I was in the hospital this July, diagnosed with fatty liver. I took it serious, dropped 20- lbs. by giving up high carbs, minimal fat and no alcohol. Last week, 5 months later, my blood test say I have no more fatty liver. I am 77, so never give up.
Good for you. So many people in your position would just carry on with the same diet and expect a magic pill. Your story is so important because it is a true testimony that you can change your health condition. So absolute kudos to you and thank you for sharing. I hope you are still doing great as this post was from over 1 year ago.
@@Intellectualcuriocity no, in all info for liver diet, low carbs is the key. But for my best diet, I I like greens, lots of veggies, and moderate protein. I also take extra vit1, and if I eat to late in the day, I do not sleep well. It feels like I have a back up stessing my liver.
Thank you Clive Taylor. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and the mechanism we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
Thank you Luann Rouff. Thank you. I appreciate that. You and I know that, but I'm just trying to provoke some people with a lesser attention span than yours.😄
Agreed. Your information is valuable. The quality and attention to detail is part of your brand. If people wanted 5/10 minute videos, they’re probably not on this channel, neither are they as informed as your followers.
HI Sten.. I'm a 56 year old Australian women. I have spent my entire life believing and grew up with "fat is EVIL" . I have had a weight problem all my life..i found you about 8 weeks ago and you have changed my life. I have lost 12kgs and feel great..I have learnt so from your incredibly wonderful channel. You put everything together so clearly. Love your work! What an amazing gift you give. Thank you so much.😁
You go girl! Be your own health advocate because there is a conspiracy between government, the big food industry and big Pharma to make us sick and to not cure our illnesses caused by food but to “maintain” our sickness and doctors are a part of it through ignorance or choice. Stop the sugar completely! Stop “vegetable” oils! Use good fats/oils! Walk 30 minutes (minimum) five days a week (minimum). Eat organic and no GMO’s! More vegetables, less dairy unless it is Greek Yogurt and certain quality cheese. NO reduced fat or skimmed products... We can be the masters of or health if we educate ourselves and refuse to buy into the propaganda of big businesses and our governments.
@@GordonWaiteJr there is NO CONSPIRACY, there is only ignorance or superficial knowledge... and the fact that the BODY is yours, so you should take care of it, not your government or some drug company
@@tanenbenkavod1519 So, Tanen, where do you s'pose the 'superficial knowledge' comes from? In my experience it has come, more often than not, from Doctors themselves. (For which they are given incentives by drug companies.)
Your detractor was a doctor who will not get paid if you succeed in educating people how to stay healthy. Thank you for these videos. I have already lost 30lbs when NOTHING else I have tried in the last 5 years has helped. I promise you that these videos have helped me.
@@Fatimaatje1 start keto 2 years ago and my bloodwork cleaned up nicely along with a magnitude of other great changes. And yes a major player was cutting the beer.
@@saltrock9642 Let me correct you, going Keto is not "detox". You're only correcting the environment of your organs to a way that allows proper function (which includes "detox" to begin with). What you're saying is that your condition was reversible through life style changes, which is something medical science has not opposed ever in my career.
@@kathryngannon485 ok...I think you have to compare the two. Maybe the vegan bodybuilders are good looking, but the others are not good, they are fantastic! By the way...which animals or huge animals are vegan? The slow ones! Maybe they are huge, like elephants or giraffes or hippos right? Show me just one fast vegan animal!? If you compare their body and how much they are moving, and yours and how much you move, you need much more strength. It is your choice to be vegan, and we don’t have problem with that, especially if you’re vegan because of ethnic, but don’t do that because of your health. If you’re vegan, you have to add a bunch of stuff with food supplements. And that is a fact. Remember...the golden middle is the best in everything, and always! The fanaticism is never good. That is my opinion. Have a nice week everybody 😊
You are a gift to all people who want to take control of their health, and not rely on their GP's who for the most part are pretty clueless when they dish out advice. This Doctor is a such a natural teacher and so easy to learn from. I am blessed to have stumbled on this podcasts. Thanks a million for the selfless work that you do. Thank you thank you thank you.
It’s unbelievable how much I am learning from you, I have fatty liver disease, swollen spleen, 3 different Autoimmune diseases and obesity to overcome. I’m making great progress thanks to you and some others. Thank You! I pray God’s richest blessings over you and your family!
Highly recommend you Dr. Jason Fung and his book "Complete guide to fasting". It will help you to understand fasting (which has nothing to do with starving), the sugar addiction and how to fast, without struggling. It's not the food but the fasting that will cure you (as it did it for me). Good luck and stay strong.
@@ph0ib0s1 yes, I Have been following Jason Fung and doing intermittent fasting, omad and Stephen Gundry’s Plant Paradox, for months. I am determined to get back to optimum health
Yes, I remember when I was in my late 20s after 2 births and complained to my Dr. about weight gain. She totally dismissed me and then I realized, she was obese herself!😒😒😒
I have seen so many health videos from so many doctors so far. You are just in a different league, and the truth is that no one else has ever made videos like yours. Thank you for educating us with your vast knowledge about how the body works and how we should take care of our bodies.
What a helpful Marvel, you are. I save every video you present to us. I'll go back and watch them a second and third time. You'll hear and see something new with every re-run, of them. Thank you, for such valuable information. Thank you, I'll keep watching.

Agree A marvel of a teacher about how the body works. Just like my biochemistry class in college. Only way more advanced in knowledge. Thank you so much .
I'm a 76 year old male and I tried some of what you said - I live pretty much carnivore but adding some spaghetti cut zucchini mushrooms broccoli and then using very liberal amounts of butter cream and cheese (those three ingredients butter cream and cheese can make almost anything delicious) my chronic constipation went away haven't had to take milk of magnesia for several months and the most important thing in life I feel good most of the time, thank you so much for a lot of really great information!!!!!!!!!!
Grant, You might also consider a high quality ORGANIC olive oil. (To make sure it has not been contaminated by the manufacturer with low grade, unhealthy inflammatory causing seed oils, place it in the refrigerator for the first few days. If it solidifies, it is pure olive oil. If it remains in a liquid form, return it to your store. Once the olive oil passes your experiment, be sure to keep it at room temp.) If you prefer, you don't have to sprinkle it on your food. Take it by the tablespoon at least twice a day. So many healthy benefits, and it will also help keep you regular.
I feel like you literally diagnosed me and gave me some affordable and invaluable solutions to my symptoms so I can take ownership to my health and healing. You are appreciated Dr. Ekberg! Thank you for saving lives. Blessings and stay healthy.
Hi Dr. Sten, Im a nurse, so I’m a medical knowledge junkie. I can’t ever get enough health knowledge cuz it’s so empowering! I absolutely love your videos. I used to only listen to Dr. Berg, then I found you, so now I only listen to you. Dr. Berg & Dr. Fung. But you have the most comprehensive information & you look so healthy. Thank you for taking the time to make these fascinating videos.
I can remember listening to my parents and grandparents talking about the healings that could come from drinking and bathing in sulphur water. Being in TN, there are a lot of sulphur springs and many had well water that contained sulphur. Before all the medications and medical treatments, sick people were often sent to places in the country for the exposure to the fresh air and the sulphur and mineral springs. There were even hotels built in these areas for people to come to for health benefits. My mother was born in 1934. She was a sickly child. Her doctor told my grandmother to send her to her uncles farm to stay for a while. They had sulphur well water. So she spent several months living on the farm with her grandparents and uncle. She quickly got better and completely healed from all her symptoms. Including being prone to getting pneumonia. Which back then, could be very hard to survive. Especially for children.
Love this story. Thanks for sharing. Now it's more complicated because the big corporations have deliberately poisoned almost all of our US waterways. The latest one being the dioxin explosion from Norfolk Southern train derailment which poisoned the river nearby which feeds into other waters. There's an ex employee of an oil company who became a whistleblower for how oil companies would dump and hide their waste and chemicals into US waterways. His name is John Bolenbaugh.
You are the only person I've ever heard speak in specific terms about the healing power of sulphur. Fascinating. Thank you for sharing your mother's story. Unforgettable.
Thank you tga. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad you liked it. The greatest compliment you can give is to help me help more people by sharing the videos. 😄
Hi Dr Sten, Ive been on keto for 5 months now. Im so excited....at last my eyes are clear and white and the excess fluid around them has gone. Not only have I lost weight but I look and feel so much healthier! Thanks so much for the channel. I've found it to be a great help.
I've watched Dr. Ekberg's videos for less than a month and I've learned so much about how to eat healthy. I read a good book before about whole foods, but there're a lot of things that even a good book can't do. Dr. Ekberg's presentation and explanation is superb, and I've already felt a difference in my body. I don't have cravings (esp. for a bowl of cereal) at night any more and my stomach is not feeling bloated anymore. To put it simply, the videos just make sense! Thank you Dr. Ekberg!
Hello dear Doctor , I am totally in love with the way you put things all together and explain in perfectly orderly fashion ! You easily make us difficult terms and situations understand smooth and clear ! Cohesion and coherence is well-set !
2016: ultrasound scan before gallstone / gall removed fatty liver and 3 cysts January 2020: start keto due diabetic 2 diagnosis. Max 15 gram carb January 2021: ultrasound scan abdominals. No fatty liver, no cysts. My doc was flabbergasted, no more diabetic and healthy liver. She never saw that before.
Thank you annie pette for sharing your story. That is amazing, but even though it is unheard of in the allopathic community it happens on a regular basis for people who learn how to eat real food. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
I was diagnosed with gallstones and fatty liver in 2015 and cysts on all of my internal organs,complete life style change, no more fatty liver don't know about cysts or gallbladder though. I'm lot more fitter got my waiste down to 32" after years being 40 "
@@filmcrit she told me " all diabetic 2 have fatty liver" I said, " all fatty liver people become diabetic 2". I told her what I was doing, she looked at me, like she saw water burning.
You and Dr. Berg are my favorite teachers for health. You have a great way to make so much food misinformation much easier to understand and ease so much confusion. Thank you for all you do!! Keep making videos please!!
Unfortunately, medical schools produce a narrow minded, aloof "cast"... they tend to think they have all the knowledge once for all leaving university. When I went to see my doctor and told him that I suspected that I had insulin resistance and fatty liver, I heard: are you an alcoholic? If not it's just your old age"(I'm 60) And since I googled the probable cause of my problems, I could google the treatment. So I did. 2 years of Keto and IF= I'm slimmer, healthier and happier. Thank you Dr Ekberg♥️
Their real job is only diagnosis and safely prescribingmedicine, they don't really know anything but symptoms. There is no point to go to them for health only for surgery or medicine.
Agnes Strzykowska - didn't know 60 was old age. See, this is why I never go to a mainstream doctor. They know nothing. So thankful for real doctors like Dr. Eckberg. Congrats on reaching your health goals!
I laughed out loud at your response that the "feeling was mutual". Honestly I have watched many of your videos and will continue to because your explanations are thoughtfully presented and the message in all of them that we can control vital functions of our body to help and heal ourselves is a very positive and motivating one. A very sincere thank you!
🤣😂🤣😂I did too. I need to learn how to use this calm demeanor to handle allllll my life encounters involving people who think they know better....Thanks to Dr. E we are able to understand facts vs ficton.🤗🥰
My Nobel-prized Physics professor told students that they didn't need to show their ignorance and arrogance, keeping quiet would suffice. Nobody argued with him...
One thing to remember is doctors have been indoctrinated (brainwashed) to the point that they are totally incapable of any rational independent thinking. They just know what they have learned and are incapable of ever admitting that anything they have learned could and is totally wrong.
@@a64738 most subjects are only memorization, too much even to remember all correctly. It's not like engineering that you put in numbers and see what answer comes out, a constant checking and learning process.
Finally, all the misinformation is debunked. I have never watched a video or read a book that explained the intricate workings of the body and how to care for it in such a thorough and easy to understand way. Thank you Dr. Ekberg, your videos are a game changer, I have learned so much, you are a life saver, a true healer.
Who else is in love with this man? Seriously though these videos are amazing and when it doesn't sink in the first time you can keep going back until it does. Knowing the how and the why is much more motivating than just being told what to do. Can you let me know if you've done any videos or segments in others that explain Carbohydrates on nutritional labels please? I live in the UK so when Carbohydrates are presented on food labels it will give the number of carbs in grams ie 45.5g then it will say 'of which sugars' 3.8g. Does that mean sugar that has been added?
no sugars means glucose and fructose, the ones that give high dopamine response and they are a type off carbohydrate. It doesn't mean they are added but they can be ofcourse. Also pls don't follow all the advice this guy gives he's not a doctor and you should consult an actual proffesional if you have a problem. Livers don't need detoxing and him actually making fun of an actual doctor for exposing him is vile.
Of course me, I love him 😍 His the number 1 explain all about human metabolism and makes me feel as I traveling true the cells and see the magnificent of the human body. Somebody said his not a Doctor. He always said in his introduction I’m Dr. Sten Ekberg a holistic doctor and a former Olympic decathlete. He is the best explain all about metabolism 😉
@@mayastic9570 A doctor is a doctor. He can be holistic, he can be neurologist, cardiologist, pediatrician, but he can be holistic. Listening what dr Ekberg says, doesn't make me feel he lies. So, if you have something personal with his profession, you would better look to yourself. Maybe the problem is there.
Western medicine creates closed minded individuals like the doctor who made those comments. I have been following your diet advice closely for a couple months and running a few miles a day. Feeling 20 years younger, lost 46 lbs, my skin and eyes look great, and western medicine would have had me drugged up feeling like crap.... keep doing what you do!
Great point. It's a closed mind which prevents us from learning. And a closed mind usually reflects a narcissistic attitude. If we are not humble we will never learn new things.
My previous doctor read me the riot act when I informed him I was doing Keto and IF in spite of weight loss improved blood test results and improved overall health
@@commonsense1012 There is no money in it for them if you improve your situation through targeted healthy living. I am one who needs to know why and how things work and it seems like science is starting to provide the answers for people like us to conduct targeted self improvement. Best of luck
You pretty much saved my life, Got issues with my liver for a long time and was getting to the point where things were looking very bad, now I avoid carbs and sugar and east what you say on your videos and I’m so so much better, I did feel like i only had about a year or two to live now I feel as long as I stick to what you say the liver will be ok, I’ve lost 2 stone also because of your advice, The Fasting advice was awesome and took away the cravings, THANK-YOU VERY MUCH
I am a nurse, educated in both ordinary as well as complimantary nursing/medicinr. I find it such a relief and blessing to listen to a doctor who thinks like you. Thank you for your intelligence, and for your inspiring videos!
Lol you are a nurse and believe this nonsense? A liver cannot be "detoxed" by food or some goofy diet. Organs do this on their own. Something you should have learned in nursing school. Not by some kook dr on the internet trying to get clicks and likes on YT. Any MD or RN worth their weight knows this. If you are a nurse, I am a gd astronaut
You are a blessing and a hope for those of us who’ve been misdiagnosed and misled by the medical community we’re stuck in!! Please keep going and don’t let pessimists stop you! You’re awesome!
Thank you Dr. Ekberg! After watching one of your Ketosis videos 3 weeks ago, I made up my mind to work on getting healthy. I’m a insulin dependent T2D that was eating a high carb diet and killing myself. I stopped drinking Dirt Coke and switched to water. I also eliminated 90% of the carbs from my diet. My insulin usage went from 200+ units to 20 units a day within 2 weeks! I feel much better and I’m on the road to better health thank you for your great videos that explain what’s going on in my body. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I understood I had liver problems when I realized my bile ducts were blocked (jaundice and chalk colored stools were a big hint, pain was minimal but persistent). Both of them. I read, I learned, I kept learning and finally decided to "cleanse" my liver, change my diet and do all that I could to resolve this issue of fatty liver disease. It took a full year before I began to get the hang of it and in that time I did a lot of "cleanses" and passed a lot of congealed bile but no stones. Enough bile to fill a 2 gallon bucket (a lifetime of poor diet habits). Only after I stopped passing bile was I able to pass stones. Someone described the liver as "the other brain." I decided that I wanted to hang on to my gallbladder. That wakeup call started a learning, doing and healing process that I'm still in today. Keto is the next part of the journey and I'll be paying attention to my liver as well.
Big thank you! Probably the best educational video I saw so far. My mother desperately needs this information because doctors who have enough capacity to accept new patients are hard to find right now. - I'm glad I found you.
Completely agree and who ever left the comment is not a critical thinker. Thank you x 10 for all you share. Love your channel and appreciate all the time and energy in helping educate people and hopefully help people to think about their choices and giving them power in those choices.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg! This was an outstanding video. You are an "outstanding" resource of information that gives us the insight that most medical doctors don't have or give. Your work is "greatly" appreciated.
I recently began to research why my diabetes is still roaring like a beast, it's my liver. I haven't paid any attention to the liver, and I also am aware of what that meant for my doctor not really giving me the breakdown on why I'm still here in this place. Presently I'm seeking natural ways to combat diabetes because I'm tired of dealing with it. I've began an exercise routine daily, despite our lockdown, and since I've ran into your teachings, I know I will begin to see results. Thanks❤
*Some real quick tips:* - *Exercising regularly* is a great way to detox your body, and can help flush out toxins in the process! Stay away from sedentary activities like watching TV for hours on end or long stretches of sitting at work - you may not realize it but those things are slowly killing your liver! - *Reduce sugar intake* _Hope it helps!_
Dear Dr Ekberg, I found your channel by accident. I knew previously what keto diet was but I was a bit apprehensive to start it. When I weighed myself at the end of July, I scared myself from the number. It was 126kg - more than 250lbs. I said to myself enough is enough. I started exercising more (cycling and running) eating healthier (more fat,proteins and low carb vegetables), and overtime I reduced the carbs so much that I didn't feel the urge to eat bread, sweets, pasta etc. Until today I managed to shed almost 16kg (35lbs). After I found your channel I found out that I was doing all the right stuff. I'm feeling so much better. Cholesterol level dropped, blood pressure dropped. I can now run more than 5km and cycle more than 50km without problem. Thank you for your amazing content and clear explanation. I'm now recommending your channel to everyone I know that have a problem like mine. Thank you
I am so glad I found this video. After horrible gallbladder attack and 10 large stones stuck in duct I developed pancreatitis and inflamed liver. I have been trying to eat clean, no junk food, no additives and take olive oil in the morning to keep the gallbladder working etc but wasn't sure exactly which foods or supplements are the best for detoxing the liver. Thank you
I started taking Citicoline on a recommendation for treatment of a Traumatic Brain Injury. I started losing fatty weight from the mid section. My body seemed to start focusing on the extra fat so much I started losing my appetite and am doing intermittent fasting without trying. Then I ran across some of your videos which explained why. Good stuff here, Thanks!
This is one of the best videos I have watched on the subject! I am so impressed with the way Dr Ekberg explains things! Can listen to him all day everyday!! Thanks a lot Dr!!!
I think most of us have had a doctor like the one who criticised you. My GP insists my 'flat feet' are causing tendonitis in my achilles ... he had no comment on the tendonitis around my other joints which is why I'm here, learning all I can about reducing inflamation and fixing myself :) Thank you Dr Ekberg!
Thank You so much Sharon Claridge for becoming a member and supporting the channel 🙏. Your contribution allows me to continue making this channel a health resource available to millions and hopefully billions of people. Thanks to that distinguished loyalty badge next to your name 😄, I can easily recognize you and I will pay extra attention to your questions and comments. Best of luck on your journey to reduce inflammation and restoring health.
I develop tendonitis from fluid retention, esp. if I take certain antibiotics. When I control the fluid retention, the tendonitis goes away. Perhaps you should be looking at things that would make you retain fluids. In my case it’s CHF, but it could be kidney or liver problems just as easily…
Hey, Doc. I'm glad you did not go to medical school with him. You are such a pro at what you do, timely and detailed. I really like listening to your teaching. Continue the good work. Thank you.

Dear Dr. Ekberg, this is one of the best explanations (if not the best) on liver detox. If I where a biology teacher I'd make my pupils watch all your videos for learning - not for school but for their healthy lifes. In addition (I am from Germany), I would make them listen to your great pronounciation and intonation of the single words and whole sentences - so, a great English lesson for free. Thanks so much for sharing all that knowledge with us!
This is the first time ever I’ve seen someone address a criticism. Well it says a lot for this speaker. He is confident enough to confront the criticism.
Your videos are life changing. I never would know this kind of information. I've been watching your videos like crazy the past few weeks. I gained 60 pounds during covid and was struggling to lose any weight for the last eight months until I saw your video about fasting and eating once a day. I've only been eating dinner everyday for two weeks with either a salmon filet or steak and I've already lost 12 pounds. Thank you so much for your videos!
Thank you @stevewhalen6973 for letting me know. I really appreciate the feedback. You are one of the most consistent viewers/supporters I have ever seen. I hope that your studying is translating into magnificent health. Thanks for watching.😄
I learn so much from you. Love how detailed you’re about the functions of the the organs. What happens when the gol bladder has been removed in a person?
I've been watching a lot of your videos lately. I had started turning around my diet then I found your channel. It has been very informative. I am trying to figure out exactly what is wrong with my gut system. Somewhere between the liver and rectum, something is not right. I'm hoping with your expertise, I can figure it out! Keep that knowledge coming!
Thorough and comprehensive, much appreciated! Have fatty liver issues, your presentation prompted me to finally take action. Thank you so much for your no nonsense, practical and logical approach. The facts you present expose the modern medical model for what it truly is. So glad I've finally found a great holistic Doc!

Good job at debunking the debunker, doc. Even if you are not a medical doctor, your concise presentation is less nebulous than what a lot of professional doctors try in patronizing their patient with their self importance. Liked the way you clear up the 'contispation' with logic and factually correlating information.

My short sightedness has completely reversed on keto and IF and I do mean completely. In Australia the leading cause of blindness in adults is T2 diabetes. So it is no surprise that controlling insulin and reversing insulin resistance and diabetes improves eyesight among many many other metabolic diseases.
The sad part of any medical student or alumni insulting you is that they are in the wrong field if they do not have the ability to learn how the body is always changing each day so there is always new information to learn every single day. How can we trust a doctor out there if they refuse to accept how the body actually works? That question is what the person in charge of people's medical diagnosis should care about first. I wish they would listen to you by watching all of your videos to help them do more research based on today's reality. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for providing so many details that help actually learn what is really going on inside the human body.
Dr. Ekberg, Love your pace. Thank you for all you do to educate us. Questions: 1) Will beets or wheat germ throw us out of ketosis? 2) Can we use nutritional yeast in cooking, such as stews and sauces without losing its nutritional value, or should it just be added at the end of cooking? What are optimal ways of having nutritional yeast to get the most nutrition out of it? Ditto for wheat germ. 3) Can one add nutritional yest or wheat germ to water or tea between meals without interrupting intermittent fasting? 4) How much nutritional yeast and wheat germ should we have daily?
Fantastic advice on this. Thank you for breaking it down so effortlesslyand making it easy to understand. You are amazing. Thank you for all you do to help us be healthy. You are so appreciated.
I have been watching your videos and have been greatly inspired over the last 10 weeks. My blood work is now PERFECT! You are a blessing Dr. Sten! Thank you so much for caring and posting such truthful and educating videos. Lord bless you!!
My mom doesn't have a gall bladder or thyroid. She's having a lot of troubles. Just trying to help her figure out what her diet should consist of. Is there a video for that?
Thanks for this video. You're very good at breaking down the concepts so we can understand the whole picture. Not many people do that well. I wish these videos could be translated in Korean because my old Korean parents keep doing self sabotaging things, thinking they are doing these things for their health. They just won't listen to me, and unfortunately I'm not fluent in Korean.

Med schools aren't always the place where future drs learn the essentials of nutrition. I have a son going through med school. After the first two years of book learning mainly, he and his classmates were tested ( Step one), a major test for all of them. He prepared well according to what he learned, but he was shocked by how much they were tested about drugs instead of knowledge on diseases. Some investigation, they found that drug companies have a huge LEG in testing medical school students. Making them pill pushers, starting early. Thank God most of them are thinking human beings.
So he was an oncologist? If people change and eat well, or detox, his patient load goes down. It's sick care, chemical management of sick people. This Dr is well care, totally different field of medicine.
This guy really helps dummies like me to understand the information I have been looking for, he gives a step by step guide on what to do in good concise English,
I was in the hospital this July, diagnosed with fatty liver. I took it serious, dropped 20- lbs. by giving up high carbs, minimal fat and no alcohol. Last week, 5 months later, my blood test say I have no more fatty liver. I am 77, so never give up.
Hi what were your foods
Min fat ??
Good for you. So many people in your position would just carry on with the same diet and expect a magic pill. Your story is so important because it is a true testimony that you can change your health condition. So absolute kudos to you and thank you for sharing. I hope you are still doing great as this post was from over 1 year ago.

HI Sten.. I'm a 56 year old Australian women. I have spent my entire life believing and grew up with "fat is EVIL" . I have had a weight problem all my life..i found you about 8 weeks ago and you have changed my life. I have lost 12kgs and feel great..I have learnt so from your incredibly wonderful channel. You put everything together so clearly. Love your work! What an amazing gift you give. Thank you so much.😁
You go girl! Be your own health advocate because there is a conspiracy between government, the big food industry and big Pharma to make us sick and to not cure our illnesses caused by food but to “maintain” our sickness and doctors are a part of it through ignorance or choice.
Stop the sugar completely! Stop “vegetable” oils! Use good fats/oils! Walk 30 minutes (minimum) five days a week (minimum). Eat organic and no GMO’s! More vegetables, less dairy unless it is Greek Yogurt and certain quality cheese. NO reduced fat or skimmed products... We can be the masters of or health if we educate ourselves and refuse to buy into the propaganda of big businesses and our governments.
What Gordon said.
@@GordonWaiteJr there is NO CONSPIRACY, there is only ignorance or superficial knowledge... and the fact that the BODY is yours, so you should take care of it, not your government or some drug company
Lol. You were fat because you ate too much. It's that simple.

@@saltrock9642 Let me correct you, going Keto is not "detox". You're only correcting the environment of your organs to a way that allows proper function (which includes "detox" to begin with). What you're saying is that your condition was reversible through life style changes, which is something medical science has not opposed ever in my career.
@@drekberg Hi. Are you familiar with Cushings? I'm sure you are, but I thought I'd ask anyways. I need help!

You are welcome Betchie Harrison. It was my pleasure 😄
If animal products are so rebuilding why are huge animals vegan? And check out all the male vegan bodybuilders.
@@kathryngannon485 Please send some links to healthy centenarians who are vegans. (And have been for most of their life) I haven't found any yet.
@@kathryngannon485 Which animals? Animals have different physiology to humans in any case
@@kathryngannon485 ok...I think you have to compare the two. Maybe the vegan bodybuilders are good looking, but the others are not good, they are fantastic! By the way...which animals or huge animals are vegan? The slow ones! Maybe they are huge, like elephants or giraffes or hippos right? Show me just one fast vegan animal!? If you compare their body and how much they are moving, and yours and how much you move, you need much more strength. It is your choice to be vegan, and we don’t have problem with that, especially if you’re vegan because of ethnic, but don’t do that because of your health. If you’re vegan, you have to add a bunch of stuff with food supplements. And that is a fact. Remember...the golden middle is the best in everything, and always! The fanaticism is never good. That is my opinion. Have a nice week everybody 😊
You are a gift to all people who want to take control of their health, and not rely on their GP's who for the most part are pretty clueless when they dish out advice. This Doctor is a such a natural teacher and so easy to learn from. I am blessed to have stumbled on this podcasts. Thanks a million for the selfless work that you do. Thank you thank you thank you.
It’s unbelievable how much I am learning from you, I have fatty liver disease, swollen spleen, 3 different Autoimmune diseases and obesity to overcome. I’m making great progress thanks to you and some others. Thank You! I pray God’s richest blessings over you and your family!

Highly recommend you Dr. Jason Fung and his book "Complete guide to fasting". It will help you to understand fasting (which has nothing to do with starving), the sugar addiction and how to fast, without struggling. It's not the food but the fasting that will cure you (as it did it for me). Good luck and stay strong.

Grant,
You might also consider a high quality ORGANIC olive oil. (To make sure it has not been contaminated by the manufacturer with low grade, unhealthy inflammatory causing seed oils, place it in the refrigerator for the first few days. If it solidifies, it is pure olive oil. If it remains in a liquid form, return it to your store. Once the olive oil passes your experiment, be sure to keep it at room temp.) If you prefer, you don't have to sprinkle it on your food. Take it by the tablespoon at least twice a day. So many healthy benefits, and it will also help keep you regular.

Hi Dr. Sten, Im a nurse, so I’m a medical knowledge junkie. I can’t ever get enough health knowledge cuz it’s so empowering! I absolutely love your videos. I used to only listen to Dr. Berg, then I found you, so now I only listen to you. Dr. Berg & Dr. Fung. But you have the most comprehensive information & you look so healthy.

I can remember listening to my parents and grandparents talking about the healings that could come from drinking and bathing in sulphur water. Being in TN, there are a lot of sulphur springs and many had well water that contained sulphur. Before all the medications and medical treatments, sick people were often sent to places in the country for the exposure to the fresh air and the sulphur and mineral springs. There were even hotels built in these areas for people to come to for health benefits. My mother was born in 1934. She was a sickly child. Her doctor told my grandmother to send her to her uncles farm to stay for a while. They had sulphur well water. So she spent several months living on the farm with her grandparents and uncle. She quickly got better and completely healed from all her symptoms. Including being prone to getting pneumonia. Which back then, could be very hard to survive. Especially for children.
So true as a Jamaican, I know how beneficial soaking in the natural mineral spring is to the body it has helped me a lot
Sulphur well water results when you drill into a coal seam.
There are many sulphur natural water springs in Europe where I grew up. I never understood why they provide healthy benefts .. now it is very clear
Love this story. Thanks for sharing.
Now it's more complicated because the big corporations have deliberately poisoned almost all of our US waterways. The latest one being the dioxin explosion from Norfolk Southern train derailment which poisoned the river nearby which feeds into other waters.
There's an ex employee of an oil company who became a whistleblower for how oil companies would dump and hide their waste and chemicals into US waterways. His name is John Bolenbaugh.
You are the only person I've ever heard speak in specific terms about the healing power of sulphur. Fascinating. Thank you for sharing your mother's story. Unforgettable.

Hi Dr Sten, Ive been on keto for 5 months now. Im so excited....at last my eyes are clear and white and the excess fluid around them has gone. Not only have I lost weight but I look and feel so much healthier! Thanks so much for the channel. I've found it to be a great help.
I've watched Dr. Ekberg's videos for less than a month and I've learned so much about how to eat healthy. I read a good book before about whole foods, but there're a lot of things that even a good book can't do. Dr. Ekberg's presentation and explanation is superb, and I've already felt a difference in my body. I don't have cravings (esp. for a bowl of cereal) at night any more and my stomach is not feeling bloated anymore. To put it simply, the videos just make sense! Thank you Dr. Ekberg!

January 2021: ultrasound scan abdominals. No fatty liver, no cysts.
My doc was flabbergasted, no more diabetic and healthy liver. She never saw that before.
Congratulations! That's awesome. Did your doctor understand what you'd done to resolve the liver issues?
Thank you annie pette for sharing your story. That is amazing, but even though it is unheard of in the allopathic community it happens on a regular basis for people who learn how to eat real food. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄

It's two Berges!! One just has EK also. 😂
Unfortunately, medical schools produce a narrow minded, aloof "cast"... they tend to think they have all the knowledge once for all leaving university. When I went to see my doctor and told him that I suspected that I had insulin resistance and fatty liver, I heard: are you an alcoholic? If not it's just your old age"(I'm 60) And since I googled the probable cause of my problems, I could google the treatment. So I did. 2 years of Keto and IF= I'm slimmer, healthier and happier. Thank you Dr Ekberg♥️
Their real job is only diagnosis and safely prescribingmedicine, they don't really know anything but symptoms. There is no point to go to them for health only for surgery or medicine.

Agnes Strzykowska - didn't know 60 was old age. See, this is why I never go to a mainstream doctor. They know nothing. So thankful for real doctors like Dr. Eckberg. Congrats on reaching your health goals!
I laughed out loud at your response that the "feeling was mutual". Honestly I have watched many of your videos and will continue to because your explanations are thoughtfully presented and the message in all of them that we can control vital functions of our body to help and heal ourselves is a very positive and motivating one. A very sincere thank you!

One thing to remember is doctors have been indoctrinated (brainwashed) to the point that they are totally incapable of any rational independent thinking. They just know what they have learned and are incapable of ever admitting that anything they have learned could and is totally wrong.

Finally, all the misinformation is debunked. I have never watched a video or read a book that explained the intricate workings of the body and how to care for it in such a thorough and easy to understand way. Thank you Dr. Ekberg, your videos are a game changer, I have learned so much, you are a life saver, a true healer.
Who else is in love with this man? Seriously though these videos are amazing and when it doesn't sink in the first time you can keep going back until it does. Knowing the how and the why is much more motivating than just being told what to do. Can you let me know if you've done any videos or segments in others that explain Carbohydrates on nutritional labels please? I live in the UK so when Carbohydrates are presented on food labels it will give the number of carbs in grams ie 45.5g then it will say 'of which sugars' 3.8g. Does that mean sugar that has been added?
no sugars means glucose and fructose, the ones that give high dopamine response and they are a type off carbohydrate. It doesn't mean they are added but they can be ofcourse.
Also pls don't follow all the advice this guy gives he's not a doctor and you should consult an actual proffesional if you have a problem.
Livers don't need detoxing and him actually making fun of an actual doctor for exposing him is vile.
Getting off foods with labels should be a priority imho

@@mayastic9570 A doctor is a doctor. He can be holistic, he can be neurologist, cardiologist, pediatrician, but he can be holistic. Listening what dr Ekberg says, doesn't make me feel he lies.

I understood I had liver problems when I realized my bile ducts were blocked (jaundice and chalk colored stools were a big hint, pain was minimal but persistent). Both of them. I read, I learned, I kept learning and finally decided to "cleanse" my liver, change my diet and do all that I could to resolve this issue of fatty liver disease. It took a full year before I began to get the hang of it and in that time I did a lot of "cleanses" and passed a lot of congealed bile but no stones. Enough bile to fill a 2 gallon bucket (a lifetime of poor diet habits). Only after I stopped passing bile was I able to pass stones. Someone described the liver as "the other brain." I decided that I wanted to hang on to my gallbladder. That wakeup call started a learning, doing and healing process that I'm still in today. Keto is the next part of the journey and I'll be paying attention to my liver as well.
Big thank you! Probably the best educational video I saw so far. My mother desperately needs this information because doctors who have enough capacity to accept new patients are hard to find right now. - I'm glad I found you.
Completely agree and who ever left the comment is not a critical thinker. Thank you x 10 for all you share. Love your channel and appreciate all the time and energy in helping educate people and hopefully help people to think about their choices and giving them power in those choices.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg! This was an outstanding video. You are an "outstanding" resource of information that gives us the insight that most medical doctors don't have or give.
Your work is "greatly" appreciated.
As a biology major I love your approach and information . It goes right into my understanding and adds specific info .! YOU ARE AWESOME !
I recently began to research why my diabetes is still roaring like a beast, it's my liver. I haven't paid any attention to the liver, and I also am aware of what that meant for my doctor not really giving me the breakdown on why I'm still here in this place. Presently I'm seeking natural ways to combat diabetes because I'm tired of dealing with it. I've began an exercise routine daily, despite our lockdown, and since I've ran into your teachings, I know I will begin to see results. Thanks❤
Good for you!

*Some real quick tips:*
- *Exercising regularly* is a great way to detox your body, and can help flush out toxins in the process! Stay away from sedentary activities like watching TV for hours on end or long stretches of sitting at work - you may not realize it but those things are slowly killing your liver!
- *Reduce sugar intake*
_Hope it helps!_
Dear Dr Ekberg, I found your channel by accident. I knew previously what keto diet was but I was a bit apprehensive to start it. When I weighed myself at the end of July, I scared myself from the number. It was 126kg - more than 250lbs. I said to myself enough is enough. I started exercising more (cycling and running) eating healthier (more fat,proteins and low carb vegetables), and overtime I reduced the carbs so much that I didn't feel the urge to eat bread, sweets, pasta etc. Until today I managed to shed almost 16kg (35lbs). After I found your channel I found out that I was doing all the right stuff. I'm feeling so much better. Cholesterol level dropped, blood pressure dropped. I can now run more than 5km and cycle more than 50km without problem. Thank you for your amazing content and clear explanation. I'm now recommending your channel to everyone I know that have a problem like mine. Thank you
I am so glad I found this video. After horrible gallbladder attack and 10 large stones stuck in duct I developed pancreatitis and inflamed liver.
I have been trying to eat clean, no junk food, no additives and take olive oil in the morning to keep the gallbladder working etc but wasn't sure
exactly which foods or supplements are the best for detoxing the liver. Thank you
I started taking Citicoline on a recommendation for treatment of a Traumatic Brain Injury. I started losing fatty weight from the mid section.

Good stuff here, Thanks!

This is one of the best videos I have watched on the subject! I am so impressed with the way Dr Ekberg explains things! Can listen to him all day everyday!! Thanks a lot Dr!!!
Excellent presentation. Really good stuff.
Thank you james osborne. I really appreciate your feedback. 😄
I think most of us have had a doctor like the one who criticised you. My GP insists my 'flat feet' are causing tendonitis in my achilles ... he had no comment on the tendonitis around my other joints which is why I'm here, learning all I can about reducing inflamation and fixing myself :) Thank you Dr Ekberg!
Thank You so much Sharon Claridge for becoming a member and supporting the channel 🙏. Your contribution allows me to continue making this channel a health resource available to millions and hopefully billions of people. Thanks to that distinguished loyalty badge next to your name 😄, I can easily recognize you and I will pay extra attention to your questions and comments. Best of luck on your journey to reduce inflammation and restoring health.
I develop tendonitis from fluid retention, esp. if I take certain antibiotics. When I control the fluid retention, the tendonitis goes away. Perhaps you should be looking at things that would make you retain fluids. In my case it’s CHF, but it could be kidney or liver problems just as easily…
I am practicing your teachings and now my husband who has been a type 2 diabetic for 30 years is now in. Normal range..I thank God for you knowledge.
Hey, Doc.
I'm glad you did not go to medical school with him. You are such a pro at what you do, timely and detailed. I really like listening to your teaching. Continue the good work.
Thank you.
Thank you Doc. I just got my results back from Ultrasound today and I have a starting non Alkohlic fatty liver. With your help and me doing one meal a Day and a different diet I hope I can turn it around.👍
How are you these days?

I feel you, I think I share what you're going through...I'm 55 plus I have gain belly fat around the middle since Covid I'm trying everything. Nothing is working. Now I'm trying to eat the right food, cutting out sugar, drinking more water, and walking...I've even thought about weight loss surgery as well. ..at this point, I'm afraid to eat anything because it goes right to my middle!!!
@@all4mePope hi dear how are you I really loved to read your rep'y is bought some organic apple cider I squeezed lemon put ice cube honey cfaggef cucumin organic and drink it then I put water in hot tub and did aqua exercice it is a sga dard tu.

Good job doctor, keep up the excellent efforts that are tremendously informative and helpful!
Thank you Mr. G Ahmed. I really appreciate your feedback. 😄
I have fatty liver disease and my Doctor never went over what to eat to help he just aid come back in 6 months and we'll keep monitoring it. Thanks Doctor.
Same here
I had one as well. Stop eating sugar. That fixed mine. Also take milk thistle.
Thank you John D S. That is unfortunately the sad model called health care. Fortunately you know better know. If we can get this channel to a couple of hundred million subs, maybe that will change.😄
@@drekberg I grew up getting three bags of candy a week drinking soda by the case and eating carbs as well as ice cream. I was always a skinny kid so nobody said I shouldn't. I was a cyclist up to age 40 and was never over weight so never worried about anything until I had a blood test. Now I've cut out most of it but sugar is an addiction that is hard to break. I'm trying. I actually notice a difference if I stray back to my old ways. Thanks Doctor.
I was just told eat good fats and avoid bad fats lol 😂, in an email 🤷🏻♀️
Amazing doctor, amazing advices!!! Thank you for helping us to distinguish what is wrong and what is right for our health!!!
Another BLESSING again for us♥️
Thank you very much Dr. Sten🙏🙏
Thank you lorna rosario. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad you liked it. The greatest compliment you can give is to help me help more people by sharing the videos. 😄
Dear Dr. Ekberg, this is one of the best explanations (if not the best) on liver detox.
If I where a biology teacher I'd make my pupils watch all your videos for learning - not for school but for their healthy lifes.
In addition (I am from Germany), I would make them listen to your great pronounciation and intonation of the single words and whole sentences - so, a great English lesson for free.
Thanks so much for sharing all that knowledge with us!
Totally agreed!!!
SOOO glad you called that UCLA "doctor" out! It is unbelievable how many "doctors" don't really know that much at all, except to issue prescriptions!
Such an awesome educator!!! Always teaches the why and how so we understand the workings.
I need this doc. Thank you for sharing!
You are welcome Kuradang World. It was my pleasure 😄
@@drekberg thank u and Happy new yr!
This is the first time ever I’ve seen someone address a criticism. Well it says a lot for this speaker. He is confident enough to confront the criticism.
I love your content
I'm MS patient
Your videos helped me a lot
Thanks
Keep it up
Thank you Mohamed Amin. I really appreciate your feedback. Congratulations on your progress. Keep it up.😄
@@drekberg 🌹
Your videos are life changing. I never would know this kind of information. I've been watching your videos like crazy the past few weeks. I gained 60 pounds during covid and was struggling to lose any weight for the last eight months until I saw your video about fasting and eating once a day. I've only been eating dinner everyday for two weeks with either a salmon filet or steak and I've already lost 12 pounds. Thank you so much for your videos!
Thanks! You're knowledge and understanding will always prevail 👍Biotransformation is one of the most important things I've learned from you.
Thank you @stevewhalen6973 for letting me know. I really appreciate the feedback. You are one of the most consistent viewers/supporters I have ever seen. I hope that your studying is translating into magnificent health. Thanks for watching.😄
I learn so much from you. Love how detailed you’re about the functions of the the organs. What happens when the gol bladder has been removed in a person?
Thank you Doctor that brought my college biology back! I was pre-diabetic and just started IF & low carb diet.
What did you eat? If ?
I've been watching a lot of your videos lately. I had started turning around my diet then I found your channel. It has been very informative. I am trying to figure out exactly what is wrong with my gut system. Somewhere between the liver and rectum, something is not right. I'm hoping with your expertise, I can figure it out! Keep that knowledge coming!
The 4 thumbs down on this video are from friends of that guy from UCLA
You mean him they call for a troll, the brainless dude with bad liver and even more bad comment skills?😁
Thank you Luis DeTomaso. LOL 😄
Crystal Quark haha. The troll is probably constipated too.
@@t.c.s.7724 lol…!!!
Bet he doesn't have any friends !!!
You are absolutely my favorite You Tube Doctor! Thanks for being there for me Dr. Ekberg!!
Thorough and comprehensive, much appreciated! Have fatty liver issues, your presentation prompted me to finally take action.
Thank you so much for your no nonsense, practical and logical approach. The facts you present expose the modern medical model for what it truly is. So glad I've finally found a great holistic Doc!
Dr. Ekberg, Thank you so much for educating us so well. We all truly can live better lives because of people like you, you are loved!!!
On the Positive side. Take it as inspiration Ang naging journey nya sa pag nenwgosyo. Hardship, persistence, patient, continuous learning, lakas Ng loob at trusting God and asking for guidance un Ang kanyang naging key to success... Makapag paturo nga Ng do's and don't sa pag nenegosyo sa kanya..
The body is designed to repair itself provided you know how to.
Excellent information Dr. Ekberg👍, thank you for sharing✌️
Thank you Rakesh Sharma. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad you liked it. The greatest compliment you can give is to help me help more people by sharing the videos. 😄
@@drekberg of course, that goes without saying Dr Ekberg, cheers👌
thank you so much for an understanding of low carb diet in a year have lost 40 pounds.
Thank you margaret flagor for sharing your story. That is great. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! 😄
Good job at debunking the debunker, doc. Even if you are not a medical doctor, your concise presentation is less nebulous than what a lot of professional doctors try in patronizing their patient with their self importance.
Liked the way you clear up the 'contispation' with logic and factually correlating information.
I have followed your videos on autophagy, it's excellent and I am proud to say that I have my vision improved significantly. Can you please make more videos on autophagy. Thanks
My short sightedness has completely reversed on keto and IF and I do mean completely. In Australia the leading cause of blindness in adults is T2 diabetes. So it is no surprise that controlling insulin and reversing insulin resistance and diabetes improves eyesight among many many other metabolic diseases.
Thank you Najah Yousif. I have been thinking about that. Probably coming soon. 😄
That's amazing Stephan C. Not only in Australia, but everywhere, T2D is the leading cause of blindness, kidney failure and amputations.
@@drekberg More videos on T2D please.
This one is one of your best ones in a while.
Thank you KJ Channel.😄
The sad part of any medical student or alumni insulting you is that they are in the wrong field if they do not have the ability to learn how the body is always changing each day so there is always new information to learn every single day. How can we trust a doctor out there if they refuse to accept how the body actually works? That question is what the person in charge of people's medical diagnosis should care about first. I wish they would listen to you by watching all of your videos to help them do more research based on today's reality. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for providing so many details that help actually learn what is really going on inside the human body.
Dr. Ekberg, Love your pace. Thank you for all you do to educate us.
Questions:
1) Will beets or wheat germ throw us out of ketosis?
2) Can we use nutritional yeast in cooking, such as stews and sauces without losing its nutritional value, or should it just be added at the end of cooking? What are optimal ways of having nutritional yeast to get the most nutrition out of it? Ditto for wheat germ.
3) Can one add nutritional yest or wheat germ to water or tea between meals without interrupting intermittent fasting?
4) How much nutritional yeast and wheat germ should we have daily?
Fantastic advice on this. Thank you for breaking it down so effortlesslyand making it easy to understand. You are amazing. Thank you for all you do to help us be healthy. You are so appreciated.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg. So informative.
I have been watching your videos and have been greatly inspired over the last 10 weeks. My blood work is now PERFECT! You are a blessing Dr. Sten! Thank you so much for caring and posting such truthful and educating videos. Lord bless you!!
Even a engine needs the exhaust filter cleaned or replaced every so often.
My mom doesn't have a gall bladder or thyroid. She's having a lot of troubles. Just trying to help her figure out what her diet should consist of. Is there a video for that?
Thanks for this video. You're very good at breaking down the concepts so we can understand the whole picture. Not many people do that well.
I wish these videos could be translated in Korean because my old Korean parents keep doing self sabotaging things, thinking they are doing these things for their health. They just won't listen to me, and unfortunately I'm not fluent in Korean.
“That feeling is entirely mutual” 🤣
Thank you Naomi Renee. I'm just sayin' 😄
great line 😂😂😂
Not to be an enabler of bad behavior, but I've always enjoyed your attack videos.
and said in the most calm and sophisticated way ever😁
@@drekberg Well done Doc
Started something just like this with NAC... my liver was in trouble due to drinking. Now it is perfect.
So...how does one obtain NAC these days? It was finally prescribed to treat a myriad of traumatic brain injury complications...with truly remarkable success. Now it's no longer legal to purchase...help?
Med schools aren't always the place where future drs learn the essentials of nutrition. I have a son going through med school. After the first two years of book learning mainly, he and his classmates were tested ( Step one), a major test for all of them. He prepared well according to what he learned, but he was shocked by how much they were tested about drugs instead of knowledge on diseases. Some investigation, they found that drug companies have a huge LEG in testing medical school students. Making them pill pushers, starting early. Thank God most of them are thinking human beings.
So he was an oncologist? If people change and eat well, or detox, his patient load goes down. It's sick care, chemical management of sick people. This Dr is well care, totally different field of medicine.
Legalized drug dealers is what they are training them to be.
Of course pharma pays and runs the schools
This guy really helps dummies like me to understand the information I have been looking for, he gives a step by step guide on what to do in good concise English,
