Let’s talk about how to get rid of eye floaters.
Eye floaters are an accumulation of collagen fiber in a certain form that’s damaged-it’s been glycated. This means it’s stuck to a sugar molecule.
When a protein is connected to a sugar, or sugar is connected to a fat, it becomes unavailable and can clog up the body.
A lack of antioxidants, as well as a high-carb diet, can contribute to glycation.
But there are things you can do to help prevent glycation. Taking these natural remedies for eye floaters on an empty stomach may be best so they don’t interfere with other proteins.
The best natural remedies for eye floaters:
1. Choline (1000 mg per day)
2. Inositol (500 mg per day)
3. Methionine (200 mg per day)
4. L-lysine (one to three grams)
These remedies can take time to work-even months. To help enhance and speed up the process, you can try intermittent and prolonged fasting.
It’s also crucial to start cutting sugar out of your diet. Getting on the Healthy Keto® diet may help balance your blood sugar levels and increase your antioxidants to get rid of floaters.
The best foods to consume to help get rid of eye floaters:
1. Vegetables high in vitamin C
2. Meats and seafood high in zinc

Thank you Dr. Berg!
You forgot the vegetables!
I was told by the eye surgeon that operated on Prince Albert of Monaco (Dr. Rakic of CHU in Liège) that nothing can be done safely if you’re young because the only thing to do is remove that vitrous body. When you’re young your retina sticks to that body and you risk tearing the retina. When you’re old (60-ish) it doesn’t stick anymore and you can attempt to replace the vitrous body. I’ve had floaters since I was 5 years old. I am definitely trying this!
I looked at WEBMD, Mao clinic, Healthline , nothing on nutrition or anything Dr. Berg mentioned. So sick of Western Medicine?
@@richardjacobs7632 I bet there's a Chinese herb for this optical problem
Trying this. Went to my optometrist/ retina specialist due to a heavy floater in my right eye. He said, due to my 60 year old age that it was common and it won’t go away. I Don’t believe him!
Hi Dr Berg, I went to my specialist eye doctor and asked him about the floaters and he said they will never go away,they just get worse as you get older. I’m 70 And mine did go away after I started doing Keto. And I came to the conclusion that it was the sugar that was causing my eye problems. And he told me I was wrong, unbelievable these people are allowed to practice. Thank you for this video 🎉❤
It’s more unbelievable that they would just say NO. How about a humble, I don’t know?
@@HomesteadingForHealth yes absolutely ,thank you.
I told it similiar by eye specalist. true, I have no floaters since I stopped lifting heavy boxes. etc.
That is why optician clinics are now in high value real estate on the best street corners in town. Criminal
Mine got worse when I cut sugar. 🤷🏼♀️
I'm 52. I had floaters and my vision was getting bad especially at night. I had to go to the eye doctor every year for updated prescriptions. I cut out most carbs and now eat very little sugar. I then pumped up my egg eating and animal products. Floaters are gone. I can see at night again. I haven't been back to the eye doctor in 2 years. Also, my hands don't ache any more. I used to ask my wife to rub my hands every night. I wasn't super overweight, but lost 20 pounds and sleep apnea stopped. It's a travesty that most people have no idea so many of their problems are carb and sugar related. What's even worse is when I try to tell them, but they refuse believe me because their doctor never mentions food as the culprit. Just take another pill. Heartbreaking.
Are you on a keto diet? What did you reduce your carbs down to per day?
I'm 38 and my floaters have gotten worse so I started adding bromelain and papaya into diet in case it's from my body being unable to break down protein. Haven't gone full keto yet though so I'm curious as to what your carbs at per day roughly.
@@danelledalee8173 Hey. I don't consider myself on Keto. I don't keep track of carbs, but I can tell you it's usually 50 grams or less a day. I rarely eat any breads, pastas, or anything flour related. I eat 95% less of that stuff than I did in the past. I do walk and run 3 miles a day and lift weights 5 days a week. I cut out all sugary everything like candy, cookies, snacks, drinks. I also don't eat fruit and very little vegetables. Nothing with "added" sugar. I drink water with fresh squeezed lemons and limes only. I really think most of my issue was all the added sugar things I ate which kept my weight and insulin up. I feel so much better now. I hope you are able to find relief.
Had eye floaters for 2 years…went on carnivore diet! Lost 52lbs. I haven’t had eye floaters for 6 months now! Wonderful feeling….thanks , Mr. Berg! Love Ya!!!🤩👍🏻
I just realized mine are gone after reading your comment. Carnivore for 3 months.
The carnivore diet wouldn't be necessary if these food companies would stop putting so much garbage in their recipes.
carnivore diet increased hyaluronic acid which holds vitreous fluid in the body
Carnivore is life! It's been an absolute miracle for me.
Wow great 😃
I see why they want to silence you. This guy is just too amazing
Kind of interesting how all my life I've noticed these weird things and only now I finally know what is going on.
Exactly..... I've never known what they were. Knowledge is powerful
😂😂 there's a lot of us
Many different types of floaters,
Man I thought it only happened to me!!
Wow this dude knows a lot!!
Most docs I’ve dealt with made me feel ‘crazy’ for bringing up these types of issues which in turn would make me hesitant to bring up other things. I feel like a lot of people feel the same way so we end up suffering in silence. I’m so glad to have these types of resources so when we do bring them up to a doctor we can also bring knowledge so they know we are serious and we will advocate for our health.
Before August 2022 I had at least 2 floaters, 1 in each eye. I stopped eating sugar and high carbs and stuck to a one meal a day regimen. Today I have no floaters and have lost over 30kg (65+lbs)Thank you Dr Berg for waking me up.
Fantastic! Well done!
How many days after dieting did your floaters go away?
When do you take your meal? breakfast or lunch?
I noticed a change in 3-4 weeks@@md.habibullah691
generally mid-late afternoon. i choose a 4 hour period of eating @@user-ko4oc5sc5z
Dear DR. Berg, I owe you so much! I was diagnosed with diabetis in March, got a prescription for Metformin but never took it but got myself some ceylon cinnamon and ate keto, stopped consuming sugar and used erythriol instead. My blood results went from 7,4 in March to 6,4 in June and are now 5,7! I lost almost 20 pounds without starving or going through any hardships and I sleep ever so much better! I have eye floaters too, from early childhood on. All my eye doctor said was : "that's normal, your eyes are aging." Now I will try your method and I'm sure I will finally get rid of these ennerving little worms! Thank you so much and greetings from germany!
Wow, that's great!
Do not use erythriol it is toxic to your heart, search on it and you will see new studies. Try out chromium and vanadium and cycling berberine as in for example 5 days on berberine and 2 days of or a couple of weeks on and a week of. It works great i fixed both my parents too high blood sugar with this. Read up on it, it works
"God helps those who help themselves"
The Bible doesn't say that.
I work for a Ophthalmologist and Retinal Specialist and they probably dont even know this information. Time to educate them 💪 Thanks Dr. Berg
First time in my life that I've heard someone talking about this, I'm 53 now. Since I was a young kid, I always thought it was something normal. Thank you and so much gratitude, Dr. Berg and your staff for this awareness. 💛
Same here. 50 and since 1st grade I remember seeing my 1st one. Not that big of a deal unless I looked for it but over the years have got worse but all doctors and medical experts do not have or will not have a natural remedy nor a prescription.
Same here, 51 years old, never got any advice from my eye doctor. "Your eyes are aging." Yeah, right ...
Same here...can't remember when I started seeing them but it's a normal thing for me now.
Thanks for the info.
I never think about floaters until I notice them. They come and go for me. If this takes months to work I would not know it works since I rarely notice floaters. Sometimes I notice them a couple days in a row, then a month and no floaters.
I'm 51 and I remember having them since I was 6 or 7
my whole life doctors told me that these floaters will not go away. I just have to live with it. Thank you for this video!!
If you have cataract surgery no more floaters
Treat the symptom, not the cure.
I used to have these and for me, getting rid of Gluten made them go away for some reason. Dont know why, but I am very glad they are gone 🌄
Have you been on a diet?
Great information. My optometrist never told me what floaters were. Since I've been doing OMAD and IF 20:4, eating 4 eggs a day, and drastically lowered my sugars, I have noticed my floaters are greatly reduced. Will definitely continue eating healthy. Thank you for the info.
Same here… was told what they are but never advised what to do about them. Suddenly realized they were gone after 6 months OMAD.
What is "OMAD and IF 20:4"? Please explain.
@@phillipproussier3723
OMAD = One Meal a Day
IF 20:4 = Intermittent Fasting, no "eating" for 20 hours

I hope, Doctor, that you continue to publish about the Eye Floaters. Everyone should talk about this so that people become aware. All the people I've known have the Eye Floaters, and they're all around 20 years old. It's different with adults It should be noted in the context that not only young people are affected by this, but even adults, and even children of a young age.
. I hope that if you discover anything new about this, you share it with us. Thank you.
Am 67 now. I had a lot of floaters. I used to drink a lot of alcohol. Stopped drinking for two years now. Used a lot of supplements for fatty liver such as milk thistle, vitamin E, zinc, omega 3's, and turmeric. But I still had floaters. Then I started taking N.A.C. N-Acetyl Cysteine - 1200 mg a day with food. BOOM! After about 30 days no more floaters. And my liver enzymes such as ALT and AST are improving.
‘Boom’
😆
I am using NAC for a year because of liver problems, still have floater, a lot of them
I am sorry to hear that. It maybe a combo of the other supplements, all I know is after starting NAC the floaters went away. Maybe I should try and stop the NAC for lets say 30 days and see if the floaters come back,@@piotrg2096
@@stevevantubergen4687how are your floaterd now ?
I started eating a carnivore diet 10 months ago and pretty quickly my floaters got better. They are now never noticeable to any degree. It’s been among the many ailments a carnivore diet has resolved/improved.
Interesting video! I took serrapeptase for my painful knees. Didn't help my knees at all but in 2 months my floaters went away as did shoulder pain from a botched surgery. Years later I went keto and have remained floater free.
PERFECT!!! I just figured on my own that serrapeptase would have that exact effect on eye floaters. And YOU are my confirmation!! That's great to hear it did at least somewhat resolve an existing problem. I have them. My eyesight before was better than 20/20. A sarcoid damaged my eyes and them these annoying floaters. I have this bottle of serrapeptase looking at me every time I lift my head from the bed. I guess it's time to get busy! Thanks for your testimony!
@@aaronmcneil3484 did it works?
How much of serrapeptase did you take at that time?
@@aaronmcneil3484 How much serrapeptase did you take at that time? How long have you taken the serrapeptase until your floaters went away?

After 20 years i finally understand what the heck is happening with my eyes. Thanks,
super doctor!
I have floaters. I've had one since I was a teenager. But I've also come to realize that I've always been B 1 deficient. And for some reason I think that B1 deficiency and oxalates go hand in hand.
I started reducing my oxalate intake and then I've been increasing my B1 and I've noticed my floaters have decreased significantly.
Reduced almost immediately
what did you eat
@@colleenshea2293 I cut out potatoes and sweet potatoes. I cut out beets spinach and avocados and tea.
I did eat good meats, such as lamb or pork, or fish. Eggs--eggs are very good--I also ate skyr yogurt, bananas and a few other fruits to keep my vitamin C levels up. Veggies such as brussel sprouts, kale, asparagus.
Just get a list of all oxalates and reduce by 80%. I did have coffee, but cut out teas. But for every coffee I had I offset it with more food based B1.
I found my joints ached less and my sight was better.
how did you increase b1
@@colleenshea2293I ate foods high and b1 like eggs, bacon or pork and fish. And also some of the vegetables I mentioned previously have B1; Nutritional yeast and then occasionally took benfoteamine...
Coffee isn't high in oxalate but it does deplete b1
AlliThiamine has been very helpful in our family. Thiamine is such an important co-factor, signs of deficiency can arise in just about any organ or tissue .. not just nervous system, and mitochondrial energy function. It is the original anti-stress vitamin and we have all had lots of that in the past 3 years.
Not only I got used to them, I play games with them. Try to get them to certain object, hit something while they are passing my eyesight…
I kinda just accepted them as a normal part of how human see.
But, the tide is turning and a life without floaters is on sight.
My big obnoxious one is called Steve!
Have already be okay about your floaters
This guy's like the people's doctor I love him ! ❤❤❤❤❤
Dr. Berg, thank God you're back. You are enlightening. My path is Kriya self-realisation, but you are part of that. Namaste
Not surprised that this info was in an OLD PDR and not in current versions! Thanks Doc, will be signing up for your newsletter!
Im 56 and have floaters ever since I can remember. 2 years on dirty keto but hardly no sugar and no more floaters and eye vision has slightly improved.
Whoa, I had no idea there was a name for this, let alone other people had this! Thankfully I haven’t had them for around a decade now, as almost that long ago I stopped putting sugar in my morning coffee and drastically reduced the amount of bread and pasta in my diet! Thanks again for more interesting and amazing health information, Dr. Berg! ❤️
Thank you for this video. I have been frustrated by eye floaters for years. This gives me hope!
I’ve had eye floaters since I was 17 almost 25 now and one thing I’ve noticed help a lot is getting a good night of rest plus fruits and veggies and high intake of water they appear much lighter in your field of vision
Stay away from fruits.
@@BainsPummy Why?
@@BainsPummy 🤡
@phillipproussier3723 fruit has lots of soluble sugar ,but better for you then stuff in a spoon,your keto diet reduces the sugars and convertible carbs so your body will harvest from your fat stores ,good for your waistline and diabetes too.
Wow!! I used to get those all the time as a child! Never knew what those were until this very moment and I’m closing on 60.
you always have the most interesting Video. Dr. Eric Berg.
Two years ago I began intermittent fasting. I didn't go on a ketogenic diet, but I eliminated all added sugar, especially to my coffee. (4 teaspons in each of two cups of coffee a day came out to an astounding 27 lbs. of sugar a year!!!) I was so happy losing 30+ lbs. in four months and keeping that weight off the last 2 years that I never noticed that my floaters disappeared. I hadn't had an eye checkup for almost 3 years and when I went in last month during my conversation with the doctor I realized that my floaters had disappeared!!! I had quite a few floaters, especially in my right eye. At 73 years old I had no floaters or any problems whatsoever with my vision. I have to attribute that to getting added sugar out of my diet and intermittent fasting.
This is one of the reasons why I immensly appreciate your fantastic work Dr.Berg! 💖🧬
You show the bright side of science where , demonstrating at the same time beauty of nature through it and the complexity of the human body but
I noticed I had a few of these a very long time ago but couldn't ever find information about it. And certainely not their origin and how to get ride of it.
*I also noticed there are some concentrical circles like round cells. I don't know what are those.*
Digestive enzymes were also shown to reduce floaters. So bromelain and nattokinase are probably also worth a try(there've been two trials if I remember correctly).
Bromelain is super effective. Using it for 2 years now.
Studies have shown that advanced glycation end-products (AGE) are also formed, for example, when dry-heating, roasting or frying food, especially meat and eggs which by default already contain the highest amount of AGE of any food. So choosing to boil or lightly scramble your eggs, and eating meat in a stew or heated in any moist way instead of grilling or searing will greatly help to lower the overall dietary AGE load entering your body. Heating meat combined with an acidic substance such as lemon or vinegar or tomato will also inhibit the glycation. Aged (hah...) cheeses and dried meats also have high amounts of dietary AGE.
Oh goodness! I just started noticing this a month ago, looks like black spots floating in my eyes. Thank you Dr. Berg! Will try this.
Keep going with the good work Dr Berg. Your content is great and I have learned a lot from you. Don't let the GestapTube undermine your work.

I have had surgery to remove floaters from both of my eyes. The surgery is not difficult or painful. I was able to see fine the next day and was back to normal in less than a week. Depending on your insurance, it might be expensive. If you want to go that route, ask your eye doctor or contact a retina specialist.
I've been drinking PBR (Pabst Blue Ribbon beer) for years and I still have Floaters !
Great video Doc...Stay You !
Yes I had been on Keto for quite a while, floaters had gone then I had a day where I just fell off the band wagon and just ate loads of sugary treats. A few days later loads of eye floaters. I'm back on Keto but it helps to have it confirmed that my eyes should be OK if I stick to my healthy WOE. Thank you.
After how many days of keto your floaters gone?
@@me-7245 It's hard to say because when the floaters just cascaded down I noticed of course but the fading was gradual and mostly unnoticed. I would say at least a few months though and gradual. They have not returned since I've been back on Keto if that is helpful. I do eat a lot of pumpkin or butternut squash air fryer chips as well.
OK, thank you 🌺🌺
Have had floaters for 35 years at least, and usually don't even notice them unless in bright sunlight. Going to get this stuff to try it out. Thanks doc!

i havent noticed any floaters in months, but this video helped conclude what i had theorized
Thank you, I love your teachings
Thank you for watching!
I first noticed I had eye floaters at 23. I went to an eye specialist who confirmed it. He told me that they will go when I turn 50. Im now 61 and their still with me. I’ve just got so used to them that they don’t bother me. Funny thing is , instead of diminishing with age , they’ve gotten worse.
I really notice them in the sunlight and only if I’m focused on them. Just a few weeks back I sat and looked up at the sky and couldn’t believe how many I have now. It’s like an ocean of shapes.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
you are a genius doctor,
my mom started getting floaters suddenly after two back to back sugary meals, she usually controls her diet and exercises very well since diagnosed with diabetes, but its just one ocassion,
i too have floaters since 20yrs when i had eye infection for almost 4-5 days, dint know it had a cure and thanks for discussing the reasoning,
Woah this is a problem that has been bothering me for years. I'll try this solution, huge thanks!
I’ve had floaters for as long as I can remember. No eye Dr ever told me what they were caused by. Also for the last 4 years I’ve had this vitreous tear they call it, like a blurry line that goes back and forth across my vision like a windshield wiper. This started after I fell and hit my forehead on that side. Eye doc just said it may go away or may never go away. Thanks for the info. It just confirms further that I need to stop sugar for many reasons.
I only wish I could stop sugar. And yes I have floaters.
@@Promqueen23Have your floaters gone?
Please note that sudden large floaters can be serious. I just had PVD and it was very scary.
What is PVD?
I recently had a sudden onset of large floaters. Something told me to get it checked sooner, rather than later. Went to doc the next day. Had a small tear in the retina where the vitreous had detached. Got laser treatment the next day to repair. Glad I had it checked out because it could have resulted in a detached retina.
@@dellzywillis3001PVD=posterior vitreous detachment-I’ve had this condition since 2019. It supposedly is a normal occurrence with older age which results in the appearance of eye floaters. I was only 51 when I developed PVD in one eye and then months later in the other eye. It’s awful, cannot see clearly due to large floaters, like I’m looking in a snow globe. 😢
@choppers3687 I've had the same but not nearly as bad sounding as yourself! Any possibility of treating your problems or maybe just natural solutions?
The only thing I have come across is an option for vitreolysis, where they laser the floaters in short treatment sessions which apparently pulverizes the tissues. It’s not really a new technique anymore so I am a little more tempted to try it. Not all ophthalmologists were on board with it, meaning they won’t do it. But I had found one who was and had been doing the procedure for many years already. It has risks but this doctor seemed quite candid with me about some of the complications and the reasons were identified. So maybe I’ll do it…I’m so chicken 😅but the inability to see clearly is quite anxiety provoking. It’s weird in that sense that it bothers me.Maybe I’ll try these supplements first…!
I got rid of them with fasting ,thanks for all you do
Thanks much Dr Berg for the valuable information on eye floaters and possible remedies to get rid of it!!
I've had these floaters for over 30 years. Basically as far as I remember back as a kid. I haven't sugar for 15 years. Already eating the food diet you mention and floaters don't go away. I will try the supplements and see what happens.
how about it
Why would Dr Berg be censored?? He’s just putting out health based content that’s truly helping people. I’ve seen tons of his videos now, and not once ever, has he said or done anything wrong. What could he possibly be censored for?!
Unfortunately, the reason why they are doing this is NOT because of misinformation, its because of competition.

Big pharma, hospitals, big conglomerate food producers, government who are paid lackey's (see Fauci) to censor what you need to see, and many more. They are your enemy.
In the new world order supplements and food created by God will be illegal. Under the cover of the guise of saving the world
This makes sense. Indeed for those of us who are diabetic can relate when we're not careful around the holidays.
Thank you, Dr. Berg! Your information is so important to us.
Most welcome! Glad you found it helpful.
Mind blown....I first discovered floaters atleast 10 years ago, I was swatting at them thinking they were gnats 😢 My eye doctor said no fix, you'll get used to them...and until this very second seeing this video, I have moved my head and eyes in every direction and do not see them anymore...rewind about 6 years when I first discovered your videos...dappled in keto and IF....became more serious with it....have worked very hard to eliminate sugars...your videos ❤ floaters gone...prayer combined with your knowledge, priceless
Please make a part 2 video about Keratosis pilaris please we appreciate you're efforts a lot🙏
Try coconut oil as a moisterizer
Even though I've been welding all my life I don't have floaters 🤗 but nice to know how to keep them at bay , thank you @Dr. Eric Berg DC
Hi Dr Berg, thank you as always for your wise words and approach to medical problems. So informative .
I have a request, ive been suffering intermittently from Cyclic vomiting syndrome for over 20 years. In the past 12 months it has recurred after years of no symptoms (which coincided with pregnancy and then 18 months post-partum). Is this a topic that you might cover in the future? I know it's very obscure but I'm sure many people would be able to benefit.
Thanks again, Vanessa
I have got to say something here. I have no problem with what you have presented here but it would be a mistake to assume that all floaters are a product of glycation. I have had PVDs- Posterior Vitreous Detachnents- in both eyes and the symptoms included large, dark floaters along with bright flashes of light in the left eye. PVDs occur when the Vitreous Humor in the eye develops a Meniscus that adheres to the Retina and due to shrinkage or motion pulls a tear in the Retina. The dark floaters are blood. It is possible for fluid to get behind the Retina through the tear and cause a Retina detachment. I got lucky. I went to the Emergency room and had both eyes repaired with Laser Surgery. It is better to assume that large, dark Floaters are dangerous and not benign and be wrong than it is to lose your vision.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Agreed.
Youre my favourite doctor
This is the FIRST TIME EVER that I hear about this.
Everytime someone is talking about floaters, they only tell you that it's normal and that's it's due to aging.
Never once I heard it was a glycation end product.
I'll search into this.
Thank you.
I remember when I was a kid I had loads of these! Never understood them and telling people what i seen, they thought I was weird 😂
Only found out what they are a few years back when dr berg made a video on this ❤
Glad I've gotten rid of 95% of mines.
How?
@vicky116 low carb diet, cut out all the refine carbs,grains, sugar, and junk food/drinks. Fasting and that's it really. Just eat good, drink good and fast pretty simple 🙂
@@XqFlixZxmy floaters caused by high carbs diet and lots of sugar and fried foods also but once they appear they are permanent in your field of vision there are nothing you can do about them it's your mind who just ignored them time by time so they are still in your vision but your mind adapted to ignore them help this hope
@@XqFlixZxthanks for the hope❤
@@Minigamer0786 I highly disagree but each to their own
I have been on a law carb low glycemic, balanced protein, intermittent fasting diet for a decade and I still developed floaters after cataract surgery. I have always taken care to have enough antioxidants and have tried inositol and choline and I still have floaters so as a nutritional physiologist I go with the research which shows that it is age related changes in the viscosity of the vitreous layer on the retina causing the posterior layer to detach. Habituation means I am no longer aware of them provided that in bright sunlight I wear a peaked cap to shade my eyes.
Never had floaters until having posterior vitreous separation, you're theory is correct in that situation for sure!
So Dr. BERG made up the remedy ?
Outside sunbathing looking at the blue sky. .at the sun coming through my closed eyelids..hoping this may help with floaters..maybe like the Indian sadhus do giving their eyes a sunbath every morning
Thank you Dr. Berg🏆👑
I had floaters since i was 15, only recently it's become a bother, this really helped
I had a sudden huge eye floater front and was diagnosed as posterior vitreous detachment with lights at the side.
O.M.G!
Dr. Berg;
Thank you so much for this invaluable information.
I've had some floaters on and off.
I only see them, sometimes if I am looking at a White Painted Wall Under a bright light.
I was also censored by the BigTech/TH-cam Warlocks for acknowledging your humanitarian awesomeness, regarding the invaluable health tips and wellness information!
Thank you again!
Yeah but the pharmaceutical companies don't want you learning all this..... you won't buy their drugs
@@montanawarren8462
Duh!
Go live your best life!
Stop using TH-cam as a platform for attention and mediocre recognition!
You are one brilliant Dr , such a vast range of knowledge.
Thank you for your comment!
Thank you so much Dr Berg for all this info. I have also had floaters in my eyes since I was a child
DMSO in eye drop form but use diluted.
Also there's a Russian eye drop called "visomitin" which helps reverse cataracts.
Have heard a bit about that. Can you imagine how much the eye doctors will try to supress the info?
This eye drop didn't work for me
I got it on Amazon and if anything I had way more floaters after using it
Dilute DMSO to what ratio?
Here we go.
I used to have them haven't had for some time, back when I was eating anything I wanted.
You literally spend your morning waiting for this video to come up. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 you're hilarious.
@@Boyhowdy875 so, today only?
I wonder when the last time was? Spending my Dawn phenomenon over here.
Are they now gone? Thanks for sharing your experience here.
@@Drberg Yes they are gone, I just recently noticed that I didn't notice them anymore.
@@JSFGuy because you fail. 😂😂
Omg 😳, never new this info. Thank you so so much dr Berg. As I have been experiencing some floaters in my eyes and got a bit concerned. As always, healthy lifestyle changes make EVERYTHING Better. ❤❤❤
I have been suffering from eye floaters for years now and doctors have never helped me. I accidentally just clicked on this video randomly. I just opened the TH-cam app and didn’t even see anything about this video. My finger accidentally clicked on it. I really believe God wanted me to see this video and I am so thankful. I definitely do eat a lot of carbs and I also wonder if my insulin resistance did this now.
I’ve been following dr bergs advice for several years. I have had eye floaters since I was 8. After following all of the food advice I still have floaters. Just keep in mind, while the right nutrition is important to our health, it can’t solve everything. Just because we eat right, doesn’t mean we won’t get cancer, heart disease, or other issues. Hopefully, food will give us enough strength to feel the best we can every day.
You shpuld watch the video again. Think you missed something.
Yeah but when you start on A 100 mile trip I'm sure you have both gas tanks full!!!!
I was putting castrol oil on my eye lashes hoping to grow my lashes. I noticed my floaters were gone after about 6 months.
Wow, that is good to know...I've been doing the same for about a week now as a remedy for dry eyes and I've noticed some improvement. I have floaters in my right eye too so I will definitely stick with it. So what type of castor oil are you using?
Have you seen any improvement with the eye floaters?@@forlution8122
i love dr berg because he tells us the truth he has learned and shares this learning. i want my children to know him and my friends love you so muchxxxxthanks
My eye floaters just seem to get worse as time. I look forward to trying these recommendations. I already have the supplements just need to up the intake
Dr Berg you have upset my morning, I have been following your advice for at least 5 years and I am grateful to you because my health has improved 90 % , I am very strict with my keto diet exercise and I.F but I do have the floaters and from what you say I must be doing something wrong, I am a bit deflated because I thought I was doing so well
There are other causes as well, some serious. See your eye care professional to find out why. Great job on your success.
@@Travis141123excellent comment Travis, i had floaters back in September 2019 and went for a special eye test, turns out i had a detached retina and went immediately to Moorfields eye hospital in London who were absolutely superb and i am very grateful to them….kind regards to you and everyone out there, Mark from Billericay in the UK 🇬🇧
How CLEAN is the keto eating? He delivered life changing information.
You might be dehydrated
Don't be discouraged. Others here have said you can still have the floaters despite doing everything else right!
