I’ve been told to take vitamin B2, 200 mg a day by my neurologist. I also take once monthly Ajovy.

Thanks Dr Berg, another great video! I'm new to your channel, and am loving everything you create (working my way through past videos). I hate to complain, but if I may ask, could you please increase the volume on your audio recording? I have to max out the volume to hear your great speech - so when the ads come up as I binge your series, I almost go deaf. Please no offense intended, thank you again!
Hi Dr. Berg For some reason I cannot take a zinc, feels like I cannot digest it, I get pain in my stomach What should I do ? I hope I hear from you … Thank you, Teodora
Copper as the earlier commenter said. You may want to use a nutrients app to see your ratio of zinc to copper. Also, some of Dr Berg’s videos on zinc vs copper are important.
Interesting, I’ve been experiencing a lack of smell for the longest of time now. Don’t think it’s because of a lack of zinc though judged on the symptoms described. Have a nice day Dr Berg 👋🏼
When I was sick with Covit I lost the sense of smell and taste for few months. Then I started taking B complex vitamins and zinc to boost my immunity and the problem was gone few weeks later. Thank God I am back to normal. I can smell and taste like I did before.
Dr Berg please help me. I have an elongated uvula that has caused me severe sleep issues for as long as I can remember. I've been to THREE sleep specialists, and all of them insisted I be on C-PAP, despite me telling them that it never works. The only option they offered me was to cut the uvula out, but I read that you don't want to do that. But I can't find a natural remedy for this. Can you please point me in the right direction?

Wow! Thanks for sharing! I have a long list of chronic illnesses (23 total). I have systemic lupus and rheumatoid arthritis among others, and when I started getting swelling/puffiness around my fingers I started bugging my Rheumatologist about it. She examined me and told me that she doesn't think it's Rheumatological or autoimmune (I'm also having pain/stiffness in my hands, but that IS likely the RA). Maybe I should get my zinc levels examined! Definitely checking it out! :)
Maybe you should stop taking crappy, allopathic (drug-pushing) advice from your "MD" and take control of your own health through use of appropriate supplements! Doctors love your type of patient: NO cures, just disease management through side-effect-inducing artificial DRUGS! After all, a patient cured is a customer lost! If COVID should have taught the vast majority of people anything, it's that those allopathic(drug-pushing) MD's cannot be trusted with our health!

Zinc pill in the morning on an empty stomach is immediately painful for me. So knowing how and when to take the zinc pill seems most important.
Take your zinc with food. It takes stomach acid to asorb zinc, take it after eating half of your meal.

Does it work if I just chew on a zinc gluconate pill and check if I can taste it? I would be very thankful for a response
What time of day is it best to consume zinc supplements?
Any time.
Hi, where do you find the zinc test?
Where can we purchase the zinc deficiency test?
Dr. Berg, all of your videos are so helpful to me. Your advice is sound and you are a blessing.
Glad to help!
Thanks Dr Berg, another great video! I'm new to your channel, and am loving everything you create (working my way through past videos). I hate to complain, but if I may ask, could you please increase the volume on your audio recording? I have to max out the volume to hear your great speech - so when the ads come up as I binge your series, I almost go deaf. Please no offense intended, thank you again!
Hello. We will suggest this to our video editors. Thanks.

Thank you,
Teodora

Hey, which zinc product is best for you to take? Anyone have a answer on this 🤔

Good stuff to know Doc.

Hi, I'm from India, if I want to get any of your supplements, from where can I purchase them online?
His reseller in Dubai should be the simplest.
Dr Berg can you talk about enzymes to use for people on keto/fat/carnivore diet ? I always love your valuable lessons. Thank you
Yes. Some of his recent videos on the gallbladder and on the pancreas especially, I found particularly interesting.
@@helenevion5948 he talked about digestive and systemic enzymes ?
Does anyone know of a good brand of zinc or will any kind due? And how much.
How much dose in zinc deficiency? And what form?
Hello dr berg thank you for sharing this vedio very interesting😊
You're welcome! Glad you liked it!
Many thanks.
You're very welcome.
Good list to look out for, I might add a greater rate of prostrate issues with low zinc.
Is there another nutrient that Zinc needs to work, similar to K2 and D3?
copper
Copper as the earlier commenter said. You may want to use a nutrients app to see your ratio of zinc to copper. Also, some of Dr Berg’s videos on zinc vs copper are important.
Which type of zinc should I take? Do you have a video on this?
Where do I buy a zinc test?
Thank you Dr Berg for sharing your absolute brilliant information to keep us all healthy the natural way. ❤
It's nothing. Happy to help you all.
Interesting, I’ve been experiencing a lack of smell for the longest of time now. Don’t think it’s because of a lack of zinc though judged on the symptoms described. Have a nice day Dr Berg 👋🏼
same here
When I was sick with Covit I lost the sense of smell and taste for few months. Then I started taking B complex vitamins and zinc to boost my immunity and the problem was gone few weeks later. Thank God I am back to normal. I can smell and taste like I did before.
@@Chris-lf9dl how much Zinc did you take?
@@Chris-lf9dl thank you , I will try that
Some of his videos on smell / nose issues issues may be of interest.
Dr Berg please help me. I have an elongated uvula that has caused me severe sleep issues for as long as I can remember. I've been to THREE sleep specialists, and all of them insisted I be on C-PAP, despite me telling them that it never works. The only option they offered me was to cut the uvula out, but I read that you don't want to do that. But I can't find a natural remedy for this. Can you please point me in the right direction?
May I ask if you are doing healthy keto and intermittent fasting?
If so, you may want to call him on his Friday show and provide short details on what you are doing on these two protocols.
Hello doctor,
Am mother of 16 months old baby boy. My baby's urine diaper turns black when dried up. Doctor suspects he has alkaptonuria😢 please explain about this disease 😢 you and your videos have always been my life saviour. Kindly help my baby. Eagerly waiting for your video. Thank you doctor.
Some of Dr Berg’s videos on breastfeeding and on babies nutrition may help.
thank you dr.
You're very welcome.
Hi dr Berg, do you spit out the zinc for the test?
Are zinc supplements safe for people prone to developing kidney stones?...
I'm glad your smart husband he has alot of Sinuses issue! Wow!
My sister is going through experimental cancer treatment. She has issue with taste.
Some of the other Dr Berg’s videos on taste and on cancer may help.
Beautiful work as ever...... Dr Berg . Appreciation and blessings from Australia .
what should i like for when buying zinc? ingredients wise
His trace minerals help me most efficiently. But see his videos on zinc vs copper. 😊
Thankyou for you hard work and knowledge Dr. Berg!
Tips on looking for the best Zinc option to buy out of so many?
Dr Berg’s zinc / trace minerals is great. He sometimes mentions specific types of zinc in some of his videos though too.
First of all big thanks to you. You are one of the very few who really goes into detail.
can you do a video about whey proteon powder?
thx
As covered in these videos : www.youtube.com/@DrEricBergDC/search?query=%20whey TL;DR not a good choice.
Hi dr berg. I have slow metabolism and low Testosterone levels. Can i take collagen supplements for better skin hair and body repairment
No need. Some of his videos on testosterone, on skin and on hair and on body repair may help much more.
@ Dr. Berg ,Please suggest how to diagnose/reverse from pancreatitis ?
Some of his videos on pancreatitis and on the pancreas may help.
Wow! Thanks for sharing! I have a long list of chronic illnesses (23 total). I have systemic lupus and rheumatoid arthritis among others, and when I started getting swelling/puffiness around my fingers I started bugging my Rheumatologist about it. She examined me and told me that she doesn't think it's Rheumatological or autoimmune (I'm also having pain/stiffness in my hands, but that IS likely the RA). Maybe I should get my zinc levels examined! Definitely checking it out! :)
Maybe you should stop taking crappy, allopathic (drug-pushing) advice from your "MD" and take control of your own health through use of appropriate supplements! Doctors love your type of patient: NO cures, just disease management through side-effect-inducing artificial DRUGS! After all, a patient cured is a customer lost!
If COVID should have taught the vast majority of people anything, it's that those allopathic(drug-pushing) MD's cannot be trusted with our health!
Feedback since then?
@@helenevion5948 None yet, because I have had to manage more urgent medical things this week. It's on my list to research and try! :)
@@WarriorQueen1993 Ok! Best of luck! And remember, we are immortal. We just need more knowledge on health!
its hard to test for this just so you know. there is no Functional Storage for Zinc so you must get it daily in food or supplement.
Is that okay to take Zinc supplements?
Are they healthy and have no side effects?
Hello. Yes, that's fine. Just make sure to get non-synthetic supplements. You can also get zinc from foods: www.youtube.com/@DrEricBergDC/search?query=zinc%20food

@@Drberg thank you, Dr
Dr.Berg can you please make a video related to the supplement can help with the fallopian tube blockage
I think he made videos on the Fallopian tube. If not, you may want to call him on his Friday show.
Thank you. Super important info!
I hope that helps!
