Why do people love bread so much? There is a huge push to get everyone to consume more grains. But, the problem is that we're already consuming too many grains.
Grains have been made to seem very healthy, and we're told to consume grains as a foundation of our diet. But, grains can actually cause a lot of problems for your health. Today we're going to talk about just one of these major problems.
Gluten is the protein in a lot of grains. It's a term to describe various proteins within this category. One of these proteins can actually create an opioid effect.
There is a huge problem with opioid addiction around the world. One thing an opioid will do is increase endorphins. Endorphins help decrease pain and make us feel good.
Exorphins are endorphins that can be triggered by food. This stimulation of exorphins is why you like bread so much. But, this comes with other potential things like celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
Celiac disease is a severe reaction to gluten. The top symptoms of celiac disease can include:
1. Diarrhea
2. Bloating
3. Abdominal pain
Non-celiac gluten sensitivity is basically celiac disease but without the classic symptoms. Symptoms of non-celiac gluten sensitivity can include:
• ADD
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Autism
• Schizophrenia
• Inflammation
• Atrophy
• Permeability
• Malabsorption
• Deficiencies
• Insomnia
• Fatigue
• Brain fog
• Autoimmune conditions
• Anemia
• GERD
• Headaches and migraines
• Dermatitis
• Psoriasis
I want to challenge you to avoid eating bread and other grains for just one week. Then go back to eating bread and grains and compare how you feel to the previous week when you weren't consuming grains. Then decide whether or not it's worth giving up grains.

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you better understand why you should avoid bread and other grains. I'll see you in the next video.
I dont know what to eat anymore

Start with nothing processed
Keep watching Dr Berg if you want to know.

I stopped eating bread for a year.... I felt fantastic.... starting again for two months straight... I feel tired, fall asleep in the afternoon, feel bloated, fat around the waist, you name it. I am off again tomorrow. Dr. Berg is absolutely right.
@@salut9658we enjoy a lot of things we shouldn’t be eating 🙄
What if you make your own bread??
I am French. Bread was always a drug for me. This video described 100% what my problem was. I stopped eating Gluten in November 2020. My life changed, more energy, no longer long time in the toilets, no pain in the belly. I miss bread. I don't miss suffering. Thanks Dr Berg.
Glad to know you are in better health condition. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Make your own bread.
Do almond bread, flaxseed, or even yogurt bread (which is very good)
@@Drberg hi Dr Berg. Everey kind of bread is bad for our health?
Dr Berg: "OK now, what is gluten?"
Bobby Boo-SHAY: "Momma said Gluten is the DEVIL"

@@caluggero Then there's nothing left for me to eat. wtf.
I’m going on my second week without eating bread or gluten. I feel amazing! I look noticeably less bloated, my skin is so clear and glowing, my face is depuffed, and I feel so amazing! I am going to try to eliminate gluten or bread completely! For reference I am 27 years old. Thank you Dr. Berg!
Really Chirstina. What you eat then? How do you handle hunger and cravings? Help me please.
@@rosarosani8552 Meat, dairy, vegetables, nuts
DePuffed!? nice.. ✨🤔✨
I like the word "depuffed". I've now added it to my vocabulary.
I would love to knew what you eat then and how long you can without ?
Stopped eating bread and gluten related last month. Lost 2 kilos, brain fog went away, mood improved, and joint pain subsided immensely.
And you exercise very little.
Без глютена ,глюкозы,фруктозы, 6 месяцев: прошли парализующие боли в позвоночнике,окаменение суставов,варикоз,перхоть,отдышка,мигрень,инсулиновый живот,за первые 2 месяца -13 кг!!!😉👍👍👍
What's your alternative to bread after you eliminate it?
@@zekekasichiro-smith4725 Just eat real unprocessed food. Meat, vegetables and fruit. No-one needs bread.
@@user-tg2mx8hi1p that’s fantastic my friend, stay strong 💪🏻 🙏🏻
After suffering from various problems with my digestive system, I tried a gluten-free diet. Everything has improved tremendously.
Help me please cuz im a bit lost in this topic mostly due to translation problems and hard to keep up with everything heard, so all symptoms listed above(in video) comes from gluten of any type or strickly whats in wheat so in breads? Hows pastas like durum? Cuz he said avoid bread cuz gluten but also said avoid grains(as a week challenge) but theres naturally gluten free ones like buckwheat why avoid that ? Im lost someone brighten me up please
This wasn't clear for me in this video too. But I only stay away from gluten but I eat rice for example. Most of the time I eat noodles and pasta made from lentils, carrots and rice.
It’s so funny how bread or flour in general is so demonized here in the US. But in European countries they eat pastries and bread often and the obesity rate is way lower than America. He should be talking about the bad quality of flour being sold here in the US. It’s filled with chemicals which is harmful to us. I find that when I eat flour from France or Italy, I do not get bloated and I feel fine.
is bread demonized over there? that's dumb.
Americans over indulge as well…. In Europe it’s treated as a treat…
I guess this would also refer to pasta… but as it was mentioned the quality of flour is terrible….
The bread jn europe has lesser preservatives thats why it taste terrible n needs butter. I wonder if there is relevance.
In America most bread has sugar in it which is so shocking to me. The Subway sandwich chain had to pay a different tax in Europe as their bread had so much sugar in it the tax authorities declared that it’s not bread, but cake!!
I have started 16/8 intermittent fasting 4 days ago and it's going easier than I thought. I go with KETO and dropped grains and sugar as well. I can not tell you how much better I feel already. I am sleeping better, I don't get tired, and I workout daily for 45 minutes. Looking forward to sharing more later.
Working out daily for 45 minutes will do that.
I mean if you’re doing keto you have to drop grains and and sugar lol that’s what keto is
I had to stop eating bread 10-12 years ago. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Disease and my doctor suggested I stop eating gluten. I was having a lot of intestinal problems, so I listened to him. My problems went away! The couple of times I cheated I paid for it. I moved to Poland 9 years ago. They have beautiful baked goods and tasty beer. I have learned not to cheat 2-3 days in a row. I can periodically drink a beer and once every couple of years I will eat a pączki, a filled Polish donut. But otherwise I behave. The pain, cramping and diarrhea are not worth it.
So what do you eat for breakfast and lunch ??
🤣 I behaved. Good for you. Keep up.
Mmm a donut, havent had 1 in a min
what part of Poland did you go
It’s funny you should mention the polish baked goods. My son who is on the Keto diet and is pretty strict with it. Started dating a Polish girl. He started coming home with these donuts but all i could see he took one big bite out if it but didn’t finish. He lifts weights, where she is overweight. He introduced her to Keto and she did lose some pounds but she lives with her Polish parents so the temptations are there constantly. I am from Czech but stopped cooking all these ethnic specialties as i know they are not healthy. I eat more Keto type food. Totally eliminated bread and flour stuff while ago. It’s easier if the family is on the same page with their diet.
This is very accurate, many people can heal their ailments by not consuming grains. Grains/beer/pasta ect started becoming an issue with me in the middle 1990's. It slowly began to cause negative symptoms whenever I consumed grains. I was healthy, excersiced, ran 3 miles every morning until joint pain, irritated flaky skin, dandruff, bloated, upset stomach, severe acid reflux to the point where I developed Barretts Esophogus, was on Nexium over 10 years, developed high blood pressure, sleeplessness, headaches, irritability, depression. I was literally falling apart, lol. I stopped all grains/sugars. Within the first month 75% of ailments went away, the best part was the absence of joint pain, then my skin cleared up, then the brain fog went away, I had to slowly stop the Nexium, eventually all that healed over the first year. I was poisoning myself with food the, "pros" tell me to consume for health. I had to pretty much stop eating everything except fatty meats, liver, fish. Feel on top of the world now, no looking back, I don't need a study to prove my point, I healed myself with no help from the professionals. Many like me are finding this out.
Can u elaborate what you are eating?
@@DrTariqRamadan I consume the cheap hamburger, 70/30% , I eat beef roasts, steaks and fresh beef liver, heart,tounge. I eat sardines, mackerel, salmon from cans. All seafood/shellfish, chicken thighs,legs and liver. Hotdogs, vienna sausages, lunch meats, bacon, eggs. Use lard,bacon grease or olive oil for cooking. I do at times eat some cabbage,cauiliflower,cottage cheese,cheddar cheese,heavy cream,cream cheese, but must limit these things because I can feel negative side effects. I also implemented fasting, I fast 22 hours a day, usually eat 1 very large meal in the evening. Sometimes I fast longer periods to stimulate autophogy for healing.
It’s because their is pesticides in our grains called glyphosate. And it was bred to have higher gluten. You won’t have as bad side effects eating bread in Europe. Especially hand made pasta in Italy.
In this video he taught us the word ''healthwashing''. I also naively fell dupe for the hyped ''healthy'' dairy, legumes, pulses, tofu, high fructose fruit, grains, smoothies, & protein powders. I have been a chubby chump and a dupe for 65 years.
@@debbiec6216 Hi, thank you, I listed the foods I consume, the main thing I learned was that the gut biome must adjust to the change in diet. So consuming all the extra fat and protein before the good bacteria is established is sometimes discomforting, the acid in your stomach is very important to keep, it takes time to get off of the Nexiums and things. If you have these issues you listed, than u need to completely stop consuming any carbohydrates. A carb is sugar anyway you want to look at it, so any sugar you consume is like poring battery acid in your body, it demolishes our circulatory system, it is the driver for acid reflux and your immune system is always working doubletime to combat the effects of carbs. So reducing inflamation and allowing your body to heal is the goal, so learning to implement fasting into your life and eating only acceptable foods will rid yourself of chronic inflamation. It took over 6 months of eating only meat and fasting 22 hours a day before I was able to ween myself off of the Nexium. The digestive system heals slowly, however it is vital for our health because most of our immune system is in the gut. Good luck, I learned on my own what I could eat and what I couldnt, I learned how to heal myself by watching these types of videos and understanding why everything that I was ever taught about nutrition and my health were simply lies. Mentally this diet or change of life was challenging, not because of hunger, because I am never hungry on this diet, it is a social henderance at first if you are a lover of food. The cookouts,bday parties,holidays and passed down favorite recipes of loved ones are no longer the topic of excitement or conversation. I look at food now as a tool to my health and well being. Good luck, never stop researching in the low carb world. Explore food, cholesterol, insulin, anti-nutrients from plants, fasting.
I've had gluten related neurological disease for 12 years and didn't know it! Thankfully I found out and cut out all gluten. Absolute life changer! Peripheral neuropathy, eczema, joint pain, memory issues, difficulty speaking properly, and all kinds of other stuff... all gone!
Agree with you 💯. An older colleague told me try not to eat bread 🍞 , 6 years ago. I did not eat bread for a week and never been eating bread since then. I occasionally eat sourdough bread though. Thanks for sharing. You rock 🎸
I stopped eating gluten over 2 years ago. It helped me to lose 30 lbs and helped me improve my health drastically.
I love how you don’t force anything on the viewer but instead challenge them to see how they feel after a week with no grains. For me, eliminating grains and beginning keto and IF has been genuinely life changing and I can’t thank you enough Dr Berg! 🥑
A good health providers give you options.
@@deborahotanjah I feel like keto has an abundance of options. Sure starting out is usually very basic meals but it’s all about educating yourself to expand your options
Can I ask,what is IF?....as I'm Afrikaansspeaking🤔🤭,and not know thís one.Thank you.🤗
@@niciv.n.8747 intermittent fasting. Say you eat 8 hours out of 24
So you gave up wholegrain oats as well?
life is a lottery, I had two brother in laws that both died in their early 60s, one was a vegetarian the other was gluten free. I also have several friend that are into their 90s eat and drink most anything (in moderation) and one is a life time smoker. Just eat sensibly and enjoy your brief time here on earth and don't get too hung up with this kind of information, unless you have an issue with your health. Bon Appetit
😂
You just described the definition of STUPIDITY
It's not just about longevity. It's about life quality. Eat good stuff to be healthier and enjoy life more.
True. But good to be cautious & take care of oneself
Indeed, my grandma has 90 this year and all her life eated bread, cookies made by her, meat and even fried fats but also worked hard on their fields and ranch...nowadays peoples are too laizy and unmotivated to do hard work, this is the main problem, and to avoid this work they fall into follow a bunch of theorys that for short and medium term gives them some benefits...
I broke up with my biologist boyfriend because he said he doesn’t support my ketogenic lifestyle. I’ve been doing keto for couple weeks now and honestly I don’t have intense cravings. I lost lots of weight (I was in obese category now I’m considered overweight) so far I am liking what I am seeing.
Had been doing keto for 2 years. Came round from eye surgery and was offered a couple of slices of toast. That was the beginning of a 6 week carb binge! The cravings were totally out of control, it's as if I was on drugs. I also had a huge inflammatory response. I have rheumatoid arthritis and had a massive flare up in my joints and tendons. Finally got back on track with keto and have also gone gluten free.
Wheat in this country is dessicated/ it is soaked in Monsanto's Roundup for 2 weeks before har vest to dry it out! When I was in Italy I ate all the bread i wanted and never a problem. thinkning I was somehow cured I ate bread when I came back to America and bam I was struck down again. I looked into it to find out what was going on and found out the horrific truth that our grains in this country are soaked in Roundup prior to harvest to dry them out and to purposefully harm us. You are having a reaction to Roundup.
I started having arthritis and tendonitis in my hip. Cut way down on gluten and carbs and its already feeling better.
Thanks for your comment as I wasn't sure it would work for tendonitis.
You got all this from eating toasts 😂😂😂😂.
@@paganizondasroadster1660 Eating the toast gave them permission psychologically to start eating a bunch of bread and carby stuff. Reading comprehension. "That was the beginning of a 6 week carb binge!"
Sorry that now is no way for you to return to a free eating life...once you do a long term diet your entire sistem switches on it and gets its benefits out of it but this comes with other costs as you saw...
The past 5 years I have been gluten free, when I tell people my story including doctors no one believed me! So thank God for you dr berg. After I stopped all for a of gluten I got of antidepressants and anxiety medication, PTSD did not even exist anymore, the intrusive thoughts even stopped. I was medicated for 10 years! I started doing anything and everything to stop how sever I had gotten, medication wasn’t even working. I was having anxiety attacks that would last months day and night with no stop, I was in ER all the time. I then decided to join a gym, stop consuming bread then I started to feel really good. I went on stop all forms of pasta and rice and then stopped my medication cold turkey! It was the best thing I have ever done! My dr was angry I stopped my meds... angry and I wasn’t having any issues anymore, work that out. Anyways I hope my story in short form helps someone else who is reading. There is hope, you are loved, you are not alone. I have my own motto : if your head is off then your gut is off. Your gut is your second brain. And in my opinion your gut knows anything before your actual brain does. Sending you love 🙏🏼
Thank u for sharing. I just wonder, I am cooking for a homeless person daily with carbs and bread. She is mentally ill and cant go to the food distribution service. I was just thinking after your story, if I should try and change her diat to see if she will improve.
I eat bread because I make my own bread! I ad extra gluten to it as well!!! I don't have any problems....
turmeric is good for anxiety
Your doctor was angry? Damn… shouldn’t he be happy that your healthy? Sheesh they really are greedy
@@tarot-karma-online my wife is unhealthy via carbs and bread too. Wish I could change her diet but she fights ne off.
I have been having all these symptoms after eating bread, pasta and potatoes and have always put it down to starch but it now makes more sense after seeing this video that it's down to Gluten so I will be trying the challenge for a week to see how it goes. What amazes me though is that the symptoms started in my 30s with no ill effects growing up. I'm so glad I found this channel as everything is so informative and easy to understand, thank you Dr Eric 👏👏
I also went off gluten (and dairy) like many others commenting....and it was clearly a root cause of my bloating, inflammation and ezcema! Thank you so much for everything you do Dr Berg. I am curious and am planning on trying the Keto diet to see how that goes.
I currently have eczema and I'm thinking of cutting diary for a couple weeks or so and see what happens.
I was going to start eating kefir again, but the kind I was going to eat is dairy kefir. What do you do for probiotics? That's why I was going to eat kefir again.
Dr. Eric, there's something about you that makes us stick to the entire video. Its so hypnotic, your way of explaining stuff feels like we're actually learning the medical field as a fresh student.
Hes a wealth of knowledge and not too bad on the eyes either lol
A dependancy to one of the ingredients is enough to keep someone eating ANYTHING. People would eat phlegm, if it contained something they had a food intolerance based addiction to.
Please research this topic lost of what he's saying here is nonsense.
@@RMILLSMMA
Are you a doctor? What he's said so far is true. I even made entire lists of it and verified by different sites. I guess you're the one who didn't researched.
@@RMILLSMMA. Maybe you own a bakery factory. Health is supreme than the pecuniary lucres.
I cut out any and all grains 6 months ago. I've lost a ton of weight and feel MUCH better. Over the past 1.5y I've lost 85lbs of fat by following what I've learned on this channel and my own research.
Been Bread free for 45 days and feels great, also sugars and carbs. Thank you for the great information
Dr. Berg, you are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! My husband and I have been grain free since around January. (on keto) and we feel much better. And we also lost weight. You are the best ❤, thank you.
In October 2018 I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and started taking a water pill. All my blood test results were in the normal range. I was scared to take the water pill for too long so I wanted to figure out how to stop taking it. A few months later I heard about Keto from a friend of mine. The first week of May 2019 we decided to do Keto after watching videos of Dr. Berg and another doctor regularly. We returned everything we could to the grocery store. We cut out everything like grains, pastas and things that could turn into sugar. We adjusted our food as suggested by both doctors including eating more fatty meats and seafood. Adding more cheese (no carbs) wasn't a problem because my husband is French.
Within 3 weeks I lost 15 pounds (almost 7 kg). I had run out of the water pill and was due to see my doctor the first week of June. My blood pressure was normal without the water pill. When I saw the doctor I told him that I hadn't taken the water pill for a week. He said that if my pressure was still normal he would take me off the medication. I was taken off the water pill a week later. My blood pressure is still normal. I had blood work done for a physical almost three months ago. Test results were normal. I've lost a total of 50-55 pounds (23-25 kg).
Hi how are you feeling today friend
My family and I learned nearly all of our health problems were gluten related last year. My mother and I have both lost around 50 lbs going gluten free ( from getting rid of all the inflation). I feel like I'm 20 again. I learned about Dr. Berg about 9 months ago, and have been educateing myself with his videos ever since. Dr Berg hits the nail on the head in this video with every thing we've learned in the last year concerning gluten. Great video. Thanks for your knowledge
Same here!!
It's so addicting. How did you stop?
I eat tons of bread and never gain weight. All our bread is homemade I wonder if that has something to do with. Everyone in ancient times ate breads they are lucky they weren’t all sick and fat.
@@cece3194 I felt so sick and I seen how healthy my mom got once she figured it out that I was just super motivated. Then the icing on the cake was like 4 or 5 weeks after going I ordered a califlower crust pizza from Domino's and got cross contaminated. I felt so horrible I knew I didn't ever want to go back.
It does suck the first moth or so having to read every label of every product you buy. And initially our groshry budget did go up a bit because of all the products we had to replace (like amino for soy sauce), but after a month or so everything has gone fairly well.
How did you lose 50lbs of inflation? What does that even mean?
I love you Dr Berg you’ve help me a lot with many health issues I am going through.
Protect this man at all cost
I’d take a bullet for dr berg
are you people brain dead? bread doesnt makes us fat. calories makes us fat. if you are in a surplus, you will gain weight. why the hell would you think bread or any carbs makes us fat?
Absolutely! And continue to aid in his pursuit of spreading misinformation!!!!!!!!!!!
You deserve better buddy, eat your grains.
@@justincampbell7502 a little bit of a harsh characterization, he seems to be genuine and mean well. I'm always willing to entertain new information with the possibility of changing my mind, you have my ear.
My goodness...i can't describe how happy I am from following your advice. I've been having diarrhea issues and frequent bowel movements even after starting a healthy diet but when I quit eating anything with gluten, my problems went away instantly! For now I only eat gluten free crispbread with plenty of vegetables.
Thank you so much. You have saved me multiple times!
It's not the bread it's the chemicals that are being sprayed on the grains and the modifications they do to them. A friend of mine is badly gluten intolerant. Can't have any of it at home. She went over to Italy and was able to eat all the bread and pasta over there without any issue at all. Came back to Australia, and again couldn't have any of the gluten products.
Exactly
You got a very good point, I live in the uk and I am gluten intolerant but eating the bread in France, Turkey, Italy was absolutely fine!
I’m pretty sure that’s Dr. Bergs point. The bread becomes corrupted or tainted from its natural form. Maybe rewatch the video all the way through again.
It is also the genetic modification. And maybe the addiction to the exorphins is part of it, even in Europe! But isn't that amazing about being able to eat Italian wheat.
the chemicals are bad, but the bread can do as he is saying and so can dairy.
Dr. haven’t you considered having your videos translated into spanish or subtitled them! All that information you share is amazing and need to be spread all over🙏🏼
or reupload he's video in Spanish
I agree to transalate.
This guy is so knowledgeable and is my primary Keto source...
Yeah, giving up bread was one of the hardest things about starting keto, but this week was my fourth anniversary of low carbs which means no bread, pasta, cereal, oatmeal, cakes, cookies, pancakes, etc., etc.! Now, it all seems quite worth it - I've never felt better! I'm 72.
JOVIAL BRAND EINKORN PASTA OR their other gluten free pastas are safe . Einkorn is delicious n safe
@@pilarq7886 Einknorn is still wheat.
@@pilarq7886 Yeah, I know there are substitutes, but I'm good with the way I'm doing it, but thanks.
I did it for a long time. Lost weight down to a size 2 and I was miserable without the foods I grew up eating. Being that thin also made me look a lot older. I know I am the gluten sensitive person and do have the symptoms but I struggle to do the keto plan as all the foods I grew up eating are off the list of acceptable foods. What fun is life if you do not enjoy it? I basically ate meat and organic vegetables. Just got so bored. 🫤
@@lindaquinn3496 The animals eat the grains, yet they never say that meat is really made up of grains. And when they say grass fed meat, you don't know if the grass has pesticides or if the grass is only a small portion of the animals diet which it likely is. And then there's the placebo effect.
I have been cutting out bread and sugar for the past six months. It is amazing how much better I feel. I am 60 years old and am in the best shape I have been in for the last 20 years. It’s so worth it. Thank you for all the encouraging videos. I honestly don’t think I could do it without you.
read plant paradox next- great book. Dr. berg has many great videos- subscribe to his channel if you didn't already.
You opened my eyes on how to eat healthy and differentiate between garbage food and healthy food. I have lost a lot of weight because of your advices and my own research within a short time and I have noticed the brain fog that I had because of bread and sugar ( every human being enemies). I started using them again in my daily food because I got pregnant but I promised my self to go back to my old healthy diet after this.
Dr, I watched a lot of your videos and LIKED THEM ALL. Lost a lot of weight already, and sharing this particular knowledge today,a bout health washing, really opened my mind. Thanks!
Thanks Dr Berg. I’m a living walking talking example of everything you spoke of here. I have numerous issues from consumption of white bread as a child going to school through to an adult finding out I’m celiac, with hasimotos, and autoimmune illnesses. I stopped eating bread years ago it make a huge difference.
Appreciate your videos so much.
How long after avoid gluten the symptoms resolved
As i think i have gluten intolerance not sure though as the test is negative
You are 100% correct Dr. Berg, after I quit eating all grains my brain fog went away, my lethargy went away, my arms and legs quit hurting, I started sleeping again, and I lost 57 pounds, thanks for the very helpful video 😊❤️
gluten is not the only thing /food causing inflammation
What are the things you eat? no rice no wheat flour?
@@aaquib2010 I eat low carb vegetables, meat, fish, hard cheeses, eggs, sunflower seeds, pecans, almonds, sometimes a few peanuts, and berries in moderation, no other fruit, I only drink water and I do intermittent fasting for 18 hours, I eat breakfast at 12pm, lunch at 3pm, and my last meal at 6pm, but I slowly worked up to 18 hours fasting, I started at 10 hours fasting, then increased it each month, the first two weeks was very hard for me, I was always hungry, but then the hunger went away and the weight started coming off about 2 pounds per week, but I do not always lose weight every week but I keep at it and the weight starts coming off again, oh and I do very little exercise because I am crippled, I sit up on the side of my bed and exercise my legs and arms daily, and I walk from my car to the entrance of the grocery store to the motorized cart about 3 times a month, any movement helps 😊
@@deborahdenton6851 Thanks for this. It is quite helpful. I have been fasting (Ramadan) for last 20 years so 18 hours will not be as bad for me hopefully. Although for me its hard to resist food for 18 hours unless its the "religious fast" where I cannot break it. :D
@@aaquib2010 I am so happy that I could help, even in a small way, have a blessed day 😊♥️
Haven’t had bread in 8 years. Already been keto and following you for 8 years and it’s flown by!
You Sir have a constant welcome on my screen...thank you
Ever since I started watching you're Channel, I have not eaten any carbs, well I eat vegetables. I have reversed type 2 diabetes and lost a ton of weight! DR BERG, You are the best! Keep on doing what you are doing! I appreciate all of your videos. In addition, I past them on to others and they feel the same way I feel! GOOD JOB! 👍🏽😊😉
the Diabetes is gone?
@Brian Rockefeller, yes.
Providing I maintain a healthy diet. *Dr. Berg has a very effective ketogenic diet.* For those seeking clarity regarding their health, I highly recommend it. However, it is not enough to eliminate bread from your diet. You must also include leafy greens, extra virgin olive oil, and apple cider vinegar with the mother!

@@CharlesMunroe Thank you for replying me, I dont have diabetes I was just asking, Im glad to hear you are Ok now, I know many people with Diabetes and the industry says doesnt have cure to make profit with insulin
@@brianrockefeller3552 late stage diabetics are impossible to reverse. He is maintaining the keto diet meaning eliminating carbs.. once one eats carbs diabetic would be back.. so it’s basically diet controlled than cure
Yes. You definitely described me to the whole crisis...then I found you and your channel. I've learned so much from you and all about the Ketogenic lifestyle. I am getting better and I am so grateful for the time you take to help me learn things my doctors wouldn't teach me...
I've started keto and IF 64 days ago and all the issues Dr berg is taking about went away. I also lost 10lbs. Feel great! Thank you
Wonderful! Keep up the good work!
I gave up bread about 2 years ago. I had been missing being able to eat sandwiches, until I learned about chaffles. They are made from whole egg and cheese...usually mozzarella, but sometimes other cheeses. You can add various different things to it if you want...but only keto friendly stuff. I added baking powder, and psyllium husk to mine. They are awesome. It's great being able to eat sandwiches again.
Can you writte your recipe in short words please?
I have chronic Ulcerative Colitis. I stopped eating bread, whole grains, etc, last November and not only did my abdominal distension decrease, but I had fewer UC flare-ups and lost 40 pounds. It also decreased my desire for sugar. It was difficult at first to stop the bread, as I was so conditioned over the years to eat a sandwich because bread was filling and a comfort food. Not any more. Feel so much better, fewer headaches and I have more energy. When I stopped bread, I started exercising more because the bloating was gone.
Love the vids. Thanks Dr. Berg.
If you want to get rid of your colitis take a glass of salt water last thing at night and first thing in the morning for 7 days. Then take a large desert spoon of codliveroil on empty stomach last thing at night and first thing in the morning for 7 days. Of course cut out wheat and grains and use a linseed poultice across your stomach for 5 to 7 days.
@@mariecarton8611 Thanks for all the info. Unfortunately, I can't use cod liver oil. It actually flares up my colitis and cause too much reflux for me. I have a history of colon cancer, so I have to be really careful about my supplements intake, and always ask my GI and oncologist before I add/change any supplements, etc , to my daily regimen. Many thanks for your help.
@@mariecarton8611 Thanks for all the info, but I can't take cod liver oil. It actually flares up my UC and. causes too much reflux. I've tried it before.

My psoriasis has lessened when I stopped gluten. It returned when I started keto bread with gluten. I now will remove it from my diet completely. Thank you so much for sharing this Dr. Berg 🌼
mine too. an increase in Vitamin D helps too
Psoriasis is LIVER dysfunction coming out through the skin.
Is it, I get sooo itchy when I eat too much bread or sugar. What else do you know because apparently psoriasis is not curable
@@kathy2888 My doctor noticed a vitamin D deficiency a few years back in a routine blood test and put me on the super Vitamin D for like 2 months. Mine dried up almost instantly from just that. SO she told me to go on a double dose every morning and it kept it off. This was before I went keto so I was still eating bread on occasion. it was low carb, but still. Of course, a bad diet is the worst thing for your skin, this included.
Wow. My bad eczema that forms especially around/under my eyebrows went away when I started keto. Showed back up and I wondered what caused it. I had introduced some low carb bread (Sola) and have not had any in a while and my face cleared back up. Had to have been the bread! Never considered the gluten would be the ultimate culprit.
Your videos are both helpful and depressing at the same time lol. I appreciate all the work you put into your content they're so informative!

When I quit eating carbs last year, it was the best I have ever felt since I was 20 years old and I am now 43. I also lost 50 pounds in four months. After watching this video I’m definitely going back to the no carb diet and sticking to it because it makes you feel 20 years old again I promise you and after you get through the first three days it’s easy
Thats Wonderful!! May I ask what it is your eating... re no carbs? Thank you and God bless 😊
Please share about your daily diet
@@phillygrl69 Well for me I’m a very picky eater so you would think it would be hard but what I would eat for breakfast is bacon and eggs with cheese, lunch would be a piece of grilled chicken with green beans and in the afternoon I would have a nicks keto ice cream snack, dinner would be pretty much the same as lunch. But if I ever wanted a snack and craved any kind of carbs or sugar I would eat one of those nicks ice cream bars and I would only eat a quarter or a half because they are big or they have this keto cookie dough that you can eat raw or bake as cookies so I would bake them as cookies and anytime I started to have a craving that would immediately get rid of it

My youngest son who has Autism was allergic to Gluten as a child. Bloating and stomach issues. He tested negative for Gluten at 6 years old but we kept him on the diet. After 13 years of a Gluten free diet I mainstreamed him and he grew like a weed. Very athletic, and strong!
My father ate white bread all of his life. He was almost 98 when he died. He never took any medication and never once in his life complained of having pain. His health only declined in his last year, and only after he stopped eating his white bread and bologna sandwiches.
Everyone is different really , healthy individuals should not have any problem with gluten products
my mom just passed away recently. She lives 95 years old not even one day pass she don’t have bread She love bread at least two times a day. If she don’t crack her leg, probably she still will be life. I love bread too and I am 71 and I don’t take any medication and I don’t have belly. I have a great body for my H. Six months ago I started to bake bread by myself from organic flour delicious.🙏❤
And?
I'm a Korean living in S.Korea. Not so many Koreans are regarded to have gluten intolerance compared to Western people, but I have gluten intolerance. I slowly quit all the ramen, noodle and bread. Surprisingly, my potbelly disappeared in a few weeks. One day, I was very hungry. I thought one meal of exception could be okay and ate some pieces of pizza like a pig. I immediately started vomiting up and experienced symptoms like food poisoning. So I started studying about gluten of flour, found out that there are three kinds of flour -bread flour(hard flour), plain flour, cake flour(soft flour). Bread flour(hard flour) has the highest gluten to enhance viscosity.
Thank you for sharing! As Latino, classic bread is not my problem instead I’m going to try to stop eating noodles, tortillas and other gluten based food.
Thank you so much for the insight !!!
I grew up eating bread, but for going keto I gave up flour for many months. Then I had some for Thanksgiving meal last year (bread, stuffing, pie)- I had a similar effect (nausea, vomiting)
I have it in my family, blood type O negative.
I have Hashimoto’s thyroiditis since I was diagnosed with it, I bake my own gluten-free bread, dairy free, soy free, corn free and sugar free. I eat my baking moderately once in a while, I do intermittent fasting and I feel amazing.

Dr Eric. I love your videos. After I had my second child ten years ago I put lots of weight. I' ve been suffering from low belly pain for the last 9 years . I live in London and I have seen many doctors for the past 9 years. I can't listen to it because I went through a lot until two years ago my doctor said "I don't know what to do with you because we did a lot of investigation and we couldn't find anything , perhaps you need to see by a psychologist . I totally refused to see the psychologist. Instead, I did some research and I found you and dr Jason Fung talking about the benefits of intermediate fasting. I immediately started and after six months all the pain was gone I felt a new person. My weight was 83 kilos and it dropped to 63 kilos. Despite lost those kilos last February towards now I gained 13kilos again because of I have being eat bread, pasta, cakes and ice cream 🤬. Shame on me🤬🤬😡😡😥. But today I am determined to lose 13 kilos forever. . Thank you very much Eric. ❤️
Thanks for the clarity.
You're very welcome.
For my mother generation having the meat was a Sunday treat. They lived mostly on what the farm provided, the bread, milk, eggs, potatoes, etc. My mother lived happily until 92 as did the majority of our family.
The difference is how food is processed today. It's not fresh like your farm. It's filled with harmful chemicals and strange combination of foods like maltodextrin.
Meat was a sunday treat? That rhymes.
quantity/scarcity matters a whole lot. and some people can drink and smoke and live to 100. statistics matter more than anecdotes
But how much access to sugar did they have on a farm?
It's probably the big difference.
She consumed what was fresh on the farm, not from a supermarket, completely unmolested food.
Thanks for explaining this so good. I can't believe that MD's don't tell people this. Thank God we found you here on TH-cam!
That sonic boom you just heard was Panera Bread collapsing on the Dow Jones Industrial Avg
This is really helpful. Usually I say, I didn’t know but in this case I have written extensively on Quora about this just I can’t pinpoint how many Americans this affects.
Well well well, this explains a lot! I had no problems with giving up bread, but many close ones are struggling real hard.
You just nailed it again Dr Berg. I giw up eating bread back in my home country Zambia, of course not the white bread most of which my mother baked, wholegrain.,I never had problems. I later started a following a diet based on my blood group, eating right for type, meaning I took gluten off my diet but would eat half a slice if I went to someone's home. No much choice in Zambia. But I still had not problems, the problem for me was triggered when I moved to Germany and ate buns from a normal bakery,, my doctor suggested I go off gluten completely, which I did, plus your advise, my life is feels so much better. I actually experienced depression too, thyroid disfunction... Now I am so so much better.
I ear alot of sauerkraut, if I eat bread I make my own sauer dough gluten free bread.. Our food is organic in our home.
Hello fellow Zambian! Don’t forget the Nshima and all that GMO corn 😩
Theres no research to back any of this. Bread does not cause autism lol
What's your recipe for the sour dough gluten-free 🍞?
Germany and not eating all sorts of bread is quite the difficult combination indeed... It's like water for me, if I skip it, I actually fall ill.
23 days gluten free and I’ve never felt better. I had this issue from a child and the doctors couldn’t figure it out. Gas, bloating, constipation, abdominal pain every time I would eat bread, pizza and anything with gluten. I would stop for a while and then go back to eating theses foods because they were so addicting. I finally got tired of the suffering. I realize it’s not worth it. Very informative video, will definitely share with my family.
Every time i watch another of Dr. Berg's awesomely informative videos, i can't decide weather i'm excited or terrified. 🙂

On the serious side, since taking up keto as a major lifestyle change, I have probably eaten three slice of bread since then. Prior to this, I had hip pain so bad, I was certain I would be getting hip joint implants before long. I went full keto and within 30 days, ALL of my joint pain vanished for good. Thank you, Dr. Berg. You have saved, or at least vastly improved, more lives than anyone I know.
Thanks for sharing that info. Just left the doc received a cortisone shot for hip and leg pain. Time to give up bread and carbs .
I believe you. I started getting rheumatoid arthritis symptoms, especially gout, in my right thumb. Hurt so much, I feared that I could not work anymore. But I was eating bread, bagels, chips, soda, pasta everyday. Stopped and went somewhat keto. 🤣in one week all pain and inflammation was gone, depression gone, energy up in two weeks. This works, and big pharma wants us sick. Stay strong and healthy friend!
Same here - hip pain is way down. My hips joints use to click when I walked and now they are much better. Been off gluten for 2 months.
@@timwallace5786 But replace with healthy fats and GF beef for nutrients for your pain to dissipate. I walked with a cane for 6 years and I ended up changing my diet in 2019 and felt much better. Unfortunately with the pandemic and moving into our first home I have been off that diet for a year and a half. I've been back on it for the 2nd month and my hip and foot pain has improved already.
Heck yes! So happy for you and your progress!!

People have been surviving for ages but now if you tell them they don't need to eat Choco Maxi Double Cream, they don't know what to eat instead
Ate bread my whole life and loved it so much. Had stomach issues and allergies most of my life too. Did gluten intolerance test which did not reveal any intolerance. But when I eventually tried a low carb diet without grains my stomach immediately got healed. Still have allergies and other issues but it's evident to me grains are not good for me. At all. I imagine that to be true for a lot of people.
I was born in South America, we've consumed gluten for thousands of years.
Man we all know this, but damn, fresh bread straight from the oven tastes soooo gooood with butter....
Exactly, make it yourself and then the bread 🥖 is not corrupted.🎯
@@worldgravityresources1037 yeah, I can’t eat store bought crap, but I bake my own bread every other weekend, alternating between sourdough and long fermented yeasted breads... the trick I’ve found, particularly for gut health is, the longer it ferments (within reason), the better it is for you. A 48hr biga is the best, but it can get tough a chewy, of course a 30 hr sourdough is also great, but once again, tough and chewy...
@@worldgravityresources1037 it’s not just that, it’s the grains that are actually grown to make flours, they’ve been so genetically altered over the years it’s making it hard for our bodies to digest it properly because it’s not natural any more 😞
@@selenacordeiro1458 yep 👍🏻 agreed! That’s why Dr berg is saying “we may Nvr want to eat bread again”. I quit breads and many other products due to Big Corporations corrupting the food industry. It’s all true….ppl are very very sick these days.😕
@@selenacordeiro1458 I spent a number of my years working on a AAA certified organic grain farm, 100% natural, non GMO, no chemicals. If you can find good organic grain flour, it’s totally worth it. And it typically has a higher W factor, making for stronger, more well structured breads. It’s not lost on me that the W factor is a direct measurement of the percentage of protein to gluten, but regardless, if you have grains or flours with a low W factor, you’re still getting gluten and whatever else you don’t want, but you’re not getting a good strong dough either.
Thanks a lot par Doctor for explaining and giving good messages to know not to eat bread.
You are awesome! All of your videos are so helpfully informative to a healthy lifestyle
God bless❤
Lately, I've been substituting riced broccoli and cauliflower for rice, especially brown rice. Now that I've got a hand crank for turning veggies into noodles, I've been enjoying them that way in the place of regular noodles. I barely eat bread anymore, even gluten free bread.
I feel so blessed that I never cared for bread or milk. As a kid, my mom made me have a tall glass of milk and a slice of buttered bread with my meals. 🤢 I would snack on lettuce, and she would encourage me to have a pb&j sandwich because I was so skinny. Lol. Not long after getting my school immunization shot, I was diagnosed with asthma. 🤨 I didn't learn till 40 years later that the food items which trigger asthma in me are WHEAT and DAIRY! 🤨 We really need to learn to listen to our body.
I grind my own organic wheat and bake my own bread and I don’t have any issues with that. But if I ate store bought bread, which tastes nasty, I find I crave it like crazy. I think the sugar in store bought bread is part of the issue too. I’d like for him to talk about what differences there are in the two types of bread because I think he’s referring to the store bought style more. Maybe not. I’m not sure.
Unless you’re sprouting your grains and fermenting your dough, you’re still eating poisonous gluten. I too eat an all organic diet but almost never eat grains. Sprouted tofu is also a rare treat but I will never touch tofu unless it’s sprouted. Sorry for the bad news. Good news: almost all fermented foods are good for you!

Hi. I just wanted to pop in and say I watch lots of your videos and I lost my first stone I started at (19 stone 3lbs) in three weeks on the Keto diet and your advice is invaluable. I am still learning and I am still losing weight. I was the heaviest I have been in my life and I am into my menopause now too. It's not been easy to follow most of the diets out there but with your diet I am not only consistently losing weight but I also feel healthier and I don't get hungry between my meals. I eat at around 1pm and I eat something else in a 3-4 hour window.. I eat organic wherever possible. And I eat delicious food. I'm feeling happier and healthier and not sausage in weight is just helping me more than I can really do justice using words here right now. I just wanted to thank you. I also use MCT oil which I know from your videos has a lot of health benefits.
typo sorry...auto correct mucked up my meaning too
I'm feeling happier and healthier and not (sausage should have read, not just lighter in weight)
while I am here I will add I am 50 years old and I am also not feeling tired all the time anymore either
Thanks for sharing this, doctor.
I'm glad you're so appreciative of that.
I LOVE you Dr Burg and your PASSION to bring the truth to American’s!!! THANK YOU!!!❤️
Incredible information Dr. Berg. Who would think that gluten is an opioid. Thank god I’m on the ketogenic diet 3 years and of course no bread for 3 years. All of my skin problems went away.
Lost 40 pounds and I owe it all to you Dr.Berg🥰💪
I just started eating bread again after taking a year or more off from it and I didn't note anything other than it was a huge inconvenience to not make a quick sandwich. I've got an egg salad sandwich made for my hiking lunch today. Everyone is different and it seems to me that studies need to be grounded on subjects that have similar vs opposing lifestyles. A sedentary person metabolism isn't comparable to some one that goes for 8 hour hikes.
I mean thts like sayin that “everyone is different, if i smoke crack i wont get addicted as you because i work out more”, the point of this is showing the effects on chemicals in bread on the body n how it reacts. We ate bread all our life since kids, and our bodies dealth with it. But what of we didnt eat this bread all our lives? We need a study of a person who hasnt eatn bread all they life
I work with several individuals as a social worker who are in their 90s and eat sandwiches daily for their lunch and do not have any health issues. I am in my early 50s, went gluten free after being diagnosed with a thyroid condition. All my family eat bread and have no issues. These conditions do not apply to everyone. My grandma died at 105 and eat bread daily never spent a day in hospital and did not believe in western medicine. Please we need to take this information with caution.
If you ever followed or read about the Blood Type diet, some blood types are better with grains then others. I am 0- and we do well with the Keto diet which would be the meat and vegetables for most part but not good with grains. I used to get sleepy after eating oatmeal and didn’t know why. But my body had no use for it energy wise. If your blood type is other than 0 you more likely are better equipped to eat grains.
John Gouin - You make an excellent point. I eat bread and grains, in moderation, and I have encountered no health issues because of it. I also do a lot of long distance cycling and workout 3-4 days a week at the gym, and I rely on those carbs to fuel my workouts. I do feel better now that I've stopped smoking that crack, though! LOL 🤣😂
I still occasionally buy organic slice bread which cost more but at least it doesn't have Azodicarbonamide (ADA) which is an FDA approved yoga mat, shoe glue ingredient in over 500 foods made with dough / flour. Researchers say ADA induces asthma, other respiratory symptoms, and weird skin sensations. Over time IMO, ADA probably clogs the arteries (like cheap cooking oils do), sort of like pouring caulking into a straw which leads to heart attacks and strokes.
Dr. Berg is wonderful and he really teaches us so much important information that we all really need to know regarding our health !!! The sad part is with all this education, on Bread, and Sugar and carbs, it really leaves me quite depressed because honestly, everything I enjoy eating is actually making me sick !!! I know I need to change my whole perspective of how I look at food and also my palate at the same time, not an easy task, but a crucial necessity none the less ! ☹️
I have known for years that my body doesn’t process flour /grain. I feel like crap. Enjoying your videos
Because of you and a hand full of others on TH-cam convinced me to ditched bread over 3 years ago and I never missed it. It no longer exist to me. Thanks Doc!
My ancestors ate bread all the time. My grandmother lived to 93 and my living grandmother is 85. I think some bread is fine.
Exactly, I dont think its the natural grains in the bread but all the added crap in modern breads.
thanks Dr Berg! It's fascinating how grains have been promoted as a cornerstone of a 'healthy' diet, yet their impact on our health can be quite complex. As you've rightly pointed out, gluten, a protein found in grains, can trigger exorphins, offering that temporary sense of comfort and euphoria, similar to the opioid response.
However, it's crucial to recognize the potential ripple effects that indulging in grains can have on our overall health, especially when we consider conditions like NAFLD and pre-diabetes. The body's response to grains can often lead to inflammation, contributing to a cascade of health challenges.
For those on a journey to reverse NAFLD and pre-diabetes, a strategic approach that aligns with the ketogenic lifestyle can be transformative. By focusing on reducing carbohydrates and embracing healthy fats, the body can transition into a state that promotes liver health and metabolic balance.
This approach not only addresses the potential triggers of inflammation found in grains but also empowers individuals to take control of their health outcomes.
Love and blessings from Sydney Australia .
This is the information we all need to hear. Thank you.
It's quite simple but affective. Stopping eating bread means, no sandwiches, toast, garlic bread, bread with soup etc. It's not just the bread but what the bread comes with and the fact it's so convenient and easy to over eat and snack on! I do however make my own organic sourdough which I only make a handful of times a year and being fermented with no added ingredients it's good for your gut health. I sometimes add chia or pumpkin seeds for added fibre.
Hello Richard. My name is Brad. Would you mind sharing your recipe for your organic soughdough bread, that sounds delicious, especially since it's much better for you...Thank you.
~Dr. Berg explained that sourdough bread & also bread dough fermented for up to 3 days will have >less gluten< than bread dough fermented for only about 1 hour.
~A person can purchase and also make homemade gluten-free bread.
~I buy and eat Ezekiel type bread, it can come under different brand names like Silver Hills. Ezekiel bread is the healthiest bread you can eat. Ezekiel bread is about as nutrient dense as a bread gets. It is a type of sprouted bread made from a variety of whole grains and legumes that have started germinating (sprouting). Ezekiel bread is much richer in nutrients and fiber. Ezekiel bread is different from most other breads for several reasons. Some Ezekiel breads contain "no" sugar, >it is "not" gluten-free< but it is "not" made from flour or has "no" pulverized ground grains. It is made from organic, sprouted whole grains and legumes. Sprouting changes (increases) the nutrient composition of the grains and legumes significantly.
~(1)But it would be good to know if a person can make homemade or purchase totally gluten-free Ezekiel bread using "only" sprouted legumes and "no" sprouted grains.?
~(2)Does Ezekiel sprouted grain bread have "less gluten" than regular bread with grain flour.?
~(3)How much if any gluten is in Barleygrass or Wheatgrass juice 'or' sprouts.? (I have Barleygrass juice powder.)
This video is very soft.
Hey Doc. Question, can your stomach repair itself once you stop gluten? I really think my seed allergies and iron deficiency is due to gluten.
I stopped eating grains and in 3 days I was literally a whole different person. Things looked brighter. I felt happy no anxiety, no pain. It was equivalent to a spiritual experience. I have no words to explain. The weight melted off me. I didn't restrict how much I ate as long as it wasn't grains or sugars.
What you Eat brother if You stop All Grains and sugar ??
I’ve been learning so much from your channel lately Dr Berg, this information is invaluable. Thank you!
So glad to hear that! Most welcome!
Question/ video request! Your videos have helped our family so much. We are believers in Christ and the Bible and have been on a health journey for awhile. I’ve always been confused why bread is so bad when Jesus ate it daily. We recently j got a grain mill and have purchased organic wheatberries to make our own bread products, wow what a difference I can tell. If you ferment it using the sourdough method it breaks down the phytic acid and makes the nutrients more available. I’ve done some research about the hybridization and it seems like it’s “ok” since it’s wheat to wheat. Also there are ancient grains (einkorn) that haven’t been hybridized. What if our issue is not eating food in the way God created it in the first place? (It is 😉) you lose 90% of grains flour nutrients 3 days after it’s been milled. I can already tell a difference with the fresh flour we’ve been using. I’ve made bread products every day and lost 2 pounds (previously just try and stay away from it) would love to see you study this out! Hopefully this is helpful to someone else.
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ! ✝️
Also: Ezekiel bread! Prescribed in the Bible and much more healthy than “regular” bread.
I've been grain-free for just about one year now, and boy howdy, has my health improved by leaps and bounds (not to mention a whopping 110 lb. weight loss!!). By God's grace, I will never go back (and honestly, I don't even miss it because a high fat, low carb diet is so satisfying). If only I had known this stuff 40 years ago, I would have had a way healthier life.
That's fantastic!
Give up bread was much harder for me than give up sugar. I always thought sugar is more addictive. I was wrong.
Agree, bread was my hardest to give up
Same here, its hard giving up on bread, yet sugar isn't all that hard
wow, I had the same experience. Sugar is a breeze next to bread and gluten, talk about addicted, but that's in the past now.
Toast! Literally a staple. My vet convinced me to put a pony grain free and it convinced me to try it myself.
Birdodalom I don't believe all this hype against grain unless there's a definite allergy or other medical condition. The proof is if I haven't been eating that good I can eat whole wheat bread and it gives me back my health. Look at how frail he is getting. He's gotten some info wrong
